Fairy baby wand - massager by Media Craft Inc - review by aliceinthehole

The smallest of its Fairy Wand brethren is the Fairy Baby Wand. It's an unobtrusive little vibrator for those looking to small packages for power, who need discretion in their back pocket (or on their keychain, even).

Fairly quiet with buzzy vibrations, this massager is fine for group living situations and best suited for clitoral or nipple stimulation. She'll have your teeth chattering! The high-frequency vibrations come in one speed only, manipulated by a simple on/off switch.

Beginners and sex toy collectors alike can find a place in their toy drawer for the Baby Wand. This is great for those just getting into vibrators due to its unintimidating stature and appearance - it's so pink and light and cute! It also functions as a novelty toy for collectors of rechargeable, green toys, or even great things in small packages. There's something for everyone here!

The lithium ion battery charges easily with the included USB cable, and both pieces fit easily into the palm. There's no reason you can't take your Fairy Baby Wand anywhere you like - to the bathroom, on a trip, to work, in the car, to a play party, wherever!

The USB cable can be converted into a conventional wall outlet plug with a simple device such as this:


This USB to AC/DC converter is available in any electronics store and can be found pretty cheaply. It's also useful for other devices, such as the iPod, when coupled with the iPod-compatible USB cable.

A big plus to the ABS plastic used here is that it's Phthalates free, hypo-allergenic, food-grade material and latex-free. Though it's not completely non-porous and the toy is not sterilizable, you can surely get it pretty clean with antibacterial wipes. It's much safer than toys made of jelly, TPR/TPE or other porous materials.

ABS plastic is used throughout the toy. As a hard, dense plastic, it is more likely than soft plastics to be non-porous, but I've yet to find strict confirmation of the fact. Still, it's easy to clean and does its job just fine.

The body is a hard plastic, and the head is a softer, more velvety plastic. It has a slight drag to it, which adds to sensation on the sensitive areas.

A teeny weeny thing, at only 3/4" diameter and 2 3/4" length, this is certainly an underestimated wand. It's not even enough wand to wave at someone, if it were truly magical! With a head that's merely 3/4" x 3/4", it's just large enough to tantalize your most sensitive areas - the clitoris and nipples, namely.

The head is attached to the body via a small ribbed neck. Ribs accent the base of the head as well. The head does not bend or rotate, though it appears it should.

A tiny pink lanyard, similar to the string-and-keyring setup one sees on phone charms, comes in the package and attaches to the end of the toy. It helps you keep hold of it when in use, as there's not much toy to hold onto, and also can function as an attachment to your binder or keyring. Imagine! Something so discreet and tiny you can literally carry it everywhere. Pretty sweet.

The USB cable was disappointing, however. It's definitely the most cheaply-made USB cable I've ever seen. It attaches to the toy only very loosely, and falls out with the slightest tug or bump. I find this rather characteristic of toys made in China. They are cheap, made with cheap parts, cheap labor, and cheap plastics. This is really no exception.

With the low-quality of the cable in mind, I don't really expect this toy to last a very long time. Certainly, my general experience with rechargeable toys have been that they're unreliable. They always get an electrical short around the 6 month mark, and eventually crap out for good.

The USB computer attachment body lights up red when the device is fully charged. No more than 10 minutes are needed to bring the vibrator from dead to fully charged.

After five minutes the charge begins to noticeably drop (if only barely), along with the power of the vibrations. The buzzy bees gradually turn into light butterflies over the course of the battery life when unattached to a power source. Of course, you can always use this while plugged into the wall, but since the cable is only 18" long, you'll have to be pretty close to the source. This may come in handy, of course, if you like to look at sexy media on your computer while you play. Then you can ditch the USB-AC/DC converter and plug right into your computer while you surf the world wide web or watch your dirty movie.

After 1 hour of use the vibes go from a '2 Vroom' power to off. Then it's time to charge again.

The toy has only two modes - on and off. This is a little disappointing, as someone who enjoys fiddling with vibration patterns, and bringing a toy to its limits, usually settling for the strongest setting available. Still, one has to give this toy props. The 'on' is stronger than most bullets of this size I've run across.

The silence this toy carries is wonderful. For appearing to be so cheaply made, it is really quiet. It can barely be heard under covers, or even above covers, for that matter. For this reason, it's perfect for dorm living or those with nosy roommates. They'll never suspect a thing! Even with this little toy on your keychain, only those with dirty minds will suspect the true function of this cutesy pink thing.

With antibacterial wipes you'll never have to worry about germs on this vibe. A quick swipe with one of those, coupled with a dry brushing of the gunk-collecting ridges with an old toothbrush, and you'll be ready to go. The toy doesn't collect lint or dust at all, and the smooth surface is very easy to remove dirt or stains from.

You can store this wherever you like, but preferably away from any place damp, as it's about as waterproof as your cellphone or iPod. So, not waterproof at all.

Very minimal packaging was used for this toy. It came in a pop-out plastic case that showcased the toy in a non-sexual way, and was covered with Chinese writing which I could not decipher. Next to no English, and certainly no useful English, adorned the package. Nothing in the way of instructions was provided at all. Still, this is a fairly straight-forward toy, and I'm sure any consumer can figure it out without much trouble.

The package is not useful for storing the toy - it's too bulky and awkward, but can be re-closed if you're intent upon using it as such.
