So, first off, you've gotta admit that this little guy is cute! It looks just like a real rubber duckie that we had in our baths as kids and, unless picked up, no one will ever be able to tell the difference. They have several different styles and kinds in the Rub My Duckie line (I have the junior travel size duck in just a normal yellow), and I've got to say that even if it wasn't for the uselessness of this toy, I'd be tempted to buy one in every style. There is a plain duckie, a pirate duckie, a pink Paris duckie (complete with feather boa!), and a bondage duckie. There are two sizes: regular and travel/junior size. The regular duckie is much larger with 3 speeds, whereas the junior duckie only has one. The regular duckie also has a different method of control than the travel size, so keep in mind that my review is for the travel size and I don't have personal experience with the regular one (although I've heard that the problems are consistent between the two sizes).

The unfortunate thing about the duckie is that it is quite obviously a toy better made for show and visual admiration than for getting off. There is only one speed and the controls are really inconveniently placed as a turn switch on the bottom of the toy. This makes sense, seeing as how the whole point is to make the toy inconspicuous and the inconvenience of the control is because it's located on the bottom where it can't be seen.

I have the travel size and it's pretty ineffective, but I can't imagine the larger size with 3 speeds is really any better. I'm not particularly sensitive, but I don't require super strong vibration either, and this toy just didn't do it for me. It might be better suited to beginners; it's also cute and might make the idea of using a vibrator a little less intimidating to someone who's never used one before. The vibration is centered around the beak and tail and this design just doesn't seem to work. Orgasming with this thing seems like more work than it's worth. The vibrations could/should be stronger (especially for how much noise it makes!) and the shape of a duck is sadly just not made to stimulate the female body - at least in my opinion.

Good side is that it's easily cleaned and batteries tend to last a while, but overall I just can't recommend it.
