(Disclaimer: So far, I have only used this for solo play, as I prefer to test out all my toys by myself first before asking my partner to join in. I will post a follow-up review when the 2 of us have tried it together.)

I'm a little disappointed with the We-Vibe II so far. It looks classy and isn't intimidating, but it definitely is not as powerful as I would have liked. The very first time I tried it, I put the two ends together and held them against my clit which felt great. The second time, I inserted one end and left the other outside. I'm pretty petite, so I think the g-spot stimulator actually went right past the most sensitive areas of my vagina, but I could still feel it vibrating deeper inside me. The clit vibrator was, unfortunately, not strong enough for me. I need a lot of clitoral stimulation to orgasm and this was a little weak, even on the highest setting. However, with my partner both inside me and pressing his hips against mine, I could see the vibes feeling a lot stronger.

The material of the We-Vibe II was as expected, a little tacky but not sticky, and there is no weird smell to it. There are some ribbed surfaces on the flat parts meant to stimulate the g-spot and clit, but they aren't sharp and should be fine for both beginners and more serious toy users. The toy itself is very flexible and should conform to almost anyone's body shape.

I thought the shape of the We-Vibe II was really cool. It curves and is flexible enough to fit perfectly along the contours of a woman's pelvis. As I mentioned above, I'm pretty petite (5'4 and slender) and I think the "arms" of the toy are a little too long to hit me in just the right spots. The size of the two vibrating pads aren't intimidating and I think it should be fine for a beginner or more experienced user. A beginner might be worried about fitting the toy along with a dildo or partner's fingers/penis in her vagina all at once, but with some careful maneuvering everything will fit with no discomfort. I think the We-Vibe II should be fine for traveling, since the shape isn't that of a traditional vibrator. It does come with a silk pouch for storage.

As some of the other reviewers have mentioned, you will have to poke a hole in the head of the toy to be able to charge it, but this isn't a big deal. The controls are on that same surface and I find them a little hard to press when the toy is in use. There is just one button which controls the settings and turns the We-Vibe II off once you cycle through all of them. I definitely wish the vibrations were stronger or the vibe pattern and speed could be controlled separately. I prefer a continuous, steady vibration and there are only two options for that: low and high which is really more of a medium. Even on the highest setting, the toy isn't that loud and while I wouldn't use it with another person sleeping in the same room, it should be fine for apartment living.

The We-Vibe II is really easy to care for. Once you're done using it, just wash it off gently, dry it, and put it back in its silk pouch. Make sure you only use water-based lube with it! Especially if you plan to use it with another toy or a partner, be liberal with the lubricant on the insertable end.

The packaging the We-Vibe II came in was pretty basic, but the toy is contained in a clear plastic section, so make sure to hide it from young or prudish eyes. The silk pouch which comes with the toy is the perfect size for it. The instructions were pretty sparse, but I don't think the toy is very difficult to use.

All in all, I'm disappointed with the We-Vibe II. The vibrations aren't strong enough for solo play, but I will definitely write a follow-up review once I try it with my partner.
