Briana's vivid dreams - traditional vibrator discontinued by Doc Johnson - review by VieuxCarre

Briana is a rather classy girl who enjoys tantalizing your G-spot with her smooth rounded head.. Her smooth and curved body make her a rather snug, but comfortable fit for those who enjoy longer, more girthy toys. Briana is best used either in the bed or in the tub, as she is water proof. Using her in the tub adds a bit of sensation to play as the warm water of the tub tends to slip in along with her, adding a warming sensation to those tender walls and pleasure spots within the vagina. I would not recommend taking Briana for a swim in the pool, though, as the chemicals used to sterilize the water can be harmful to the Jelly material that Briana is made with. Briana is an enjoyable lover for the more advanced user and users who enjoy a bit longer toys with a bit more girth as well. She is also a great partner to aid in foreplay and warming your partner up and leaving him/her aching for more.

Beginners beware that Briana has an insertable length of 6", a circumference of 5", and a diameter of roughly 1.7". She is a big bigger than most starter toys and may be a bit of a tight squeeze if you have only just begin experimenting and playing with toys. I find her to be a rather tight fight and I have been using toys and such for the better part of a two years now. Just proceed with caution and be aware that she is quite bulky.

The shaft of the vibrator is made of Jelly, which is porous and not safe to share without a condom. The jelly material allows for Briana to be flexible and reach different spots inside of the vagina, including the G-spot. Along the shaft, Briana is designed with four waves, each wave separating a section of the shaft and adding texture. There are three sections to Briana's shaft:

1. The lower portion: the lower portion is designed to add length to the shaft. The vibrations of the toy do not resonate much in this portion, so if you desire to hold onto a portion of the toy that isn't the handle, this is the portion to hold. Also, this is the beginning point for the 8 columns (as I call them) that travel up through the middle portion of the shaft. These columns add a bit of texture as well, but are not an overload. The ripple that separates the lower portion from the middle curves outward and is a bit "jagged", leaving room for a bit more stimulation to resonate against the walls of the vagina or labia depending on how far you insert the toy.

2. The middle portion: the middle portion is significantly shorter than the lower portion. This portion of the shaft serves to stimulate the areas around the G-spot while inserted in the vagina. The 8 columns that began down in the lower portion end in this section, curving to form a rounded head. The ridges of the columns work to gently massage the inner walls as the harder vibrations travel up to the tip of the shaft, the head. The portion that separates the middle portion from the head is rounded and smooth, leaving room for the harder vibrations to centralize in the head area.

3. The head: the head is completely smooth and rounded. There are no ridges or texture added to the head. The vibrations travel up through the lower portions and centralize here. This is the most stimulating portion of the toy. The fact that the vibrations are centralized here in the head separates Briana from most other vibrators that disperse vibrations equally. The head vibrates the hardest of all the sections and is perfect for stimulating the G-spot and gaining a response from it. The fact that the head is smooth allows for a better chance of finding and stimulating the G-spot.

The jelly material of the toy did not have a strong smell upon removal from the packaging and is not pleasing to the taste buds. Unless you enjoy tasting bitterness, I wouldn't recommend licking or inserting Briana into the mouth. The material itself is great for advanced users and beginners. The toy, however, may not be suitable for beginners as I stated before.

As I stated above in the Materials/Texture section, Briana has several bumps and waves to add stimulation and texture. The way that the curves are placed along the shaft aided in stimulating other areas of the vagina while in use. The motor used to provide vibrations is quiet and not easily heard from another room. Since most of the vibrations are located in the head of the toy, the sound is muffled due to the head being submerged in warm walls and love juices.

Briana is a bit long, though, at 8" all together and isn't the easiest thing to hide, so I wouldn't recommend taking her in a carry on bag on a flight or placing her in a purse where she would be easily seen. I would store her with caution so that she is not detected by those you do not want to find her.

Briana runs off of two AA batteries that are placed inside the shaft. The cap at the base of the toy unscrews to reveal the battery compartment. There is no indicator to say which way the batteries need to be inserted, so just placing them in and screwing the cap back on worked for me. If it doesn't work for you, simply remove the cap and flip the batteries around.

The cap itself has a dial on it that is easy to turn. Turning the dial clockwise turns the vibrator on at a low setting. The more you turn the dial, the harder the vibrations get. The shift in vibration settings is smooth and gradual, so there is no obvious jump between soft, medium, and hard. The only problem with the dial, though, is that while in use it is easily turned the opposite way. I had to stop several times when I felt the vibrations were softer and make sure that the dial was turned completely clockwise to the highest setting. The controls are extremely convenient, easy to use, and leave no guess work as to how the vibrator is to be turned on or off. To turn it off, simply turn the dial counterclockwise until the toy is completely off and the dial can turn no more.

As I stated before, the toy itself is not all that noisy while in use. The location of the hardest vibration is in the head and is muffled fairly well by the vaginal walls. Briana is water proof and the water tends to magnify the sound just a bit, but once inserted the noise is muffled. I would not recommend using her in the bathtub if you are trying to be discreet and/or live at home. I also would not recommend using Briana in the pool, as stated in the Use section, because of the porous texture of the jelly and the possibility of the chemicals ruining the material.

If you are a lubricant lover, proceed with caution. Only use water-based or silicone lubricants with Briana. Any others may cause damage to the jelly.

Since Briana is porous, boiling is not an option and she absolutely cannot be sterilized. If you plan on sharing this toy with others, use a condom. Once you have finished using the toy, clean up is fairly easy. Simply clean Briana with warm water and toy cleaner or soft soap. Harsher soaps can cause damage to the toy's material.

Store Briana in a drawer, a bag, or anywhere that you keep toys in your room. Do not store her in the trunk of your car or anywhere that will be extremely hot. Extreme temperatures can prove to be damaging to the jelly as well.

I personally love Briana. I have a hard to reach G-spot and I am able to reach it every time I use her. The fact that she is flexible leaves me room to feel around and adjust her while she is inserted. The larger, rounded head makes it easier to find my spot as well. I am very pleased with Briana and find her to be one fabulous G-spot toy.
