The LELO Nea is a gorgeous, tiny vibrator that packs a punch for its size.

While LELO created the Nea as a clitoral vibrator, I enjoy slipping the tip of it in between my labia (if you do, be careful not to insert it too deeply as it isn't waterproof, so getting fluids of any kind into the buttons is a big no-no) while the curved body lies humming against my clit. I also like running her gently along my breasts and nipples for a little shivery thrill. While the little point feels amazing against the anus, anal insertion isn't recommended, but partial insertion is possible if care is taken- you wouldn't want your new friend sucked into your butt, would you?

Don't think that the little Nea is only good for alone time- she's also perfect for partner play! While giving your partner some oral love, press her against your cheek as you have his dick slip into the side of your mouth, or for the more daring, hold her against your throat as you deep-throat him. You can even gently glide her along his balls to tease him, or even use the point to stimulate his perineum- that tender, sensitive area lying between his balls and anus.

Her small size and curved shape even allows you to leave her in place (cupping your pubic bone and the tip resting on your clit) during sex in certain positions like missionary. My boyfriend also loves using one hand to press her against me while we're going at it doggy-style.

The Nea is great for travel due to her discreet, gorgeous appearance and small size. In addition to this, the ability to lock her buttons ensures that you (and your travelling companions) don't get any unpleasant surprises.

The Nea is made of shiny, smooth hard plastic, with absolutely no texture or drag. While the smoothness feels amazing against my sensitive clit and labia, the only drawback of the material is that it gets slippery... very quickly. Regardless of whether it's vaginal fluids or lube, once the area you're holding onto gets wet, it feels as though you're holding onto a bar of wet soap. I suggest keeping some tissue nearby to clean it off in order to keep a good grip on it.

She doesn't retain any smell (only very temporarily, but goes away quickly after leaving it out for a while), and has no taste.

Because of her glossy finish, the Nea is a fingerprint magnet, especially with the black version where any marks and fingerprints are more conspicuous.

The Nea is tiny at 3" long and 2" across, small enough to fit in the palm of my hand.

Her body is very gently curved in an ergonomic C-shape, tapering to a point. The shape and size is perfect for conforming to the pubic bone and stimulating the clit.

I chose the black version, and there is a stylized floral motif on the back in a gorgeous shade of pink, as well as two little flowers in the front of the vibe, near to the tip. Together with the glossiness, it looks like a beautiful painted, polished pebble.

The Nea is very, very discreet in appearance, and it's unlikely that anyone would associate the Nea with anything of a sexual nature- until they turn it on, of course; but that's what the locking feature is for!

There are only 2 buttons on the Nea that appealingly light up when pressed. These buttons are conveniently located on the bottom of the front of the Nea, which makes it very easy to adjust the vibrations.

The controls are simple and intuitive to use- pressing and holding the right button turns it on, pressing the right button increases the strength of the vibrations, while pressing the left button decreases it. Finding and cycling through the vibrational patterns is easy as well.

I personally don't enjoy vibrational patterns, but for those who do, the Nea has 5 different patterns and many vibrational levels that range from a low hum to a high, powerful purr- I counted 13, but I'm not too sure.

The vibrations are buzzy and high-pitched, and the highest level is strong enough to make my hand go numb, as well as trigger quick, explosive orgasms.

Even at the highest vibrational level, the Nea is VERY quiet- through a closed door, there is no way anyone outside of it will hear her purr, and at lower levels, even if someone is IN the room, they might not be any the wiser.

The Nea is rechargeable and holds a charge for a looong time- a 2 hour charge can last up to 7 hours of play, according to LELO. I'm not entirely sure whether it lasted 7 hours, but I definitely got many uses out of a single charge

The Nea is made of phthalate-free ABS plastic. She is non-porous, so you don't have to worry about any germs hiding in her.

Any type of lubricant would work fine with the Nea seeing as it's made of plastic- water-based, silicone-based or even oil-based will work, but the oil or silicone-based lube will take a lot more work to clean off.

As the Nea isn't waterproof, cleaning is as simple as taking a damp, clean washcloth (and some antibacterial toy spray or bleach solution to sterilize her if you're particular) to wipe her down- Nea's shiny body makes it easy to see if you've missed any spots. What I occasionally do is carefully rinse the upper sections (towards the point) under a tap, taking care not to let any water reach the buttons or the charging port at the bottom, before wiping it off. This makes it easier to remove any dried up gunk left on it.

The Nea won't react with any materials, so feel free to store her with your other toys. She comes with a little satin drawstring pouch, so it would be best to keep her in that (or any other pouch) to prevent her beautiful shiny surface from being scratched.

The Nea comes in a gorgeous, discreet box with the brand LELO printed on it. The packaging is classy and minimalistic- no half-naked women or lewd sexual puns in sight!

The Nea is prettily nestled in a little plastic cradle, once you can bear to stop admiring the box and open it. She comes with a wonderful one-year warranty, a detailed instruction manual that is printed in several languages, the charger, as well as a small white satin bag to store her in, which is a nice touch.

The quality and appearance of the packaging screams expensive and designer, and gifting the Nea in the box it comes in is definitely not going to be a problem.

I LOVE my Nea. She's the first toy that I reach for when I'm in need of a quick orgasm, and it never fails to please me (except when it runs out of power!). Her vibrations are incredibly strong, and orgasms come effortlessly.

Her shape is perfect for people like me who masturbate belly-down, and her small size hands-down beats larger, more cumbersome vibrators.

The Nea is a little on the pricey side at just under $80, but she is worth every penny- I doubt I will ever find a better clit vibe to replace her.
