I have been a huge fan of Je Joue for a while. Their toys are always well designed, made from incredibly smooth silicone and really innovative (the G-Kii, as far as I’m concerned, is still the most unique g-spot toy on the market). When we got the Uma in for testing, I was thrilled since I have loved all of my other Je Joue toys. Uma has turned out to be another excellent edition to the Je Joue line … with one exception.
Uma is marketed as a mid size (6.5″ x 1.5″) internal / external vibrator with a curve for g-spot stimulation. Like all of Je Joue’s other toys, Uma is seamless and coated in an ultra smooth silicone. Uma charges via inductive charge – meaning its charger has a magnetic clip that attaches to the buttons instead of plugging into a port in the toy. Because there is no port, Uma is guaranteed waterproof!
The vibration quality for Uma is fairly rumbly / thumpy and ranges from very gentle to relatively strong. It’s by no means the strongest vibrator on the market but the deep quality of vibration makes up for less power. The vibration is felt through the whole toy so, for external use, it is very easy to use either the insertable tip or the base for stimulation. As an insertable toy, Uma’s rigidity and curve make for excellent g-spot stimulation. I wouldn’t suggest this toy as an anal stimulator because the base isn’t quite flared enough to make it absolutely safe.
All of these qualities make Uma a great toy – so why am I on the fence about it? The pulsation mode button! The button that allows you to change from consistent vibration to vibration patterns is located in the middle of the base between the + button and the – button … and it is INCREDIBLY DIFFICULT to press while the toy is in use! The button is recessed and you have to jam your finger tip in there to get it to activate which is hilariously impossible when you have lube on your hands. I can only imagine that it would be similarly difficult should you have any sort of manual dexterity issues. Je Joue did, however, fix this issue with the release of the new G-Kii so hopefully Uma will get a revamp on its buttons soon as well.
Rage inducing button issue aside, Uma is a delightful g-spot toy. Deep vibrations, relatively quiet operation and lovely silicone combine to make this a premium toy that would make a good addition to anyone’s collection – especially if you aren’t dead set on getting it pulse! 😉
