Too little for my "O"!
This is a good product for discreetness and will probably travel well due to its small size. It is a good "starter" but probably needs something or someone else to finish off the experience.Published: July 18, 2008
Pros:
It is small and quiet.
Cons:
The vibrations are just not strong enough.
After several months of waiting on a new product, I finally get My Private “O” Discreet Massager by California Exotic. It arrived in a huge box but when I opened it, the toy was so small. I know, good things can come in small packages, but this was really small! I opened it quickly and put the one AAA battery in that it required. Turning it on, I was surprised at the amount of vibration it put out. However, there was only one speed and that was a disappointment. It turns on with a push button on the end that is not as easily turned off during play time.
The product review did provide some positive points about the product. It is phthalates free and waterproof. Both of these features are positives for me. It is also small enough to carry almost anywhere with you and it is quiet enough to use in most areas, even with other people around. It has a pointed end that aids in the sensations and has an indented midsection that I think is supposed to help with textures and sensations? I’m not real sure about that because it did little for me.
The time came to put it to the test. First, I tried it out on solo play. Although the vibrations felt good, they were not strong enough to make me climax. It was strong enough to make me want to get out one of my larger, stronger vibes and finish the job. The second time I tried it out, it was with hubby and we used it as foreplay. Again, the vibes were strong enough to feel good but not strong enough for much more. This time, he was able to finish the job. The third time we took it to the hot tub. The vibrations were a little stronger when used in the water but still it was just strong enough to start things.

Experience
I think this item works the best when used in water. Maybe it is just my preference but I thought it produced a stronger vibration when in the hot tub.
Follow-up commentary

This little vibe a great warm up for other toys but by itself, it just doesn't get the job done. We've found that by starting out with it, and then going to other toys, it serves its purpose as a "starter" so all is not wasted.

I have read the reviews on this one being a 3 star want to know what is a 5.

I love this little guy and I will buy another just in case my one gives out but I would like to know who has found one that the vibes are as direct but more powerful. This one makes my toes curl so finding more more powerful would be awesome.

Thank you for viewing My private "O" – massager review page!
aww....I was actually pretty curious about this one - shame it was such a lukewarm experience. How did you feel about the shape of the toy?
One speed is usually a let-down for me too.
It seems like a lot of the 1-AAA vibes don't really deliver. Sorry this was so-so for you. At least you have one you can jump in the hot tub with for some fun. Thanks for the great review!
KS..the shape was ok- a little strange and a little hard to hold on to but... it was unusual
Epiphora and Jimbo.. it was an ok toy.. and you're right Jimbo.. a new toy for the hot tub!!
thanks for the comments.
Thanks for this review. I was considering purchasing this toy, and now I'm glad I did not as I likely would have been disappointed. I too appreciate strong vibrations. Thanks again.
GoToGirl, I was pretty disappointed with it too. I like the strong vibes and this one just didn't deliver. Glad it saved you the money! Good luck finding something that works for you.
Sometimes things just look better in the picture
Yeah, this one was not great..but a good warm up toy..
Thanks. i dont like wimpy vibes either. Why pay the money for something I can do while I hum...
It is a greater warm up but that's about it.. Thanks for the comments
Hi, I have some questions on this item. When u received this item was it in a plastic sleeve that doesn't need to be cut open and just easily opened by pulling it apart? I am asking this because I too just received this item in the mail today and it's my first toy and I am kinda worried that it might be returned or used since it isn't sealed tight. And also how should I clean this product? Do I need to use those isopropyl alcohol to wipe it first or how about those disinfecting wipes or maybe just wash it with hot water and soap? I am very new to this so I might sound overly nervous ...thanks
Thanks for the review, it looked interesting, but I need a good strong vibe.
nice review
