First Vibe

Cheap and basic, if not very exciting--I'm glad this was my first vibrator but I won't be repurchasing. For people who want something simple or people who don't know what they want.

Use

When pressed against the vulva, this little bullet delivers vibrations that send a sweet message all the way down your legs - even on the lowest settings, though it's not exactly strong. I think this is because it's so rigid. No amount of pressure softens the vibrations. I personally have trouble coming from it by myself. I'm a squirmy, jerky girl, but when my partner holds it against me, the orgasms are intense. I have slipped a condom on to use it anally; other reviews say not to, but the cord is firmly attached and there's no way the control will get lost up there. It's pleasant to feel the vibrations inside you but the best feeling is slipping it in and out of the anus. The bullet can be used on the nipples, but I prefer a vibrator with a more acute focus. If you're going to insert this vaginally, you'll definitely want to put a condom over it. The seam in the middle of the bullet is irritating, as is the wire. What this basic bullet really stood out for was bellybutton and stomach stimulation. Press it hard against your navel or your lower stomach on a high setting, and the vibrations will travel inward, giving you a g-spot orgasm without penetration.

Material / Texture

The Multi-speed Basic Vibrating Bullet has three components: the bullet, the control, and the connecting wire. The bullet is plastic with a metallic silver paint, which is honestly a little bit of a disappointment, since I was hoping for the smooth heaviness of steel. It's very smooth, except for the seam that circles the bullet around its narrow middle.

The control is a velvety plastic. Just above the place where the batteries go is a collection of screws and a small gold sticker reading "WARNING This device should not be use Over swollen or inflamed areas or skin eruptions. Do not use on unexplained calf pain consult physician MADE IN CHINA." Good advice, despite the idiosyncratic grammar.

The wire really annoyed me. The plastic coating was stiff and a little ridged and I hated feeling it against me.
    • Not porous at all
    • Rigid
    • Seamed

Design / Shape / Size

Again, the Multispeed Basic Vibrating Bullet has three componenents: bullet, control, wire. The bullet is about as long as a thumb and about twice as thick at its thickest, with a smooth ellipsoid shape. The wire comes out of a small hole in the bottom of the bullet. Be careful with this part! The hole is a little bigger than the wire, and I've accidentally gotten the tip of my clit hood stuck in this cranny. Painful!

The control is a triangular prism with the EdenFantasys logo on one side. The batteries load into the back.
The dial is near the narrow tip of the triangle and comes out on both sides, making it more user-friendly as there are two places to change the settings in the throes of passion.

The wire has its one good quality: it's LONG! About two feet, in fact. You won't jerk the bullet away from your clit while attempting to change the settings.

Functions / Performance / Controls

Smooth speed gradations are great; lack of patterns, not so much. As I've said before the dial comes out of both sides of the control, and each side helpfully reminds you which is low and which is high.
    • Easy to use
    • Not discreet at all
    • Not enough variety

Care and Maintenance

This toy cleans easily with a paper towel and water. It's compatible with any lube, though you probably won't need lube--it has very little drag, except for the seam. I tie it to one of the bedposts of my lofted bed (thank god for the long wire!) so it's easy to get at from the bed and from the desk underneath. If you're putting this in a suitcase or toybox, though, you might want to remove the batteries. The flipside of the controls being easy to work is that they'll easily turn on when jostled by TSA or by other toys.
    • Easy to clean
    • Easy to store

Packaging

I honestly don't entirely remember the packaging. It came in a brown or white cardboard box which contained the bullet in a tough plastic bag, a set of instructions, and an EdenFantasys catalog. I threw the unnecessaries away and attacked the plastic with a pair of scissors, feeling a great sense of triumph when it finally opened.
    • Difficult to open
    • Minimal
    • Not discreet

Personal comments

After a childhood of showerheads, pool jets, and the occasional use of my mom's massagers (she definitely didn't use them as vibes) and anti-aging vibrating facial brushes (outside of my pants), I was definitely ready for my own official vibrator. I got it for free from the Eden Points Program, which is great for a newbie or anyone who doesn't want sex toys to show up on their credit card bill. It's given me hours of fun, and though it's not perfect it's helped me figure out what I want for sex toys and myself.
Follow-up commentary
This has started to make a little bit more noise and it eats up batteries like no one's business, but I love the little thing. It holds up really well for something so cheap!
