For a very long time I have been searching for a strap-on clitoral vibrator that would allow me some hands-free pleasure at a good price. I thought that the Micro Butterfly Arouser looked like it could do the job. After using it many times in the past few weeks, I am still undecided about the usefulness of this little pink piece of jelly.

I am a clit girl all the way, so the idea of a small little bullet in a cute butterfly shape seemed great. The toy has very low odor (sometimes jelly toys can be a hit or miss on odor), the remote is simple and easy to control, and the butterfly outer piece comes entirely off, making cleaning very very simple. A little drop of any toy cleaner and some warm water and you're good to go. Just remember, you can't sanitize jelly, so keep it in mind if you are sharing.

The tiny bullet has very strong vibrations - VERY strong. It almost hurts to hold when it is on full blast outside the butterfly. When inside the butterfly, the vibrations are designed to wiggle the wings a bit and make the tiny antenna twitch and tickle. It does this pretty well at the lower vibration levels, but the higher the vibration the less the antenna twitch and the more they sting. This can be a little painful, especially if you are only turning up the vibrations on the remote for a little more excitement and end up stinging some sensitive areas (ouch!). Not to say that strong vibrations don't get the job done, but at the strongest these are probably too strong for even the least sensitive clitoris.

Another thing about the vibrations - the product claims that it will rotate around your "favorite functions". However, the product is set on a seemingly random cycle, that really just takes a long time to repeat, and can be very frustrating when it suddenly drops from very strong to very soft. The only control you have over the vibrations is the overall intensity, which you can raise and lower. It is not much control. While the vibrations cycle, the remote cycles through very bright, mildly annoying disco type lights. This was only really an issue when actually looking at the remote (which is really not a priority), but it's something important to note, especially if you prefer to pleasure yourself in the dark.

Another thing I was looking forward to in a strap-on toy was the strap-on capabilities and the idea of hands free use. Unfortunately, I am a bit larger. The teeny tiny straps that were enclosed with the toy would never ever fit around neither my waist nor my thighs. I have yet to find a different way to manipulate the straps to get fully hands on use, but the tiny straps included in the toy are not suitable for the larger girls, or even medium girls, I don't think. It is not hard to just tuck the toy in place, and it stayed without much slipping, but I definitely can't use it hands free.

The best thing about this toy is the added sensation it brings to sex with a partner. I'm a big fan of cock rings, but this toy quickly replaced my favorite cock ring. It allows more direct stimulation to my clitoris, and is powerful enough to be felt by my boyfriend, providing him with very adequate stimulation. The random cycling of vibration strength is less important when having sex, and makes this very functional. This is definitely something I'd suggest trying with any strap-on toy (even if it doesn't strap-on).

This toy has some really good factors, but also some big drawbacks. If you want something new to throw into the mix of your regular old toys, this will be a fun little bug. If you are looking for something to make a long time addition to your collection, I'd suggest looking elsewhere.
