Xtremely Unnecessary Review
The Xtreme pack G-spot bullet is a good, solid bullet vibe with a lot of options for vibration both steady and patterns. It's light show control panel may amuse and entertain some though it may also be distracting to others. This bullet is strong, with pinpoint vibrations but not necessarily great for actual g-spotting. Excellent for clitoral use.Published: January 25, 2010
Pros:
Strong, pinpoint vibrations, many combos of vibration and patterns.
Cons:
The lights are a little much.
The problem with reviewing super popular toys is that they've already been reviewed to death. The Xtreme pack G-spot bullet has 37 reviews on it.
Do I really have anything new to say?
There is also the fact that popular toys lead us to have expectations that may or may not be reasonable. Such was the case with this one. My expectations were lifted to the unreasonable by the many excited reviews and, in the end, I was slightly disappointed.
The Xtreme pack is a good bullet. A strong bullet. A really neatly colored bullet! It has options galore and enough settings to keep you busy for a week. But when you come right down to it, it's not really superior to other bullets with the same sort of options, of which there are many these days.
Let's start from the beginning, shall we?
Packaging is standard plastic on the Xtreme pack, which is to be expected. Thankfully it was short on naked women trying to look sexy and long on minimal text. Upon pulling it from the packaging, you're confronted with a bright green and dark purple remote and bullet.
The bullet itself is 3.5 inches long with a diameter just over an inch. It's hard plastic coated with a velvety coating that makes it feel matte rather than slippery. It has a pointed, curved end you would assume is for G-spot stimulation but I don't find it long enough to use internally. The pointed end really excels, however, at pinpoint clitoral stimulation.
The cord on the Xtreme pack is an eye tingling green that measures 32 inches in length, which gives you plenty of room to use the bullet between your thighs and hold the control pack up near your eyes.
The cord is jacked at the non bullet end, the jack plugging easily into the control pack.
The control pack is really the exceptional thing about this toy. I have similarly shaped bullets but they're attached to more boring remotes. This one is...
Not boring.
In fact, it's like a miniature disco in your hand due to it's exuberant light show.
The control pack itself is about the length of my hand and fits in my palm well. It is slick, hard purple plastic other than the ribbed rubber grips on it's sides and front and it's green rubber buttons. A single button turns it on and sets the lights (2 for each setting) to steadily buzzing. A plus and minus button on the left side of the pack increase vibration. Each press of the plus button increases vibrational intensity and starts a new set of lights. By the time you get to the fifth press - the high setting - you have ten red lights burning in an arc across the top of the remote. Arrowed buttons on the right side start your patterns. Each press not only changes the patterns (which are varied and long, very useful compared to some) but starts the lights to blinking crazily, a different pattern for each vibrational pattern. PLUS the green lights down the center of the light panel light up with each press until five of them are on.
It sounds confusing, right?
It's not. In use, you simply press for your level of vibration and press for the patterns you like. You can change the level of vibration in each pattern, making it hugely customizable.
But to the eyes...
Omg, the eyes!
I believe I may have had a few seizures using this thing.
The lights, while fun, can be a bit much if you stare at them too long. They've even distracted me from attaining orgasm, the bloody things.
All in all, this is a great bullet. The stimulation is pinpoint and strong -- in fact, I tend to use it at the second or third setting as it's least buzzy yet still plenty strong there. The patterns are great. You have a total of 35 different pattern/strength combos to choose from, which keeps your pleasure varied. I like it a lot.
And yet I still feel vaguely disappointed because it's not... I don't know... making my coffee and rubbing my feet when it's done?
It's just not going to revolutionize my sex life, I guess, and so many reviews led me to believe it was a god amongst vibes.
It's good, but it's not that good.
Clean up with soap and water or a toy wipe or spray, some 10% bleach solution or alcohol. Just use caution as it's not waterproof.
Any lube can be used since this is plastic but, again, use care that you don't get a bunch of lube all up in the control pack somehow.
Runs on 2 AA batteries.

Experience
Many past reviews have talked about how loud this toy is. I find it to be average in noise level, about the same as all bullets. Not loud enough to wake the dead but definitely can be heard thru a closed door
Follow-up commentary
5 months after original review
The Xtreme G-spot bullet underwhelmed me when I first got it and, though I recognize that it's a nice toy, it still continues to do so.
It's strong. It's entertaining, with its little light show. It's got a nice shape. But it's just too buzzy for me and tends to leave me more numb than anything else.
Perhaps it's simply that I like the Joanna Angel Bad Ass G bullet so much.
Regardless, the Xtreme pack, while "okay", isn't something I ever really reach for and I'm not really a bullet lover.
Those who are will, doubtless, be in love.
It's held up well - though, admittedly, it hasn't seen much use - and the cords are intact, unfrayed, uncrimped. The coating on the bullet is in perfect condition and the controller looks great so it obviously is made to last.

Bullets question
-
Are they insertible or is that a no no?
-
Depends. This one you can, although I wouldn't insert it very far to make sure you don't end up with anything getting caught where the cord comes out of the bullet.
-
Definitely not for anal use.

Multiple types?

Has anyone tried multiple types of bullets? How does this one compare to your favorites? Is this your favorite?

This is my first multi function bullet. My other one is just a straight up vibe. This one has a smoother material, and I like the different vibration settings. It's a good value for the price.

Fun or No fun?

Are vibrators fun or what?
-
That one does look fun, but I can't really justify getting it since I already have like 5 bullets.
-
I have this one , I love it.

Would a guy like it?

Do any of you guys have experience using this in the bedroom with your partner?

Quote: Do any of you guys have experience using this in the bedroom with your partner?If you are asking if it would be good for prostate stimulation, I would say no. For that you want something with a flared bottom, like a buttplug has. Otherwise there is a risk that it could go too far in, and you wouldn't be able to get it out. It has a pretty good vibe, but then most guys need a stronger vibe for their prostate. It's also not really ideally shaped for a prostate vibe.
As a g-spot vibe, I would say it's fair. Both the prostate and g-spot need strong stimulation, and this is not a really powerful vibrator. It's also not really long enough to combine thrusting motion with the vibration, which is what these spots love, in particular.
As a clitoral vibe, it's excellent. And that is what I use it for. It can also provide a nice counterpoint, when inserted, to another clitoral vibe.
It's got a really long cord, and this would be good for a partner who wanted to control a vibe stuck in some snug panties or otherwise held up to their partner. It's also pretty quiet, and so is less likely to make you burst out laughing at the noise or otherwise spoil the mood with angry hornet sounds.
Hope that helps :)

Durability and Battery Life
-
Compared to other bullets, how durable is this product? I've treated all my bullets well but one or two have broken within a month or less, is this product worth the money? Thanks!
-
I haven't read all of the reviews, but it seems to be a pretty sturdy option.

looks like something i would try

Question about Xtreme Pack Bullet
-
For those of you that have owned this, how long has it last for you? Even with a fair amount of love n' care my bullets don't last more than a few months and I've come to accept this as a reality of bullet vibrators :(
BUT, seeing as everyone says this is the best darn bullet in the world, I was wondering if maybe it was an exception to this rule? -
My first one lasted a year and a half.
But I've heard of others having much worse luck. -
I guess it's nice to know it at least has the capacity to last that long...there wasn't anything super special you did to extend its life, was there? I usually just try to keep them pretty dry (even when they say waterproof), take the batteries out between uses, and I have started reinforcing the wires at their connections with electrical tape. The tape has actually helped them from coming loose, which is good.
Anyone else have any suggestions?

Oh Xtreme pack g-spot bullet, how I love thee!
-
How are you so wonderful, Xtreme pack g-spot bullet? How do you do it? Day after day, you deal with me shoving batteries in you and then jiggling them out. You let me wash you, unplug you, and throw you in my toy case. And you never falter! When I saw you in a sex toy store recently, I gasped and babbled on about how amazing you are to my boyfriend, because he was standing there, even though he already knows. You inspire me, Xtreme pack g-spot bullet. Just one question: can I call you something else? Your name sucks.
-
*laugh*
One of my newest acquisitions is called "Pyrex dildo mini latty pocket rocket" -- it is seriously in need of a nickname.
I think I'll call my toy 'pete'. -
Latty is kind-of cute. Maybe I should call mine Xtreme or Mr. Xtreme.
