Buzz on Vibes

Remember last Friday when I mentioned that I received some new sex toys from Evolved Novelties to review? Well, included in that box was a Silky G vibe, which is part of their Fleur De Lis collection and is similar to the Bliss I’ve previously reviewed. Both vibes are around the same size, have 3 speed of constant vibration, and feature that velvety surface I love so much on hard plastic toys. Only instead of the 4 rounded, wave-like ripples at the top of Bliss, Silky G just has two bulges and a tapered, curved tip. Read more…

Not too long ago I received a generous care package from Evolved Novelties, and the reviews for those products will be posted soon. But while testing them out, I got to thinking about the other Evolved vibrators I’ve reviewed and realized that I hadn’t used those in a long time. Curious to know if I’d still like them as much, I soon found myself distracted by my Croupier, which became an instant favorite the first time I used it, way back in June of 2010. Read more…

I was so impressed with the Butterfly Kiss when I reviewed it that I honestly thought I would love Pipedream’s Classix 10 Function Japanese G Spot vibe, despite the long and inexplicable name. I still don’t know what’s Japanese about it. Anyway, this sex toy is similar in design to a Butterfly Kiss, only it’s larger with a wider and bulbous shaft. There aren’t any fun flappy wings on the platform that serves as a clit stimulator, but instead it has some raised bumps on its surface. Read more…

With the end of 2011 looming before me, I’ve been thinking about which products I’d like to feature in my Top 10 of 2011 list. The DeLight Click ‘n’ Charge was last year’s top pick, and while I distinctly remembering that I definitely wanted it to have the #1 spot, I honestly couldn’t recall why. That’s how long it’s been since I’ve played with the poor neglected vibe! So I dug out my Fun Factory Click ‘n’ Charge cable, dusted off my DeLight, and spent some quality time getting reacquainted with an old favorite. Not only did I need to be reminded why I loved it, I figured I was more than past due for a Follow-Up Friday post. Read more…

I’m finally going to review the LELO Gigi. I’ve coveted this vibe ever since it hit the market, and I finally picked one up on sale somewhere months ago. But, I had pending reviews for products that I didn’t pay for to finish first, so I only just recently got around to testing this lovely little vibe.

Gigi is a highly effective G-spot sex toy. The head is very similar to a Starlet Toyfriend, only smaller, and the shaft is thinner with more of a curve. Read more…

Around this time last year I reviewed the Harmonia G-spot vibrator, and although I really liked it, I haven’t played with it much since I posted the review. When I did my sex toy cull not too long ago, I happened upon Harmonia, still in its original box, at the bottom of my secret storage container. This is most definitely nota vibe to throw out. So, I recycled the packaging and moved Harmonia (now safe in its storage pouch) to a more accessible location, resolving to use it again very soon and post a Follow-Up Friday.

I used to have a Cupid Kiss. It was my first textured vibe, and I bought it on sale for around $20. It had something like 8 different patterns, was waterproof, and covered in soft TPR silicone with ridges. Unfortunately, it was a battery drainer, lint magnet, and quit working after only a few months. Not long after, I noticed that Fun Factory had a very similar product called Meany. As soon as I had enough EdenFantasys.com points saved up, I got one. Read more…

Remember a few weeks ago when I sadly reported in a Follow-Up Friday post that my Starlet Toyfriend was no longer working? Well, as it turns out I was right about something being wrong with the button. Once I figured out what, I was able to fix it, and the good news is that the motor still works just fine.

See, there’s a silicone sleeve that covers the plastic cap to the battery compartment. Inside this sleeve is a silicone nub that hangs down. Read more…

I’m honestly not on a personal mission to acquire all the Click ‘n Charge Minivibes from Fun Factory. But I totally love the Bimini Flash and Spring, so I’m happy to try any others that come my way, and when I saw Angelo up for review from GoodVibes.com, I had to request one. Read more…

There are many attachments available for the Hitachi Magic Wand, but I’ve only ever tried the Gee Whiz by Vixen Creations. Made from seamless silicone that has a lovely blue marble swirl pattern, it consists of a modestly sized, flexible shaft on a cap that fits snugly over the Hitachi Magic Wand head.

The Gee Whiz comes packaged in a clear plastic tube that works great for storage. Care and cleaning instructions are printed on the side, and both caps come off the ends of the tube.

I bought my Gee Whiz years ago, not long after I got my Hitachi Magic Wand, but back then I didn’t like it. As effective as the Hitachi is for giving me a clitoral orgasm, I was convinced this attachment would magically locate my G-spot and induce mind-blowing orgasms complete with squirting.

Never mind that at the time I’d never even tried internal vibrations, so I had no clue if I even liked them or not. Nor had I yet managed to locate my G-spot using fingers or anything else. Still pretty much a sex toy novice, I wasn’t quite ready for the Gee Whiz. The Hitachi’s strong vibrations were just too much for me to take internally. So it got pushed into the back corner of my sex toy drawer.

Gee Whiz hung out unused for years. I forgot all about the poor neglected thing. Not too terribly long ago, I was sorting through my sex toy collection and happened upon my Gee Whiz. There’s no motor to dissect, and since it’s made from high quality silicone, I decided to keep it, resolving to use it again and see if I could like it more. No point in having it just take up space.

So, I dusted it off and gave it another try, and I was very pleasantly surprised. I’m a huge fan of dual stimulation vibes, and the cap on the Gee Whiz has a little nub and ridge that’s great for pressing/grinding against, allowing the user to feel the vibrations from the Hitachi head externally while the shaft carries the strong vibrations internally.

I don’t think I would like this nearly as much if it wasn’t made from a soft, flexible silicone, though. I believe a firmer material would make the vibrations too much, but this silicone carries the vibrations well while also softening them just enough. Oh, and it’s great for thrusting.

Since I started reviewing sex toys, I’ve learned a lot about my body, which has led me to explore new forms of stimulation. I’ve also realized that some sex toys have more of a learning curve to them, but the time and patience invested in figuring them out is usually well rewarded. That’s definitely the case for me with the Gee Whiz. I love this thing now. It takes a powerhouse and turns it into a strong dual stimulation sex toy. It’s just too bad that because it’s used with the Hitachi, it also suffers from the same drawbacks, such as the loud noise and limiting power cord.

First off, let me just say that I sincerely hope I was unlucky and got a lemon. I say this because my Starlet Toyfriend no longer works. I reviewed this vibe in April, which was only 4 months ago. I expect my sex toys to last longer than that. Read more…

Let me fill you guys in on what happened with my Lelo Iris. I guess I should explain that I don’t remember exactly when I last used this vibe, but I think it was late last summer. Back when my sex toy collection consisted of nothing more than an Iris, a Hitachi Magic Wand, a Pocket Rocket Jr, and a few Liberator Shapes, my Iris got more action than any of the others.

Last year Pipedream sent me a WOW 1 to try, and being a fan of rabbit-style vibes, I thoroughly enjoyed reviewing it. Back then, they only had 3 vibes in the WOW! line, but now there are 6 to choose from. Recently I received a WOW 4 from Pipedream, and unlike the other WOW vibes, this one isn’t a dual stimulation sex toy. It’s more like a classic-style vibrator, only its shape and design resembles an oversized finger.  Read more…

I think the Starlet Toyfriend is an awesome vibrator, and I’m so glad that I requested one from GoodVibes.com to review. For starters, it’s covered in the same silicone that I raved about on the Bunny Toyfriendbecause it feels so incredibly soft and silky. Also, the motor is nice and quiet. I love that. This vibe also comes with batteries and a cool little stand. It’s waterproof, so you can use it just about anywhere, and it’s easy to clean. Read more…

I’m a huge fan of Evolved Novelties. Their sex toys are well designed, made from body-friendly materials, and affordably priced. The Bendable You Too is a recent addition to their product line, and since it’s a dual-stimulation vibe, I was excited to receive one from Fascinations to review. Read more…
