Silver Hoof: Gazelle Clitoral Stimulator
DIVERSITY AND IMPROVE YOUR SEXUAL LIFE can be different, and for this, in particular, there are many gadgets - so many that their assortment is easy to get confused. Especially for Wonderzine, various toys, accessories and special tools are regularly tested by a sex blogger, an incorruptible expert and possessor of an excellent sense of humor Tatiana Nikonova.
Gazelle is a small, light and effective vibrator from the Imtoy Zoo series. The entire line of Zoo is a pale pink device with the names of animals, but looking in the spirit of minimalist high-tech. Made of silky silicone with metallic rose gold color finish, controlled both manually and with a mobile app. In Russia, Gazelle is sold at a price of 5000-7000 rubles, and for some reason, stores sometimes rename them to Gazella, so it’s more productive to search by brand name.
Gazelle consists of two parts: the actual vibrating massager with a round head and a removable nozzle with soft silicone "horns". By itself, the massager is suitable for massage in small areas of the body, clitoral stimulation, and even internal. For frictions, the device is completely useless - the form factor is not the same, but in the presence of sensitive zones inside the vibrator head copes well with them. The power of vibration in Gazelle is not outstanding, but it is well suited to women with high sensitivity or dislike for harsh effects. Horned nozzle should be worn if you want additional sensations when stimulating the clitoris or playing with other areas on the body, but never get inside without removing it beforehand, and then you will have to rescue with the help of a specialist.
"Horns" allow you to drive up to the head of the clitoris in an unexpected and pleasant way. For example, it is easy to get an orgasm, without formally touching the clitoris: it is enough to install “horns” on the labia on either side of the clitoris head, turn on the intermittent mode more comfortably and lie down comfortably. There is no need to do anything else, even to move the gadget: stimulation of two points at once is enough to quickly catch a full discharge. The method is suitable for those who love diversity, and those who have the clitoris during stimulation becomes sensitive to pain, so direct stimulation is uncomfortable.
The horned attachment on promotional photos is always worn on the device strictly horizontally along the bottom edge, like hats of harsh Chelyabinsk boys. In fact, it keeps well and if at an angle to wear. It may even be more convenient to hold, because it allows us not to overstrain the wrists of office workers who are familiar with the signs of tunnel syndrome. When putting on it makes sense to keep the toy control button on a straight line between the tip of the device and the point between the "horns": then the button turns out quickly and without looking to find with your thumb if the device is turned to you with the button or the index finger, if it is exactly the opposite .
I must say, the control button is the weakest point in the more than decent design of the Gazelle. It is tiny, almost imperceptible, when the toy is not turned on (but it turns on after switching on), you can only switch all 16 modes in a circle: first, amplification of vibration, then modes with different vibration patterns. That is, if, in search of the strongest vibration, you accidentally press the button once more, you have to either go through all the modes until you reach the right one again, or turn off the device and start increasing the vibration level to the desired one (and be able to stop in time!). Once I missed three times in a row, spat and got my deserved Lelo.
Later it became clear why the vibration even at the highest level looked unconvincing and I automatically pressed the button once again: the device was on its last breath and was ready to discharge. Usually rechargeable toys work on level mode almost all the time, then briefly and subtly reduce the intensity before full discharge. But Gazelle behaves like a device with batteries, gradually reducing the intensity after about 30 minutes of use. If you know about the features, it is not a problem, because you rarely meet the work of a sex device for more than ten minutes. Just put the toy on charge after three to five uses.
Much more questions are caused by the mobile application, the meaning of its existence is not obvious - except that it has a very beautiful screen saver. In the application, you can (but not necessarily) register and specify the mail and nickname, but it is not social and does not allow control of the toy to be given to another user, so the registration looks solely as a transfer of personal data to the manufacturer. You can customize your own modes, for example, change the vibration power of the slider or draw your own pattern, although they are not saved after the application is closed, and each time you start you will have to enter everything anew. You can connect the control mode of the incoming sound, however, the application is very sensitive and responds including to the low-sound sounds made by the gadget itself. You can amplify the vibration by shaking the smartphone: just imagine that you are shaking it with one hand and holding the vibrator with the other - the small Gazelle button suddenly becomes extremely attractive.
You can download any audio track - the device will begin to vibrate to the music, but for some reason, about half of the cases, I disconnected the device and the application together with the audio download. You can upload a video so that the toy vibrates in unison with its sound range, and now everything goes perfectly with the video. The "Rocket" mode gives a sharp increase in vibration, but the button is miniature and non-contrast, getting caught with a lubricated finger is not easy, and requires undue attention. But the most useless function of the application was suddenly also the nicest: when the device is found, the application can rename it even without registration, and the application will always identify the toy by name. I called my "Bunny".
Life hacking and safety:
Gazelle is sold in a large, hard box that doesn’t guess what's inside, and it takes up a lot of space, so it’s better to keep the toy in some kind of fabric bag. It is not included in the kit, look for a suitable container: the metallized tip looks reliable, but it can probably get scratched, and after washing you shouldn’t immediately put the nozzle on the device, and it’s better to fold them somewhere so you don’t look for corners.
To use Gazelle with the Zoo app, you will need a mobile device with Bluetooth functionality. The Android application works with version 4.3 or higher, and iOS from 7.0. The application is free, suitable for all toys in the series and downloaded in Google Play or iTunes. Before buying, check whether the application can be installed on your smartphone or tablet, so that you do not face the limited functionality of the purchased gadget.
Gazelle is charged by magnetic USB-charging, and it is better to connect to the outlet: when connected to a laptop, the toy charges very slowly. The percentage of charge can be viewed in the mobile application.
Do not try to entertain with the nozzle in the water. Though the device is completely waterproof, the vibration nozzle starts to move out when water gets under it (and it falls). In the bath or shower - only with a toy without a cap.
Use water-based lubricants to prevent damage to the silicone device. Before putting on the nozzle, check that there are no lubricant residues on the vibrator head: the nozzle can slide.
Wash Gazelle with warm water and soap or a special cleaner for sex toys. Dry the vibrator head and the nozzle from the inside before putting the nozzle on.
