The M5000 is the rechargeable, beautiful, black version of the famous Hitachi magic wand. While it's not made by the same company, they look identical from the handle to the head, besides decoration and color. This massager also offers a adjustable dial for vibration strength.

The M5000 does have a smell upon opening the package. It's due to the massaging head, it has a very rubbery smell to it. I don't doubt that it is silicone, but there are different grades of silicone on the market. I did however remove the interchangeable head to find the source of the odor. On the underside of the head there is another substance, I assume to be some sort of rubber, foam, compound wrapped in clear plastic. What is the purpose of this? I do believe it's just for extra padding because without it the head just wobbles and flail's around.


Without the head.


The size of this wand is exactly the same size of the Hitachi magic wand. The head is black and has the exact same texture as the Hitachi as well as the indent around the middle. This is great news because any
attachment that is made for and fits the Hitachi will fit this wand as well. The handle is identical in shape but not decor. The M5000 has a very feminine white scroll pattern on the black handle. It's very pretty.






This massager comes with a plug in the charging port at the base or the toy. The plug serves a dual purpose. The unit becomes travel friendly with the plug in place. The massager will not turn on or function while the plug is inserted. It also serves to keep the unit free of debris while not in use.

This massager comes partially charged. It is recommended that the available charge be used and the the unit should be charged for eight hours. The partial charge took a little over a half hour to fully deplete. While charging the toy will glow red from a little light above the power dial. When complete it will glow green. After the first eight hour charge and brief usage, I let the toy sit for about a couple of day's. I was surprised to find it was no longer fully charged. It took about fifteen minutes to come back to full power. I was unable to tell the difference in strength before or after the charge, so it was about the same.


Operation is simple, simply turn the adjustable, silver, dial and select your vibration level. The M5000 starts off very deep and rumbly and the higher the vibration level, the more buzzy the vibrations become. How does the M5000 stack up in terms of strength when compared to the Hitachi? Well, to my best estimation the vibration level max's out at the top of the low strength on the Hitachi.


Care is simple. Keep the base away from running water. Avoid silicone lube. The head and handle can be wiped down with toy cleaning wipes or wiped down with a wash cloth. The head can also be boiled or washed with antibacterial soap and water. Also included with the M500 is a dual sided satin storage bag to keep the toy clean and hygienic.
