Gaia Eco Rechargeable Bullet Review

The Gaia Eco Bullet is a little over 2 inches tall and made with a plant-based plastic that is hard but smooth to the touch. It is a lovely blue-green color with a speckled pattern that reminds me of a robin’s egg. It's sleek, compact, and lightweight so it is very comfortable to hold and doesn’t tire your hand out. The one-button design is also convenient and doesn’t require much thinking.

Because of the one-button design, it is extremely easy to filter through the different vibrational settings. To turn the device on, you do have to press and hold the button for a few seconds before it will start. You have to push the button a little harder than expected so individuals with weak hands or disabilities might struggle a little bit. The charger is a simple plug-in design and is really easy to push into the charging slot. Because of the shape of the charger, it also feels secure inside the device while it charges. However, this toy would not be suitable for individuals who need or prefer hands-free devices.

The quality is overall not bad. Does this feel like an extremely high-quality, luxury item? No. But, it is very sturdy and does not feel “cheap” or gimmicky. I don’t think I could break it even if I tried, but I don’t know if the motor itself is going to last me years. The buzzing is definitely not whisper-quiet but it’s quiet enough that the noise could be drowned out by the sound of music or the tv. Those with thin walls will definitely want to have another sound playing in the room unless they want everyone to hear little buzzing bees.

Considering that the Gaia Eco Bullet is actually pretty sturdy and has great vibration power, I think it's priced really reasonably. It's under $30 and so for a beginner, I really think this is a great, affordable option. Plus, I think the appeal of biodegradability and eco-friendliness adds another layer of quality and uniqueness that makes it worth the price. Similar-style bullets in a similar price range are usually really cheap feeling and never last longer than a few weeks.

Again, the Gaia Eco Bullet was way more powerful than I anticipated. The vibrations are wonderful if you like a buzz over a rumble and the patterned vibrations have a nice strength to them as well. If you are using it for multiple rounds, it does get a little warm to the touch but not hot. The package claims the battery will last for almost an hour, but I found it didn’t completely die until around 1.5 - 2 hours of use. It charges back up fully in about an hour. The charging light indicator is really handy and easy to see.

The packaging is really simple and straightforward. They don’t try to reel you in with any fancy designs it’s just sweet and to the point. When opening the package, there were some layers of cardboard, so the vibrator felt really snug and secure inside. There is a basic description of the product materials and usage but no extremely specific usage or charging instructions. The colors of the box felt cohesive with the design of the vibrator. Simple, clean, and to the point just like the product inside.

The device is made out of lightweight, body-safe, plant-based plastic. The plastic is smooth and feels durable. It is not fully waterproof but is “splashproof”, so cleaning it with a little toy cleaner or gentle soap and water is really easy as long as you are not fully submerging the product. Since it’s so small, it is really easy to tuck inside a bag or nightstand drawer. It did not come with its own storage box or bag as some toys do, but I personally never use those so this was not an issue for me.
