Showing the packaging of the Precious Metal Jewels The Duchess Rabbit Vibrator

The Precious Metal Jewels The Duchess vibrator is a rotating-shaft rabbit vibrator made by California Exotics. Available in three different colors, this rabbit vibrator is made from TPR material and plastic. It’s powered by three AAA batteries, and it’s completely waterproof. This purple rabbit vibrator features five different functions of rotation as well as five different functions of vibration.

The packaging for The Duchess rabbit vibrator is pretty typical of most California Exotics packaging. It comes in a clear, plastic box that clearly displays the vibrator from all angles. Inside the box, the vibrator sits in a plastic tray. Along with that, there’s a small piece of paper included with The Duchess that gives general instructions about using the vibrator as well as powering it. The packaging is pretty cute, and it’ll look nice for gift-giving. However, it isn’t made of too strong of plastic, so don’t expect it to hold up in the long-term for storage of this rabbit vibrator.

The design of The Duchess is pretty nice, but it looks like thought was put into it. The TPR material throughout the vibrator has some squish to it, but it’s mostly rigid which is good for internal types of stimulation. The clitoral arm will bend to about a perpendicular angle to the vibrator, but it doesn’t go much further than that. Along the shaft of the vibrator, you can clearly see there are quite a few different textures and shapes. There is a particular “bump” near the clitoral arm that stands out quite a bit (about 1/3 of an inch from the rest of the shaft). Along with this, the buttons are near the base of the vibrator, and the very base of this sex toy unscrews to reveal the battery compartment. It’s worth noting that the base of the Duchess vibrator actually has little grooves on it to make the plastic easier to handle with lubricated hands.

The buttons on the shaft of the Precious Metal Jewels The Duchess Rabbit Vibrator

I must admit that I’m not too fond of the material that they chose to use for this vibrator. Maybe I’ve just become spoiled to silicone and plastic, but I don’t think I’m a huge fan of TPR material. The material feels a bit slick, and more like in a “this material feels weird” sort of way. However, if you’re used to using TPR-type toys, I’m pretty sure this one feels about average. Plus, it does have the positive of allowing the toy a see-through appearance which is a neat addition to this vibrator.

The Duchess vibrator uses three AAA batteries for operation. At the base of the vibrator, there’s a compartment lid that just twists off, and then there’s a battery tray that slides out. These three batteries slide right into this tray, and then they’ll happily go back into the vibrator with no issue. Switching out the batteries on this rabbit vibrator is simple, and when you aren’t using the vibrator, it’s easy just to slide out the battery tray to avoid harming the toy with stagnant batteries. So, win-win!

Showing the internal bump on the shaft of the vibrator

To control this vibrator, there are two buttons near the base of the toy. One of these buttons controls the vibrations of the clitoral aspect while the other of these buttons controls the rotations of the shaft. Each one of these aspects can be controlled separately from the other, and in order to turn off each one, you just have to hold down the button as well. The buttons, surprisingly, are actually somewhat difficult to press down. They push down okay, but they take some serious pressure to push down. I’m not sure if, with time, they’re going to become easier to press down or not, but right now, they take a lot more effort than I usually have to put forth in order to press down a button.

The vibrations on the Duchess vibrator are surprisingly powerful for the AAA battery usage. At the same time,though, they’re extremely surface-buzzy, and they don’t really get felt “under” the skin like many rumbly vibration-type vibrators can provide. It also depends on how you like to use your vibrator. If you prefer that fluttering sensation that tends to come with many rabbit vibrators, this one feels even more intense when you purely use the “fluttering”. If you prefer to apply any pressure, though, the vibrations become much more muted. I’d say that the vibrations, though, are definitely moderate, and at least half of the women who use this vibrator will be able to orgasm from the vibrations that the Duchess vibrator provides.

The rotations actually are relatively strong. They produce more “movement” than most types of rotating rabbit vibrators, and along with that, they also tend to stay rotating – even when vaginal muscles contract and get tighter. This is not something that tends to happen with a lot of rabbit vibrators, so it’s definitely a positive. This rabbit vibrator has five different rotation functions which mostly just change the direction that the shaft is rotating – it doesn’t really change the speed of the rotations all that much. The rotations are easily felt when rotating.

This rabbit vibrator has an odd “g arouser” spot on it. This is that odd spot on the top of the shaft that really protrudes. I’m not a huge fan of this. I think this spot’s enjoyability will really depend on your personal anatomy. For example, if you have a shallow g-spot, this spot might end up rubbing it as the shaft rotates. For me, though, with a deeper g-spot, the spot just ends up feeling a bit awkward during use, and I’m not particularly fond of it. Again, though, depending on your g-spot, this addition onto this rabbit vibrator may be exactly what works well for you.

Aside from that “g arouser” spot, I’m still not sure how I feel about the Duchess vibrator. On one hand, it has a strong enough shaft rotation that it actually continues to rotate when most vibrators lock up. On the other hand, it’s made of TPR material, and I really don’t like that. On another hand, I love the design of the shaft (minus the “g arouser” portion), but on the other hand, the clitoral vibrations aren’t strong enough. So, as a whole, this rabbit vibrator isn’t a good fit for me, but I think it isn’t a bad sex toy, and I think it could be a good vibrator for the right person.

Since this pink rabbit vibrator is waterproof, it’s pretty simple to clean. You just have to use warm water and antibacterial soap. Since this is a rabbit vibrator, it would be pretty hard to fully cover it enough for use with multiple partners safely, so you should consider this a one-person vibrator. It’s compatible with both water-based lubricant as well as silicone-based lubricant, so you can choose what you’d prefer to use. As for storage, I recommend keeping it in its own storage bag or at least getting a baggie for it as the TPR material of the vibrator tends to attract a lot of hair and lint.

Overall, the Duchess vibrator is interesting. It’s not a particularly good fit for me, but I can see it being a good fit for other women. It has a unique “g arouser” spot on the shaft, it has a shaft that actually rotates pretty nicely, and it has some strong, albeit buzzy, vibrations in the clitoral portion. Plus, the control system is easy to learn, and the entire toy just looks really pretty. If you think this particular sex toy would be a good fit for you, I think it’s worth checking out. Thanks to California Exotics for providing this pink rabbit vibrator for my Precious Metal Jewels The Duchess vibrator review.

Bon4 Male Chastity Device

The Bon4 is a silicone male chastity device sold by SexShop365. Made of silicone, the Bon4 is different than most male chastity devices because it’s softer and more comfortable for long-term wear. The Bon4 includes two different cages for different sizes of guys, and it includes everything you need to get started with your male chastity straight after receiving this kit.

The Bon4 male chastity device comes in a velvet, drawstring bag clearly marked with “Bon4″ on the outside. Inside this bag, there’s a cotton/linen drawstring bag where everything is kept. If I had to guess, they used the inner cotton bag to avoid getting any of the velvet fuzzies on the silicone of the Bon4. Inside this bag, you’ll find the instruction manual, 5 different back rings, 2 different penis cages, plastic pins to hold things together, a metal key and lock, and a bunch of plastic locks. This includes more-than-enough to be able to use your Bon4 chastity device, and with the extra pieces, it’ll help in case you lose any as well.

The storage bag for the Bon4 Male Chastity Device

For those that have never used a chastity device before, the Bon4 comes with text instructions. I would have liked to have seen some sort of illustrations, but it does have a 4-step instruction page about how to use the Bon4 chastity device as well as some tips and tricks to make things go as comfortably as possible. There are some spelling errors and such, but it does make the task of putting on the Bon4 much more comfortable (which some of the other chastity devices do not have), so I have to give them credit for including it.

The entire Bon4 Chastity set

It’s a bit hard to explain over text, but I’ll try to explain how the Bon4 is put together. First, you’re going to choose one of the back rings that fits your body best. They recommend going with the smallest one that will fit. You then lubricate the device and yourself with water-based lubricant to make for a comfortable fit. You then put in one testicle followed by the other one, and then the penis. Then you put the penis inside the larger penis cage, and attach the cage to the ring. Then you push the lock through the whole in the attachment pin, and the cage is completely locked. Again, the Bon4′s included instructions are more detailed than mine, but you get a good idea of what it takes to put on the Bon4 chastity device.

The inner storage bag for the Bon4 Male Chastity Device

Unlike some of the other chastity devices (such as the CB-4000 and such), the Bon4 is made of silicone. This makes it much, much more comfortable. The base of the chastity device has a ring of plastic around it which makes it more stable and hard to get out of though, so don’t assume that the silicone means that it’s easily escapable because it isn’t. Along with this, the silicone tip has three different holes in it which makes it easier to wear long-term because you’re getting airflow and can use the bathroom while in the chastity device. Because it’s silicone, this also means that it hides underneath clothing a slight bit better because the silicone can conform more easily to clothing to help hide it. Plastic doesn’t conform, and it can make a larger bulge than originally intended because the material has no flexibility or give either.

Showing how flexible the silicone is

In fact, when it comes to the escapability, once the lubricant had dried up, as long as the Bon4 was on properly and tightly, it was very, very, very hard for him to get out of it. We think it might be possible if he ended up in pain trying to do it, but as for “easily escaped”, the Bon4 definitely holds up. Despite the flexible silicone, that doesn’t make it any easier to escape this chastity device.

The only slight downside is that silicone does have some give to it. This means that, if you have someone who is very determined, you can apply some sensation to the penis while in the cage because the silicone will give when pressed firmly. It won’t be nearly enough “give” to allow for masturbation or anything like that, but it will be enough to give a hard squeeze and have it be felt through the cage. Depending on your dynamic, this may be something that you want, or it may be something that you don’t want to give him the chance to do.

I do like the fact that Bon4 also chose to include two different types of locking devices as well. The metal device can be used for regular locking, but if you have someone who’s traveling or if you’ll be gone for a long period of time (and want to allow for an emergency), Bon4 also includes 5 plastic locks. These locks have numbers on them, so you can write down the number and make sure that he didn’t change the lock while you were gone.

Between all of those positive things, I really have to say that the Bon4 is a much better choice than other plastic chastity devices. It might cost a bit more, but the silicone flexibility makes it much more comfortable for long-term wear, and we’ve had a lot fewer issues with skin getting uncomfortably caught where it shouldn’t be. He’s more comfortable wearing the Bon4 than plastic chastity devices because this silicone chastity device doesn’t seem as prominant, and it also isn’t so “weighty” which can cause for some discomfort too.

Another view of the Bon4 Male Chastity Device

To clean this chastity device, you can just use warm water and antibacterial soap. However, as the entire thing is made from silicone, you can also place all of the parts into boiling water in order to sterilize it. Sterilizing it regularly can help keep this sex toy as clean as possible (and it’s pretty easy to do). For long-term wear, the Bon4 is also safe for the shower. If you want to use lubricant, I recommend using water-based lubricant to help get the device on. As for when you aren’t using it, the Bon4 chastity device comes with its own storage bag, so you can easily store it in the bag. Make sure to keep it in a bag of some sort as the silicone tends to pick up hair and fuzzies easily. Along with this, the instructions strongly recommend keeping this chastity device in the original packaging as the clear silicone can absorb colors, so keeping it in the white bag helps it stay looking nice.

Overall, the Bon4 seems like a better chastity device choice than other types of plastic chastity sex toys. It has more breath-ability  and it’s just generally more comfortable to wear. It fastens really nicely, and when put on properly, it’s hard to remove. Bon4 does a great job of including everything you need to use the chastity device as well (including extras), and the silicone is easy to clean and sterilize. I’m impressed, and I’d definitely recommend the Bon4 to anyone seeking a silicone chastity device. Thanks to SexShop365 for providing this male chastity device for my Bon4 review.

Leaf Fresh Vibrator

The Leaf Fresh vibrator is a silicone clitoral vibrator sold by Eden Fantasys. Completely waterproof and completely rechargeable, this small vibrator easily fits into the palm of your hand. It’s about three inches long and about two inches wide. Using the “PowerBullet” technology for the vibrations as well as a storage bag for long-term storage. The Leaf Fresh is part of the “Leaf by Swan” line of environmentally-themed vibrators.

Leaf Fresh Vibrator with the included storage bag

To continue their image of being an environmentally-friendly vibrator, the Leaf Fresh comes packaged in a cardboard box that looks like it might be made of recycled material. As the packaging never states, though, I’m not sure if it is or not. This box is insanely sturdy, though, and it feels a lot more sturdy than most sex toy packaging. You could easily store anything in this, and it would hold up just fine to any abuse you put it through. Inside the packaging, you’ll find the charger for the Leaf vibrator, an instruction manual about your Leaf vibrator, and a storage pouch for your Leaf vibrator. There also is a storage booklet for the instruction manual which, honestly, seems a bit wasteful, but it’s also included.

The control button for the Leaf Fresh Vibrator

The design for the Leaf Fresh, I thought, was a bit cheesy. But then, as you can tell from the paragraph below, I fell in love. The Leaf Fresh was designed to look a bit like a leaf, and it looks exactly like that. It feels like the outer, lime green silicone was stretched around an inner, firm, plastic body (I’m guessing it’s plastic). This means that the Leaf Fresh is completely rigid, and the silicone really is not plushy or squishy at all. This is actually a good thing because vibrations tend to transfer a bit better through firmer surfaces, so the firmer silicone and plastic allow for stronger vibrations. When you want to charge the Leaf Fresh, the charging port is located at the base of the sex toy; you’ll notice it when you examine the body of the Leaf Fresh. Along with that, the single button is located near one of the corners of this green vibrator. This button is actually underneath the surface of the silicone, so it doesn’t get any gunk around it, and that makes it really simple to clean; I love that!

The charging port for the vibrator

So why did I love the design so much? It just surprised me by how much I loved it! I intitially thought the leaf design was going to cause a lot of issues with how to hold the vibrator. It didn’t, though. In fact, I’d argue that this is one of the best and easiest-to-hold clitoral vibrator designs I’ve ever dealt with. The curve along the topside of the vibrator just is absolutely perfect for resting my pointer finger on while the rest of my hand curls around the sides. When held like this, it leaves the “tip” of the vibrator without perfect position to apply pressure to whatever area you want to apply pressure to. Along with this, the button is right along this side, so it only takes a minute movement to go from “holding” the vibrator to touching the control button and strengthening the vibrations. I’ve never accidentally pressed the button while holding it like this either. The only downside is that it tends to vibrate your hand quite a bit as well, but that’s usually to be expected with most clitoral vibrators. I absolutely just LOVE the design of this vibrator!

The packaging for the Leaf Fresh Vibrator

Like mentioned above, the Leaf Fresh is also completely rechargeable. It charges via the wall adapter that is included with the vibrator. There’s a charging port at the base of the vibrator. You just have to slide the charger into the vibrator to start the charging. It might feel like you’re harming the toy, but as long as it’s the charging port, it’s just a little bit firmer than most to get the charger in (since the charging port is waterproof when you’re not charging it). When it charges, it’ll display an LED light, and when it’s done charging, the light will turn off. After it turns off, you just have to unplug the sex toy, and you can get to using it!

The Leaf Fresh is one of those vibrators that’s extremely easy to control. It has a single button on it, and it has the “Press-and-Hold” technology. This means that, if you want the vibrations to get stronger, you just press down the button and hold it. If you are at a vibration setting and want more, you, again, just press down and hold it. If, at any time, you want the vibrations to turn off, it just takes a single press of the button, and the vibrator instantly turns off. This single button is extremely simple to use, and it works really well. It presses down easily, and it has a nice, satisfying “click” when you press it down as well. The button doesn’t lock up, and it never gets accidentally pressed during use, either.

The vibrations on the Leaf Fresh are definitely on the higher end of moderate. In fact, the vibrations are stronger than I thought they’d initially be. Whether they’ll be strong enough for you, though, depends on your previous vibrator preferences. If you tend to use bullet vibrators and use buzzy-type vibrators, the Leaf Fresh may have enough power for you. If you prefer the rumbly-type vibrators, it may not be quite enough. Personally, the vibrations are enough for orgasm, but it’s not one of those “easy” types of orgasms. It does have to be worked at, and I found myself wishing that the Leaf Fresh had some stronger vibration settings.

Something to note about the Leaf Fresh is the fact that it’s going to make your hand a bit numb as well. Since the vibrator is just so small, it means that where you hold the vibrator is probably going to be vibrating as well. This can definitely lead to your hand feeling a bit numb from the vibrations. It’s not a huge deal, and it’s never made a difference during use (as I’m more preoccupied by other things), but it should be noted that it definitely happens, and there’s really not much of a way to avoid it.

I really do like the Leaf Fresh vibrator. The only thing keeping it from being “awesome-est” vibrator ever is the lack of power. It has enough, but in order for me to really love, it just needed to have more. It’s so easy to hold, and it’s so easy to operate, and it feels comfortable and amazing up against the body. It just has this perfect shape. Really, the only thing keeping it from being a near-perfect clitoral vibrator, for me, is just that I need it to have more vibrational strength.

To clean this waterproof, green silicone vibrator, you just have to use warm water and antibacterial soap. If you want to protect it for multiple-person use, you can easily slide this small vibrator into a glove for protection as it’s a bit too odd-shaped for a condom. You’ll still be able to access the control buttons and everything. If you choose to use lubricant with this vibrator, it’ll work best with water-based lubricant. As it’s a silicone material toy, using silicone-based lubricant isn’t recommended. As for storage, I recommend that you store this vibrator in the storage pouch it comes with or in the original packaging.

Overall, the Leaf Fresh vibrator is a good sex toy, and I’d recommend it to most people. It’s only going to be a “stand out” toy if you don’t require too strong of vibrations, but even for most women, it’s still going to be a good and reliable clitoral vibrator. The design is so simple to grasp, and the vibrator is just so easy to use. The rechargability works wonderfully, and the features of this vibrator really are great features that most people will be able to use.

Crave DUET Vibrator with case

The Crave DUET vibrator is a small, USB-rechargeable vibrator. Made from body-safe metal and silicone, the Crave DUET was designed as a luxury vibrator. Along with being waterproof and available in multiple colors, some varieties of the Crave DUET includes a USB storage device right inside the vibrator itself. At slightly over four and a half inches long with a diameter of slightly over an inch, the vibrator is pretty slim, and it easily fits onto the hand.

The new tip on the Crave DUET Vibrator

For those of you that regularly read Kinky World, you might be wondering why I’m reviewing the Crave DUET again as I’ve reviewed it in the past. (Read my Crave DUET vibrator review ). Crave contacted me and let me know that they have changed up the silicone tip to the vibrator after suggestions from users. This is definitely something I love! I love seeing when sex toy companies listen to feedback from users and change their products accordingly. Due to the previous tip being a bit too “clampy” and too “tight” for some (myself included), this new tip is now being offered to all original owners of the Crave DUET to change how you use your vibrator. This new tip has a wider inner gap and softer edges. You can request the Crave DUET tip on their website.

Along with this, Crave changed some aspects of the DUET as well. Along with the tip, there has been an increase in the power of the vibrator as well.

Showing the two halves of the Crave DUET Vibrator

Just like with the previous generation, the Crave DUET charges via USB. The USB port is actually contained INSIDE the vibrator, and the two pieces pull apart to show off the USB inside. This easily plugged into my computer with no problems or issues. The vibrator takes about one and a half hours to fully charge, and on a full charge, it can last up to 2 hours. Along with this, to avoid that annoyance of a vibrator dying mid-use, the Crave DUET pulses at the beginning of every start-up to let you know how much battery life is left in it. So you know if you need to charge it after-use or whatever you want to do.

Controlling this vibrator is pretty similar to how the first generation was controlled. It has three buttons on the base of the vibrator. There’s a + button, a – button, and the pattern/on/off button. The middle pattern button turns the vibrator on and off while the + and – easily change the patterns. Along with that, the Crave DUET includes a new “Turbo” mode. After turning the vibrator up to the strongest setting, you can hold the + button down for three seconds, and the vibrator will get a noticably stronger vibration. This will continue until you press another button on the vibrator. So you could just consider it the strongest vibration setting and use it constantly, or you could just use it as that final push to get to orgasm. It’s definitely noticably stronger than the vibration level before it, though.

The packaging for the Crave DUET Vibrator

The vibrations did get a noticable power adjustment. It definitely is more powerful than the original Crave DUET vibrator. The vibrations still aren’t too intense, but they are definitely more powerful than your standard bullet vibrators. I’d say that they’re pretty “middle of the line”. Not too strong, but they aren’t too weak either. They are very surface-type vibrations, though, so that’s something to keep in mind. Along with that, despite the addition of a stronger motor, the Crave DUET Generation 2 is still very quiet, and it’s even hard to heard the vibrator working while I’m holding it in my hand, so that’s definitely a positive.

How much you’ll enjoy the vibrations really depends on your body as well as what type of vibrations you like. The vibrations on the Crave DUET are more on the surface-buzzy side. They aren’t too rumbly. And the vibrations transfer through the tip relatively well. I DO love the newly-designed tip for the vibrations though. In the previous version, the tip would always be too “clampy”, and because it was so tight, it didn’t really give the tips anyway to ‘vibrate’, so the sensation was always minimal. With the new design, the tips aren’t nearly as clampy, so the two arms of the vibrator have more room to move around, and as such, they provide more noticable vibrations. Compared to the original tip, this is a huge improvement, and it makes the vibrator much more enjoyable to use.

I still can’t orgasm from the vibrations though. I think it’s because I enjoy more rumbly and deep vibrations. Because of that, the surface-buzzing vibrations of the Crave DUET end up feeling too little for me. They work as a tease, and they still feel pretty nice, but they’re not something that would lead to an easy orgasm for me. Depending on your responsiveness to vibrations, though, it could work for you. Really, though, the tip plus the stronger vibrations do make a difference. The tip is much, MUCH better than the previous tip, and I can actually use it in the”clamping” like design that the vibrator was originally designed for. On the previous version, I couldn’t because the vibrator’s arms clamped too much.

My Crave DUET Vibrator is customized. I <3 it.

The Crave DUET is only waterproof when the two halves are pushed firmly together, so keep that in mind. The Crave DUET is supposed to be waterproof up to 100 feet as well, so you can use it in the shower or bath if you want to without any concern. (Or possibly in your pool even! Or…an ocean… 100 feet is a pretty large depth) To clean it, make sure it’s fully assembled and then use a mild soap and water. Because this vibrator is made from silicone, it’s only compatible with water-based lubricants, so keep that in mind. For storage, I definitely recommend keeping it in the leather storage pouch that this vibrator comes with. However, the silicone is extremely slick and smooth, and it doesn’t pick up hair or lint, so you don’t have to be too careful about keeping it covered up.

Overall, the Crave DUET vibrator Generation 2 has made some good changes. The stronger motor definitely makes a difference, and I definitely love the new tip much, much more than the old tip. Crave made some good change with this second generation, and while the vibrations are still a bit too surface-buzzy for me, if you don’t need rumbly-type vibrations or are moderately sensitive to vibrations, the Crave DUET could be strong enough for you. Thanks to Crave for sending me this USB vibrator for my Crave DUET vibrator review.
