Satisfyer Purple Pleasure — Test & Review
My Verdict
I think the Satisfyer Purple Pleasure is a great little vibrator considering the price range! It's not the most powerful or exciting but it definitely gets the job done. I would say it's best suited to solo play and it would make a fantastic first vibrator. The shape and size make it a little awkward to use during partnered sex and if you require a lot of power or can't stand vibrations in your hand this is isn't the toy for you.

Testing the Satisfyer Purple Pleasure
I liked the look of the Satisfyer Purple Pleasure, but I have to admit, I didn’t have the highest expectations for it. I thought it would be a nice but be a slightly meh pebble shaped clit vibrator. However, I was pleasantly surprised by just how powerful and rumbly it felt when I turned it on! Ok purple pleaser you’ve got my attention! It’s very similar in shape and size to the Je Joue Mimi Soft, but it’s a little stronger, doesn’t have the same squishy tip, and has a raised ABS section on the base. While I don’t find it the most exciting toy out there, for a simple and accessible vibrator, I quite like the Purple Pleasure! It’s got a great range of vibrations, has enough power for most tastes, and is easy to use! I think it’s much more suitable for solo play than partner play, as it can be a little tricky to get and keep in the right spot.
My Personal take on the design of the Satisfyer Purple Pleasure
While I don't find the design particularly exciting, it is perfectly nice! The pebble shape is pleasing to look and hold and it comes in the standard sex toy purple. The shiny ABS plastic at the base is slightly raised to make it easier to hold, but it can get slippery with lube. It can be a little tricky to find the right position, so it's much better suited to solo use rather than being used by a partner or during sex. The pebble shape also makes it a little tricky to hold compared to a wand or standard bullet vibrator.
The Usability of the Satisfyer Purple Pleasure
I would say the Satisfyer Purple Pleasure is pretty easy to use, as it only has one double-ended button that's used to turn the toy on and off and scroll though the 5 speeds and 10 patterns of vibration. I really like that you can scroll forward or backward using the two ends of the button so you don't have to cycle through all the settings. I would say this would make a fantastic first vibrator! I also like that the button is raised, making it easy to find! One thing I did notice is that the magnetic charging doesn't have the strongest connection, so you need to make sure it stays connected and you don't knock it while it's meant to be charging. The light should be flashing to indicate that it's charging.
Quality Verdict
Overall, this feels like a sturdy little vibrator! There are no rattling parts and it holds it's charge well so far! As I mentioned above, my only real gripe is the weak charging connection. Initially, I thought the vibrations felt quite strong and rumbly but they don't feel quite as powerful in use because the vibrations travel throughout the whole toy. This also means they travel into your hand which can be uncomfortable after a while.
The Satisfyer Purple Pleasure: Is it Value for Money?
This is definitely one of the better cheap vibrators out there! At just under $35 the Satisfyer Purple Pleasure is a real steal! If you are looking for a cheap everyday vibrator, a first vibrator, or even a spare to leave at a partner's place, this is a really great option! The only downside is that it doesn't come with a storage bag, so you'll have to source your own!
My take on the Performance
Initially, I thought the vibrations felt quite strong and rumbly but they don't feel quite as powerful in use because the vibrations travel throughout the whole toy. This also means they travel into your hand which can be uncomfortable after a while. That being said, they still feel pretty great and I think the Satisfyer Purple Pleasure will please most tastes, unless you can only get off with the power of a Doxy Wand. It's not the quietest vibrator out there but also definitely not the loudest. If you need an almost silent vibrator this might not be the best choice, but if you don't mind a bit of a buzz I would say this is fine! I would say you are unlikely to hear it through a wall.
Packaging
The Satisfyer Purple Pleasure comes packaged in a colorful, sturdy cardboard box. The cover has a picture of the Purple Pleasure on it and opens up to reveal the toy inside. Overall, I find the Satisfyer packaging appealing and tasteful!
How to care for the materials of the Satisfyer Purple Pleasure
As the Purple Pleasure is made from silicone and ABS plastic is it body-safe and non-porous, which is always a must in my books! It's also waterproof so you can clean it using warm water and fragrance free soap or sex toy cleaner. You should also only use water-based lube as silicone lube can damage the silicone on the toy.
