It's just your average toy with aesthetics added. Nice to look at, nice to play with if other people aren't around who you don't want to know what you're doing. Nubs could've been stiffer and the noise could've been a lot less.
The best use for this toy would be traditional use and in the shower since it's waterproof; it could be used just about anywhere for any reason. It stimulates the clitoris, could be used for nipple stimulation, and could also used for insertion. The best situation for this toy would probably be any that takes advantage of its being waterproof.
The material is very interesting. You're not sure what to think of it when looking at it, but after holding it in your hand it's a lot softer than it looks. Doesn't have a strong smell, it's made of silicone and if you left it next to your pillow or something you wouldn't turn over and smell it. I've had that happen with a few jelly toys.
The design isn't anything special, neither is the shape. It's basically a regular vibrator with silicone nubs all over it. I think the material should've been something stiffer so you'd be able to feel the nubs more, but it's sufficient. I generally go for designs that are more unique so that's not what attracted me to it. The size is good for both beginners and advanced users; it's not too big or too small. The toy really isn't easy to hide; it's not huge but if it were put into a purse it would be easy to see.
Vibrations are located throughout the length of the shaft so there aren't spots that are weaker or stronger than others. There really isn't one best function of this toy other than the silicone nubs; they're enjoyable, but not as much as I thought it would be. Controls are a simple turn dial on the base. The knob is very tight and you don't have to worry about accidentally moving it at the wrong time.
This toy is easy to care for, I store it in a shoebox with the rest of my toys without a problem. The material is one of the more safe ones so that's not an issue. I don't use lube with my toys since I'm not big on inserting but I always use water-based lube for that if necessary.
Packaging is your standard, run-of-the-mill pull-open-at-the-top type thing. Sufficient instructions are included and the package can't be used for storage or a gift box.
The first time I used this toy, I thought "ugh, disappointment." I've used it a few times since then and it's grown on me and become more pleasurable. I don't like loud toys though, so I have to make sure no one is upstairs at all when I use it.

It's loud...and not as good as other toys I have, but I'll keep it in my lineup to keep things exciting. Nice concept, but the execution didn't go as planned.

Really good information here, mzhoneythang. I'm very glad you chose the extended format and think you did real well organizing. If you'd like more help with future reviews and learning more ins and outs of the EF community, check out the Mentor Program or message any one of us!
And I'm really intrigued by the texture myself. Enough so that I think I shall wishlist it for a rainy day!

That texture sort of freaks me out.. did you find it collected stuff in between all those nubs?
Kindred
It does seem like cleaning this could be a pain. Thanks for the review.

Thanks! I only used it a few times so I don't think it was enough to allow things to collect on it but cleaning it would me more of an issue than with smooth toys.
