So I get this email …basically a pure tease… wanna try this?
It’s a well known fact: Imps are curious by nature. I’m also uber fussy so there’s a couple of things I do before I decide if I want to be a Demo Bunneh. Firstly I look at the price of the toy, call me shallow but these days cost does factor into whether or not it’s going to be a good toy, this wee thing is normally $99.99 and at the moment it’s on special for $75 … nice. Secondly, I look at the sex toy reviews it has, if any are there to be read, this had a plethora of reviews, all 4 and 5 star ratings which seems to be pretty impressive. And lastly I decide whether it’s a toy I would consider purchasing myself. Now there are no remote control bullets I know of that have the range this toy has apart from The Toy which is a fandangled wirelss bluetooth phone activated bullet which costs an arm and a leg so this would be the next best thing to try out.
So yes, I said “bring it on”.
This wireless, remote control egg is the Bliss Egg from California Exotics Couture Collection. The Couture range normally has good reviews and are known to be quality products. However at this point I was still dubious and waiting to be impressed when it was in my clutches. It turned up packaged neatly in a square cardboard box, the egg and it’s charger base ( a cute heart shape) in the top section of the box and the bottom half housed the adapter and the remote. Also included is a detailed pamphlet and an insert with charging information. Spiffy.
One problem. If you live in the Pacific region then you are going to need a stepdown charger to charge the toy. Luckily the adapter comes with an attachment plug so I am able to clip it in and plug it into my transformer. Phew.
Now the actual egg … is huge. I like it. I like girthy toys and this egg measure about 3 inches in length and the width is 1 1/2 inches at it’s widest point. YAY. Nothing worse than a pissy sized bullet. It’s also seamless and is a hard plastic that has a beautiful velvety satin finish. The only thing I am wary about for hygiene/cleaning reasons is the retrieval string is nylon and needs special attention when cleaning. The egg itself sits in the charger base and the base is plugged into a power source to charge …. there is a wee button on the egg you need to hold and press down for four seconds to turn on. Then charge.
The downfall to the whole thing is the remote box which requires an ‘N’ size battery to power it. A battery came with the egg and after the first play with the toy I turned the egg off and left the battery in the remote only to find even after making sure the remote was ‘off’ the battery was dead flat when I went to use it again. Grrrr. This not only happened once but twice and because of the awkward size of the battery I don’t have any extras in the house. I also don’t have rechargable batteries of that size which means an ongoing cost to replace batteries which I don’t like.
Anyhoo, so once I worked out how to charge it, I patiently waited for a little green light to appear on the egg to tell me it was ready to rumble. The on/off button on the egg needs to be set to on, you get a wee green light that blinks about every for seconds which means it’s in standby mode. Then you insert the egg or pop it down the front of your pants, whatever tickles your fancy at the time and you either grab that remote yourself or you give it to some sadistic person who wants to literally tweak your button at their own random will.
When you first turn the remote on it kicks in with a short, sharp buzz then settles into the first mode. The first three modes are a simple vibration, low, medium and high. Then you have four more settings … pulsating, escalating and short, sharp bursts of vibration, so all up you have seven kinds of vibrations to play with. The egg itself is totally waterproof so that means you can have it going while in the bath or shower or swimming. The remote however, is not waterproof so keep that in mind.You can switch this toy off via the remote by simply pushing the on/off button instead of having to cycle through all the vibration patterns like alot of toys these days so this is a definite bonus if it needs to be switched off quickly.
I found it to be a relatively quiet toy when inserted unless it was dead quiet, then you could hear it humming and throbbing away. If you are sitting on a solid wooden chair with no cushioning and it’s quiet you can hear it so be fair warned lol. I also discovered that strategical placement of the string over the clitoral area will carry a slight vibration which is kinda fun too. The remote is small and inconspicuous and will easily hide in ones hand or in a pocket. The remote and the egg have a 16ft range and I tested this out and it works pretty damn well. Even through walls. Heh.
You can use it externally on the clitoral area, insert vaginally and I wasn’t game to try it anally as the string isn’t coated and cleaning would be risky as well as the base not being flared and I don’t trust toys with a just a ‘string’ to retrieve the toy as a safe anal toy. You can use any lubricant with the toy and to clean use a 10% bleach solution, or warm soapy water and/or toy cleaner. I store the egg in a small toy bag I have but you could use the box it came packaged in as a temporary storage box if needed.
So did I like it? Yes and no. It’s an okay toy. Not crap and not fantastical but okay. When it comes to vibrating toys I am a tough cookie to please.
As far as vibrations go, it’s got some pretty good kick and it did have me horny and happy. It didn’t however make me orgasm. I would compare the vibrations in this to a good vibrator but only in a small focused area. It didn’t hit my g-spot and it isn’t a g-spotter toy. I don’t like the fact that the remote part has to use a battery of an odd size which is just downright annoying and for a $100 toy extra costs for batteries is just silly when the rest of the toy was so well thought out. The string on it is dubious, and I am a germ freak so that did bother me, it would be cool to see this part improved also.
If you don’t need powerhouse vibrations then I do recommend this as a fun remote control toy for a couple to have fun with, it does have a few fun ways to use it. There is an extra cost for those who are not in the US or European areas with a required stepdown transformer to charge the base if you don’t have one. It is however a one of cost and I use it for a few toys including the Hitachi and Fairy Wand.
For me it’s a fun toy, a worth playing with on a night out for dinner or a fun secret thing to do with a partner in a public situation but it’s not going to be one I use lots, at least until I go shopping and try and find the right sized battery for the bloody remote. Bah!
Cheers Eden Fantasys for teasing me senseless yet again!!
