Hugs vibe - traditional vibrator by Doc Johnson - review by Murrkurie

This toy was excellent for solo use. I found its elegant shape a little unusual at first, but when it was used, it definitely did its job. The curve at the top makes this toy ideal for deep penetration. It was able to stimulate in deep penetration as well as cup the canal as it was used. I think this toy is wonderful for beginners as well as those who are used to easy yet efficient toys. This is a wonderful toy for casual situations as well as teasing. It was also efficient as a punishment/pet toy, due to the simple manner and easy use.

The material of this toy is a very smooth texture. Made from the velvet cote, its almost silky to the touch and feels extremely slick. It didn't really have much of a taste, vaguely reminiscent of silicone lube. The smell was pretty typical for a silicone-type toy. The texture seemed to make the toy feel even smoother. The texture made this toy extremely friendly for a newbie like me.

The design of this toy was elegant and very simple. There is a small dip just below the top that narrows it briefly, creating a dip in the toy. I didn't know how this toy was going to do, but the dip made it highly effective. It made penetration very pleasant and gave almost a ribbed effect. It is a decent length for a beginner, meaning it was effective for deep use when pushed but made it easy for lighter, more playful use. This toy is wonderful for travel, easily concealable and discreet.

The ring on this toy makes it waterproof and excellent for use in the shower. I was worried it wouldn't be tight enough, but I had absolutely no problem with it at all. The noise level was a little startling at first, but once I adjusted, the sound was not too loud. I could tell it was on, but it couldn't be heard through the doors of the bedroom. It felt even slicker in the water than when used outside, making it easier to use. All three settings are pleasant though I found most effect with the second two, the more powerful settings.

With this toy, it was easy to sterilize it and wipe it down. It didn't take long to do, and the texture on the toy was back as soon as I dried it. I typically store it in a cloth bag or in the toy chest. The surface of the toy is not easily scarred or marred as far as I can tell thus far.
