This is a great, simple toy for those lonely nights in bed. The price point makes this awesome for students who need a little help with their studies, and the loudness is not so much that your roommate will be disturbed from the kitchen. Definitely great for a girl on a budget. Personally, I keep it under my pillow and it's always there when I need it for a pick-me-up. In the mornings before class I'll indulge impulsively before going to lecture. It's powerful enough to use over my underwear on my clitoris so I can make my trips back to my place really quick.

The material is a smooth plastic with a metallic/pearly look to the paint color. Be warned that if you leave it somewhere cold, it will be cool to the touch! Personally, the smooth texture makes it great for insertion or sliding up and around externally.

It has a very traditional and simple design: good, basic girth and length. It's not "wow", but will suit those who are new to exploring themselves because it is not an intimidating size for a beginner. It really is your standard, cliche vibrator design, but that isn't a bad thing as it is not outlandish in any way.

The vibrations are steady and the controls are intuitive; it would be almost impossible to not know how to use this one. It leaves no mysteries to its control. The performance is good; the vibration is certainly strong enough for anyone and there are no 'empty' spots like some other vibrators where it isn't shaking at the very bottom or is weaker at the tip.

The New Impulse is very easy to care for and storage is not a problem. It fits easily into a knee-high sock and into my sock drawer to protect from snoopy room mates, or fits under my pillow for those impulsive times. It can be cleaned easily with an antibacterial wipe or soap and water.
