The Lovely Alia
Great quality and looks, it's perfect for couples. Vibrations might be weak for Hitachi girls, but it's good enough for most users. All beginners should get one.Published: November 27, 2011
Pros:
Rechargeable, quiet, variation of settings, waterproof and pretty! Very couple friendly!
Cons:
Even though it remains waterproof I'd prefer not to see the small tear at the port.
With my boyfriend out of town for work I finally decided to a upgrade in the toy department, and after some comparison I settled on the Alia. I'm very attracted to Lelo products and the simple, pretty design along with all the other great features (rechargeable, waterproof, settings, lockable, body-safe, I could go on and on) had me sold on the Insignia line. I also like the Alia because it is very couple friendly, although I have so far only used it solo. My boyfriend can't wait to try it with me! This is a very nice toy for anyone who is easily intimidated, no guy will be against taking this to bed. I also ordered the Lelo water-based "personal moisturizer" to use with it and have found they play very nicely together!
The strength of the vibrations is great for me, and the different settings are fun to experiment with. There are stronger vibrators out there, but I find them numbing and much prefer a deep vibration on a lower setting. The controls on the Alia are simple and intuitive with one button for vibration style and a plus and minus for speed. The silicone used is nice and silky with just the slightest amount of drag and feels great!
The Insignia line is waterproof with a silicone membrane covering the charging port. I was a little worried when I received mine because the membrane had a small puncture, the users manual said that even with a tear the port remains waterproof (I have no idea how), but I tested it out and it works just fine. Because it's waterproof it's very easy to clean, just a little antibacterial soap and hot water.
The Alia is a gorgeous toy and comes very nicely and discreetly packaged. It would make a great gift for anyone, but I especially recommend it for beginners (paired with the Lelo lube) because of it's range of vibration and discreet look. It also comes with Lelo's fantastic warranty so you can't really go wrong.
And finally, as we all know pretty isn't everything, so YES it gets the job done! ;)

Alia Insignia-3 Vrooms?
-
Maybe I expect more in my 3 vroom vibes, but I am really disappointed in this toys power. Anyone else?
-
Yea. I wasn't impressed. Gave mine away
-
I haven't tried it. I've found if it doesnt say it has 4 or 5 vrooms it's not going to be powerful enough for me so I don't buy anything now with less than 4 vrooms. I will do eden sponsored, manufacture sponsored, or descriptive reviews for any item, but for it to work for me I have to have at least 4 vrooms.

Lelo products

As far as all of the Lelo products go for cliteral stimulation which product would you choose and why?

Quote: As far as all of the Lelo products go for cliteral stimulation which product would you choose and why?I have the Lelo and I didn't think it was as strong as the hitachi wand. Though this isn't too bad for a travel date out, or take on the go. It's ok , but not that strong in vibration.

I have the Nea and I feel kinda meh about it. I'm thinking about getting the Alia because I have the Soraya and like the feel of the vibrations from it but I'm iffy because they're not quite as strong as I'd like. Out of those two, I'd go with Alia.

how can i know right one?

gnomeyI had an old vibrator and it was okay but now "I can't get no satisfaction" as Jagger would say, I want to get a vibrator that is good and not real expensive. I bought one called a Rabbit Pink and it is terrible for me. Even with personal lube it doesn't work at all. So I want to find a new one that will work and order it soon....I am so needing it!! I want also to have one that will also vibrate my g-spot as well as my clit.
Help please!! -

I suggest finding things that are interesting and reading the reviews to see if they will work for your body type.

I would highly recommend this product for you. I've tried a few of the cal exotic G-vibes, and they're really powerful for the price :D

Insignia Alia – discreet massager

This may not be worth it,is it?

Miss EQuote: This may not be worth it,is it?I'd say it is. LELO toys last a long time and come with a warranty. As for this toy in particular, you really can't go wrong with the shape and overall design -- I've been having a lot of fun with it. -
Mmmm... I likes its looks. (inlove)

Alia vs. Siri
-
ok well not vs really, but I have my siri and i love her beyond words but it breaks my heart that it's not waterproof, so I was wondering if anyone had opinions on how simmilar the feels were, if the alia was as deep and rumbly, and as strong?
-
I'm not sure but I've been wondering this too
-
I would like to know this as well. I have neither, but I'm wondering which is the most powerful for when I have to make the big decision. I do have great waterproof toys so if the Siri is in fact the stronger rumbly toy, I am willing to give up the waterproof-ness of the Alia.

does it feel good

how do you use it
-
Lol, the reviews include a lot of detail.
-
I kinda wondered the same at first.
It's a clit vibe - use it as you would any other type of clit toys. ;)
