Sweet Embrace - Man and Machine

I ordered this toy for the sole purpose of using it to experiment with as a man interested in trying a vibrating toy. I was attracted to it because it is waterproof and it doesn't have a base, so I was able to fit it inside a masturbation sleeve that I was no longer using. For the sake of this review I did try it as a prostate massager, and I didn't find this to be well suited to the task. This toy has two ends that are separated by a rubber ring that seals it from water, and on this ring is the control for the toy. This makes it difficult to adjust the speed settings while it is in use. It also means that there isn't much length to work with. I didn't find the thinner end of this toy to be useful at all. It isn't much of a handle and in my experience it just wasn't thick enough.

This toy performed well as a first vibrating toy for me. On its own it wouldn't have been able to bring me to the tipping point, but in combination with the sleeve it made for an interesting foray into vibrating toys. To be a stand alone toy I would need a more powerful vibration, and even then I don't know if vibration is enough on its own. I can say that it did add to the experience of the sleeve. It wasn't ideal, but it was interesting. The shape did not lend itself to the sleeve and actually worked against it.

I recommend that this toy be used for external stimulation and occasionally for penetration, because it does not have the length or a handle that would be suitable for penetration. There are much better toys for that purpose.

Durability was also an issue that I had with this vibrator. I was not using it in a way that is was meant to be used, but it still should have lasted longer than it did. The power/control button fell off after I used it 5 times. Again this was probably due to misuse. I should add that the controls are simple and easy to understand. Press once to turn it on, press again to change to the next setting, press and hold the control button to turn it off. There is no back, only forward, and it takes about 3 seconds of holding to shut off the vibrator.
