Synopsis: A very high-end sex machine, whereby a woman mounts it
and rides to orgasm.
Our Review:
The Sybian was
a major purchase without a doubt. I had never dreamed that I would
pay so much for a sex toy. I had also never dreamed that I would
be in a great relationship with someone who would actually
appreciate such an extravagant sex toy (I am sure Sybian would not
want to hear me call it a “toy” but I mean no disrespect to their
product at all).
It comes in a
few pieces:
There is the main piece
that is designed to be straddled by the woman. It is about 14” square and
the top is rounded off (looks kind of like a “Quonset hut”). On the top is a
small “receiver” that you place attachments on and just in front of that is
a raised area that provides clitoral stimulation. It is directional, in that
you orient yourself so that you get vaginal and clitoral stimulation at the
same time.
The main unit also has
the control box connected to it with a 3’ cable so you can sit back and
control it while she is on it or she can control it. It has two on-off
switches on it to turn on rotation and vibration and then a speed control
knob for each as well.
It doesn’t come in
different sizes but SW is 5’3” and it seems to fit her with no problem.
There is also a small
“stool” that comes with it. We were wondering about this at first but it
comes in quite handy. You can place it in front and let her lean over and
rest her arms on it or you can sit on it and put your arms around her. You
can also slide it back and receive oral while she is riding it.
Both pieces are well
padded and covered with black, soft vinyl. The power cord is a separate
piece and it uses a standard 120VAC connection to the unit so it would be
very easy to replace if it was lost (I used a spare one that I had for my
computer when I couldn’t find ours).
First impression was
really good. The quality of workmanship, “fit and finish” of the product was
about as good as you could get. Everything was well constructed, heavy and
solid.
It is designed to use
attachments that come in a multitude of sizes and shapes. Most are shaped to
penetrate the vagina with everything from as big as your finger to
gargantuan. Any attachment that is designed to penetrate can be attached to
the main unit with either a stiff spring that offers some “give” or a stiff
plastic rod that does not flex. We found we like the spring in most of the
attachments as opposed to the rod. The attachments also cover the clitoral
stimulation part of the main unit. Some attachments are smooth where they
contact the clitoris and some have raised, soft rubber “nubs”.
The unit also comes with
a “clitoral wedge”, a piece of hard plastic that attaches to the clitoral
stimulation area of the main unit with Velcro (already installed on the main
unit). It is about 2” long and raises the area of clitoral stimulation by
about ¾”. This is optional and based on personal preference. All of the
attachments will fit over the clitoral wedge so all body contact is still
covered with the soft rubber of the attachment. We found we really liked it
better when the wedge was in place.
There seems to be three
main points of stimulation that you can get from this device, clitoral,
vaginal opening and G-spot. You can get pretty much any combination of the
three or just one (or two) depending on which attachment you use and how you
use the controller.
Clitoral stimulation is
probably the most intense of any device we have ever used, if you want it to
be. The controller has a very wide range of adjustment and is “infinitely”
adjustable from 0 to top speed. S noted how smoothly the speed range changed
which just intensified her orgasms. There were no abrupt changes even if you
turn the speed knob very quickly. I can only think that this comes from
using very high quality controls and motors. On our first try, I slowly
built it up to about half speed over about 3 minutes. S thought it was all
the way up because she had never felt any other device vibrate this fast.
She was in for a surprise as it kept getting faster and faster. As you
become accustomed to the controls, you will learn what feels best for your
partner and you can start getting creative. That is a lot of fun. In our
experience, I can get it up to about half speed and get her very close to
orgasm, then I increase it about 1/10th of a turn. It increases
the intensity but changes just enough that she doesn’t come immediately
(kind of like changing the motion of your tongue at the last minute when you
are giving her oral sex). You do this 4 or 5 times until it is almost up to
full speed and then put it wide open. I thought the neighbors were going to
call the police and the windows of the house were going to shatter. We have
a great sex life but I have NEVER seen her have such an intense orgasm.
Vaginal opening
stimulation is best achieved by the “dildo” shaped attachments. This would
be just like attaching a dildo to something your partner could straddle and
“ride” (like a suction cup based dildo). Also, if the vibration is turned on
it also vibrates up the shaft of the attachment which adds a nice sensation.
The rotation control also provides some vaginal opening stimulation with the
dildo shaped attachments but we found if that she was in the mood for that,
she just rode it up and down while varying the vibration (S claims this is
like her being on top and me having a pocket rocket on my pelvic bone…..VERY
intense).
G-spot stimulation is
also a great feature of this device. Some of the attachments have larger
heads and smaller shafts. Once inserted, the contact to the vaginal opening
is minimal. The tops of these attachments are of varying diameters and have
small, soft “ribs” running from top to bottom. When using one of these, you
turn on the rotation and it spins in small circles inside the vagina rubbing
the “ribs” of the attachment on the g-spot. This is where you will need to
try both the spring and rod inserts to see what she likes best. Again, this
is where the quality of components comes in. Very smooth speed transitions
from fast to slow. Once you find the right combination of attachment size,
rotation speed and type of attachment (spring or rod) this device will
produce some HUGE g-spot orgasms.
There are some other
attachments that are also fun. One is just a soft cover (like the insertion
part was cut off). This can be used for just clitoral stimulation and leaves
her open for either another toy or you from behind. The height of the unit
is great for doggy-style with this attachment. Also, it is a great way for
her to get intense clitoral stimulation while receiving anal sex.
There is a double
penetration insert which is pretty much how you would imagine it. The
vaginal part of this gets the rod for rotation and the anal insertion part
is static.
Some of the larger dildo
type attachments (called “covers”) actually slip on over the medium sized
attachment. You need to use a little lube on the inside of these to get
these on as they are a tight fit. Also, the material of the “covers” is a
little more firm than the other attachments. They don’t “give” as much and
therefore you might need to use one that is a little smaller than you are
used to.
There are two
attachments that we are still working up to. The G-Max is a ball about the
size of a small orange and does just what it names implies, maximum g-spot
stimulation. This one is doable, eventually. The Jumbo “cover” is just plain
huge. We like large toys but this one might be too much even for us,
especially because of the harder material it is made out of.
All in all, it is a
great device that is built so well that you can feel comfortable using for
many, many years. It seems sturdy enough that you might want to leave it in
your will to someone. It could be the first “heirloom” sex device. HA!
We only had one negative
thing to say about this device and it is not about the device itself. Do
NOT, under any circumstances, watch the demo movie that comes with it.
Especially if you want to start using it right then. It looks like poorly
done, 70’s amateur porn and we found it to be an instant cold shower. Bikini
waxing was not in these people’s vocabularies. If you want a good laugh, you
can look at the part that demo’s their Venus 2000 product which is a male
masturbation machine. It is good for a laugh. Not knocking that product at
all (no, I have not tried it) but watching it in action will have you
rolling on the floor.
We have thoroughly
enjoyed this device and will continue to do so for years. It seems to us
that it would also be a great item for a woman that has a hard time having
an orgasm but it would be hard to see someone like that shelling out this
kind of money for it. It seems to be pretty popular with internet porn
companies. They can make the investment once allow different girls to use
brand new attachments so they feel safe. I have seen several amateur porn
sites that use a sybian. At first I thought the girls were faking because it
looked to “over the top” to be real but now that we have had ours for 2
years, I know they are not faking when they are on this thing. |
