Goddess - strap-on dildo by Tantus - review by charletnarouh

A moderate to large size dildo with an optional bullet vibe. It is not great for g-spot stimulation if you have a shallow g-spot, but if you like a little bit of girth to your toys and a deeper penetration, this is a great dildo. It's great in a harness, since it has a flared base. It's great for positions in which a toy curved for a g-spot isn't ideal. I find that toys with a g-spot curve don't work well with a harness in doggy-style position, for example. Because this toy is a little straighter than a lot of the ones available, it's a great solution. It's not terribly realistic looking while still having plenty of ridges and things to it for added sensation. Probably a bit much for most anal users unless you like a lot of girth that way, but it's definitely not a starter anal toy!

Like most Tantus toys this is made from a very pliable silicone. It's definitely firm enough to do the task but soft enough to be very comfortable. The texture, like many silicone toys, can be a little draggy without lube (use a water based, not silicone!) and of course it attracts lint. It has a lot of ridges that add to the texture to make this a fun toy for thrusting and somewhat deeper penetration.

Despite having something of a "head" on this toy, it actually has a somewhat feminine appearance. The ridges along it are curvy and swirly and kind of pretty. The swirling in the color of the toy is somewhat unique in each individual toy and is very pretty. It has 6 inches of insertable length with a diameter of 1.5 inches and a flared base that makes it o-ring compatible for use with harnesses. For me the size is among the largest I can comfortably enjoy but at 6 inches in length, most users will probably find it somewhat average. I was initially attracted to this toy because most silicone dildos in this size range are seriously curved for g-spot stimulation. That is great, but there are positions when using a strap-on where that's not ideal. This toy has a more "straight forward" approach that works well in these situations. There is a place in the base of the toy to insert a bullet vibe that comes with the toy. This can be conveniently removed for cleaning or if you simply don't want to use the toy as a vibrator, which adds to the toy's versatility in my opinion.

In use, this toy feels terrific. The ridges look a bit severe but really don't feel that way during use. It works very well in a harness and with its somewhat straight shape is ideal for positions where a sharp upward curve isn't ideal; doggy-style for instance. It's not the ideal toy for g-spot stimulation, especially if yours is not terribly deep, but if used at the right angle it won't neglect it either. It's definitely ideal for someone who either has a deeper g-spot or wants more of a deeper thrust. The included bullet vibe is powerful enough to be fun but it's not a multispeed, multifunction vibrator or anything super fancy.

The great thing about silicone toys is how easy they are to take care of. The fact that the vibrating part of this toy can be removed for cleaning makes it even easier. With the vibe removed the entire toy is submersible and easy to clean. It can be boiled or run through the dishwasher. It can also be as simple as soap and water or a toy cleaner. As with all silicone toys, don't use silicone lubes or products containing silicone on it and don't store it in contact with other silicone toys or it will degrade. Tantus doesn't include any kind of storage solution with the toy so you're on your own to figure out storage for this toy. No matter where I keep it though, it seems to accumulate dust, lint, hair, etc. The silicone is like a magnet for it. So even though I wash it before putting it away, I always have to clean it again when I take it out.

This toy comes in Tantus' typical functional but uninspired clear plastic packaging.

My and partner's experience with this toy has been great. I wanted something to use in positions where a sharp upward g-spot curve didn't work so well and this does the trick. It's a little larger than most of the toys in my toy box but I got it to add some variety and that it does. I have played with it solo and it's fun that way too but my favorite use is in a harness for doggy-style.
