So Much Better Than Expected
The Better Than Chocolate revolutionized my expectations of clitoral vibrators. I love the deep, rumbly vibrations and the smooth, soft texture of the vibe. The touch sensor could be better, but it was easy to overlook the control problems when the vibrations were so good.Published: February 14, 2010
Pros:
Deep vibrations, velvety surface, body safe material, waterproof.
Cons:
Controls can be tricky, logo imprint on bottom, not rechargeable.
Follow-up commentary
4 months after original review
06/11/10 I've had the Better Than Chocolate for a few months now, and I still really like it. I only use it on its highest setting with constant vibrations.
One thing I have noticed is that sometimes the BTC has a mind of its own, and acts a little wild. Occasionally when I turn it on, instead of being on its constant vibration mode, which it should start with, it will cycle thru its three modes (constant, rollercoaster, and pulsation) and no matter what I do I can't stop it unless I turn it off and then back on again. I've tried touching the sensor bar, locking it, trying to cycle thru the modes, but nothing except turning it off will make it stop. Even then, when I turn it back on, sometimes it's still in its possessed mode of randomness. It is mildly annoying but I've learned to just turn it off and on again (sometimes taking the batteries out for a second) and seeing if it acts properly. Still loving this toy, but it's a little glitchy sometimes.

Intercourse expereince with "better than chocolate"?

Does anyone have any intercourse expereince using the 'better than chocolate' clitoral vibrator?
link
My husband and i are looking for a vibrator that we can use *while* having sex while he is on top. We were looking at this one hoping it would be small enough (in thickness) that it won't get in the way or be too painful. We also liked the shape of it.
But we were hoping to find out if anyone else has used it in this way and how they liked it. Does anyone want to share? -
I really think this is too large for that.

I agree with Adriana Ravenlust, it is too big for man-on-top intercourse. However, it does work fairly well in Cowgirl intercourse. The problem with the better than chocolate is that the controls are tricky and easy to change without meaning to, especially in the heat of the moment. Sometimes, simple is better, but we DO like the better than chocolate during foreplay! My wife calls it her favorite. (bliss)

Thank you for viewing Better than chocolate – vibrator review page!
Oh my god, the reviews on this one are so mixed! Great review though
Great review!
Thanks for reading and for the compliments. This toy is certainly good for some and not so good for others, so I'm glad there's a variety of opinions on it now ^_^
I'm glad it worked better for you then it did for me. The Laya Spot comparison was good, too.
I wonder if it worked for you because you have a more sensitive clit than I do? You mention that your fingers work best for you, but I'm totally unable to even get close to orgasm with my fingers. Maybe I just need stronger vibrations, which is why I found that the BTC didn't work for me.
Thanks, Britni. I've used my fingers since I started getting off (7 years ago?), and I didn't even get a vibrator til May 2009, so I'm not nearly as familiar w/ using a vibe on my clit as I am w/ using my fingers. I've experienced clit vibes that are too weak, as well as ones that are too strong. The Layaspot's lower speeds are more thuddy and feel better to me than its highest speeds/functions. I also like pressure on my clit (probably comes from liking fingers), and having a vibe that I can push into my body is good for me. More powerful vibes can be overstimulating if I press them into myself for pressure.
Rechargeable would definitely make this more awesome
Great review!
Great review! I love this one too!
This review is great, and thorough! It also makes me wanna add this to my wish list right now- I think I shall! Impeccable review, thanks for providing it!

@razmataz - You're quite welcome! Thanks for reading ^_^
Great review! This one looks like a lot of fun :]
Nice review!
Great review!
Thanks, y'all! I still like the BTC but it isn't my favorite clitoral vibrator anymore. I'm not sure which vibe actually holds the title anymore, but I like the ONO Cleo and Joanna Angel's Bad Ass G Bullet better than the BTC.
Awesome review, i'm a big fan of ohmibod and own one toy from them I want more though thanks.
good review, thanks
good review! it should be rechargeable!
