What's that sound? A jet? A chainsaw? No - it's a vibrator!
For the right person or with the right accessories, the Hitachi could be amazing. With the exception of the case noise and the poorly isolated vibrations, it seems to be the most rugged of its kind on the market. I wouldn't recommend it to an apartment dweller with thin walls or anyone living in a dorm room. If you find your sweet spot, it's fantastic - otherwise, it's a great massager if not a sex toy.

Follow-up commentary
1 month after original review
After I wrote my prior review, my Hitachi died. That's right - I managed to kill a Hitachi in under a month. As it turns out, there's no overheat protection in the unit, and the instructions say not to use the wand for more than 30 minutes at a time. Note to self - if a sex toy comes with instructions, read them.
So, about a month after the first one died, I was at FetFest and one of the vendors was running a sale, so I decided to pick up a new Hitachi since it's rare to see them under $50. Bought it, took it home, tried it out.
Lessons learned - my first Hitachi was a bit of an outlier in terms of noise. The new one is still loud, but I'd lower the rating down at least one, if not two bees. I've noticed that it gets louder the closer it gets to the half-hour mark, but never gets as loud as the first unit.
The second lesson is that for guys, vibration-stimulus can have a "learning curve" to re-train the pleasure centers to recognize the stimulation as something to trigger orgasm. Once I learned some tricks, I was able to enjoy it much more.
So, after-the-fact, I'd raise my overall rating to 4 stars, and drop the bees to 3.5 - 4.0. It still is the hardest-hitting vibration toy I've run across to date, which is probably why even the new kids can't dethrone the old king. Until someone starts re-manufacturing the 1930's and 40's units, at least...
