Some vibrators just scream "buy me" from the page and the Calypso2 was like that for me. I was originally drawn by the design and I loved the fact that this bullet was made from silicone which has always rated amongst my favorite toy materials. The shape of the bullet also intrigued me and every girl loves a little intrigue when it comes to her sex life, right?

When the Calypso arrived I knew I was off to a good start when I saw the packaging. Tasteful, just the way I like my toy packaging! After I placed the 2 AAA batteries that it required into their housing, I decided to take this for a test drive, as I needed to get away for some me time.

The Calypso2 has seven speed settings that range from straight up buzz to pulsating buzz, so there is something to accommodate everyone's needs or wants in this little package. I love the fact that the controls were easy and you didn't have to be a rocket scientist to figure out how to operate the Calypso2. The fact that they are also back lit made me even happier; no more scrambling in the dark trying to figure out where and which button to press.

It wasn't long before I remembered why I love silicone as a toy material. I loved the way the Calypso bullet warmed to my body temperature very quickly but more than that I loved the way it felt on my clit. The smooth material with the addition of some water-based lube was basically heaven. I also enjoyed the size and shape of the bullet. It's not the traditional egg shape, but rather more elongated with a bulbous point that tapered the other end that really added something to the whole experience.

Then I added in the seven speeds, which are easy to find with the simple press of a button and it really was a "take me away" moment. I like variety in my sex toys and the fact that the Calypso2 had the ability to let me go from "laid back and relaxed" speed to pulsating "do me now" speed was wonderful.

The fact that the Calypso2 is waterproof is also a big bonus for me. As a busy mom, sometimes getting away from it means simply locking the bathroom door, turning on the faucet and either showering or if time permits running a bath. Having a toy that can help me get away a little more is a definite plus. The Calypso2 is easy to hide in the bathroom, as well as being on the quiet side when it comes to vibrators. Although, like all vibes, if left in the bottom of the tub they tend to jump and make lots of noise!

Unlike many vibes, the Calypso2 is truly waterproof and this includes the controller. While I'm generally not a fan of submerging an entire toy into the tub, I felt confident doing so with the Calypso2 and still do. I'll admit to doing what I call "the sink experiment" first, where I place the waterproof toy into a sink full of water to see what happens before I put into a tub with me. The Calypso passed with flying colors. Of course you should make sure the batteries and any backing is firmly in place and there are no bare wires showing before doing this! The Calypso2's controller came out dry, as did the battery compartment when I opened it.

Clean up is a breeze with the Calypso2, as is storage—another reason I love silicone. I keep this tucked in a make-up bag in my bathroom so it's always handy if I feel the need.

I also loved playing with my hubby with this toy. The shape makes for some great partner play. It was easy to place between us when we got horizontal. Hubby reports that the vibes were not quite powerful enough for him during solo play but during penetration it added another dimension.

Overall, this is a great little bullet that delivers a good bang for the buck and one that I would have no hesitation in recommending.
