Having previously enjoyed the Intimate Massagers Duo set from Philips, I was curious to see how well this single unit matched up, touted as an improved version of a single unit predecessor also by Philips. The last set took 24 hours to charge. The blurb tells you it takes 4 hours for this new model to charge, although I can tell you it took about 2 hours; there is a light which is on while it is charging, and this turns itself off once the massager is fully charged. I was also pleased that the adaptor plug was a UK standard one this time, so no need for any extra socket adaptors as was provided last time.

The noise emissions level is also a lot lower than before, so great news for those of us in shared accommodation or with nosey children/in-laws in the same house. It's very quiet although provides very powerful vibrations.

There are two buttons, one with a plus and one with a negative to increase or decrease the intensity of the vibrations, and also a button to change the type of vibration; eg the pattern. There is something to suit everyone, from a gentle soothing massage which could be used as relief for aches and pains, to full throttle turbo vibrations which brings a whole other form of relief.

Also worth noting is that these can be used with oils and lubricants although we found them to be smooth enough to glide over the skin without the need for any help.
