Intimate interludes vibrator - vibrator kit discontinued by Doc Johnson - review by Jacklynn Wells

My husband and I are still navigating the world of sex while living in a house with little kids. For the past couple of weeks, they've been in rare form, taking full advantage of our family bed policy. Needless to say, there wasn't anything sizzling in our bedroom.

I knew I was leaving for a business trip, and I desperately wanted to get in some time with Honey. Unfortunately, the only thing we could squeeze in was a quick, but very satisfying encounter on the night before I left. Fortunately, I'd just gotten the Intimate Interludes 7" slim vibe with the extra sleeve in the mail, so I packed it to take with me to finish off what Honey had gotten started.

When I first examined the vibrator, I wasn't really impressed with its looks. It seemed a bit slim, and the smooth texture wasn't something I really wanted at that time. I turned it on and didn't think even the highest vibration speed would be enough stimulation for me, either. But I was still willing to give it a try and see what it could do. The result was just as I expected: it just wasn't giving me what I needed. And then I turned my attention to the velvet touch sleeve. Oh...

Now, that's what I was talking about!

The sleeve is the saving grace of the vibrator. Truly velvety in texture, I was immediately impressed with how it felt against the tender skin of my nether regions. Also, the slightly larger tip is a good design for deep-seated titillation. Even while wet the sleeve retained its softness, and provided just the right amount of grip during penetration. Once I discovered this hidden secret, I was very glad for the relatively low vibrating speeds. The gentle vibration from beneath the sleeve created quite interesting sensations that I wouldn't have been able to savor at a higher speed.

I used the toy each day I was out of town. I removed the sleeve and used it for penetration while stimulating my clitoris with the vibe. I used it in the shower. The contrasting textures of the sleeve and the vibrator at the same time were arousing, and provided just a bit of variety.

I couldn't wait to get back home to Honey to find out what kinds of Intimate Interludes we could enjoy together. The main problem I had with operating the toy during solo play had to do with the placement of the control dial for the speed. I found that I kept unscrewing the entire top while trying to change the speeds. It's much easier to operate with a partner. And Honey's arms were long enough to use the sleeve and vibe kit for anal stimulation during sex; together and separately.
