The Fairy MiniMini- praised almost universally as a portable, fully adjustable Hitachi wand, when I saw the wand itself I couldn't believe it. I thought that all these people must be wrong- how can something so tiny even hope to come close to the Hitachi?

Well, I popped 6, yes 6, AA batteries into the battery pack and set out to find the truth. I was.. a little disappointed, but there is an AC adapter that is made for it, that boosts the power a bit, supposedly. I only have the battery pack, and even with it maxed out, it comes to a level of vibration that is strong, surprising, intense... but not quite Hitachi level. Not really even Vibratex Mystic Wand level. Once again, this is just with the battery pack, so with the AC adapter it may transform into a beast or something- I can't say.

In use it's pretty good, very easy to use. Vibrations are adjusted via a dial, and you can go from a barely vibrating at all level to really high pitched and intense vibrations. One of the levels of vibrations actually makes the whole toy shake, which is pretty cool. For it's size, it is still very strong, and surprising. It'd be excellent to use during sex, however if you grind or straddle it and cover the toy up, it can get hot- it happens pretty quickly, so make sure you pay attention to this during use, and don't cover or smother the toy.

The packaging is cute, it's entirely in Japanese except the title, and has pictures of the product as well as the Fairy Wand mascot- a pink fairy silhouette. Inside, there is a foam block that has depressions in it, these are what holds the toy and the battery pack. There weren't really any instructions, but setting the toy up is pretty easy to figure out. Put the batteries into the Battery pack, then plug the attached cord into the bottom of the Fairy MiniMini. After that, just turn it on using the dial and have some fun!

The toy is not waterproof, nor can it be shared reliably, but you can clean it well between uses by using toy cleaner, toy wipes, or possibly alcohol wipes. I don't recommend submerging this, or using a lot of soap and water because you risk damaging the toy- and always make sure the toy is unplugged from any power source before you clean it. There is this ridge behind the head that can be hard to get to as well... I recommend bunching up a toy wipe, or a paper towel saturated with toy cleaner, and sticking it behind the ridge and running it around the head to prevent accumulation of gunk. You could use a condom or toy cover to cover the head, but I think it wouldn't stay easily on the MiniMini because it's so... mini.

So, it wasn't earth shaking, or life changing, for me but the toy was still very nice. It's small enough to be used in combination with other toys or during intercourse, though it is loud and can get warm during use, it's pretty easy to clean and take care of, and it's compatible with most lubes- water and silicone, since there are PVC components to the toy. It's small and portable, so you can store it pretty much anywhere, or even take it along with you if you wanted to!

All in all, I do recommend the Fairy MiniMini Wand, and I do think the battery pack will be enough power for most people, but if you're looking for a miniature Hitachi, look into getting the AC adapter for it, or find yourself a general 10mm ac adapter that you feel alright using with it.
