Sex Toy Review: The Vibepad 2
I want you to know one crucial thing about myself before I start: I adore grind pads, grinders, or whatever you want to call them. I acquired my first one just over a year ago, and my girlfriend and I immediately fell in love. Having it in my house and getting inquiries about it from the actors who came to film with me was something I enjoyed, as was watching her use it and getting up and performing for her.
We love grinders in this house.
My partner snatched the box from me when I opened a Peepshow Toys delivery and took out the Orion Vibepad 2, running upstairs while laughing and yelling, "I have to try this right away!" Both of us were eager to test out our first vibrating grinder.
What are grind pads or grinders? For people who like non-penetrative humpings, such as pillow humping or thigh humping, these humpable toys—sometimes motorized, sometimes not—are ideal.
While some are about one foot in size, others are tiny enough to fit in the palm of your hand. These days, there are penetrative grinders like the VibePad 3 with a vibrating G-spot dildo and the Lust Dual Rider Thrust & Grind!
Since you're primarily here to learn about the Orion Vibepad 2, let's now discuss it.
Pros:
- It is possible to utilize a fluttering tongue for anal or clitoral stimulation.
- Operated by a remote
- Two motors that are individually controlled
- Excellent for stimulating without using your hands.
- Flexible sides
- Each motor has seven vibration functions.
- The warming action of the more minor bump
Cons:
- Finding the optimum fit for you could take a few tries because there are no strap holes to wear on a thigh for partner play.
- Each motor has only two speeds.
When I first used the Vibepad 2, I struggled to get into a rhythm. Positioning a grinding toy requires experimentation! Even though I was curious if it was for me, I persisted in trying and experimenting until I discovered how to use it most effectively. It was too soft for the corner of my bed, so I put it there. Next, I put it on a chair, which was better but still not quite right, and lastly, I folded a pillow in half and placed it on top. It eventually worked for me at that point. My partner, who is transgender, on the other hand, quickly got into it!
At 11.4 inches long and 8.15 inches wide, the Vibepad 2 is unquestionably the most enormous grind pad in my collection. Although I can understand how they could have narrowed it, I'm relieved they didn't. Since your thighs hold it when you use it on a pillow, the flexible sides help keep it in position. I doubt I would have liked this as much if they had removed those.
Because they are separately driven, you can utilize either or both motors. Changing the vibration functions is also simple because a compact, rechargeable remote operates them. Compared to other vibrator types, the two-speed selections per motor are limited. Therefore, I wish there were more. I would personally exchange some of those vibration patterns for additional speed choices. (The VibePad 1 offers three more constant speeds!)
The bumps' shape and size appeal to me; they're tall enough for even plus-size bodies to enjoy humping and grinding away and wide enough to help spread you open if necessary. The tongue is intended to flutter against your clit, but I discovered that it can also be used in the opposite direction.
The fluttering tongue distinguishes the Vibepad 2 from Orion's first Vibepad. Everyone can enjoy using the Vibepad 2, regardless of genitals, thanks to that design adjustment. Take pleasure in clitoral stimulation? Use the smooth bump or the tongue side! Are you getting rimmed in love? Flutter that tongue and grind!
Generous amounts of lubricant enhance this vibe, as I've discovered with every flickering tongue toy I've used. Lube eases the discomfort of that fluttering tongue and makes grinding more enjoyable.
In general, the Vibepad 2 is excellent. I use it more for solitary play than pair play, although you can get creative and discover ways to use it with your partner or partners. This certainly raised the standard for a first motorized grind pad, and I'm eager to see what Orion will create next!
