Lovehoney Juno Rechargeable Music Activated Vibrating Egg
I am a very lucky girl, I have both the Juno Knicker Vibe and this Juno Egg so I thought I’d make this review about the specifics of the Egg but also how well the different Juno toys work together.
The Egg first; charging is very simple. The toy comes with a split USB cable that plugs in very easily to the bullet of the Egg and the side of the remote when you just slightly pull down their little silicone jackets and they charge simultaneously from the one USB point. I love this and very much favour toys and devices that have rechargeable remotes as it makes life so much easier - wish my car key and it’s tile fob were rechargeable! While charging, both the remote and the bullet flash and once fully charged remain lit.
To activate the toy, again it is very easy. A long press of the large remote button to activate the remote onto audio mode, a blue light comes on and as soon as you then activate your Egg’s bullet vibe with a press of the button they are synced. Pop it in and you’re good to go. On audio mode the light on the remote is blue; further presses on the button take you to a constant vibe and then patterns consisting of pulses and revving, the light on the remote is then white and flashes in time to the pattern so if the person controlling it isn’t the person using it they still know what is going on. All the patterns’ strengths can be adjusted by the plus and minus button on the remote and stay set to whatever strength you’ve selected as you cycle through the patterns. The bullet has powerful vibes for it’s size. All good so far.
The casing of the Egg is where I’m slightly let down. Now this is my fault for not checking the size specifications but I’m greedy and I like to feel filled. This is a very narrow “egg”. It is a nice silicone material and the retrieval cord works well but I just want it to be significantly bigger. Having said that, it would make it an excellent choice for someone new to toys who wants to wear something not too imposing out.
Now in use, I am definitely a big fan of the audio mode - I like not having a regular pattern and instead reacting to what is going on around me. Initially I was just wearing it around the house and for starters I will say that it drastically improves having to do the housework. Certainly makes the to and fro of the vacuum cleaner a lot more fun as you push it back and forth while wearing the remote. With music playing, yes, there is a slight delay but I’m okay with this and in a busy bar or music venue it is a lot less noticeable than with music playing at home.
These types of toys are okay for around the house and running short errands but I’m never going to climax from an Egg and their real appeal is for out and about foreplay and setting the mood for when you get home. This is where the Juno toys also work really well together. One remote can be synced to multiple toys so I can wear both the Egg and the Knicker Vibe out to local bars and my OH can control both from one remote giving a fully rounded internal and external experience. I do rather feel I should get the cock ring as well so my OH can feel the fun too!
The Egg being internal is significantly quieter in use than the Knicker Vibe so can be used with less background noise though it is still not silent and you might struggle with the stronger vibes in a quiet restaurant but in a busy bar crack on with no worries with either option.
Once done, clean up is simple. The bullet is waterproof and both silicone jackets are easy to remove for a quick scrub. Once dry, the little bag that comes with the toy is sturdy and the perfect size for the Egg, the remote, their charging cable and the little instruction leaflet. Ideal and not very space consuming.
Overall, I love the working and the concept of this Egg. The noise activation mode is great, definitely my favourite mode and lasts, at least from my testing, much, much longer than the 40 minutes stated. The syncing has never failed for me and the remote’s range is still good a couple of rooms away however it still isn’t my Egg of choice because it is just too small for me. If you want to try one of the Juno toys I’m afraid my recommendation is the Knicker Vibe which has become my favourite night out toy and is also the perfect clitoral vibe shape at home which I’m afraid the Egg is not.
Overall Rating: 4 out of 5 stars
Pros: Great range, excellent battery life on audio mode and a lot of fun to use.
Cons: Too small.
Bottom Line: A great concept that works well but isn’t as effective as the Juno Knicker Vibe.
