Thanks to some digging through my LJ archives, I've suddenly realized that my poor finish-less vibrator is almost four years old. (Dye problems aside, I guess the product itself was pretty good quality.) Normally I wouldn't even bother getting a new one, thanks to Dan Savage I have a worthy cause to donate this one to, and really, it'd be nice to have one that didn't look like the outside had been eaten away by acid.

So, does anyone have any recommendations? I'd prefer something durable but not too expensive, with a decent buzz (but not Hitachi Magic Wand-strong, that's a bit much). And cool-looking if possible. ;)

Your post lacks the specifics necessary to make a very specific recommendation, such details as areas targeted, be they internal or external and the like. Whether you prefer coil types, which can have faster speed choices, or slower buzzing may also be a significant factor and each has advantages. Whether you prefer spot or broader area coverage. Knowing if there's a desire to use it on a male and where may also be of value. Is there any requirement to be cord free or resist water in shower or bath quantities? Is portability and small or tiny size accompanied by low noise levels a desirable trait?

What I actually recommend is a trip to Good Vibrations for hands-on testing of the vibrating merchandise on a visit to SF. If your local store doesn't offer this, you're deprived.

If you haven't tried a coil type yet and favor or might favor point external contact I suggest that you experiment with a Wahl coil (http://www.goodvibes.com/Item--i-1-1-AC-BE02--m-34) type.

Sorry, I guess I was looking for broader recommendations, rather than something specifically customized, since I've only ever owned a couple in the past. I didn't figure I had a sex-toy salesperson reading. ;)

Unfortunately, I don't have that kind of service at the local shop. Maybe I should take a trip to SF...

I've heard a lot of good things about the Wahl, especially about how quiet it is. Though I've often wondered whether plug-in vibrators kill the mood when you're fumbling around for the outlet behind the bed...

An extension cord may have practical value... :)
