I actually received this toy by accident, and it was an awesome surprise. My first impression before taking it out of the box was that it was adorable: that sparkly ring is very visually attractive against the black toy. Upon taking it out of the box, I turned the toy over in my hands, appreciating the textures. The top part is soft and squishy, while the bulb on the end is firm and graspable. I didn't detect any particular scent, even when lifting the toy to my face. That's a very good sign to me.

Now it was time to actually try Stevie out!

I tried a little external stimulation first, and have to admit I was disappointed. The top part of the toy wasn't firm enough to press against my clit in the way I prefer, and while the vibrations felt strong when holding the toy in my hands, they didn't pinpoint particular spots well. Of course, that wasn't what Stevie was designed for in the first place, but it's my habit to try everything externally first.

Once I applied a little bit of lube (water-based, because the shaft of this toy is made of silicone) and slid Stevie inside, I was quite pleased with the feel. The flexibility made it easy to nestle against my G-spot, and the vibrations were quite strong for a quiet battery-powered toy.

It was then that I discovered another awesome feature with Stevie's design: the round control knob on the base makes this toy a pleasure to play with. I found myself manipulating the base like an old-fashioned video game joystick, rocking it in every direction. The plastic was quite easy to hold onto, and every time I moved the base, the new angles and sensations created by the shaft were amazing. It made for a great long masturbatory session!

Next, I tested the waterproof quality by taking it into the shower with me, where Stevie continued to perform admirably.

In terms of staying power, I would suggest buying rechargeable batteries, because I did run down fresh batteries within one session. This is going to be a problem with any battery-powered toy, but since this toy uses AAA's, you could easily just use rechargeable batteries with it.

Overall, I give Stevie five stars, because for the intended purpose, it gets the job done and then some. I'm quite glad I got my hands on one!
