At first I really enjoyed this massager. It was inexpensive, very simple, easy to use, and a sensual addition to my life. However, it quickly lost its luster... and it's heat. When I first used this product, it got very hard when I first activated it, which made it very easy for this to glide across my skin with just a touch of lube or lotion. After a couple of uses though, it stopped getting as hard, and stayed sort of slushy inside. This caused it to have very bad drag across my skin, and also it did not apply as much pressure because of it's passiveness.

Along with losing some of its substance, the product stopped getting hot after maybe 3 or 4 uses. For me this was unacceptable, even if it was very inexpensive. Besides losing it's firmness, it also did not stay even remotely warm for a very long time. The first time I used it it was piping hot for over an hour, and the last time it was barely tepid for 20 minutes. I realize that this was not made to last forever, but I have seem similar products where people have gotten tons of uses out of them before they lose their properties.

The one thing I will say positively about this, is that now that I know how these sort of products work, I do not mind spending more money on a higher quality product, because I now know that I do enjoy this type of massager. When it DID work, this massager was very nice to use for just a simple massage, and also very sexy for a more steamy massage. Personally, I would recommend a similar product to almost anyone, but I would say do not be afraid to find and pay more for a better product.
