Lia bounding bunny - discreet massager discontinued by Cal Exotics - review by curiousnwilling

This toy is a great teaser. It would work really well for any external sensation play (clitoral, nipple, etc.) However, due to the lack of rigidity in the top of the toy, it's not recommended for internal use. This toy is quiet enough that it can be used with roommates in another room without feeling too nervous.

The Lia Bounding Bunny is 100% silicone. Silicone is a non-porous material. This means that it's very hygienic and is unlikely to degrade if stored properly. Don't store with other silicone toy (this is what leads to silicone toys degrading). The best part of this toy is that while it is silicone, it doesn't feel like it. Silicone often times has a slight drag to it and stickiness that leads to little fuzzies constantly getting all over it. The Lia Bounding Bunny, however, feels more like PU-coated plastic. This gives it a more velvety feeling without dragging. It has the feeling of PU-coated plastic with the safety of silicone.

The toy had no odor when taken out of the box and didn't need to be aired out at all.

The ears of the bunny are very flexible, with the rest of the toy being rigid like a bullet.

This toy is just plain cute. While it's not the most discreet looking thing in the world (people would raise an eyebrow if you left it on your nightstand), it's also not a 10" anatomically correct dildo. The toy is a bright fuschia color exactly as pictured.

The bunny ears are very flexible and are meant to go on either side of the clitoris. They do transmit vibrations suprisingly well, however, they're a more shallow, buzzy vibration. Those who are into deeper rumblies should probably look elsewhere. Because of the flexibility of the ears, it should be noted that those who like any amount of pressure should also look elsewhere. The complete lack of any rigidity makes it impossible to get any pressure. The lightness of the vibrations would make this a great teaser or really good for sensory play on the body. If you like buzzier shallow vibrations, this would be a great toy.

The lia has 10 different functions that include escalating, pulsating, and vibrating. The lower 2 of the vibration setting are complete duds because they're so light and buzzy that you can barely feel them. However, the other 8 settings give a nice variety of speed and intensity.

You can navigate through the settings simply by clicking a button on the bottom of Lia. To turn it off, simply hold the button down for about 3 seconds. The fact that the button is on the bottom means that you'll be unlikely to accidentally push a button when using the toy. The 3 second wait to turn off has its pro's and con's. On the good side, you don't have to click through 9 settings before reaching the off and you're also unlikely to accidentally turn it off in use. However, this also means that it will take a bit to turn off so that if someone walked in on you, there would be a bit of a delay. My recommendation would to use in a locked room if you live with people you wouldn't want to see this.

The vibe isn't very loud. I feel comfortable using it with my door shut. If it's absolutely silent, you might be able to hear it through the door. But any activity what-so-ever is sure to drown out the noise.

This toy is basically a large bullet with flexible silicone 'ears' that extend from the top. I don't think that this toy is appropriate for internal use due to the lack of any rigidity of the ears. They do, however, carry vibrations fairly well for external use on the clitoris, nipples, etc.

The vibrations of this toy are slightly on the buzzy end of the spectrum. Those who desire deep, rumbly vibes wouldn't be satisfied by this toy. Although you can feel the vibrations in your hand it isn't hand numbing, and the majority of the vibrations are transferred to the ears. I found this a good teaser to put me in the mood for something in which I could apply more pressure (the ears of this toy are too flexible to have any amount of pressure whatsoever).

As I said earlier, this toy is made out of silicone, and therefore shouldn't be stored with other toys. Personally, I still keep it in the packaging I bought it in. If space is an issue, you can purchase a fabric bag such as a small Don Wands storage bag on this site. If using lube, make sure that it's water-based.

Because this toy is waterproof, you can simply stick it under the faucet with some soap to wipe it down. It's a low maintenance toy. And coupled with its small size that makes it easy to store, this is an all around easy-to-care-for toy.

The toy came in the package pictured. It was simply a clear plastic box with some info about the toy. It was nothing spectacular. If giving as a gift it would probably be necessary to wrap. However, there was nothing offensive or vulgar on the box. I wouldn't call it discreet, however, because you could not only see the toy, but the box also proclaimed 10 vibrating functions in big letters on the front.
