Wanachi mini - wand massager discontinued by Pipedream - review by klyte

The punch that this little wand packs can be used to stimulate any area of your body.

Achey back? Ask Wanachi.
Sore shoulders? Tell Wanachi all about it.
In need of some clitoral attention? Let Wanachi handle it.

You can take this little guy just about anywhere with you, including the bathtub, shower, pool, or you can stay in bed but you won't be dry for long there, either. Whether you choose to make it an all over body massager or simply focus the strong vibrations in one place, Wanachi is not one to disappoint. You get a lot of bang for your buck with this wand and while it may not be too high end, it gets the job done.

The top of the toy around the head is made of silicone. It's been drilled into most advanced user's heads that that means absolutely no silicone based lubes because it'll destroy the material of the toy. While Wanachi is amazingly inexpensive, you don't want to replace it over and over because you use the wrong kind of lube.

The neck of the toy is made of a firm plastic and has little nodules that are similar to ribs or ripples. Underneath, you'll find the handle, which is also made of plastic. The texture of the head is extremely smooth and glossy, and it also warms to body temperature with some usage. I love that the silicone doesn't chafe or cause any discomfort during usage. There's a slight drag to the silicone head which is pleasureable for me personally, especially clitorally if you're looking for a toy that isn't going to blow you out of the water texture wise.

No worries about the toy being porous, but if you're going to share, it's still recommended to slip a condom over the top for safety. Silicone is amazingly safe to use and feels excellent.

This product isn't designed for anal usage unless you like slight vibration on your perineum or outer anal region. As far as insertion into either the anus or vagina, it just isn't intended for those purposes and you could hurt yourself or someone else if you insert this in those areas. Wanachi doesn't smell of anything and is great for an advanced user that needs a lot of vrooms or a beginner that is looking for a wand that is both cheap and will last long enough to graduate into something more high end.

7 inches in length, the wand is really travel friendly and lightweight. You can choose from four different fun colors when purchasing, and the overall design is simple and easy to use. The silicone head covers a large area, as it's about 1 1/4'' in diameter, so if you're using this clitorally chances are most of that area will be engulfed in vibrations and very stimulated due to the size of the head.

This is a waterproof toy and you can take it just about anywhere with you, though be mindful that the battery compartment should be screwed on very tightly so no water seeps in.

Since the dial at the bottom for controlling vibrations and overall design of the product is so easy to operate and user-friendly, I'd recommend this for anyone, beginner or advanced. The toy can actually be used as a full body massager, so I'd say it's got a bit of discreet factor to it as well.

A dial at the bottom turns fairly easily to increase the vibrations of the toy. A slight turn will turn the toy on at a very low vibration and you simply turn the dial and increase the vibrations until you're satisfied. The battery compartment is above the dial and you unscrew the cap to put two AA batteries into the toy when you need to replace them. The highest vibration I would rate at about 5 vrooms, but with fully functional batteries. After the batteries get less strong, the vibrations follow but are still pretty strong and drop down to about 3 bees.

The controls are extremely easy to use, if not the easiest I've ever used. When taken into the shower, water didn't get into the toy and it performed extremely well. I wouldn't call it a battery guzzler, but if you use it every single day, you're bound to go through quite a few AA batteries a month.

The toy is a little nosier than I'd like, but when under covers or put under a pillow it's a little less buzzy. At full capacity is the worst, but it's manageable in a larger house and behind a closed door. It's one of my less noisy toys but I'd recommend using it with a TV on if you're concerned about noise.

Care and maintenance of this toy is simple - just wash it off with a little soap and warm water and you're good to go.

This is the lowest maintenance toy I have. The silicone is non porous and simply can't be used with silicone lube, and the rest is plastic and easily wiped clean. The silicone picks up no dirt, dust or hair and doesn't require much attention until it comes to after you've used it.

I store this in a drawer and sometimes, other toys have leaked a black, inky like substance onto the handle so I keep it seperated from other toys. I know this toy in particular hasn't damaged others but others have damaged it.

The packaging of the wand is pretty informative, basically letting you know the name of the toy, the manufacturer and that it can be used as a full body massager or elsewhere.

I liked that the packaging was very innovative and creative. It's black and has blue bubbles to tell you facts about the toy on the backside. It's a simple cardboard hanging case with a flap at the top for removing the toy, which is seated in a plastic setting.

The design of the packaging isn't very discreet, though it does call the toy a personal massager. It's fairly narrow and small, about the length of the toy, (7 inches) and could be used for storage in a drawer.

I really adore this wand and use it a lot with my partner side by side. We both own one and don't know what we'd do without them. For the price, I'm tempted to see what some of the higher end wands can do but I just love the size and ease of the Wanachi.

I've taken it on many trips and it's extremely travel friendly, though I take the batteries out because it easily turns on in a suitcase, and I do mean easily! The dial is very free flowing and easy to turn.

I'd recommend this to just about anyone and am on my third. They tend to have a shorter lifespan than most toys, though the first one I ever got lasted me over a year. I think Pipedream changed the design a lot and the toy increased with noise and problems ever since. I'm still a faithful Wanachi fan and have bought them as gifts for friends many times.
