This toy was definitely designed
I desperately wanted an
"egg" vibrator that could also be used during sex. This candidate was cute, inexpensive, and seemed pretty standard, so I chose it.
It isn't all bad. The fact that it has a removable outer cover is nice because you can take that off and wash it well. I also found the finger loop very convenient. Its size also makes it easy to travel with and discreet.
That said, it only worked once, and that one time wasn't all that great. As I was afraid of, the vibrations were seriously lacking. I am not someone who requires a jackhammer's intensity of vibrations to get off, and still this little guy did nothing. There is only one speed, as with most egg vibrators. From what I have found, most little vibrators have a similar story. It worked in terms of the design being good for during sex, but it did not prove much sensation.
I didn't have any other vibrators at the time, so I gave it a second shot. I was all warmed up and ready to go, except it didn't turn on. I tried moving the batteries around-- still nothing. I tried changing the batteries-- still nothing.
The actual
vibrator itself is pretty useless. The sleeve is worth keeping if you can find another egg shaped vibrator to fit in there. The sleeve is made out of a pretty safe material too (TPR silicone. A 6 safety rating on this site I believe.) so that is a plus. The sleeve has a little bit of a smell and taste too it, but nothing too strong or bad, just a little chemical-tasting.
Basically, unless you're just buying it for the sleeve, you're better of saving your money for something else unless you decide its only 5 dollars and you don't mind taking the gamble. I personally found myself very let down.
That's too bad. At least the sleeve is useful, if one likes that kind of texture, and not jelly so it'll last for some time.
I don't trust watch batteries. And, yeah, a $5 toy seems a bit risky. Oh well, at least you have the sleeve.
