Uses: I prefer to use this toy on my clit and labia, but it could also be used to stimulate other areas, like the nipples or around the anus (though it shouldn’t be inserted anally, since there's nothing to keep them from slipping entirely inside).

Material/Texture: This vibrator is made of hard plastic (latex-free, phthalates-free, hypoallergenic, food-grade; so far as I could tell from the manufacturer's description, it is not nonporous), and it has a velvety texture. The smaller bullet has ridges for grip. It didn’t have any odor when I opened it, and when I’d washed it and checked for taste, there was none. It can be used with any type of lubricant.

Design/Shape/Size: Both of the bullets are about 2” long, and each has a 35” cord which plugs into the power pack. One of the bullets is a regular old oval bullet shape; the other is slim with a small head. The head has a slight tilt and a pointed end. It reminds me a little bit of a spoon, and it provides pinpoint stimulation.

I wouldn’t call this toy discreet; it can’t be disguised as anything else. It’s easy enough to store in the original packaging.

Performance: This is a two-speed toy, but I don’t notice any difference between the speeds when using the smaller bullet. When using the regular one, I found that the lower speed was far too low for me (I prefer pretty strong vibrations). The speed is controlled by a button on the power pack.

The battery life is very good. I didn’t time it precisely, but I always got several hours out of each pair of AA batteries, especially with the smaller bullet (since I generally used it on the lower setting).

Care and Maintenance: Easy to wash up with soap and water. It’s not waterproof, so be careful! You should also be careful about dropping it or otherwise risking scratches and dings – the plastic scratches fairly easily.

Plastic presents minor safety concerns: you can’t sterilize this toy, and it's porous. I would not recommend sharing it with someone with whom you don’t share sexual fluids unless you use some sort of barrier device. However, it is easily cleaned with soap and water after personal and fluid-bonded-partner use.

Packaging: Basic plastic packaging that is good for storage, if a bit bulky. It’s not discreet at all; the label makes it pretty clear what’s inside, and in case there are any doubts, the toy is completely visible.

Personal Comments: I love, love, love the shape and size of the smaller bullet, and the vibration strength is great. If only this toy was more durable, I’d give it a 5-star rating. If you buy this toy, it might last a year, but it might crap out on you in a matter of weeks.

I can take or leave the regular bullet. It works fine, but it’s nothing special – just a bullet. I was in love with the slim one, though! I enjoy precise stimulation, and this small, slightly pointed, angled head is perfect. I can slip it under my clit hood to get my most sensitive spot. Its vibrations had a tighter, smoother feel than the other bullet. I was crazy about it. WAS. It’s already broken.

I actually owned one of these for about a year, up until one year ago, when it broke – first the slim tip, then the regular bullet. I’d used it probably 40-50 times at that point, and my sessions with vibrators last anywhere between five minutes and a couple hours. I was pretty excited to get a second one for my review item. I had really missed that slim-tipped bullet, and I was looking forward to at least another year of it. Unfortunately, after about two weeks, during which I used this toy nearly every day, the wire on the slim bullet weakened, just like before. When I bent the wire to one side (where it attached to the power pack), the power got cut off; when I bent it the other way, it came back on. Over the following weeks, it deteriorated to the point where it was useless. I’m sure the other bullet will go the same way if I keep using it.

One other problem I had with this toy is that when I used the larger bullet, my pubic hair got caught around the base (where the wire goes into the bullet) several times. This was pretty painful. I don’t even have that much pubic hair, so I would imagine that this problem would be even worse for a woman with more of a bush. I didn’t notice this at all with the small bullet.
