Tantus O2 Luke REVIEW


I’m so far behind the times that it is actually embarrassing to admit that I had yet to try a dual-density dildo. They were always near the top of my wish list, but somehow always came up just short of getting in my cart.

Then Tantus started coming out with one after another drool-worthy versions - O2 Cush, O2 Revolution, and O2 Luke. Sold!

Luke is incredibly realistic, and I was happy to discover, more realistic in color and appearance then his online pics would seem. I thought the head would be super shiny. And while it is a bit shinier than the rest of the matte shaft, it isn’t as pronounced as it looks in the products pictures.

So, basically you have this perfectly sized (7“ long, 2“ diameter) realistic dildo, right down to the veins and tiny ripples in the balls. This alone does not make it special; there’s about a million dildo’s out there that look realistic. But this one has that extra something that the others don’t. It’s made of 100% medical-grade silicone, in a fantastic way that allows it to be both firm in the inside and soft on the outside. So it feels as real as it looks. Tantus refers to this as their “O2” line.

I have mine in cocoa, which is a pretty life-like Caucasian color, I suspect that cream would be too light, but I can’t say for sure. The coloring is solid, unlike cyberskin and other realistics that feature hyper-realistic coloring with pink heads and blue veins. On the positive side, however, the coloring won’t fade like it does on cyberskin.

There really aren’t words to describe the awesomeness of this dual-density stuff. When I give it a squeeze it feels like there’s about a ¼” of squishiness on the outside, and a firm, but flexible core inside. To my hand, this feels squishier than a truly fully-erect penis. But when I’m using it, it feels perfectly realistic. There’s just enough give to feel comfortable, enough firmness to insert easily and angle towards my g-spot, and enough softness to clench down around.

The shaft on this guy is pretty straight, so it’s not the best bet for g-spotting. I prefer to use this as a thruster, or even inserted and just slowly stroked and clenched around. And you won’t understand this until you try it yourself, but it’s amusingly fun to squeeze the squishy head and balls. There are other models with curved shafts and more pronounced mushroom heads, and one of those is definitely on my list for my next O2 excursion.

If you are seeking something realistic and can’t imagine why you should bother paying more for the dual-density silicone over cyberskin, let me clue you in with my comparison chart below:
 
 

CYBERSKINDUAL-DENSITY
COST
$20 - $70
$70 - $120
DESIGN
Ultra-realistic
Ultra-realistic
COLORING
Very detailed, usually w/ pink mushroom head and blue veining
Fantasy tones to flesh tone, but usually a solid color
MATERIAL
Very porous, not able to be sterilized, sharing not recommended
Non-porous. Sterilizable. Able to be shared.
REALISM
Looks incredibly realistic. Usually lacks firm inner core and can be too floppy for some.
Not quite as realistically painted, but feels more realistic in use.
CARE
Soap and water, must be dusted with cornstarch and carefully stored away from other materials.
Boil it. Bleach it. Wash it with soap and water… minimal care needed.
INVESTMENT WORTH
Color fades and porous material will degrade. Average life-expectancy is 1-2 years.
With proper care, will last a life-time.

  
Not that cyberskin isn’t fun, but dual-density is better. You can take my word for it, but I’d suggest getting one and trying it out for yourself.

Consider Yourselves Warned Peeps!


I was cleaning out my closet recently when I came across this pair snuggled up close together. The blue Softee Ballsy Super made of Sil-a-gel, and purple Throbbing Hearts Rabbit of TPE don't belong together (obviously), but the Softee rolled off its shelf and into the box below.


It was a smoking hot love affair, melting the material of the TPE into a gooey, sated mess all over the Sil-a-gel.

Fortunately, neither of these are my favorite toys - hense them being relegated to the closet - but it just goes to show what happens when you don't bother separating your toys, or storing them in pouches. And you thought all those reviews warning you about separate storage and using the right kind of lube was malarkey.

Consider yourselves warned and invest in some pouches!


There a ton of different types. They come in different sizes, different materials, and different thicknesses (for glass toys and other delicate materials). Here are some from a few of my favorite places to buy them:

Couture Inspire by California Exotics REVIEW: Insanely Powerful - Just Get One!

The Couture Inspire has been on my wish list for a very long time. I have the Hitachi… hate it… it’s way too buzzy. I used to have a Wahl and I liked that pretty well with it’s deep vibrations. But then friend turned me on to the Inspire. Insisted that if I liked the Wahl, I’d love the Inspire. I wish listed it immediately, but it wasn’t until Cal Exotics repackaged it with two of their new attachments that I about came out of my seat and begged to be sent it.

And it was worth the wait. Unless you count the head-slapping at having waited so long. Seriously, do yourself a favor, finish reading my review and then buy one. Immediately. It’s amazing.

Let me tell you about its fabulousness. First off, it’s not as big, nor as heavy as the Hitachi; It comes it at a mere 7 ½” long. The head is smaller as well, which makes it more favorable for direct clit stimulation. Otherwise, it has the same basic shape - similar round head with flexible neck, similar elongated cone handle - all just in a smaller package.

However, do not - DO NOT - let the smaller size fool you. This is actually more powerful than the Hitachi (or the Wahl). And the vibrations are sooo much better. With the Hitachi, I always feel like my clit is being surface buzzed to death. With the Inspire, the quality is so much better. The vibrations are deeper and more rumbly.

You have one button on the Inspire. Push it once to turn it on, then hold it down to get it to the desired power level. Push it once quickly to shut it off. Because you have to hold it down, I have been unable to count an exact number of levels it has, but there really is something for everyone. It takes nearly a full 10 seconds to escalate fully from the lowest level to the highest. The first level alone feels incredible; like the deep, slow rumble of a washing machine. As you hold the power button down, the vibrations become a little higher in pitch and immensely more powerful. Let me put it like this…. This is the only vibe I have that I don’t use on the highest setting (about half power). It’s that powerful. Suck it, Hitachi!


















But that’s not the only awesomeness. It also comes with two accessory heads (there are more available, sold separately) made of the same super velvety PU-coated plastic, but softer and more flexible. The first is shaped kinda like Jimmyjane Form 2, with two long ears that can wrap around the clit. I love this accessory and use it more with it than the regular head, which is also awesome. The second has a long g-spot plug with two bumpers one either side. They can be turned up and down to stimulate the clit and anus simultaneously, or turned side-to-side to stimulate the labia. I prefer the former. I find that the g-spotter is not quite long enough to hit my g-spot direct on.


I do tend to use it a bit higher with the accessories than I do with the regular head to compensate for the diffusion in the vibrations. It’s a mild diffuseness at best, but it gets so powerful anyway that even with the longer heads it does not lack for power. Rather, my complaints with other wands is that once you put the “heads” on, the vibrations become weak and diffused, making it hard to orgasm. Yes, there is some diffusion because it travels a little further, but not very much, and what does occur is easy enough to compensate for by just powering it higher.

A couple more things worth emphasizing: This is a corded product. That is what I love about it- no need for batteries, endless power supply, immensely more powerful than battery powered vibes. It is also more discreet than standard vibes and perfectly suitable for full body and non-sexual massage. Or forced-torture S/M.


On that note, not only is this corded, but it also plugs in via a jack-pin at the base. This is both good and bad. On one hand, it does make it easier to clean, and easier to untwist the cord. On the other hand, it does make it easier to accidentally pull too hard and unplug it. I haven’t had this problem too often in regular use, but it did happen once while using it on my husband.

Second, while this toy is not as loud as the Hitachi or my Cone, it’s not a quiet toy either. It would be possible for this to be heard through a closed door.

But anyway, enough gushing, you’ve made it to the end of my review. Now get over to one of my favorite stores and buy this immediately. When you finally resurface you can send a note and thank me.

Tenga Lover's Edition Egg REVIEW



I have the cutest idea for Easter; a Tenga Lover’s Edition Egg! Okay, maybe I wasn’t the first to think of it (Tenga), but I’m rolling with it anyway. I’ve already had the chance to review one the wavy Eggs, and you should revisit that review for all the wonderful little details about them.

The Lover’s Edition Egg is a little different than the regular one mostly in looks. First, it comes in a black shell instead of the standard white. While this makes it look sexier in my estimation, it would also make it really stand out in an Easter basket. But what really had me delighted was the detailing of the Egg itself.
The first Egg I tried was milky white and semi-opaque. This Egg is transparent with heart shapes scattered throughout the material! It is absolutely adorable! The clear material also gave me a better view of my husband’s penis during use- so sexy. This Egg did seem to have a little less texture than the last one, but felt just as good.

Obviously, this Egg had the same disadvantages as the first one I tried. Namely, that it is a disposable toy. However, I had better luck with this one lasting through a couple of uses. Probably because I was a little gentler with it than the previous one.

None the less, this Egg is adorable, whether for Easter, an anniversary, or just because. Especially being marketed as more of a couple’s toy, I think that makes it seem more worth the $10 it cost. I mean, I usually drop $50 on lingerie for a special occasion. When I think of it that way, this is actually more economical, even though the uses are limited.

Fusion Double Impact silicone/water-based lube hybrid REVIEW

 
 
Fusion Double Impact, how I love thee, let me count the ways.

I may as well start at the beginning. Forget the pretty flower packaging that no man wants gracing his nightstand; Fusion comes in a 2 fl. Oz. black bottle with a silver label that has a metallic red “Fusion” on the side. In tiny words on the bottom it does say lubricant, but someone would have to pretty much pick it up and be snooping to notice it. If I spotted this sitting on someone's coffee table, I'd conclude it was some sort of glue or something. So thank you, Fusion, for catering to those of us who like discretion in their toys. And who like a lube that looks bad-ass instead of pretty. Oh yeah, and the push-top cap that delivers the perfect pea-sized amount of lube every time with no worry of spillage.

Of course appearance is only superficial. But I was also blown away with performance!

For me, this lube just does it all. I never have to stop and think, “crap, I grabbed the wrong lube for this toy/situation/whatever“. It works for anything. Everything. It may not be the best at everything, but it's a jack-of-all-trades.

When it first comes out it seems more like a water-based lube. It piles a pea-size dollop on my hand that stays formed in a small hill that doesn't really spread. I like this; I hate runny, messy lubes. And it really held up to all the different ways I want a lube to work for me.

First I used it in conjunction with some lotion to give my husband a back rub. Often I find myself adding just a tad of silicone lube when I'm putting lotion on him because it makes my hands glide a little easier and the lotion from soaking in as quickly. I would say it worked a bit better for me in this area than others I've tried, but it does seems a bit wasteful to use my good lube for something like this, so I only tried it the once.

As a finish to any good back massage I used it to lube my husband up for an old-fashioned hand-job. Again, I appreciated the wetness and thicker texture that the water-based lube added to the long-lasting effect of the silicone. Even as the water-part starts to absorb into the skin, the silicone kept my skin from dragging on his. I still prefer the Boy Butter for a good hand-job, but I hate the way it tastes so it limits our play.

Once the majority of the lube had dried up, probably a good 10-15 minutes or so, I decided to have a taste. There is no odor to this, and no taste, but on the tip of my tongue it gives a slight… sensation? It is like a very mild version of putting your tongue on the end of a 9V battery. It only lasted the first 10 seconds or so and was gone. Maybe it's just me, my husband didn't notice it, but I did. None the less, it really didn't add or detract from me being able to give him oral. It's definitely not designed to be used for oral sex, get yourself something flavored for that, but it won't be a total turn-off if you decide mid-play you want to.

For myself and sex-play, it was more universal. On my clit I like the wet slipperiness of water-based lubes, which Fusion mimics very well. But it lasts longer. And it plays well with my Eroscillator and my MiMi (Adoring sigh).

Internally, it really shines. The thickness lubes my toys and my husband up perfectly to enter me, and keeps things slick, but without the sopping, dripping excess of water lubes. I only need a couple pumps and it lasts me however long I want to go, and I swear, it works with my own juices so it feels natural. I haven't tried this anally, but I imagine it would work quite well.

Of course I did the patch test on a couple of my silicone toys (Lelo, Vanity, and Jimmy Jane - I'm brave, I know) and not one hint of bonding between the materials. Success! Nor did the clear formula stain the sheets. Any amount that dripped onto the bed just disappeared once dry.
 
Below are the ingredients as found on the label, but the descriptions are provided by me (and google) based on commonly known uses, and not provided by the manufacturer.
Propylene Glycol- a solvent and emulsifier that can be irritating to skin in some people. DionizedWater- water, with no ions. Cyclopentasiloxane- silcone known for its ability to lubricate and waterproof. Butylene Glycol- used as solvent and viscosity decreasing agent in cosmetics and personal care products. Dimethicone- type of silicone which is non-toxic and helps lubricate. Vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer- conditions, controls viscosity, forms a protective film. Hydroxyethyl Acrylate- a gelling agent that thickens, emulsifies, and stabilizes products and solutions. It is very easy to use in liquid form and provides a sensation of freshness followed by a melting effect on contact with the skin. It leaves a feeling of velvety softness. Sodium Acrylol Dimethyl Taurate Copolymer- Synthetic polymer used as a stabilizing and suspending agent and as a thickening agent.
Cyclohexasiloxane- Primarily works as a skin conditioning agent and emollient. Like all other silicones, this ingredient has a unique fluidity that makes it easily spreadable. When applied to the skin, it gives a silky & slippery feeling to the touch and acts a mild water repellent by forming a protective barrier on the skin.
While nothing jumps out at me as something that might cause yeast infections, some of the alcohol containing ingredients could cause irritation in individuals sensitive to them. I didn't have any problems, but that's just me and everyone is different.

After use, I found the product wipes away easily with water if it hasn't soaked in to the skin yet. If it has soaked in, it leaves a clean feeling with no residue. On toys, it washes off easily with soap and warm water.

I highly recommend giving this lube a try!

First Time Mini G by California Exotics REVIEW

 
 
Granted, I'm a long way past my first time, but I still appreciate discretion. The First Time Mini-G comes in a clear plastic package with the toy as the main display. In the background is a partially clothed woman and the name of the toy and Cal Exotics label on the front. In short, if you really value your privacy about anyone guessing what you bought (especially as many first timer's don't live alone!), you will have to be very careful about opening and disposing of the packaging.

What I do like about the First Time is the material. Plastic is universally friendly. It is hypo-allergenic, phthalate and latex-free. It can be used with any type of lubricant, and is only slightly porous, so it rates pretty well on the safety scale. And what I really, really like is the soft-touch coating which makes the plastic feel velvety soft. On dry skin it glides smoothly (my nipples love it), but as you head down south a little extra lube goes a long way as it will tend to catch more than regular plastic on semi-moist areas. So I would have been decently excited in the choice of material- if they hadn't left a huge seam running right down the middle of the toy. Not only is there a seam, which normally doesn't bother me too much, but it came with a gouge where it didn't seem to fit together well.

The design is pretty typical for a g-spot toy, and I guess the slimness is what is supposed to make it good for newbies. Basically, you have a straight toy with no texture anywhere, that curves at the neck into a bottle-nose dolphin shape. It's a good size curve, about a full 45°, which is perfect for angling up towards that g-spot- but annoying for those who can't stand pin-point pressure against it, or tend to feel like many toys snag the pubic bone. I didn't find fault with this, but at a measly 4 ½” of insertable length and a 1” diameter, though maybe it's meant to not intimidate, for me it just made it pretty boring.

But those weren't the only the cons for me. Especially since this doesn't leave much room to hold onto the end of, with the control being the twist cap at the base. I prefer a bit more of a handle on my toys, and I did find myself accidentally adjusting the setting when I was using it. Further, with the perfectly round shape shaft, the toy tends to get twisted to the side and it's hard to figure out which way to turn it to get it back without taking it out and readjusting it. The only good thing about the control is that it is a textured cap, so it doesn't make it a bit easier to grip.

Now I will concede that, sure, some people won't mind the smaller size, and of course, maybe not all of them have a gouge in the seam, but I'm not sure if anyone is going to want to look past the complete lack of power. Especially since it sounds like it should be powerful! This toy is louder than my husband's electric razor, yet the vibrations were so diffuse that they didn't pack a punch no matter how I tried to use it. I can't complain they were buzzy, but they were just completely underwhelming.

First I tried it on my clit, but that was a complete fail. It just ended up making me feel like I needed something that would actually do the trick. Then I tried inserting it. It did hit my g-spot, but I hate that the shaft was straight rather than curved, as I couldn't stroke it with quite as much pressure as I like. And of course, the vibrations felt weak, and like they were just “there”, rather than feeling like they were stimulating me.

The only thing that I felt this delivered on was its being waterproof. Used it in shower with no issues and have successfully submerged to clean with no wet batteries.

I still suggest removing the batteries prior to cleaning with soap and water or toy cleaner, and storing in a plastic bag or toy pouch. It's not a lint-collector, but it is a bit more hygienic. And by storing without the batteries, you will extend battery life and prevent accidental corrosion.

Leather Nipple Clamps by Spartacus REVIEW

Use

These Leather Nipple Clamps could be used in a variety of ways for either men or women. The clamps are gender neutral and automatically adjustable, though a bit on the stronger side for beginner users and/or for genital stimulation (although still possible).

Material / Texture

The Leather Clamps are comprised of more than just the black, supple leather string that binds the clamps together. The clamps themselves are made of metal and capped with smooth rubber tips. The rubber tips aren't "squishy", but they keep the metal from pinching. While the materials are compatible with water-based lube, using lube would keep the clamps from staying in place, so it is not recommended.

All materials are odorless and hypo-allergenic.

Shape / Design / Size / Fit

The leather string is 12" long, which should be plenty long enough for most users and keeps the clamps together and from getting lost. The clamps themselves are adjustable; in that, like clothes hangers, you pinch one end, the closed end opens and you slide it over the nipples. Release the clamp and it squeezes down onto the nipple.

The clamp opens to 3/4", and while it may fit nipples up to this size, the larger the nipple (clit, scrotum, etc) that is being inserted, the greater the squeeze.

Functions / Performance / Controls

It doesn't vibrate, suck, or do gymnastics. But it works, provided it is a good fit. The rubber cap grips the nipples so that the clamps stay in place even during sex or while being worn under a loose fitting shirt. The clamps will likely fit smaller nipples more completely than large nipples. These are great for men and women with “mosquito bite” size nipples. While it is pretty universal, the depth that this opens up to is only enough to fit my pinkie finger and than slips off a bit, which can lead to an uncomfortably strong pinch.

The pinch is similar in strength to a new clothes pin; strong enough to limit circulation and should only be worn for no longer than 20 minutes at a time. Once released, and blood flow returns, it creates the most incredible throbbing in the nipples.

It is possible to yank the leather cord and pull the clamps from the nipples if you prefer a bit of s/m. But on that same note, it is also possible to accidentally catch the cord on something and pull the clamps unintentionally. And care should be taken either way because the rubber grips are not glued on and the metal underneath is serrated; intended to hold the grips in place, but I shudder to think what would happen to if they were to clamp down bare on the nipples.

Personal comments

I really enjoy these clamps; although I must say, if they were any stronger, I probably wouldn't be able to use them. I have also glued the rubber tips, as I have had them slip off before. Fortunately not while they were on, but the grips are so small they are almost impossible to find once they have went flying. Personally, there is no way I would want to use this to pinch my genitals, but I know many others aren't quite as wimpy as I am in those regards. I'm not certain these are the have all, end all of nipple clamps for me, but they've certainly convinced me to keep trying to find the perfect pair.

Babeland's Burlesque Pasties REVIEW


I’ve always liked the look of pasties, but have never tried them before. About the time they caught my eye I was nursing my first child, and after that I suspected that they might just enhance what was no longer as perky as it used to be. But Babeland was offering up a really pretty pair of Burlesque Pasties, so I talked myself into trying them anyway.

Surprisingly, because this so rarely happens, I was wrong. The pasties, which are almost 2 ½” in diameter, made them look a bit higher. How? I’m glad you asked. With the ample room, I just positioned the bottom of the pastie at the bottom of my areola and let the top of the pastie go just a bit higher than my nipple sits. Instant breast lift!

So now I’m sold on the whole thing and have been digging through my lingerie to find the best pieces to show them off. Of course, they look good without anything too and are probably the easiest things to put on under a sedate looking flannel pj to instantly surprise someone.

Here are some lingerie/pastie combo ideas to get you started:

They came in this gorgeous black box with Burlesque printed on the top. A tray slides out and the pasties are held within. The pasties are black with black glitter covering the entire shield and a black bow fixed proudly in the center.

To use, just peel the cover off the sticky back and place on the nipple. The sticky part is not so much like a glue as like a tacky gel that allows them to adhere firmly and comfortably, without pulling at all when you take them off. This was one of my biggest worries and it ended up being for naught. This gel also allows for the pasties to be reused multiple times. Just give the back a quick rinse in warm water, lay them down on the counter to dry for a few minutes (do not wipe as it will leave fibers behind that will weaken the stickiness), place the covers back on the back, and put them away.

Vr3 Vanity Rabbit Vibrator by Jopen REVIEW


Move over Lelo, Fun Factory, Jimmyjane, and pretty much every other luxury vibe maker out there. There’s a new line in town; Vanity by Jopen. This is actually an off-shoot of California Exotics, which has been more known to cater to the novelty toy user, though in more recent years they have started to trend toward the more discerning user as well (Couture & L‘Amour lines). But in this case, they’ve really proven themselves. I literally found myself blown away.

The Vanity line consists of twelve vibes; 8 of those 12 are rabbit-style vibes in pretty much every shape and configuration- at least one is going to be a good fit. I was most excited to try #3, 5, or 6. The VR4 would have been my first choice until I found out the clit stimulator didn’t vibrate. Anyway, VR6 is pretty much Ina and I wanted to try something different so I went with VR3.

It ended up being a great choice for me. It was smaller than I expected to my initial disappointment, which makes me realize what a size snob I have become. But this toy defies my snobbiness and makes me feel filled to within an inch of my life in use. How? I don’t know… something between the perfect shape and the immense vibrations? Honestly, I don’t care, as long it keeps doing what it does.

Lets get some of the basics out of the way here before I continue. This entire line, including my Vr3, are completely up to luxury standards. They are 100% waterproof, made of 100% velvety silicone, feature a locking travel button, and are rechargeable.

I’ve heard some people complain about the packaging, which they seem to have actually changed from the original boxes they started in when I first seen them in the toy store. The box mine came with is actually much nicer. You get a white box with a textured stripe pattern and purple writing with Vanity and Vr3 on the front. No sleazy pictures, no indiscreet descriptions, just a classy looking box. The lid lifts off the top and the Vr3 sits cozy in its form that showcases it at the top of the box. With the form lifted out there is a velum note, warranty manual, booklet with other Vanity products, over-sized knit storage pouch, and the charger. Some have complained it’s not as fancy as Lelo or other upscale companies, but I say screw that. First of all, maybe it’s not quite as fancy, but it’s still pretty freaking nice. And what do you really do with the boxes anyway? Mine end up in the closet taking up space. Maybe it’s because I’m not a complete package snob (though I do have standards), but I had no complaints.


Anyway, enough with that rant.

My Vr3 was supposed to be charged 3 hours before use; just wait for it to stop flashing red and glow steady white. I plugged it in via the port in the bottom and happily seen that it was already glowing steady white and ready to use. And even more happily, I found that it maintained this charge through several hours (yes, hours) of use and about 2 months of general stand-by time.

Don’t freak out about the port, the Vr3 is definitely waterproof. Granted, I don’t use it much in the shower or tub because it’s too loud in a body of water and too awkward to hold while standing in the shower, but it does make it easier to clean. And I’ve had enough with finicky magnetic chargers that this came as a welcome relief.

Like I said, this was smaller than I expected. The entire toy 6 ½” long, 4” insertable, and only 1 ½” diameter over the most bulbous part of the head. But the bulb is humped up perfectly to slide past my pelvic bone and slope right up into my g-spot. The more persnickety part is the clit stimulator. Love, love, love that it is shaped like a curved thumb… but it’s a bit on the short side. It’s less than 2” long, and it’s hard to even get all those inches out of it because of how it is shaped. Now, I’m going lie, it just doesn’t hit me right. I would need it to be at least one inch longer to hit just over the hood of my clit, where I like my toys to sit. If I tip the toy forward a bit, it sits better, but puts less pressure on my g-spot. When I rock it back to really stroke my g-spot, it ends up way too far below my clit. This is part of the female anatomy issue whereby what fits perfectly for one may not be quite right for another.

For the slight mismatch I shouldn’t like it as much as I do, but the vibrations are fucking amazing. I mean, powerful, squirt-inducing, OMFG amazing vibrations. No other toy I have comes close to comparing. Or close in power. And the vibrations are deep. And rumbly- my favorite. They are less powerful and not quite as deep in the clit stim, but since it doesn’t hit me quite right, I don’t notice it as much anyway. And don’t get me wrong, the clit stimulator is pretty freaking powerful- just not as much as the shaft. Ina, my previous love, doesn’t get the time of day anymore.

There are two buttons that control the motors- one for the clit stim, one for the shaft. At first they caused me a little aggravation because they work the absolute opposite of most toys. Hold them down to increase the power, but a regular push shuts it off. However, once I got used to it, I actually like it far better. I now wish every vibrator was made like this because in the event you need to shut your toy off quickly, you just push it and it’s off immediately. No pissing around trying to hold it down long enough, or “oh shit”, held it down too long and now it turned back on and I’m about to get walked in on at any second. Yeah, way better. The bad? The only way to decrease the vibrations is to shut that portion off and start over.
The vibrations are very quiet, but there are no patterns. This strictly features multiple speeds. I don’t miss them in this toy. The vibrations work perfectly at a constant buzz.

I would love to give this toy my 5 star HOT rating, but I have to take something away for the fact that the clit stimulator is too short for me. Quality-wise, I am beyond impressed. Function-wise, it literally leaves me gasping. I am in love with this toy and this line. I also have the Vr10 (reviewing coming soon, I promise!) and that clit stimulator hits me perfectly. That’s the beauty of this line, there’s something for everyone.
