Kissa - traditional vibrator by EdenFantasys - review by Kayla

The Kissa is the first glass vibrator produced by EdenFantasys. While it's produced under the EdenFantasys brand name, the company that manufacturers it is Doc Johnson. The toy is made from plastic and tempered glass. It looks like the base of the toy is made from plastic, but the outer layer of the toy is made from glass layered over the plastic. The toy is about six inches long, and at the widest point, the toy is about an inch and a half in diameter. Most of the toy is about the same diameter, so it's a pretty wide toy.

The packaging for the Kissa is really basic. The vibrator comes in a clear baggie with the EF cardboard logo attached to the top. The instructions on the cardboard piece are very basic. They include the features of the toy and also include the cleaning instructions for the toy. The Kissa also includes a black, thick-velvet storage pouch. The storage pouch is a drawstring bag that, while a little thick to drawstring easily, does end up drawing closed nicely. It has a little holder piece that will keep your drawstring bag closed nicely. The bag is slightly padded with a bit of padding that will protect the Kissa from breaks and scratches.

The Kissa has an interesting texture. It's one of the reasons that, as much as I love EF, I've stayed away from it up until now. The texture makes this one really unique. The shaft of the Kissa has little spirals on it, and the head of the Kissa has little bumps. None of the bumps are painful in the least, but they are there. Both pieces of texture can be felt during use. The swirls on the shaft actually provide an interesting, pleasurable sensation. However, the bumps on the head are another story. The bumps aren't painful, but I wouldn't call them pleasurable either. They just feel a bit awkward to me. In fact, I probably would have really loved this toy if it wasn't for the bumps at the head. You can definitely feel them during use, and to me, it was kinda like a way of knowing exactly where the head of the toy was at all times, because the sensation is much more intense than the swirls, and it overshadows the pleasure of the swirls. I'm not much for intense sensation, so the nubs on the head of the Kissa were just too much for me to find enjoyable.

The Kissa does run on a AA battery. It is not included. To insert the battery, you just unscrew the cap at the bottom of the Kissa and slide in the battery. There's a piece of cardboard included inside to make the battery stay quiet during use. As a plus, there's enough room in the storage bag to slip in an extra AA battery if this becomes a favorite toy, so you never have to worry about the batteries dying mid-use.

The vibration levels are pretty soft. I think it has a lot to do with the fact that the glass is pretty thick and makes it hard to allow the vibrations to travel through it. At times, the vibration levels feel like they should be much stronger and rumblier, but they just don't come through the glass that well. The sound of the toy is deceiving, and it feels like it should be making stronger vibrations for the amount of noise it puts out, but instead, it feels like the vibrations just got muted because of the glass. Some women will be able to orgasm from the vibrations, but I'd say they are moderate at best. (I like strong toys though, so I might be biased.) On the plus-side, that means that I can easily hold the toy without feeling any sort of numbness in my hands.

The Kissa has three vibration strengths; a low, medium, and high. The low is very soft, and the high is stimulating but not strong. The Kissa makes much more noise than the vibrations that it puts out as well. The high setting could easily be heard in the same room, and you might be able to hear it through a closed door if someone was being nosy. However, turning on music does mask the sound pretty well. Changing the vibrations strength is easy too - you just press the button on the bottom of the toy, and it will change. Going through all vibration speeds will allow you to turn off the toy.
