You have already read a lot about the creation of the Whoop.de.doo vibrator and its designer Anica Marešová – we were at its launch. You’ll even come across an article by us in which I describe testing the prototype. But although I tried, I couldn’t find a review of the real product anywhere. So when I received one piece from Anika, it was my duty to review it:)
Luxury Whoop.de.doo vibrator – just for me
I own number 231 of the second edition vibrators (the first one just got dusty, so the second one had to come in). This number probably won’t do you any good in practice, but the paper card (certificate of originality) with the handwritten number and Anička’s signature looks very good to me. Or rather, it has a very good effect on my vanity – I am not the owner of some no name piece. I have the number 231 and nobody else has this number:) And this in my eyes takes the brand (or a particular product) one level higher.
And now for the review…
You get the vibrator in a nice red and white foam box. This box is two parts and held together by a rather strong magnet. Once opened, you have the toy itself in one part and the charger, user manual, Swiss cotton bag and the aforementioned certificate of origin in the other.
The box is simple in appearance – you won’t find anything unnecessary on it. But when you look at it in more detail, you’ll find that it’s not as perfect as it first appears. Simply put, the millimetres don’t quite fit exactly and the paper is unevenly applied to the foam. It looks terrible like this, but when you consider that the box is made by hand (and not by some machine controlled by a computer), you put this imperfection behind you. Plus, they’re relatively microscopic imperfections on the packaging that most people throw away anyway 🙂 But I wouldn’t choose red as a base for the aid – it stains the edge slightly and doesn’t come off.
Getting to the vibrator
When you want to take the toy out of the box, pull the ribbon and the vibe will slide up. I honestly love it when you can see on a product that someone really thought about it.
And you can see that someone has thought about the shape too – the vibe is simple, smooth, no unnecessary protrusions or other such nonsense – but it has long been known that there is beauty in simplicity. Moreover, it fits perfectly to a woman’s (my) body. And thanks to its smooth shape, it’s comfortable in the vagina – it doesn’t press, it doesn’t scratch… it’s so natural:) I guess the consultation paid off – Anice M. consulted gynaecologists and also a tester – and I was really impressed with the shape when I tested the prototype:)
What do you get in the package?
- Whoop.de.doo vibrator
- Charger
- Swiss cotton tool wrap
- Instructions for use
- Certificate of Origin
The vibrator feels nice to the touch too, but not as much as Lelo’s Elise. It lacks that velvety layer that makes you want to cuddle with the toy:D It is made of white medical grade silicone (I always write about the benefits of silicone, so I’ll let it slide here), which is a great material, but it catches dust, which is awfully visible on the white one. So you should wash your vibrator before every use (and after, of course)… which you should do with all toys:)
The Whoop.de.doo has a total of 3 motors in an all-silicone body, yet it retains some degree of flexibility…but you can’t expect to bend it completely:)
You turn the toy on (and off) by long pressing both buttons. I like that the buttons aren’t marked with the classic + and –. Anička chose one and three dots, which is much clearer to the touch and I don’t have to think long and hard about what each button actually means. Of course, the truth is that when the vibrator is in action and I am distracted, I am not able to perceive any buttons:D
The buttons are also used to switch between modes, intensities, or frequencies. The mode is changed by long-pressing the selected button, and the intensity or frequency is increased (or decreased) with a quick click. Well… I had a problem with this control back with the prototype – I found it illogical and did it backwards every time. And honestly, even after practicing for a few months, I didn’t learn it. In fact, even my friends who tried the controls found it confusing… On the other hand, they all had experience with other vibrating toys, so (like me) they had a certain pattern learned. Newbies will probably be fine:)
What’s inside?
The Whoop.de.doo vibrator has a total of 3 modes:
- Easy baby
- Wave
- Oh, my whoop!
I’m not going to describe the individual vibrations, you can find that in the instructions or try them out for yourself. Anyway, my favourite is (oddly enough) Oh, my whoop!, where it whirs all three motors without a break. Then you just set the intensity and start playing. If you know my reviews, you know that I’m not really into vibrators. There are only a few pieces (I can count them on the fingers of one hand) that can make me come. And that includes a piece from Whoop.de.doo. I like it just on its own, but the biggest bombshell is when my boyfriend uses it on me – that’s when the ecstasy hits:)
When you want to play, you have to charge
The new vibrator is discharged and locked so that when transported to you it doesn’t get unwantedly turned on. You only need a charger for both – the first charge unblocks the whole toy.
An LED will inform you about the battery status, which is between the buttons (if it doesn’t flash, you can’t see it:). I’m not going to go into what each blink means here – this review is long enough without that, and I’d more or less be copying the text of the package insert you get with this toy anyway.
The WDD has a magnetic charger, which fits nicely on both sides. It doesn’t matter if you attach the charger to the gadget one way or the other, the magnets stick. Which is a really big plus – I was recently annoyed at one piece, where the charger only held in one direction.
The other end of the charger has a USB connector. I also consider that a big plus, at least you don’t have an unnecessarily large charger lying around your house taking up too much space. You can charge directly from USB or use the socket end, it doesn’t matter – just watch the maximum current – it is 500 mA, to avoid damaging the battery. I also tried charging it from my computer, but that didn’t work… or rather, it was so slow that I lost patience with it 😀
I see I’ve gone on and on again, so so you don’t get bored, here’s a summary: The Whoop.de.doo vibrator is very elegant and luxurious, a piece that is guaranteed to please any woman. The price is also quite luxurious, but when you know the story behind the development, it’s not that bad – quality vibrators are just expensive… and this one is quality and fancy:)
