UPDATE MAY 2023: This banana vibrating dildo is no longer in production. (While the bullet has died on mine, the dildo looks as good as the day it arrived!) If you’re really into the idea of a banana sex toy, I’d recommend the Oh Oui Banana Silicone Dildo (basically the same toy) or Curved Banana Silicone Dildo By SelfDelve (dildo only with no vibrations) instead.

The Sex A-Peel Vibrator is a banana vibrator. It’s seven inches long with a diameter of about an inch and a half at the widest point. The banana vibrator itself is made from silicone while the included bullet is made from plastic, and the included bullet requires three watch batteries which are included.
The Sex A-Peel banana vibrator comes in pretty basic packaging. It comes in a plastic bag that can easily be torn open to reveal the banana itself. Inside the bag, you’ll have a banana and the bullet vibrator that goes to the banana. There aren’t any instructions included, and as this bag doesn’t really have any decoration or reason to keep it, you may just want to toss it or recycle it after you get your Sex A-Peel vibrator from the bag.
The Sex A-Peel vibrator is more meant as a “gag gift” than anything else. It’s really unique, and it is shaped like a realistic banana. It has the same shape and is the same size as a banana, but it isn’t the correct color that you’d expect or want for a real banana. You won’t mistake it for a real banana when you see it, but if someone sees this banana without the bullet in it, they won’t assume that it’s a sex toy either, so it works to your advantage in both ways.
The Sex A-Peel vibrator comes in two pieces: there is the pure silicone banana itself as well as the bullet vibrator that goes with it. The banana is not hollow, so it does have a bit of weight to it as a chunk of silicone. Inside of the banana, near the top of the “stem”, is a hole that allows you to insert the bullet that comes with the toy. The black bullet slides into the hole easily, and its black color contrast the color scheme of the Sex A-Peel vibrator perfectly. While the vibrator is slipped in, you can easily use the buttons on the bullet vibrator to control the Sex A-Peel’s vibration levels.
The bullet vibrator is a small, standard-sized black bullet. It comes with the batteries that are needed for operation right in the bullet vibrator. The bullet seems to be covered with a type of Velvet Cote-type plastic, so it’s very smooth to the touch. There is a button at the end of the bullet vibrator that can be pressed down to control the vibrations. Before inserting the bullet vibe into the hole of your Sex A-Peel, I recommend putting some lubricant into the hole as the bullet can get stuck in there very easily without it. The Sex A-Peel can be used with any standard-sized bullet vibrators you’d like. It just has to be a standard size (or at least, standard width; it could be a bit longer in length, but it’ll stick out from the Sex A-Peel more than a standard-sized one would). The We-Vibe Tango X, for example, would have an issue fitting in this vibrator.
As the Sex A-Peel vibrator isn’t hollow, the Sex A-Peel doesn’t vibrate much when the bullet is inserted. The bullet vibrator causes some slight vibrations, but don’t expect it to be enough for it to get you to orgasm or to blow you out of this world. The toy really seems to be, foremost, intended as a gag gift, but it does vibrate slightly, so if you enjoy softer vibrations, the Sex A-Peel may end up working for you.
What you may find is that you enjoy the Sex A-Peel vibrator as a dildo. If you view the Sex A-Peel as more of a “vibrating dildo” than a “vibrator”, you may find that you see it in a different light. The end of the banana is a bit pointy for hard thrusting, but the curve of the banana actually works well with your body’s curve, and if you are someone with a shallow g-spot, you may find that the Sex A-Peel banana may hit your g-spot as well.
Cleaning this vibrator is very simple. You just use warm water and antibacterial soap. As the banana vibrator itself is pure silicone, you can take out the bullet and boil the banana to sterilize it. The bullet should be cleaned with regular warm water and soap. You can use water-based lubricant with this set, and as the Sex A-Peel vibrator doesn’t appear to pick up too much lint or fuzzies, you should be able to keep it wherever you want.
Overall, the Sex A-Peel seems to have been meant as a gag gift, and for that, it works wonderfully. If you consider it a vibrating dildo, with its weak vibrations, instead of a vibrator, you’ll also find that it meets your standards better, and for those with a shallower g-spot, you may have a fantastic time with this silicone sex toy. Thanks to Babeland Toys for sending me this discreet vibrator for my Sex A-Peel vibrator review.
