My verdict

This is such a waste of a toy, and that genuinely disappoints me. You can feel how powerful the vibrations are. It's clearly a strong motor that could provide great stimulation. But the complete lack of vibration isolation ruins the entire experience. I wanted to love this novelty toy. I appreciate creative designs and companies trying new things. But when the execution has such a fundamental flaw that you can't concentrate on your own pleasure because your hand is going numb, the creativity doesn't matter. To be completely honest, I would not use this toy. I can't get past the fact that there's no vibration isolation, and my hands become uncomfortable from the strong vibrations before I can finish. It's frustrating because the power is there, the design is interesting, and the concept is fun, but it's all wasted on poor execution. If you're someone who doesn't mind strong vibrations in your hand, maybe this could work for you. But for me, it's a hard pass. I'd much rather use a toy that lets me focus on pleasure instead of being distracted by hand numbness. The Tropicana Banana is a perfect example of how creative design isn't enough. Functionality and user experience matter more than novelty. Save your money for something you'll actually enjoy using.

Pros

Unique and creative banana-shaped novelty design
Comes with storage pouch
Very powerful vibrations

Cons

NO vibration isolation, your entire hand goes numb
Very loud despite claiming "whisper quiet"
Too short to safely use internally
