Cisco - dildo discontinued by Tantus - review by Red

The Cisco is freaking huge. I suppose that should have been clear from the dimensions in the description but there's really nothing compared to seeing and holding it to really drive home the insane hugeness of this dildo. And to be honest, calling it a dildo is a bit misleading: this is not a dildo, it is a monolith. I don't think the whole thing could be taken vaginally (and the excess dildo don't really make a great "handle"), so I see this more as an anal toy for anyone inclined towards very advanced anal play. For vaginal dildo play, there are better options more suited to the shallower depths of the vagina (Try instead the Tantus General, Vixen Randy or Happy Valley Hottie Xtra)

The Cisco is a long salami of a dildo decorated with six concentric rings that are a significant 1/4" and are about an inch apart. If you're keeping track of the math, that adds up to almost 11" in insertable length, which is capped with a very modest flared base that adds another inch. That makes it almost a foot in length, and it's a rather unapologetic foot - it is solid, strong, and mostly unwavering.

Aside from being the size of a large salami, the Cisco is actually reasonable (albeit on the extreme side) diameter wise at 2 1/8". It moves to this maximum diameter quickly and with the exception of the rings it stays at that throughout its entire length. The rings themselves add very little, size wise, but provides subtle yet alluring sensations that really help relieve the...intensity...involved in sticking something this large into your body. So basically, this toy represents a very different challenge for insertion than a really wide buttplug like Tex or A Bomb - length instead of width.

Safety is a concern with a toy this big. It's worth mentioning that the ass should be warmed up with a nice slow bit of forplay - with smaller toys, perhaps, or something else pleasant - and there should be lots and lots of lube on hand and in play. Being a quality silicone toy, you can use any type of lube you desire, but if you want to use silicone lube make sure its good quality and do a patch test first.

The base is almost unnecessary - it's not like this toy is going to go missing inside your ass; I just don't see how that could be possible. And speaking of spelunking, facts are facts - when you go this deep into your ass, you will encounter poo unless you douche. And hey, even then, you might. If you're afraid of a little mud, however, don't play in the sandbox. Using a condom with this toy is a good idea for ease of cleanup, but you'll want a magnum or some other XL condom.

Clean up of this toy is a breeze - soap and water, toy cleaner, whatever your fancy. The ridges are easy to clean, and if you wish to sanitize the toy it is pure silicone so you can boil for 10 minutes or soak in 10% bleach for 10 minutes. Dry well before storage but no special care is needed after that. The silicone does pick up hairs, so wrapping it in a lint free cloth isn't a bad idea.

Overall, the Cisco is an imposing toy. Overwhelmingly long but deliciously subtly textured so it kind of feels like really, really large anal beads. There is nothing else in my collection quite like it, and the levels of arousal and stimulation required for it to be taken the whole way in means that when its played with, its a very good time. But it's a lot of effort delving that deep anally, and I personally prefer a wide stretching sensation instead.
