I hadn't used a jelly vibrator before my husband gave me the Jelly Flex Clitterific. Now I know why I never had much interest in them.

The Jelly Flex Clitterific is your typical semi-realistic jelly vibe. It flexes a little, so it moves nicely with your body, but not enough to bend it to get G-spot stimulation. The toy doesn't stay bent; it just wobbles a bit like Jell-O when you move it around. The dial base offers multi-speed vibrations, but the vibrations don't travel through the jelly well--a flaw that seems to be par of the course. The texture is smooth, even with the veins that are part of the realistic design. It smells and tastes like rubber, which is very much not my thing, but I know plenty of people who love that rubber smell.

The vibrations are at the base of the vibrator, near where the motor is located. It isn't that loud; you can't hear it though a door, but you could probably hear it under the covers if someone else is in the room. The vibrations are steady and constant, and there are no patterns.

The dimensions of this jelly vibe are actually nice and make it very easy to use. The full length of it is about 9" and only about 5" is insertable. The insertable part is only about 1 1/4" in diameter, making it easy to go in and is a comfortable size for most women. This would be a good toy for someone just starting out.

The one really nice feature with the Clittorific is the little tendrils that move when the vibrator is on. They will tickle your clit, and they are fun, but they don't make up for the fact that this jelly vibe doesn't vibrate as much as I would like. Oh well, live and learn. I won't be picking up another jelly vibe any time in the near future.

This doesn't have a flared base so don't use it anally. Only use water- or silicone-based lubes with your Clitterific, as oil-based lubes can break jelly down. If you are allergic to PVC (polyvinyl chloride), pass on this guy. Jelly toys can't be sterilized, so, don't put it in boiling water or in the dishwasher. The best way to wash it is, carefully, with warm water and antibacterial soap or commercial toy cleaner. It is not waterproof. If you are going to share, use a condom with it. One of the best ways to keep very porous materials, such as jelly, clean is to use a condom. Keep this in a cool, dry place away from other materials so that it will not melt. Also keep it in a clean place because this thing will collect lint like crazy. This toy takes two AA batteries.

I have finally tossed out my Jelly Flex Clitterific. It was only fair as a vibe. It was such a bitch to clean that I just was getting so sick of it.
