Use

The Sweet Embrace clitoral vibrator by Eden Toys can be used by couples or for solo play. It is great for sensory play and can be used practically anywhere due to the toy's waterproof nature. This means you can enjoy your vibrator on a bed, in the shower, or in the tub as it can be submerged. It is not the best for traveling with, as it can easily be recognized for its use, so those who are easily embarrassed may want to leave the toy at home.

The toy's main purpose is clitoral and labia stimulation, but it can also be used on the nipples or the scrotum of men. The soft nubs and bristles of the toy tantalize and tease as it vibrates away. There aren't any precautions you should take with this toy, but it is obviously not made for insertion so should not be used in that way.

Material / Texture

The Sweet Embrace is made from nonporous, hypoallergenic, latex and phthalate-free silicone. This premium silicone is velvety to the touch and is soft and flexible to ensure maximum comfort and pleasure. Users with sensitivities won't have to worry, as this silicone has no questionable scents or taste to the material. While there is a manufacturing smell right out of the box, this quickly dissipates and does not have an overpowering odor. The silicone the toy is a lint and dust magnet, and will immediately begin attracting dirt, dust and lint out of the package.

The silicone warms to the touch quickly and adds to the sensation. It has a nubbed texture along the inside of the cup which also stimulates the areas you apply it to. Beginners and advanced users would enjoy the texture of the toy, as it's not too intense since the silicone is flexible and squishy in this area. It has a kind of bumpy, tickling feeling when rubbed against the skin.
    • Bumpy
    • No odor
    • Not porous at all

Design / Shape / Size

The shape of the toy reminds me of a flower, such as a lily or a pitcher plant. It is cupped to form to the body, and has a texture similar to that of a silicone brush, but with less intensity. There are also some raised 'tongue-like' textures in the middle for more intense stimulation. It features a screw on base that houses the battery compartment, and two buttons for power and cycling through the different vibration patterns. The toy is about 6-3/4 inches long in total length, and the cup measures 3-3/4 inches long by 2-1/4 inches wide.




The toy could easily fit into a handbag, luggage or another carrier, but if found, it is easy to tell what the toy is used for, so if the user is easily embarrassed, perhaps they'd be better off picking a more discreet toy to travel with. Both beginners and advanced users could enjoy the texture of this toy, and the size is great for any anatomy. However, the functions leave something to be desired (more in the next section). While this won't be the most convenient toy to travel with, it can be easily concealed at home with the exception of not leaving the toy out in the open.

Functions / Performance / Controls

The Sweet Embrace has 30 different vibration patterns. These vibrations range from buzzy to low and humming. The motor, while quiet, is not very powerful, so don't expect mind-blowing orgasms quickly from this toy. This toy is more equipped for something along the lines of foreplay and is not meant to be a finisher so to speak. It has constant, short burst, and escalating vibration settings, but be ready to cycle through them all again should you accidentally turn the unit off or have to change the 2 AAA batteries, as it does not have a memory function.

The buttons of the toy are easy to push and are in a convenient location when the toy is in use. It's not hard to push the cycle button as you're holding the unit to your body, and even if your hand is covered in lubricant, the buttons are still easily pressed. When powered on, the unit has a red light indicator, and this light pulses to the different vibration settings as you cycle through them. The toy works on 2 AAA batteries and doesn't eat away the batteries quickly, which will last for more than one use. This depends on the battery brand and the amount of time the unit is used.

There is a screw-off battery compartment on the base of the toy, and when the cap is removed, an o-ring is revealed. This is for the toy's waterproof capability, so always make sure the o-ring is secured before using the toy in the shower or bath. Inside of the battery compartment. The toy shows which way the battery should go with a + and - symbol. The compartment cap screws on and off easily, and users should have no problems removing the batteries and replacing them quickly.


The toy is waterproof and holds up well in the shower. It also worked through being submerged in a bathtub.

The cup of the toy is soft and flexible and should fit most anatomy types. The bristles of the texture are also soft and flexible and feel great when the toy is rocked back and forth on the body. It creates a sort of 'lapping' sensation with the bigger nubs in the middle of the cup. The silicone has a matte feel to it and adds to the pleasure when in use. When turned on, this toy numbs the hands and area it is placed against fairly quickly, due to the hum of the vibrations. The main point of the vibration is the middle of the cup, but the vibrations travel throughout with the size of the vibrator.
    • Discreet sound
    • Easy to use
    • Weak

Care and Maintenance

This toy has a bit of a drawback in that it's a bit annoying to clean. While the silicone does not hold onto any bacteria, you will need a soft-bristled brush (such as a toothbrush you don't use) to get down into the nubs of the cup. It cannot be boiled due to the mechanical parts, so you'll need to lather the cup up with soap to rinse and scrub it under hot water. You may also use a toy cleaner on the toy, or rub it down in a 5% bleach (95% water) solution to sterilize. Be sure that the cap to the battery compartment is secure and tight before rinsing the toy under water so as not to damage any of the mechanics.

Once thoroughly washed, you can pat the toy down with a lint-free towel or cloth or allow it to air-dry. Do not leave the toy out in direct sunlight and do not expose the toy to any form of direct heat. When completely dry, you should store the toy in a cool, dark and dry area, such as a toy chest, closet, or drawer. The toy can be stored in the bag provided or the box it came in. Always remember to remove the batteries before storing the vibrator, and always wash the toy before and after each use.

Always remember to use water-based lubricants only with the toy. Any other lubricants may damage the toy's surface and cause it to become sticky. If you'd like to test a hybrid lubricant (water and silicone based) pick an inconspicuous spot to test it on for a few minutes. If the spot becomes gummy or sticky, wash immediately and discontinue use of the lubricant.
    • Easy to store
    • Hard to clean

Packaging

The toy was shipped discreetly in a plain, unmarked, brown cardboard box. The only thing on the outside of the box was a shipping label with two addresses. The address the toy ships from is discreet and does not read as Edenfantasys. If one were curious they could google it, but other than that it's completely discreet. The box is sturdy and arrived perfectly safe in the mail.

Inside of the box there were air pillows keeping the toy safe and sound from bumping around during transit. Underneath the air pillows, the toy box was sat and the packing slip was tucked underneath the box of the toy. The toy came packaged in a sturdy cardboard box with information written on the back and the Eden logo on the front. The box is great for storage purposes if you don't want to leave the toy sitting out in the organza bag provided and is discreet enough that it does not say 'adult novelty' or any have any other indicators of it being an adult item.



The toy was packed inside of the box in an organza bag and a clear cellophane bag. The organza bag has a ribbon drawstring that says "sex toys" on it, so it's not exactly discreet. The box the toy comes in can be wrapped up for gifting or placed in a nice gift bag. Always let others know when you are gifting an item of adult nature in case they are easily embarrassed. If you don't wish to keep the box or the bags, they are easily recycled.

    • Good for storage
    • Minimal
    • Recyclable
Follow-up commentary
It's not that we hated this toy, but the fact that it takes multiple batteries and that it has a lack of power behind the vibration really bored us. My partner enjoys strong vibrations and there are better toys on the market that are rechargeable. This would be great for beginners and is a safe and affordable option.

    Another great review!! Bummer it doesn't pack much power... but usually the case w/ toys that use AAAs.
  • Contributor: OH&W, Lovebears
    Wow, kinda of an odd looking toy. Def not discreet.
  • Contributor: Daddy'sSexKitten
    It definitely is an odd looking toy!
    I can imagine it would feel great if it was more powerful.
    I personally love a very strong vibration.
  • Contributor: symbiasin
    ditto on the power....that is what I look for firdt AA batteries. I had noticed and considered this. Great review.
  • Contributor: Daddy'sSexKitten
    I definitely feel like after years of vibration, that my body just keeps needing more and more power. It's like my body gets bored of it and needs something new.
  • Contributor: Naturalred33
    So this doesn't have interest vibrations? Like I'd it with the money?
