Awhile back I was sent out several items from Maiatoys in that shipment the Twistty Wired Control Mini Dil was inside. I received Pink (Marcia) & Blue (Astral), I passed the Pink Mini Dil on to my cousin as I didn't need 2 of the same toy. I love when a company makes toys in more then just the traditional pink and purple that you usually see. I know the color of the shouldn't really matter but having an array of colors or well a rainbow of penises it can be more fun! The Twistty Mini Dil is more of a vibrator then a dildo as most refer to dildos as a non vibrating toy. The Twistty Mini Dil is geared more towards those who are female bodied but men can also get pleasure from this Twistty Mini Dil since it has flared base. You can use the Twistty Mini Dil for vaginal or anal penetration. If you don't like vibrations you can use the Twistty Mini Dil without it, I will explain more of that later on in the Functions section. The Twistty Mini Dil can be used by beginners since it isn't too intimidating and not all that big. If you are a size queen you will be disappointed for sure. The Twistty Mini Dil measures in at 5.5 inches long and 4 3/4 inches insertable length. The girth measures in at 1 3/8 inches. Want to learn more about the Twistty Mini Dil? See if it is a good fit for your needs?

The LED Mini Bullet is manufactured by the folks over at Maia Toys and it is available in all four colors: yellow, pink, blue and purple or if you go by what Maia calls them it would be Confetti, Astral, Marcia and Porpora. The LED Mini Bullet is made out of ABS plastic and is great for beginners coming into the toy world. In no way at all is this intimidating to even those new to toys. I would say that the LED Mini Bullet is a great introductory toy especially for trying to get your partner on the toy bandwagon. The LED Mini Bullet can be used in many ways but know that it is in NO way safe for anal pleasure. You can stimulate the clitoris, nipples, penis shaft even the testicles can enjoy the vibrations from this vibe. There is a small point at the tip that would be good for pin pointing where you want your vibrations to go. It is only 3.5 inches long with a girth of less then 2cm. This little bullet is small enough to take anywhere with you, slip it in a pocket, purse or overnight bag. Material The LED Mini Bullet is made out of ABS Plastic, meaning that it is nonporous, hypoallergenic, latex and phathalates free. While plastic is nonporous it can't be sterilized for safe sharing. If you aren't fluid bonded with whom ever you are wanting to share this with I would recommend using a condom over it. Yes I know sounds like a huge overkill but it will keep from spreading bacterial and things of that nature. Plastic is a hard material that has no give to it and is usually smooth to the touch. The LED Mini Bullet doesn't really have an texture to it, there are indentations on the sides that are kind of in an oval shape. I believe the indentations are there to make it easier to hold the bullet but it won't provide any stimulation. Controls & Functions When it comes to the controls and functions of the LED Mini Bullet are pretty simple. Being powered by 1AAA battery I would say that it has pretty decent vibrations to it. The vibrations don't produce much noise but if you are worried someone will hear make sure to have background noise. I know I usually have on a fan or two as well as my radio or T.V. going. There is a plastic insert in the battery compartment don't remove that as it is there to make the toy quieter then it would be without it. The plastic tube helps to keep the battery from rattling. There is one simple button on the bottom of the LED Mini Bullet that controls all of the functions. To turn it on you will simply just push it in and keep pushing it til you get to the vibration setting you want. To power it off you can either hold the button down for 3 seconds or scroll through all the patterns til it powers off. Some toys have memory in them to remember the last setting you used this bullet does not, you will have to scroll through the patterns til you get back to the one you were on. The button on the bottom glows white and flashes on the pulsation modes of the bullet. The vibration setting son the LED Mini Bullet are as follows 1.)Steady Low Vibrations 2.)Steady Medium Vibrations 3.)Steady High Vibrations 4.)Pulsation, Escalation to Steady Vibration 5.)Fast Pulse 6.)Fast Short Pulse 7.)Steady, Pulse, Steady On a 1-5 scale with 5 being the highest and 1 being the lowest I would say that the vibrations in the LED Mini Bullet are around a 3.5-4 on the highest setting. I will say though that if you like rumbly vibrations you will be disappointed when it comes to this little baby. The LED Mini Bullet has very buzzy vibrations that could easily turn into numbing vibrations. If you like playing in the shower or your pool you can take the LED Mini Bullet with you, it is waterproof. Make sure though before submerging into water that the O-Ring is in place and the battery cap is on tight and secure so no water can seep in. Packaging I love the detailed and awesome package of all the Maia Toys! Very tasteful and classy packaging is what you will find here. As pictured in the opening photo you see that there is a peek-a-boo window which I like for toys packaging to have it hides it when you want it hidden an shows the item when you want it shown. There is a small piece of velcro that holds the flap to the peek-a-boo window closed. On the front you will find Maia's logo in silver with their statement "The Colors of Erotica" embossed on the front. On either side you will find an embossed picture of the LED Mini Bullet and they are done in a tasteful way. It does state on the box itself that the bullet is 3.5 inches. The description given by Maia is: "A strong mini bullet with LED light switch and chrome finish makes it easy to use anytime anywhere. They unique contour on the body will enhance your level of enjoyment. This vibe is a perfect handbag vibe that no lady should be without." When you open the box you will find the LED Mini Bullet laying in a plastic shell, underneath there you will find a custom storage pouch, the Color Therapy Guide and Instructions/Warranty information. That is right the Maia Toys has a warranty on their items, it is a limited warranty but hey a limited warranty is better then NO warranty at all. Just make sure that you fill out the warranty registration just as soon as you get your toys in the mail. You have 10 days from the time of purchase to fill out the warranty information. The Color Therapy Guide shows the different colors as well as the associations that go with the color along with the toys offered in that color. When it comes to the user manual are pretty generic an show more then one toy as it is the same manual that comes with all toys. It provides you will all the information one would need. If you plan to dispose of the packaging and use just the storage pouch instead of just tossing it in the trash, toss it in the recycling bin. Since it is all cardboard, paper and plastic it can be recycled! Perfect for gift giving and semi discreet. I think it would stand up to being used as storage as well if you really wanted to. I do recommend keeping the packaging for up to 90 days if you register for warranty purposes. Caring/Storage Being made of plastic and waterproof makes it easy to care for the LED Mini Bullet. Make sure that you clean your toys before and after each use to assure good toy safety. Since this is plastic it can't fully be sterilized. There are a few ways you can wash it though: 1.)Antibacterial Toy Cleaner-Spray down and wipe clean 2.)Antibacterial Soap & Water-Make sure to rinse thoroughly after cleaning using soap and hot water. 3.)Alcohol-You can use rubbing alcohol to wipe down the bullet 4.)Toy Wipes/Baby Wipes-Being tiny and easy to clean wipes could be the way to go as well. Plastic toys are compatible with water, silicone or oil based lubricants if you were to need a lube. My Experience When it comes to my experience with this one it wasn't all that grand sadly, I guess I have gotten spoiled with other clit toys. While this has multiple speeds it has very buzzy vibrations that my clit didn't like at all. I tried using the LED Mini Bullet solo as well as with another toy. Honestly I just couldn't get off on the vibrations provided. I am not saying its a horrible toy it just didn't work with my needs. Great for beginners who are trying to find out what type of vibrations they are needing. Even though this didn't work for me doesn't mean it won't work out for you, everybody likes different kinds of vibrations. The LED Mini Bullet is small enough to travel with as well, you could just toss it in your purse an head out on your trip with no worries. I didn't test out the waterproof feature on this bullet since my last testing on a Maia Toy didn't pass the waterproof test. I don't want to ruin toys, even if they aren't a fave of mine. Do you want to get updates from Maia Toys? Follow them on Twitter Like them on Facebook I reached out to the folks over at Maia Toys about reviewing some of their products. The last I had heard they only wanted contact information and that was it nothing was added about product being on the way. I was oober excited when I came home after a rough day and found a BIG box on my bed! This box weighed in at 5 pound Holy Sex Toys!! I love that all their toys are made of medical grade silicone, well the insertable parts. A thing I found really neat is that they claim themselves as "The Colors of Erotica" and their toys are based on Color Therapy!! Confetti Yellow:Warmth, Sunshine, Cheer, Happiness These are known things that the bright color of yellow can bring. The toys offered in this color are: Astral Blue:Trust, Reliability, Belonging, Coolness These are a few things that the color blue represent or bring. The following toys are available in the Astral Collection: Porpora Purple:Royal, Spirituality, Dignity Are associated with the color purple and these toys are available for this mood sense Marcia Pink:Soft, Sweet, Nurture, Security All those come to mind when you think Pink! Toys offered in the Marcia/Pink are: As you can see not every item is offered in every color!! There are some items that are offered in only one color as well which I think is pretty neat. I did find on the site a few things I want to try that didn't come in the box of goodies that I received and that would be the Wicked Butterfly Wireless and the Marcia Sensor Balls. This two look pretty neat :) Maybe I will get them one day. You can find Maia Toys on several different adult online stores. I originally came across them on Eden but they were never stocked. The Silicone Mini Rabbit come to us from Maia Toys, it comes in 2 colors Purple (Porpora) and Pink (Marcia). These colors are apart of their "color therapy" collection. I was sent one in each color an I will be gifting one to my cousin ;) Who doesn't like toys right?! The Silicone Mini Rabbit is designed and geared towards more of those who are female bodied but if you are male bodied and want some anal action from this rabbit you can have it as well. No reason everybody can't have a little bunny love right?! The Mini Rabbit is designed to be used vaginally while stimulating the clitoris however, if you wanted to get some anal action you can! While there is no flared base there is the clitoral attachment that will keep this vibe from being sucked into anal cavity. Female bodied if you want to get anal action going you can use the clitoral attachment to stimulate your perineum. When it comes to males they can do just about the same they can insert the shaft while using the clitoral attachment to stimulate their testicles or their perineum. With the way the head is shaped it could possibly stimulate your G-Spot (ladies) or P-Spot (gentlemen). Being 9 inches long with a 6 inch long insertable shaft this baby is in no way discreet. The clitoral attachment is around 4 inches long. The girth of the shaft is around 1.25 inches so this would be a good size for beginner and even experienced toy users who prefer something on the thinner side of things. On the back of the shaft on the control panel is the Maia logo. Material The Silicone Mini Rabbit is made out of *gasp* you guessed it silicone! On the Maia website it states that it is made of medical grade silicone, the control panel is made out of ABS plastic with a PU coating so what does all this mean? Being silicone it means that the insertable toy can be sterilized* I will explain that in the caring section on how to sterilize them. If you plan to share your toys between yourself and your partner or even between your very own orifices you will want to either use a condom or sterilize them. Silicone is a nonporous material meaning that your bodily fluids will NOT be absorbed into the material. Silicone is also latex free, phathalates free and hypoallergenic which means pretty much that they are safe to be used in and on the body an shouldn't cause you any type of rash or allergic reaction. The silicone used on the Mini Rabbit is velvety feeling and is super smooth. A lot of silicone toys can have a drag an this can be taken care of by using a personal lubricant*. I didn't really find much drag with this particular silicone used. There are visible seams on the shaft, I can feel them with my hands but couldn't feel them while Thumper was doing his internal thing. If you long for textured toys you will be disappointed here since there is no texture. The tip of the shaft is a bit flexible and has a little bit of give to it so it is not a hard solid silicone. The clitoral attachment is pretty flexible too, you can't bend it super crazy but it moves enough to help with positioning. I found that the rabbit ears are pretty flexible and a little squishy as well. ABS Plastic with a PU coating means that the control panel is made out of plastic, this is a nonporous material an won't soak in your bodily fluids. Of course since it is made of plastic it is hard! There is some texture on the control panel but nothing that will help aid in pleasure for you. Controls & Functions Where do I start with the bells and whistles on this one?! Well not really bells and whistles as this rabbit is pretty quiet. I love that the Mini Rabbit not only vibrates but it ROTATES! This little bunny is powered by 3AAA batteries! The Mini Rabbit has pretty easy to use controls, there are 5 buttons that come into play on this one. -UP arrow turns on your rotation, you can push that 3 times to get to the 3 speeds of rotation. -DOWN arrow scrolls back down through the rotation speeds as well as on the 4th click turns off rotation. Right in the middle there is a button that says -R/S this button is to control which direction the shaft with go in push it an it will go the opposite direction as it was going. The rotation is not by any means super fast you won't whip your insides up like a milkshake by any means at all. They are powerful enough to feel though. When you power on the shaft rotation you will see a blue light on the control pad indicating that you have on the rotation function of your Mini Rabbit. Upon turning on the vibration function of the clitoral attachment a red light will come on both lights will be on if you are using both functions at the same time. -(+) button turns on your clitoral attachment, with each time you push it, it will go through the 3 speeds of vibration followed by the 4 vibration patterns. -(-) button powers off or scrolls backwards through the settings. Vibration Patterns -Steady Low Vibrations -Steady Medium Vibrations -Steady High Vibrations -Escalating Low to High -Fast Short Pulsation -Fast Long Pulsation -Short Pulsation to Steady Vibration One thing I found was that there is no "emergency shut off" so to speak, if you must turn off your Mini Rabbit in a hurry you will still have to scroll through all patterns just to turn it off. There is also no memory setting on this toy to me that isn't a big deal but others may think it is. To power this baby you must use 3AAA (not included) which you will need to insert into the battery cradle (white piece) this slides into the battery compartment an holds your batteries. Slide that into the shaft an screw the battery cap back on tightly. Make sure your O-Ring is in place and the cap is on right an tight for water play. The Mini Rabbit is listed as being a waterproof toy, you will find out more about that in my experience section. While the vibrations have some power behind them I found them to be buzzy, an buzzy vibrations just don't do it for me. On a power scale of 1-5 I would say it is about a 3.5 which is pretty decent but probably would satisfy a power queen. Packaging Like the rest of their packaging I am in love with how Maia packages all of their toys. I do not just love the way they package because of what the package looks like but also because of what is inside. I love peek-a-boo windows means I can look at the toy when it comes in without me having to actually open the box an remove the toy. The outside is pretty class while yes in 2 spots on the sides it does show the Silicone Mini but there isn't any nudity or pictures that I have seen on other toy companies packaging that make it offensive to some. This is a neutral type of packaging I would say it isn't 100% discreet but it doesn't have explicit photos all over it either. On one side (bottom photo) you will see a picture of the Mini Rabbit followed by this information:The Silicone Mini Rabbit is an amazing vibrator from top to tail. It all starts with the smooth rotating tip with its bidirectional, 4-speed functions to delight you. Then, you have the 6 inch shaft with rotating steel beads that caress you in two directions with 4 powerfully hot speeds. The real star of the show is the Ultra 7 Clitoral stimulator. The other side (far right photo) pretty much states the same thing followed by information on the clitoral attachment. On the inside you will find -1 Mini Rabbit -1 Instruction/Warranty Pamphlet -1 Color Therapy Guide -1 Custom Toy Pouch The Instruction/Warranty Pamphlet is pretty universal for all of Maia's toys that they offer. Basically it will help you figure out how to get your batteries in right an a few other helpful hints. You read that right the Mini Rabbit as well as all the other toys that are offered from Maia Toys have a warranty. It is a 90-day warranty for damaged or defective items. While it doesn't sound like much I have to say any warranty is better then no warranty at all. You can fill out the warranty information HERE within 10 days of ordering. The color guide just shows you the toys they offer (pictures), the names of the color categories and what each color represents. In with the pamphlets you will find a small bag with a toy pouch inside. I love that each toy by Maia Toys comes with its very own toy pouch that is just the right size for the toy. The Mini Rabbit rests in a plastic shell keeping it in place during shipping. If you usually toss your packaging I would recommend hanging on to it for at least 90 days in case you have to use the warranty. If you do decide to toss the packaging it is all recyclable so toss it in your recycling bin instead of the trash. I personally like to keep all my original packaging odd I know. Caring/Storing It is pretty simple to care for your Silicone Mini Rabbit, being that it is waterproof you can easily clean it off in the sink without worries. As I mentioned earlier in the review you can sterilize silicone for your own personal hygiene reasons or if you plan to share your bunny. I will list all the ways to clean it and the ones that will sterilize it I will put an (*) beside it. -Antibacterial Toy Spray- Spray this on your Mini Rabbit let it sit for a minute then wipe clean and dry -Antibacterial Soap & Hot Water- Using an antibacterial soap you will want to wash your rabbit thoroughly. Rinse thoroughly and dry before storing -*10% Bleach Solution- Add 10% bleach to 90% water wipe down or soak your bunny for 5 minutes. Make sure to rinse thoroughly before storing. Since there are motors inside of the Mini Rabbit you will want to avoid boiling it on the stove or placing it in the dishwasher. While those methods are known to sterilize a toy it will damage the motors inside due to the high temperatures it is being exposed to. When it comes to lubricant options it is known that you can't use silicone lubricant with a silicone toy. If you want to use a silicone based lube or a hybrid lube it is best to spot test on a part that won't be inserted into the body to see if there are any types of reaction to the silicone. I used a water based Organic Lube during my session with this rabbit. Storing your Mini Rabbit should be pretty simple especially since it does come with its own toy pouch. There is no padding but that should be fine since it's not a glass toy so you don't have to worry about breaking it. The included pouch is kinda stretchy and silky feeling, it also has a drawstring so you are able to pull it tight an tie it up. This isn't a toy that is discreet it will be known what it is used for if seen so you will want to put it in the pouch to hide it. Upon storing make sure you take your batteries out you can read my post on battery removal and why it is important here. My Experience Now on to the part that I try to keep just in the experience section instead of throughout the review. My experience was okay I can't say that I had mind blowing orgasms with the Mini Rabbit. I was able to feel the rotation while inside me it wasn't really strong but enough to feel. Downside for me was when I would have a vaginal orgasm and my vaginal muscles would tighten and clench down on the shaft the rotation would stop until my muscles relaxed again. I need something that isn't going to stop while I am trying to get pleasure and reach orgasm I love the feel of toys that rotate while inside me but if my vagina clenches the toy isn't going to last long sadly. I have ruined several toys that have rotation features that way. I have had people joke with me about having a "Vagina of Steel" but that isn't the case my muscles are just super toned in the lady bits. Personally I wouldn't say that the Mini Rabbit is waterproof it might be splash proof but waterproof NOT so much. While I am sure many of you have read in previous reviews I do NOT usually test out the waterproof features on toys. The reasoning behind that is if I like a toy and it isn't truly waterproof I am left pissed because a good toy went to Toy Heaven long before its time. Well I grabbed a few toys an headed off to the shower, mind you I didn't play in the shower I just washed Mini Rabbit in the sink with Antibacterial Toy Wash that I bought awhile back. After I finished washing it in the sink I laid it on a dry towel, dried it off an got in the shower an left it to dry some more. When I got to my room I made sure that NO part of the outside was wet to keep any water from getting inside. A completely DRY toy on the outside was NOT completely dry on the inside I removed the battery cap an found water on the underside. I dried it off laid it on the bed, I removed the batteries an they had water droplets on them as well. I dried off the batteries an made sure water wasn't deep inside the battery compartment which there wasn't. I am not sure what would have happened if I would have hopped into a full tub of water with the Mini Rabbit. I do like the velvety feel of the silicone used though. I really wish I had more positive things to say about this particular vibe. **Please note I have spoken with the company and they are aware of the issues I had with the Silicone Mini Rabbit. Being a newer company they are still trying to work out all the "bugs" so to speak in their products.** Thank you to Maia Toys for providing me with the Silicone Mini Rabbit free of charge in exchange for an honest & unbiased review. |
