iVibe pocket rocket - sex toy by Doc Johnson - review by Tuesday's Child

I tend to buy vibrators compulsively and almost never buy just one. Because of my compulsive shopping habit and the modest price of Doc Johnson’s products, I have several Doc Johnson vibrators. If I had to give all but one away, I’d probably keep the iVibe Pocket Rocket. The Pocket Rocket has inspired many intimidators but this colorful update on the original is produced by the company that started it all.

The only difference I can find between the iVibe and the original Pocket Rocket is the array of fruity color options. The iVibe line is modeled after a certain hip PC competitor that produces some of their products in a rainbow of colors. The original is priced significantly lower than this one and for someone less concerned with aesthetics, I’m not sure whether the iVibe is worth the extra cost. I, however, am one of those people who cares just much about what a product looks like as how well it works. I had to get my hands on one of the lime-colored iVibes.

Despite the attractive design update, the iVibe is basically a utilitarian vibrator. Conveniently, it operates on only one battery. It’s also very small (about four inches long and an inch in diameter). You can literally carry it in your pocket. Its operations are limited: it only works as a clit stimulator and it only has one setting. That one setting is strong. I wouldn’t recommend it to someone who prefers softer or teasing vibrations. The Pocket Rocket is about getting off and getting off fast.

The biggest problem that I’ve encountered with this vibrator has been turning it on and off. To turn the vibrator on, twist the base right. To turn it off, twist the base left. The problem here is that when trying to turn it off, I usually turn it too far to the left and open it. The battery is then sent flying.

Despite mishaps with the controls, I’m really happy with the iVibe Pocket Rocket. The vibrations are strong enough to bring me to orgasm in less than five minutes every time. It’s also unobtrusive enough to add clit stimulation to a session with a dildo and wouldn’t get in the way during partner sex.
