I myself think this toy is best for vaginal use. I absolutely love it. It prefer it on the highest speed, which is pretty intense. It is great at hitting my G-spot. I have only used this toy vaginally with my husband but it would also be great for some solo time. I would recommend only vaginal use but it can also be used anal; it will just need a little extra lube. The material it is made of (TPR/plastic) can cause a bit of friction, but if you are like me, you might like that. If going solo, I think a vibrating ring would go well with this toy. Why not add a little stimulation to your clit without needing an extra hand?

The information on the page says this is plastic; however, I would consider this more of a rubber. The texture is great. I think it feels like the real thing, honestly, and it is extremely soft. There was a bit of a smell to it, but it went away after the first use and it wasn't to the point that it was unbearable. As for the taste, I am not much for sucking on my toys, but for the review I did and I really did not like the taste at all. I would not suggest putting this toy in your mouth.

The design is just like a real penis. It is about the size of an average penis, so it is perfect if you are looking for something that feels like your man (if he is average). I myself like the size; it is not too big or too small. I would say this may be a toy for beginners more than advance users since there really is not a whole lot to it.

As for hiding this, if you have your own special "toy" box then it is perfect. However, it is not really very discreet for travel. I would not recommend it unless you just do not care. If you have a good size carrying case to stash it in, then I guess you could say it is suitable for travel and if you can hide it to travel with, I would recommend it.

The vibration control is located at the end of the dildo. It is just at the base where you slip in the batteries. It is pretty simple to use. I would much prefer it having a remote, but they do make similar ones that do have remotes. I honestly cannot feel much with it set on its lowest setting, but I much prefer all my toys to be set on the highest possible. The highest function is pretty intense for me. I absolutely love it. I honestly do not think it is very loud. There is a bit of noise, but nothing you really notice once you start getting in to the mood. It is waterproof, but I would make sure to screw the end on tightly and, if I were you, I would not submerge the end under water, just to be safe.

This is a very easy toy to clean. All you have to do is run some water over it and it is good as new, but I like to make sure it is really clean, so I wash mine with soap. I would recommend that you use part water, part bleach if you plan on sharing with some one else.

It is very easy to store. I just store it with in my "toy" box with the rest of my toys. As far as I can tell, there really is no special way to store this. As far as lube goes, I use just regular KY jelly; it is safe to use and I think it washes off much better with this toy than the rest of mine. I do not use water based lubes so I can't tell you if it is safe or not, but I would say it would not harm your toy at all.
