So the Kissa, which is Russian and Finnish for cat, is the first toy put forth exclusively by EdenFantasys and hopefully not the last. It's a fantastic concept, the undisputed awesomeness of tempered glass combined with gentle to moderate vibration. Versatile and a masturbatoryy multitasker, it's great for eternal stimulation, such as against the labia, nipples, clit, or perineum area, it is not however recommended for anal insertion. It's currently offered in a lovely metallic rose color which incidentally matches a latex bra I own, but is far more lovely than plain old pink. To add a bit of honey to the pot, it comes with its own padded velveteen pouch.

It combines the two most popular “textures” achievable with glass toys, nubs and wrap around spirals. Being made of tempered glass it's fantastically hygienic, non-porous, hypo-allergenic, and phthalate free. 6 inches end to end 4 1/2 of that insertable, the circumference at its largest part was 5 inches. Its multispeed vibration has three levels controlled by a push-button switch. The lowest setting is a gentle rumble that is barely audible, the second is about 20% stronger and only slightly louder, the highest setting is fairly strong, about the same as the vibration on my iphone, and still relatively quiet as far as vibrators go. The vibration range is suitable for someone new to vibrators, powerful enough to get the job done without being overwhelming. It has a nice thick washer where the battery cap screws in, twice as thick as say a Cal-exotics vibrator, and is suitable for full submersion. The storage bag it comes with is a soft black velveteen with a drawstring and toggle closure and is wonderfully padded to protect your new toy.

The Kissa cleans easily with soap and water, or toy cleaner. It can be wiped with a 10% bleach solution or toy-wipes. Unfortunately because of its vibrator mechanism it can't be boiled and I highly doubt it's dishwasher safe and I'm not about to try it. I found a little extra care must be taken in cleaning between the nubs and close to the spiral wrap around.

Glass is wonderfully versatile since it retains temperatures it can be chilled or heated (gently!!!) for temperature play, with the obvious warning to not jump from temperature extremes(i.e. Hot to cold or visa versa) to prevent shocking the glass. Its smooth texture makes a little lube go a long way as well as being compatible with all lube types, oil, silicone, or water based. The glass also conducts the vibration through the entire toy which is fantastic.

Now the part of the review where I fear shunning....I didn't like it. I loved the idea of it, I adore glass toys, I lust after vibrators and this was the best of both worlds. I found the wrap around spiral quite enjoyable, BUT...I hated the nubs, I didn't like they way they felt externally and found the initial insertion, despite generous lube application rather painful. The lowest vibration level was a nice tease, the mid-level got me going and the highest level almost got me off, but I think the discomfort the nubs gave me prevented that. On the plus side, once it was in the bulbous head and the nubs kept it in, so when we used it vaginally for DP it didn't fall out, but it was too firm to be entirely comfortable. Additionally, in that situation when my hubby would thrust in and his bean-bag tapped the button on the bottom of the toy and would make the vibration stutter. I just didn't like the nubs, if the tip was smooth than I'd be in love with this toy, but alas. I think it's a fantastic toy with the potential to be awesome sauce for many persons, couples, etc. But it just didn't fly for us. If they make one with a smooth top I'll be all over it.

i've warmed up to this little kitty. I still don't really like it for internal, but it's a lot of fun externally. While personally I still don't like the nubs all that much, I love the fact it can go in the tub with me.
