Ooo, what’s that?

It’s the Cloud 9 by California Exotics, and it’s just as chunky as it looks. I literally giggled as I inserted it, excitedly pulled it out and hugged it, then batted my baby-blues up at M and breathed, “It’s so chunky.”

What’d it come in?

It came in a soft pink cardboard box with a picture of the toy on the front and what the toy does on the back.

How’s it made?

The Cloud 9 is six inches of lavender plastic, all told, with an insertable length of four and one-half inches long. At its widest point, it’s one and three-quarters inches and it has a circumference of five and three-quarters inches. But would you look at all those bulges? It feels much chunkier than it looks. Waterproof. And it’s heavy for such a short vibrator. 

The surface is smooth and nonporous. It’s phthalates and latex free. Hypoallergenic. And made of a food-grade material.

The very tip top is long and sort of sloped downward. It’s got five little nubs, each about a quarter inch in diameter and about half an inch apart, running along the surface. Then it narrows and then bulges out again, finally narrowing to the dial control.

There’s only one vibration setting that increases with the turn of the dial. And I found it pretty strong, yet quiet.

What’s it for?

G-spot stimulation, obviously, but it can be used for clitoral and erogenous stimulation as well. I’m not sure I’d suggest anal insertion, but the vibrations might feel nice around the anus.

How is it?

I’m kind of biased. What do I mean?

Well, you see, here’s the thing. This toy, with the vibrations somewhere between low and medium, and the help of M’s thrusting, gave me my first ever (and so far only) g-spot orgasm without clitoral stimulation. But he still says the g-spot doesn’t exist. Ba-dum-bum.

I love this toy. Period. End of sentence.

It bulges in all the right places. It’s great for textured clitoral and vaginal stimulation. It’s got all the drag Velvet Cote has to offer. And the vibrations are almost perfect. It’s definitely my new favorite g-spot vibe.

How do you care for it?

Wash it with antibacterial soap or wipe it down with isopropyl alcohol. Use toy wipes or toy cleaner. Make sure the washer’s in place and the battery cap is on tight when you take it in the shower. DO NOT submerge this toy or it will become a dildo. Take the batteries out when you’re storing it and just toss it in the drawer. And use water or silicone based lube.
