The Lovehoney Magic Wand vibrator announces the return of clitoral stimulators wand-type with a scroll wheel ! There was a time when the scroll wheel on wand stimulators was a revolution! You could easily increase or decrease the intensity of the vibrations with one finger and very quickly! The great advantage was that it allowed a gradual increase or decrease in intensity without a sudden drop from one level to another. Since then, the scroll wheel is not used much anymore and it’s a pity!
However, there are still some stimulators that use this wheel and that is of course the case with this Lovehoney Magic Wand vibrator! As I said, there was a time when there were a lot of stimulators of this kind! I’m thinking of the Fairy Mini, the Fairy Turbo or the Fairy Black Exceed, three famous stimulators that have made a lot of clitoris vibrate. It is therefore with pleasure that we welcome this Lovehoney Magic Wand vibrator to review it! Plus, this is Kitty’s first wand (of this kind), so I can’t wait to hear what she thinks of it compared to other clitoral stimulators! Here is our review of the Lovehoney Magic Wand vibrator!
Lovehoney Magic Wand vibrator packaging
Table of Contents
Concerning the box, the first element that we see is really a very typical packaging from Lovehoney! Indeed, it is a cardboard box, mainly white, but rather solid. On the front part, we have the picture of the wand, with some elements specific to Lovehoney, as their logo. We find the name of the wand and some technical information about it.
On one of the slices, we have a few paragraphs about the clitoral wand while on the other slice, we have details on the use of it. This allows us to have a first overview of its functioning.
At the opening, we find ourselves with a big plastic mold, which contains our wand, as well as a small booklet to guide us. It’s a bit of a pity to find plastic, but that’s how it is. In short, the packaging is quite basic, but it can be used to store the product, because unfortunately, there is no storage pouch.
Lovehoney Magic Wand vibrator physical details
Even if it is not the same wand, this Lovehoney Magic Wand reminds me in a way, of the TokiDoki Unicorn! And when you compare them, I have to say that they are actually exactly the same! I wasn’t sure at first, but when I was able to have both of them, side by side, the comparison was obvious! They are absolutely the same, only the colors change! Not to mention of course, the stimulating head in the shape of a unicorn head, which we don’t have on this model!
There are several distinct parts, with on one side, the handle, connected to a power cable on sector, the neck, which makes the connection between the handle and the last element, the stimulating head. For the stimulating head, this one has some stripes that go around it, 5 in number, present on the lower part of the head. The neck of the wand, small, but rather flexible, joins the handle, thinner at the bottom, to increase in diameter when it is closer to the neck. On this handle, we can see and feel a change of material, a kind of plastic leather effect, with a grainy effect, which allows a good grip. The rest of the wand is plastic.
We find of course, a wheel in the center of this area, which will allow us to control the intensity of vibration. And to finish, we have a cable of 1 meter 80, which is rather comfortable, with a UK/US plug. But for me, we use it with an adapter for French plug.
Of course, we also have the Lovehoney logo on this wand! On the back, there are several areas that have holes, to allow air to circulate in the wand, to avoid overheating too!
Size of the wand
As I mentioned earlier, whether it’s the Tokidoki Unicorn or this wired Lovehoney Magic Wand, they are both identical wands! So we have a clitoral wand that measures 31.6 cm (12.44″) long to be exact! The handle is 24.5 cm (9.64″) long with a diameter ranging from 3.7 cm to 5.5 cm (1.45″ to 2.16″). Then we have the part with the neck, which measures 1.8 cm (0.70″) long and 2.2 cm (0.86″) wide. And finally, the stimulating head, 5,3 cm (2.08″) long for a diameter of 6 cm (2.36″). So it is a wand that is not as big as a Europe Magic Wand or the Fifty Shades Freed wand, but bigger than a Fairy Future or a Domi 2 from Lovense.
Other details
The version we received is the white one! However, this wand also exists in other colors, like a “black” version, a “pink” version or even “purple”. And for its weight, it is not as heavy as the big wands on the market, but heavier than the small ones. It’s an in-between between the very light mini wands and the competition wands on the market!
Lovehoney Magic Wand vibrator materials
Here, no surprise, well a little! Indeed, it is mainly ABS plastic that we find on this Lovehoney Magic Wand! For me, it is not a wand with a silicone head! It is rather soft plastic! In fact, unless there is a very very thin layer of silicone present, it is clearly plastic! But still, it’s really soft! Kind of like the ABS plastic of the Womanizer Classic 2.
It’s a hard head, that you can bend according to its neck, quite flexible, then with the rest of the handle in ABS plastic too, except the part with a bit special coating, grainy, as I mentioned, which for the time being, is surely made from a bit special silicone, maybe. Anyway, it is mostly ABS plastic that we have on this clitoral wand!
Lovehoney Magic Wand vibrator use
It is a classic clitoral stimulator, what we call a wand, simple and intuitive! But there are still some information to know in order to use it at best and not to make mistakes.
How to use the wand?
Before trying to use this wand with its wheel, you will have to plug it in! Not to recharge it, but to use it! It’s back to the roots! It is true that nowadays, many wands are wireless, but some models continue to fight against the invader by keeping a power supply! I am thinking in particular of the Doxy Die Cast or the Doxy Massager and of course, the Europe Magic Wand.
The advantage is that you do not lose power and you are not subject to the whims of the battery and its autonomy. On the other hand, you need to be located fairly close to an electrical outlet. However, on this Lovehoney Magic Wand vibrator, we have 1 meter 80 of cable length, which will be sufficient if you are not far from an outlet next to your bed. But in other situations, the cable might be a bit short! Then, to use it, you just have to move the wheel to turn it on, increase and decrease the intensity of the vibrations or turn it off. This is the practical side of the wheel. As a reminder, the format of the plug is UK format (also US), with a small plastic protection on the plug.
But as I mentioned, Lovehoney provides an AC adapter for our wand to convert the electrical format for France! It’s an adapter with a ground connection, which is perfect for safety issues!
What are the modes?
For the modes, you can forget about it! Here, it’s like in the old days, with a wheel that allows you to increase or decrease the intensity at any time. You don’t need to look for specific vibrating modes, you’ll only get continuous mode! Well, it must be said, most of the time, it is the constant mode that users prefer, but there is something for everyone. Anyway, on this model, you’ll have to settle for the constant mode. And you’ll have enough intensity range to make you cum. There should be at least 8 levels, from low intensity to high intensity, there is what it takes! And since it is a wheel, the variation is very simple to set up.
Which lubricant to choose with ?
As I mentioned earlier, this is a plastic head! If you need to use lube, I still recommend using a water-based lube, it will be safer. But it is not a must to use it. It all depends on the sensitivity of your clitoris, if you are going to use the wand over your panties or not and on your natural lubrication. It’s mostly a question of comfort rather than real utility. If you are looking for a lubricant, look at the Sliquid brands, Pjur or Yes.
How to clean it?
Attention, this clitoral wand is absolutely not waterproof! You should not use it under water, in your shower or anything that can resemble it. Moreover, the head is not removable! The easiest way is to take a soft cloth, hardly wet, to clean the head, which will be mainly the part that you have to clean.
Lovehoney Magic Wand vibrator efficiency
It’s back to basics as I mentioned! It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a wand with a wheel! For Kitty, this will be a first! Even though the We-Vibe Wand has some sort of new generation touch wheel, this is really an “Old-School” control system. This will allow her to see the difference with the clitoral stimulators of the same kind that are controlled with 2 or 3 buttons. Here, you just have to slide your finger to change the intensity at any time! Will this be enough to still be an interesting wand? That’s what we’ll see in our review of the Lovehoney Magic Wand!
The ergonomics of the wand
To begin, let’s talk about the design and ergonomics of this wand! Already, in terms of the length of the cable, it is sufficient! It must be said that with 1 m 80 of cord, it still facilitates its use. For example, if you are in bed, with a wall socket next to you, the cable will be long enough that it won’t bother you too much, nor will you have a power cable stretched like a string, with the plug ready to come off.
As for the grip, the clitoral wand is neither too light nor too heavy, but over the duration of your masturbation session, it may be felt at the end of the race. It will all depend on your endurance. But anyway, on a 20 minute session for example, I barely started to feel any weight at the end. I might as well tell you that in 20 minutes, it’s more than enough to enjoy such a sextoy.
Moreover, with the “granular” part in the center of the wand, we have a certain “grip” that allows us not to lose it from the hands at any time. Then, concerning the “control” part, with a single wheel, it is very simple to increase or decrease the intensity of the vibrations. You just have to remember which side to turn the wheel to use it. Simple and practical, the wheel is always welcome on this kind of product.
The sound of the wand
Well, here we go back to a time when the wands were making a lot of noise! First of all, it is a wand with a plastic head (I am also talking about the internal part of the head). Some wands use metal elements, others plastic. This plays on the noise generated by it. But it is also its size and its head that make the noise more acute, less dull than on larger wands. It is true that wands are not known to be especially quiet and you should not expect to be able to use it without being detected. You’re less likely to attract attention with a Lelo Sona 2 for example or the Cuddly Bird for example. Admittedly, they are not the same type of device, but they are also clitoral stimulators.
Is it effective?
So yes, but it is true that there is better on the market, but not necessarily at the same price! In order to give you a review of this wand, I first tried it on Kitty, without her being able to do anything. Indeed, during a game between the two of us, Kitty got a pledge. She didn’t know what was waiting for her, but on my side, I already knew, of course, what it was. So I took Kitty into the bedroom and told her to lie down on the bed on her back.
Once in place, I grabbed the Bound to You ankles cuffs, which I attached to her ankles, then to the Fifty Shades spreader bar. Next, I grabbed both of her arms and placed them over her head to secure her with the pair of Bound to You handcuffs to complete the outfit. This left her with her legs spread, hands up and tied, helpless. I then plugged in the Lovehoney Magic wand, and began to slide the head of it over her labia, at low intensity, to begin to stimulate her quietly. At first she was willing to do it, then gradually she found it hard to keep still. Then she had her first orgasm when I started to direct the wand on her clitoris.
Then I continued again, making her come again, switching to a slightly higher intensity level. Kitty was trying to get out of my grip, as I continued to stimulate her clit, with no way to stop me. As more time passed, Kitty tried to break away, trying to cross her legs, while the spreader bar prevented her from doing so. That’s when she had her second orgasm. From that point on, Kitty could no longer stand the vibrations on her clitoris, even to the point of laughing sometimes, as the stimulation was so strong, ticklish and continuous. So I stopped in order to put an end to this pledge.
Lovehoney Magic Wand vibrator final thoughts
How does it feel to go backwards? Is it such a good thing to have a scroll wheel? Hasn’t it finally become a bit outdated? I think you’ve figured it out by reading our review! The wheel is still a practical system to navigate the intensity levels! However, it is a wand that makes noise, you can forget the discretion. The head is made of ABS plastic, which is not the most comfortable, especially compared to silicone.
You’ll also need to clean the head well, as the ridges tend to retain lube and secretions and we would have liked a little more power cord length, but that’s nitpicking. All in all, it’s a wand that’s still worth a shot, depending on what you’re looking for and your budget!
