This quiet, minimal vibrator would be ideal for a beginner due to it's size, shape, and simple mechanics. It operates on one sole button and is discreet and small enough to be hidden or stored privately. Due to my own not working properly, I only experienced low, unimpressive vibrations and no vibe patterns whatsoever. I feel this toy is cheap and would be a waste of batteries for an advanced user.

Cons
Overheats at base, Weak vibrations, Toy didn't function properly
Use this toy for internal stimulation, as it's shaped and functions just like a traditional vibrator until you get to the very tip. It's curved to stimulate your G-spot and wherever else the vibrations take you. It's small, can be carried with you during travel, or taken into the shower or for a swim.
The material upon touch would feel like silicone, but it's actually PU coated plastic. It's velvety and smooth to the touch, with no odor or funny smells or powders. This material is far from porous and just needs to be wiped down between uses or when you're going to share it. Clean it properly and you should have no issues with any bacteria or sharing your toy with a partner. The texture and material is definitely best for a beginner or those who don't like any texture on the shaft of their toys, or a hassle for clean up.
The bottom lid looks like it is the same material, just plastic with a silvery coating.
This is a small little guy, but packs a punch. For those who feel less is more, this is the right toy for you. The size is definitely suited more towards beginners, and the toy, while not discreet, is small and easily hidden or carried in luggage.
At the end of the shaft is a curved tip meant for G-spot stimulation, though I just found it to be similar to a painful hook that I didn't like. I use the tip for pin point stimulation on my clit and enjoy the vibrations that way.
The battery compartment is located at the bottom of the toy, with a screw on lid that opens up to a canister that holds your two Aaa batteries.
The vibrator is controlled with one sole button located on the lid of the battery compartment at the bottom. It reads "1OX," which I'm unsure of the meaning but I'm sure it means something.
This button raises the intensity of the vibrations and cycles between a roller coaster type vibration, escalating, pulsating, and what's described as "surging." The vibrations are average, unimpressive, and reverberate through the handle of the toy, which can be a little numbing after prolonged use. I put batteries into the toy and after thirty minutes of fiddling with it, finally got it to vibrate and it seemingly just increased in vibration whenever it felt like it and didn't respond to my clicking the button over and over. There were no patterns and after a while of trying, I just gave up. From what I felt, the vibrations were weak and would be best for a beginner. The vibrations were quiet and discreet.
A great plus to this toy is that it has a memory chip that remembers the last setting you had it on, so if you have a favorite, when you turn the toy on again, it will be right back at that setting and there's no need to reset it every time you choose to use it.
There's little maintenance required for such a simple vibrator. There are no crevices to clean between nor any pores for bacteria to hide in. Simply wipe it down before and after uses, or wash it in the shower if you'd like. It's waterproof and can be submersed or rinsed freely, which makes it really easy to care for.
Because of the tiny size, storage is no issue. Put it under your pillow, a little pouch, or directly in the box it came in. Use any lube you'd like, though I tend to stay away from oil based lubes with all of my toys because it's better to be safe than sorry. This toy seems to get along with other materials and I haven't had it damage another one of my toys yet, so it seems to be fairly low maintenance and easy to take care of.
The plastic box it comes in is pretty minimal and small, though it includes a lot of information about the toy inside and outside. The outside box is decorative and nice to look at and reads "10 Intense Functions of vibration, pulsation & escalation plus memory chip that resumes on last function used."
The inside contains a pamphlet with instructions on how to insert the batteries and warnings about the toy, which seems a little excessive but informative, nonetheless.
Since the box is so narrow and small, it'd be great to store your toy in when you aren't using it.
I'm unsure if mine simply had a malfunction or if my batteries, after two tries, just weren't compatible or right for the toy but the only vibrations I could get from it were increasing on their own and the toy didn't respond to my attempts to click the button and change it. It also wouldn't shut off unless I opened the battery compartment and took the batteries out and then screwed the lid back on, and got really hot at the base within the first two minutes of use.
I tried two different sets of batteries, both were good batteries, and only the second pair made the toy kick on and it wouldn't function the way it's supposed to.
I will include more information in my follow up review about the toy not functioning properly.
Follow-up commentaryI still don't like it2 months after original review
I gave this away after a few uses to someone else who also didn't like it. The pointy tip is unfriendly unless you hold this directly on your clit, and it doesn't do much for those who want anything more than sub par vibrations.
