Oh, Honi!

This item is quite outstanding for what you pay for it - lovely smooth silicone and vibrations that are far stronger than expected for an item of its size while remaining nearly silent. Combine this with excellent battery life and its extreme cuteness, and it's a definite winner.

Use

This toy stimulates both pinpoint things, such as the clitoris, and if you use it more on the lengthy side, it can stimulate larger areas as well. It's insertible vaginally and wearable in public because it's completely silent. It's very close to silent when used externally, so it's also something you can tuck in your purse. This toy is waterproof, so it works well in the bathtub and/or shower. This works well for pretty much everything except anal. DO NOT insert this anally; it's far, far far too small - even with a retrieval cord, and I'm pretty willing to bet that you'd rather not end up in the ER explaining this one.

This toy is made of silicone and plastic which are both tasteless and body-safe, so it's good for all users. This toy will work well for beginners, more advanced users, and people who like using/wearing toys in public.

Best situations to use this toy? Almost everywhere - the fact that it's nearly silent means that it could be used in roommate/dorm living situations or in public, and the fact that it's waterproof means it can go for a bath with you or for a swim, and it's small enough to be tucked in a purse or makeup bag without a problem.

Material / Texture

The body of this bullet vibe is made of smooth, lush silicone - and it's tasteless and scentless. It does have seams in the silicone on the sides, but I only find them noticeable in my hands - not when inserted or in use on various body parts (clitoris, nipples, etc.)

The body of the vibrator is a bit more of a dusty blue than pictured on the product page as it's silicone, but the plastic cap that covers the battery compartment is a vivid shiny blue. The silicone gives it a little drag - just so you know - but I mostly find it pleasureable when inserting it. It can be a bit tricky to insert if not either naturally lubricated or using some form of lube. Water-based lubes only, though! (The manual specifically states not to use oil-based or hand creams.)

The embossed Picobong logo on the side isn't easily felt once it's inserted; I've never noticed it when I'm wearing it around the house. I think beginners wouldn't be overwhelmed by the bit of drag, and more experienced users would find it pleasant.
    • No odor
    • Not porous at all
    • Smooth

Design / Shape / Size

I think the design of this toy is very well done. The increase and decrease buttons are in the P and B of the Picobong logo, which is cute, but it does mean that you can't access the controls once it's fully inserted. The shape of it gives you enough to hold on to for clitoral use or other pinpoint vibrations, and the tapered tip makes it possible to do pinpoint vibrations. The size isn't something that will satisfy size queens once inserted, but for the average person, it'll probably be enough. It's something that I think a virgin could probably use without difficulty - to me, it feels slightly bigger than a super tampon.

The Honi is pretty small, so it's definitely going to be easier to hide (drop it in a drawstring bag or a small makeup bag and put it in a drawer.) It's going to be obvious to people what it is if they see it laying in the open. It's suitable for travel, but I would still put it in a checked bag and remove the batteries as it doesn't lock.

A comparison of the size of the Honi vs a pen:

    • Beginner
    • Brightly colored
    • Small

Functions / Performance / Controls

First off, the controls are located in the Picobong logo. The increase button (marked with a +) is in the b, and the decrease button (marked with a -) is located in the P. Once you've found them, you're good to go - just push and hold the plus sign for about 2 seconds to get the vibrator to turn on and push and hold for another two seconds to get the vibration speed to increase.

The vibrations are located more towards the tip of this bullet/egg but can definitely be felt throughout the body of the entire vibrator. I really like all of the vibrations with this one (though the highest one can be a bit numbing to your clit and your fingers after an extended period of time), but I find that I tend to have a bit of difficulty switching between the steady vibration levels and the vibration patterns. It generally takes a few tries to hold the plus (+) button long enough to get it to switch over which is frustrating. The box says that it has 12 modes, but after a lot of careful triple checking, I counted 16.

Steady vibrations
1. slow, rumbly vibration
2. medium low, rumbly vibration
3. medium vibration
4. medium-high (starts to get a little buzzy here)
5. highest steady vibration, also a little buzzy.

To switch from the steady vibration patterns, you have to press and hold the plus (+) button for 3-5 seconds.

Vibration patterns:
6. low rumbly vibration to a high buzzy one (sounds kind of like a cell phone's vibration when you get a call or a text.)
7. slightly faster version of low rumbly vibration to a high buzzy vibration
8. fastest version of low rumbly vibration to a high buzzy vibration
9. pulsing high vibration
10. escalating vibration (low to high, then drops abruptly back to a low vibration)
11. faster escalating vibration
12. escalating and decreasing (low to high, then low again. This one goes to a higher vibration intensity than just the escalate and drop settings)
13. faster escalating and decreasing
14. escalating, then two pulses at the highest vibration
15. faster escalating, then 4 pulses at the highest vibration
16. random escalation and decreasing and pulsing

The patterns will just repeat themselves if you keep pushing the plus (+) button. To go back to steady vibrations, push the minus (-) button.

In terms of noise, it's about the same as a louder cell phone - say one that you'd hear through someone's jeans pockets or purse. It definitely can't be heard through a door or a wall. In the tub and shower, it performs wonderfully - as the manufacturer states, it's waterproof up to a meter (roughly 3 feet.) It doesn't have an O-ring, but instead there is a raised portion of silicone that seals against the battery compartment cap.
    • Discreet sound
    • Easy to use
    • Multiple settings

Care and Maintenance

As this is silicone/plastic, this is very easy to clean. I simply scrub it down with a bit of antibacterial soap and water, or if you wanted to, you can use a toy cleaner. I also wipe down the part of the vibrator that rests against the battery compartment cap with a damp q-tip or cotton ball. You could potentially use a 10% bleach solution for the silicone portion of the vibrator, but as bleach can warp plastic, be careful to only use it on the silicone if you decide to go that route. Don't boil this toy as it has mechanical parts and you'd damage them.

I just drop it in a lightly padded makeup bag after removing the AAA-battery. Speaking of batteries - I know it says up to 2 hours with a single AAA, but I've used it 6 times at about 30 minutes each time with one battery, so if you're taking the battery out between sessions, you may get more out of a battery than stated. Do not store this with other silicone toys, and don't use this with silicone lubes - you'll warp the silicone's finish! Water-based lubes are the only ones recommended in the user's manual.
    • Easy to clean
    • Easy to store

Packaging

This toy comes in a little cardboard box that is the color of the vibrator inside. The back of the box is in English, Spanish, German, and French, so just about everyone will be able to read it. It's cute enough for a gift box, but it's definitely not meant for long-term storage. It's also not discreet at all - you can clearly see the toy through a plastic front.

The front of the box also points out that it's waterproof, near silent, has 12 modes, and requires 1 AAA battery. The toy is securely attached inside of it on a piece of black cardboard, but it's simple to get out. The box includes a fairly basic instruction booklet and a pamphlet on a 1 year limited warranty (both are in English, Spanish, German, and French.

The little pink and black die that comes with it is glued to the black cardboard, and when you take the die out of the box, the adhesive used peels off the top layer of the cardboard. If you've got fingernails, it'll only take a few pulls to get all the sticky off, and it does come off cleanly (I didn't have to use Goo-Gone to get any of it off.)

The back of the box:
    • Not discreet
    • Recyclable
    • Would make a nice gift

Experience

I've really enjoyed using this toy. It got here, and I had to take it out of the box immediately and find a battery and wash it and use it! The tapered tip is excellent for pinpoint stimulation, and it's small enough that when worn internally. It's definitely become my go-to toy, and I'm impressed enough that I may have to try others from the Picobong line.
