Are you ready to spice things up? The folks at Emojibator are at it again, this time taking the Chili Pepper straight from your text messages and into your hands (or into your vag?).
Actually, I didn’t even realize the chili pepper was an emoji until I did a quick scroll through all the emojis my phone had to offer. Geez, I didn’t realize there were so many emojis! I don’t even know what I would ever even use most of them for! Occasionally I’ll text people random cute animals, but beyond that… I’m an emojinoob. Why in the world would I need to send someone a mushroom? Or a Cactus? Or an emoji of a floppy disc?!? Back in my day you just sent your BFF a “O.o <3 :p” and called it a day, now it’s like there is a whole secret language that I am totally oblivious to.
I feel old. Again. Thanks Emojibator.
Shortly after I finished my review of the Eggplant, Emojibator let me know that there was also a Chili Pepper and asked if I would be interested in reviewing that as well. Uh, duh. Of course I want to! It’s a freakin’ Chili Pepper! I don’t know, there is something about sex toys shaped like food that really speaks to me. Although, much of what I had to say about the Emojibator Eggplant holds true for the Chili Pepper as well. But, I will go ahead and write this review assuming you have just stumbled in from God knows where and haven’t been here all along, hanging on my every word, devouring my every review.
When the Chili Pepper arrived I was satisfied that it was as adorable as I had imagined it would be. The little pepper measures in at a petite 4.76 inches, just a bit longer than the palm of my hand. It is covered in 100% silicone that has a beautifully smooth matte finish. It is also lint resistant, which I can’t praise highly enough. There is nothing I hate more than constantly picking lint and hair off my silicone sex toys. As long as you screw the cap on tightly, the Chili Pepper is also completely submersible, which means you can run it under water to clean up and take it into the bath or shower with you! I personally have not tried it in the tub yet, for some reason I find achieving orgasms while in water really hard.
Before getting down to business, the first thing you need to do is unscrew the cap and remove the little bit of paper that stands between you and your vibrating Chili Pepper. Once removed, toss that bit of paper aside and screw the cap on again tightly. The stem of the Chili Pepper acts as the on/off button (because of course it does), just give it a push and the Chili Pepper should spring to life! Continuing to push the stem will cycle you through the Chili Peppers various settings, first the three constant vibrations ranging from what I will call low to high, and then the remaining seven vibration patterns. The patterns aren’t really anything to write home about, pretty basic vibration patterns that I ignore almost entirely. When you are ready to turn the Chili Pepper off, you can either cycle through all ten vibration settings or just hold down on the stem for a couple of seconds and the Chili Pepper will shut itself off. Very easy to control, although I hate when I accidently overshoot the setting I want and have to cycle through everything again to get back to what I want. Excessive button pushing? Ain’t nobody got time for that.
The Emojibator Chili Pepper runs on four LR44 batteries, whichare included. However, one thing I really hate about battery powered toys is they usually don’t come with any sort of travel lock. Sure, I could remove the batteries… but I am SUPER bad at keeping track of both screws and batteries. Don’t remove those things and trust I’ll be able to find them again later when they are needed again. I am reminded of how annoyed this makes me because when I went to use my Chili Pepper just now, it wouldn’t turn on. I’m guessing the poor pepper turned itself on in my backpack somewhere between the photo studio and my house and ran itself out of juice. Frustrating. This really isn’t anyone’s fault but my own, but battery powered toys and I have a tenuous relationship.
On the bright side, that is how quiet the Chili Pepper is, even turned on and humming away, I never heard it in the backpack full of sex toys I currently have besides my bed. Even on its highest intensity, the Emojibator Chili Pepper remains fairly quiet, so if being discreet is your thing, not only does the Chili Pepper not look like a sex toy, you aren’t likely to hear it behind closed doors (or zipped backpacks)!
When it comes to the quality of the vibrations themselves, I am really left wanting more. Like the Eggplant, the Chili Pepper comes equipped with a mid-level intensity with a high-pitched buzz. I really had my fingers crossed that the Chili Pepper would improve upon the Eggplant and provide me with a deeper, more rumbly experience. But, sadly this wasn’t the case. The Chili Pepper is buzzy, although it is not the irritating, skin-numbing sort of vibrations… more like what you would expect from a battery powered vibrator. I don’t hate it, I don’t love it… I’m pretty neutral about the whole thing. I have no trouble bringing myself to orgasm with it, however it takes longer than I would like (I have no patience, I want an orgasm and I want it NOW), longer than it would with something more intense and rumbly. If you haven’t become completely spoiled by something super-charged like a Doxy (like I have), the Chili Pepper might be more than enough for you.
The Chili Pepper also features a curved, squishy silicone… tail? Would you call that a tail? I’m going to call it a tail. The bottom half of the Chili Pepper is squishy and flexible and makes it possibly for me to comfortably add a fair amount of pressure onto my clit, helping me to direct some of those weaker vibrations a bit deeper. When I try to use it as an impossibly tiny dildo, the flexible tip just grazes against my g-spot in a nearly pleasant way.
My recommendation remains much the same as the Eggplant. I really enjoy the quirky novelty of the Emojibator Chili Pepper. It is conceptually quite fantastic, it is playful and it is a toy that makes sense without even knowing what an emoji is. If you hand me a Chili Pepper, I’m going to assume you are trying to say that I’m hot. It works, I don’t need to even know what an emoji is to enjoy it. I’ll admit, when I first saw the Eggplant, I scoffed at it. But now, I’m kind of obsessed, I really hope Emojibator keeps turning emojis into sex toys, because I want to collect them all. They are something I want to own, just for the sake of owning them. However, I would love to see Emojibator continue to improve upon their design, I’d love to see some more power added behind their toys and possibly even giving us the option of having it be rechargeable. I think Emojibator has a neat thing going and I am excited to see more from them in the future! But, do I recommend the Chili Pepper right now? Well, power hungry people will likely dislike the Chili Pepper, as well as those who seek out the deeper, more rumbly quality of vibrations. But for a budget friendly, battery powered vibrator I think most will be happy with the middling intensity that it has to offer. A fun gift for your favorite sexting buddy. Or maybe you can purchase it as an ice-breaker to let your partner know that you are ready to spice things up in the bedroom. The overall quality of the toy is impressive, even if the power is lacking.
