The Swirly-Curly Adventure

This toy worked out so much better than I ever imagined that it would. It was more powerful than I expected it to be, and is absolutely gorgeous to look at. I don't think I've ever owned such a pretty toy before.

Use

This is a bullet vibrator that can be inserted, as it is a little bigger than your typical bullet. Mostly, though, I found it useful for clitoral stimulation. Actually, it was a little bit better than just useful. It was phenomenal. I have had my share of favorite bullet vibrators that have all died slowly over the years, but this guy definitely takes the cake.

Material / Texture

This bullet is made of plastic, though it has a soft, velvety touch to it that I absolutely love in my toys. I do love silicone, glass, and other highly safe materials, but when it comes to plastic with that light velvet feel to it, I fall over the deep end. I feel like toys like that know me a little bit better and can hit all the right spots with the right kind of pressure better.

After getting a few other assignments or toys that had a very, very pungent smell (referring to my last review, Smell the Orgasm), I was very pleased that this toy didn't have any kind of discernible smell unless you put it right up under your nose. Then you get a faint whiff of plastic. And I do mean faint. I had to inhale rather deeply to get that smell.

I couldn't place any taste to this toy, either, which is very nice after that last toy. As for the texture, as I said before, it has a lovely velvet feel to it. It's so, so wonderful. There is very little drag to the material and I think would be friendly for any user.

Also, a great pro to this toy is that it is non-porous and phthalate free. Which is absolutely wonderful news for anyone who doesn't like to have to use condoms with their toys, or who shares toys often (but always remember, that if you are going to share toys, to clean the toy between partners, please).

Design / Shape / Size

Talk about pretty! The one that I got is black, and it's a beautiful, smooth, dark coal black. You know, that not quite jet black, but not dark, dark grey? It's absolutely gorgeous. And the light grey swirls and curls that are printed all over it just add a bit of whimsy to this toy. It looks so innocent and sweet; it's hard to tell just by looking at it that it will pack such a punch!

This is a longer, narrower bullet than ones that I have owned or used in the past. In length, this toy is 5 1/2" long. Just long enough for a little insertable fun (which you can insert up to about 4 1/2"). For the circumference, this toy comes in at 2 1/4" while the diameter is at 3/4". Like I said, this toy is pretty narrow, but oh so amazing. Not only that, but also this toy only weighs a tenth of a pound! It's so light! You could toss this beauty in your purse and not feel a thing!

Not only that, but because this toy is so small, it would be so easy to travel with you. Purse, carry-on, checked luggage. Hell, maybe if you even have pockets deep enough, this little guy can sit with you in your pocket. Though, I'm a big fan of using my bra to store things.

I'm not really sure what to say for its discreetness, though. It does have a little push-button at the end to give it power. Because of the designs on it, however, you could probably lightly brush it off as your tampon holder, toothbrush holder, but I really wouldn't expect it to fool very many people as it does still look like an elongated bullet in the long run.

Functions / Performance / Controls

This toy has seven speeds/variations. Vibrating, pulsing, surging, what I like to call a super fast heartbeat. It's amazing. The first three are your typical low, medium, and high vibration settings. Nothing too exciting, but they are very powerful. The next four settings are very interesting indeed. They aren't just your typical surging and pulsating settings. They are slightly different; a little more power rests behind these. I had one 7-speed bullet once that had a surging speed on it that had a two-second delay between when the surge fell and came back again. It actually killed the mood, but this toy picks back up with the powerful surge very quickly after it falls, which actually helped keep me excited. The other pulsing and surging speeds were very interesting. One of them felt a little like a very, very fast heartbeat. You know kind of like after you've just done a lot of cardio and your heart feels like it's about to pound out of your chest? It's like that, but with vibration behind it.

All of these functions are operated by one button at the base of the toy. That is really the only downside of the toy. You have to go through all of the functions in order to turn the toy off. So, if you're one that just likes the medium vibration setting, then, well, you have to push the button another five times to shut it off. It's a little irritating, but really only a minor setback from the awesome feeling of the toy.

The box of this toy claims that it is waterproof! I have yet to actually try it out this way, but when I was cleaning the toy, I did let the light stream of water run over the battery area (which is at the base, just above the push button, complete with small rubber ring to keep out the moisture!), and then turned the toy on afterward. It worked just fine. I am really uncertain about total immersion in the water, so play at your own risk.

I was definitely surprised that this toy was as quiet as it was! The Mood Powerful really does have quite the powerful punch to it, but it is very quiet. I don't think it's "whisper quiet" like it claims, but it is still very quiet and more than likely would not be heard through a closed door unless you had it pressed up between you and something else (like the bed, pillow, wall, but probably not if it were between two people).

This toy does take two AAA batteries, so make sure to add those to your cart if you don't have any.

Care and Maintenance

Caring for this toy is much like the care of any other toy. You can use warm water and soap, your favorite toy cleaner or wipes. Though, you should not boil this toy or stick it in the dishwasher. You could even wipe this toy down with some isopropyl alcohol as the Plastic sex toy material page here on Eden suggests.

I'm currently storing this toy right back in its box as it's easier and the box is actually very small and fits right into the cedar chest that I store all of my other toys in very well.

When it comes to using lubricants with this toy, you are actually wide open in your options because it's made of plastic. You can use water, oil, or silicone lubes with this toy. Which should make everyone happy across the board.

Packaging

This is probably the third toy I've gotten that does not have discreet packaging. The toy is on clear display in the box, though the box is small, black, and looks rather whimsical. However. The box is very tasteful in that there are no half-naked or naked individuals, nor any crude language either, so if the toy were out of the box and the box were just lying around, it may not even cross someone's mind as to what it could be for unless they were taking a closer look at the box.

One thing that I really did like about the packaging, though, is that on the back, it has a list describing different parts of the toy. Under each part, there are colored dots labeled with sub-features. The sub-features that apply to each heading part are dotted with a black dot to denote that this toy has that feature. The heading parts are: features, material, batteries, cleaning, lubricant, and functions. This makes it very easy for one to pick out the toy if they were picking it out off the shelf at a store.

There really aren't any instructions on the packaging for this toy, but since it does only have one button to control it all, it's very easy to figure out, even for a beginner.
    • Good for storage
    • Minimal
    • Recyclable
Follow-up commentary
This is my go-to toy when I want to start the mood off right or when my girlfriend is away at work or other engagements. It is the best, big bullet that I have and I hope that this toy will last me quite a long time.
