Rabbit pearl - rabbit vibrator discontinued by Vibratex - review by Kkay

This was one of my first purchases over two years ago, but it didn't stand up to the test of time.

The first thing you'll notice on holding the toy is how very pretty it is. The pink tint is just barely visible, and the pearls add a nice visual touch. You can feel them underneath the bubble of silicone. There's a tiny smiling face just underneath the flared head of the shaft, and the rabbit has a bit of detailing on it. It feels pleasant to the touch: silicone, yes, but made more rigid by the shaft that allows it to rotate.

Actual use, though, is where this toy suffers.

First off: it's LOUD. If there's anyone else in the house, or if you don't have music turned up on full, expect the buzzing and whirring to be heard. It's loud enough to be distracting, and not only did it make me turn away from the toy more often than not because of issues of privacy, it also knocked me out of the zone when I did use the toy.

The rotation is novel, and the pearls shift pleasingly underneath the surface of the toy in a way that stimulates stronger, longer-lasting orgasms, but actually getting that rotation is difficult. The toy whirls about very enthusiastically when outside of the vagina, but when actually inserted, the rotation suffers. To have it actually move and not just twitch, I had to turn it more than halfway up. Finding the point where the rotation will kick 'on' is difficult, and it also means that the slower, more stroking speeds are unusable in practice.

In contrast the vibrating rabbit is very effective. The bullet is strong, though very loud, and when positioned right it leads to intense orgasms. Achieving the correct positioning, though, is difficult. I felt like I had to fight with the toy to get it in place where I could receive pleasurable stimulation, and once I had it there, it was easy for it to slip out of place.

Not only that, but the vibration suffers heavily for triggering the rotation. It's a delicate balance of playing with switches to find an equilibrium where both functions are working and aren't overpowering.

The ears of the rabbit can be uncomfortably sharp, and using the shaft of the toy for thrusting penetration when not using the rotation feature in hopes of a stronger vibe requires a delicate hand. The shaft is very firm, so be aware that despite the soft, almost jelly feel, you can over-estimate and end up sore the next day.

Another negative is that the toy eats through batteries. I could manage one relatively short (20m or so) session with it before there just wasn't enough juice for it to produce firm vibrations, and the toy was prone to over-heating when used over long periods. The plastic casing that houses the controls is a negative when it comes to this, because the heat can actually warp it over time.

I think my expectations for a rabbit vibrator were probably too high. After getting more experience with toys, I'd probably rate this one a three. It does have good power while the batteries last.
