Hot Octopuss DiGiT Extra Powerful Rechargeable Finger Vibrator

I was lucky enough to be sent this free for the purposes of review by Lovehoney, and I'm glad I was.

I got this out of the box, (discreet packaging as always from Lovehoney), and immediately put it on charge. Finger vibrators are a type of vibrator I'd never used before so I was pretty excited, but I also had some preconceptions, which I'm glad to say were shattered by this thing.

Firstly, I assumed the build quality (especially the finger loops) would be terrible quality. They look fairly cheap in the photo, but they can take a good bending without snapping.

Secondly, I assumed the vibrations would be weak. This is anything but weak, it starts quite low but on the higher settings it totally blew me away. The third was that they'd be cumbersome and unweildy during sex, and that wasn't true either, it's like a little vibrating extension to your finger as it is.

The vibrations are amazingly high for such a little product, and it's super quiet. You can use this without worrying about being heard at all. I thought the finger loops would be too small for my fairly stumpy fingers, but they actually fit surprisingly well. The patterns are nice too, but it's kind of hard to tell which one you're on as a lot of them are the same. It's visually stunning, and the build quality is absolutely top notch.

Unfortunately though there were a few issues that stopped me writing a perfect review- they're not deal-breakers, but be aware before buying. When you turn it on, you have to hold the power button for 2 seconds. It doesn't seem huge, but in a world where almost all vibrators are just a press to turn on and hold to turn off, it's just a little odd, and pausing to give your partner a little tutorial in the throes of passion isn't exactly a sensual experience to be remembered.

The other is the charge port. It's on the actual business end of the vibe rather than at the base which would have been a bit easier to access. It's fiddly to insert the cable, and because there's no plug I also don't buy that it's 100% waterproof.

Other than that, it's definitely worth picking up for couples' play. The vibrations are powerful, the build quality is great, it looks lovely and it's super fun. Even though it's enjoyable solo, for £60 there are nicer vibes for solo play.

This is the first finger vibe I've owned and I am a little disappointed. I like a lot of things about it; the silicone feels nice and smooth, it is comfy and easy to wear, the controls are simple, and the battery lasts a long time.

Unfortunately, the power of the toy lets it down. Maybe I've been spoiled by stronger toys, but even a AAA battery powered bullet vibe I own is more powerful than this.

On top of that, the price just rubs salt in the wound. For £60 you could get a mains-powered wand vibrator or this weak little finger vibe. I know what I'd rather have.

Overall I can not recommend this toy. Unless you can purchase it for a considerably large discount I would spend your hard-earned cash on a different toy.
