The Anguilla Travel Vibe by Evolved is named after one of the Leeward Islands in the West Indies. And that is only one suggestion for the many places it could easily travel to. Evolved seems to have taken a modern twist on the pocket rocket and redesigned the old stand-by into a fun and exciting rival. This waterproof travel vibe is ideal for tucking in a pocket or small purse and is discreet enough not to be immediately recognized as a vibrator. Being completely waterproof and boasting two speeds, Anguilla is the ideal toy not only for vacations, but as a regular visitor to couple's play as well. Both men and women will enjoy the soft texture of the satin-smooth coating and soft waves that are prominent over the top of the vibe. Hold Anguilla in your hand and caress yourself or your lover for a full-body massage, or hold over the clit, nipples, scrotum, frenulum or perineum to enhance sex or masturbation. Suitable for players of every skill level, Anguilla's possible uses are limited only by the imagination.

The Anguilla has the look and feel of inflexible silicone, but is rigid ABS plastic with a smooth PU coating. It is latex-free, phthalates-free, and body safe. My Anguilla is bright fuchsia and gorgeous to look at, does not attract lint, and has no taste or smell. True to its description, the body of the toy feels satin-smooth and has little to no drag. When lubricated with either water-based or silicone-based lube, it becomes amazingly slick. Although it has no texture whatsoever, the Anguilla was designed with amazing bumps and ridges that add that "special something" to the experience. There is a small seam that runs the complete length of the toy, and while it is possible to feel it with your fingers it is not felt at all in use. Being made of a completely body-safe material and lacking harsh texture, the Anguilla vibe is suitable for all users.

Small and compact is the name of the game with this travel vibe. The entire toy is 4 1/4" long (3" insertable) and has a diameter of just over 1", which makes it the perfect size to tuck into a small purse or pocket. Rather than being stick straight, Anguilla boasts a gentle curve that helps it fit perfectly in the palm while still being at the perfect angle to stroke the clit.

The tip of Anguilla is gently rounded and slightly bulbous, while the shaft tapers very slightly and angles upwards into the base. Both the top and bottom feature completely different designs, which can make this feel like a different toy depending on how you use it. The bottom is flat and smooth and slightly rounded. This is perfect for stimulation on any part of the body. The top side features what looks like plush lips on an open mouth. This creates a unique feeling when rubbed over the clit or nipples, and even against the g-spot if yours is shallow enough.

With Anguilla, the entire base of the toy twists off rather than just the end. The base curves into the palm and has a wrapped window that encases the Evolved logo. Anguilla is an appropriate toy for users of all types of experience, especially beginners.

Anguilla has two speeds that are controlled by pressing the button on the bottom of the base. Although the button is small, it sticks out a fair bit and is very easy to find. Press once and Anguilla powers to its lowest level, press once again to power to a noticeably higher level, and the third time will power the unit off.

Anguilla is fairly quiet, and would not be heard through a closed door or over the sound of the shower (which, by the way, makes this a great toy for those like to play in the water or who share a locker room). Its vibrations rumble throughout the shaft, although they are more concentrated on the flat side, just past the tip. The vibes are mild-moderate in intensity and feel buzzy due to the high-frequency motor. This, combined with the velvety-coating, makes it perfect for teasing the clit and nipples, but may not be enough power-queens.

One AA battery is all it takes to power Anguilla, and when properly removed between uses, it is possible to get a couple hours of use off one battery. The battery compartment appears confusing to open, but by simply twisting the entire base the lid will screw off and there is a small paper inside that demonstrates which end the positive and negative ends of the battery should face. Inside the lid is a rubber O ring that makes Anguilla completely waterproof and submersible for fun in the tub or pool.

Although it looks like silicone, it is not, and has one important advantage; it is compatible with both water-based and silicone-based lubes! This is ideal because when you use this toy in the water you will want to use silicone-lube, as water-based lube will dissipate in the water.
Being water-proof, the toy itself is super easy to clean with soap and warm water or your favorite toy cleaner. Be sure to pay special attention to the grooves on the topside as they may collect lube.

The plastic cylinder it arrived in makes a perfect storage unit, or you may choose to purchase a small toy pouch separately. Always remove the one AA battery before storing to enhance battery-life. Anguilla can be kept in your favorite toy box with no need to separate from other toys.

Taking a cue from their Fleur de Lis vibes, Anguilla arrived in a small clear-plastic cylinder with a metal hanger on the top. The front features the Evolved logo, a flowered Hawaiian theme with the words Anguilla travel vibe and a couple of product highlights. On the back it features a complete list of product highlights and brief cleaning and battery instructions.

The cylinder opens on the bottom and the Anguilla is held upright via a form-fitted casing that holds the base of the toy. This is the ideal solution for storage, as it is small and compact, although care should be taken not to place heavy objects on the cylinder as it may cause the plastic to crack on the bottom where it is slightly weaker than at the top.

My personal opinion of this toy is that, while it is a fantastic and quality toy, its not quite right for me. The vibrations are not quite as strong or rumbly as I would prefer, and the shaft is a bit too short and small to stimulate me inside or reach my g-spot. That is why I think Anguilla is best suited for beginners and those who do not need more extreme size and power levels.
