This will definitely never be a favorite toy of mine. It's not pretty or discreet. It looks cheap and I keep worrying that the paint will fade. I have tried this a few times, trying to make myself like the toy - there's just no chemistry. Tried on my clit, none of the vibrations levels or patterns were comfortable for me. It's definitely a buzzy, high-pitched vibrator as opposed to a rumbly one, and annoying at that. Tried vaginal penetration with it - also a miss. No matter what angle I insert it at, it's uncomfortable because of the ridges and being a hard plastic (and therefore having no give.) In fact, it caught on my pubic bone a few times - ouch!

Tried using it with a friend (using a condom, because while plastic is easy to clean, it is not sterilizable), she enjoyed it more than I did but had the same basic problems.

After all of this, I finally tried using it for anal (which I do not believe is safe because there's not very much of a flared base, and the taper is, well, backwards for a comfortable anal toy). I did not enjoy that, either.

The bullet itself is made of a hard plastic (which has a material safety rating of 8). It is completely non-porous and phthalate-free. Whereas some plastic can feel more velvety - this was a hard, sleek plastic with absolutely no give in any way. Personally, although I've never had a problem with hard plastics before, I found this toy incredibly uncomfortable.

I will start this off saying that although I was incredibly curious to try the shape of this - I dislike it immensely. It's uncomfortable for me in all ways, especially in that it has no give and gets caught on my pubic bone. The bumps aren't noticable for me EXCEPT for when they catch like I just mentioned. The size is great, maybe not so much for a 'bullet' but for a regular vibrator it would be lovely. The size is beginner friendly as it's not too big, except maybe at the very head. My advice to a beginner using it - lube is your friend if you're afraid it won't fit.

There are seven settings, which are a low vibration, medium vibration, high vibration and then three patterns, and then what is supposed to be an ultra-high setting but to me feels just like the high vibration. They're all moderately strong but as I've mentioned, they're buzzy and annoying rather than rumbly.

You can clean it by washing it with antibacterial soap and hot water, or by wiping down with isopropyl alcohol. I haven't cleaned it with isopropyl alcohol, because as I mentioned before, I'm afraid the paint will wear off. I personally cleaned it with toy cleaner, being careful not to get the cord or battery compartment wet. The ridges of the texture make it semi-difficult to clean, as did the uncomfortable seam going up one side of it, so pay extra attention to those!

It is compatible with all types of lube - I personally always use a water based lube.

As far as storing, I have all of my toys currently in a locked box, most of them in their original packaging. This toy is one of the very few that I couldn't store in it's original package. It's difficult to store because of the cord. Also remember to NEVER store a toy with the batteries in it.
