The Intense play veined vibrator's purpose, which it fills so well is to give the user orgasms. I have found many ways that it can be used in accomplishing that goal.

First of all, the only rigid spots are at the end of the toy where the control and batteries are and the semi-rigid end where the penis head and motor are. The rest is so bendable it can actually be bent in half while being used. Couple that with the fact that it is extra-long and I can have the vibrator reach all the way to the "a" spot then as it extends out of my vagina, it can be bent to get my clitoris too. It is doing double duty.

This is actually the second one I have had, not because the other one broke (the motor did run out months or maybe a year later). I used it when the motor didn't run and it is good that way too. While inside it feels so much like a penis.

I decided that I would like one that vibrated too.

There are many ways that it can be used. I like to use it with other toys also, either to give extra feeling or to make up for the fact that the other toy may be weak.

The material is TPR with a safety factor of 7. I just noticed a very slight smell when my nose was practically touching it. There is no taste. The feel is of material with a slight drag that a person would want to keep squeezing (it's very squeezable). It has ridges crisscrossing everywhere and that would add to the stimulation. None of these ridges are felt when inserted, but they may harbor germs. For this reason use a condom when sharing. Some of the toys may take on a cloudy appearance after a while. Mine haven't, however.

I see no reason why beginners and advanced users cannot enjoy this toy.

I like the design. In shape, most of it resembles a penis. Both of mine work very well. I love the size. The size might be more appropriate for advanced users, but only because they might think of different ways to experiment with it. It is pretty easy to hide but not suitable for travel.

It even took me a while to think and use this toy in different ways.

-The toy is 9" in length

-The circumference is 5"

-The head is 4-1/2"

-The shaft is almost 5"

I like the way the design is set up. It has all the controls at the end with the black plastic. The vibrations are located at the other end. I enjoy the feel of the toy while in me and I also love the power. On the highest setting it is very powerful.

I could not hear it behind a closed door.

Some may not like the way the controls are set up, one dial turns it on and it ascends in power, but to me it is convenient. One little thing that may not be so great is the tendency at times of the toy's cap turning some, therefore turning it off.

It is not waterproof.

To clean the vibrator is easy. I use an anti-bacterial soap and hot water. I store it with toys of the same material. It can also absorb some of the colors of other toys.

I do use water-based lube, as that is what I have. You might want to do a spot test with other types of lube to see how they act.

TPR does not do well in the heat, so traveling in a hot car might cause it to melt.

The toy is shrink wrapped with no instructions, yet easy to figure out as there are no complicated features to it.

It might LOOK better with an expensive box but that usually means complicated features. The simpleness of design is what drew me to this in the first place.

To me this toy, a simple low cost toy, has all the requirements I need. Power, long battery use, and can be used in a variety of ways...with other toys, doubled up on itself, etc.
