Revel Body Sonic Vibrator – Accessories Review

I was lucky enough to be able to try the entire kit from Revel Body, thanks to the glorious Shevibe.com. Since the four extra tips, and travel case, are sold separately I wanted to talk about them separately.

Accessory Tips “Sold Separately”

Nico is a nipple-shaped tip that I thought would work best for me, but still didn’t – it’s a little too pinpoint and didn’t transmit as much oomph as I needed.  I thought that the decreased surface area would mean that the vibrations would concentrate more, but this somehow didn’t happen. The Nico and original tips almost feel like they have the same level of intensity, just the Nico is more pinpoint with the stimulation. The fact that it sticks out a little might make it more user-friendly for some – for others who are inclined to apply pressure and movement, this isn’t the tip for you. It’s very sensitive to being “knocked off balance” so to speak, and the vibrations will stop easily if any pressure is applied to the side of the tip.  The design flaw is baffling to me, but I think it’s the nub of pliable silicone on top of the solid core that dampens the vibrations down to compensate wrongly for the concentrated tip.

Fawn is the dreaded “bristle”¹, which I think should never be mixed with a vibrator, as it’s either a tickle or a painful itch, but Fawn managed to transmit the most intensity on levels 3 & 4. Unfortunately, it was the wrong sort of intensity. It was too much. Lower/higher levels of vibrations with it were too little intensity for me. The bristles (I don’t know what else to call them, but I know bristles just sounds harsh), despite being a pliable, soft silicone, don’t translate to a softer feel in use. That’s why it delivers the most intensity. I would say that it feels 2 times more intense than the included tip – it should, since you’re feeling 26 tiny little heads needling you. It’s very ouchy on levels 2, 3 and 4. Level 1 is somewhat intense and thuddy; this tip transmits the most sensation on level 10 when compared to all the other tips, but it still isn’t much to write home about.

The Ever tip is like a shallow, inverted Devo hat, and just awful with my buried clit and fat labia. I don’t quite understand the design. It is  softer tip, though, than Nico but not really enough to matter since you’ll never be applying enough pressure in use to appreciate it. In fact, on the lower end of the scale, the more pulsating levels, Ever doesn’t feel soft at all. It feels more intense than the included tip. The concave design might be designed to gently surround a clitoris, but it’s too shallow to really achieve that for me.  The ridges are confusing to me, because usually ridges on a sex toy are provided for extra stimulation during rubbing/movement. You can’t do that with the Revel Body so……moot point.

Cona is frightening to someone with a buried/innie clit. If you have the patience to be super-exact with your vibe placement, and the ability to hold it suspended in the exact same position all during masturbation, then Cona might work for you. Well actually, that statement technically applies to a lesser degree for the Revel Body on the whole, but Cona needs you to be more exact. And the silicone is pliable, but just not quite soft enough to work out for surrounding the clit and burying in flesh.  Since the silicone needs to be firm enough to stand up, so to speak, the soft and squish that it does have is lost when considering how the piston moves and such.  It feels like a cop-out, like I’m trying to spin gold out of straw by using the “great for nipples” line, but it seems that this tip would work better for nipples than clits.

Travel Case

The gray material reminds me of school backpack material. Textured, thick, a bit shiny. There is a layer of padding, too, and I think that the case is probably water-resistant. I’m not exactly sure why….in case you need to pack it away while it’s still damp from cleaning, I guess? That would explain the air vent thing on the bottom of the case. The inside is hot pink. If you’re not a fan of pink….well…..you’re shit out of luck with the entire Revel Body line, I guess. The drawstring pouch is actually built in to the top portion of the case and is meant to hold the travel charger cord and plug.

The case would make a lot more sense to me if it contained a magnetic barrier of some sort. Jewelry did still want to cling to the case if I added in an extra accessory tip, but only with that added tip. Still, though, with all of their warnings about not having the Revel Body near anything electronic, a safety lining would have made me feel a lot better.

Since you already have the base unit, and it comes with the same USB wall charger bit, I’m not sure why they include an extra one. The cord is really nice, an industry first – covered in fabric, which really increases the durability of it. Unfortunately, all the problems I had getting the unit to make contact consistently and properly on the large base charging unit are worse with just the little fob. Even when holding the orb, I have to try a few times before the lights blink. And then if I set it down, it get easily gets knocked off course by just a hair, just enough to cut the charging connection.

I remember that one thing that drew me to wanting to review something from the Vida line from Topco was the included packaging² – the roll pouch and the zippered case. Until I got it in my hands and saw the Topco shitty quality screaming through every aspect of it. Many aspects of the Revel Body Travel Case are well done – the lining is nice, there is padding, the drawstring pouch portion is nice. The zipper is a bit on the thick and clunky side, but not as bad as the zipper on the case of the Vida Lussaria. My main issue with the quality of the construction of this case is at the bottom. See how it looks uneven? It doesn’t want to sit upright when the vibrator is in it. It’s crushed down on one side. I thought at first it was just from being packed in a box, but it hasn’t worked itself out, it was poorly constructed. This could just be my case, and very well may not happen for you. It doesn’t truly affect the purpose, just how it stands on its own.

Currently, the tips retail for $19.99 each on Shevibe. I’m told that the travel case will be for sale very shortly!

Once again, thanks to Shevibe and Revel Body for providing me with all of this review for you all!
