Getting off in college can be a difficult task! With your roommate always around, your walls as thin as paper, and your shared showers, finding the right vibrator can be really tricky. For me, an everyday vibrator that gets me through the week has to have the following qualities: material safety, quiet strength, and waterproof construction for use in the shower.

The Heart Racer|Clitoral vibrator by California Exotic has all of these traits. Made of plastic, it is easy to care for and extremely safe, though it is rigid. Plastic is also compatible with all lubricants, including those with oil. (You can find the qualities of plastic sex toys and instructions for cleaning them here.) Though this vibrator is quite strong, it is also discreet. It’s also waterproof!

The Heart Racer is also more versatile than a more standard bullet vibrator. Shaped like the instrument dentists use to get a good look at your back teeth, the Heart Racer similarly gets to your more difficult-to-reach spots. Its shape is designed for G-spot stimulation, but it also works for clitoral stimulation.

The vibration in the Heart Racer is a small hammer that strikes the sides of the plastic shaft, which you can actually see when you turn it on. For those of you looking for more variety in your vibration, please note that this has only one steady buzz rather than pulses. The vibration ranges from a soft vibration up to a quite strong vibration, controlled by a dial at the end of the toy.

Slim and inflexible, the Heart Racer is not going to provide full-feeling penetration, but for someone looking to explore G-spot stimulation without a larger dildo or vibration, the Heart Racer would be a great place to start! Coupled with lubricant, the Heart Racer’s shape allows for extremely pleasant vibration on your g-spot. I also used it for clitoral stimulation. The bend in the flat end allowed for it to cup my clitoris, which was definitely a different sensation than a bullet produces!

Overall, I think that the Heart Racer gives quite a lot of bang (ahem) for the buck. It’s made of a safe material. It’s discreet enough to use in a semi-public shower or dorm but it is also strong enough to get the job done. It’s pretty cute—who doesn’t like glitter? It’s also versatile, performing for both g-spot and clitoral stimulation. Whether you’re looking for your first toy or you’re trying to mix up your sexual sensations a bit, this is a great toy to get the job done.
