As far as this toy is concerned, I could go either way. My favorite feature of this toy was its girth, about 5 inches around I do believe. As far as the toy's intended use goes, it comes with a little metal rod that goes up in to the dildo that is supposed to be turned to make this toy "squirm." I found that the toy doesn't squirm as well as I expected which could be in part because of the 10 inch length of the toy. Either way, my biggest use for the metal rod was that it kept the toy very rigid and prevented it from flopping around which was amazing for keeping it really deep inside of me. The thickness was just right to make a perfect fit inside and the "veins" were great for added feeling.

When I first got the squirmy rooter, it did have some sort of residue on it which needed to be washed off but the odor has still remained. The odor is not over powering and you do get used to it. I would not recommend using this toy without some sort of cover on it both because of something in the material that stings the vagina a bit and because of the fact that it is made of rubber. The toy will need to be cleaned before an after use, if left uncovered everything sticks to it so you pretty much always have to put a condom or something similar on the dildo. Taste is bitter. The grooves/veins give the toy a great feel, heightening the pleasure more.

I usually use this toy with anything that vibrates to put on my clit to really get me going since the toy on it's own doesn't quite get me there. Because of the length, if you can find something to attach the crank to it makes for a great toy to ride. (Just make sure you don't accidentally slip and fall down on to it, no I didn't do this, but I could presume it would probably hurt). Over all, this is an average toy, you have to get creative to get serious pleasure from it.

Again, this works best if you enjoy a nice thicker toy. Because of the length, the "rooting" action doesn't work particularly well. I prefer using this one simply as a dildo without twisting. Not good if you've never had sex or used a toy before due to its size.
