Lia pleasure O - discreet massager discontinued by Cal Exotics - review by Mwar

The Lia Pleasure "O" is a discreet vibrator with a distinctive loop at the end of it. It is best used for clitoral stimulation, but it can be used as a teaser along the skin. It can also encircle the nipples in addition to the clitoris. Because the loop is flexible, it may not work for those who need firm or direct stimulation.

This toy is discreet in size and sound, making it an option for those who need more privacy. It can also work for dorm or group living because it is waterproof and can be taken into the shower. The Pleasure "O" is simple to use and can work for beginners. Its features might also intrigue more advanced toy users as well.

The Lia Pleasure "O" is made of silicone. Silicone is nonporous and hypoallergenic. It has a slight factory smell, but it dissipates after a couple of washes. There are seams that run along either side of the toy, as well as inside the loop, but they are barely felt. The silicone loop is highly flexible. It can be bent and even twisted. The neck of the toy is slightly firmer, and the rest of the toy is firm.

The loop of the Lia Pleasure "O" is designed to completely surround the clitoris. The loop is large enough to fit almost all anatomies. It can be inserted, but it might be awkward with the very flexible tip and shape. This makes it best suited for external stimulation.

The loop of the toy is at a 45 degree angle to the shaft. The angle of the neck allows for easier handling of the toy during use. The Lia Pleasure "O" was designed to be discreet, thus it is on the smaller side. The size of the toy makes it useable for all levels of experience. It also makes it easy to hide. It can easily fit in a purse or bag. When traveling, it is best to remove the batteries so the toy does not accidentally turn on.

The Lia Pleasure "O" has one button on its base. The button is wide, flat, and clicks when pressed. There are a total of 10 vibration settings.

1. High Vibration
2. Medium Vibration
3. Low Vibration
4. Accelerating Pulses
5. Continuous Pulses
6. Long, Fast Pulses
7. Short, Fast Pulses
8. Weaker Pulses
9. Long, Stronger Pulses
10. Very Weak, Short Pulses

Holding the button for a couple of seconds turns the toy off. The toy has a memory: if you turn it back on, it will be on the next setting in the sequence. The vibrations can range from rumbly to buzzy, depending on the setting. The vibrations could travel better through the loop. The vibrations diffuse noticeably at the loop of the toy. The strength may not work for those who require intense vibrations.

The base of the Lia Pleasure "O" has an O-ring, making it waterproof. When screwed on tightly, it can be submerged in water.

The Lia Pleasure "O" is easy to care for. It can be easily washed with soap and water, taking extra care around the loop and seams. When dried, it should be wrapped in a cloth or placed in a bag. Only water based lubricants should be used.

The packaging was a clear, plastic box with colorful fonts. It is not discreet or intended for long term storage. There are no paper instructions, but the box highlights the qualities of the toy. If giving as a gift, including a storage pouch might be best.

While not a beginner to clitoral vibes, this was my first one with such an unusual shape. The concept was cute and refreshing. However, the design is not going to work for everyone. The loop is pretty large. If you place your clitoris in the center of the loop, the vibrations will be almost non-existent. Using the neck to give some pressure works well if you need some firmness in your toys. The loop is too flimsy to work for those who require a lot of power to orgasm.

If anything, the Lia Pleasure "O" is a great warm up or teaser toy. It can also be used in conjunction with oral sex. The loop still leaves the clitoris available to other forms of affection. Overall, the Lia Pleasure "O" would have been even better if the silicone loop was firmer and the vibrations traveled.
