The Silver Six is an OK toy for beginners. It is small in size and has easy-to-use controls, while still having some power. It is slightly noisy, and by slightly I mean that you can hear it under the covers on the low setting and probably through the door on the highest. It is best used for clitoral stimulation by any level, or for vaginal for a beginner. I would not recommend using it for anal play as it doe not have a flared base and pulling too hard on the cord will damage it. If you do want to try it for anal, you should use it with vibrator enhancers. The smallest one will fit it just fine. It is great for solo play or for use during sex as a clitoral stimulator.

Both the control unit and the vibrator itself are made out of a hard plastic, which is non-porous and smooth. It has 6 groves on it which gives it a slight texture. This texture really does not add anything for me as it is too narrow for me. Plastic does not hold any smell or taste, while being an 8 on EdenFantasys material safety scale.

With the narrow size of the vibrator, it is best for external use. If you are new to toys, or are on the tight side you may get some enjoyment from using it vaginally though.

The design is not good for vaginal use. The vibrator is 5 1/4" long, 4" insertable, and only 5/8" in diameter. This means that unless you are on the tight side, it will not have enough girth for much of any enjoyment. You can use it as an external vibrator though, for which it works quite well. This small size does make it easy to hide, as looking at it you will not have a hard time to figure out what it is used for.

A simple handheld slider is used to control the toy's speeds. When you are at the lowest point on the slider it is off fully. As you gently push it up, there will be a little bit of tension which tells you that you have turned it on. Just beyond this point, you do not have any vibrations at all. It takes moving it up about 1/6 of the way to be able to feel anything at all. After you start to feel the vibrations, they increase quickly with just a little bit of movement. The vibrations are located in the outer 1/3 of the vibrator and are of a moderately high level. It does make a good bit of noise, making you think that it would have more kick than it does. This is NOT waterproof so do not even try to use it in wet environments.

The Silver Six is not waterproof so some care needs to be taken when cleaning. The vibrator can be washed with soap and water as long as you are careful with the place where the cord connects. You can also wipe the entire thing with toy cleaner wipes, which is easier in my opinion. For storage, you can keep it just about anywhere you want. I would not suggest keeping it out in the open as it can be easily figured out as to the use of it. Plastic is compatible with any type of lube that you wish to use.
