The Vuali is a silicone vibrator from the SinFive line. The strong vibrations can be used externally to stimulate the clitoris or nipples and also internally for a fun vaginal experience. When reading the measurements one may think this is "average" size, however it is important to take the ridges into consideration. For an intermediate or more advanced user they can provide nice internal stimulation. However, I wouldn't recommend this one for a beginner to use internally. When used externally this one is great for all users. Even though it may look tempting, this one should not be used for anal because it lacks a flared base. If the temptation to use it anally gets the best of you, then it could possibly be used with a partner who has a firm grip on it.

This one is made out of smooth silicone that has some drag to it. Not only is this silicone, but it is Anti-microbial silicone. What this means is that the material has a built in way that keeps various forms of bacteria from growing on the surface. The information on this property that comes with the toy states that it will not effect your body in any way. Even without this great extra feature, silicone is one of the safest sex toy materials so everyone can enjoy it! Out of the box, this one doesn't have a smell or a taste (always a good sign in my opinion). One negative about this silicone is that is seems to attract more lint than some of my other silicone toys.

About an inch down the shaft, there is an area that has some pretty good sized ridges. They feel pretty intense when inserting the toy and if you thrust very vigorously. I found that due to this texture, I prefer to take things slow when it comes to moving this one around in my body. I knew once I inserted it that I was not going to be able to twist it around a lot, but I could do some slight back and forth twists. This area feels nice externally when rubbed on my clitoris, as long as there is enough lube to reduce the drag. The rest of the shaft is smooth and the silicone has more squish to it in the areas that are not directly covering the motor.

The first thing that I must mention about this one is that even though the size seems average, 6.5 inches insertable, 1.5 inches in diameter (5 inches in circumference),it feels bigger. The length works well for me and I am able to reach all the areas I want when it is inside of me. The first time I used this one I had a hard time inserting it due to the girth. This makes me think that this one is not the best for beginners to insertable toys, unless it is being used for external stimulation or after some warm up. Because it felt larger the first time, I got disappointed and stopped trying to force it, so I put it away. The next time I tried it was a completely different story! I warmed up a little bit more and was able to really put this one to the test. The reason I got this one was because the ridges looked like they would provide wonderful internal stimulation and they do. This is my favorite part about the design of the Vuali.

Vuali does not resemble a penis exactly, however I am pretty confident that anyone who comes across it will figure out its purpose. In regards to traveling with it, I think it could easily be thrown in an overnight bag or suitcase. I would think twice about bringing it in a carry on for a flight because you will get stares from security.

The vibrations that the Vuali produces are strong and can be felt really well throughout the entire shaft. I was happy that this toy did not give me numb hands. Although strong, I did not think this one was extremely loud. If used under the covers the sound is lessened a good bit, but even above the covers I doubt anyone could hear it through a closed door especially if there is any background noise. The vibrations worked well for me both internally and externally. On the lower settings I really enjoyed stimulating my clitoris to get myself nice and warmed up. The lower settings even worked internally as well for a nice build up to orgasm. The higher speeds were great at giving me the push I needed to go over the edge. Feeling my muscles contract and grip the textured portion(which is where the motor is located) as I orgasmed was a wonderful sensation.

Vuali takes 2 AA batteries (included). To control the Vuali you simply use the + and - buttons. Holding the + button for about 2 seconds turns it on and every push of the button increases the speed and goes through the patterns. To turn the toy off, simply hold down the - button for about 2 seconds. The buttons are very easy to press and even when they were covered in lube I did not have any trouble controlling the vibrations.

There are six speeds of continuous vibration and three patterns. The steady vibrations go from low and rumbly to very intense and throbby. I am convinced that, aside from the Wahl, this is my strongest vibe. The first two patterns are pulsation patterns (with the second being faster than the first) followed by a fun random pattern that starts off feeling like a roller coaster type pattern but changes to something else. With the other toys that I own, the patterns are nice for teasing but rarely make me feel as if I could orgasm from them. However, the patterns on the Vuali are different and I was able to orgasm using 2 of them. It might be due to the fact that the patterns seems to be on the higher end of vibration strength than other toys I have used in the past.

This vibe has a nice, thick ring around the battery cap that keeps water out. It says it is 100% waterproof however, I have not completely submerged mine.

The Vuali is very easy to clean and take care of. I simply clean mine with anti bacterial soap and warm water (the instructions say not to use very hot water on this one). It can also be cleaned with a toy cleaner. Due to the anti-microbial nature of the material, I do not think that it is necessary to use a 10% bleach solution on this one and boiling is out of the question because it will ruin the vibrating mechanism inside.

When used vaginally I HAD to use lube because of the drag of the silicone and because this one feels bigger than it is (especially where the ridged part is). This one is silicone so it is important to stick to water based lubes to avoid damaging the toy.

This one can be stored in the box, if you have room. The box keeps the toy and the batteries in one place and it isn't all that difficult to open so it works for me.

The Vuali comes in a box that has the picture of the toy on the front and a short two-sentence description of it on the back. Inside of the outer cover is a white box with a front that opens up so you can view the toy AND the BATTERIES that come with it. Vuali is nestled in a molded plastic insert. This box works well for storage because there is a place for the toy and the batteries. The only way that storing it in this box may be an issue is if you do not have a lot of space.

Inside of the box is also an instruction manual and a card to get an extended 5 year warranty for this toy. The instructions are very easy to understand and they explain the basics on how to use this one.

Even though it is not a discreet package because you can see the toy, I still think that it is classy enough to use for gift giving.

When I got this one I wasn't expecting to be able to stimulate my g-spot, which was fine with me. I was pleasantly surprised when I in fact was able to do so. Because the portion of the shaft that is ridged has a larger girth I was able to slowly twist the Vuali and make my g-spot happy. I am not sure if this will work for everyone, but it is worth a try.
