The Lia Dreamer by California Exotics Novelties is a basic small vaginal vibrator. Dreamer is designed for vaginal use and can be used for clitoral stimulation as well as nipple stimulation. It is not shaped well for g-spotting, and is not safe for anal use since it does not have a flared base. Due to its small size, the Dreamer would make a great beginner vibrator. This toy probably will not work well to use during sex, but will work for solo play or with a partner during foreplay.



It is small enough to fit in your hand.

The Lia Dreamer is made of silicone. Silicone rates a 10 on a scale of 1 to 10 (10 being the safest) for overall safety of the chemical properties and cleanliness of the material. Silicone is a food-grade material, is hypoallergenic, latex free, and is non-porous. The material retains heat very well, and repels bacteria. The Dreamer has no odor. The material of this toy is very smooth with a bulbous head with a ridge just below the head. It also has a matte finish, and has a slight grabby feel to it. A water-based lube is recommended for use with this vibrator. Do not use a silicone-based lube; silicone lubes will ruin a silicone toy. The Lia Dreamer is available in pink or blue.

The Dreamer is only 6 inches long with about 4 inches insertable. The circumference starts out at about 3 7/8 inches at the pointy-head end and tapers down to about 3 1/8 inches where the battery compartment starts. It has a very slight realistic look of a penis head with a ridge of foreskin just below the head. On the backside of the vibrator there is a slightly raised “bump” that is about 1 inch by 1 ¾ inches. There is a very faint seam down the front and back of the toy, but it cannot be felt during use. Since this vibrator is small I could not feel the bulbous head. A beginner may benefit more from the size of this toy than the advanced user. This vibrator is not very discreet; it is obvious what it is, but due to its small size it can be hid easily under a pillow. In addition, since it is small, it does travel well inside your purse or a small bag of pocket in your luggage.

The control panel is located at the plastic end of the vibrator and consists of two buttons: one for the on/off feature and the other for the 10 functions. The buttons are very easy to use and have a clicking sound when pressed. When the vibrator is turned on the buttons light up. This vibrator is very quiet; it most likely cannot be heard through a closed door and possibly not even through a blanket. I was talking to a friend on the phone and she could not hear the toy running. It uses only one AA battery. I have used this toy a few times now and I am still on the first battery. The 10 settings are: low, medium, high, a gradient burst, a couple intermittent patterns, several surging patterns, and a pulsating pattern. The vibrations of this toy are not very strong also making it an ideal beginner toy. There is an “O” ring sealing the battery compartment making this vibrator waterproof.

The Lia Dreamer is super easy to clean, especially since it is made of non-porous silicone and it is waterproof. You can use soap and water or your favorite toy cleaner; I use the free Eden toy wipes. Silicone can be boiled or washed in a dishwasher, but I do not recommend this type of cleaning with this toy since the battery compartment is not compatible with that type of cleaning. I never allow my toys to touch each other while storing because some materials have adverse reactions with other materials.

The Dreamer was packaged in a clear plastic box that is not discreet. Inside the box, the toy was lying in a plastic shell. The package also included an instruction leaflet. The leaflet shows how to use the buttons, how to install the battery, shows the different patterns and lists a few warnings. There is no warranty included on the leaflet. I suppose you could re-use the package for storage if you wanted to, but I feel it would not be practical.

I use this toy mostly for clitoral stimulation since it was a bit small for me to use vaginally. I prefer very strong vibrations and the Lia Dreamer is not quite as strong as I would have liked it to be, but it does perform well for its small size and very smooth texture. The Lia Dreamer will be added to my collection of toys.
