The Happy Valley Delight is probably not a dildo that will totally rock your world, but it is definitely a solid (no pun intended) performer, just without bells and whistles. It is of moderate proportions--5 ¾” insertable length and 1 ¼” diameter--so it is a great choice for the beginner.

I received the blue version of the dildo, and it is a lovely, dusky, metallic swirled teal color--very attractive. It is made of 100% silicone, so is very hygienic and can be sterilized by boiling, running through the dishwasher (top rack, no soap), or cleaned with a 10% bleach solution. This dildo also has quite a wide base, making it anal-friendly and harness compatible.

The dildo is not tapered much toward the top, which is the only problem I can see for beginners. It is not particularly bulbous, either, so it is easy enough to insert. The underside of the dildo is sculpted with very subtle undulations which are very gentle, but stimulate your insides quite nicely.

The Happy Valley Delight|Dildo by Happy Valley also comes with an insertable one-speed bullet for vibrations. I do not know if the bullet is more powerful than some (it runs on 3 watch batteries) or if the dildo is simply smaller than many others, but this bullet definitely puts out some strong vibrations that can be felt all the way to the tip. The bullet is quiet, but not silent.

The silicone is quite firm on this toy, which might help conduct the vibrations so well. It is still quite bendable, though, so you can move it to fit your curves. The girth of the dildo shaft just does not really have much give to it at all.

I think the Happy Valley Delight is an excellent dildo for beginners, those who like stronger vibrations, and those who intend to use it with a harness|A general overview of the most common harness styles on the market.
