G-spot - dildo by Tantus - review by Hannah Savage

There are plenty of rave reviews to read about how Tantus makes toys that are so do-able. Their G-spot dildo proved to be exactly that for me. I have happily used this toy several times during solo masturbation and I find that the bulbous head and girthy shaft along with the insertable vibrating bullet have gotten me great lengths closer to having a G-spot orgasm. However, this silicone beauty is not just for playing with yourself--you can pleasurably and safely seduce others with its harness compatibility. Also, its flared harness base allows it to be safely used anally for p-spot exploration.

Since 1998, Tantus has been making their toys from medical-grade, hygenic, 100% premium silicone. They are known for a firmer type of silicone than other manufacturers, and every item is made in the USA in order to keep all of their materials and craftsmanship at the highest level of superiority. Even after first receiving the toy, there is no taste or smell emitted, and the texture is deliciously smooth with no seams to worry about. Silicone does have a bit of tack to it, causing some skin drag, but the addition of a little bit of water-based lubricant changes this entirely. It has a wonderful weight to it, and the silky silicone is firm yet squishable, squeezable, and definitely usable for any type of thrusting you desire.

I have to admit that when this toy first arrived I couldn't stop squeezing it. The firmness was surprising, but gave a little under pressure. I would say that it is more flexible than squishy, as you can easily bend it, but you cannot squish it to nearly half its size. Definitely not floppy like jelly, not stinky like rubber, and not as unforgiving as plastic.

Although it is beautiful and I would love to show it off, this dildo is in no way discreet. It starts with a large, bulbous head that curves down to a thinner shaft before swirling into another thick swelled curve midway down the length of the toy. The variation in the thickness provides a filling sensation no matter how deep you thrust. The wireless plastic bullet adds vibration that travels through the length of the shaft, and has a rubber ring to prevent water from seeping in, so use in the shower is an option here. Without the bullet, the Gspot still provides the same amount of firmness and can be fully submerged in the bath or pool.

If you like the feeling, the silicone is firm enough to apply weighty pressure to your special spot, and the wide, harness-compatible base allows the user an area to grip firmly during solo use and prevent 'spinning' of the toy, so you can maintain this pressure. I would say that the G-spot is great for the average user--not so big that it hurts, but at a length of over 7" and with a 1.7" diameter it is definitely filling.

Whether your g-spot is shallow or deep, the curves of this Tantus toy are sure to reach it.

This is the largest dildo that I own, so I was concerned that it would be too thick and long for me to enjoy. I have a very shallow g-spot so I was surprised with how much sensation I was able to receive from a toy that I perceived to be quite large. The vibrations from the small plastic wireless bullet really surprised me at how well they were transmitted through the entire length of the silicone, providing me with the extra sensation I needed to reach orgasm. Many others have stated that these vibrations were not strong enough for them, and to that I may suggest a change of batteries. It does wonders--more than you think! For a wireless bullet that will dance with the power of its own vibrations in the palm of your hand, I was surprised at how quiet it was. It was hardly able to be heard from under my sheets.

Although I have not used it anally, I could see how the multiple curves along the length of the toy could massage the prostate, and the exterior bullet is sure to add stimulation to the perineum area. Others have stated that they feel the harness base is not strong enough to withstand anal use, the base on mine is half of an inch wide and I would feel safe using this toy anally. However, this is entirely up to the user.

I found that this is the easiest toy for me to use because of the flat base. At the end of the day, even when my carpal tunnel is acting up, this really lessens the angle at which I have to hold my wrist while still providing a lot of control over how it is maneuvered.

The best thing about silicone is that it is an absolute breeze to clean and sterilize. It is not necessary to sterilize the toy between each use if you are the only one using it, but if you plan to share then a quick boil, a 10% bleach solution or a ride in the dishwasher (top rack, please!) will do the trick. Otherwise, a quick wash with soap and water and/or your favorite toy cleaner will do the trick. Always remember to remove the bullet before cleaning, and please keep in mind that silicone lubricant is NOT to be used with silicone toys, or you risk ruining the texture and safety of this beautiful pleasure object. Also, make sure to store it away from other silicone toys to prevent a similar reaction.

I have not found that this toy collects a lot of dust and lint, but I do store it in a plastic bag completely separate from all of my other toys. If do find some particles on the toy, a quick rinse before use will wash them right off.
