Tickle vibe The Teaser - g-spot vibrator by Cal Exotics - review by Rockin'

This Tickle Vibe named “The Teaser” came packaged in a hard plastic shell with a colorful cardboard insert. When I opened the packaging, I immediately thought, “Dinosaurs!” I turned to my partner and said, “It smells like dinosaurs!” See, as a kid I had these toy dinosaurs, and The Teaser smells just like they did. In an instant I was transported back to my early childhood days of dinosaur drama and Stegosaurus smack-downs. Okay, enough nostalgia. This purple PVC toy really stinks. It stinks so much that after I’d first used it and left it out to dry, it smelled up our whole bedroom. The Teaser now has a new home in a plastic zip-lock bag.

As stinky as it is, The Teaser is not all bad. It’s fairly discreet in both size and noise output. It also works pretty well as an external stimulator. These are the only positive qualities I found in the toy.

For me, the biggest disappointment of this toy is its texture. Dozens of little nubs cover the top 2.5” of this 4.5”-insertable toy. The nubs are all about 2 mm wide, range from 1 to 3 mm tall, and have varied flexibilities. The Teaser is just barely over 1” in diameter, but the nubs make it feel thicker. The texture was way too bumpy for my pussy, even after significant warm up. The only redeeming factor of The Teaser’s texture is that it improved my grip while using it as a clit stimulator. It really is a nice size for external use. It’s large enough to hold comfortably but likely won’t get in the way of partners or other toys.

For a smaller toy, The Teaser has pretty strong vibrations, which are concentrated at the pointed end. The g-spot bump gets a little more juice than the tip. If you were able to insert the toy without discomfort, your g-spot would probably be adequately stimulated by this toy. The nubby top half of the toy does flex, however, so intense g-spot pressure may not be possible.

The base dial turns smoothly and provides three vibration levels. Two AAA batteries are required, and I was happy to find that rechargeable ones work just fine. The battery compartment holds up to its waterproof claim, keeping everything inside dry after being submerged in a glass of water.

Since PVC is porous and can’t be sterilized, The Teaser should be covered with a condom when sharing. I used a condom with this toy because of its awful smell and because PVC is often softened with phthalates. Soap and warm water or a toy cleaner can be used to clean this vibe. Be sure to wash your hands after handling the toy; the smell rubbed off onto my skin. Because of all the nubby surfaces, it’s probably best to let it air dry before storing. Both water and silicone lubes are compatible with The Teaser.

Despite being covered with a condom and generously lubed, The Teaser's texture really hurt my pussy. In short, it felt like I was trying to fuck a miniature Christmas tree. As an internal stimulator, this toy was an absolute failure because of the nubs.

During external use, the vibe didn’t slip out of my hand. I could slide the one smooth portion of the toy (the g-spot bump) around my clit easily. I used it along with a dildo and had a decent orgasm, but I can’t see it getting any action in the future.

If you love nubs and don’t notice strong smells, you might like The Teaser. Otherwise, I simply cannot recommend it.
