The Dame Zee’s power is incredibly weak – reaching only a 2.7 out of 10 on its top strength. It’s the weakest bullet vibrator I’ve tried that I can just barely orgasm with. But while I can orgasm using the Dame Zee, it takes time and effort. There are plenty of comparably-priced bullets that make it easier!

The Zee has 3 power levels, with the lowest starting at only a .25 out of 10. So the first level is hardly a whisper against my clit. Even if you’re looking for a gentle toy to limit overstimulation, I’d still recommend one that gives you the option to go stronger.

For instance, the Je Joue Classic Bullet and Pillow Talk Flirty both have soft, lower powers (under 2 out of 10 intensity). But their upper levels are stronger than the Dame Zee’s, giving you a better range to enjoy.

Or if you prefer high intensity, the Blush Limited Addiction and Nasstoys Intense Travel Vibe Mini are two powerful bullets for about the same price as the Zee.

The Doxy Bullet has incredible strength. Vibration strength is the Doxy brand’s specialty – they also make the strongest wand vibrator I’ve tested (the Doxy Die Cast). Its enormous strength makes the Doxy Bullet appealing to those who crave intensity.

But with only 2 power levels, its lowest setting is already very intense at 7.5 out of 10 vibration strength. It provides no gentle settings for those who need a warmup.

While testing the Doxy bullet, I had to use gentler bullets initially, then switch to the Doxy once I was ready for more power. I think most people will agree that the starting level is too intense.  This is the main reason I recommend the Doxy Go instead – it has 5 settings, reaching the same top strength as the Doxy Bullet while also including gentle and moderate warmup levels. Note that we tested the Doxy Go as a wand vibrator so scores between the two reviews are not directly comparable. Read about how these compare below.

There are other bullet vibrators at this price point that achieve high strength but also include some lower levels that are better for warming up. The Blush Limited Addiction matches the Doxy’s top strength but also offers more moderate starting levels (though still nothing super gentle), which can be less jarring in that warm-up phase.

Or the BMS Swan Maximum is an even more powerful bullet with a broader power range, but I find it less comfortable to hold, so I prefer the Limited Addiction personally.

We rate vibrators with rumbly vibrations higher than buzzy ones because it’s what most people prefer. The Dame Zee has below-average rumbliness.

The Dame Zee’s first two power levels technically fall within the “rumbly” range, but the rumbly vibes have little impact since they’re so weak. And by the time you reach the top intensity level, the vibrations are no longer rumbly.

For that quality, rumbly feel at a higher power, you often have to pay a bit more. The Je Joue Classic Bullet is an excellent, rumbly alternative that’s about $20 more. Or if you’d like one of the most rumbly and well-loved bullets, the We-Vibe Tango X is a fantastic, premium choice.

Since most people prefer rumbly vibrations, we rate these bullets higher than buzzy ones. However, your preferred vibration frequency is just that – a personal preference! I often enjoy a neutral or moderately-buzzy feeling bullet myself!

However, buzziness combined with extreme power typically feels overwhelming and uncomfortable to me. And that’s exactly what the Doxy Bullet is: extreme in both power and buzziness.

The Doxy Bullet’s first setting falls in the moderately buzzy range. Some days, I still find this first buzzy setting overwhelming, even after warming up with a gentler bullet first. The second setting is extremely buzzy and super intense. While some people might enjoy that much buzzy strength, it’s too much for me and is hard to use.

If you prefer rumbly vibrations, consider a different bullet. The We-Vibe Tango X is the most rumbly bullet I’ve tested – all 8 of its power levels are extremely rumbly. Or if you enjoy some buzziness, but not too extreme, the Lovense Ambi is excellent. It ranges from extremely rumbly on low to moderately buzzy on high. But because it’s not so far along the spectrum, I enjoy its buzzy settings.

The Dame Zee has a narrow head with a tapered tip that provides precise stimulation. If you like focused stimulation, you can limit your stimulation to a tiny area by using the tip of the bullet.

Often you can get broader stimulation by pressing the side of a bullet against you instead of the tip. But since the Dame Zee is so short, it’s difficult to hold it in that position. So the Zee is best if you prefer focused stimulation.

The Doxy’s precision level is medium. It does have a tapered tip for more precise stimulation, but it’s a pretty thick bullet. I enjoy this combination of a fine tip and thicker bullet for the versatility. You can use the very tip for more focused stimulation. And then, you can angle the Doxy Bullet to press the side against you for slightly broader stimulation.

The We-Vibe Tango X, the Blush Limited Addiction, the FemmeFunn Booster Bullet, and the Je Joue Classic are some bullets with similarly versatile precision but better performance overall.

While the Dame Zee isn’t really uncomfortable, most bullets I’ve tried are easier to use. The Dame Zee is especially small, even compared to other bullets making it more difficult to grip and maneuver. You have to grip the tiny handle pretty tightly between the tips of your fingers which can be tiring.

There’s not enough length along the short handle to leverage the Dame Zee. So any pressure comes from your whole hand and arm pressing the toy in. Longer bullets like the Blush Limited Addiction, rest more comfortably in your hand, and allow you to control firm or soft pressure by efficiently leveraging the toy in your fingers.

You control the Dame Zee’s power by cycling through with a single button, which is easy to press without adjusting your grip. Typically, these one-button cycle setups are frustrating. But since there are only 3 power levels and no patterns on the Zee, it’s easy to tap through quickly.

The Doxy is a nice size to grip and easily leverage. But it’s one of my worst bullets for feeling the vibrations in my hand. It’s one of the main reasons I don’t reach for this toy. I can only hold it briefly before the hand vibrations become unbearable.

It has one button on the end of the bullet to cycle through the two power levels and all the patterns. It’s not ideal for quickly finding your favorite setting. I prefer the Doxy Go, Je Joue Classic and We-Vibe Tango X’s multi-button system, which lets you increase and decrease power using separate buttons to make quick, easy adjustments.

Or the Lovense Ambi, which only has one button on the toy itself, but lets you make fine-tuned adjustments through the app. Not to mention the ability to design your own custom patterns in the moment.

The Dame Zee is not worth messing with during sex. The stimulation is so weak that it has little impact. And because the Zee is so tiny, you really have to get your fingers down there working hard to get any good pressure. Using the Zee during sex takes a lot of effort with little payoff, so I find it more of a distraction.

If you’ll frequently use your bullet vibrator during sex, I recommend slightly longer bullets with more strength. The Pillow Talk Flirty (low to medium power) and Blush Limited Addiction (medium to extreme power) are better alternatives in this same price range.

Or, if you want one of the best bullet vibrators overall, the We-Vibe Tango X is also great during sex.

Unfortunately, the vibes that travel into my hand make the Doxy Bullet very distracting during sex. The sound is also a downfall – it is the loudest of my bullets and just takes me out of the mood. The hard, aluminum surface also gets pressed uncomfortably into my body during sex. For those who care about using their bullet during sex, I recommend other options.

If you prefer strong, neutral to buzzy vibrations, consider the FemmeFunn Booster Bullet or Lovense Ambi. Or if you like rumbly vibrations, consider the We-Vibe Tango X. Each is better during sex than the Doxy Bullet.

The Dame Zee is inaudible from behind a closed door on all power levels. But since it’s also one of my weakest bullet vibrators, this isn’t very impressive.

If you want a discreet bullet, there are plenty of quiet but stronger options available. For those on a budget, the Je Joue Classic, Nasstoys Intense Travel Vibe Mini, and Blush Limited Addiction are all inaudible from behind a closed door as well.

And the We-Vibe Touch X is one of my absolute favorites and has the lowest decibel reading, but it’s not cheap.

The Doxy is my loudest bullet vibrator. During our testing, it was audible from behind a closed door on all settings. This is the only bullet vibrator we tested that was still audible after turning on a box fan in the bedroom. Only loud music was able to drown the sound out. So it’s not a great choice if you have housemates.

And even if there’s no need for discretion, the sound is just plain distracting. Any other bullet you might be eyeing on my list will be better because none of the others bother me like the Doxy Bullet. Doxy’s mini-wand reaches the same top strength while remaining much quieter.

The We-Vibe Touch X is the quietest if you prioritize discreet sound levels with decent power. And the Lovense Ambi and Je Joue Classic are other strong options that are both completely inaudible from behind a closed door on all power levels.

The Dame Zee is rechargeable and has a long battery life lasting 2 hours on high power. But since it’s weaker than other bullets, this is not much to boast about. Of course it lasts a while – it doesn’t use much power!

The We-Vibe Tango X and Nasstoys Intense Travel Vibe Mini last an hour and a half. And the Je Joue Classic and Blush Limited Addiction last around an hour on high. All these are stronger options, and you can even draw their battery life out longer if you use the lower levels.

The Doxy Bullet has a reasonable battery life, lasting about an hour and a half on high power.

However, several better bullet and mini vibrators last just as long or longer, including the We-Vibe Touch X, We-Vibe Tango X, and the FemmeFunn Booster Bullet.

The Dame Zee feels a little cheaply made because it’s so lightweight and doesn’t feel as solid as some others. But I’ve had no issues with it breaking so far. And while the button on the end does not feel very high-quality, it functions fine.

Even at this budget-friendly price point, I prefer the more solid feel of the Blush Limited Addiction or Nasstoys Intense Travel Vibe Mini.

The Doxy Bullet has a quality build. The metal construction feels very sturdy. The aluminum body is smooth and elegant. And the silicone button feels quality and not cheap.

But given the other deal-breakers I’ve mentioned about the Doxy Bullet, I’d choose another high-quality option, such as the We-Vibe Touch X, the We-Vibe Tango X, or the Lovense Ambi.

The Dame Zee is very easy to clean. It’s IPX6 Water Resistant which means that it can resist high pressure jets of water. In other words, you can clean it in the sink using soap and water without worry. But it’s not rated to be completely submerged, so don’t use it in the bathtub.

The Doxy Bullet is very easy to clean. It’s IPX7 waterproof (completely submersible), so you can wash it in the sink and use it in the bath.
