This massager isn't specifically intended for sexual purposes... but oh man does it make an excellent vibrator! Like the Hitachi, it was created for use on other areas of the body to relieve tension, relax muscles, and...well, massage. It does a really great job at that but in my opinion, the best use for it is as a clitoral massager. It is very powerful! It's probably not a good idea to use directly on the clitoris if you do not have trouble with the Hitachi. However, on the higher setting you can use it through clothing. It still sends the vibrations deep, but they are more muffled. The Wahl is my go to vibrator when nothing else- even the Hitachi- will do the job. It is also my go to vibrator when my shoulders, neck, and back are hurting. The different attachments allow for a wide range of stimulation from pinpoint accuracy to wider rippled pleasure, this massager really has something for all of those who like the more powerful side of things. I never thought I would find a replacement for my beloved Hitachi, but the Wahl’s quieter motor and attachments may have just bumped it up to the top of my favorites list!

The Wahl is made of hard plastic and it is smooth to the touch. The attachments are made of the same type of plastic and they are also smooth to the touch. Both the Wahl and the attachments are Latex/Phthalates free. The base of the attachments are slightly flexible, just enough to get it on and off the unit without damaging it.
Each of the attachments features a slightly different shape. They all have the same texture, but the shapes provide different types of stimulation which I will discuss later in this review.
I noticed no noticeable odor when I opened the plastic it was wrapped in.

I like the design of the Wahl, it is comfortable to hold. Since it is angled, I don’t have to bend my wrist to hold it against my clitoris, neck, shoulders, and some parts of my back. I have carpal tunnel in my right wrist, so the ergonomic design of the Wahl is ideal. I don’t have to bend my wrist and my hand doesn’t go numb during use. The Wahl is heavy. It has a nice sturdy feel in my hands. Laying on my back, I can just position it on my clitoris and let gravity do its thing. I enjoy a good bit of pressure when I get into clitoral stimulation and this toy delivers that without a lot of effort on my part.

I consider this toy discreet because it does not look like a vibrator. If someone saw it plugged into the wall, I wouldn’t be embarrassed to explain that it is simply a shoulder massager. It doesn’t have any sort of markings or design that suggests it is anything other than a therapeutic massager. It is small enough to fit in a hide-a-vibe pillow or in a drawer. It isn’t as good for travel as some rechargeable models because of the cord.

Wow wow wow! That’s how I describe the Wahl. I’ve been addicted to my Hitachi for a long time now, and to find something that is possibly better? Boo-Yah! The Wahl has an easy to use control: It is a sliding mechanism. The first position is off, the second is low, and third is high. The low is very buzzy and I hate it for clitoral vibrations but I love it for a more topical massage of other areas of my body. I prefer a more deep, gyrating style of vibration for sexual purposes. The high function of the Wahl is just that. It is significantly deeper than the first speed. In fact, until I played with the Wahl, I had no clue that one toy could have two polar opposite styles of vibration. I was absolutely amazed. The second vibration is actually deeper than that of the Hitachi. It delivers a more pummeling style of vibration.

The toy comes with seven different heads for varied styles of vibrations. I didn’t believe that each head could change the way the vibrations were directed so completely, but they can! There’s a wedge style attachment, a ripple-y one, a bull’s-eye one, a cone style, a nubby one used for scalps, a flattened semi, cone one, and a pin-point one. My personal favorites are the wedge and the ripple-y one. The rest either don’t sit on my clitoris right or are too intense for my tastes. However, they are still really good on other parts of the body.

Compared to the Hitachi, this toy is extremely quiet. It is still fairly noisy, but use it under some covers and the roommates in the next room wouldn’t hear it at all.

This toy is not water proof! I clean the actual device by using toy cleaner wipes or anti-bacterial wipes. For the attachments, I use anti-bacterial soap and water. It's not the easiest to clean, but it isn't rocket science either.

It is pretty easy to store since it doesn't look like anything like a vibrator. It can be left on the night stand, or tucked inside the drawer. I keep the attachments in the original bag they came in because it is just the right size and resealable.

Because it is plastic, any lubricant can be used with it... although not much lube, if any, is needed since it is mainly an external massager.

The Wahl comes wrapped in plastic in an unimpressive, but functional box. It has the basics on the box. It serves its purpose.

I love this toy. I can't say that enough. A friend with similar tastes in vibrations suggested it to me, and BAM! I'm in love. It does its job quickly and effectively with or without the use of any other toys.
