Does anybody out there own one of these, or one from the line period. the prices are a little jaw dropping for the size and the design. Yeah there cute, but Jesus, there's nothing really special about them. Would like to hear from actual owners before I buy one.

I have the Spirit. It's fairly powerful and the silicone is high quality. Power Bullets are usually pricey (the motor in these as well as the Jopen line). The Spirit is really ergonomic - the most ergonomic vibrator I own, in fact. That's its high point for me.

The down sides are that they aren't as strong as cheaper brands and the battery life is short.

They have several luxury-vibe features.

Not everything pricey is mind-blowing. Perhaps they spent a lot on research and development and need to recoup it.

Rechargeable Lithium ion batteries are expensive.

Therefore, rechargeable vibrators are expensive. This is true across all brands and designs.

Can someone do a search and find the cheapest rechargeable vibe? I'm guessing there won't be one under $~80.

I agree that these are priced high but they are a luxury vibe. As mentioned in other comments above the battery and the power bullet likely contribute to the cost. Also most if not all luxury vibe come with a 1 year warranty against defect. I imagine that this also contributes to the high price. Also most silicone products have a higher price tag suggesting that it's not a cheep material. The technology used to develop this product may also be contributing to the price.

The Leaf line is overpriced compared to what it's offering compared to similar products.

I spent $91 on mine and am not unhappy. I feel this is more in-line with what they're actually worth - $80-100.

Touch vs the life. One just seems a little bigger in diameter.

There are also advertising that they are an eco-friendly sex toy as well, the materials or methods used could have increased the price point.
