I have had this vibrator for over a year and it is still going strong. The vibrations are fairly strong at the tip and feel great for clitoral and vaginal stimulation. I like the length and thickness of the vibrator and the slight curve makes it comfortable. The silicone is soft and has always been easy to clean. I use a water-based lube when I need it.

This vibrator is pretty quiet, even when used on the highest setting. It might be heard through a door in a quiet house, but a small fan would easily cover the noise. As I've had the vibrator and used it often, I have noticed that lately it can make a buzzing sound if you press too hard. It's not very loud, but it is louder than the typical vibration.

The downsides to this product are the controls and the battery cover. The controls are very easy to master. There's one button for vibration intensity and one that cycles through the different functions. The problem with these controls is that they can sometimes be hit accidentally when in use, which can be distracting, but that doesn't even compare to the disaster that is the battery compartment. I have knocked the cap off accidentally so many times. It's very easy to do. When it happens, you have to stop everything and dig in the covers to find the cap and the batteries that have spilled out. It's very frustrating, because you have to fumble around in the dart to try and fix things.

Even still, I love the sensations and strength that this vibe has and because of that I still reach for it even with the problems it has. It's quiet, so it could be good for people who live in a dorm or have a roommate. As for dealing with the battery cap, just be careful not to grab near the end of the shaft and you will be fine.
