LOS ANGELES — Fun Factory's Vim wand has been dubbed the "Biggest Quiet Rumbly Vibe" by sex toy educator Susan Bratton as part of her Quiet Vibe Awards.
The Quiet Vibe Awards highlights products that produce minimal sound while in use. According to Bratton, this year's winners’ acoustics ranged from 35-70 decibels.
Fun Factory's latest product, Vim, is the company's first wand-style vibrator and is designed to be "fifty percent quieter than leading wands on the market," noted a rep. Vim also features customizable vibrations, a lightweight and textured handle, flexible neck and an edging program.
Nora Langknecht, Marketing Manager at Fun Factory enthused about the award.
“A seal of approval from Susan Bratton is a badge of honor," she said. "We know that Susan has tried and tested most of the toys in the business, and for her to constantly praise and commend Fun Factory is a testament to the hard work our team put in to ensure the toys are absolute top quality. The new wand has a wide range of rumbly vibrations and programs, and users can micro-adjust the intensity on each one for a personalized experience. Additionally, the unique motor in Vim is entirely new, delivering a weighted rumble rather than an overwhelming tickle, so it feels amazing at any speed.”
For her part, Bratton noted, “My ultimate motivation to find the combination of power and quietude comes from my understanding that many lovers such as autistic or highly-sensitive people are particularly annoyed by sounds. And a full thirty percent of people are auditory in their 'theta state.' Your theta brainwave state is your state of orgasmic bliss, meditation and flow. Loud toys can knock us out of our bliss. And those of us who are kinesthetic — or more connected to the physical feelings of sensuality — can be distracted by noise. Why buy a loud toy when you can have the whisper-quiet pleasure of a best-of-breed tool?”
Fun Factory's Manta vibrating stroker and the Nos vibrating penis ring also received awards in their categories.
