rechargeable

Many of the best vibrators are rechargeable. As in, they come with a cord you plug into the wall. Companies that make rechargeables include LELO, Fun Factory, Je Joue, Jimmyjane, and We-Vibe.

Review: Stronic Eins

04.24.13

There’s been a lot of pomp and hype surrounding the Fun Factory Stronic line: an alleged 18 months of development, a YouTube trailer filled with innuendo and no actual facts, a video of people racing the toys across a table, and a side-eye-inducing claim that 87% of women prefer them over vibrators. Listen, bub, you’re not gonna usurp [...]

Review: Mia 2 and Adore Me Pleasure Set

02.04.13
LELO Mia 2 in the Adore Me Pleasure Set

The LELO Mia and I go way back. Almost to the beginning of this blog. A lot of things have changed since then — for instance, I am now a hardcore Google Chrome fan, and the clunky Compaq laptop pictured in my original Mia review has been replaced by a sleek white Sony Vaio1. With [...]

Hell Yes: Stronic Eins

11.14.12
Fun Factory Pulsator Stronic One

[Update: I reviewed it!] I like thrusting, if you haven’t noticed, so I am drawn to this new majig from Fun Factory. The Stronic Eins, or Stronic One, is the first in a series of three toys in the “Pulsator” family. It has 10 different rhythms, ranging from long and slow to short and rapid. Awkwardly, the [...]

Review: Mona 2

11.12.12
LELO Mona 2

It’s kind of ridiculous how much I like my LELO Mona 2. Fuck it, love. It just feels weird to say that because the Mona is such a simple toy. It’s not a revolutionary shape, and in fact, it’s been around for some time and I’ve all but ignored it. So it is sort of [...]

Review: Ola

Minna Ola

[The Minna Ola is on sale for 20% off on SheVibe, now through March 5th!] The Minna Ola has been in my sights since early 2010, which makes me feel old. But it did take a year and a half for it to hit the shelves of actual stores, and by then my initial intrigue had deflated a bit. [...]

Review: Big Boss

08.16.12
Fun Factory Big Boss and matching cat

The Fun Factory Big Boss is seriously orange. Across the room, day-glo, Manic Panic, atomic, toxic waste orange. Of course, that was a big reason I wanted it. I love that Fun Factory d-d-d-does have the guts to make their toys in off-beat, unpopular colors. But it was the combination of the orange + the girth + [...]

Sex toy storage: chargers and lube edition

07.19.12
All finished and all awesome.

Rechargeable sex toys can free people from the burden of clunky batteries, but there’s one side effect that kinda sucks: wrangling all the charging cords. I have never had a good system for this. My sex toys themselves are nicely tucked away in their plastic storage chests and dedicated boxes, but I let my charging cords [...]

Review: Life

05.10.12
Leaf Life, just chillin' with the soaps

The Leaf Life looks like something you’d pick up along a nature trail. Colored a cheery green and shaped like a fat leaf or a pointy slug, the Life comes from a line of vibes inspired by nature that I found too intriguing to ignore. And I’m glad I tried one (the right one, perhaps), because… I [...]
