My verdict
Pros
- Ribbing/texture is out of this world
- Simple controls
- 10 speeds with incredible strength
- 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.

Our Erotic Journey Zodiac Mini Vibe Review
The Cancer Mini Vibe, and the whole Zodiac Collection from Our Erotic Journey, is an absolute vibe. You’re supposed to order the toy that aligns with your zodiac sign. Each is different, palm-sized, and based on the symbol of that zodiac. My verdict as a sex toy: it’s cute, and I felt adorable using it. Overall, it’s a really fun alternative to your standard bullet vibrator, but it is basically just a cute bullet vibrator. The toy has 10 vibration modes, is around 2.5” wide, and is shaped like a little cartoon crab. My verdict on the toy’s vibe: brilliant! The box is designed to look like a tarot card deck, and included with the toy is a crisply designed card describing your zodiac’s sexual style and compatibility. The packaging of this toy and its presentation made me enjoy it more. Because it has such a vibe, it stands out. The legs and eyes of the crab add dimension to the toy, making it much more interesting than similar vibrators.

Doc Johnson White Nights Bullet Vibrator Review: My White (K)Night in a Luxurious Velvet Finish!
I'm not sure if I'm slow to the game and it was their actual intention with the name, but I could see a reason why this toy would be called "White Nights"... it could even be called "White Sheets" lol as if they weren't white at the start, they will be at the end. Doc Johnson's White Nights is a bullet with a power that's easy for beginners to handle but a maximum intensity that may still satisfy more experienced users. It's a battery operated bullet that runs on two AA batteries (NOT included). Like the Gaia Eco it's a dial operated toy with increasing intensities, simply turn the clear dial at the base of the toy all the way left to turn the toy off, or rotate anywhere from 0º to 115º to the right to adjust the intensity. No pouch is included in the packaging, but thanks to the material it can stay relatively clean where ever it's stored. No actual IPX rating is provided, the site claims waterproof while the box claims water resistant, so please use with caution if desiring a shower or bath with this item. The overall length is 7", the insertable length is 6", and the width is 1" making it a good size for beginners and a decent one for experienced users. Compared to the Gaia Eco I like this one more because of the material feel, the intensity and the easy to identify dial. In regards to the SugarBoo, I prefer the size and single adjustable intensity of the White Nights, but the overall intensity and button operation of the SugarBoo. This is a bullet I would consider going back to on its own and potentially with another toy or two swapping this for penetration or clitoral use only depending on the other toy.

Iroha Koharu Beni: Cute but Boring
The Iroha Koharu Beni is nothing special. It’s your average battery powered vibrator. There’s nothing about it that stands out to me as noteworthy. It’s decently powerful, which is always nice. The shape is interesting, I haven’t seen something exactly like it before. But that’s the problem, really. I’ve seen a lot of vibrators similar to this, some of which stood out for their design, comfort, or quality, but the Koharu Beni is just okay. It’s one saving grace is it’s flexible head, though it isn’t as elastic as a flexible head should be. It’ll get the job done, but when you’re looking for a vibrator, you want to get something indulgent and luxurious. You want freshly baked sourdough that crunches on the outside and is soft on the inside. You don’t want store brand white bread. This baby pink, battery-powered stick vibrator is the store brand white bread of vibrators.

Funzze Super Powerful Massager: The Buzz-Worthy Truth
The Funzze Super Powerful Massager is a great addition to any toy collection, fully equipped with 8 speeds and 20 vibration modes, this vibe will rock your world. What I appreciated about this massager was I could use it all over my body, which is not something that is applicable for all sex toys. I started my exploration by using the massager on my clit, but the vibrations were pretty powerful so I opted for putting a thin towel between my clit and the massager for more gentle vibrations to the area. After I got warmed up, I was able to forgo the towel, and use the massager directly on my clit. The vibrations were strong, and I was able to orgasm quickly, which was surprising because the toys in my collection usually take me 10-40 minutes to reach my climax. I am still learning the speeds and intensities that are best for my body, but I can say I really enjoyed the Funzze massager.

plusOne Dual Vibrating Massager: Intense Vibrations at an Affordable Price
The plusOne Dual Vibrating Massager packs a lot of power for its price. My partner originally purchased it before we got together, and while it’s not a match for my rumbly preferences, I can see why it’s a favorite. The flexible design, waterproof build, and dual motors make it versatile, but the intensely buzzy vibrations turned me off. But it’s a solid choice for anyone seeking intense sensations on a budget.

Pipedream Fantasy For Her Duo Wand: Never Been so Disappointed!
It’s one thing to send a broken toy. But, to send a broken wand, with stains on the head and half of a button missing? What a shame. The Fantasy for Her Duo Wand looked like an interesting take on a wand. It has a curved head and is a comfortable size, not too big, not too small, but Pipedream lost a customer. I’ve gotten broken toys before. Years ago, I ordered a new Liberty 2 from Womanizer. I was so excited, the pandemic had closed down my job, leaving me at home to masturbate uninterrupted. Except, when the Liberty arrived, it didn’t work, no matter how long it charged nothing happened. I immediately reached out to Womanizer, and they replaced the toy, no questions asked, and I got a working toy in the end. It’s super normal, though still uncommon, for a toy to show up and not work. Most companies are great about replacing them. Had the Duo Wand just been broken, I would’ve gladly ordered another one. But alas, it showed up in its sealed plastic with stains on the head. I can’t imagine it had been used; that would truly cross so many lines. A toy should always arrive in its best condition, but there was chipping on the metal band around the handle, one button’s decal was smudged, and there were stains. Considering everything that was wrong with this toy, I don’t recommend trying toys from Pipedream.

DOXY Die Cast R Review: To die for!
Oh. My. God. 😮💨 This thing is powerful. You're working with a big wand, so you're going to get big power. Not to say that this toy is perfect, but it's definitely one of my favorites. If you get this toy, you're definitely going to have a fun time. The toy excels at just hammering away at you. It's a great bit of fun that I don't get tired of. I would say that its only weaknesses are in its design, but the pros far outweigh the cons. This is definitely one of the best wands (and sex toys) that I currently own.
