Puts the G in OMG
At first I was put off by the push buttons and how much noise this little guy makes and didn't think we'd have much of a relationship. All it took was giving it a second chance, and I was completely taken. Sorry I doubted you, Buddy.Published: February 3, 2009
Pros:
Strong vibrations, Awesome patterns
Cons:
Very loud, Vibrations may be too intense for some
Since everyone else has tried and loved the Xtreme pack G-spot Bullet, I just had to see what all the fuss was about. At first glance, it was just what I had expected – a bullet with a push-button controller. Now, push buttons have left me a bit jaded in the past, but I really wanted to give this one a shot. I am so glad I did.
The buttons on the Xtreme aren’t like the ones that turned me off in the past. You know the ones I’m talking about. Push button to turn on, then again and again through get the maybe 5 speeds and patterns that are okay but no way in hell they’re going to get you off, then again and again to turn the damn thing off. Can you tell I was bitter about push buttons? I digress. The buttons on the Xtreme cycle through the 5 speeds and 7 patterns, both with its own set of arrows, so you’re sure to find at least one combination that’s perfect. The lights in the center indicate which pattern you’re on, so you can find your favorite every time. The transition between the speeds and patterns is much smoother than other push button vibrators I’ve had, which I really appreciate. And if you need to turn it off quickly, you can. The center button turns it on and off with no problem.
The vibrations on this baby are incredible. The speed goes from about 3 ½ vrooms to definitely 5. I’ve only taken it that high for the purpose of this review, and then it was too intense for me. The patterns vary from steady to pulsing to gradients and combinations of the three. The tip of the super-soft rubber coated bullet concentrates the vibes exactly where you want them.
The only real problem I found with the Xtreme is how much noise it makes. It is really loud. I have thin walls and housemates, so this poses a problem sometimes. If I put my comforter over me and put some pillows on top of that, it muffles the noise enough. It’s a small price to pay for the enjoyment I get.
The Xtreme’s called a g-spot bullet, but I like to avoid inserting bullets. It’s easy to break them if you only have the cord to pull it out by. Also, there’s a seam on most bullets (including this one) which is a nice place for bacteria to hide. I tried inserting the Xtreme once to see if it would actually get my g-spot, but it didn’t do anything for me. If you must insert it, vaginally or anally, put it in a condom so you have something reliable to pull it out with. Also use it with a condom if you’re planning on sharing it, as you can’t sterilize it. However it’s easily cleaned with warm water and soap or toy cleaner, though be careful not to submerge it or get water near the cord since it’s not waterproof.
This is a great little vibrator that packs a lot of punch. I wouldn’t recommend this as a first toy or for someone who it too sensitive for very intense vibrations. But for everyone else – hop on the Xtreme G bandwagon. You won’t regret it.

Follow-up commentary
13 months after original review
The other day I sat down to write this follow-up review, and all I could write about was how damn loud this bullet is and how I can never use it. I can't even use it when I'm home alone because the noise is distracting and keeps me from enjoying myself.
Clearly, my opinion has changed in the past couple of days. Actually, I changed the toy. Here was my thought process: The bullet component is what is making the noise. The bullet plugs into the controller via a 2.5mm jack, therefore the bullet is interchangeable. Any other (quieter) bullet with a 2.5mm jack can be used instead of this one that is making the noise.
So I took the bullet from my Club Vibe and plugged it into the Xtreme pack controller. Voila! The incredible vibrations and patterns of the Xtreme pack with about 2 fewer bees. I can't speak for other bullets but using the Club Vibe brought the volume down to about 2 bees, 3 at the most. At first I thought the smaller size and lack of shape would be a compromise, but being able to enjoy an amazing vibrator makes it totally worth the changes.
If you have other vibrators with interchangeable bullets (with a 2.5mm jack), I definitely recommend combining them with the Xtreme pack.

Bullets question
-
Are they insertible or is that a no no?
-
Depends. This one you can, although I wouldn't insert it very far to make sure you don't end up with anything getting caught where the cord comes out of the bullet.
-
Definitely not for anal use.

Multiple types?

Has anyone tried multiple types of bullets? How does this one compare to your favorites? Is this your favorite?

This is my first multi function bullet. My other one is just a straight up vibe. This one has a smoother material, and I like the different vibration settings. It's a good value for the price.

Fun or No fun?

Are vibrators fun or what?
-
That one does look fun, but I can't really justify getting it since I already have like 5 bullets.
-
I have this one , I love it.

Would a guy like it?

Do any of you guys have experience using this in the bedroom with your partner?

Quote: Do any of you guys have experience using this in the bedroom with your partner?If you are asking if it would be good for prostate stimulation, I would say no. For that you want something with a flared bottom, like a buttplug has. Otherwise there is a risk that it could go too far in, and you wouldn't be able to get it out. It has a pretty good vibe, but then most guys need a stronger vibe for their prostate. It's also not really ideally shaped for a prostate vibe.
As a g-spot vibe, I would say it's fair. Both the prostate and g-spot need strong stimulation, and this is not a really powerful vibrator. It's also not really long enough to combine thrusting motion with the vibration, which is what these spots love, in particular.
As a clitoral vibe, it's excellent. And that is what I use it for. It can also provide a nice counterpoint, when inserted, to another clitoral vibe.
It's got a really long cord, and this would be good for a partner who wanted to control a vibe stuck in some snug panties or otherwise held up to their partner. It's also pretty quiet, and so is less likely to make you burst out laughing at the noise or otherwise spoil the mood with angry hornet sounds.
Hope that helps :)

Durability and Battery Life
-
Compared to other bullets, how durable is this product? I've treated all my bullets well but one or two have broken within a month or less, is this product worth the money? Thanks!
-
I haven't read all of the reviews, but it seems to be a pretty sturdy option.

looks like something i would try

Question about Xtreme Pack Bullet
-
For those of you that have owned this, how long has it last for you? Even with a fair amount of love n' care my bullets don't last more than a few months and I've come to accept this as a reality of bullet vibrators :(
BUT, seeing as everyone says this is the best darn bullet in the world, I was wondering if maybe it was an exception to this rule? -
My first one lasted a year and a half.
But I've heard of others having much worse luck. -
I guess it's nice to know it at least has the capacity to last that long...there wasn't anything super special you did to extend its life, was there? I usually just try to keep them pretty dry (even when they say waterproof), take the batteries out between uses, and I have started reinforcing the wires at their connections with electrical tape. The tape has actually helped them from coming loose, which is good.
Anyone else have any suggestions?

Oh Xtreme pack g-spot bullet, how I love thee!
-
How are you so wonderful, Xtreme pack g-spot bullet? How do you do it? Day after day, you deal with me shoving batteries in you and then jiggling them out. You let me wash you, unplug you, and throw you in my toy case. And you never falter! When I saw you in a sex toy store recently, I gasped and babbled on about how amazing you are to my boyfriend, because he was standing there, even though he already knows. You inspire me, Xtreme pack g-spot bullet. Just one question: can I call you something else? Your name sucks.

*laugh*
One of my newest acquisitions is called "Pyrex dildo mini latty pocket rocket" -- it is seriously in need of a nickname.
I think I'll call my toy 'pete'. -
Latty is kind-of cute. Maybe I should call mine Xtreme or Mr. Xtreme.

Thank you for viewing Xtreme pack G-spot bullet – vibrator review page!
I'm glad you like it!
It didn't reach my g-spot either.
Agreed, it really doesn't work for insertion. But I'm glad you found it as wonderful as the rest of us!
I love toys with strong vibes! Too bad it's so loud. Probably wouldn't work well in my living space, with adult roommates. ;P
Thanks for the review!
Great review, gosh this is so vibrantly colored, its 80's cool! I love it just because of that, so on my wish list it goes!
Great suggestion, I love interchangeable toys. It's like a mix and match wardrobe!
Thanks for the review!
