I really wanted to like this toy. After seeing such rave reviews on similar toys, I couldn't help but be really excited to try this one out. So I got it, and gave it a whirl. Well, suffice to say, I wasn't really that thrilled.

The plastic is pretty, a nice marbled dark purple pattern. Hard plastic is fairly nonporous, and easily cleaned with a little bit of soap and water. If you want to share with another partner safely, though, it's always a good idea to slap a condom on it! As tempting as the shape may be to use anally, don't try it with this toy, as it lacks a flange or handle at the end. Don't want to lose anything up the rectum, now do you?

So, back to the function of this toy. It's a standard, twist-dial hard plastic vibrator, with a bulbous end designed to stimulate the g-spot. The vibration is located more in the "lower shaft" region of the toy. To make it more effective, perhaps a modification to move the vibration from the bottom of the toy to the top would be in order. The bulbous end of the toy is designed to stimulate your g-spot, but the small size makes it hard to tell if the right spot is pressing up or not. If the bulbous end was larger and more angled, it would be more effective. The vibration is supposed to be variable-speed, but I found that it was really only one speed. Once you twisted the dial on, it would get slightly stronger in intensity if turned up, but not very much.

Perhaps this toy would be more useful and/or pleasurable for someone with not very much penetrative experience, but I like a larger toy with stronger vibrations.

As far as noise goes, this toy is pretty loud! I would not recommend using in a dorm room, or if you live with parents. It is waterproof, and comes with a rubber o-ring inside the battery compartment to keep water out. I tested it out in the shower, and it certainly seemed to hold up to this claim.

I tried using this toy clitorally, but the hard plastic was a little harsh on such sensitive tissue. For women who enjoy hard pressure on their clitoris, this toy could be a good bet...yet I found that the vibrations were not really strong enough to do much for me clitorally.

The shape of the toy can stimulate a male-bodied person's testicles or perineum as well!
