plusOne Rechargeable Bullet

A pocket-sized silicone bullet from a mainstream brand. Waterproof, rechargeable, one button.

  • Beginner Friendly
  • Quiet Design
  • Easy to Clean

Palm-sized external designs are the category most often recommended to beginners, for straightforward reasons: there is no sizing to get wrong, the controls are simple, and the shape is unambiguous about what it is for.

Who may find it useful

  • · Anyone new to the category who wants something uncomplicated
  • · People who prioritise quiet operation
  • · Those who want a product that is simple to wash

Who may prefer another category

  • · People who already know they prefer a larger wand-style product
  • · Anyone who wants remote or app control

plusOne's bullet is the version of this category you find on drugstore shelves: silicone, listed as fully waterproof, USB rechargeable with a two-year warranty, and operated by a single button through ten modes. It is a bullet rather than a palm-shaped design, which makes it even simpler to hold.

Materials and construction

Look for a seamless silicone body and a named material on the listing. Vague terms such as “skin-safe rubber” are a reason to keep looking.

Measurements

Products of this type are typically small enough to fit in a closed hand. Confirm the listing's stated length and width before purchasing.

Controls and power

Representative designs use one or two buttons and a magnetic or USB charging contact. Check the listing for a travel lock.

Cleaning and storage

Fully waterproof silicone can generally be washed with warm water and mild soap, then dried completely. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for the charging contact.

Compatibility notes

Water-based lubricant is the conventional pairing for silicone products. Confirm silicone-lubricant compatibility on the packaging.

Manufacturer instructions

Follow the manufacturer’s current instructions for use, cleaning, charging and storage. Where anything on this page differs from the manufacturer’s documentation, the manufacturer’s documentation takes precedence.

Why it may appeal

  • · Nothing to size
  • · Quiet against the body
  • · Simple to clean

Points to consider

  • · Rechargeable products need a charger to hand when travelling
  • · Some designs are more intense than beginners expect; start on the lowest setting

Questions to check before purchasing

  1. Is the material named, and is it silicone?
  2. Is the product rated waterproof or only splash-resistant?
  3. Is there a travel lock?
  4. What charging cable does it use?
