Ina Garden of Eden? I'm No So Sure.

Ina offers sophistication and grace where other rabbit vibrators fall short. Ina does it in a smaller package, too. Yet, there are certain quirks about this vibrator that do not make it a good choice for all or even most bodies. Beware the pointy, pinching clitoral stimulator.

extremely useful review
Ina is Lelo's take on a dual stimulator and is both sleeker and smaller than traditional rabbit vibrators. Right out of the box (Lelo's traditional packaging has changed; the toy itself is in a plastic and cardboard display that rests upon the storage structure of a sturdy cardboard box), I knew I was in for something different.

Ina takes cues from other Lelo toys; her base is a shiny, white plastic with digital buttons while the functional portions of this vibrator are a firm silicone (the shaft has zero give while the clitoral stimulator has limited flexibility). I ordered mine in purple but you can choose orange or green, too.

This vibrator measures about 8" from tip to tip and just under 4 of those inches are insertable. The shaft has a unique shape the widens slightly toward the center, while curving toward your G-spot. In use, I found the shaft provided more than adequate G-spot stimulation.

I was less impressed with the clitoral stimulator, however. It seems quite long, at around 2", but it has a very particular shape. The combination of the firmness, with the pointed design and the fact that the clitoral stimulator curves toward the shaft and you have a possible painful situation. Like others, I experienced some major pinching from the clitoral stimulator (which just fell short of my clit anyway). It was a very focused, pressure and didn't feel comfortable in the slightest. I tried to work around this by pushing the clit stimumlator back with a finger but that didn't work well with my anatomy. I could adjust the pressure by pulling the base/handle up and forcing the clitoral stimulator away from the shaft but this took away from G-spot stimulation.

Which is a shame because, as I said, the shape works well and I enjoy Ina's vibrations. Each part has a separate motor and the functions allow the parts to work in cooperation or independently. There are steady vibes, pulsation, back and forth pulsation, installation modes and more. I'm usually part of the "less is more" camp when it comes to having lots of settings but I really found almost all of the settings on Ina to be effective. No toy has made me squirt more.

The vibrations are pretty rumbly, in some settings (pulsation and steady vibration). However, they're much buzzier in others: escalation. The combination of the two motors produces a synergistic effect; Ina feels much more powerful than it is. I also own the Mona, which feels significantly weaker than Ina even though the only difference is the clitoral stimulator/extra motor. Ina does all this with surprising quiet, too.

Ina is easy to use. Pressing the + button turns it on and increases the vibration strength while pressing the - button decreases strength until, eventually, it turns the vibrator off. Holding them both at once locks it (in the "Off" setting) but, because the buttons are more difficult to push than some Lelo toys, I hardly find this necessary. I'd rather see it lock while it's "On." There is are two arrow buttons, one that points up and the other, down. These page through the different modes themselves. As I mentioned, I sometimes have to press the buttons two or more times to get the settings to change.

The entire control pads lights up when you press any button. It supposedly glows red to alert you when you need charging, but I have yet to experience this. I've charged Ina a time or two because it seems to start dying fairly quickly (after about 30 minutes) and the red light has not yet made an appearance. The control panel will blink when you connect Ina to the charger and plug it into the wall. Lelo claims 2 hours charging time, after which the light will shut off.

Because Ina contains silicone, use only water-based lubes. The silicone has a very silky feel to it, which may require you to use less lube than sticky or velvety silicone.

Ina's charging port has a secure cover, which makes washing with soap and water much easier than older Lelo toys that had no cover over their ports. However, this vibrator is not waterproof and you should not submerge it.

After drying, I store Ina in the included satin bag. Ina slides in easily and the bag cinches for security. I much prefer this to the bulky box for storage; although you might not.

    I think your might be defective. Mine lasts for more than an hour and I've seen the red light.

    Tuesday, I don't think it's defective. I just think I can really tell when it starts dying. It's the exact same way for me with Mona.

    Hmmm. I really want this because it is rechargeable and I love dual action vibes. But sad that you had trouble with yours. Thanks for the review.

    I am a big fan of rabbit vibes but Ina has proven to be painful/uncomfortable for most
  • Contributor: Sammi
    I'm still not enamored with the stimulator on this one - it only works for me one way, and not how I'd hoped.

    Great review!
