Radiance Vibrator Review

I was fully prepared to hate the Radiance Vibe from Babeland. Sure it’s beautiful, but I could summon only the most moderate of expectations from any toy made by Doc Johnson.

It arrived in a clear plastic box with nary a single picture of a bikini-clad lady. This is such a plus in my book. I could live my entire life without seeing another bikini-clad lady on a vibrator box. You’ll find that Radiance is a completely waterproof vibrator thanks to a rubbery seal at the battery end as well as fully sealed power buttons.

Inserting the batteries was just a tiny bit fumbly and only because the cap is quite small and has such a sloping shape. Nevertheless, the cap screwed firmly back on and could then be forgotten until it was time for a new set of batteries.

 

I really like Radiance’s buttons because they are dead simple to use. The top button cycles through four increasingly powerful speeds of vibration. No fancy patterns here, just stronger and stronger buzzing. Need a little less power? Push the bottom button. Keep pushing it and the toy turns off. Toys don’t come much simpler than this, and to my mind this is a very good thing. No one wants to have to take a training course before using a new vibe.

The pair of AAA batteries required by Radiance power a surprisingly powerful motor. Even better, vibrations are concentrated in the toy’s tip. This is fabulous for really intense stimulation of the clit or g-spot. Like things a bit less intense? The toy’s shaft features much more gentle vibration, and it’s super-slippery-smooth. Don’t worry about running the buttons up against your…er…button. It just won’t be a problem.

Radiance’s shape makes g-spot stimulation a real pleasure. The curve positions the intensely buzzing tip in just the right spot without any stress or strain on the wrist. Using the toy this way made me gush quite a lot, during which I said a silent thank-you to whoever designed the waterproof aspects of this toy.

One might be tempted to take advantage of the lovely shape, smoothness and power in the ass, but I wouldn’t recommend it. Radiance lacks a protective flange and could therefore slip all the way inside. Choose a more appropriate toy for backdoor play.

I am almost ridiculously impressed with the beauty and functionality of Radiance. This affordable sex toy should give its lucky owner lots of pleasure.
