The Joy Pad is NOT recommended as a controller for video games...but it is a very fun controller for your orgasms! Designed to stimulate the G-spot and clitoris at the same time, it is very dependent on your anatomy as to how well this will work for you. I did find that by placing the bulb in my G-spot area and then pushing down to make the shaft drop and flex--I was able to hit the clitoris with the upper motor area. This did not last too long because I have RA and it really added pressure to my hand joints.

Men, women and couples will have many hours of fun and stimulation with the Joy Pad. It can be sued anally--if you are careful to stop penetrating at the curved area. Testicles, external anal area and vaginal stimulations are possible with the dual motors. The power may be a bit too much at first, since the vibrations seem to really penetrate the area under the motors. Start low and work up to the ultimate goal.

This is a bit too flexible for massages, but does work very well for the neck, front and back of the shoulders, around the thighs and is a great arm/bicep massager. I had some serious arm pump and sore biceps after riding my dirtbike on a pro trail. I could barely move my arms the next day and as a joke, my hubby wrapped this over my arm and turned it on--about 15 minutes later, I was able to move my arm!

Made of 100% silicone, the Joy Pad has a safety rating of 10 on the material safety scale. This material is hypo-allergenic, antibacterial, body safe and can be sterilized since it is non-porous. Silicone goes through a volcanizing treatment to ensure the safety and non-porousness of the material. It is made in relatively small batches to ensure quality control and is used in many medical products.

The feel of the silicone against your skin is very plush, velvety and sensual. It is smooth, but has a decent drag--some water based lube is recommended to prevent irritation from friction. "Drag" is the amount of pull the material has on your skin. This definitely adds to the stimulation and experience but can be a bit much if there is no lubrication.

The large girth and very powerful vibrations from both motors may be a bit too much for most beginner users. I find the girth to be very intimidating until I am very warmed up and I have been using toys for about 6-7 years. There is no taste or smell to the material.

Designed as a very uniquely shaped Joystick--the Joy Pad is a larger vibrator. There are two motors, the first one is located in the bulge in the tip and the second one is inside the ridged area near the base. The ridges area is also the stopping point for all insertion--not that it should insert that deeply. It is a full 14 1/2" long when unstretched. The length from the tip to the center of the curve is 4 1/4" and from the center of the curve to the base is 5 1/8".

The diameter varies, starting at 1/4" at the end of the tip to 1 1/2" n the center of the first bulge. The shaft is 1" diameter to the ridged area. There are 4 diagonal ridges that are 1/4" deep. This brings the diameter up to a full 2".

The shape allows for dual stimulation of separate areas of your body. It is too long to stimulate both my G-spot and clitoris at the same time. However--I can make it work if I really move and flex it around. There are many other areas of stimulation and it is very satisfying when used against the clitoris.

This is not a discreet toy. Very obviously a sexual toy--the Joy Pad can be good for travel if stored in a good traveling case and placed in the bottom of your luggage.

Lightly twist the base about a quarter turn, add 4 AAA batteries, carefully line up and twist the base back on. Your Joy Pad is now wired for action! To turn on the vibrator, press the '+' button. This button will also add 4 more levels to the speed of all 10 vibrations patterns. To reduce the speed, press the '-' button. Changing the patterns is pretty easy, you can press the up button to access the other 9 levels and the down button will take you back to the previous patterns. To turn off the Joy Pad just press and hold the '-' button for about 3 seconds.

There are 5 levels of speed and 10 vibration patterns. The patterns are: 1.Steady vibration - 2.Alternating pulses...both motors - 3.Alternating. Short shaft pulse to double pulse, longer pulse on tip...both motors. -
4.Alternating. Three pulses in both motors, long pulse in tip...both motors. - 5.Double pulse in both motors...no alternating. - 6.One long, three short pulses in both motors...no alternating. - 7.Double long pulses to single pulse to double burst both motors together...no alternating. - 8.Alternating. Even pulses in shaft, four bursts to 1 long in tip...both motors. - 9.Very powerful, penetrating rumble in both motors...no alternating. - 10.Very high, fast vibrations in both motors...no alternating.

The Joy Pad is very quiet, even on the highest setting. This would be a good, powerful and rumble choice for everyone--even those in roommate situations.

Carefully wash the silicone shaft in warm, soapy water and rinse thoroughly. Let this air dry--it does catch a small amount of lint. Once it is dry, go back over this with a sterilizing toy cleaner, or carefully soak the pink area in a 10% bleach water solution for 10 minutes. Do NOT boil, place in the dishwasher or submerge in water.

Use only water based lube due to chemical reactions that could damage the silicone if other silicone or oil lubes are used. Deterioration or changes to the silicone finish will make this unsafe to use as a sexual toy. I store this in the original box, but you can also store is in a very large toy pouch, zip lock bag or other container. Keeping this separate from other items ensures that it will not get any discoloration, chemical reactions to the surface or get engulfed by softer materials that may melt.
