I’ve been making friends across the pond. In fact, I hope that it will be a lasting friendship of mutual benefit. I was approached a little while ago by some lovely people at Vibrator.com asking if I would be interested at all in sparing some time to review some of their products. I was a bit hesitant at first, truth be told. Unsure whether I should or could I was assured by the dulcet tones and allure of free sex toys… oh, and a desire to give an honest, realistic and level-headed review to those out there who wander in here from time to time. I’m doing it for you! I can be such an altruist sometimes.

Well, imagine how delighted I was that the company were willing not only to ship over to dear old Blighty, but that their first recommendation was made with a personal view! Ladies and gentlemen (hmm…don’t see too many of those as I peer out…maybe I should leave it as voyeurs and deviants…) may I present to you the Pandora:

Here we have what is billed as a P and G-spot vibrator. Running on three LR44 batteries (y’know, the ones that go in watches), it has itself seven different settings: four main buzzers of varying degrees of bzzz and three pulse settings. When it arrived in the post, it was nicely packaged by manufacturers and doubly so by the distributors at Vibrator.com including some thoughtful sachets of lube. Upon opening, I was greeted by this pretty little sight:

Aw. Very sweet. I was eager to tear into that plastic case. It isn’t as big as it appears, it is approximately 4″ tall and with a rubbery squidgy texture. The body is rather firm and the nodule at the top – intended to aim at the G/P-spots is more flexible. Quiet on switching on, I secreted myself away from Mister. I like to test new toys out alone when first get one, so I can get to grips with how it works and, more importantly, how to make it work for me.

I have to admit, I did warm myself up a little beforehand with my favourite bullet. Just to get in the right frame of mind, you see. I grabbed hold of the Pandora and eased the tip over and around my clit, testing the waters of each individual setting. It wasn’t all that strong – I supposed it is a G-spot vibrator, rather than a clitoral stimulator. Move on.

Getting suitably slippery, I slipped it in and switched it on once more. Now, I don’t know whether I have an unsensitive G-spot but I was slightly disappointed with the immediate results. I could feel it vibrating subtly inside, but I felt nothing against my G-spot at all. I think, for me, the flexible nodule isn’t firm enough for hitting that particular area. Even on the highest buzz setting, it was merely a tingle. Thinking I was just being impatient, wanting my goodies right there right then, I experimented. I turned it around so the nodule faced downwards. Nah. No effect. So I started to thrust it gently in and out, not really savouring the vibrations, but liking the sensation of being, well…for want of a better word, fucked. This was a level better.

Remembering how much I love it when Mister fingers me whilst playing with my clit, I clutched after my bullet, which was laying discarded by my side and attempted something new. With one hand controlling the bullet on my clit and with a pulsing setting on the Pandora, I set about getting a rhythm going in this fashion.

This was gooooood.

Very good. In fact, this was possibly one of the better orgasms I have managed to achieve alone. And I practice a fair amount. The simultaneous thrusting and pulsings of the Pandora were just right enough for my G-spot to react to the orgasm caused by the clitoral attention of the bullet.

I shall be trying it out tonight with Mister, he was most off-put that I closed the door to him.

All in all, the Pandora is disappointingly average as a stand alone G-spot vibrator. The buzzings are just a fraction too subtle for me, so if what you are looking for is something to ease you into G-spot stimulation, then I see no harm in giving it a try. If, however, you are a buzz-fiend then this, sadly, won’t do very much for you. For optimum pleasure, I recommend you place it along with your favourite vibrators and dildos for a good session of You-Time, then this will fit quite happily in to your routine.

Do pop along to Vibrator.com’s site and have a perusal over their other, similarly-themed G-spot vibrators. They have a good selection, which I hope to tell you more about in the near future!
