The Butterfly Kiss is a typical rabbit-style vibrator, with a relatively small insertable portion. It has a rounded enlarged portion for g-spot stimulation, and a butterfly-shaped clitoral portion on the outside. This would be an OK first vibrator, though the material makes it less than ideal.

I don't have much good to say about the material. Although it feels OK, jelly materials clearly are not very sanitary, and even can be unsafe. It is a pain to have to worry about covering toys to know you are using them safely. This does have an odor, and using it without a cover actually does kind of transfer the odor to my body, which is not a good sign for the safety and quality of material. You can kind of feel the rough texture when washing it when compared to something like silicone or hard plastic.

No real complaints on how the material feels during use though. For a product like this that you will probably only be doing minimal in and out motion with, you don't really need a lot of rigidity.

I haven't used this with lube. I don't find it necessary, but I would go for water-based.

The size is definitely beginner friendly! The insertable part is pretty small - it ends around the g-spot, as intended. It's not going to do much for you if you also want a "full" feeling inside.

Not to say that it is too small. I have had some really great Os with this toy, as it was the only one I had for quite some time due to my budget constraints. It feels great, the butterfly shape is awesome and allows for some variation on the feel of the vibrations as you move it around to different parts (the antenna, wings, head).

This toy could probably be used for travel since it is not too big. It's loud enough that you wouldn't want to use it in a silent apartment while your roommate is studying, but definitely quiet enough to use it discreetly in the shower or with some (louder) music playing.

I don't really care for how it looks. I am not a big fan of cutesy designs on toys like the butterfly, but how it looks is pretty minor when compared to how it feels.

The vibrations go throughout the external and internal portions, but the internal area doesn't get them as strong. I've used this alone and with my boyfriend and it's great both ways. I have also used it in the shower, and...it hasn't stopped working (completely) yet, so I guess it is pretty waterproof.

This thing seems to go through batteries really fast for me. It seems like the longer I have it, the faster it goes through them. I'm sure I don't need to tell you that it is really, really disappointing when it starts going slower and slower just when you need it to hold its weight until it eventually stops and you're left frustrated. Not great.

It also only has 3 settings, which are easy to click through. No pulsations or anything, and after a few months, my middle setting stopped working. The first setting is too weak for me, so I basically just have one setting on it now. The third setting has a good amount of power, but I do miss having the choice!

Hm. I would say this toy is difficult to clean, because porous materials really never get fully clean. I wash with soap and water. I have not used lube, I don't find it necessary for a toy like this as it is small and I don't move it around too much.

Typical and pretty unimpressive packaging. Nothing you'd keep. I can't remember if there were instructions, but it is pretty straightforward. End twists off, batteries go in, push buttons to change settings.

Many good times. Many great orgasms. Also many nights of disappointment when this was my only vibrator and it would start to die out in the middle of use - but no vibrator is perfect. Maybe I just had some bad batteries.
