My first impression was that I absolutely love the packaging. Every other toy I have bought has had much more dull and basic packaging, typically with just its name and maybe a picture of the toy. Secret Affair is in a lovely lighter teal box with line art that makes the box one of the few I have kept. Secret Affair itself looks nice and neat when you first receive it, and it is well presented within the packaging. I do really like that it has a cap where I can put the vibrator in other places besides the box and not have to worry about germs getting on the part I use.

My first use took me a minute to get started. After charging it up, I actually had to google how to turn the vibrator on and find a video. The instruction manual didn’t say to twist it before using the touch controls. Luckily, that’s just a minor inconvenience. My first time was me testing out and exploring the different modes to see what all there is. I really like that there are four solid step-up modes rather than three with most vibrators because that lets me slowly increase the power I’m using. The pattern modes are also really nice, although I think Secret Affair really shines with the solid modes and the roller coaster modes. The other patterns seem a little weak and lackluster. I definitely came even my first time using this. It’s very powerful, but the number of modes allows you to pick just how powerful you want it to be.

My first impression range true. I’m really happy with my purchase of this toy, and it’s easily one of my favorites.
A single charge lasted me several sessions (probably adding up close to 2 hours or so). I’ve only ever added in some vibrating tittie cups during my times with the Secret Affair, and personally, that was a wonderful time (review on profile).
I haven’t ever used lube with this vibrator but if you do, use water-based lube. It’s easily cleaned by soap and water (I use baby soap). Definitely well worth getting, in my opinion.

The vibrations are definitely centered at the top, and the base has some vibration but not a lot. Definitely not enough to make your hand numb or feel weird.

Every single time I used Secret Affair, I came. Sometimes I even squirted. I like to slowly step up the solid modes on this toy and move it in circles in order to get the most stimulation, but this is a toy where you will have to find exactly what works best for you. The top is about a quarter to a half dollar size, so this doesn’t provide pinpoint vibrations if that is what you want.
