I should start out by saying that my experience with vibrating sex toys has been mixed, leaning toward poor. Mostly poor, but since I like the idea and have had a good experience or two with them in the past, I wanted to try again. So I chose the seven function, waterproof, remote egg.
It has its pros and cons, but overall I like it and I will continue to use it.
Normally vibrating toys are over-stimulating and uncomfortable to me. One reason an egg sounded appealing was that it would be completely on the inside. I must be unusually sensitive because when I hear other women raving about using high powered vibrators on their clits it makes me cringe. Sometimes I can’t tolerate having my clit touched at all, but deep inside is very, very good.
This is the second egg I have tried. The first one was very cheap, which made sense at the time. I didn’t know if I would like using an egg so why invest a lot of money in one. That was a mistake. The first egg that I tried was awful. It was painful. I think it has a short or something, because I am pretty sure it was shocking me. It was not a remote egg and I found the cord very irritating. Overall, I hated it!
So, back to this new egg. The seven function egg is pretty pricey as eggs go, but worth it. The difference in quality was dramatic. The texture is nice; kind of silky. It produced no unpleasant sensations. I didn’t feel like I was being electrocuted. So that was all a good start. It is fairly small, and that works out well for me, too.
The first time I tried it was New Year’s Eve. Since I’m normally so sensitive, I was surprised to find that I could barely feel it. I tried all the settings anyway, just to check it out, and discovered that one setting felt like bubbles rising up in my belly, much like having your stomach growl when you are very, very hungry. That was amusing, but I had obviously had too much wine to really appreciate the egg so decided to try again another time.
The second try, wasn’t the right night for it either, for other reasons. The third time I tried it I loved it! I decided to try it as a bit of a warm up before heading to the bedroom. It felt very nice, stimulating, but not irritating. The size was comfortable. My body was starting to relax. It was really great. And then the batteries died!
The batteries dying was my own fault, but also my one complaint about the egg. It comes with two sets of batteries and the instructions clearly state that you must remove them when it is not in use. I failed to do that, and I can tell you that it is absolutely necessary. It doesn’t use the regular batteries you would have around the house. It uses two different kinds – a little one for the remote and six that look like watch batteries for the egg itself. My problem with having to remove the batteries when I’m not using it is that inserting them is a bit tedious and wipes out any spontaneity. So, I suggest always keeping some spares on hand.
