This classic toy is well-loved for a reason, very few people don't react well to the Hitachi's powerful vibrations- however, I am one of those rare people. I have used the Hitachi on a male partner, and a female partner, as well as myself. I will go through each of our experiences.



My Experience-
As I mentioned above, the Hitachi is not my favorite toy. I ordered it fully expecting to enjoy its powerful vibrations, however, I was disappointed with my body's reaction to the toy. Even though the vibrations felt good, they did not make me orgasm and actually started making me numb after a few minutes. I have heard of a few other people who have had the same feeling as me, yet, I do still have a ton of love for the Hitachi. I love using it on my partners and I feel that it is a fun and easy toy to travel with. It's great for forced orgasms!

It does give a great back massage though!

His Experience-
I like to use the Hitachi, both on myself and on others. It's easy to carry around and it's good for bondage situations. The sensation works well on my balls and penis, it can almost make me cum.

Her Experience-
Initially overwhelming, the Hitachi gave me a different quality of sensation. I'm not going to say it was never painful, but I enjoyed it. I definitely didn't go numb, but it felt more like a deeper sensation. It was good and I come from it really hard. I love it but I wouldn't do it every time. It also gets painful really fast after you come.

Popular uses for the Hitachi
The Hitachi is a popular tool for BDSM play parties. Because the Hitachi gives such amazing orgasms, so quickly, it is often used to give forced orgasms- multiple orgasms to the point of painful pleasure.

The Cleaning
The Hitachi should be used, with either a condom or a head attachment, especially if you are sharing the toy between non-fluid bonded partners. It is a little difficult to stretch a condom over the huge head of the Hitachi, however, it is worth it to have a clean toy!

The Packaging-
The box is covered in hilarious photographs of people from the 1980's giving themselves backrubs. I really enjoyed the packaging and I believe that this would make a wonderful, slightly discreet, gift for someone's bachelorette/bachelor party or birthday.



I know that a lot of people think that 50 dollars is a lot to spend on a sex toy, but the Hitachi is certainly worth it. Even if your body doesn't react to the Hitachi, your lover's body might!

When I first received the Hitachi, I pulled it out of its wonderful 70s style box and tried it out that very night. I was disappointed with the way that my body reacted to the Hitachi, but I like how my partner's bodies contract to the powerful vibrations the Hitachi offers.

I love the Hitachi, not what it does for my body but for what it does to my lover's body. I know that I can make other people cum, hard, with this wonderful vibe. I'm planning on buying my girlfriend a Hitachi for her house so that she never needs to be without one! It can make her orgasm about ten times in an hour, the problem isn't reaching orgasm with the Hitachi it's stopping orgasming. She says that the first orgasm the Hitachi gave her was the most powerful she has ever had.
