-Use-

Untitled-8Mini G Rock from Cal Exotics is a ‘C’ shaped toy that’s designed to stimulate both internal and external pleasure spots at the same time.  Great for hands free fun, the vibe can be inserted while you rock your hips when sitting or laying down, and can be used with or without the bullet inserted.  If rocking isn’t your thing, you can easily move the toy with your hands, or your partner can lend you theirs.  This toy is very easy to use and shouldn’t intimidate most partners.

Though it’s designed for vaginal insertion, aimed mostly at G-spot pleasure, this toy can also be used anally.  Cal Exotics actually has a P-spot version of this toy for males.  The only real difference is the color, so as long as you don’t mind it being pink, this toy can also be used to stimulate the P-spot through anal penetration.  You’ll need to make sure it’s fully sterilized before switching from anal play to vaginal, but I’ll cover that more in the care section.

With or without the bullet inserted, you can use this toy in the tub or shower.  Because the included bullet is waterproof, there’s no concern about water leaking into your toy, no matter how you use it.

-Material/Texture-

Mini G Rock has a silicone body, and a plastic vibe which has a silicone covering on the cap.  Being silicone is great because it’s a body safe material that is non-porous and phthalate and latex free.  The silicone this one is made from has a matte looking surface which is fairly smooth.  It does create some drag and it does pick up a small amount of lint, but it’s far less than shiny silicone toys.

There is only a small amount of texture and it’s on the top of the external stimulator, which I thought was a bit odd.  There’s a set of four hearts, one large and three small.  The reason for this?  I have no idea since it doesn’t come in contact with your body.  There is a seam that goes over the length of the body, on either side.  You can hardly feel it with your hands and can’t feel it at all during use.  Apart from that, there’s no texture to the toy.

The insertable area of the toy doesn’t really have much give to it when you press on it, but the opposite end is a little more pliable.  You’re able to sort of squeeze it while it still remains firm.  The toy has a decent amount of flexibility to it as well which makes it work better for a wider range of users.  The ends can bend toward and away from each other with ease, but always goes back to the ‘C’ shape when you let go.

-Design/Size-

The curved design to this piece is great for someone interested in trying out a dual stimulating toy for the first time. Having a bullet in place takes away the confusion that may surround some rabbits because the controls on this toy are so simple.  The insertable portion of the toy has a rounded tip that slightly narrows before becoming thick again and the opposite end of the toy is sort of flat and a little wider; almost appearing as though this end originally looked like the G-spot side but was squished.  On the back of the toy, in the center area, is a small hole where the bullet goes.  It will fit any standard size bullet (5/8″ in diameter), so if the one included doesn’t work for you, another one will (Salsa fits!!).

Untitled-4The size of the toy is very modest, being a great fit for beginners and those that prefer slimmer toys.  How it fits with your body will really depend on anatomy, but the flexibility should make it work for more people than not.  Size queens will find this toy is quite lacking, but it does do a good job of targeting your G-spot.  The full length of the toy (when measuring around the curve) is 10″, but is 4 1/2″ if you measure across the toy as it is.  The thinnest insertable area is 3/4″ in diameter, and the thickest is 1″.  The toy can be inserted about 4 1/2″.

The bullet is standard size, being 5/8″ in diameter, but has a thicker cap that’s covered in silicone.  The plastic is white and totally smooth which does help a little bit with putting the bullet in place and removing it.  The bullet can be a little challenging to remove, and worse, it’s very easily to accidentally pop the cap off when you’re trying.  If you’re not careful, it also seems like it would be easy to peel the  silicone off the cap of the toy.

The toy is fairly travel friendly and is more discreet looking then some.  It wouldn’t take up too much room in a suitcase, but might seem a little large for a purse.  If someone were to see it, it would be difficult to pass it off as anything other than an adult product, but it doesn’t immediately catch your attention as such.

-Functions/Controls-

The bullet included with this toy is very basic.  Prior to using you need to insert the included N type battery.  There’s a paper included with the toy, but as soon as you open the cap, you’ll also see a thin plastic piece that shows you how to insert it.  It’s very straightforward and simple.  Once the cap is screwed back on, you simply press the top where it shows the power symbol, and it turns on.

It’s a single functioning bullet.  You press the power button once and it turns on, you press it again, and it turns off.  There are no patterns, no variety of speeds; just one setting.  The setting is a steady vibration that is very weak and buzzy.  If you are extremely sensitive to vibrations it may work for you, but the power was nothing more than a light tease to me.  It does travel through the toy fairly well, but is much weaker in the external area than the insertable tip.

Being so weak does have one advantage, it’s very quiet.  You might be able to hear it if you’re in the same room with someone, but no one outside of a closed door will know what you’re doing.  It’s great if you have roommates and sound is a concern for you, but it might not be worth it because of the power you’re sacrificing.

-Care-

Silicone can be cleaned using antibacterial soap and warm water or your favorite sex toy cleaner.  Always make sure you remove the bullet and don’t put it back in place until both pieces are fully dried.  If you are planning on switching orifices or sharing with someone else, it’s important to fully sterilize it.  You can do so by boiling it for three minutes, wiping it down with a 10% bleach solution, or placing it on the top rack of your dishwasher.

Water-based lube is recommended for silicone toys, other types may damage the surface of the toy.  Since there’s no obvious texture and the surface is pretty smooth, a little goes a long way.

There was no pouch included with the toy, and the packaging isn’t great for storage.  You’ll want to find something else that will work.  A sandwich bag will do, but you may want to find a medium sized pouch to house it.

-Packaging-

The Mini G Rock comes in thin plastic packaging that is pretty standard for Cal Ex toys.  It’s not discreet and is a little tacky looking.  It does have a good deal of information on the back of the packaging, but it’s not important to keep it just for that reason.  You can break it down and recycle it as soon as you find another storage option for this toy.

-Experience-

I knew the bullet included with this toy wouldn’t be enough for me, since they rarely are, but I was really curious about the shape of the toy in general.  I need clitoral stimulation in order to orgasm and not many rabbit vibrators work out for me because of my anatomy.  Did the Mini G Rock connect properly with my anatomy, yes.  Did it provide the stimulation I was looking for, no.  The external stimulator is wide and awkward.  It can stimulate a little, but not directly on the clitoris.  I’m not sure if this is because I’m a little chubby down there, or if it’s the design in general.  I’m guessing it’s a little of both.  If this area was more pinpoint rather than broad, it would probably work better for more users.

For a beginner and someone more sensitive to vibrations, this would be a great toy.  It’s inexpensive, made from great materials, and is very easy to use.  To those of us who need more power, the good thing is that this bullet can be removed and replaced by one that will better suit our needs.  Overall, it’s an okay toy, but didn’t really rock my world.

  1. Great review, this is pretty awesome I think I would like the rocking feature but it would take me some time getting used too.
