Le Wand Chrome Grand Bullet Review: Metal Vibrator with Silicone Attachments

The Le Wand Chrome Grand Bullet has a certain look. An allure, with its metal body and rose-colored silicone sleeve. But the Grand Bullet’s real impact only becomes apparent when you hold it in your hand: it’s heavy! The shiny body-safe metal has the weight of a stainless steel sex toy like the (excellent) Njoy Pure Plug small.

If you’re reading this review, I suspect you’ll want to know: But do Le Wand Chrome vibes perform as attractively as they look? This review will discuss my experience, plus the extras that accompany the Grand Bullet.

Chrome Grand Bullet’s Power

The Le Wand Chrome Grand Bullet starts out with a deep rumble—and is surprisingly quiet too. This “Grand” Bullet1 is bigger than the other Le Wand Bullet ($15 less), and promises 40% more power too.

My interest was piqued by the “more power” part. But who am I kidding, I was most drawn in by the size. The Grand Bullet is a good choice if you prefer your vibes a little wider, or longer for easier grip, or in a vaguely phallic shape. At almost 5 inches long, it works as either an external or a vaginal vibe.

The Grand Bullet’s round top is just the right width to focus pressure like a (thicker) finger would. Without the removable silicone sheath, this Chrome Bullet’s metal is of course slick. And with the main attachment (pictured below), it’s smooth and a touch draggy. Lube is always helpful, especially if you’re using this in a wet environment!

I like hybrid silicone+water-based lube in the shower: it’s thicker and won’t damage silicone toys.

I (almost) always prefer the feel of silicone to metal, so I used that smooth-topped, bumpy-sided sheath in all my Grand Bullet testing sessions. The hard weight of the body presses in so nicely. I found myself getting off on the smooth top of the attachment every time…but before that, some gentle rubbing with the bumpy sides of the sheath was vulva-explorific.2

My findings on the Le Wand Grand Bullet’s 4 steady speeds:

  • Speed 1 is deep and rumbly.
  • Speed 2 cranks it up some—it’s noticeably louder.
  • Speed 3 is pretty strong, and at my personal limit for buzz.
  • Speed 4 is more than I need, especially together with the weight!

Speed #3 pressed down on my clit leaves me dripping… It’s the best for being strong while still maintaining a penetrating vibe quality. The Le Wand Chrome Bullet’s intensity left me thinking of two high-quality remote vibrators, the Ohmibod Esca 2 and Lovense Lush 2. That’s because all these toys are pretty strong but not the strongest or the rumbliest.

Le Wand Grand Bullet’s top speed, in fact, feels pretty comparable to Lovense Lush 2’s first of three speeds: I’d rank the Chrome toy as about a 6 out of 10 for max. power, with some buzz but not an overwhelming amount.

You see, the Grand Bullet’s metal offers pressure but also dampens. The motor just can’t resonate as strongly as in We-Vibe Tango with its slim, all-plastic body. If you want the strongest plus the rumbliest small vibe, Tango will always win. (Or the Blush Nocturnal Bullet, also all plastic, wins for sheer strength in a bullet.)

It’s all a matter of degrees…which is why I work to rank vibes comparatively. The Chrome Grand Bullet surpasses my own need for bullet-sized power, and I believe most users will find it reasonably strong too.

Overall, the Grand Bullet is miles away from the time I got that sparkly Lovehoney vibe—which was lots of glitz but basically no power, according to my standards.

Functions & Extras

Le Wand goes above and beyond with the luxe touches: little things you won’t get with pretty much every other toy company.3 Here those touches are that the Grand Bullet:

  • Comes in a decorative paper wrapper + gold sticker seal, like it’s fancy chocolates!
  • Includes the nicest-feeling toy storage pouch I own.
  • Has a magnetic charging cord that fully covers the bottom of the bullet and almost locks it in place, plus it lights up while charging—so you’ll know it’s actually charging and will be ready for your next session.

The Grand Bullet is fully waterproof, so it’s good for bath or shower.

As discussed, the Le Wand Grand Bullet has the 4 steady speeds. There are also 11 patterns, for a total of 15 functions. They’re all controlled via the one button at the bottom—a bit of an annoyance for me. But luckily, this isn’t an Ultra Bullet situation where the memory function ropes you back into the last level you were on before you turned off the toy. If you want to go down one steady speed, just power off and then on again to avoid cycling through the 11 patterns.

Finally, there are the two removable silicone attachments. Attachment #1 is my friend. But I wanted to see if this whole “two attachments at once” angle—pictured in the Le-Wand-created image below—would be functional.

Unfortunately, attachment #2 (the oval one) and my vulva didn’t mesh. Maybe it’s the fact that I don’t like pointy things around my clitoris, and these bumpy dots are rather prominent ones. I went for trying to grind on the wavy ridges on the back of the attachment instead—but they’re not so prominent.

For the record, I would be pretty scared if I noticed that my labia looked like this. (I’m suddenly visualizing Sesame Street characters.)

Really, I felt locked in place by the fact that I couldn’t put attachment #2 at the top of the toy: the hole isn’t big enough for that, so it has to be used while the toy is inserted vaginally.

The saving grace: it is just an attachment, not an essential part of the toy, so I’m free to set that “stimulating” oval ring aside and use the Grand Bullet without it.

Final Thoughts

The Le Wand Chrome Grand Bullet is a toy that’s stylin’ and weighty. Its vibes are fairly powerful, and they start nice and deep.

True to its name, this Chrome Bullet’s big claim to fame is the metal body. It’s slick and smooth if you want to use the bullet alone. Or add the silicone cap attachment for more feeling. The bumps on that are mild: gentle to rub against as an addition to the Grand Bullet’s vibes.

For me, the Grand Bullet’s speed #3 pairs well with the heavy, rounded tip. This toy is longer than most bullet vibes—almost the length of a “classic slimline” vibrator—so it’s easy to grip and exert pressure where I need it. It’s a pretty toy that also performs effectively: IF you don’t need *the absolute most* power. I would still recommend We-Vibe Tango and Sensuelle Point Plus first for sheer strength, hence why Le Wand Grand Bullet gets a 4/5.

Notes

  1. Say it with a French accent—that very throaty r and a nasal vowel—for extra pompous effect.
  2. I’m still looking for a sex-toy-specific thesaurus, lemme know if you have a good one. 😃
  3. Yup, better than We-Vibe and Fun Factory, even.
