First impressions
If there’s one thing I love about this vibe it’s the feel, the soft silicone feels wonderful to the touch and the shaft is very well moulded. It curves very nicely and feels natural, and looks as if it’d hook round a fit on a g-spot perfectly.
I had high hopes for this product but the first use disappointed me. Usually, the first use of any vibe is intense due to the new toy, and the new batteries (which it doesn’t come with, by the way); and this was intense. However, the vibrations, though powerful were a bit too generalised for me. As mentioned in other blog posts, my relationship to love eggs is a complicated one, and the thing I dislike most about then is that because of the shape the vibrations aren’t targeted enough to produce any response other than a general buzz-which can sometimes tickle more than cause pleasure/stimulation. I felt very much the same with this vibrator, the shape is great but it’s not targeted enough to use alone unless you’re very sensitive-in which case you might find the vibrations a bit ‘sharp’ (for want of a better word).
Major Drawback
I can’t give a second attempt/impression for this toy as I haven’t touched it again. I gave it a brief second chance as a clit stim but it didn’t do much that way either (again, too large/not directional enough). The major issue with this is that it became very hot, to the point that I was concerned about the wiring inside. Under the curve, it became exceedingly hot after less than 5 minutes of use. I checked the packing and as always with battery-powered toys, it suggests turning it off if it overheats, but I’ve never had a toy get that hot before. I will, of course, check with Ann Summers and other reviews and see whether this is an issue or whether I picked up a faulty one and update accordingly.
[UPDATE: I took the toy back and at Ann Summers they agreed that it was getting too hot. They offered to replace it or for me to get something else of the same value]
Final thoughts
Overall, I must give it two stars, as a product it just wasn’t right for me and I doubt I’ll use it again, even if mine is faulty I probably wouldn’t use a replacement as it wasn’t directional enough and even became a little irritating after a while. However, I get the impression that with a directional clit stim such as an Ann Summers bullet at the same time, it could achieve some results, but as a standalone toy, I was less than impressed.
