My verdict
The Rave Ripple is really cute, silly, and moderately effective, but it didn’t wow me. The intense texture of the outside of the toy is heavenly. Though it’s a little short and straight for my taste, despite the shaft being flexible. It only has one button, making it delightfully easy to use. And the 10 speeds are great, it’s really nice having more speed options than the traditional 5. It’s super brightly colored. The shaft is neon green, and the handle is neon pink. It fits the “rave” aesthetic, especially with the melting drip-like texture on the outside. It’s fully waterproof, so making sure the space between the ribs is free of debris and bacteria after use is easy. Plus you can have fun with it in the shower or bath. This is one of those toys I think you’d buy more for the aesthetic and kitsch than the efficacy. It would be nice to find a toy that hits both of these criteria successfully, but when it comes to a kitschy, themed toy, it’s just hard to do.
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.

    Dame Arc: The Craziest Experience with G-Spot Stimulation

    This was my first time with a G-spot stimulator like this. It has great maneuverability and intensity. If you want something to quickly get you to that big "O", then you're going to get it with this toy. I'm trying to think of who I wouldn't recommend this toy to, and I can't! I guess if you don't like G-spot stimulation, then look elsewhere. Otherwise, you need to buy this toy, like yesterday.

    Foreplay Flutters

    After giving the PlusOne Fluttering Arouser a solid try, I’d say it’s a fun tease. The standout feature for me was the realistic flicking tongue—it’s definitely unique—and thoughtful design comes in a close second. The varied vibration modes and 'licking patterns' are enjoyable, but some of the modes felt a bit repetitive, leaving me bored instead of locked in. That said, with some patience and effort (especially on the higher settings), it can get the job done—so if you want to put in the extra effort you can get to the finish line. The toy scores points for being quiet, easy to handle, and a breeze to clean and care for. I also love its versatility—it’s waterproof, the controls are straightforward, and the charging setup is refreshingly simple (no finger gymnastics required). However, as a standalone clitoral stimulator or vibrator, it doesn’t quite hit the mark for me. It’s more of a teasing, foreplay kind of toy, which worked well during partnered play and alongside other toys. But as a solo act? It falls a bit short in delivering that ultimate satisfaction.

    UTIMI Angel Review: Look Like an Angel, Play Like a Devil

    Aside from the pearlescent coloring of the hard shell covering of the device, I'm not sure how this device got its name, which means there's no room for puns, but boy do I have a few roast style jokes lol. This product looks and feels like Apple released a new ergonomic but naughty mouse lol. Thanks Steve Jobs xD! If Star Trek had a remote control for the transport device this would be it. Beam my bean up Scotty! Smash Mouth should have said all that shimmer is gold, as this little device makes me feel like I've struck gold! Like an X-rated version of Ariel I have suckers and vibrating dildos galore, but this thingamabob, I've only got the one. In all seriousness though, of all the toys I've reviewed thus far this one really is a standalone product. At first I thought it was going to be a bit cumbersome due to its shape and size but its actually quite ergonomic and versatile. Obviously it's a hand held device, but the shape and size also allows it to slip down between one's legs while sitting for a bit of hands free action. The strength is plentiful, not overly intense like the air pulse power of the INYA Rose, but on par with the strengths the Satsifyer Mission Control is capable of. Definitely a book I should not have judged by its cover as it's pretty handy after all lol.

    Dame Arc: Simple, Powerful & Orgasmic

    Before we get into the review, I just want to preface this with how the Dame Arc blew my mind with how simple it is to use. It literally has an on/off button that doubles as a mode select & speed down button. That's it. We also liked that the default settings are just vibrate and the raised button that increases the intensity is easy to find, and lifts the speed through the 5 levels of rumbly vibrations. We also likes that it doesn't have any of those morse code patterns! Who even uses those anyway!? (no judgement if you do, its just not for us. lol) Onto the toy, it is easy to use and the head is smaller than most g-spot vibrators which she likes as anything bigger can be a bit painful to insert. The Arc is powerful and versatile that has 5 speed settings as well as 5 vibration patterns and as I said already, these 5 patters are actually reasonable and nice. The vibrations are rumbly and surprisingly deep for a toy that is so lightweight, but I I have been noticing this more in toys.

    Swan Rechargeable Bullet Pink – The Little Powerhouse That Stole Our Hearts ❤️

    The Swan Rechargeable Bullet Pink – The Little Toy That Puts Bigger Toys to Shame We’ve tried so many vibrators. Some were good, some were okay, and some… well, let’s just say they ended up in the “never again” pile. But every once in a while, a toy comes along that changes the game and this is one of them. At first glance, the Swan Rechargeable Bullet looks like just another bullet vibe. Cute, compact, travel-friendly. Nothing you haven’t seen before, right? Wrong. The first time we turned it on, we knew it was different. The power. The depth. The ridiculous “how is this thing so strong?” vibrations. And the best part? It never disappoints. Some toys start out strong but weaken over time - this one hasn’t lost a bit of intensity. Some look luxurious but feel cheap - this one is sleek, solid, and gorgeous. Some have a hundred unnecessary settings - this one just gives you pure, uninterrupted, adjustable power. And the battery? It just refuses to die. Even on high settings, it lasts longer than most people can. 😏 We use it constantly. It’s the first thing we reach for solo or together. It’s never in the way, always reliable, and somehow still as exciting as the first time we tried it. If we lost it tomorrow, we’d reorder it instantly. If you’ve been searching for the one bullet vibrator that actually lives up to the hype - this could be it. And if you don’t believe us yet, keep reading - we’ve got all the juicy details. 😉

    Swan Era Review: Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Ooooooooo

    If the Fairy Godmother had given Cinderella the Swan Era Wand she wouldn't have needed to go to the ball! ;P If Hermione Granger found the Swan Era Wand at Ollivanders, she'd be saying Lavios-Aaaaaaaaaaah. xD One more... You could unlock my Chamber of Secrets with an Iiiiiii-want-some-more-aaaaaah spell... Okay okay, bad puns/jokes aside... in all seriousness... I'd highly recommend this product. It's small enough to be an easy travel companion, it's suuuuper powerful, and it'll make you feel magical inside and out!
