Dame Pom vs FemmeFunn Booster Bullet Side-By-Side Comparison
Performance Ratings
Our Verdict
The Dame Pom has a unique, exceptionally broad design that’s extremely flexible, fits nicely in your palm, and comfortably spreads the stimulation across your entire vulva. Like most Dame vibrators, its vibration power ranges from gentle to mid-intensity – so it’s best for those who prefer mild vibrations or are prone to overstimulation. But the vibrations are deep and rumbly, so they pack a nice impact without being overstimulating.
If you want a mild, compact toy that comfortably stimulates your entire vulva, the Dame Pom is a great mini vibrator. If you prefer more intense vibrations and don’t need the stimulation to be quite as broad, consider the We-Vibe Touch X in the same price range.
The FemmeFunn Booster Bullet is one of my favorites and is an excellent option for people who enjoy strong, buzzy vibrations. Its top power reaches a level I consider “extreme.” It’s one of my most powerful bullet vibrators!
It’s definitely for people who like intensity, as it lacks any truly gentle levels. Personally, I find the Booster Bullet’s moderately strong first setting comfortable as a warmup. And its top two levels pack wonderful power. The buzziness also adds to that intense feeling.
If you need very gentle levels or prefer rumbly vibrations, consider the We-Vibe Tango X instead.
The FemmeFunn Booster Bullet’s length and flexible form make it very comfortable during solo or partnered play. The controls require you to cycle through the power levels and patterns, but its memory system and boost button make it more convenient than similar bullets.
It’s one of my favorite bullets, but the FemmeFunn Ultra Bullet performs similarly and is about $20 cheaper. If you’re willing to trade off the booster button and a slight bit of power (the difference is almost imperceptible), then the FemmeFunn Ultra Bullet is better for you.
If you’d rather spend a bit more for the upgrades, the Booster Bullet is an excellent choice.

Vibrations: Power And Range
The Dame Pom has a decent power range that begins very soft (1.25 out of 10) and reaches a medium intensity (5.0 out of 10) on high power.
The Pom’s gentle-to-average strength is great if you’re prone to overstimulation or just prefer moderate intensity. And with its 5 power levels, you can climb through its power range slowly and comfortably. But it may not be enough if you prefer finishing with very intense stimulation.
If you prefer powerful vibrations, I’d consider the We-Vibe Touch X or Fun Factory Laya III in the Dame Pom’s price range. They both begin as gently as the Dame Pom but finish with stronger vibrations (7.75 out of 10), which is plenty for most people.
I still enjoy the Dame Pom’s milder vibrations. I can orgasm with them, but I definitely need to use the highest setting to get there. It’s a slower process since everything is gentler, but drawing the experience out by edging for a while can be fun and lead to a stronger orgasm eventually.
The FemmeFunn Booster Bullet is one of my strongest bullet vibrators and has a good range between low and high.
I don’t consider many bullet vibrators’ top strength “extreme,” but the Booster Bullet is one I do.
It reaches a 9.5 out of 10 on its top power level. I never need to use this setting because even the second level is intense. The Booster Bullet has about 5% more power than the cheaper FemmeFunn Ultra Bullet – though the Ultra’s 9 out of 10 top power is strong enough for most people. Depending on your budget, it might be worth saving the $20 going with the Ultra Bullet for the minimal difference.
There are better choices than the FemmeFunn Booster Bullet for those who need mild stimulation. Its lowest power is 4.75 out of 10 strength – it begins with a fair amount of power. If you need more gentle settings consider the Lovense Ambi or BMS Swan Maximum if you like buzzy vibrations. Or the We-Vibe Tango X if you prefer rumbly vibrations.
As someone who enjoys moderate to intense vibrations but nothing too extreme, I find the Booster Bullet’s starting level perfect as a warm-up. I spend a lot of time with it because you can vary how intense it feels by applying more or less pressure. Or by changing how direct the stimulation is on your clit.
Then, when I switch to the second power level, I’m ready for its strength and don’t find it overwhelming. This setting is around my ideal strength to finish.
Vibrations: Frequency (Rumbliness)
We rate rumbly vibrations higher than buzzy ones because it’s what most people prefer.
The Dame Pom has decent rumbliness, with its 5 power levels ranging from extremely rumbly on low to neutral on high. It never becomes buzzy, which many people find overstimulating or numbing. Its low-frequency vibrations and moderate power make it a good option if you prefer milder stimulation.
If you prefer low-frequency, rumbly vibrations but enjoy more power, there are better options than the Dame Pom. For instance, the We-Vibe Tango X and We-Vibe Touch X have similarly low-frequency (rumbly) vibrations but more strength on those rumbly settings. Or rumbly wand vibrators like the BMS Swan Era Wand or Lovense Domi 2 pack even higher intensity while remaining rumbly.
Which is better for you depends on whether you prefer rumbly, mild vibrations or rumbly, intense vibrations.
We rate rumbly vibrators higher than buzzy ones because it’s what most people prefer. But others prefer buzzy vibrators, so go with what you like!
The FemmeFunn Booster Bullet is buzzy. Only the lowest power level is in the rumbly range. The two highest settings are moderately and extremely buzzy. This buzziness makes the already powerful vibrations feel even more intense.
I personally enjoy the Booster Bullet’s buzzy vibrations – it’s one of my favorites. But those who want deep, rumbly vibrations will want to go with the We-Vibe Tango X instead. It’s the most rumbly bullet I’ve tried. Although not quite as strong as the Booster Bullet, it will be enough strength for many people.
Vibrations typically become buzzier the stronger they get. None of the bullets I’ve tested that have extreme strength like the FemmeFunn Booster Bullet are rumbly. So consider whether you value rumbliness or intensity more.
Stimulation Precision
The Dame Pom’s wide, flexible shape primarily provides broad stimulation. It spreads comfortably along your vulva and vibrates the entire area.
Using the Dame Pom’s ridged tip, you can also focus the stimulation more. But resting the Pom over the entire area for broad stimulation is easiest. A bullet-shaped toy like the We-Vibe Tango X is better if you prefer precise stimulation.
The Pom’s flexible shape and squishy texture help its broad stimulation feel especially comfortable. It feels like the Pom is spreading out to fill every nook and cranny.
The flexible core also gives you more control over exactly where you apply pressure. You can palm this whole toy and use your fingers to press the vibrations exactly where you want them. Since the Pom is not rigid, the pressure isn’t an “all or nothing” deal – you can choose which areas you want to feel that firm pressure.
The FemmeFunn Booster Bullet is neither broad nor particularly focused – it’s a happy medium. The relatively wide tip (nearly an inch) is broader than many bullets with a typical lipstick or tapered shape. And it’s rounded, making it feel broader too. This makes it comfortable for firm pressure because it’s more evenly distributing that weight instead of feeling pokey.
But it’s still narrower than several bullets and other mini vibrators like the We-Vibe Touch X. The tip is small enough to isolate vibrations to a reasonably small area, or you can use the side of the bullet to spread that out and cover a bit more space.
Comfort & Ease of Use
The shape and texture of the Dame Pom make it extremely comfortable on your body, but applying pressure is challenging.
The plush, flexible core easily contours to your body with a gentle, pillowy feel. The flexibility and broad, contoured shape make for a snug fit that spreads the pressure and vibrations comfortably along your whole vulva.
The extreme flexibility limits the pressure you can apply though. So it’s best for those who enjoy gentle or medium pressure, broadly spread across your vulva – not those who like to firmly press the vibrator into a particular spot. Any pressure comes from pushing the back of the Pom with your fingers – not like a toy with a handle that you can leverage with your hand or arm for a ton of pressure.
The Magic Wand Micro is cheaper and has a similar level of plushness in the head, but has a solid handle, so it’s easier to apply firm pressure. But the Magic Wand Micro’s power range is more limited.
I had to get used to the Dame Pom’s buttons. Since the palm vibrator is very squishy, the controls are easy to press accidentally. Sometimes, when I flex the Pom, the bending motion automatically clicks the increase power button. So there’s a minor learning curve to prevent this from happening.
I enjoy that the Dame Pom has separate buttons to increase and decrease power, or move through vibration patterns. So you can quickly reach your desired setting. You can also hold down the buttons to steadily change power for a more gradual build (rather than stepping up or down through the 5 preset power levels). So once you get used to the buttons, they provide excellent control.
The FemmeFunn Booster Bullet is very comfortable, and the buttons provide good control.
The length is excellent for maneuvering without taking up too much space or cramping your fingers. The form is flexible, which makes it comfortable to press against your body. This flexibility means you need to shift your fingers and use them to press closer to the tip if you want extra-firm pressure rather than leveraging it from the base as you would with a rigid bullet.
The vibrations travel into your fingers a bit when using them to press near the tip (where the motor is located) for extra pressure, but it’s nothing too distracting.
You cycle through the 3 intensity levels and 17 patterns using a single button on the bullet’s base. This is less convenient than bullets that let you toggle forward and backward with separate buttons, like the We-Vibe Tango X. Still, the Booster Bullet is more advanced than other cycling bullets because of the Boost button and memory system.
The Boost button lets you quickly jump from wherever you are in the cycle to the top steady intensity level. So basically, whenever you’re on the edge, tap the Boost button to take you the rest of the way. In addition to the slight power increase, the Boost button is this bullet’s other upgrade over the FemmeFunn Ultra Bullet. If it doesn’t seem worthwhile to you, you can save some money and get the Ultra.
The Booster Bullet also has a built-in memory system (as does the Ultra Bullet). The next time you use the bullet, it will pick up at your most recent setting. That way, if you have a favorite setting, you won’t need to cycle through all the patterns to find it again.
And for those who prefer warming up on the gentlest setting, the next click of the button will take you directly to the lowest constant power level.
Use During Sex
The Dame Pom works really well during sex as long as you prefer milder, rumbly stimulation. The tip covers a comfortable area, and you don’t have to worry about precisely positioning it in the “exact right spot” since it broadly covers your whole clit and upper vulva.
The stimulation is lovely, and I’m able to keep good contact with my clit during sex. Since the tip is flexible, it moves with my body during sex to stay in contact.
It’s easiest to situate the Dame Pom in positions where you’re not facing your partner and have lots of space for your hand and the toy since both will need to be between your legs. But even in Missionary position, it still works well since the shape is so flat, and your fingers rest flatly along the back of the toy. So together, your hand and the Pom are not too thick that they take up that much space – it just takes a little more intentionality in face-to-face positions.
This bullet works amazingly well during sex. It’s a great size to slip into tight spaces without taking up much room or bumping against your partner. Its round tip and flexible form make it especially comfortable, even with heavy movement during sex. It flexes with your body to remain in comfortable contact with your clit (directly or indirectly).
It’s also a reasonably long bullet, so I don’t need to keep my hands too far down during sex.
Noise
The Dame Pom is very quiet for the most part, and it’s unlikely any housemates will hear you using it.
However, it can make an occasional rattling sound on its highest power. We test every mini vibrator to see whether someone may hear it on the other side of a closed door. My partner listens as I use the vibrator in the bedroom, and he notes whether he can hear it. My partner could only hear the Dame Pom when I used it at its maximum power and only when it made a rattling sound.
This was his note in our testing spreadsheet: “Even with this occasional rattle, I still have to try hard to hear it. It’s unlikely someone would actually notice it during ordinary use.”
I can also prevent the Pom from rattling by adjusting my grip to keep it in better contact with my body. If you’d rather play it safe, simply turning on a box fan or playing music in the bedroom makes the Dame Pom completely inaudible behind a closed door. Or you could try an exceptionally discreet vibrator like the We-Vibe Touch X if you’re very concerned about noise.
The FemmeFunn Booster Bullet has good, quiet noise levels. Our decibel readings were lower than the average bullet – this is especially impressive considering it’s one of the most powerful I’ve tested.
We also test whether someone would hear the bullet on the other side of a closed door. My partner stands directly on the other side of the door while I use the bullet in the bedroom.
The first two power levels were completely inaudible, but my partner could just barely hear it on the highest setting. This is the note he left in our testing spreadsheet word for word:
“This was just barely perceptible on high. I had to try really hard and wait for sounds outside to become extremely quiet. I doubt anyone would actually hear in typical use.”
Turning on a box fan or music solves this problem completely, so you can use this to mask the noise if you want to use all power levels.
Battery Life
The Dame Pom is rechargeable and has a decent battery life, lasting 85 minutes on high power. This should be plenty for most people, but you’ll want to charge between every couple of uses depending on how long you run it.
A full charge takes 2 hours using its magnetic USB charging cable.
The FemmeFunn Booster Bullet is rechargeable and lasted 85 minutes on high power during our testing. It has the longest battery life of my “extremely powerful” bullets. And if you also use the lower or middle powers occasionally, you’ll prolong the lifespan even more.
Build Quality
The Dame Pom’s build quality is okay. It has many qualities that make it feel luxurious, like its comfortably plush, silky silicone exterior. And its contoured shape that fits naturally in your palm, or its completely waterproof design.
But the extremely flexible structure also causes it to feel cheap in some ways – for instance, when the Dame Pom flexes, the flexing motion often presses one of the buttons accidentally. And it almost feels precariously held together inside, as though too much flexing could damage it – although I’ve had no issues with it wearing out or breaking.
The FemmeFunn Booster Bullet has excellent build quality. The body-safe silicone is smooth and comfortable. The ABS Plastic housing the motor also feels solid. It has some good weight, making it feel more durable than cheap, lightweight bullets. The silicone buttons also feel well-made.
The flexible part is a little squeaky, which is not as luxurious as I would hope, but it hasn’t caused me any issues. I’m comfortable applying firm pressure without worrying about damaging the bullet.
Cleaning
The Dame Pom is extremely easy to clean because it’s 100% waterproof. So you can completely submerge the Pom as you scrub with soapy water. You can also use it worry-free in the shower or bathtub.
Since the Booster Bullet is entirely waterproof, it’s very easy to clean. You can completely submerge it while scrubbing it with soap and water. No worrying about damaging the toy.
