Hitachi magic wand vibrator - massager by Hitachi - review by G.L. Morrison

Everybody holds a soft spot for that first love but if you could go back in time you'd be like "Wait! That's not how I remember it." It's a universal law. (Like gravity.) Nothing was as good as you remember.

Except this. The Hitachi Magic Wand breaks that law.

I bought my first Hitachi in 1980-something. I was on spring break in San Francisco. We got lost walking around trying to find Good Vibrations. There was a little room to try vibrators in ("over your clothes, please" said the sign) and when I felt the Magic Wand come alive in my hand...! I threw cash at the counter and raced back to my hotel room. I couldn't wait to see if it was as good as I thought it would be.

It was.

Twenty years later, the design hasn't changed. But it's still that good. My closets are filled with suitcases of toys that I take to sex parties and conferences. Beautiful, artistic and expensive toys but none of them guaranteed to get me off. As a disabled woman of size, things don't always hit where they should and some days orgasms are harder to come by.

Last week, I brought a metaphoric truckload of floggers and e-stim toys etc to the orgy and I stopped the play to ask the hostess for her magic wand. (It is that good.) What the hell happened to my magic wand? The last 3 I bought somehow made their way into the bedrooms and toy boxes of ex-lovers. I'm easily seduced by new, shiny things (and people) and so Hitachi-love got forgotten.

But the old affair has been rekindled. Yes, I know it doesn't dance to my MP3 player or have many elaborate settings. You can't plug it into your cigarette lighter. And it isn't silent. (Although if you own a Sybian -and I do- noise becomes relative. Sybian sounds like a small plane landing in your bedroom.) Hitachi Magic Wand is noisier than a dustbuster but less noisy than a blender. And infinitely sexier than both.

So put "My boyfriend's back" on your ipod and make sweet music with a toy that never goes out of style.

Pros:
The wide head hits the clit from any angle and has a strong enough vibration to get you off without direct (over)stimulation. The head's soft enough that it can be held between the legs without sharp plastic edges or bits that catch and pinch. Definitely fat girl friendly. (A plus for plus size gals.)

Cons:

My one complaint --the cord isn't long enough. Oh yes, I rolled away from the wall in a fit of ecstacy and unplugged the damn thing.
