The Power Probe Missile is an excellent beginner's toy. It has two speeds: low and high. Unforunately, there is no O ring so it isn't waterproof. It is made of TPR silicone, and it has a little bit of give right at the tapered tip for easy insertion. There is a seam on the body, but it will not bother most people. The only texture on the toy is located right below the head. The texture consists of only two raised rigdes, which is the perfect amount of texture for almost anyone. Even though it runs on one AA battery, it has some significant power. This is an all around good anal toy.
