Aphrodite Vibrator by Laura Berman

About the Product:

I received this vibrator a little while ago and have played with it a couple of times.  It is a hand-held, rechargeable vibrator that comes with three different “heads” and has 2 different speeds, with the lowest setting having infrared heat added to it.  The speeds are high and low, and the heat is either on during the low speed or off during the high speed.  The three “heads” are soft gel types, with the shapes of “pin point” which has a round tip, smooth, and “nubby” which has small rounded nubs all over the head.  These can be changed with a simple snap onto the massage head.

Noise Level:

This is noisy!  Although with the doors closed and it set to high, I could barely hear it buzzing on the outside of the bedroom.  I still would feel super self conscious about using it while the kids were awake in the house.  Maybe with other noises going on around it might be even less noticeable.  However, it is definitely loud enough to wake someone up in the same room!  So no playing with it while hubby is asleep!  hehe

Vibration Level:

The speeds say “Low” and “High”, but they should say “High” and “Slightly Higher”.  There really aren’t two separate speeds on this thing.  However, the speed of the vibration is pretty good.  I would have liked it more if it had more various speed controls and if the heat was separate as well.  The way it is set up, the heat is only on if it’s on “Low”.

My Opinion:

Overall, I’d say that this was an “ok” toy.  Not my favorite and maybe not one I’d use often.  There’s very little control on the variation of speed and the heat was almost non existent.  Without being able to really control the variations of speed or the heat, this is a little bit disappointing.  If you just want clitoral stimulation then this does have a good speed for that and it’s easy to use one handed.  But if you’re wanting more than just a simple “rubbing”, then this is not really a toy I would see using often.

On top of the lack of speed control, the attachment “heads” seem odd to me.  The one with all the nubs on it was too hard and uncomfortable.  It didn’t really add to the sensations.  The “pin point” head wasn’t bad, not really for more than clitoral stimulation though.  The “smooth” head seemed pointless though, and I couldn’t figure out why it was there.  I was a bit disappointed in these attachments.  I think that they should have a wider variety of “heads” that you could use for a “deeper” massage.

Recommendations:

Who would I recommend this vibrator too?  Well, If your not looking for anything too “deep” of a massage and you don’t need a lot of control over the speed, then I’d say this vibrator might fit you perfectly.  However, if you like more control over speed & heat, and would like something that goes a little further… then I’d say this was not the best vibrator for you to buy.

My rating: 2.5 stars
