In a world of delicious vibrators, I didn't see how a silicone penis could do anything for me, but I've since learned the error of my ways. The Vibrating Champlette by Vixen Creations has made a convert out of me!

The Champlette is hands down, the most beautiful faux cock I've ever laid eyes on. Truthfully, it was the unique color of this toy that kept me looking at it online day after day before I decided to take the plunge (heh!) The Champlette has a gorgeous cobalt blue base color with a midnight purple, pearlescent marbled overlay that gives the entire dildo a deep purple, shimmery appearance.

As a beginner to dildo play, I found the Champlette to be unassuming and dare I say, friendly? It really could have a place in anyone's toy box. The gorgeous color would stand out amongst the usual pink and flesh toned toys. It is curved to hit the G spot and P spots. It has a large, flat, thick base that would make it harness compatible and very suitable for anal play. And, it's not too big or too small. The dildo measures 6.5 inches from base to tip and with 5.75 inches of the being insertable. It measures about one inch at the head and gradually increases in diameter until it reaches 1.75 inches at its widest point. While the length and girth might be a bit intimidating to beginners, I found it easy to work up to and pleasantly filling when completely inserted.

The Champlette is made of 100% silicone and needs to be used with water based lubes. It weighs in at just over a half pound (.85 oz) and has a good weighty feel in the hand. It would probably be heavier except for the hollow core that runs from the center of the base to 3.25 inches up the shaft (less silicone = lighter dildo). This is where the vibrating part comes in. The Champlette comes with a standard, one speed, one push to start or stop bullet that runs on 3 watch batteries (that are included!) The bullet isn't really anything special but it does have a long, nylon retrieval string and I like having the option to use it if I want. It isn't the quietest but would not be heard through a closed door or under blankets so it is safe for those in apartments or dorm living. The vibrations travel well through the silicone, just be sure to lube up the bullet so you can get it back out when you're done.

The Champlette is odorless and tasteless. It is also very firm. There is a little bit of give when you squeeze it but it is difficult to really press your thumb into. The exterior is very smooth and has no texture except for the lip of silicone that differentiates the head from the shaft and a 3 inch, slightly raised silicone rib that runs down the back of the dildo (it is not noticeable in use). The silicone does have a bit of drag but it holds onto lube well so you won't have to drown it to have a good time. I found the head easy to insert and thrust, and since it is rounded, there was no worry about brutalizing my cervix.

The Champlette came packaged in a clear plastic tube with the logo and care instructions on the front. Vixen Creations recommends cleaning the toy with soap and water or boiling it for three minutes. I don't see why toy cleaner wouldn't work just as well. They also recommend storing the Champlette in the tube so it maintains its' shape. This is also probably the best way to keep lint, pet hair, and other house smut from sticking to it. Unfortunately the Champlette is a bit of a dust whore. If you have a microfiber or lint free towel, I would recommend using that to wipe it dry before you store it, but even then, you'll probably still need to give it a healthy bath before you use it next.

If you've read my other reviews, then you know I'm on a quest for the Holy Grail--G spot orgasms. I didn't buy the Champlette thinking it would do anything for my G spot. Imagine my surprise when it quickly honed in and massaged the right places. I didn't even realize what was happening until I caught myself rocking with it and thinking, "Wow, now THAT feels good!" If you need something really firm to massage your G spot, this might not be the toy for you. I think that is my only complaint is that it is a great G warm up but I lost momentum with the flexibility and small size of the silicone head. But, I did find it really comfortable and easy to hold onto the base with my index finger in the bullet hole and my arm didn't get tired thrusting the tip. And, while I haven't gotten my O yet, the Champlette still feels really nice and I like having something to clench around when I do come.

I did not use this with my partner (he's not a dildo guy) so I cannot comment on using this toy with a partner. All I can say is I love this dildo. I will be using this often and I highly recommend it!
