I've been looking forward to this review for a very long time. Sexshop 365 were very kind and sent over a Hitachi Magic Wand (aka HV-250R) to review. The Magic Wand is a very famous vibrator and has been around for a very long time. Not many shops continue to sell the Hitachi Magic Wand but should more stock it or should it be retired? I just had to find out...
This is what they had to say about the product:
You say vibrator, we say Hitachi: the #1 selling vibrator, the one that legions of women have stashed under their beds, the cream of the vibrating crop. It delivers strong , reliable vibrations to the clitoris (it's not designed for insertion, flexible head measures 7 1/2" around), its long arm can be positioned easily between partners or used comfortably alone, and it lasts for years.
Recommended by Dr. Laura Berman, a sex educator and therapist: A great choice for novices and the more experienced, especially if genital sensation or arousal has become an issue. Many find the shape reassuring because it could just as easily be a back massager as a vibrator, and the stimulation is quite strong. I often recommend the Magic Wand as a great beginning vibrator.
As you might expect from a product that was first released in the 1970s, the packaging does look a bit dated. The box measures around 35cm / 14 inches which is way longer than I expected. I thought the Magic Wand was quite a compact toy.
The packaging features both men and women using the Magic Wand as a general massager. There's no inclination that this could also be used as a sex toy. In fact, the original use of the Wand was as a medical device rather than as a sex toy.
The Magic Wand is quite innocent looking. It doesn't scream vibrator or sex, making it ideal for houses with prying kids or nosey visitors. To the untrained eye, it's a body massager perfect for relieving aches and tensions.
The actual Wand is around 30cm / 12 inches in length including the bulbed head (around 6cm / 2.5 inches in diameter). It comes with a lengthy 6 foot long power cord - that's right, this baby is mains powered. No fiddly batteries, no need to change the batteries just as you approach an orgasm! The cord does have a US plug on it which means you'll need an adapter. Sexshop 365 bundle in US to UK plug adapter for free.
There's only one switch on the Magic Wand - a power switch along the side of the handle. It's got two settings (fast and slow) as well as "off".
From the second you switch it on you can understand why this is a sex toy preferred by loads of women worldwide. On it's slow speed it throws out 5,000 vibrations a minute - that's over 83 vibrations every second! And that's slow! Crank it up to full speed and you can enjoy 6,000 a minute or 100 every single second.
The vibrating head (the bulb bit at the end) is quite firm. I wasn't sure quite what I expected but thought it would be more of a soft jelly than a firm rubber.
I switched it to slow and then lightly touched my clitoris. WOW! I was in heaven. I find it easy to orgasm with clitoral stimulation which meant I was screaming within seconds of it touching me.
The best thing about the Hitachi Magic Wand (besides the insane amount of power) is that it just goes on and on. This meant I could have multiple orgasms and I did - until I couldn't take any more!
On another day I invited Mr STS into the bedroom with me and we played together. He tied me up and made me orgasm several times over. The restraints weren't enough to stop me from kicking and screaming with so much pleasure. I've not passed out from masturbation before but I'm sure I was close here.
The pleasure is really concentrated and intense. Every time I tried to relax I found I couldn't - I kept tensing up feeling the vibrations pulsate right through me.
Before he finished pleasuring me, he tried tickling my anus with the Wand. That felt so nice I had to clean up (me and the Wand) and try it on him. It's not a toy so it's not aimed at men or women. It's predominately used by women but can also be used by men and by couples.
I got him on all fours and slid the Magic Wand up and down over his anus whilst giving him a handjob. Just like me, he came very quickly which I suspect has more to do with the Magic Wand than it does with my handjob skills!
The Magic Wand is good for 25 minutes of pleasure although the instructions suggest you should leave it for half an hour before using it again after this. I didn't find the 25 minute limit was an issue and reckon most women would orgasm within minutes, if not seconds, using this fantastic vibrator.
Hey, if you've got time left over, it can be used to massage the shoulders, arms, back muscles, loins and legs which is great as you may need a relaxing massage after all that fun! I certainly did.
If you aren't satisfied by battery powered vibrators and you want something extremely powerful, get your paws on one of these. It's perfect for experiencing really powerful orgasms and has been known to help with female ejaculation. If you dream of squirting, this can help.
It's not just for women though. The anus and shaft are perfect for lightly tickling with the vibrating Wand. You'd probably want to avoid the testicles unless you both enjoy intense pleasure.
Oh, and it doubles up as a regular body massager for use on him as well as her.
YES! If you crave powerful explosive orgasms, this is the baby to do it with. It's incredibly powerful and has a wide range of available accessories (including a rather handy Magic Wand Cushion available at Sexshop 365 to help make using it even more fun.
This really is an incredible vibrator and beats all the others hands down for power. It's perfect for female ejaculation practise which is where I'm off now...
