quite liked the packaging of this product - small, compact and I could see the actual vibe through it. The vibe itself was a small peach coloured octopus - werid huh? As it was called the 'Screaming Octopus' I was hoping that it was meant to make me scream and wasn't just a really noisy vibe!!
What was the item like in action?
In action it wasn't a particularly noisy vibe, just a soft buzz. Unforunately this is what it gave out too, a little too soft for my liking. There is a bullet in the body of the 'octopus' and then it's tentacles sit over your clit or nipple or wherever you want to use it. It actually felt quite nice but after the first go the vibration wasn't really intense enough to go again. It was battery operated and came with a battery in, it also said that it was waterproof but I didn't try this out. There was also a 'dangly bit' that felt quite nice when it came into contact with my body but, again, it looked like something out of Alien!
Did the item make you feel sexy?
To be honest the idea of having octopus tentacles over my clit didn't really turn me on! The material it was made out of felt nice though and the sensation was ok so I tried not to think about the 'tentacle' side of things! Using it definately turned me on but left me feeling a bit frustrated.
What reaction did the item acheive - personally to you or with other parties?
The person I showed it to was as put off as I was by the octopus side of things. He was also a bit frustrated, as I was, when it didn't do the job very well!
Any other comments?
As far as bullets go this one was ok. It would be good for getting someone int he mood or maybe even for a first orgasm but if you try for anymore, it may not be intense enough as there is no speed control.
How could this item be improved upon?
A speed control would make it quite a good toy to have, also it looking less octopus-like would make it much more attractive!
Would you recomend this item to a friend?
I probably wouldnt recommend this, there are other bullet-type toys out there with a speed control which are more enjoyable.
Do you have any hot tips for usage with this item?
Don't just limit use of this to the clitoris, test it all over the body. Also it's waterproof - but I don't know if it's sumbmerge-proof.

This is a tiny vibrating rubber octopus, which is a cracking idea. It looks great, cute and unassuming, and the rubber was good and soft. The packaging was pretty good too - a clear plastic box which showed off the octopus's cute face. It does have a picture of a couple on it, though, who don't seem to be using the product.
Because it looked so cute I hoped it would be impressive. Certainly, its size and softness left me optimistic and eager to try it out.
What was the item like in action?
Well, it's called the "Screaming Octopus" but it didnt really lead to much screaming. It only has one speed, which isn't really fast enough, and it's hard to work out where the best vibrations are coming from. The tentacles do tingle, as the box says, but it's more of a pleasant sensation than one which would produce a screaming orgasm.
It is waterproof, but a decent showerhead would produce more sensation that the octopus.
Did the item make you feel sexy?
Because it's cute and unassuming, it's quite fun to play with. It's certainly good for putting a sexy smile on your face and perhaps getting things going, but it's never going to be the focus of any sex session.
What reaction did the item acheive - personally to you or with other parties?
We tried it externally and internally, but it produced nothing more than some mild vibrations. The problem is that it just isn't powerful enough. But because it is very small, and doesnt look like a vibrator, it is perfect for taking out and about in a handbag.
Any other comments?
It's not likely to find its way into out regular rotation, because it just isn't varied or strong enough. But it is good fun and it is versatile.
The vibrating tentacles are actually quite nice as a massage toy, so it's not just all about the sex!
How could this item be improved upon?
A more powerful motor would make the toy far better. The ability to alter speed would help too, but apart from that it's pretty good. The pacakging was very descriptive about how to make it work and how to change the battery.
Would you recomend this item to a friend?
Only because it is quite fun - a novelty sex toy with limited effectiveness.
Do you have any hot tips for usage with this item?
We used it as a vibrator during sex, and also for foreplay. Because one of the tentacles are really long, we also tried inserting it into the vagina but that didn't really acheive much. Using it as a massage toy was also quite cool, as was using it in the shower. It didn't need any lube.

i was very excited when i first opened the packet and saw what was inside as ive always wanted to try one of these. It came in a cute little plastic box, the description on the box said waterproof with tingle tentacles thats was all and a picture of a naked couple kissing. This is only a mini vibrator fits in the palm of ur hand and the tentacles are very soft rubber, i couldnt wait to get started as the power of the vibrator felt so strong, to be honest i thought it was that powerful it actually hurt my finger
What was the item like in action?
i first tried it without turning the vibrator on just to get a feel of it, the soft tentacles over the clit felt lovely i was expecting to be in for a good ride. To say the octopus is small it was very over loud which i didnt expect. Once id turned the vibrator on i didnt find it as exciting as before, at one point i thought i was perhaps using it wrong so i went on the website to read up on it, i was disappointed cos the vibrator was really powerful and with 8 tentacles i was expecting a wicked orgasm, but by the time id built up to one my fingers were killin me from the vibration, i found it very figgly to hit the right spot
Did the item make you feel sexy?
i was very turned on using it without it actually bein switched on, i found i got a better reaction from the tentacles without the vibrator, the soft tentacle over the clit really got me goin but once switched on i didnt get it to hit the spot
What reaction did the item acheive - personally to you or with other parties?
i didnt share this one with anyone else, my first reaction was wow and couldnt wait to give it a whirl, but after use and suffering vibration white finger lol i wasnt that impressed, there was alot of messing about to try and hit the right spot
Any other comments?
i have always wanted to try one of these and never got round to buying one,its not a product id tell my friend to rush out and buy. I would use the product again id like to try it in the bath to see if that makes it more exciting and less noisy. This is a very powerful mini vibrator and very handy to keep in ur bag or pocket for when needs be, it just didnt work for me
How could this item be improved upon?
for me personally i think there could be less vibration in the octopus and more in the tentacles, and for a tiny thing it is extremly loud. The octopus has a long tentacle on the head but to be honest i dont know why its there cos it didnt nothing for me i really couldnt work out what it was supposed to do
Would you recomend this item to a friend?
no
Do you have any hot tips for usage with this item?
holding all the octopus over the clit is quite exciting and a turn on, but if u press it down to hard u lose some of the vibration, i dont have any hot tips for this one but i would be interested in hearing how other people used it so i could get some more ideas for myself. The thing i didnt get to try was in the bath maybe that would have been more interesting

The item arrived and our first impression was that this could be fun. It came in a clear cube container about 6cm square with a card in the back which was red in color with mini Vibrator writen on it. The packaging was ok you could see what you were getting.
What was the item like in action?
When we got the mini Octopus out it was rubbery to feel with little nobbly bits on the tentacles. Then we turned the thing on to start and have some fun but we were very disappointed because you could hardly feel it vibrating so it was a flop and soon got discarded so we could get down to business.
Did the item make you feel sexy?
This item was a flop so it did not turn us on, but the thinking about useing it did put us in the mood for sex. It did not make me feel more attractive towards my partner or more sexually confident. This item did nothing for us as you could hardly feel it vibrating.
What reaction did the item acheive - personally to you or with other parties?
What a flop was the reaction from both of us, my partner gave a very negative reaction because you build your self up expecting to have some fun you could imagine the tentacles vibrating around a nice hard nipple then not being able to feel it is a big let down. we did show it to a few friends and there reaction was just the same as ours.
Any other comments?
This item is a novalty vibe and in our opinion not much use,if you take the little vibrating engine out of the Octopus it seems powerful enough to do some good but as soon as you put it back inside the Octopus all the power seems to go. I think it would be nice if it smelt nice then i would put it on the dash of the car.
How could this item be improved upon?
If you could feel it vibrating you could have some fun with it the rubber deadens the vibrator a bit like a shock absorber.
Would you recomend this item to a friend?
No
Do you have any hot tips for usage with this item?
None that i can think of.
