Use

Don't buy this toy if you don't like, or aren't used to, big toys. It is quite large, and will fill you all the way. This toy is great if you enjoy size. I personally like size, and this meets the challenge. Beginners should look elsewhere, and experienced toy users should have some lube handy. It hits my g-spot with no trouble at all because of the size. Unless you are experienced with anal play, I wouldn't recommend using this for that.

Material / Texture

The material doesn't add to the pleasure, I think it detracts from it slightly. It is made of a semi-soft rubber material. The texture is slightly veined, but not enough to add to the experience. The surface is very smooth and seamless. It glides easily enough with some lube. The rubber is slightly sticky, so be sure to clean it well before and after each use.

- Light odor
- Smooth
- Sticky

Design / Shape / Size

I love the size. Most vibrators do not come close to the size of this thing. It isn't inhumanly big, but it is definitely bigger than the average dick. Again, not for the beginner. It would be better if the veins and head were sculpted a bit more realistically. It's a little smoother than I expected. I wouldn't recommend trying to bring this big boy on a vacation. It isn't the most discreet item.

Functions / Performance / Controls

With the sleeve on, the vibrations are significantly weakened. The vibrator is quite strong on its own though. It's a bit heavy, being that it takes C batteries, but that gives it more power. Even with the diminishing properties of the sleeve, the vibrations can still be felt. Changing speeds is a bit clumsy. I have never been a fan of the dial controls of traditional vibrators. It is a little noisy, but nothing that would be heard on the other side of a closed door. The noise is a bit of a mood killer though.

- Easy to use
- Not very discreet

Care and Maintenance

This is very easy to clean. The sleeve is a pain to get on and off due to the material. Using lube helps, but still it's easier to clean as one piece. I just spray on some toy cleaner and wipe it down. Because of the slight stickiness of the toy, you need to clean it before and after use, which is a little annoying.
