This vibe is best solo because of its long handle, although it is not impossible to use it during sex if you put yourself in the right position. The best way to use it is on the labia, as the vibrations are so strong that direct contact with your clit can be overwhelming. There are only 2 settings and the first setting is pretty darn strong. I rarely need to go up to the highest setting. This wand gets me off almost 100% of the time and when it gets me going, I have multiple orgasms. The Hitachi is not for those who cannot handle intense stimulation. Guys, don't think you can't use this toy for yourself! One of my male friends has given himself amazing orgasms just putting this toy on his perineum. Overall, I don't know what I would do without the Hitachi wand. It has given me many pleasant nights.

The material is plastic and can look cheap, but don't be fooled! The head of the vibe is smooth with little to no texture.

The toy is a bit big and you can't really travel with it. You need to make sure that you have an outlet next to your bed or you can't use it, though the cord is nice and long. The handle is long and can get in the way if you want to use it during sex.

There are 2 functions: deliciously strong and almost irritatingly intense unless you are the kind of person that likes high intense vibes. The controls are easy to use, as it's just a switch. If you're not careful, you can accidentally push the switch to the irritatingly intense setting.

I keep this by my bed at all times, but have to make sure that it's in the cabinet if someone is coming by, as it is so completely obviously a sex toy. It can be difficult to clean, as the plastic head portion is hard to get off for a good scrubbing and there are many crevices.

I love this toy, despite it's flaws because I need intense vibes to get off.
