Pleasure bendie - traditional vibrator discontinued by Cal Exotics - review by link82

Use:
The 10-Function Pleasure Bendie is a great Cal Exotics product that is perfect for solo use or with a partner. It is waterproof, and the manufacturer's instruction manual says that this toy can be used vaginally and/or anally. Even though I personally stay away from back-door play, I would think this vibe wouldn't be the best choice to use anally, as there is no chord or handle and the vibe itself can get slippery. The Pleasure Bendie requires (3) AAA batteries which go into the battery pack at the base of the toy.

Material/ Texture:
This vibrator feels so soft and very realistic! It is made of Pureskin, which is designed to feel just like a real cock when it is lubed up or wet. Pureskin is also non-porous and easy to maintain! Also, there is no odor like many other realistic materials. The Pleasure Bendie has a spiral texture for amazing added sensations.

Design/ Shape/ Size:
This vibe has a nice size for those that prefer some fullness. At its largest, it is 2" in diameter and 6" in circumference. The tip of the shaft has a diameter of 1-3/8" and a 4" circumference. Overall, it is 6-3/4" in length. The Pleasure Bendie may look a little large for beginners, but the texture is so soft that, with some lube or water, it can be inserted without discomfort. The tip also has a nice, slight curve which helps to pinpoint all of your spots.

The name of this toy defines the best feature - it bends! Even though it can bend in any direction, it can only be bent from the middle. This may be perfect for many people, but because the tip, itself, doesn't bend, it can be difficult for those who like/ need precise g-spot stimulation. For the most part, the flexible shaft will stay once you have your angle, but heavy-thrusters may find themselves adjusting quite often.

Functions/ Performance/ Controls:
This is where the Pleasure Bendie really gets fun! Like the name states, this vibe has ten different functions of vibration, pulsation and escalation. Only one function can be used at a time, and each function has multiple intensity levels, so there are plenty of options to choose from. I personally love strong vibrations, and this vibe definitely has some vroom power! The lower-intensity levels are still somewhat strong, but nothing even the most sensitive people couldn't handle.

The control, which consists of two click-touch buttons, is located at the base of the vibe and covers the battery pack. It can be a little tricky to attach at first, but there are tiny arrows that need to lined up in order to screw in on correctly. The cap, itself, has LED lights to help find the buttons easier. One of the buttons is to turn the toy on or off, and the other goes through each of the 10 functions. The downside to this is that you may have to go through all of the functions just to get to one you want. The other downside to the control pack is the shape of the cap. Because of the LED lights, there is not a flat surface at the base. For those that use multiple toys, or switch back and forth from toy to partner, this makes it difficult to set the vibe aside and keep it clean and upright. Obviously this is not a huge deal, but it can be somewhat annoying at times.

Care & Maintenance:
As I mentioned above, the Pureskin material makes this toy so easy to care for! Cleaning is so simple, just use soap and water or your favorite toy cleaner. Just make sure to avoid getting water into the battery pack. It does tend to collect lint, so I would suggest keeping it in its own case (I put mine in a sealed plastic bag).

Packaging:
The Pleasure Bendie comes nicely packaged in a clear, plastic box. The reverse side shows a photograph of the vibe itself and lists all of the functions it can do. The instruction manual that is included is very helpful and has more useful information that most other toys I have purchased. It includes instructions on how to insert the batteries, what to do if there is an electrical malfunction, and how to use the vibe.

I love this toy! I found it very easy to figure out and use (after about a minute or so), and love the strong vibrations! I have not tried this in water yet, but I'm sure it would be just as fun in water as it is out of it. I like my toys on the thicker side, and this one definitely provides a nice feeling of fullness. This one will stay on the top of my "To-Use" list for now.

Haven't used this one since I first got it. It's not that I didn't like it, there's just other toys that I prefer. I would still recommend this toy.
