Pleasure petals - traditional vibrator discontinued by NMC Ltd - review by Melissa221

This vibrator is a good beginner vibrator as it is not at all intimidating; it is quite long, however it does not need to be fully inserted and the diameter is not threatening. It is a light pink (not pastel) color that has a floral vine design along the entire shaft. It works well for thrusting, vaginal insertion, and clitoral stimulation, however it isn't made for g-spot stimulation. This should not be used for anal penetration.

This vibrator is velvet coated plastic. It has no noticeable smell or taste straight out of the package. It is velvety smooth to the touch; once lubrication is added it becomes silky smooth. The very end, where the dial is located, is a clear hard plastic. This is not at all bendable or spongy, it is very hard to the touch. There is a floral vine raised design along the shaft of the vibrator that is slightly felt while using. Anyone seeking a lot of texture should look elsewhere.

The vibrator package states that it is 7" length (I measured and from end to tip it is more like 7 1/2") with 6 1/2" insertable length. This has a 1 1/2" diameter, which is not intimidating for beginners and satisfying for many. Size queens may want to look elsewhere. There is no flared base so it should not be used for anal use even though it is quite long for most.

First and foremost, this is not a quiet vibrator. There is a paper insert that should be left in the battery compartment (this takes 2 c batteries) or else it sounds like a weed whacker. With the paper in place, outside the closed door it sounds similar to an electric shaver. It does have pretty decent power, however there are no variations in vibration patterns. This is a constant bzzz type vibrator. The vibrations are located in the tip. At the base, which screws off to insert batteries, is a clear plastic dial that controls the intensity of the vibrations.

This vibrator is easy to clean and maintain. It can be cleaned in toy cleaner, a bleach solution, or soap and water. This is not waterproof so take care when cleaning, and remove batteries both before cleaning and before storing. This can be used with both silicone and water lube but since it is not waterproof, it should not be used in the shower or bath.

This toy was packaged in a clear plastic holder. On the cover is a woman in lingerie that says pleasure petals on it. There is a paper insert that has directions in multiple languages that covers a variety of toys. On the inside of the vibrator is a paper sleeve that should be left in place that shows which direction the c batteries should be inserted, which also lessens the noise of the vibrator while in use.

I have used this vibrator solo and with my partner. It is a normal torpedo shaped vibrator, but it is quite powerful. My favorite use of this vibrator is to have my partner use it on me vaginally and then later during intercourse to have him hold it and slide it over my clitoris. We have also used it while I am giving him head and I have placed it on my cheek so he can feel the vibrations. The first time we used this it stopped working halfway through. However, since then we have used it and it has worked every time. I'm not sure what happened the first time, but it seems to have fixed itself.
