My Wearable Vibrator!!!

Sex Toy – Review [Affiliate Links Inside]

AYA, Wearable Vibrator from Zalo

While I don’t review toys nearly as often as I probably should, when I do have the opportunity, hot damn do I ever have a fun time.  This was my first toy that came with a remote control and was wearable!!!  And let me just say, I absolutely found the perfect volunteer to help press my buttons! If you want to read the more …*ahem* erotic tale of our testing session you can find that on my Patreon (after dark).  For this blogs purpose though, let me share my thoughts on the pros, cons, and ultimately why I am absolutely a fan of the Aya Wearable Vibrator from Zalo.

Charging

The one down side is the charging time, and so I figured I would just get that out of the way first.  While I understand the accessibility and simplicity that using a USB based charger affords, the reality is that it just slows down the process.  I think my initial charge took over 6 hours to complete.  Honestly, I got bored and went to run some errands so that I was no longer just watching for that blinking light to go solid.  Once charged though, the toy, illuminates in a clear and direct way.

But, on a positive note about the whole charging situation, this is also the first magnetic charger I have used that just worked!  Each and every time the magnet is solid.  So, overall yay?

Sound

Now for the sound, which I think is what people are most curious about.  It is touted as a discrete toy, as far as sound goes, but, I personally wouldn’t be able to go out to a restaurant, to use it. And to be clear, that has nothing to do with the toy itself and everything to do with me. Feeling the intense vibrations (which are amazing and are of course why the this little gem makes sound) has a tendency to create some *cough* sounds, especially when you are someone like me who has a difficult time staying quiet.  The audible gasps, and visibly red cheeks are what would be noticed by a passerby’s and not the little hum coming from inside my underwear.  Ha!

Now, if you are able to stay quiet and calm perhaps you could pull off a discrete romantic candlelit dinner.  As it does specify a 40 dB level which Google handily compared to a library as far as ambient sound. So, I guess it’s up to your personal risk level? All in all, though, it admittedly does sound louder when you are wearing it than it does to anyone else.  So take that with a grain of salt. I did a side by side sound check with with my other toys and it is quieter. As well, the clothing (if you’re wearing it in public for a little risque adventure does mute it as well. I just have no poker face to speak of, so I’m out.

Distance

Let us talk about distance between remote and the wearer.  I was able to test it in a house with three floors.  The remote is quite responsive a floor away, but, it loses connection when you are more than one floor apart (and yes it was advertised as being same room only, but of course, I had to make sure!). Nothing is more fun than running upstairs with a toy hanging out of you yelling “I’m ready! Press more buttons!” Isn’t half the fun of having a helping hand in just seeing their reaction too? I certainly think so! And there are toys out there specifically geared for long distance which I hope to explore in future reviews.   

QR Code

So, there is a QR code, with an app based interface that you can use your cell phone to control this Lovely wearable vibrator.  I have gone back and forth on whether or not I was comfortable testing this feature.  Admittedly am the most tech savvy, tech avoidance person I know.  I love the idea of what technology has to offer, but I struggle with just how much information I ultimately give access to.  If you’ve been following me, or reading my words for any length of time, you’ve probably realized that while I share a tonne about my life, it is always on my terms.  Rarely do I entertain people prying or pressuring me to give more than I already have. So, for the time being, I am not going to download the app.  But, if you choose to and wish to share your experience I would love to include your review for others!  Just comment below and we can chat about that.

Visuals

Ahhhh, for anyone who has read my toy reviews before, I am consistently blow away by how visually stunning toys are made.  Take this one for example.  It is made of velvety soft silicon, that is easy to clean, and a rich green colour.  It has delightful gold accents, that are not only beautiful, but hide the cleverness of a magnet that makes securing to your underwear or chosen fabric even easier (See image). The drawstring bag has come in handy when I have taken the toy over to be tested with my helping hand! And again, I simply love the elegance, and kinda wanna keep the black box (See image) as much as I want to store it in the bag for easy on the go, mobility.  So, beautiful, easy to clean and store, and of course, very soft to touch. Visually stunning!

Recommendation

Overall, I adore this toy.  And it is the first “couples” type toy that I anticipate becoming an active participant in my bedroom. It is not the star, but it is amazing for fourplay, is very fun to use, and just fits my body incredibly well.  Thus, if you are looking for a wearable device, I highly recommend the Aya (which you can purchase directly through this post and support me reviewing future toys!)

As I try to be a glass half full girl, especially being a non-monogamous lady, struggling with social distancing, the timing of receiving new toys to review could not have been better!  There is something about being isolated indoors that makes me a little stir crazy.  And the ability to just hit a button, for a quick, and satisfying release, is… well quite magical to say the least.  A pent-up creator, is a distracted creator, and barely gets any actual work done.  So, let me say a huge thank you to Betty’s Toy Box, for providing me not only one, but two toys (Next review in two weeks) from the Calexotics California Dreaming Collection.  And a special shoutout to all those who voted on my Patreon page for the Catalina Climaxer to review first!

So, let us begin.  After I spent about 20 minutes just staring excitedly at my new toy, I finally opened the box and began the first charge.  It took less than an hour, but of course it felt like a lifetime.  During this time I became familiar with all the magical settings and chose the vibrations of the main shaft and the clitoral stimulator I guessed would get me off the fastest.  Once charged, I gave the toy a good, cleaning with soap and water. Next it was onto drying very carefully with a clean, fuzz free towel.   I excitedly pressed the bottom button for the first time, and raced downstairs to show my partner that it was now officially… ALIVE!  We giggled, filmed a few silly videos of it buzzing happily on the desk, and button mashed to ensure we were confident in knowing what every possible setting was!

Phew, now with that out of the way, it was time for my solo testing to begin.  I should mention, that I am always skeptical of new toys.  I have my standard go to, that never fails to get me off, quickly and efficiently.  So, with new toys, I have to give myself a whole bunch of extra time for fair testing.  And let me just say, I am so glad that I did.  At first, when I inserted it, I was having troubles figuring out if I had pressed both buttons for external and internal stimulation, because quite frankly, it was intense from the get go.  A very powerful motor was fueling this little guy.  I quickly pressed the off switch and more carefully pressed the buttons, which I should mention are very well sized, and easy to use once your brain is on… Haha! Now I could play around with intense rotation of the big head inside me, while increasing the motor for the exceptional clitoral stimulator. 

There are tiny little silicon protruders on the clit side of things and normally I think these are a little gimmicky, but consider me a reformed sex toy user, because, holy crap did that spread help to ensure that I go the most out of that vibration.  I was even able to wipe off a little of the water based lube I had put on, due to being so turned on myself.  It was intense!  The last toy of this nature, with what I assumed was similar material, design, shame and feel I tried, didn’t even warrant a blog post, due to it just being … meh.  I wrote a review for the company and went on my merry little way.  This however, completely changed my mind.  Nope, not all toys are created equal, not even close!  And I cannot wait until I can share with you the next one from my package!  Isolation is so much easier with high quality, and amazing toys!!!
