Forget everything you've ever known about vibrators. Lelo has completely reinvented the shape, sound and function of the vibrator and made it into something you'd actually want to display on your nightstand (rather than keep it in your dusty drawer).

The Nea is about as unassuming and non-threatening as they come. It's so small and sleek that it's almost impossible to imagine any man being intimidated by it if his partner chooses to use it during sex. As a vibrator it's whisper quiet - it 'purrs' rather than buzzes and it's so discreet that it easily and almost invisibly fits in the palm of your hand.

The Nea's finger tip controls are well located at the base of the device, making it very easy to make those much needed adjustments without having to remove it from where its most needed. Given its size and shape the Nea is primarily a clitoral vibrator, and best used for either female masturbation or as a supplement to vaginal sex. It has a built in battery which can be easily charged.

Design wise the Nea is an easy 5 out of 5 stars, the thing is a work of beauty. Unfortunately the bed test of the device didn't get as high marks as my partner felt that it wasn't as strong a vibe as she prefers. So if you've never owned a vibe, are intimidated by the larger more powerful ones, or simply prefer a milder vibrator, The Nea might just be the ideal choice. Otherwise you may want to look at a stronger model.
