The Spring by Fun Factory is a wonderful little traditional vibe from their line of miniVIBES. This toy is cute, powerful, fully waterproof, and recharges via a magnetic "Click-N-Charge" system. It can be inserted vaginally and makes a fantastic clit vibe but can also be used to tease all of your erogenous zones such as nipples, inner thighs, testis, taint, etc. This toy should NOT be used anally, for obvious reasons.

The Spring can be used as a solo toy but with its small size there is no reason why you couldn't toss this in the mix of partner play. It is far from intimidating and is a great size for beginners and as well the seasoned toy users who prefer smaller toys. If you prefer longer or girthier toys for insertion, the Spring will leave you wanting. However, with the wide range of powerful vibrational speeds, this toy would suit most anyone. Being completely 100% waterproof, you can bring the Spring into the bathtub or pool for some wet fun! YES!

This is my second Fun Factory toy and I am so in love with their material already - which is the most amazing, velvety, plushest silicone ever! The toy is firm, but when pressure is applied to the surface there is some give to it. This toy is completely body-safe because silicone is non-porous, hypo-allergenic, and free of nasty latex & phthalates. The base of the toy is made of smooth plastic, and body safe as well. It has no smell or taste, even right out of the box. The Spring is very smooth except for the cute little flower patterns embossed in the silicone for some added texture and stimulation. I can't feel them internally but they could maybe be felt by someone with a more sensitive vagina. There is a moderate amount of surface drag so I do recommend lubing up with your favorite water-based lubricant. This material tends to collect lint and dust like crazy so be sure to give it a good rinse before using.

The Spring is a cunning little thing measuring at only 5 1/2" with an insertable length of about 4". The motor spans most of the length of the shaft leaving about 3/4" of soft squishy silicone. I noticed the vibrations don't transmit very well to the tip on the lower settings. However, the vibrations can be felt throughout the whole body of the toy. It has a slight curvature to the body and it somewhat flattens on one side of the tip with an embossed flower pattern. I'm sure this is meant for extra stimulation if rubbed on the clit and can be felt when some pressure is applied with a circular motion. There are a few other smaller flower patterns on the shaft well. I do not feel these internally however, they may be felt by someone with a more sensitive vagina. There is nothing intimidating about the Spring and it is a great introductory vibe for beginners, and perfect for the advanced users who prefer smaller toys along with some great clitorial stimulation. With a diameter of 1 3/4" and a circumference of 4 1/4", this is going to be plenty filling for most.

This mini vibe is much easier to hide than other larger toys, making it discreet in size and easy to travel with. It can be placed in a toy pouch and easily slipped into a purse or tucked in a travel bag.

The Spring charges via a 'Click-n-Charge' system. The wall adapter with a small disc at the other end that magnetically "clicks" to the base of the toy by aligning the words "FUN". The disc lights up while charging and will turn off when the toy is fully charged. However, the charge can easily be disconnected with the slightest bump. It can be a bit frustrating trying to position the toy just right and sometimes requires me to prop the toy up on something else to keep the connection. However, you won't have to worry about this minor flaw often because it holds a charge for quite a long time. I've used it at least a good couple dozen times before it lost its charge. There was no warning that the power was running low, the intensity remained quite strong until it just abruptly stopped. Recharge for about 4 hours - Be sure not to overcharge this toy.

Because of the magnetic charging feature, the Spring has no battery compartment and no other little holes or ports for things to plug into meaning it's 100% waterproof and can be completely submerged in water. I've taken this toy into the shower and bathtub and it has performed wonderfully. The shower water actually drowns out the vibrations making it a very discreet toy for the shower. The bathtub has become my favorite place to use this toy.

The Spring is very easy to operate. The two control buttons are located at the bottom of the silicone shaft and are easily accessible. You can easily hold the vibe and control the buttons with one hand. However, if you intend on inserting the full 4" insertable length, the buttons will be submerged in your vagina, leaving very little length to hold onto. To turn it on, you simply press and hold the plus button for about three seconds. I like this feature as the toy can't get a mind of its own and decide to turn itself on. Continue to press the plus button and you will increase the steady vibration speeds. There are about 8 speeds ranging from a light flutter to a nice strong deep rumble. Press and hold the plus button again for about two seconds and it will jump you to the patterns. Then by pressing the plus button it will scroll you through the three sets of pulsing patterns. Press the minus button you will jump back to the steady vibrations and back down to the beginning with subsequent presses. Press and hold the minus for about three seconds again and she will shut off. Unfortunately there is no designated 'emergency off' button, but holding down the minus button does turn the toy off relatively quickly.

If you're looking for interesting patterns this vibes doesn't has them, however, it does have a good amount of power. The vibrations are awesomely rumbly. The lowest setting is virtually silent and is going to be too gentle for most to get any real pleasure from. On the highest it's definitely going to be heard through blankets and a closed door. They are strong and deep, and the patterns are thuddy. It definitely gets me off without wanting much more.

The Spring is made of silicone and completely waterproof making care and maintenance pretty easy. This toy allows you to submerge it making it easy to clean it with warm water and an antibacterial soap. You can also wipe it down with a toy wipe or your favorite toy cleaner. I prefer the good ole fashion soap and water scrub for a really good cleaning. I normally only use toy cleaners and wipes before using the toy to remove any dust and such and for quick cleanups for when water isn't available at the time. Also, be sure to clean extra carefully around the embossed patterns as I noticed gunk can easily build up. If you must sterilize it it you can wipe it down with a 10% bleach solution. Do not boil or place in the dishwasher because it will ruin the mechanism of the toy.

This vibe is quite small in size and can be stored just about anywhere. It is a dust magnet so keep that in mind. You may want to slip it in a toy pouch to keep it safe from dust and away from other materials in your toy box that could harm the silicone. If you have the space, the original box works well for storage.

A Friendly Reminder: The Spring is made of silicone so remember to use a water-based lubricant ONLY.

The Spring comes packaged in an attractive box with a magnetic closure flap on the front which when opened reveals the toy as well as some information about the toy. Included in the box were a sample of Fun Factory's ToyFuild water-based lubricant and two information pamphlets. One is about the Spring specifically and the other is about their product lines. They are written in six different languages and very informative. The box isn't much bigger than the toy itself, it doesn't take up much space and would be great for storage. The presentation is nice and perfect for gifting.

The hefty price tag may steer you away from this toy but I assure you it is well worth it! If you have the spare dough, I totally recommend this toy. Despite its minor charging flaw, this toy still deserves 5 stars. Any other toy, I would have taken away a star.

The bathtub has always been my favorite place to masturbate. The only problem was that I could never find a completely waterproof toy. They have always failed the water test or were only "splash proof". Pffft. The Spring is now the toy that I bring to the tub every time I have a bath. I can now masturbate without worrying about getting water in the battery compartment and can fully concentrate on my orgasm.

I have discovered that I like to start at about the fourth steady speed, working my way up to the highest speed. While I was climaxing I accidentally held in the plus button which brought me to the patterns. It gave me a mind blowing orgasm - I can almost say it was the THE best clitoral orgasm I've ever had!
