My verdict

It took me five minutes, with instructions in hand, to discover how to ignite the device. Hold for three seconds to turn on, click gently to switch between settings. The lights are subtle, so that’s nice. The power was way more than any of my off-brand Hitachi wands or previous bullet vibrators. It has no bells and whistles. No remote. Not even a handle to relieve some of the intense power from reaching my hands. My skin felt the vibrations without actually touching the device, so playing with the settings and the physical placement allowed a diverse range of sensations. I feel like this toy has three ideal settings: in a sleeve or other holder (and its intense power would allow this and not have its effectiveness dampened), as a toy to tease or torture a partner, or for discretion, something to sneak to work or toss in a suitcase. I lament that these types of vibrating toys never have a way to track what setting you are on, and as far as I can tell, this toy does not. You are left to count and listen to the various noise patterns to determine which settings you are and find your favorites. For solo insertion, this toy seems too small to hold and the completely smooth shape means if you want to dip inside you better have practice with jade eggs and other Kegel-style “exercisers.” The force of the device seems to muddy where the toy impacts sensation more, on the hand or on the target. There is a technique, if you balance the vibrator like a top or a driedel, using only minimal pressure from one finger, that you can enjoy the toy solo without the heavy aftershocks in the hands. The size of this little guy leads me to explore if I can find new uses for it… So while it may not be practical and for immediate needs, it certainly inspires my creativity. With some stores offering this toy at $18 (Walmart), this toy provides more power and enjoyment than expected, I will probably save it for play at an unexpected unexpected place and time, not in the bedroom.

Pros

Soft feel
Clean design
Discreet

Cons

Noisy
Intense vibration can be hard on the hands

Design

This vibrator is small, sleek, and soft. It is very plain and has a variety of appealing colors.

Experience

The intensity of the product was a double-edged sword for solo play as the same power that makes it effect the skin without actually touching only causes feedback into the hands.

Quality

At the price point, it seems very good quality for the price. I have paid more for less in the past.

Price

I saw this product listed at Walmart for $18 and at specialty retailers for as much as $30. I think it packs a powerful punch at that price point.

Performance

This product has more settings and power than I expected.

Packaging

The packaging allowed full view of the product without opening and offered company information, like socials, and basic information about the product itself in a tiny box. The box is efficiently packed and organized and the instructions straightforward.

Special feature

The ease of one-button use was handy once you got used to it.

Charging Port

This was a little confusing-- you literally have to penetrate the power button with the cord to charge. (Photo also shows the instruction card.)

    Something to Lust About: Wonderlust Harmony

    The Wonderlust Harmony is a flexible little number which has a smooth, soft-touch and a curved design that feels great against the skin. The idea of dual stimulation—internal and external— with this toy initially sounded great, but the clit hood on the external arm is a bit too gentle. It's almost unnoticeable vibrations across all 20 modes, which might be a little underwhelming if you're after intense clitoral stimulation. The internal arm on the other hand, does a great job of providing varied stimulation (my boat was pleasantly rocked). The power is nothing to write home about but the mix of buzzy and rumbly vibrations hit the spot. It's also waterproof and incredibly easy to clean, making it low-maintenance and travel-friendly. If you’re someone who enjoys steady pleasure, the Wonderlust is for you.

    Ava FLIQ: Best Bean Fliq-er in Town!

    The Ava Fliq allows you to fliq all of those pesky stresses off your shoulders as it whisks you off your feet! With 10 whisk patterns and 10 bean fliq-ing sensations you're sure to feel like the cream of the crop! ;P If a spa were to provide complimentary stress relievers, I feel this would be in that collection hands down. Of the three Ava products I've received, I'd have say that this one has to be my favorite clitoral stimulator! If you want an action that closely feels like genuine oral sex, this is a good choice! I've gone back to this toy several times in the week or so I've had it because I can't seem to get enough of that little fliq-er xD.

    trying the lovense lush 3: a pleasant surprise

    It's perfect for enjoying a subtle sense of pleasure, especially with the way it hugs my core. While it helps me stay calm, if I'm looking for a more intense experience or to reach orgasm, I find that other toys are better suited for that. Not confident in if it matches as much as they price it as.

    ROMP Hype Review: Lives up to the Hype

    Hype by ROMP is just a fun vibe. It’s your classic G-spot vibrator, slightly elevated without sacrificing pleasure for cheap frills. Its gentle curve, soft tip, and ribbed shaft hit just right, giving you intense G-spot orgasms. As someone who struggles with orgasming from penetration, I was blown away. A G-spot orgasm has never been easier than with ROMP’s Hype. It’s rechargeable and has 6 intensity levels and 4 patterns. Its soft head mimics the feeling of a real penis, increasing the quality of sensation on your G-spot. Plus, it’s fully waterproof. Considering its reasonable price of $40, that’s a steal. Even if you don’t use it in the shower, being waterproof makes the toy so much easier to clean. As I’ve gotten older, I appreciate easy to clean toys more and more. The toy comes with the cutest, sex positive stickers, which I’ll totally be showing off. Finally, it’s a perfect size for me, very comfortable to insert at 8 inches long (6.5 inches insertable) and ~2 inches wide. However, this might be a little small for other users.

    $10 Bullet Vibe from Secret Lover on Amazon

    As a trangender man, vibrators are one of the most important parts of solo and partnered play for me. Bullet vibrators specifically have been a hit or miss in my experience, but this extremely cheap vibrator from the Secret Lover store on Amazon has worked wonders for me. I purchased this vibrator nearly exactly a year ago, and have been using it frequently ever since. It ranks at #5 on Amazon for bullet vibrators, and I can tell you why! My issue with most bullet vibrators is that they don't provide strong enough stimulation- with this vibrator, that hasn't been an issue for me. The angled tip is surprisingly helpful, especially as a trans guy with decently sized bottom growth (~2 inches). Price has also been a struggle for me in regard to toys, with even the smallest bullet vibrators you can find in stores being $20-$30; as a broke college student, it can be a bit difficult to come up with this money! Usually a toy so cheap would be suspicious, but this toy has been just as good if not better than $20 bullet vibrators I've tried in the past. The Amazon listing does say "for women", but this toy is definitely a good idea for anyone. The packaging was discreet, and didn't have any gendering. That's been an issue I've had in the past for most toys designed for AFAB individuals, the packaging is often worded as if it's only for cisgender women, and uses "feminine" color schemes. For trans and queer individuals, this could be a put-off, as dysphoria is a huge turn-off. This wasn't an issue at all with this vibrator!
