So I have a handful of different types of vibrators but only one of them I actually liked and could get off with. That is until I got this amazing thing. It is powerful but not jarring if that makes sense. The vibration is very smooth unlike the rose and pin point toys I have. On the first setting which is the lowest, I didnt even need direct contact to orgasm and it took less than ten seconds the first time I tried it. It feels good to hold in your hand(soft and has a good weight to it) and the ribbed texture is the cherry on top. I bought the medium size. It is a bit louder than some of my other toys but not by much, the fan in my room on high drowns out the sound just fine. Considering that you can feel how powerful the motor is in this thing when you turn it on and off I would consider it pretty quiet. The magnetic charger also locks in place way better than other toys i have so you don't have to baby sit it while it's charging. And the instructions say on a ³full charge it lasts an hour which I believe because I fully charged it before using and it didn't die on me in the about 40 minutes I was using it. Even if this thing craps out after a few months of regular use I will most definitely be repurchasing, that's how impressed I am with it for the price. Honestly for less than 20$ you really can't go wrong. I can't wait to try this out with my man. The vibrations go through that whole region of your body so if I use it with him I know he'll be able to feel it too. Go run and buy this thing!
