As "newbies" to toys, my husband and I decided to buy several cheaper toys in different styles and shapes that were produced by companies that we may not have experienced. I made the choices and he simply looked forward to the arrival of the box since it would mean lots of play time and experimentation.

This toy is beautiful to look at and fit my hand perfectly. Since my husband is into Star Trek, I could picture my husband picking up this toy and pretending to fly it through space.

Before I get to the specifics - let's get the boring parts out of the way - OK?

Since this toy is made of plastic Food-grade material, it is hypo-allergenic,latex free and phthalates free. What does this mean to you? It means you can clean it easily with some hot water and soap. You shouldn't boil it or put it in the dishwasher though. It also means that you can use any type of lube with this product - oil based, water based, or silicone based. The choice is up to you.

This toy takes 2 AAA batteries which are easily inserted and have a great diagram to even show you which way to insert them. It is 7.5" long with 4.5" being insertable and has a 4.5" circumference.

The black button will take you through all five speeds. There is a gentle vibration that teases, a slightly stronger vibration, an escalating mode that is soft-soft-strong, a constant soft pulse, and then the final speed alternates soft and strong pulses. You must cycle through all the vibrations to turn the vibrator off. I do find the vibrations to be quite buzzy.

This item is definitely not in a discreet package as it is clear hard plastic with writing that states that "exquisite sensations provide orgasmic thrills".

So, now that we're done with the boring stuff - let's get back to my story - shall we?

After looking at the vibrator together, my husband and I decided to start playing with all our new toys. I halfway expected my big kid to go "vroom, vroom" as he turned this one on but I honestly never realized when he started using it. He actually started using it on my clitoris and it felt good. It wasn't great but it wasn't bad either. I just tend to like bullets the best for my clitoris.

When he inserted it, he was mainly teasing me, as I wasn't fully warmed up. It is one of our smaller toys when it comes to girth and he wanted me to experience it while I was still fairly tight.

He cycled through to the third speed because the first two were not doing anything for me. When he got to the third option and left it there, I was getting frustrated and told him I was naming the toy after an actor who is well-known for playing a Star Trek captain. My husband laughed and asked me why and I said, "Because its promising pleasure - but never delivers."

My husband laughed again and pushed the button once more. Nothing much happened so he went to the fifth speed and suddenly we were at warp speed one, full speed ahead. Oh, that felt so good. When he saw my reaction, he proceeded to thrust this a bit (and we joked later because I will never again hear the phrase "thrusters on full" without thinking of this toy) and I went into orbit.

Unfortunately, so did this toy. Well, at least it launched itself in such a way that my husband could not hold on to it very well. He said later that he was using his fingernails to hold onto the hard plastic base because once my kegels caught this toy to play with it, it was out of his control.

I never noticed - I was in orbit myself.

To say we both love this toy would be an understatement. We love it for its beauty and it adds something to our collection as far as its design goes. It adds humor because of how much it reminds my husband of a futuristic spaceship. When on its highest setting, it gives me a "wow" sensation.

We're now keeping our eyes open for toys of this shape/design because we find that it works really well for me. The only problem we find with it is that it is not long enough and it makes the button hard to clean because I always seem to draw the majority of this toy in even if I'm not trying to do so. I also prefer something that is larger in diameter.

We still use this sometimes and its held up very well. I kind of like it more than I did before but it isn't one of our top three "go to" toys or anything like that.
