You know how it is, when you see that nice looking guy in the bar, he's got a friendly smile and a little twinkle in his eye? Imagining a night with him brings images of soft and slow love making, tender and gentle. Well that's the Icicle flexi-p G-spot in a nutshell. It's the nice guy.

It's the right size, a good shape and it's easy to see how to work it. The first time I used the Icicle, I found it hard to reach climax. The vibrations are too subtle for me to really enjoy it against my clit, and using it as a straight dildo left a little to be desired.

Initially I thought I might have been in the mood for a little more 'rough love' than sweet and gentle, so I wanted to give this 'nice guy' another try. This time I got myself in the mood, lit candles, a little wine, drew a relaxing bath and then settled in for some quality alone time.

No better... I tried all the tricks, but it didn't bring me to the climax I was looking for. It is just not powerful enough to get me over the edge - something I really look for in a vibe. On the upside, the well rounded head slipped easily inside me and the prominent ridges sent ripples of pleasure through me. On the downside, I would have preferred it to be a little more squishy and supple. The best part of the shape is that it is thick enough that I felt full, but somehow it left me wanting more. Basically more vibrations.

Not to be outdone a few days later I thought I'd take a good long look at this sweet looking thing. And to my astonishment... you could bend it! How had I missed this the first time around? I'd thought the whole 'Flexi' name was a bit over the top till I gave it a real good bend. And bend it did - to almost 90 degrees! My mind began to race as I bent it this way and that, so I popped some new batteries in, and off I went. And did I go off! The change in angle meant I could manoeuvre the Icicle to press right against my g-spot and the effects were almost instant. Now I can see the benefits!

After much consideration, I began to desire a partner with whom to enjoy this toy. That would be its perfect place. Its gentle vibes would enhance oral without overwhelming, it's not too big for anal (if that's your thing), and since it is on the quieter side, it wouldn't intrude on 'the moment.' Not to mention that the bend means that you're can get full penetration whilst still leaving other areas free to be licked and caressed, which is never a bad thing. Another thing I considered is that some men can be a little intimidated by the introduction of toys to the bedroom, therefore the Icicle would be a great starter. There are not too many bells and whistles, it doesn't look difficult to use and the settings run on an easy dial system from off to strong. Well, stronger.

While I would have preferred the vibe to be a little more robust for regular use, this one will be a great addition to my toy chest. I can't wait to show it to my next conquest and get him involved on the action - this toy has a lot more to give!
