A Beautiful Flower Gone Haywire!

For the cost of $14.99 and a couple of C batteries, this traditional vibrator deserves a place in your toy collection. Designed for the beginner, but has the power a more experienced user craves, this one will fit just about anyone's needs. It's great for sexual play. as well as a great body massager. It has the advantage of not requiring lube, until that last moment. A cheap price that really does deliver!

Use

My wife decided to purchase this vibrator. In a way, I'm a bit glad. The pink color makes a good contrast to all the purple toys she has. Besides, what she don't know won't hurt her! Anyway, on to the review.

Pleasure petals is a traditional vibrator made by N.M.C., which stands for Nanma Manufacturing Company Ltd. Although Eden sells this vibrator in the color pink, it also comes in the color purple, green and blue.

Normally, I put traditional style vibrators more into the hands of beginners. This is usually due to the size and the function/vibrations of the toy. This particular one, although I think beginners would enjoy, I would have to put it in the hands of intermediate to experienced users. This vibrater is on the larger end of the traditional style and has extremely strong vibrations.

It can be used for solo play as well as couples. The only major downside is that it is not waterproof. It is one toy that is definitely scared of water.

This particular vibrator fits the bill on traditional vibrators. It can be used as an all over body massage. It can stimulate the nipples, clitoris, labia and also insertion. On a man, it can stimulate the scrotum and
the periuneum. This toy is not designed for anal use, as most traditional vibrators are not. There is no flared base or any way to stop the toy from total insertion and have a way to retrieve it.

Material / Texture

This toy is made from plastic. It has the distinction of also having a velvet coating on the shaft. The velvet coating is actually a polyurethane coating on top of the plastic. It gives the plastic a smooth, softer feeling. Both the plastic and the coating are Latex and Phthalate free and are also Hypo-allergenic. Most people should not have any adverse reactions to this material. The one thing to note is that there is an open spot in the coating, at the very tip. Although quite small, I did think it to be noteworthy. I do not believe there to be any affects as far as the use or longevity of this toy.

As I have stated, the shaft has a velvet coating. This makes the hard texture of the plastic seem softer. The toy is rigid, which makes it easy to use as an all over body massager. The coating makes it easily moved on the skin without any resistance. As with all toys of a solid, rigid structure, care must be taken to avoid too forceful of movements, especially thrusting movements when inserted. Toys of this type can and will do damage if not properly respected.

There is also a flower design on the shaft of this vibrator. It adds some texture, especially to the labia, when inserted. There is nothing too intimidating about the design, nor does it make cleaning more difficult.

There is no smell to this type of material. The texture of this vibrator puts it in the beginners hands, while other qualities lean further up to the more experienced.
    • No odor
    • Rigid

Design / Shape / Size

The shape of this vibrator is of coarse, the traditional style. There are small flower, leaf, and stem designs molded into the plastic shaft. The height of the design puts it about 1/32 of an inch off the base of the shaft. Nothing too intimidating for use. The battery cap and control knob are made from a clear plastic. The control knob is at the very base, has multiple ridges to aid in finger grip, and has one screw that is visible in the center.

The body of the vibrator is 6 1/2 inches long, which is also the insertable length. The control knob/battery cap are 1 inch long, which puts the total length at 7 1/2 inches. The flower design starts at 1 5/8 inches from the tip, which gives plenty of room for using the tip to stimulate different areas of the body, which may not like a more textured feeling. One other thing to note is that the design is on seperate sides of the body, and is not too much in the way of added texturing. The diameter for this vibrator is 1 1/4 inches.

The size and shape of this toy give it away as its intended use. Due to that, I would put this toy in the non-discreet area. Although a larger size purse or suitcase would conceal this toy on road trips, I wouldn't take this to an airport.
    • Partner play
    • Whimsical / artistic

Functions / Performance / Controls

The Pleasure Petals Vibrator has a variable speed control. The vibrator motor starts in about a 5 degree turn of the knob. It reaches the highest setting in under a half of a turn. The vibrator is located approximately 1 inch from the tip, which makes an all over body massage perfect. It also allows for point stimulation without any weakening of the vibrations. That being said, the vibrations can be felt throughout the toy, due to its plastic, rigid structure. Yes, if you hold on to it while it's on high, freehand, it will make your hand a bit numb.

The lowest setting is slightly noisier than a battery operated shaver and the highest setting is similar to an electric shaver. It will be able to be heard under blankets and on the higher settings, through a hollow door. Music or the television should be able to drowned out most of the noise, but on the highest setting, they might have some trouble at a normal volume level.

As I stated earlier, this toy is not waterproof, or resistant for that fact. There is no seal at the battery case or the control knob. Do not take this one swimming or in the shower. In all likelihood, it would be the last you will use of it.

This particular vibrator has extremely high vibrations. It may be a bit powerful for some, especially on high. It also has a very strong period of vibration. By that, I mean that the vibration is long, even on a low speed. This, combined with the added diameter, compared to traditional vibes, is why I chose to put this in the intermediate to more experienced users category.
    • Easy to use
    • Powerful

Care and Maintenance

Care and maintenance of this toy is quite simple. Do not boil this toy, as it is plastic, and extreme heat will distort this toy. You can clean this toy with soap and water. You can also use a toy cleaner or alcohol if needed. Please be sure to use a condom if you share, but I always recommend not to share. Please make sure the vibrator is cleaned before and after each use. Remember to make sure it's dry before you store it.

This toy is compatible with all types of lubricants. My wife choose to use water based on all of our toys. It makes things so much simpler. We usually use climax-bursts-cooling for our toy needs. Please remember to be careful when cleaning around the control knob. That's why water based works the best for us.

This vibrator takes two C sized batteries. Please remember to have spares on hand and remove them for storage. Also, make sure the battery cap is tight, otherwise you may find that this toy just won't want to work properly.


This vibrator does not require special storage. It is not a dust or lint magnet and is pretty stable with temperature. My wife and I store ours in the original packaging.

Packaging

This vibrator comes in a see-through plastic container, which is hinged at the bottom. It is molded to fit the toy and makes an excellent storage container. There is a plastic insert which shows the picture of a woman, fully clothed. It gives the name Pleasure petals, and says it has a slippery velvet touch. It also says it's 7 inches long, but I think they misread the data sheet. The back gives the battery directions, states it is non-toxic and states it is made in China. This vibrator also comes with a small paper instruction manual.

The container is 10 1/2 inches tall and 4 5/8 inches wide and has a base depth of 1 3/4 inches. There is also a hole for hanging at the top. The container is by no means discreet, but does make a wonderful storage spot for the vibrator. It creates a tight seal so you don't have to worry about the toy falling out.
    • Good for storage
    • Not discreet
    • Very informative

Personal comments

This is a toy that my wife chose to purchase. It has all the qualities of a traditional vibrator, including the fact that it makes a great massage tool. I love the fact that I can relax the tight muscles of my wife and send the problems of the day away in a hurry, then switch to a teasing, playful mood and finally stimulating her into an orgasm. This toy has the benefit of not needing lube for the massage or even the playful teasing. It works wonders in the fact that I don't have to reach for another toy and the mood isn't broken and there's no distractions.

The only real downside to this toy is the amount of noise. My wife has experienced many different types of toys, so the vibrations didn't blast her away. They may be too much for the beginner, though. The noise is a bit more than our liking, due to the fact we have a baby in the house.

This vibrator will get its fair share of use. It's strong, soft textured and very multi-purposed. It's also more of a size that fits someone that is a bit more experienced with toys. On to my wife's thoughts:

Experience

I bought this because I wanted a simple traditional vibrator. The fact that it is pink is only because it is not available in any other color. I must not have been paying close attention to the details of this product because I only realized it took "C" batteries after arrival. Personally, I try to stay away from toys that are not "AA" or "AAA". I am pleased that I did however miss the fact of the batteries. This toy would be a good choice for anyone, beginners through advanced users.

There were only two things that I did not completely like about the Pleasure Petal. The noise that this one can generate does seem to take away from your sexual experience, as it can be somewhat distracting. The other was that the settings were not extremely noticeable when cycling through. I obviously knew when it was turned on and off, but everything in between had very subtle changes. I hardly noticed any difference in sensations while going through the settings. That said, that means it starts strong without noticeable variations. and ends strong I prefer the "lower" settings or rather barely turning the knob to turning it full blast. The vibrator does pack a punch and is a bit too powerful in vibrations for my liking. This is something that I would expect because of the batteries that it does take.

The Pleasure Petal Vibrator does have its benefits. It is solid and can produce close to pinpoint accuracy when experimenting with clitoral or even nipple play. And the added bonus of being a wonderful tool to help in giving massages. I also like the design on the Pleasure Petals Vibrator, it is a slightly raised design, but it is not overwhelming felt. It is more eye-appeal then adding any extra stimulations.

I am happy to be adding this to our collection, even if it is a color I am not preferable too. It may not be brought out and used all the time, due alot to the noise it can produce. I enjoy having a non-intimidating traditional vibrator.
