The Silk Touch Egg Vibe is meant for clitoral orgasms. Since the toy is so small, it could be used sitting in a chair or on the couch. I always used it laying in bed. The only type of orgasm I have ever gotten from the toy was clitoral orgasms. Every time I used the toy, I got multiple orgasms.

Since the toy is very loud, it would not be good for you if a lot of people live with you. When I used this toy, my husband could hear it all the way into our living room. If you are trying to be discreet when masturbating and you worry about people hearing your toys, I would not recommend this toy. The toy's loudness might be a distraction to some masturbators. If you watch a porn movie or have music playing, it will help drown out the sound. I always watch porn on my iPod touch and have my ear buds plugged in which means I don't even hear the toy.

This toy is great for everyday solo masturbation, and it could work for couples too. Your partner could insert the toy into your vagina to help prepare you for intercourse. You can insert the toy into your vagina, but it won't go in very far like a dildo would. I think this toy is better for clitoral use than vaginal use.

I personally think it is better for solo use which is what I used it for. When using this toy for solo play, I always get very intense clitoral orgasms since I can control where I want the toy to go and how hard I want to press the toy on my clitoris. If you choose to use this for solo play or with your partner, make sure you have batteries for the next time you use the toy. This toy is a battery guzzler - especially if you have the toy set on the highest speed.

This toy is travel-friendly since you can unplug the toy from the control which makes the toy even more compact, and the toy would use up very little room in your suitcase.

I would not suggest using this toy for anal play. Due to the short length of the toy, I personally don't think it would be safe.

The Silk Touch Egg Vibe feels like it is made of silicone due to the smooth, soft, velvety feel even though it is made of plastic. The toy is nice and firm. It has a nice, soft feel, and it is rigid. The toy has a nice ribbed feeling. It's easy to hold in your hand while you are putting in the batteries due to the small size and the plastic velvet feel. The Silk Touch Egg Vibe has no odor to it all.

The control is shaped a lot like a computer mouse and fits in your hand. The control would still fit in your hand and be usable even if you have lubricant on your hands. There is a scroll wheel in the middle of the control which lets you slide the scroll wheel up for faster vibrations and down for slower vibrations. To change the type of vibrations, you push the silver button. The scroll wheel works just like a scroll wheel on a computer mouse.

I personally love the design of this toy. The design makes it easy for the toy to go into your vagina due to the short oval shape of the toy. Other than for looks, I haven't noticed the spirals on the toy having a functional use.

The controls remind me of a computer mouse. The control pack itself is about the size of my palm. It easily fits into the palm of your hand as well. It is a triangle shape with rounded corners instead of points.

The coiled cord is very stretchy and flexible. The cord is long enough to go into your vagina or onto your clitoris without the cord coming unplugged from the control pack. I think one reason the cord is so stretchy is because of the coils in the cord. Because of the coils, the cord does curl up on itself. Out of all of the corded toys I have, this cord is the stretchiest, most lengthy, and it is my favorite cord for those reasons. Most of the time I forgot there was even a cord.

There are six different vibrating functions. The functions are thrusting, teasing, turning, steady, and a combination. The thrusting vibration feels like it is going up and down just like a penis. The teasing vibration drives me crazy since it will vibrate every 2 seconds with a small pause in between each vibration. The turning vibration feels like it is going around and around. With each function, you can adjust the speed. The lowest speed is great for getting wet and aroused. I personally only like the steady function which is the first one. It feels just like one big vibration on my clitoris. The steady function set on the highest speed was sometimes too intense. I loved it though. I would only recommend this toy if you like really intense toys. However there are slow speeds that would make this toy less intense, and you should still be able orgasm even on the slower speeds.

If you always use the toy on the highest speed, your batteries will drain in no time - especially if you use this toy for one to two hours without stopping. Naturally, if you use the slower speed settings, the batteries will last longer. I estimate that the batteries would last three to four hours on the highest speed. I honestly can't say if you leave the batteries in the toy if it will or will not drain the batteries. I always took my batteries out of my toy even though this was the only toy I had that took AAA batteries.

The controls remind me of a computer mouse. In order to get to a different function, you have to press the silver button. If you press too quickly or too hard, it will skip pass the function you want. I would get aggravated having to go through all of the functions to turn it off if it skipped the off function. This happened a lot to me. If you are worried about someone walking in on you and catching you masturbating, I would not suggest this toy. To adjust the speed, you just slide the scroll wheel on the controller. There is also a really long flexible cord that attaches to the toy. This is convenient since you can place the controller at a position you like, and the bullet won't be pulled out of your vagina.

The toy is very easy to clean. I suggest using a toy cleaner since the toy is not waterproof. I made the mistake of using water and soap instead of a toy cleaner which is why my toy stopped working sooner than it should have.

The original packaging is perfect for storing the toy if you don't have be discreet. A sex toy box would be a great place to store the toy if you need to be discreet. You don't need a lot of space to store the toy since the toy itself is detachable from the controller.

Although I have never tried a lubricant on this toy, I would think any type of lubricant would work.

The toy is packaged in a plastic case that opens very easily, and there is no cutting involved in opening the package. There is no user's instruction manual included. There is really no need for an instruction manual.

The original packaging could be used to store the toy, but it is not discreet. If you are needing to be discreet, I would suggest a sex toy box or a drawer to hide the toy in.

If you plan on giving this toy as a gift, make sure that you either give this toy to the recipient in private or find out in advance if the recipient would be comfortable receiving a sex toy in front of other people.

I would not recommend using this toy in the shower since it is not waterproof.
