Thanks for the tip about the charging noise! Excellent review!

Great review! I've been thinking about getting this, but I wouldn't be able to use it often since it's so loud and I rarely get the house to myself. I've noticed the same charging noise with the Pocket Fairy if I charge it while I'm trying to sleep.

Great Review.

Great review, thank you!

ok, that noise issue scares me, not sure my dog would appreciate it. Would love to find a hitachi like wand though as for some reason they tend to blow up in Australia (even if you use the right transformers etc)

Thanks for the great review.

I, too, have been searching for something to rival my Hitachi and have been looking at this toy. Glad I read your review before making a final decision. The noise would bother me, so I'll keep looking. Thanks for the great review!

How long do you think the charge lasts on the Fairy Wand?

I'm putting this on my wishlist. eeeeh, good review!

thanks for the review

Thank you!

Weird - I have the Rechargeable Fairy and find it much less bothersome in the noise department than the Horrid Hitachi, as I call it. I've also never heard the whining sound while charging that you mentioned, not with any of the 4 various rechargeable Fairy products I've had. I guess my ears must be broken or something. Also, I've found my Rechargeable Fairy's charge tends to last closer to 40+ minutes and it does work while charging. I just feel blessed I've had such amazing luck with the Fairys, seeing as how I know many people have a terrible time getting them to hold a charge. Le sigh, I think these are just weird, unpredictable, erratic toys and no one person's experience can necessarily be judged against another's. For instance, I threw away my Hitachi one I got this. Then again, I'd kinda gotten to the point where I detested the thing anyway, but that's another story. Anyway, excellent review regardless of my vastly differing experience. I HAVE been to a TON of concerts - my brother's a musician/sound mixer/sound engineer and there's an amazing music scene in general where I live, plus I'm a music junkie - so maybe that's the sound thing. Eh, who knows? Different strokes for different folks (pun intended). Great details, great description, great personal account of experience, etc. Thanks for a great review.
