First impressions can say a lot, and despite the rapidly overflowing drawers in which I keep my toys attesting to the number I've seen, no toy has impressed me more before I'd even turned it on than the B-Vibe. An elegant magnetically sealed box containing a convenient carry case with the toy itself inside, I was impressed. The toy itself is smaller than the box might lead you to expect, but it still has enough girth to satisfy anyone. Setting it up with the remote only takes a moment and then you're ready to play. The power available here is intense, and the patterns are fantastic. This is the first toy where I've not found there to be only two or three worthwhile settings, instead I was using the remote to easily cycle through all of them, to incredible effect. Charging the plug is simple. A USB charger is included and it interfaces with the toy magnetically, adding to the overall waterproof nature of the toy. The remote takes a battery, one of which is included, but the life span means that's going to be an issue incredibly rarely. I cannot overstate how impressed I am with this product, from the way the plug gyrates to stimulate your every nerve to the ease of use and elegance of the piece as a whole. I've owned toys from every end of the price scale, and it has to be said this is the one where I've felt the cost is most justified. If you have the cash and want a toy that will really, truly, give you your money's worth, this is the one to go for.
