Good Vibes Radiant Rose
July 19th, 2026
Good Vibes Radiant Rose
$48.99
from Babeland
Babeland and Good Vibes previously sold this toy under the One brand, (not to be confused with PlusOne; The One appears to be a brand specifically for Babeland/GV). You can still get it as part of the One Threeway bundle, but separately, it’s sold as the GV Radiant Rose. That’s what I’ll call it in this review.
We’re not going to talk about why it took so long for me to write and post this review, but we can talk about why it took me so long to write about any rose toy. It’s not just that they’re super trendy, although the strong marketing campaigns of what were clearly white-label toys left me feeling so inundated that it was surely part of the reason. In a world chock-full of fake reviews on social media and product listings, it’s become harder than ever to tell whether a toy is a complete piece of crap that looks nice.. or is actually worth trying. I couldn’t navigate that world before the One brand showed up from a store that I trust, so I decided to give it a try.
But the main reason I wasn’t interested in rose toys prior to this is that suction toys have thus far failed to do anything for me. I don’t know how much my anatomy plays a role, but it definitely doesn’t mesh with my style of masturbation, which centers around pressure. I’d only tried a couple of brands, but was so underwhelmed that I wasn’t interested in trying any more. The Radiant Rose offers vibrations as well as suction, so I thought that might make a difference.
And it did.
But not the way I expected.
I tried the Radiant Rose with suction and vibration separately and then both together. Overall, I found it to be incredibly overwhelming when using vibrations, which center directly around your clit if it’s in the suction hole (although you don’t have to use it that way for vibes alone; it’s certainly intended that way). When you turn on the toy and look into the hole for the clitoris, you can see the thin membrane of silicone move with the vibration. It’s rather aggressive, in my opinion—uncomfortable and sometimes painful. I’m someone who tends to stimulate the whole vulva area with less direct clitoral stimulation, and I found myself unconsciously pulling my body away from the toy or clenching to avoid the aggressive vibration of the silicone itself and not the body of the toy. For those who require direct clitoral stimulation, this might be a godsend, however.
Because the silicone itself vibrates, I find it difficult to describe the nature of the vibrations. They’re neither super buzzy nor deep, and will likely be plenty strong enough for many people. But the experience is so different that you almost need to throw what you know about vibrators out the window.
On the other hand, the vibrations overwhelmed the suction when using them simultaneously. Suction tends to be a little more understated, and it just couldn’t compete with the vibrations. So even if you love both functions, I’m not sure that using them at the same time is an improvement over using one or the other. I also don’t think that the single button makes a lot of sense with multiple types of stimulation. Surely there should be at least two buttons!
And when it comes to the suction. I was again underwhelmed. I’m not sure if it’s a good fit for me, although I’m positive the recommendation to use lube is supposed to help it work with a variety of bodies. You might recall that suction toys initially came with multiple nozzles to find the best fit. Because there’s no nozzle, removable or otherwise, the Radiant Rose might not work for everyone. In an economy like this, people might not want to risk the sale price of $48.99, let alone the full price of $69.99. And that’s totally understandable.
Aside from the vibrations and suction, I didn’t find the toy to be particularly comfortable to use or hold. The short rose design was hard on my fingers. If you like the stimulation and can hold it with a featherlight touch, this might not be an issue for you. The vibrations also easily transferred to my hands, which is always annoying. And I didn’t find it easy to locate the button with my fingers during use. I had to remove
Placement can also be an issue. Because the entire face of the rose gets placed against the vulva, it’s possible that it might be too large to comfortably fit between some labia and below the mons pubis, especially if your clitoris sits higher. If that sounds like your anatomy, you might prefer a suction toy with only a smaller nozzle that touches your body.
I’m also surprised at the aesthetics of the rose toy. The box recommends using it with lube, as I would generally also recommend, but it ignores the sharp ridges created by the petals, which include some deep and difficult-to-clean crevices if you get any lube or bodily fluids in it (the suction part itself does not open directly into the toy like some of Satisfyer’s older styles; it’s completely covered in silicone). This is a laughably bad design choice that nearly all the rose toys use, likely because many of them are private label toys made from the same exact molds. There is one rose toy that somewhat tackles this issue with a removable nozzle for cleaning and rounded petal edges that are less likely to collect gunk, and it’s made by Lovehoney. I wish Good Vibes would head in that direction for hygiene purposes.
Despite the silicone sheath, the Radiant Rose is only splash-proof, not waterproof. That means you’ll have no trouble washing it (and you’ll likely need running water to wash out the ridges), and you can take it into the shower without worry. But do not submerge it.
One thing I do appreciate is that it’s magnetic. It’s magnetic, and it works with other magnetic chargers, which I discovered when I had to use a Fun Factory (RIP) charger because I wasn’t sure where the charger that came with it was. Magnetic chargers may be all cross-compatible as long as the contact points line up, which would be great. I hate how many proprietary cables I’ve collected. Anyway, has anyone made a charging mat for multiple magnetic toys yet? Or do these work with a car’s Qi charger? If not, someone should get on that. Give me royalties for the idea, though! Charging is super fast with a magnetic charger that plugs directly into an outlet like that, but the original charging cable, which I have since found, has a standard USB plug on the other end with no adapter/block, which explains why I tossed it aside initially. The product is designed to offer 45 minutes of use after 90 minutes of charging. That’s.. yikes. Quite the ratio. But it’s likely because it has two functions.
I also realized that this brand isn’t consistent with charging styles. The Wand uses a standard charger that you plug into a port on the end of the toy, and the Flicker vibe and rabbit have magnetic contact points that are closer together than the points on the rose, so you can’t use the same cables (but the cables those come with seem identical to those that come with some other white label vibrators).
In contrast, the rose sits vertically on a little charging disc, like the much smaller evolution of the Form 2. The idea is that you’d keep it prominently in its place on your nightstand–if you liked it, of course. Many nightstands and lamps, including my new one, have USB ports, so I could do that. The magnetic connection is surprisingly strong, but it wouldn’t be impossible for you or a pet to knock the rose off its base or for the whole thing to fall off a surface, even though there’s a small silicone or rubber dot on the underside, ostensibly to keep it in place.
I know that it seems like I’ve talked about how this toy charges more than how it works. But treating charging connections and cables as an afterthought rather than a cohesive part of the overall brand strategy isn’t good for the reputation (and is one of the complaints I had about Funzze toys). It says that cutting costs or getting product sold quickly is more important than being consistent and reliable and respecting the consumer. It’s a reflection of the overall market and of individual brands. It’s also something that I am sure few people are talking about, which is a shame. It matters.
And the lack of respect for buyers is why it’s so hard to make heads or tails of the sheer number of rose toys out there. It’s why I can’t really say whether this is a good or bad toy compared to others, because there are so many nearly identical toys – including the Inya rose that Babeland also carries. It’s impossible to tell if they’re actually the same on the inside. And in the broader scheme, there’s a bunch of seemingly attractive vibrators that are super weak and slipshod in design. Once upon a time, a toy’s appearance gave you some information about its value and performance, but it’s become too easy to make attractive toys that perform poorly.
The best I can say is, sure, if you’re interested in the rose and suction toys have typically worked for you (or you have reason to think they might), and you can get it on sale and won’t regret the price if it doesn’t work for you, then give it a go. I just don’t feel like I can strongly promote it.
I didn’t mean this to turn into a rant, but we’re in a vastly different Internet than when I first started this blog. A lot of people have come and gone, and a lot of information seems to have been forgotten.. even if the websites that contain it still exist. There are people falling for fake reviews on Amazon listings for $15 toys that might not be made of body-safe materials, and that’s… just the norm now.
While nothing I say will stop people from making — or buying — white label sex toys, and I realize that everyone who wants to remain relevant has to hop on the trends and compete with bottom-dollar Chinese manufacturers, I do wish a brand like Good Vibes/Babeland hadn’t sunk to that level. How do you navigate a market that’s 99% crap, and you can no longer trust the brand names or signals that once hinted at quality?
Things are definitely not coming up roses.

Funzze Round Shape Handheld Massager

Funzze Round Shape Handheld Massager
$39.99
from Funzze
Psst, you can get 30% off sitewide from Funzze until December 1st! Just head to their site and the discount will apply in your cart.
By now, my long-term readers should know that I prefer clitoral stimulation and need a lot of pressure, which is hard on my fingers, that already struggle with sniffiness, even if the toy is plush. So I’m always on the lookout for vibrators that seem like they might work well with my preferences and needs. This leads me to dislike toys that place buttons exactly where I want to press to get some pressure.. and to try some interesting toys, like the Pleasure Tops, Tuyo, or even Lelo’s Ora.
This vibrator by Funzze appeared to fit the bill. The rounded, wider base attaches to a smaller rounded handle, which boasts the button. The design looked to have enough room for your fingers, unlike some that are supposedly designed for this purpose but don’t leave enough room for your fingers. I was also intrigued by the broader base.
So how does it hold up in person?
Upon unboxing, I immediately realized the neck of this toy was flexible, so it wouldn’t serve my purposes for getting a lot of pressure. Bummer. Especially because the knob has nearly a 2-inch diameter, which could relieve some tension on my fingers if the neck were (nearly) rigid. As a result, I wound up using my fingers to press down on the toy in such a way that was awkward and uncomfortable.
I can’t discuss the shape of the vibrator without mentioning the vibrations. Unfortunately, they’re rather weak and buzzy, not unlike the Finger Vibe. Funzze has some decent designs that would be hard to beat if the vibrations were stronger and deeper. For anyone who really needs that, including me, this toy and brand might be a miss. Because of the lackluster vibrations, I found simply placing the vibrator against my body was underwhelming.
Instead, I found it more stimulating to use the toy at an angle with the edge between my labia. Eventually, I was able to get off, but it took a bit of time and effort, and I would have done just as well with my hands. In this position, the handle wasn’t helpful, either.
I think the best use of this toy is as a massager, perhaps with some slick lube or massage oil, being run lightly over the skin, much like a massage stone–if you don’t mind the lighter vibrations. Alternatively, you could hold it against your clitoris or other sensitive parts. Again, if you don’t need something with super strong vibrations.
As you can see from the product photos, the handle looks like it has a bit of a face due to the two ridges on either side of the button. This impression doesn’t go away when the toy’s on and the button lights up blue. For some reason, my brain sees this as bird-like, ha! The ridges help you to find the button but they’re not necessary, and I’d prefer a raised button myself than the single nearly-flush button powers the toy on and off (hold for a few seconds), and cycles through the settings. A second button would be welcome to handle some of those functions.
Continuing the birdy comparison, the contact points for the magnetic charger are on top of the bird’s “head.” Funzze toys come with a USB charging cable and no adapter to plug them into an outlet. This one was charged out of the box, and I haven’t had to recharge it.
Funzze toys also come with a storage bag, but the shape of this vibe makes it difficult to store in a bag, IMO. It’s made from silicone and can safely be stored outside of its pouch. There’s some softness to the silicone, and it attracts some lints, but it’s not the worst ever.
But when it comes to my toys, I want better than that, you know? An interesting design doesn’t do much if it’s not thouroughly thought out, and if the company can’t even come up with unique names, I have to wonder how much thought they’ve giving to design. A rechargeable battery makes little difference if I never want to use a vibe again.
I know this vibrator is incredibly affordable (especially because most toys have gone up in price over years), and I know money is tight for many, but I’d rather steer my readers toward something a bit more expensive or nothing at all.

Funzze Super Powerful Massager
February 12th, 2025
Funzze Super Powerful Massager
$29.99
from Funzze
When I sat down to write this review, I realized how many wands I’d been trying lately. It wasn’t a conscious decision, really. Just what seemed interesting to me in the moment. Funny how that works.
Anyway, the Super Powerful Massager by Funzze will probably we the last massager I try for a bit. So how does it stack up? Is the name accurate?
I wasn’t prepared for just how large the Funzze Super Powerful Massager is. I mean, it looks big in the product photos, but I was taken aback. This vibrator is certainly in another class from the double-headed wand vibrator, but I think it’s the biggest wand I’ve ever tried, and and I’ve used everything from mini wands to the Magic Wand Original. Both the handle and head are the largest I’ve used. It’s over 13 inches long and the head has a diameter of almost 3 inches. This might not seem much larger than the head of the Magic Wand, which I also didn’t love, but it’s even longer than it is size and it looks and feels the part.
I think the overall size seems even larger because there’s a slight contouring of the handle. It’s thinner toward the center than at either end. In use, this makes it somewhat hard for me to find a good place to grasp the toy. I wind up. This might not be an issue with someone with longer fingers or larger hands, however. My fingers can barely touch at the thinnest part of the hand, where the buttons are. I default to the Miracle Massager, which has a smaller handle that’s easier for me to hold.
Despite its size, this massager is rather lightweight. I suspect that’s because the housing is plastic. This obviously isn’t a luxury toy, but at less than $30, that’s probably not what most people are expecting. The larger size and lighter weight may be preferable for some people, too. It’s a lot harder to get cramped fingers.
It’s still functional and rather easy to use, with a single button to turn it on and off and a dedicated button each to cycle through modes and speeds/strengths. You have to cycle through modes or speeds or turn the toy off to get back to the starting settings. I do prefer having arrows that go both ways. I’m also not a fan when toys start on the highest setting, as this one does.
So how does it perform? Fortunately, my vibrator died before I got around to writing this review. I suspect it wasn’t fully charged because I was much more impressed after charging it. The result was vibrations strong enough to make my hand ridiculously uncomfortable while grasping the massager’s head. The Super Powerful Massager is also as loud as its strength suggests, so I wouldn’t use this if you need to be super discreet.
While the vibrations, when fully charged, are fairly impressive, my anatomy just doesn’t love the shape of this wand. The head is so big that it doesn’t comfortably between my labia. I prefer wands with more of a cylindrical shape than a round one because I like the edge, which this toy lacks. If that existed, the larger size might not be a problem. But because I can’t find a sweet spot, the vibrations simply feel.. not as close to my clit as I’d like them. Despite the vibrations being strong enough to impact the entire area, I struggled to get off with this massager.
I also find the flexible neck isn’t as useful as I’d like, and that’s because it’s difficult to hold the handle. I suppose it works if you’re holding the wand from the side, but I’m more likely to hold it closer to vertical, perhaps pulling the handle back toward me. The curved handle on the Miracle Massager works really well for this, whereas this massager size and straight handle don’t.
One thing that I really appreciate about this massager is that it uses a standard micro-USB charging cable. Not only was this helpful when I temporarily misplaced the original cable, but I have plenty of those lying around, including the one that I always keep plugged in for my tablet. That cable proved to be a slightly better fit than the one with the massager, too. I’m not sure how long a full charge should take. And you may experience slower charging if not using the original cable. But it’s nice not to have to use a proprietary charger.
My qualms may mostly be specific to me. If you know you like massagers with large heads, want something a little lighter, stronger, or wireless than what you currently have, or need to pad your toy drawer without breaking the bank, this could be a good option. If you don’t love it, you won’t be out much money. New customers can also save 10% with code NEW10, so it would be even cheaper.
But if my issues resonate with you, Funzze’s Super Powerful massager might not be the right vibe for you, and that’s okay, too.

The One Flicker Vibe
January 16th, 2025
The One Flicker Vibe
$59.50
from Babeland
I’ve been using sex toys for nearly two decades now and reviewing them here since 2008, so it’s safe to say that I am rarely surprised by one these days. Intrigued? Sure. Disappointed? More often than not. But surprised? That’s not so common.
Needless to say, I found the One Flicker Vibe intriguing enough to try it. I wasn’t sure if it was going to do much or if the design was mostly a gimmick that is trending. But if I was going to be disappointed by something, why not be disappointed by something new?
I was surprised to not be immediately disappointed when I realized that this is a dual-ended vibrator. The base also functions as a standard internal vibrator, and I think the shape works well for clit stimulation, too. I wouldn’t call the vibrations super deep or strong, but they’re deeper than they are buzzy and inoffensive.
The vibrations aren’t really the star of the show, however–or what I want to talk about. I anticipated that using the flickering side might hurt because my body hasn’t been super receptive to penetration lately, including the traditional vibrator end of this toy. The design is wide and flatter, with a frame surrounding the flickerer to allow it to work. While the flickering arm is flexible enough to bend with your fingers, the frame is more rigid to keep its shape and does not vibrate. So if you’re looking for a toy that does both, look elsewhere. However, I found it surprisingly easy to insert this toy.
Using it is also easy because the button simply changes the speed of the flicking arm. Because I’d never experienced anything like it before, I don’t know if the slowest speed should be slower, but it starts pretty zippy and only gets faster from there. I found all but the first speed to be uncomfortable or painful.
But as it turns out, I don’t think I need more than one speed. While I can usually control when I squirt with fingers or a toy, including vibrators, the Flicker pretty much gave me no choice and forced me to squirt. I noticed it when I switched to a faster speed, but I think that was just a coincidence, and it would have happened anyway. I have to say the sound the flicking arm made when covered in fluid was ri-di-cu-lous.
I was taken entirely by surprise by this. I’ve never had such an experience before, and while it wasn’t accompanied by an orgasm–which I don’t have when I squirt–it felt like an obvious win to me. What I thought was a gimmick turned out to be pretty effective, and I bet some people would be able to orgasm from the Flicker.
So I tried to turn it off as fast as possible, but not before it cycled through a few more modes. I found the slower pulsation-like setting interesting. Flicker replicates the escalation and pulsation we’re used to, but instead of vibration, it’s a fast flickering increasing in speed or separated by pauses. But I already find most settings on vibrators unnecessary because they don’t offer much more for me, and the same is true for the flickering speeds.
The buttons leave a little to be desired, however. There are only two, and I must assume that more buttons mean more complicated and expensive to make. But it’s not intuitive to me that the same button you hold to turn this toy on and off is also the button you need to click to operate the vibrating end, while the other button only serves to control the flickering. Especially because while you can turn off the flickering with one button, you still need to press the other to turn the toy off completely. A third button to control power would make more sense.
I also wish that the buttons were a bit further apart. Perhaps it’s due to them being closer to the vibrating end, but if I’m using the toy internally and want to adjust it, I find myself hitting the wrong button almost exclusively, even though the buttons face in the direction of the part of the toy they control. If the silver band in the center of the toy is only for appearance, I would rather do away with it so the buttons could be more centered.
I also prefer buttons with nice feedback–a bubbly or clicky button, for example, is much more useful than backlit buttons–and the Flicker buttons fall short. However, I didn’t have trouble using the buttons with my fingernails, which is sometimes the case.
With that said, this toy is still functional, even if not perfect. I’m also glad this toy is fully waterproof–thanks to the magnetic charger–not because I like to use toys in the shower or bath, but because it would soon be ruined if it weren’t. Of course, this aspect also makes cleaning Flicker easier. You really want water to get into all the nooks and crannies around the flicking arm because there are places where you can’t fit a finger, although you may be able to use a small brush for cleaning. Fortunately, these spots are all covered in silicone.
If you’re interested in novel G-spot stimulation, especially one that I’ve found effective, then give the Flicker a try. Right now, this toy is a steal because it costs less than $60. But that’s a steep sale that won’t last forever, so time is limited.

Renegade Curve G-Spot Vibrator
December 12th, 2024
Out of all the Funzze vibrators I’ve tried, Renegade is probably the most frustrating. The shape isn’t one that works well with my anatomy, and I suspect that will be true for many people.
To explain my issues with Renegade, let’s compare it to some similar toys, including the Inside Out and the We-Vibe. Like those toys, the Renegade is intended to offer dual clitoral and vaginal/G-spot stimulation. The shape of this vibrator is sort of halfway between those. Renegade is more like We-Vibe, where the internal and outer arms run parallel with a base, which is more like that of Inside Out. However, the external portion is much shorter than you’d find with the We-Vibe and the G-spot arm much more drastically curved than the Inside Out.
The result is a toy that doesn’t offer a lot of flexibility for clitoral stimulation, especially because there’s barely nub for it! If your clitoris doesn’t align perfectly with where the toy lands, you’re likely to be disappointed. And mine doesn’t. I think the clitoral stimulator should extend much further, more like the We-Vibe. As short as it is (there’s not even a measurement on the product page), I almost feel like the vibrations should point outward in the same direction as the bottom rather than toward the internal arm. But if your clitoris is pretty close to your vaginal opening, the shape of this toy might serve you just fine.
Even if the shape does work for you, the flexibility in the neck of this toy makes positioning a bit frustrating. If that weren’t the case, I suspect many might like Renegade’s more bulbous and mostly rigid shaft as many similar toys aren’t especially filling or are flatter, as with the We-Vibe. But I found it challenging to maneuver and never really managed to find someplace where Renegade felt good. I think a gentler curve would have been my friend.
I’m not sure if any of this was impacted by the overall weight of the base, which is rather hefty. I don’t mind in use, but it’s definitely not a balanced toy. Still, the perpendicular base (kind of like the Cup n Cradle) makes the toy easier to use because I can wrap my fingers around the back and keep my thumb in front to press the buttons. It would also work well if using the Renegade on someone else, although your hand would be in the opposite position. Most internal toys are awkward for me, so I appreciate the attempt.
The buttons are also easy to use by feel. There are three buttons in a row. The outer two buttons are raised while the center power button is inset. All three make a great audible click when you press them, and you’ll be rewarded with vibrations from both motors when you turn it on. The initial vibrators offer some depth, although I think the vibrations in the clitoral stimulator are deeper than those created by the other motor.
There are four levels of steady vibration, each becoming increasingly buzzier before five levels of pulsation and escalation. Of note, the light around the buttons stops flashing when you reach the first or last settings, which is a helpful indicator (if you’re looking at it). It’s easy to spend a couple of extra clicks making sure you’re at the highest or lowest setting on vibes without LEDs.
Because the clitoral vibes are also stronger, the buzziness becomes noticeable when you’re holding Renegade. In fact, just holding it to write this review has left my hand uncomfortably tingly. If the vibrations remained deeper while increasing in strength, they’d be awesome. I also think that some people might want the internal vibrations to be stronger, which I don’t necessarily need, but the internal motor is overshadowed by its partner.
There’s no way to control the motors separately, either, which I would prefer. Instead, you can cycle up or down using the two buttons. They perform the same steady, pulsing, or escalating functions, but some people might wish for separate sensations internally and externally. Renegade is designed to ultimately overwhelm the users with the same type of stimulation from multiple angles to create a more intense experience.
Renegade’s sound output is acceptable based on its vibrations, a nod to its overall quality build. I’m a fan of the silky silicone, which has a tiny hole in the back to plug in the charging cable. It’s snug, so consider Renegade splashproof and okay to use in the shower and wash without worry. I wouldn’t submerge it, though. I haven’t even had to charge it since I got it because the charge out of the box was enough to test.
I wish I liked the shape better because the build is decent, and Renegade is under $50, which is great for a rechargeable vibrator. If your clitoris is close to your vagina, this vibrator might work well for you, making it worth the cost.

The One Wand
December 4th, 2024
The One Wand
$79.95
from Babeland
I wasn’t expecting The One Wand to be quite so small. I mean, it’s not tiny, but some wands are behemoths (I’m looking at you, Magic Wand Original). In comparison, this wand is sleeker. That’s due in part to it being coated in a layer of silky silicone. It’s not a lint magnet and won’t have as much drag as some silicone toys. The appearance is sleek because of this. I don’t know if it’s just me, but the curves on this wand remind me of a person with the angles next to the neck, something like a purple 80s blazer.
You’ll also notice a distinct lack of cord because this is a rechargeable vibrator, unlike most of the wands I’ve tried. And that silicone coating? Makes it waterproof, so you can take it in the shower. Super easy to clean, too. The Hitachi can’t compete with that.
This vibrator is also smaller and less cumbersome than its competition. Overall, The One Wand is less than 9 inches long. The head is around 1.7″ wide, and it’s relatively light to wield. It feels more like an internal vibrator than a massager.
What you can’t see is the flexibility of the neck. This wand isn’t as floppy as the double-headed wand I just reviewed, but the head is probably too flexible for my tastes. At least I don’t want to worry about it breaking. I also find the shape of the head leaves a little to be desired. I like my wands to have more of a flat-top head than a round one, and while The One Wand veers toward flat-ish, it lacks the edge I prefer, like the Miracle Massager.
I do like the design of the three buttons, which are easy to find and press and know you’ve pressed them. That isn’t always the case with controls. They’re easy to use, too. The center button turns the wand on and off, and the + cycles through the ten settings, or you can press – to cycle the other way. This means you don’t have to go through every mode if you press the button one too many times.
As for those settings, three are steady vibration. While the product description calls them rumbly, I think they’re more middle of the road The highest steady vibration setting is definitely edging toward buzzier. That wouldn’t necessarily be a dealbreaker, but the vibrations just aren’t that strong.
After trying the first setting, I hoped there would be more than three continuous modes. I worried I would be disappointed otherwise. I was correct. After trying them all, I thought, “This is it?” They’re more like what you’d expect from an internal vibrator. And for a wand-type vibrator, you expect strong.
The vibrations do have enough power to make the seven pulsation and escalation modes that follow quite punchy, if you’re the type who likes them. I’ve always been about continuous vibrations myself.
I can’t say that I agree it is the one “and only” wand you’ll ever need. It’s just not strong enough for everything, and people like me will benefit from a different size and shape. With that said, it’s a nice vibe. If you want something for clitoral stimulation and aren’t picky, The One Wand could be a good option.
Currently, The One Wand is less than $50 with Babeland’s Cyber Week sale and you can get double rewards until the 19th! So why not, pick one up?
And if you don’t think The One Wand will work for you, Babeland is still offering up to 70% off sidewide.

Funzze Double-headed Wand Vibrator
November 22nd, 2024
Funzze Double-headed Wand Vibrator
$31.99
from Funzze
The second of four Funzz toys I’ve been able to try is the double-headed wand vibrator, which is certainly an unwieldy name. A single-word name would be so convenient, wouldn’t it? Regardless, a toy is more than just its name.
Let’s start with the positive: I really like the G-spot portion of this vibrator. I think the way the curve seems to be carved into it looks unique while creating a contoured head to stimulate the G-spot. The head is the widest part of the insertable shaft at just over 1.5 inches wide (roughly the same as the widest part of the handle and the massager head), but the rest of the shaft is significantly thinner and won’t feel filling if that’s what you’re after.
Now, I don’t need anything particularly fancy or special when it comes to G-spot vibrators. I just need them to have a good enough shape and vibrations that aren’t so buzzy that I’ll give up before any payoff because they tickle my hand. This vibrator succeeds at that. I prefer it on the low or medium setting which offer deeper vibrations than the highest setting. Interestingly, the G-spot portion of this vibrator has deeper albeit weaker vibrations than the wand side, which almost immediately tickle my hand uncomfortably. I wouldn’t complain if both ends were even deeper, however.
Now, on to the really disappointing. I just do not like this as a wand-style vibrator. The neck of the head is so very flexible that it’s impossible to get any pressure. I mean, it bends more than 90 degrees back toward the handle, at which point it sort of rolls to the side rather than staying in place.
Of course, if you’re the type to hold a vibrator against your body, this might not be a deal breaker for you. I’m just not sure why it needs to be that flexible. As soon as I realized how flexible the neck was, however, I knew I would never use it on myself again after completing testing. I guess that means I can’t accidentally break it, not like I’ve done that before.
Even if you don’t mind or actively enjoy the flexibility of the wand side, you might find yourself disappointed with the vibrations. On the lowest setting, they’re not weak, but they are rather buzzy, and that doesn’t improve when you turn them up. You could do worse, but a lot of people want something incredibly powerful from a massager, and this one sacrifices power for duality. After all, the whole thing is less than nine inches long, which is smaller than pretty much any massager without “mini” in the name, including the Magic Wand Original.
The functions are controlled by three buttons: an overall power button and one button for each side. The button “pointing” to the motor you’re using is the one you want to use, which is intuitive enough. They’re completely flat without a lot of tactile feedback about the position of the buttons other than the slightly raised label of each button. As a result, you could potentially have difficulty finding the right button, especially if your fingers are coated in lube, which I recommend using due to the drag of the silicone. Fortunately, I didn’t run into this problem, and I was rewarded with a satisfying click when I pushed the buttons.
Nevertheless, I found myself a bit frustrated with the actual function of the buttons. With only a single button, you must either cycle through all of them to move “down” a setting if you accidentally press the button one too many times. Alternatively, you can turn it off and start all over, which may actually be faster in some instances. This needing to cycle seems to be common with Funnze toys, and I expressed my disappointment with the Finger Vibe. With this toy, you’ll also need to use a motor’s button to turn it back off if you want to switch which function you’re using. The three buttons do let you control the motors independently–and I can’t see why you’d want them both on at once–but they definitely could be better.
The buttons also stand out because the double-sided vibrator is the only one with these particular backlit flat buttons. Other Funzze toys have bubble buttons that are are surrounded by a circle of light or not lit at all. As a whole, the offerings from this brand lack cohesion. While I received a black vibrator, product photos indicate that a purple one existed at some point, even if it’s unavailable now. That purple better matches some of Funzze’s other toys. There are two other toys with the same aesthetic of black silicone and the metallic-looking band. One is another double-ended vibrator with a rabbit instead of a G-spotter. Some sort of metallic decoration is common on Funzze toys, but it’s not necessarily the same color. Many are silver, but I’d say this one is closer to a pale rose gold.
The double-headed wand vibrator is fully covered in silicone, aside from the band, making it waterproof and, as a result, easy to clean and able to join you in the shower. There’s a port on the back of the vibrator for charging, and the website says it will charge fully in two hours, but I haven’t had to charge it at all. There’s no hint as to how long the charge will last, likely because this depends on whether you’re using one or both motors.
My final thoughts are conflicted. While this vibrator didn’t deliver on all of its promises to me, it is a decent G-spot toy, and you can also use that end for clitoral stimulation if you need more pressure, as I do. And at $32, you’re really not going to find a ton of rechargeable silicone vibrators. Some battery-powered vibrators cost more. So even if you absolutely hate one of the functions, it’s still kind of a steal.
