Impressions:
You don't need to work for NASA
to operate this rocket. Although
a degree in opening packages might
come in handy! Once I finally wrestled
it free from it's packaging, I was
greeted by something resembling
a tube of lipstick. Also included
were three plastic caps that fit
over the end of the Rocket. There
were no batteries included with
this kit but it only requires one
AA, so it's fairly cheap to run
unlike a space shuttle. So onto
the true test of any sex toy, all
together now, 10, 9, 8 …
Solo
play:
Despite its size this Rocket packs
a powerful punch. Not quite enough
to send me to another planet but
I was surprised at just how much
juice this baby delivered. The main
disadvantage I found was it sounded
like a beard trimmer and also the
vibrations traveled along the entire
shaft of the toy and up to my wrists.
At first I found both disconcerting
and distracting but I soldiered
on like a good astronaut and soon
forgot about both.
I did find that a little lube was
a definite must with this toy, as
the vibrations were pretty intense
on first contact. If you're like
me and don't particularly enjoy
direct clitoral stimulation be warned,
and make sure you avoid that sensitive
area. It will sure send you into
orbit but not the type we are trying
to achieve. I found concentrating
the vibrations around other areas,
such as my pelvic bone and outer
lips much more pleasing but that's
just me. For me the attachment with
no knobbles worked best, the others
were really just too intense, sensation
wise. Not that that's a bad thing
and for many women that would work
wonderfully.
Partner play.
My research assistant [formally
known as my Hubby] wasn't particularly
impressed with the Rocket or its
vibrations. He found them a little
too intense and distracting when
we tried it. He also complained
about the noise it made, something
I discovered could be dulled a little
by placing a small sliver of paper
between the casing and the battery.
Now this is a man who's not afraid
to try new things or toys but he
really wasn't keen on this one.
Nothing I tried convinced him, and
it wasn't helped when I placed the
rocket on the bed and it decided
to slither across the bed like an
extra terrestrial on a collision
course with earth. It did make for
a lot of laughs though which isn't
such a bad thing in the bedroom.
It also goes to show just how powerful
this little toy was.
What's
It All Add Up To?
The Pocket Rocket is small and compact
and that is always a plus in the
real world. The fact that it delivers
such intense vibes is also a plus.
Now, if we could have just gotten
NASA to work on quieting it down
just a little, this for me would
have made it the perfect traveling
companion. For us this turned out
to be a solo play toy, but it was
fun exploring its potentials and
pitfalls all the same, and that's
what sex toys are about as well
as achieving orgasms..
