- Waterproof
Cons
- Small, short
- Does not target G-spot
- Difficult to plug into the charging cable
Design

The Rave Ripple by Calexotics is designed to be fun. The packaging, title, and toy itself is meant to scream rave. The font on the box mimics the electro-futurist vibe of raves, and the color is fun and wild. The dripping texture on the toy reads almost like dragon scales, though it also gives Christmas tree. It’s a weird looking toy. For me, the aesthetic design direction doesn’t appeal.
On the other hand, it functions well. There’s one button, it’s very easy to find, and it controls all functions. The handle is comfortable and sits nicely in your palm. The shaft has a slight flex to it, not enough to really curve, just enough not to be rigid. It’s on the shorter side, 4.25 inches insertable and 6 inches in total length. It’s 1.25 inches wide at the head and 1.5 inches at the base. The charging port is on the bottom and very hard to find. It’s covered up by self-healing silicone, which keeps the toy waterproof and usually doesn’t hinder charging. However, it took me a while to find the right angle to put the plug in. The owner's manual didn’t help, I had to go to the toy’s product page and watch videos to figure it out.
Experience

The best part of this toy is the texture. I hesitate to call it ribbing because it’s not natural in the slightest. It’s covered in raised bumps that feel incredible when the toy is inside of you. Deep texture like this is super easy to feel. That’s the biggest highlight of this experience. The toy isn’t curved, so it doesn’t target your G-spot effectively. It’s not long, and the handle itself is short. Overall, it isn’t big enough to be comfortable to use. It does flex a little, allowing the toy is curve with your body, but not enough to really make an impact. It’s essentially a straight line. And it has a rigid, pointed head that’s just weird. The more I think about it, the more I realize how gimmicky the toy is despite all of its luxury features. I think rave aesthetic just made this toy fall short.
Quality
The toy’s quality feels superb. It’s coated in body-safe, soft silicone, and every edge and crease is well crafted. It is IPX7 waterproof submersible, meaning it’s completely waterproof. It runs for 90 minutes off a full battery, and takes 2.5 hours to charge. It has a memory chip that allows you to end a session on a particular speed and start right where you left off. It also comes with a security lock to make travel easier. It comes with a 1-year warranty.
Price

Rave Ripple is only $34.99. It’s very inexpensive and seemingly well-made. But, if you’re going to get a sex toy, get one that really does it for you. Not one that tries to be cute, rather than satisfying.
Performance
The Rave Ripple performs fine. It vibrates effectively and has several settings so you can always find the right speed. It leaves a lot to be desired in shape. It does deliver as far as texture goes, but an internal vibrator that doesn’t target your G-spot is pretty underwhelming. It feels like a missed opportunity. Overall, if vibrations are all you’re looking for, this does deliver. Though I still think you can do better.
Materials and care

The toy is waterproof, making it super easy to clean. With warm water and soap, or toy cleaner, scrub thoroughly after use. Ensure all areas around the shaft are clean, it is very easy to miss spots on heavily textured toys. The charging cable is difficult to plug in, I recommend looking at the photo here to see the proper angle.

Plus One Dual Vibrating Arc: Full of Surprises
The Dual Vibrating Arc from Plus One features a simple, sleek design that packs a punch. For once, a ‘personal massager’ that is actually lovely to use on your back and between your legs. The curved design and soft silicone fit comfortably in my hand while providing targeted internal stimulation. With two size options and multiple speeds, the Dual Vibrating Arc is perfect for finding the g-spot and p-spot, making it a gender-inclusive toy. Strong vibrations and ergonomic hold make this an excellent option for clitorial or external play, as well. The toy’s length made playing on my back and stomach easy. However, the toy did let me down a little. The shape of the arch doesn’t allow for simultaneous dual stimulation. While only one side vibrates at a time - already a little disappointing - the vibrations are so strong they made my hand tingle - not a bad thing, but not the most comfortable for longer play.

Confusing Magic: the Ava VIVV Massage Wand
The VIVV Massage Wand by Ava is an adorable, humbly sized vibrating wand with a flexible neck for precision pressure and pleasure. The high-quality, soft, silicone ribbed head adds an unexpected dimension to vibrations. However, the diagonal ribbing on the handle makes finding the buttons difficult and can turn an attempt to adjust intensity or vibration pattern into a lost orgasm. Slightly making up for the confusing texture, the Ava VIVV features 20 vibration patterns and 8 intensities. I say ‘slightly’ because at least 10 of the 20 vibration patterns are redundant. Their slight differences offer the nuance needed for precise pleasure, and taking a few extra minutes to cycle through and find the right one isn’t the worst way to spend your time. The only other hitch in this device is that it resumes whatever intensity and pattern you used before when you turn it on. Sometimes, this is great. Other times, it’s nice to reset and start out easy.

Plus One Vibrating Bullet: Average Travel Size Vibes
The Plus One Vibrating Bullet is a simple, easy to use, travel-size vibe. The no-frills, straightforward design gets the job done. This isn’t the first toy I’d pull out of my drawer, but it’s the backup I like knowing is there. Its size makes it great for partnered play, as it doesn’t get in the way and can easily be moved around. With only one button, getting confused or struggling to change settings is nearly impossible. The 10 vibration settings offer a range of intensities and patterns that are standard for most vibrators. Included in the box is a finger sleeve, which majorly elevates the experience and pleasure of the bullet. Soft, high-quality silicone makes this toy fully waterproof, allowing for shower play. Overall, this is a very average toy. It satisfies but doesn’t over-deliver.

Smooth and Beginner Friendly: Plus One’s Vibrating Wand
The Plus One Vibrating Wand is smooth in every sense of the word. Suave, moderately powerful vibrations radiate from its broad, soft head with a flexible neck, giving you total control of where the vibes go and how much pressure they apply. Overall, I was satisfied with this toy - it doesn’t have the strength of other wands, but the cadence of the vibrations rolls instead of pounds, making this wand more sensual than most vibrators. It has 10 settings varying in intensity and pattern, is cordless, and fully waterproof. The silicone surrounding the toy is soft and feels nice in your hand as you maneuver the wand. It's a great first wand or vibrator, but I wouldn’t recommend it to experienced players looking for a new toy. For my taste, it was a little too simple. However, there really isn’t anything to complain about.

Like a Kitten's Little Red Bullet Vibrator: Compact Cutie 💋
My final verdict on this toy is that it's a smash hit. I would rate this toy a 9/10 because it is absolutely adorable, pussy quaking, and easy to use. I would definitely buy this product again and would love if similar figurines from other story books came to life. This is my formal request @LikeaKitten to make Brothers Grimm inspired toys. Thanks for this fun little bullet vibe nonetheless.

Ava VIVVO Massage Wand: Impatient Need Not Apply
If I wanted to speak Morse Code, I’d buy a Ham radio, not a vibrator. Don’t get me wrong, this is a beautifully designed, high-quality vibrating wand. However, I have a very specific personal issue with this toy. The wand has 20 patterns, and while I appreciate that each pattern is nuanced and probably appeals to users who have been looking for that specific “dot dot dash” vibration, I could have done without 18 of them. For me, the first and eighteenth vibration patterns are the ones I want. And I’d love to be able to start with one, go to the other, and go back and forth until I’m tired. But I can’t do that with the Ava VIVVO Wand because I have to cycle through all the patterns to find the right one. And because they’re all so similar, I easily miss the one I’m looking for and have to cycle through all 20 again. This probably sounds so petty, but when you need that little shift in vibration, you don’t want to click through 17 that are just “meh.” I think this part of the design is bothersome enough to ruin the toy entirely.

CalExotics Charmer Dual Ended Vibrator Review: My Little Snake Charmer! ;P
There's a Snake in my Puss! Don't worry, CalExotics' Charmer doesn't bite, and the only thing lethal about it is the pleasure it provides ;P. This stimulating toy will slither into your pants and charm you with ease with its dual-ended, firmly flexible body and 10 increasing intensity vibrations. Slumber lasts 2.5hrs, play lasts 35-90mins and charging is done with a 3.5mm jack style charger. Though no IPX rating is provided, all literature claims this little rattler is waterproof so be wary of this water snake entering your bath. Another exciting feature is its memory retention so play can be resumed at any point. I've gone from a Gryffindor to a Slytherin in a matter of a toy lol. Not entirely true, Malfoy can stuff it, but this toy can Slyther-in to my Chamber of Secrets any day ;P. The vibes range from beginner to advanced; the ribbed rattle feels nice inside and out; and the flex stays firm in place during all sorts of play. The dual-headed design aspect is a bit conflicting... Though the vibes are equal in both heads, the fact that the power button is on the snake head defeats the dual purpose as now it's no longer operable unless removed, pressed and reinserted and I'm not a fan of that ><". I can see it being disappointing to other users but I'll say the 35 min run time on high is not a disappointment as I can do sensual and/or speedy in under that and roll on with my day lol.

Iroha Stick: Kitschy but Effective
The Iroha Stick has a shocking amount of power and is cleverly designed. But it’s too gimmicky for my taste. Overall, it’s a simple mini bullet vibrator designed to look like lipstick. I don’t think it’s fooling anyone, although if someone found it in my bag, it might take them a moment to realize. The head of the stick is angled like lipstick but has a small fork like a snake's tongue at its end. The angle and fork really elevate the toy as a whole. The Stick packs a punch, it can ramp up quite a bit. I’d say the equivalent of a three or a four on a regular-sized toy. It is battery powered and claims to be waterproof–I’ll get into that later in the review. For what it is, a lipstick vibrator, it’s great. We all have our own kitsch thing that will always get our attention. Lipstick vibrators aren’t mine, so I wouldn’t go out of my way to get this one again. However, it would be a fun gift for a bachelorette party or something similar!

Screaming O, Winny Rechargeable Mini Wand Review
The Screaming O Cuties Winny packs a punch. Tiny vibes are always hit or miss, but Screaming O Cuties hit the mark. They seemingly took a full-size wand and shrunk it down to 3 inches. Complete with 10 vibration options, the Winny is everything you could ask for from a wand, all in a convenient and adorable package. The battery is rechargeable and has a runtime of 120 minutes, which is easily as long, if not longer than, that of most regular-sized toys. I’ve tried several small vibrators and mini wands, but I've never seen such a long battery life, a waterproof rating, and such powerful speed and patterns as the Winny Wand. There are a few small, technical issues with the wand. However, the wand is a satisfying toy overall. As vibrators become more and more commonplace, it’s important to have a functional vibrator that travels easily. Toys like the Winny encourage women’s pleasure, allowing them to bring a vibrator to their partners’ house, on a trip, or to stow in their purse before a big date.
