The Hottie by Happy Valley is very attractive dildo|Hottie Dildo by Happy Valley. I received mine in the red, and it is a metallic red/rust color with opalescent swirls--very sexy! It is not incredibly long, coming in at 6 ½” insertable inches, but it definitely does have some girth to it. It has also got a very pronounced ridge below the head, so I do not know that I would recommend this one for beginners. It features a wide base to make it harness compatible, anally safe, and has a hole in it to hold a bullet!

The bullet that comes with the Hottie is quite powerful and runs on 3 watch batteries. The vibrations are, of course, strongest at the base, but they actually carry quite nicely up the shaft. The base is almost, but not quite (for me, at least), large enough to bend up for clitoral stimulation; as is, as the moment of truth arrived, I withdrew the toy and turned it upside down to enjoy clitoral stimulation from the base.

One slight problem I am having with this bullet is getting it out of the dildo! The bullet is able to be inserted all the way into the opening in the base of the toy, and I am finding it nearly impossible, not only to get out, but to unscrew the battery cap. The bullet is also moderately loud for such a small bullet buried in a sheath of heavy silicone.

The feature that really makes the Hottie stand out is its bulbous head with a very pronounced ridge at the base. Very pronounced. Seriously, this thing is like a speed-bump for your vagina (or anus). Now, if you are like me and like to take speed-bumps at a fast speed, you will probably enjoy this from the get-go; if you are relatively new to extreme textures in dongs, go slowly with this one. Once you get into the groove with it, though, it does feel quite amazing. It even has enough of a ridge to be effective for external stimulation.

The Hottie is 100% silicone, so only water-based lubes should be used. It can be sterilized by boiling or running though the dishwasher (top rack, no soap--and only if you can get the darned bullet out!), or wiped down with a 10% bleach solution. It is fairly firm, yet still somewhat flexible, and the material is smooth and luxurious feeling. This is definitely a toy to be admired and enjoyed!
