Great for some, painful for others
The shape of the We-Vibe ended up being uncomfortable and not at all pleasurable for me. While it works well for some, it is painful for others, which makes it a gamble for the price.Published: May 6, 2009
Pros:
Good quality, rechargeable toy.
Cons:
The shape doesn't work for me.
The We-Vibe is a great idea: a hands-free vibrator to give extra stimulation during sex. Many women, myself included, can't have an orgasm from intercourse alone. Pleasurable as a thrusting penis may be, we require direct clitoral stimulation to take us over the edge.
I was hopeful when I bought the We-Vibe. I'd heard a few good reviews. It also has many great features. It's rechargeable rather than using batteries. It's made of a safe material: silicone. It's even waterproof. The idea that you could insert half during sex, and the other half would press nicely against the clitoris to provide vibrations, sounded wonderful so I didn't mind the relatively hefty price tag.
When I received the We-Vibe I was pleased with the quality of the construction. It's well-made and has a nice shape and texture. It's smooth to the touch, not too big, and bends nicely. The way the charger plugs in is quite clever, and the case is a classy touch. It didn't seem cheap, which was good because it wasn't cheap.
First I tried it solo, wanting to get used to the controls and the feel before introducing it to my partner. I inserted the thinner end and turned it on high. The vibrations were actually pretty powerful for such a small device, but they didn't transfer too well to my clitoris unless I held the vibe down against it. I decided to try thrusting with a dildo, but unfortunately the silicone on the outside of the We-Vibe felt kind of sticky against the silicone of my dildo, even with plenty of water-based lube. When I tried to thrust the dildo it shifted the We-Vibe in a painful way.
I figured my partner's penis would be a better match with the We-Vibe and tried it out with him. Unfortunately, although we tried a couple of positions, the clitoral portion of the We-Vibe just didn't press against my clitoris enough to provide any pleasure to me, and the inserted portion just felt uncomfortable and occasionally painful when my partner was thrusting. My partner said that he couldn't feel the We-Vibe while we were having sex. After several minutes of trying it out I gave up and removed it.
Unfortunately the shape just didn't work for me, so it ended up being a waste of money. I was disappointed that all of that promise and good construction didn't live up to what I'd hoped.

We decided on this toy because the store employee allowed us to see one out of the box and hold it and see what it does. by going to the store I got a better view of other things here that I was interested in.

Couples Use

OK, it seems like quite a few people have had trouble using this during couple play, myself included. Has anyone got any useful tips? The main problem is that once it's in and my BF is penetrating, the part that rests on the clitoris just moves around too much and I can't seem to orgasm because of it. Any similar problems and solutions?

We-Vibe II - Has it worked for you?
-
A simple yes or no works for me. Please feel free to get in depth on why or why not it didn't work well. I'm thinking of this as a gift for my husband on his belated birthday.
Also, has this caused discomfort to anyone's penis? -
It works better for me as a solo toy. My husband is on the smaller side of average and he was able to fit inside of me with this comfortably, but I prefer smaller girthed things so this plus him was a little too much for me. I haven't revisited it in a while though.

Just bought it. I'll let you know when we try it out. ~

Anyone else have trouble with it staying in place on the clitoris during use?

Quote: Anyone else have trouble with it staying in place on the clitoris during use?Yes, and it wasn't completely comfortable on my pubic bone. We had to change positions several times before we found a spot that worked for us both.

We had to change positions several times before we found a spot that worked for us both.Is it bad to say I'm glad I'm not the only one? I think it's because the penis has a tendency to slide beside it rather than under it which makes it move around more. Still experimenting with it.

I'm trying to find my next toy, I bought the fun factory delight, but I was wondering how this one worked for you
-
My girlfriend didn't like it at all. Just was not shaped for her anatomy, which sounds like a fairly common problem if you read the reviews. We need to give it another shot, but I just ordered this to try in a similar fashion: link
and I'm hoping it will work better. My girlfriend has the g-ki as well and it might work but we haven't tried it yet either. -
reviews does not say that, there are a lot and just some users seems to think that

we-vibe... alternate uses
-
tacomanAnyone have ideas for alternate uses of the We-Vibe 2? Looks too big for insertion for the wife, but I want to get it anyhow. -

It is really quite easy to insert. The motors are smaller than a penis, and it is really thin where the two motors connect.

Thank you for viewing We-vibe II – g-spot and clitoral vibrator review page!
That is too bad. Sorry to hear that about no orgasm. Have you tried tigle lotions or manual stilumation. Cock rings sometimes work well if positioned correctly.
Did you insert the small portion or the large?
You're right about it being a gamble. The more reviews that come out, the more I realize - no matter how badly I want it - it's not perfect and I may not like it. Nice review.
@Butterkups: I haven't tried tingling lotions. Sometimes I use a wand-type vibrator during intercourse, and that works well for me, but of course only in positions where I can position the wand properly. I'm interested in vibrating cock rings, but haven't tried one out yet (my partner is a little apprehensive about the idea of a cock ring, but maybe if I got one of the really stretchy or adjustable types he wouldn't be too intimidated).
@Snappy: I inserted the smaller portion, but it was unfortunately still uncomfortable for me during intercourse.
I'm like Carrie Ann..I'm really interested in this but the more I read, the more I wonder..
Sorry it wasn't great for you...
Nice review though..thanks!
Me too - I so want to try it, but I probably won't unless someone gives it to me.
Good review.
That shape does not look like it would work for anyone!
I third Carrie Ann's comment. I'll only use this if I get it for free, haha.
Yea, I've been wondering how well this toy works with the stem being so flexible between the two vibes.
No orgasm?!
I would love to try a we-vibe, but like all the other comments, what if it doesn't work for me. Great review, sorry it didn't work well for you.
thanks for the review!
