Review:

When I first got this toy in the mail from Roger I was honestly a tad offended. After all it’s called “Beginner’s Beaver.” What the fuck? I take a little time off from reviewing and suddenly my expert status is revoked and I am bumped back down to beginner? My feathers were quite ruffled. Then I noticed that this toy is waterproof and instantly forgive Rog. He knows (though not from first hand experience) that I am super fond of any sort of play that can take place under the warm (or cool) spray of my shower head. So, crisis of identity averted, I put the toy away until I had some time to fire up the shower and test it in its intended (at least in my mind) environment.

Pipedream’s Beginner’s Beaver is a pretty basic toy. It has the familiar “rabbit” design. Who exactly decided that we ladies like to have small woodland critters nibbling at our clits during rounds of self-love? I’m not entirely sure that I would have made the connection myself, but if I ever meet that person I would like to buy them a beverage because the combination of penetration and gentle (or not) clitoral flicking has given me hours (and hours) of fun.

The purple shaft on this toy is decent thickness. It’s enough to feel without stretching anything out. It is listed as six inches, but that is the total length not including the base. With the clitoral protrusion cutting into the insertable size, this baby gives only about four inches of useable thrust. That’s not exactly what I’m looking for in a real penis and even as a toy it’s a little less than I would hope for. However, it is enough to get the job done thanks to the little friend he’s got peeking up around the corner.

As the name would indicate, the animal at play down in my fun zone is a beaver. Not to be nitpicky, but don’t beavers have flat, broad tails? This guy has a short round one. I hate to say I, but it looked like I was staring down at a mouse. What the guy looks like is not nearly as important however as what he can do with that tiny little outstretched tongue.

I took the Beginner’s Beaver into the shower with me and was pleased to see that they haven’t messed too much with the basic controls or design. It has a nice wrist strap to make sure there are no awkward drops. The base twists to control the multi-speed vibration. The vibration offered here is strong enough to get the job done. High speed isn’t quite as strong as I usually like it, but given my choice I would turbo charge my Pocket Rocket. Without the ability to penetrate too deep, the clitoral buzz factor was huge here and the Beginner’s Beaver has more than enough power to take care of business. (Given my love of super powerful vibration consider yourself well covered unless you need to strap a belt sander to yourself down there.)

The design of the beaver is just about perfect. As mentioned a few extra inches on the shaft would have been great, but the beaver’s little tongue hit the spot just perfectly. When I had the BB buzzing along nicely I settled in under the water. I have a nice ledge along the side of my shower that is just perfect to put a foot on while I ….work, yes work hard to bring you quality reviews like this. The warm water sprayed my chest and ran over my naughty bits as the beaver did his best to drive me steadily insane. In a matter of moments, he did just that and a while later, he did it again.

The Beginner’s Beaver cleans up easily with soap and water and the wrist strap makes it easy to hang from the shower head for easy storage. (Just don’t forget to move it when you have your parents stay. That’s another story for another time.)

I wouldn’t say that this is the best “critter” vibe I have ever tried. The shaft doesn’t rotate, the multi-speed options are somewhat limited and I could use another two inches of length, but those complaints are minor. They certainly didn’t stop me from having a great time with the beaver. (Three great times if anyone is counting.) It is a well designed toy that gets the job done. Try it, you’ll like it.
