5.0 out of 5 stars
Wife enjoys it, June 30, 2009
I bought this for my wife. Over the years we have tried various types of vibrators, but usually ended up with the "bullet" style. Then we had mostly stop using vibrators all together.
Years ago we had tried the "rocket" type. These we the inexpensive rocket shaped, white hard plastic. My wife never particularly liked those, as she found the straight shape and rigidity unappealing, which is how we ended up with the bullet type exclusively.
Recently, maybe due to hormone changes, or just other improvements in her life, she got interested again in vibrators. Going back to habit, she ordered a bullet. A change from our previous experience, she enjoyed more penetration, which was not easily accomplished with the bullet type. Additionally, the bullet she ordered was an inexpensive "Made in China" model. With all the recent concerns about the safety of Chinese products, I wondered if what we had was of medical grade plastics. Also the paint (it was silver coloured) was fading, leaving me with concerns about lead based paints.
So with all these issues, I looked for a replacement. I found the Lelo brand, and in reading found the specifically talked about the quality of the plastics used. The shape of the Elise appeared more appealing than what we had previously experienced with the "rockets".
When I received the unit, I immediately charged it, with plans for an enjoyable evening. When the mood was right, I got out the vibrator, and turned it on. Hearing the sound, my wife was expecting the old reliable bullet. But when I first made contact, she knew something was different. On investigating, she was at first reluctant, saying that she had never liked that style. I explained my reasons for the change, and she appreciated my concerns. We then went on experimenting, and found how it worked, and what she enjoyed. She ended up really enjoying, with a few uncomfortable moments learning the right angles an movements.
The multiple modes (vibration, slow pulse, and fast pulse) are interesting. We haven't quite figured out yet what she enjoys best and when, but look forward to more experimentation to find out.
