Review: Womanizer Starlet

Thursday, Apr 19th, 2018

Wow, it’s been a few years now, since Womanizer launched their revolutionary new, air-pulse technology. Three years to be exact. So by my estimation, that makes it about a decade ago in terms of sex blogger years. You may not be aware of this but, with the hurried pace and the constant stream of new sex toy releases to keep up with, sex blogger time is sorta like dog years. It moves at a faster pace than every other human on the planet perceives it. Anyway, waaay back in 2015, I recall reading reviews where my fellow sex toy critics raved about a bedazzled, new brand of air pulse technology. Despite all the sassy quips they made, and reservations they held, about the toy’s comically over the top aesthetic and “the lost in translation” meaning of its name.

It was a real hoot, and I was left feeling beyond desperate to try this new method of masturbation!

Three Years Later…

Little did I know, it would be three long years, and eight Womanizer models later before I’d finally have the opportunity to find out what all my fellow sex bloggers had been so giddy about. The original Womanizer W100, has long since been retired and, I’ve missed out on eight, count ’em eight, beautiful Womanizer models. However, since receiving and reviewing the Starlet, I’ve subsequently become privy as to why so many reviewers prefer this brand of air pulse toys above all others.

From my experience with the Starlet alone, I’m willing to wager that the people at Womanizer are dedicated to maintaining a high-quality product. They obviously have more of a quality over quantity approach. As opposed to their well-known copycat competitor, the other German-based, sex toy manufacturer. Who popped up not long after the original Womanizer W100 hit the scene. A brand that is notorious for cranking out new toy designs like they’re going out of style. With quality, at times seemingly not being much more than an afterthought.

I was immediately delighted by how the Starlet comes packaged, in a dramatic, see-through plastic display case. This instantly garnered Womanizer some major bonus points with me. Since this is the most affordably priced toy within the Womanizer’s product line and they still clearly put an effort into creating a quality presentation.

For those who are familiar with all the other Womanizer models, the quickest and easiest way to describe the Starlet is as a simplified, condensed version of the popular, mid-priced model, the Pro40. The next step up in price, to the Starlet.

This toy has what I call a simple and straightforward design. With only one control button on the back to operate all five of its modes. And coming in at just over two inches in total length, the Starlet is plainly a toy of tiny stature, but don’t be fooled by its puny size. This perfectly discreet, pocket-sized toy has a capacity for granting you some amazingly powerful, suction-induced orgasms.

Frankly, I was stunned. I had not imagined this tiny toy being capable of possessing so much gusto.

Keep It In Third

I’ve got to tell ya, friends. If you’re in the market for a toy that provides you with a gentle, subdued sort of stimulation, one that sort of finesses an orgasm, the Starlet is not for you. I repeat the Starlet is not for you.

On the contrary, the Starlet provides a vigorous, brisk build up to an intense sort of orgasm.

If there was an extreme classification for sex toys, the Starlet would fit perfectly into this category. With its signature, air pulse technology’s bold, in your face approach. While appearing to be so dainty, delicate, and sweet, packaged in the smallest most unassuming form. However, don’t be fooled.

Personally, I can only go up to the third speed, and if I go past that then it’s overstimulation city for me, baby. Ow, and that hurts! What makes it all the worse is the discomfort is one of those sickly sweet sorts of pangs, but discomfort, nonetheless. Like sugar on a tooth with a cavity, it evokes a sharp needling type of pain. That makes you want to pull the Starlet away to make it stop.

However, if I remember to keep it at the third-setting or lower I’m in for a fast-paced, steep incline to an amazing climax. It’s a whirlwind of an orgasm, intense, to say the least!

As for loudness, I found the Starlet is much quieter when pressed against my vulva. And then, to me, it sounds a lot like the muffled sound of an idling car engine, sitting outside my window. Strangely enough, I find it gets a lot louder when it’s not in contact with my body. That’s when it becomes more of an idling motorcycle motor.

Hard Not To Love

That increase in sound is just one of three minor annoyances I have with the Starlet, and only because it sadly reduces the overall discreetness of such a perfectly travel-sized toy. And yes, I do have another small bone or two, to pick. One is the lack of a second button, a requirement for a more fine-tuned method of control. And lastly, I have a major gripe with the charging cord being only, like, three inches long. Seriously, that is not an exaggeration! Luckily, it’s not a proprietary dongle and it is a fairly simple cord to replace. Easily found in most department stores, Amazon, or, if you’re like me, you likely already have one like it at home.

When it comes right down to it, so far I’ve not found a single air-pulse toy that I don’t like. While I’ve undeniable enjoyed some more than others. There has not been a single one I have that I outright disapprove of.

They are hard not to enjoy.

With these types of sex toys, once I’ve found my sweet spot of ideal settings, I’m good to go. While that may take some time and experimentation, it is always worth it in the end.

The Final Verdict

The Starlet is a great little toy, and a great way to dip your toe in the Womanizer brand. If you want to try one of their toys out, without spending a lot of cash.
