Spotlight: Lelo Mia USB-rechargeable Vibrator

By Julie-Anne Stanoch, © 2012

Picture of LELO Mia USB Lipstick Vibrator

Mia from Lelo is a lipstick shaped, USB-rechargeable vibrator. It features a stylish and sleek design which will not look out of place in your handbag, so it's ideal when you're on the go.

Mia's short and squat shape makes it best suited to clitoral stimulation, and on the highest vibration setting it should have no trouble bringing you to orgasm quickly.

There are a total of 4 different stimulation modes, accessed using the two soft-touch buttons, ranging from a light fluttering motion to a strong pulsing vibration. For something so small, Mia packs quite a punch.

The smooth, tapered and unassuming shape of Mia makes it perfect for those who have never used a vibrator before.

Charging

Pull off the snug fitting cap and you will find a USB plug, allowing you to plug Mia straight into your computer's USB port. Mia comes with a short USB extension lead in case your USB ports are hard to reach or Mia's shape prevents it from being plugged directly into the port.

When fully charged, Lelo claims a battery capacity offering up to 4 hours of use, and although we haven't tested this claim, based on our experience of other Lelo toys we have every reason to believe them.

What's in the box?

  • Lelo Mia rechargeable vibrator and end-cap
  • USB extension lead
  • Instruction leaflet
  • Lelo warranty card
  • Drawstring travel pouch

Our review model also came with a small sample of Lelo personal lubricant.

The good

  • Powerful vibrations ideal for stimulating the clitoris.
  • Very quiet when in use.
  • Quality feel.
  • Rechargeable so no need to replace batteries.
  • Stylish, modern and discrete appearance.

The not so good

  • Only really practical for clitoral use due to its small size.
  • You need a USB port to recharge it.

Verdict

Mia is a superb addition to the Lelo range and comes highly recommended. If you're looking for a small, quiet yet powerful rechargeable vibrator, Mia will not disappoint.

How to Care for your Silk Lingerie

So you've just bought some beautiful silk lingerie, and you're wondering how to keep it looking and feeling great for years to come. Well we have a couple of basic tips to help you out:

  • Always hand wash your items if possible. If you really must use a washing machine, make sure it has a delicate cycle.
  • Use a mild liquid detergent, and make sure it does not contain bleach. Bleach will weaken the natural fibres of the silk and change its colour.
  • Never put silk items in a tumble dryer - they are too hot and the rotation can damage delicate items.
  • Always let items dry naturally - though you should avoid direct sunlight as this can cause colours to fade.
  • Always read the label for instructions specific to your garment.

With proper care and attention, your silk lingerie will stay looking great for many years.

Wartenberg Pinwheel Now Back in Stock

Picture of Fetish Fantasy Wartenberg Pinwheel

We are pleased to advise that the ever-popular Fetish Fantasy Wartenberg Pinwheel is now back in stock.

Although it has been around for years, the pin wheel was brought to the attention of many when it was mentioned in the Fifty Shades Trilogy, and it has been growing in popularity ever since.

The Wartenberg wheel was originally designed by Robert Wartenberg to test nerve reactions, however in recent years it has become popular within the BDSM community. It is a great little device for enjoying sensory play, and you can be as gentle or rough as you like. Our pin wheel is made of stainless steel and should last a lifetime.

Buy now for £10

If you're curious as to the origins of the wheel, which was originally designed for medical use, you can learn more at Wikipedia.
