Zini Seed's Design

I bought the Zini Seed because it was portable, and I heard many good things about it. The box is well-designed, although Zini could have used a standard (and smaller) box in order to keep costs down for the customer. I also had to work the lid off because the fit was so tight. Once I removed the lid, I found the Seed sitting beneath a protective cover.

I liked the black and purple color combination of the Seed. Also, I liked the way it fit in my hand. The silicone section has the same feel and quality as the other toys I have. I liked the size of the silicone tip, which is not much bigger than my index finger. The plastic felt durable. Changing vibration speeds and modes while using the Seed is not difficult. Overall, I feel that Zini designed this toy's shape very well.

As for the LED feature, I don't have a use for it unless I'm charging the Seed. You can turn the LED on or off by pressing the plus button.

Using the Seed

The Zini Seed comes with a fold-out instruction pamphlet and a multi-language user manual. Both contain easy to follow instructions. The pamphlet lists the controls used to turn the Seed on or off, adjust the speed, adjust the pulse mode, turn the display mode on or off and check the battery capacity level. This pamphlet is very helpful to have when you are first learning how to use the Seed. The user manual explains how to clean the toy, how to store it and how to charge it. It also contains a small troubleshooting section as well as a section on how to avoid infections and STDs. I would have liked to have seen an 800 number for their customer service instead of an international telephone number.

After scanning the pamphlet, I turned the Seed on. The vibration felt very strong in my hand. I didn't have time to test it out right away, so I placed it on my crotch area while clothed in light sweatpants and underwear. The vibration felt very good, although not strong. That evening, I showed the Seed to my husband, who placed it on his bare thigh. He said that he felt a weak vibration.

I tried it out the next morning. The vibration felt very strong in my hand, so strong that it started to numb my fingertips. However, when I placed the Seed directly on my clit, I felt more vibration in my fingers than the part that I was trying to stimulate. I tried pushing the tip harder and moving it around. That worked wonderfully.

Cleaning the Seed

Cleaning this toy is a simple process. You can either use a water-based toy cleaner or anti-bacterial soap with water.

After about a month of experimenting, I managed to give myself a good orgasm with the Seed. Then I bought another vibrator that had more power and a deep, rumbling quality that gave me multiple, intense orgasms.

The Seed sat in its box until a couple of days ago, when my favorite vibrator ran out of juice just as I was beginning my session. Thanks to the Seed, I found out where the hotspot is on my clit. However, I was so disappointed when I used it the other day. The vibration felt quite weak, and even though I applied the same level of pressure during the massage, all I could achieve was a tingling sensation. I came away from the session feeling disappointed and still horny.

That said, I would recommend the Seed for beginners who have yet to experiment with masturbation. The tip is a great way to discover where your hotspots are located.
