I honestly think for thirty some odd bucks you can get a fantastic starter toy, a wonderful new toy to add to your growing collection, a fun time with something new, or for those who have tried everything, a great little fling! This toy has variety, functions well and is waterproof. Also it is PURPLE!
The Reflections Peace is a good little vibrator with some sensory variety. The swirled ridges provide a little extra oomph while the vibrations are cycle-able, the more you click it the more intense the vibrations get. It is not intended for anal play, as there is no flange to prevent the toy from 'slipping in' too far, so if you want to venture there keep that lube under control. That being said, the toy is waterproof. After inspecting the seal and the button to turn the vibe on and off, I was impressed that it felt rather well made and solidly built. So many of these 'novelty toys' are made so cheaply. Best I think for vaginal, clit play but surely you could massage other areas if you wanted to.
One of the best features is that even if you have others sleeping on the other side of the room - this toy is RATHER quiet while inside you. Might be a good toy option for those who share close quarters with roomies and need to wait for 'lights out' to enjoy a little self play time. Keep in mind it's easy to get it so slick you can't keep a firm grip on it though. This toy is made of glass, so if you wanted to toy around with warmth or cooler temperatures you will be excited to know it can handle it. I would suggest however, using a bowl of water to help you get the toy to temperatures desired. Make certain the seal is properly engaged by checking the end cap for the battery compartment first, but you get the idea there. I love cold glass, but this one can vibrate too!
I don't dig strong ridges or dips or bumps very well at all if you have read my past reviews, but while White Fox and I played around with this, (it was initially his review), I noticed that I didn't mind it nearly as much with this toy. It's on the small side and it may not have enough kick if you really love a STRONG vibe. But for someone who gets easily bothered by vibes that are too strong, with this toy I have options of gentle to strong vibrations at the re-click of a wonderful little button. No silly flat discs to spin around with wet hands, no pieces to twist in order to get it to stop - just the gentle press on the firm but squishy button and it rotates through the speeds/intensities (there are three), and then turns off after the third.
After a long dry spell - I was glad that White Fox grabbed a few toys to get us back into the exploratory mood again. I missed spending time with him and this is one toy I know we will be pulling out to play with again. I look forward to another change to fully play with this and get a better review written. But until then, I totally think this toy is worth the time; especially if you are either new to glass toys, new to vibrators, or even new to ridges and want to try something with a lot of variety in a smaller package. It isn't very huge and easily concealable even though it comes in a plastic box; if you need to store it among other toys like we do, you'll have to buy a pouch for this one. I recommend the phallix pouches that you can find here on EdenFantasys for around 10 bucks to protect your investment in this yummy little vibrator.
This toy is made solidly; the pieces fit together really well with a seal and button made of a soft material that I suspect is like a silicone rather than a rubber, though I would describe it as 'rubbery'. It had give, but it was firm. The end cap is made of metal. The shaft is a glass outer with an inner chamber for the vibrator/battery compartment.
Because it is glass this toy is very easy to keep clean, can be used for temperature play and can easily be stored next to other materials; though you would want to find a nice pouch to protect the glass. It is a high quality toy and for the price, I'm impressed with the quality.
There are ridges around the shaft that give it a less than 'slick' feel during use, though it is in a swirled pattern so you can play with it as a texture against your skin.
I may be considered new to sex toys by others and I may be considered advanced by newcomers - I would recommend the toy to just about anyone looking for something new and exciting or even for those who are curious about the materials used, the feel, their first vibe - or those sensitive to needing a QUIET vibrator.
The shape is designed on the basic shape of a penis, though the 'head' isn't necessarily larger than the shaft. It is a good size though unless your smaller or 'tighter' you aren't going to get that 'full' feeling. After some time without anything there this little toy felt larger when we first started but of average size when we were moving on to something else, but I wasn't disappointed by its size.
The toy is, I think, easy to hide; it's on the smaller side. It is suitable for travel, but again, you will want to purchase a protective pouch for this. I recommend the phallix pouches because they are extra plump and can handle the weight of the glass and metal toys especially when bumping around next to other toys, gear or in your luggage. You won't be worried about your toy surviving in the jostle.
I'm going to make this portion of the review simple.
There is a button. You click it a few times. It vibrates.
Clicks one through three give you varying speeds/intensities of vibrations and click four turns it off.
It is VERY simple in its operation.
Swirly Ridges come into play if you insert or turn the toy manually. Again, simple operation.
It is a glass toy, so warm water and soap will take care of things; just make sure to dry it well because of the metal cap at the end for the battery compartment. Check the seal for wear and tear and to ensure that it's sealing out water/lube well.
The box is pretty, but it's just a plastic box with print on it. Easy to read, but offers no real storage solution for the product unless you want to repack it. They also give no storage bag/pouch whatsoever. I would recommend wrapping this if giving it as a gift, as there is a plain view of the product inside it; again it's pretty but everyone can see what is being given! (Depending on the company that can be good or bad!) I don't see the box as being suitable for a storage solution; that makes it clunky and noisy to get at. Buy a pouch to store this in or a box of its own to keep near your bed that is at the very least a little padded.
I realize my review this time is rather functional in nature. I'm not fluffing up my text with stories of how we made love with it or how wonderful it made me feel. It was good, did what it said it would do, got me hot and wet for my partner, is a decent size and I liked it. I think you would too if you are looking for a new or different experience or are starting out.
Other reviewers are reporting that the vibe is weak at best; I hope they cycled through the speed/intensities as I found it worked great for my own needs. I don't need a horse kick down there, I don't like an extreme amount of buzzing and I did enjoy this.
One more time, BUY A POUCH to store this or a padded box is fine, but there is no real way to store this with what it comes in.
I can hear it now, "If you liked it so much, why didn't you tell us about your romantic experience with it?" Well quite frankly, I was just happy to get play time with my partner. I liked this, but I was WAY more interested in getting a good fuck from him than from a toy. Maybe when we've spent more time together
where I can pay more attention to this toy I'll write a sexier, hotter review. I did like this toy though and I wanted to share the aspects of it that pertain to 'whether or not I should get it'.
I think you should get it.
It's an awesome little toy that can be used around others and I was impressed with the low noise factor, the size is good, it's small enough to be discreet in my book, and I love that it's glass to boot. It has ridges if your curious and if your also curious about temperature play this can handle that as well. To me that is a LOT of variety in a little toy for under fifty bucks.
I was into my partner more than I was the toys we played with, so this portion of the review is sadly lacking. However, to combat this I will pull out the toy again and give it another sexier review with a lot more exploration as to how I responded to it.
So you can look forward to a sexy review in the future of this one!
Follow-up commentaryI still like it6 months after original review
I wasn't able to handle the ridges on this tonight, but I remembered liking it fairly well from the last excursion with this one. I like the button for the speeds, rather than .. other vibe control concepts..the color is really pretty, and you have the added feature of it being glass on the surface.
Great addition to your box, or good to start out with still.
It comes with no real way to store it, other than it's own display box. Get a bag or something for it - or keep it in the box I guess. I try to get rid of boxes, but this one sits in the box when I put it away. =/
I like it, and think it's worth a go for most everyone who is willing to experiment! Worth the money!
