HONI Mini Vibe from Picobong

Picobong are a new brand of sex toy brought to you by the designer brand Lelo. They offer stylishly designed sex toys at affordable prices, but which have an element of fun and appeal to the younger market - I certainly feel that they've achieved this. I was recently very lucky to receive the HONI Mini Vibe in blue free of charge, in return for an honest review.

HONI Mini Vibe (boxed)

The vibe comes in a stylish box which is relatively small so there's not much waste packaging. I love the contrast of the blue and black colouring on the box as it looked very appealing, yet smart and modern too. The clear front allows you to see the vibe and a dice too (that had me pretty curious!). Each Honi Mini Vibe is available in Cerise, Blue or Black and the boxes correspond to the chosen vibe colour.

Inside the box

Opening the box was really easy and theres a black cardboard insert which simply pulls out with the vibe and dice attached. Tucked neatly behind are a user manual, a 1 year warranty and a handy do's and don'ts leaflet. To detach the vibe from the cardboard insert, unscrew the end and hey presto!

With end unscrewed for battery insertion

As you can see from the pic above, the single AAA battery (not included) easily fits into the end of the vibe and then you're pretty much ready to go.

Very clever on/off switch

I absolutely love the innovative idea of where the on and off buttons are placed - as shown in the pic above, the '+' in the centre of the 'b' turns on, whilst the '-' in the centre of the 'p' decreases the vibration and penultimately turns the vibe off. Continually pressing the '+' button will allow the vibe to advance through the speeds and once the highest level of intensity is reached (after 18 clicks), you can actually change modes by holding down the '+' button for 2-3 seconds. This will vary the rhythm of vibrations giving you exactly what you need, when you need it.

Due to the design and smoothness of this vibe I didn't find the need for any lube, although if you do need to use some, make sure it's water based.

It's a good idea to have a little play with your new toy first, flicking between modes to see which one excites you, as once the toy is inserted, you'll need to fully remove it again to change the vibration (this can be a little tricky, especially once the juices have been flowing as it becomes quite slippery).

This claims to be quiet and discreet - and that's exactly what it is! There's a very gently humming noise, although you do have to strain your ears a little to hear it - perfect for some private fun, even whilst in the company of others!! The HONI is by far the most silent vibe i've tried so far.

Once inserted, the HONI's unique pleasure points burst into action stimulating those hard to reach pleasure zones. From a gentle tickle to good stong pulsating vibrations, this vibe is sure to satisfy your sexual urges. I even managed to walk around with the HONI still inserted which was alot more comfortable than I expected - and best of all, nobody knew my little secret ;) Once you're done, simply give the handy string a gentle pull and you're sorted. Clean with antibacterial wash, but make sure you get in all the grooves between the lettering. Fresh batteries should give around 2 hours of constant use - not that you'll need that long!

The dice that came with the vibe has pictures of each of the Picobong vibes in the range on it. There is no explanation either with the vibe, or on the website as to it's purpose, however my theory is that when you roll the dice, whatever it lands on is the next toy you should purchase, or better still, get someone else to buy it for you.

All in all this is a fantastic little vibe which is fun and quirky, yet with an elegant designer touch. The compact size means it can travel with you anywhere, and the 'no noise' factor means it can be used anytime and wherever the fancy takes you. The HONI is also fully waterproof and is phthalate free, as are all other Picobong toys.

The HONI Mini Vibe is available from Picobong at a cost of £26.95 and is available in blue, cerise or black. There are 5 other products available too, so why not have a nosey and see what takes your fancy - you know you want to!
