I purchased this toy expecting to mostly use it for its vibrations during masturbation, but I have since discovered that they are not strong enough for me. Whether I removed the purple jelly sleeve or kept it on, with just this toy on my clit, I was not able to orgasm. I have found that for me, this one is best for foreplay. When I first used just this toy on my clit, I felt like I was being teased! It aroused me, but nowhere near enough to reach orgasm. Needless to say, this was very frustrating; still, I wanted to find another use for it, and succeeded!

This being said, I have found it to be fantastic for vaginal insertion. The sleeve is removable, but for this purpose, I will leave it on simply because it feels fucking great! The texture and feel of the sleeve feels fantastic, especially if one's vagina is naturally small or tight, or for a virgin. I will occasionally use it as a dildo. Other times, when I need a little extra oomph, I will turn it on, insert it, and use it in conjunction with another vibrator. This little combination, to put it mildly, sends me into orbit. The first time I tried this, I quickly reached an intense, shuddering, shaking orgasm.

If you are like me, and need a little stronger vibration, the Mini Brute will work fantastically in conjunction with another toy. If, however, you are simply looking for a basic vibrator and do not want anything for insertion, this is not the one for you. (Unless, of course, you have a very sensitive clit and cannot stand much vibration.)

Since this toy is jelly, if you plan on sharing, condom it! I found after the first couple uses that it was difficult to clean, so I have taken to condoming it even though I do not share it. As I have not used lube with this toy, I can't comment on that particular aspect of usage.

A few more sessions with this toy has only served to remind me that I am simply not impressed! The sleeve has a good feel to it, but it also has to be used with a condom or some other type of toy cover, which is not always convenient. I have only had one orgasm while using this toy alone. The complete lack of "vroom" simply does not compare to my other, much stronger toys. While it can be used as a vibrating dildo, there are other toys that serve as much better options for this type of stimulation.

If your clit is very sensitive and you are not adverse to jelly, this toy may be for you. If you desire stronger vibrations and want safer materials, look elsewhere.
