Insignia Soraya - rabbit vibrator by LELO - review by LikeSunshineDust

To say Soraya is my favorite sex toy would still do her no justice. I'll put it this way - I didn't know what a sex toy really was until I had her. I had no idea how flawless an instrument of pleasure could be. She is my muse, but leaves me speechless as the same time. That said, I will do my best to put her exquisiteness into words.

Soraya is a dual-motored vibrator designed to provide pleasure both internally and externally. She is conventionally used vaginally with the smaller appendage resting on the clitoris but may be used anywhere pleasure and vibration are desired.

I enjoy using Soraya mostly for solo play, but her skills are well worth sharing with or putting in the hands of a partner. Since Soraya is waterproof, she is great for use in the shower or tub as well as in the warmth of a dry bed.

Soraya is made of a smooth, velvety silicone with an inlay of silver-colored plastic. The silicone is nearly seamless, with just a slight ridge around the outer edges. There is also a ridge where the silicone meets plastic. Neither of these ridges can be felt upon insertion. Soraya's materials have neither taste nor scent.

Soraya's design can be described as modern yet classic. While there is no doubt what her purpose is, her sleek lines and fluid curves lend to an air of class and sophistication not seen in your typical sex toy. Her 5 1/2" shaft curves ever so slightly up to greet the G-spot with a soft bulb of a head, which measures 1 3/8" at its widest. The clitoral attachment protrudes from the body at a point that seems anatomically appropriate for most and measures just over 2 1/4" in length. The connection between body and clitoral attachment is very flexible, allowing for customization to many a person. The body ends in a rounded loop with raised control buttons positioned on top.

Soraya is very comfortable to hold in a variety of positions, with the loop acting as a handle and the buttons placed where they are easily accessible. Again, though Soraya's purpose is no secret, I would not hesitate to travel with her in my luggage. At least TSA will know you have good taste.

Soraya has many different speeds and vibration patterns which are controlled by the three buttons atop the base. Pressing the (+) button turns her on and increases the speed of vibrations. There are 10 different speeds that I could distinguish. Pressing the (-) button decreases the speed of vibrations and eventually turns them off. Either button may be pressed and held for quick acceleration or deceleration. The center button scrolls through Soraya's eight patterns of vibrations which progress as follows:

1. Shaft and attachment vibrate steadily simultaneously
2. Shaft vibrates alone
3. Attachment vibrates alone
4. Shaft and attachment alternate
5. Both pulse together
6. Shaft and attachment pulse alternately (smoother than #4)
7. Shaft pulses while attachment vibrates steadily
8. Random pulses in both

The speed and intensity of the vibrations can be increased or decreased within each pattern to customize your experience to exactly the way you like it. Even at the lowest intensity, the vibrations are still deep and rumbly. At its highest level, Soraya's motors are very powerful yet remain extremely quiet.

As mentioned previously, Soraya is labelled as waterproof and has proven to be just that.

Because Soraya is waterproof, she is very simple to clean with hot soapy water or a wipe-down with disinfecting wipes or a 10% bleach solution. The plastic cannot be completely disinfected, and the ridge between the plastic and silicone requires extra attention during cleaning to make sure nothing has gotten trapped in there. Because of her mechanical parts, please do not boil her in water or place her in the dishwasher for cleaning.

Water-based lubricants work best with silicone toys, as silicone-based lubricants may react with the material.

Soraya is easily stored in the included satin pouch.
