Cute, Useful, Astrological?
This cute Astrovibes vibrator works relatively well for its intended purpose. Other than a few minor things, it's a great and reliable vibrator. Not too loud, easy to clean, and fun to explore its different uses.Published: July 8, 2010
Pros:
Silicon, shape, and quiet
Cons:
Not waterproof and vibrator located halfway up toy
This is part of a neat collection of Fun Factory vibrators. The idea was to customize vibrators for each astrological sign. They are designed with the most prominent characteristics of each of the constellations, adding a special creativity and humor. Personally, I was "supposed" to get the one for Scorpio, but I found the Virgo to be more visually appealing. The Virgo is made into the shape of a woman, a soft rounded head, two small bumps for breasts, and a lil’ booty on the back.
The placement of the breasts and head make a nice indent which can fit over the clitoris, around it, and the head of the vibrator can lie perfectly in the opening of the vagina, creating a nice all-around vibration. The only downside to using this as a clitoral massager, is that the actual vibrator inside is located halfway up the vibrator, and after that it's all just flexible silicon. This makes applying pressure slightly difficult and is hard to position the actual vibrating section onto the clitoris. Overall, the vibes were medium to high strength, losing intensity towards the tip of the toy. Aside from external stimulation, the shape of the body also works well for internal stimulation, the top half being soft and flexible. The head can be used as a g-spot stimulator because of its oval, flexible tip.
It is a great toy to have on hand, slightly more diverse than your standard vibrator. It has made its place among my most trusted and often used toys, and so I think it's pretty good overall. It would be interesting to try the others in the collection, as they have their own unique pleasurable features. They are easy and safe to clean and use. The Astrovibes are 100% silicone, which means they can be cleaned with nearly anything (antibacterial soap, vibrator cleaner, etc.). It is powered by two AA batteries located under the on/off dial on the bottom. The dial also acts as the intensity control, starting at low and getting to a medium-high. The only thing that I really wish was different about the vibrator, was that it was not waterproof. Fun Factory clearly spent some time in designing these to be alluring, useful, and fun; I just don't see why they didn't take the extra step to make it waterproof.

Has anyone else had this problem with the Astrovibes?

I have been having an issue with the dial on this toy since, like, the second time I used it. It's currently my only real vibrator, other than my bullets (I'm really trying to save up to get a good, strong silicone vibrator). So being that it is kind of all I have right now, that makes it even more frustrating. I'll just copy & paste what I said in my follow-up review for my Virgo:
"I still like this vibe, BUT I do have one big issue with it! I noticed upon it's second use that there is an issue with the dial. There is still some room for it to turn after being turned to the strongest vibrations. The issue with this is that it doesn't keep vibrating, it turns off! I have a big issue with this being that I use this while laying on my stomach, so the dial can be turned the slightest bit from rubbing against the sheets and then it shuts off completely and I have to turn it back. It can be frustrating. I have considered trying to contacting the company about this issue to see if maybe they could replace it, or if it is an issue with all of them and not just mine, but since I went through my toys and got rid of all of the non-silicone toys I am worried I would be left without a vibrator for a while."
So is it just me? What should I do about it? Do you think I should contact the company, and if so what could happen?

thanks for the review
Thanks for the review; this is a really sexy looking toy to me, haha. I do wish the astrovibes line was waterproof too...even if only for easy cleaning. I have the Scorpio and it's a real pain to clean with all the grooves.
Thanks!
Appreciate great review!
