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 Pillow Talk Racy has a powerful top setting and covers an impressive range from low to high. It’s great for everyone but those who need extreme power.

The starting power is a 2 out of 10 vibration strength. So it begins soft enough for people who need a warmup and those overstimulated by intensity. And its top level reaches 7.75 out of 10, a strength I consider intense. Although there are a few bullets with more extreme upper settings like the Blush Limited Addiction and BMS Swan Maximum, I orgasm effortlessly and reliably with the Pillow Talk Racy.

With the Pillow Talk Racy’s incremental speed control, it covers its power range completely. You’ll hold the button to gradually increase power in tiny increments and release it when you’ve reached your desired strength.

As a result, steps between power levels are very comfortable – not jarring. And you have a ton of intensity levels available in each part of the power range (gentle, moderate, and strong). Many other bullet vibrators may cover a wide power range but do so with only a few distinct intensity levels.

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 vibrations higher than buzzy ones because it’s what most people prefer.

The majority of the Pillow Talk Racy’s vibrations are rumbly. Only the top few power levels cross into the neutral-feeling range, which I actually really enjoy. The more expensive We-Vibe Tango X and the discontinued original Tango are the only two bullet vibrators I’ve tested with comparable power that are more rumbly than the Pillow Talk Racy.

The Pillow Talk Racy is a great, affordable bullet for those who prefer rumbly vibrations.

The Pillow Talk Racy is an excellent toy for internal use. Although longer, full-sized G-spot vibrators are easier to leverage and maneuver, the Racy is my favorite mini G-spot vibrator.

The Racy’s handle is longer than my other G-spot bullets, allowing your hand more space to grip the toy while using it internally. This helps keep your hand and fingers comfortable while leveraging the vibrator for firm pressure.

As a mini version of the full-sized Pillow Talk Sassy (1.5 inches wide), the Racy is slimmer at just 1.03 inches wide. People who find large toys uncomfortable will prefer the Racy’s narrower head (I like it more personally). But people who like girth and feeling “full” will enjoy the Sassy more.

I enjoy rumbly vibrations for internal stimulation, so the Pillow Talk Racy’s rumbly low and moderate power levels are fantastic. And even though the high-powered settings are not rumbly, they’re still strong enough to have an enjoyable impact.

I love the slightly flexible core, which makes inserting and moving this vibrator easier and more comfortable than a rigid toy. The bulbous shape of the Racy’s head also spreads the pressure comfortably!

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 Pillow Talk Racy lies between broad and focused. Its rounded G-spot tip is broader than most bullet vibrators at 1.03 inches wide. But as a mini vibrator, it’s still more focused than large toys like full-sized G-spot vibrators, wand vibrators, and even other mini vibrators like the We-Vibe Touch X.

This is my favorite size for applying firm pressure because it comfortably distributes the stimulation but is still narrow enough to target a specific area. The coverage is not focused exclusively on the clit, but it’s also not blanketing your whole vulva.

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 Pillow Talk Racy is exceptionally comfortable and easy to use for clit stimulation (also see our section discussing G-spot use above).

At 5 inches in length, it’s one of my longest bullet vibrators. This length makes it easier to leverage and provides more space to grip the handle comfortably without your fingers getting tired or cramped. The vibrations also don’t travel much into my hands, so I can play comfortably for a long time.

The hooked end makes it even easier to apply firm pressure without wrist or finger strain. And I love that the core is slightly flexible, which keeps the firm pressure from bumping into my pubic bone too hard.

The incremental control system takes getting used to, but I like it. You increase power by holding down the button. The Pillow Talk Racy will gradually increase strength until you release the button when you reach your preferred intensity. To go back to the gentlest power, you can double-click the button.

The downside of this method is that you can’t step back down a power level or two. You’ll have to return to the beginning by double-clicking – then hold down the button again. However, I’ve found that this hasn’t felt disruptive during use. And the advantage of this method is that it inherently provides tiny, comfortable steps between power levels – never a large, jarring leap.

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.

The Pillow Talk Racy is remarkable during sex.

The typical angled shape of G-spot vibrators like the Racy makes them more convenient during sex. The Racy’s curved tip fits more naturally between our bodies without needing to angle the handle outward as I would with a straight bullet vibrator.

Since the Racy is also longer than most bullet vibrators I’ve tested, my hands don’t need to reach as far and take up space between my legs. The head is small enough to slip into tight areas easily. And the slightly flexible core moves comfortably with your body to maintain contact and prevent uncomfortable bumping around.

If you’re hoping to use a bullet vibrator during sex, this is one of the most convenient and effective ones for the job!

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 Pillow Talk Racy is one of my absolute quietest bullet vibrators. This is especially impressive considering its excellent power.

It’s one of only four bullet vibrators we tested that had noise levels so low our Sound Level Meter could not pick up the sound. Even on high power, its decibel levels did not exceed the ambient background noise of the room itself.

My partner could not hear it from behind a closed bedroom door on any power level during our testing. In fact, the noise is so low I hardly notice the sound myself while I’m using the Racy. So the Pillow Talk Racy is an excellent choice if you live with others or are distracted by sound.

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 Pillow Talk Racy’s battery life is disappointing. In our testing, it only lasted 40 minutes continuously vibrating on its highest power – well below average.

I prefer my bullets to last for at least an hour. Plenty surpass this, including our best overall bullet vibrator, the We-Vibe Tango X. However, you can extend the Pillow Talk Racy’s runtime if you also use the lower and middle power levels. But you’ll want to remember to charge the Racy between each use.

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 Pillow Talk Racy has excellent build quality! The only aspect of the Racy’s build that I don’t like is that it uses a pin-charger through the toy’s body with self-healing silicone. While not inherently worse, most companies have moved to using magnetic chargers. But the rest of the build is superb.

It’s covered in a smooth, luxurious silicone. Its flexible core is not flimsy – it feels sturdy, high-quality, and has a good weight. The textured grip, metallic colored accents, and crystal button feel elegant. The Racy’s button is also easier to press than my other Pillow Talk bullet (the Pillow Talk Flirty). I expect the Pillow Talk Racy to last a while!

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.

The Pillow Talk Racy is easy to clean because it’s IPX6 splashproof. It can resist high-pressure streams of water, so you can run it safely under the faucet while cleaning it with soap and water. But you should not completely submerge it or use it underwater.
