This is probably the best vibrating type toy I have ever purchased for my wife. It is made of a sturdy but soft exterior and has nice, smooth edges so no surprise pokes. The toy has a traditional vibration setting as well as a gyrating motion for the portion that is actually inserted. The combination between the gyrations on the inside and the small clitoral stimulator that vibrates is a guaranteed orgasm for my wife every time. The motor seems to be holding up well and it has "gradual" speeds that are truly gradual, so no ridiculous increases in intensity.
