Handy massager - pocket rocket discontinued by WHK GmbH - review by Bulma

Let me start by letting you in on a little secret...this is actually my first pocket rocket|Handy massager! Pocket rockets are a classic staple of toy chests the world over, from what I hear. Well I was out of the loop I guess. Having no prior experience with this type of toy, I was a little apprehensive at first. I was concerned that it would be a little awkward to use, or that I wouldn't like it as much as my other discreet vibrating toys|Vibrators (namely my bullet vibes). Thankfully, my fears turned out to be untrue, and I wish I had gotten one sooner.

The packaging was pretty simple, and showed some different ways to use the massager. For headaches, sore muscles, and nipples apparently (the picture was a little confusing as I couldn't tell exactly where the little pencil drawn woman was putting the massager. Nipples just made sense to me). There was also a little diagram of pressure points of the feet. I did not even try that one out, as I know it wouldn't do much for me given the extreme nature of the ticklish tendencies of my feet. I may actually use it for migraines on occasion, but mainly this will be a sexual toy.

I found this toy easy to operate. The turn dial controls are marked by "on," "off," and "open." When in the open position the bottom just pops out allowing you to put the single AA battery in place. I was afraid that this kind of battery compartment would pop open or not be very secure, but my fears were unfounded and the toy performed well. There was a little rubber O-ring that allows the toy to be used in water. I tested this out by letting it sit in a glass of water while turned on for 10 minutes. When I took it out and opened it, I found that a tiny bit of moisture had made it inside. I just took the battery out and let everything set and dry. It didn't damage it at all, and I have used it in the shower a couple times without incident.

The power seems to be pretty good. I really enjoy it as a massager, but as a toy for the clit, I wish it had a couple different settings for power. The power level was a little too intense at first so I placed a blanket between me and it. Once I was more turned on, the intensity felt nice and I was able to orgasm while using this in conjunction with a dildo (sans blanket of course).

The four different caps add something a little different to the sensations, and can be changed pretty easily without them falling off. There is a smooth rounded cap, a cap with flat raised bumps, one with little spikes (they don't poke or hurt unless you really try at it) and the fourth cap has many little spiky nubs that are longer in the center and shorter near the edge. My personal favorites are the smooth cap and the one with long spikes in the center and shorter ones at the edges. The smooth one feels the best to me when used on the clit.

The hard plastic is easy to clean. It is waterproof so you can wash it in the sink with warm water and mild soap. Personally I like to use Before and After toy cleaner|Before and After toy cleaner, but your favorite toy cleaner would probably work really well too. For storage, it is recommended that you take the batteries out first, just to avoid them leaking and ruining the toy.
