Overall, the Superbe is a nice, simple vibrator. There are no frills, and no complications. It's certainly not your bells-and-whistles toy, but sometimes all you need is a little buzz to get you off. This makes it a very good choice for a first time vibrator, particularly if you're not interested in a vibrator for penetration.

I've never been a big fan of regular smooth plastic vibrators for clitoral stimulation (I usually prefer something with a little more texture), but this little toy is great for any number of spots on your body. I love using it for foreplay, particularly stimulating the nipples, the inner thighs, labia, and the feet. Because it's smooth it glides over skin easily, and with a little lube or massage oil it's positively divine. Because it's not waterproof, be careful not to overdo it with the liquids!

It's curved shape is great for when you do want to get right down to business and work your clit, and the rounded tip is nice for those of us who like to stimulate the opening of the vagina a bit. But by far my favorite surprise was when I discovered how superb it is for ass-play. Pressing just a bit on your asshole with it is indescribably wonderful. And because it's small, it's great to take with you on trips, and can double as a back massager! Or maybe just for a quick stop in the airplane restrooms...

As for the three levels of intensity, I found them a little weak. But then, I like my vibrators as powerful as jackhammers, which tend to be very loud. This little buzzer is very quiet, which inspired me to use it in some more... unconventional locations (great for a quickie at work!).

Cleaning it is quite easy, but I would recommend using wipes rather than soap and water, since there are lots of seams for water to get in, and you don't want to ruin it! Also, using wipes are much more sanitary and will keep you safe from mixing fluids etc.

I think those who are critical of this toy being for "beginners" is accurate. This was one of my first toys, and I hardly ever use it anymore. I remember loving it when I first got it, but my interests have since shifted. The Superbe is really only for external use. The tip is too big and awkwardly shaped for any kind of insertion (for me). This is very limiting because it only really feels good on the clitoris, not on the nipples or the asshole.
