Triole - g-spot vibrator by Close2You - review by Mr. E

The Triole is a phthalates-free toy manufactured in Germany by Close 2 You. It is a uniquely designed vibrator that is different than anything else I’ve seen on the market. It has dual motors; one at the head and the other at one side of the T-handle. It has six speed settings and a couple of the vibration settings alternate back and forth between the two motors. It is constructed from hard plastic and sheathed in an outer layer of matte-finished silicone. The silicone covers the insertable end as well as the distinct T-shaped base. The head of the insertable end has five raised ridges designed to heighten sensation. This is great for those who prefer added texture. The silicone coating has no discernable odor or taste. The Triole is also waterproof.

The Triole is a modestly sized vibrator with a distinctive T-shaped handle with control buttons centered in between. One button is an on/off switch while the other is used to cycle through the various settings. Next to these control buttons is a covered port to plug in the rechargeable adapter. This toy is fairly discreet. In fact, my wife and I thought that although it does have a somewhat phallic shape, if it was left lying around, it could possibly be mistaken for a dog toy. The Triole measures 6 3/4” with an insertable length of 4 1/2”. With a girth of just 1 ½” this vibrator is a perfect size for those who prefer “not too big, not too small, but just right.”

Care and Maintenance

Since this is a silicone toy, you should use only water based lubricant. Silicone lubricants could react and cause damage to the vibrator. The manufacturer of the Triole included a sample container of their Glissando lubricant. For cleanup, you can use any silicone-safe toy cleaner or simply wash with warm water and soap. For a more thorough cleaning, a 10% bleach solution may be used. Close 2 You recommends cleaning with a special toy cleaner or using warm water and a mild soap after each use. The Triole actually came packaged with a toy cleaner sample. The manufacturer further cautions that after using the Triole for anal play, you should clean it thoroughly before vaginal insertion.

Packaging

The Triole is packaged in a nice sturdy box with a magnetic lid that opens to reveal a clear window displaying the vibrator. On the front of the box, there are two separate drawers. The top drawer houses the vibrator nestled firmly in a molded foam insert. The bottom “accessory” drawer contains the charging plug as well as a sample of toy cleaner, a silicone cock ring, and a sample of lubricant. Additionally, there is a really nice burgundy velvet drawstring bag in which to store your vibrator; unfortunately, it’s a little snug and leaves burgundy lint on the toy.

Using the included adapter, we charged up the Triole overnight and used it the next evening. Being a gentleman, I encouraged my wife to use it first for vaginal use. She is not a fan of textured toys, so she found the ridges a little uncomfortable; however, those who do like texture will probably find them quite pleasing. The vibrations were nice but not incredibly powerful. Due to the slight curve of the head and the rigid shaft, we found the Triole to be good for g-spot stimulation. However, the positioning of the motor in the T-shaped handle made it impossible to provide both g-spot stimulation and clitoral stimulation simultaneously. If we turned the handle so that the second motor was touching her clit, the insertable curved end then faced away from her g-spot and because of the rigid inflexibility of the toy, it was a bit uncomfortable inside her.

I then tried the Triole anally with my wife at the controls. She found the T-shaped handle to be a real bonus in allowing her to more easily direct the vibrator toward my p-spot. Like her, I was not particularly fond of the ridges, but I was quite pleased with its modest size and easy maneuverability. With the Triole inserted anally, my wife performed oral on me, and I found this to be a powerful combination. She teased me then pleased me!
