LAYAspot by Fun Factory

The first thing that struck me about the LAYAspot was its size. It is very small, smaller than I was expecting from the pictures. It fits nicely in the palm of my hand, rather like a computer mouse, but far more slender and tapered, and with more of a curve. The design of this toy makes it both ideal for cupping and stimulating your pelvic curve as well as holding in your hand. This is definitely one of the most comfortable toys I own to use during extended play sessions.

The LAYAspot hooks down over your pelvic bone and stimulates the clit and labia. It stays in place pretty well, and can easily be used hands free; this also makes it ideal for use with other toys or during partner intercourse, since it is small enough not to get in the way. It operates on 2 AAA batteries, and is controlled by 2 simple push buttons located on the top of the toy. The “+” button escalates through several speeds and 3 patterns of pulsation; the “-” button toggles the pulsation feature off and decreases the speed of vibration. The vibrations themselves range from barely a purr to quite powerful; the toy is fairly quiet, however, even at its highest setting--definitely not silent, but nothing that would wake the neighbors. The buttons are not overly sensitive, so you do not have to worry about accidentally turning off the toy; however, I often found my finger resting naturally on the “-” button, so I sometimes had a tendency to slow it down when I actually wanted to speed it up.

The toy, as I said, can be used hands-free, but I personally preferred to apply some pressure over the clit area with a slight rotating motion. The vibe is strong enough to work through clothing at higher settings, but I found my favorite way of using it was to apply a little lube and just allow the vibe itself to warm me up until I was really ready to go. The motor is located in the tip that rests on the clit, and the hard material applies a good amount of pressure on your sensitive spots.

The LAYAspot is made of hard plastic and silicone, and is easy to clean and waterproof (thought I have not tried submerging mine). The batteries fit in securely under a screw-on cap located well away from the controls. I received mine in the black-and-silver color combination, which is not as cute as some of the others, but definitely quite sleek looking. It is also small and discreet enough it would be easy to carry along for travel.

The LAYAspot might not produce the most earth-shattering orgasms ever, but it is a reliable, effective, incredibly well designed toy that is a quality investment and would be a welcome addition to any collection.
