Peels off like a Sunburn!
This vibrator is not worth its cost. It is cheaply made and lacking in good features. There are many other vibrators of a comparable price that are a much better value than this one.Published: December 21, 2008
Pros:
Shape is good, vibration feature is decent.
Cons:
Most of the features are terrible, the material peels.
This might quite possibly be the most strangely designed vibrator.
The vibrator comes in two pieces, the remote and the attachment, which plugs into the remote not unlike headphones into an mp3 player. The remote has a button that you can either press up or down--pressing down corresponding with turning the vibrator on or off and up being used to scroll through the 10 functions, labeled "auto".
The ten functions are foreplay, tease, arouse, zoom, wave, pulsation, vibration, random, racer, and climax. Sounds pretty straightforward, right? Wrong.
It took me a few times to realize that the functions are actually more like patterns of vibrations. It is also probably important to note that it resets to 1 (foreplay) each time you turn the vibrator off.
"Foreplay" is four long vibrations, six medium vibrations, and twenty machine gun-quick vibrations. I'm not quite sure why it's called this, but I found this function to be irritating.
"Tease" is eight long vibrations, then a continuous vibration for about eight seconds. It was a little better than "foreplay".
"Arouse" is about eight seconds of medium intensity vibration, about five seconds of weaker vibration, and about twenty-five of the aforementioned machine-gun pulses.
"Zoom" is like continuously revving a car's engine, intense at first, then dying off.
"Wave" goes from a mildly intense vibration to slightly stronger, back to mild, to a weaker vibration, to a barely moving at all vibration. This might be the worst function on the toy in my opinion.
"Pulsation" is just like it sounds, medium length, decently strong pulses.
"Vibration" is just a mild, continuous vibration. It it probably the best function on this vibrator.
"Random" goes from moderately intense down five intervals to barely moving, each lasting about three seconds.
"Climax" has a moderate vibration for about five seconds, dies off almost completely, then has four medium pulses.
The material this vibrator is made out of is very cheap as well. It's made of hard plastic with a super thin layer of a more velvety plastic. After one use, the velvety coat has begun to peel off like a sunburn, which doesn't exactly seem safe or sanitary.
Overall, I can't say I would recommend this vibrator. The multiple functions are creative but unimpressive. There are many vibrators out there of much better value for the price.

Thank you for viewing Sidekicks ginger – g-spot vibrator review page!
You really cover the functions really well! It's a shame that overall the toy wasn't very good - it certainly seems to have a lot of functions! Thanks for the review!
I agree with Pink you've covered the functions very throughly. I like different functions but it just seems high powered constant vibration works best for me. Sorry this toy disappointed,I would feel the same way regarding the quality.
Thanks for such a through review.
Well crap. I've had my eye on this one because of the shape.
great review!
Ick sounds dangerous!
Thanks for the review.
That would make me so upset if the material was actually peeling. That is like the lowest of lows as far as quality. Thanks for the heads up!
ty for the review
