This toy is best used for vaginal or clitoral stimulation, but it is slim enough to use for anal play if you are careful. However, there is no base to this toy, so I would suggest this toy as being best for vaginal use rather than anal stimulation.

I used a water-based lube, but any kind of lube will do for this hard plastic toy. The vibrations are surprisingly powerful for such an inexpensive toy. Unfortunately, however, the heavy vibrations also means a loud noise, and would not be ideal to use in a setting with a roommate.

This toy would be great for couples-play, as well as for solo masturbation, as the vibrations are so powerful it could provide stimulation for the Ms. and the Mr. Although the toy is not waterproof, it can be run under hot or cold water for wonderful temperature play! For beginners or for advanced players, this toy would make a great addition to your collection.

The realistic-looking ridges on the Powerful Penis Vibrator add extra stimulation to the intense vibrations, and are beyond wonderful when paired with the right lube. With the use of two C batteries, it makes the toy on the heavier side, and it feels good in your hands -- as well as your body. The plastic is extremely smooth, and feels cold to the touch, with no odor at all. Though this toy is a hard plastic, it has no taste to it whatsoever.

Hard plastic is actually one of the safest materials for vibrators, since it it phthalate-free and has a very low porosity, making it easier to clean. and less likely for the plastic to adopt any bad tastes/smells. The inflexibility actually creates a great opportunity for couples and solo play! I would say that this toy is leaning towards the advanced side rather than the beginning side when it comes to level of necessary experience, but the traditional vibrator look and feel of the Powerful Penis Vibe makes it accessible to anyone who's willing to try.

For me, the size of this vibe was perfect. It's 7 1/2" long, and about 1 3/8" in diameter, with a 6 3/4" insertion length. It's long enough to be able to hold onto comfortably (if your hand doesn't go numb), and thin enough to be easily insertable and fun for occasional anal play.

This toy is NOT discreet! I would not advise you keep this with you in your purse, but instead to find a good spot for it somewhere in your room. It's not the easiest toy to travel with, but it could definitely be crammed into a backpack or suitcase.

The vibrations are controlled by a dial on the end of the toy, which increases a steady rhythm of rumbly vibrations rather than having designated settings. The dial is easy to operate and increases the vibrations from a steady buzz to a powerful rumbling, which is felt throughout the whole toy, but there is enough base to it that your hands won't slip and accidentally increase the vibes. It's extremely easy to use, and allows one hand to be free to add extra stimulation, if desired. Even the lowest settings are fairly intense, and the highest settings have your fingers trembling. This toy is VERY noisy, and would not be ideal for use in a roommate/dorm situation. It's definitely an all alone or with a lover type of vibrator. The C batteries allow for a long life, so don't worry about wearing it out.

With its size, it's difficult to store this vibe anywhere discreetly, but it's easy enough to put away in a drawer or closet. The Power Penis can be stored next to other vibes without issue, and cleaning is super easy! All you have to do is rinse and wash with soap and water. And, if you want, remove the batteries to clean out the space between the dial and the base of the toy. It is not waterproof, though, so I would not recommend putting it through a cycle in the dish washer. Seriously, for such a low price, this is a ridiculously low-maintenance toy.
