I was glad to receive the Cloud 10 Venus Butterfly Strap-on Vibrator by Pipedream, I had heard so much about strap-on vibrators when I was a blossoming teenager, and to finally get to try one was appealing. As with most vibrators, instruction reading is a must! I was glad that it came with cautionary notes as well as information about the product. It seems however, that most of the sex toys I get require loads of batteries! So after shopping for the right batteries for the butterfly, I was ready to get started.

I think it's innovative that sex toy companies use 'cutesy animals' to sway the common populous to try out their sex toy. The general characteristics of the butterfly were exactly what I expected, a butterfly shaped vibrator with an extra extremity (which honestly looks like a long, hooked tail). The straps were strategically placed, no doubt. They were positioned so that they would help keep the butterfly in place. The bumpy nodes added to the torso of the butterfly added an extra sweet touch, but I didn't like the pulsating. It was three quick jolts, and one long one that lasted maybe five seconds. It was hard to become aroused on such quick sparks of vibrations, but the added five-second-long flitter helped. The added extremity was a nice touch; it vibrated constantly and could be set at the desired speed. Also, the extremity could be rested along the anus or used internally, and the constant stimulation helped achieve an orgasm (it picked up where the torso and wings lacked).

Overall, it was a hard orgasm to achieve, but it's a good sex toy to usefor beginners or for those who like to linger in excitement before actually achieving orgasm. I'd suggest using this sex toy to others who are new to the sex toy experience. But for those who know what they want and want a sex toy that will get them there, this toy just didn't measure up to what I had in mind.
