Sorry, I couldn't help but make that pun. Seriously though, this little guy is simply adorable! There's something about the cartoonish banana shape that puts it somewhere between silly and erotic. Hey, anything that makes you smile in different ways is going to be good!

This toy arrived in typical fashion, in an unmarked envelope inside of which was the packaged toy. The box was sealed nicely and upon opening it I found the toy, the remote, a storage bag, a charging cable, and an extra battery for the remote. See, they thought of everything!

The silicone coating makes this toy soft and a little squishy. The thin part...is that the banana handle...is flexible with a small button built in at the tip.

The toy charges using an RCA style charger (the pin type that you plug in, not the magnetic type). The charging port was a little difficult to find at first, but glancing at the directions showed me where to look and it was a snap after that.

After charging, to turn the toy on you press and hold the tip of the narrow portion. This was a little tricky as I couldn't really tell when I was pushing on an actual button - there wasn't an obvious "click" - but I soon saw a glow from the toy, indicating it was powered up. To cycle through the settings you can either click on the same power button, or use the remote. Sometimes with toys like this the remotes are cheaply constructed however this one actually seems to work better than the button on the toy.

The vibrations in my hand were fairly strong, located primarily at the tip of the banana and the tip of the "handle" but you could definitely feel a rumble throughout the banana as well.

The Tropicana is designed to be a wearable toy, meaning the banana portion sits inside your vagina and the handle part rests against your clit. I have used other, similar toys in the past, some of which insert and some of which simply rest against the clit....panty vibes for example. This little guy is a little larger than most of the insertable ones, but the curves do allow you to squeeze against it without much fear of it falling it. However, I have to admit that I couldn't really get that thought out of my mind! The vibrations are strong...tickling the clit...squeezing around it...getting wetter....ooops! It never happened to me, but the thoughts were certainly there. Admittedly, I didn't wear it much more than around the house, which was still pleasurable, but I'll have to build my confidence before venturing out further with this guy inside me!

As I mentioned before, the vibrations are strong. Before long I found myself lying down, slipping this sweet banana out, and using it like a traditional bullet. It performed quite well and has certainly earned itself a place in the night stand for further use!
