The packaging
The Satisfyer Penguin comes in a sleek white box. All the info about the toy is printed on it. The box contains the Penguin itself and the USB charging cable. The packaging isn't all that exciting, just a standard box for a toy that's anything but standard.

The material and the brand
Satisfyer is a brand that's developed a lot of new toys recently. The stimulation method is the same for all of those toys: air pressure stimulation. It's a unique stimulation method that provides really amazing clitoris stimulation. The Satisfyers (5 different models) all have the same function and the same number of settings. They're also waterproof (perfect for cleaning, even better in the tub) and rechargeable. Can it get any better? Yes, these sucking toys won't have you breaking your piggy bank or turning your wallet inside out. There are other versions that are actually three times as expensive.
The difference compared to the Satisfyer Pro 2
I previously tested the Satisfyer Pro 2, a sex toy that I gave a pretty high score because it did exactly what it promised. The Penguin works the same way, has the same number of settings and is also waterproof. And yet there were still quite a few differences between these models.
The size and handle
The biggest difference compared to the Satisfyer Pro 2 is the size. The Pro 2 has a large, straight handle. The Penguin is more shapely and compact. That's a big plus if you ask me. The large handle is plenty sturdy, but I don't think that's necessary on sucking toys. Because the handle of the Penguin is curved and has a matte coating, it's very easy to hold. It's also nice that the handle isn't too long, which means it won't get stuck in the sheets.
The mouth and operating it
The Satisfyer Penguin also has a different mouth. The Pro 2 has a large, round mouth with a thick silicone edge. The Penguin has more of a rectangular mouth that has a larger opening but a thinner silicone edge. That was a downside for me. I thought the thicker edge and smaller opening felt better. Operating the Penguin isn't that much different. This model also has 11 settings that you operate with buttons. You use the small button to turn the toy on and off and the large button to switch between settings. But on the Penguin, the buttons are on the inside of the handle. The Pro 2 has the buttons on the outside. In other words, the mouth of the Pro 2 is on the opposite side of the buttons. That's not a huge downside, but when they're on the inside, you can't 'accidentally' press them when you put too much pressure on the handle.
Using it
Air pressure stimulation is unique, and it feels that way. Within a few minutes (if you can last that long) you'll have an orgasm that a lot of vibrators could never manage. That's a lot better if you want an orgasm, now, immediately, straight away. The mouth feels nice and soft and the buttons are easy to find (even in the dark).
The final conclusion
I'm a huge fan of the Satisyer Penguin. It's a compact toy that comes in a fun color. The fact that it's waterproof and rechargeable is ideal. The settings and patterns provide plenty of variety and the buttons are easy to operate. I gave the Satisfyer Pro 2 a 9, and I think the Penguin is just as good. So it gets a 9, too! It would've been a 10 if the mouth had been the same as the Pro 2 model.
