The Nirvana is a waterproof vibrator from California Exotic Novelties and is part of the Couture Collection. It is a multi-speed/multi-function vibrator that can be switched between vibrating, pulsating, and escalating. There are a total of seven different combinations that can be obtained all with the push of a single button. Simple to operate, the controls consist of a power button and the mode select button. Both are easy to use and only require minimal pressure to operate. Pressing the power button will turn on the vibe and illuminate the mode button. The vibe will start once you press the mode button which starts out on the lowest vibration setting. Each press of the mode button will scroll the vibe through each level. The first three are low, medium, and high steady vibrations followed by an escalating vibration that is about three seconds in duration going from low to high and then repeating. Setting five is a pulse that is reminiscent of a 'come here' motion made with the index finger in duration and six is a faster variant of five. The last setting consists of three short pulses and a longer (about one second) pulse and then repeats. The mode button will flash in time with the pulse settings and is steady during the vibration settings.

The vibe is made of medical grade Japanese Silicone and is non-porous, phthalates-free, hypo-allergenic, latex-free, and odor-free when removed from the package. Being silicone in nature, only water based lubricants should be used with this vibe. Cleaning with mild soap and water or a before and after toy cleaner will work fine for cleaning the vibe. Silicone can also be boiled for three minutes to sterilize but you may be taking your chances on the controls by exposing them to that type of environment. The vibe uses two AA batteries and the battery cover is a little difficult to remove but that is because of the tight waterproof seal it provides once snapped closed.

Nirvana’s silky smooth texture, raised ridges, and unique tip make this a very effective and stimulating vibe. The ridges are curved in such a manner that they provide stimulation to the outer and inner lips and indirect clitoral stimulation depending on how far it is inserted. The tip has the shape of a finger, hence the index finger reference in the first paragraph, and provides excellent g-spot stimulation. The motor is quiet yet powerful and, regardless of the setting, the vibrations can be felt through the entire length of the vibrator. All of these features combined are a sure hit for Nirvana to rock your world and has earned a spot in our toy box rock and roll Drawer of Fame!
