Buck - probe discontinued by Tantus - review by ToyingCouple

Everyone should have a friend like Buck. Good ole Buck is always there for you... trusty, reliable, manly, strong yet soft. Willing to take on your dirtiest jobs and go the extra mile for you, Buck is the type of guy that always steps up to the plate and swings for the home run. Buck is the one that men look up to and women love to always have around.
Buck is comfortable in almost any environment and has been known to take on the tasks that other probes won't perform. He will be your back door man or your front door lover, but either way he always comes out clean as a whistle. Stay horny my friend!

The Buck dildo manufactured by Tantus is made from 100% silicone. Tantus calls it 'ultra premium platinum' silicone and it really does have a great texture to it. Super smooth and almost silky soft, this probe is completely tasteless, odorless, and phthalate free. A hard squeeze with your hands will cause a little deformation of the shaft but this toy has great firmness to it and certainly would never be called floppy. It really is quite like a real penis in the amount of give it has and 'firm yet flexible' would be a fitting description.

This toy is designed as an anal probe and has three graduated sections to it that start at 1 1/4" diameter and grow to slightly over 1 1/2". That really doesn't sound like a big size change; but, trust me, it's noticeable especially when Buck is burrowing inside your ass. Insert-able length is 5 1/4" with the total length including the base coming in at 6 1/2". That leaves you with a reasonable amount of silicone for stuffing into your orifices, which weighs about half of pound. That's enough material to satisfy most users whether they are seasoned veterans of relative newcomers to the sex toy scene. Each graduated section in the shaft of this probe is 1 3/4" long and the diameter change is very gently progressive which means that lube, relaxation, and patience should allow almost anyone to take all of this probe anally but still feel stuffed full. Tantus has done an excellent job molding Buck with no seam lines whatsoever and that's a rarity in the world of silicone or rubber sex toys. Kudos to them!
The base is fully 2 1/2" across, so losing this toy completely inside your butt is virtually impossible, which is a great safety feature. The wide base does become uncomfortable between the cheeks if you plan on keeping Buck inside for long periods of time like you would a plug (remember this is a probe!).
Harness use is possible because of the wide base but you will need a 2" ring or harness hole to allow the toy to fit. My husband enjoys pegging with this and the ridges feel great against the prostate. The non-realistic look is also a plus for all the men wanting anal pleasure without feeling like they've switched teams!

We both love Buck! This probe has been incredibly versatile. We’ve been very impressed with the texture and firmness of this probe. Both of us have used this toy anally and found it easy to insert completely up to the base while still feeling full. It fits well in one of my harnesses (that has a two inch hole); pegging has been good for my husband as long as I go slower than with a non-ridged dildo. I love watching his butt pucker as each bigger bubble slips inside. We have done double penetration with Buck in my ass and my husband taking me vaginally in missionary style this was wonderful. When we tried this doggy-style the wide base of the probe made stroking difficult for my husband, as the base was in the way and rubbed his cock uncomfortably. You live, you learn!
I like this toy for vaginal use very much as well (obviously after a thorough cleaning/sterilization) and have been known to enjoy some good solo sessions with Buck, but also like to have a bullet or other small vibe on my clitoris at the same time. For all that, Buck does he does not vibrate.

Made from 100% silicone this is a toy designed to last a lifetime and one that is easy to care for. Lube-wise you must stay away from silicone ingredients. As wonderful as Buck is he will dissolve if he comes in contact with it! Water-based lubes are recommended and thicker gel styles are great for anal play with Buck (Sliquid Organics Gel being our personal favorite).
Cleaning this probe is very simple and even with the graduated bubbles of the shaft there really isn't a difficult ridge for icky stuff to get trapped. Sterilization is recommended especially if sharing or switching orifices and this is accomplished easily by boiling or disinfecting with a 10% bleach solution. Buck is also dishwasher safe, but remember to empty the machine before your company tries to put in a coffee cup. Yeah, there is a story to be told...
For storage, Tantus recommends 'displaying openly', but guests would easily recognize Bucks versatile usage. We keep this probe in a dedicated zip-lock bag away from our other toys. Silicone can be ruined if left in contact with other toy materials, such as jelly.

Tantus has a minimalist ideal when it comes to packaging which is wonderful. Simple and great for the environment, Buck came clad in only a plastic bag with a cardboard fold-over sealing the top. The only information present is some description of why '100% ultra premium silicone' is good for the body and that this product should be 'displayed openly'. I agree about the great silicone material, but my in-laws may be a little shocked about an anal probe on the fireplace mantle!

This probe definitely has become one of the favorites in our collection. I've said that often before but this toy just exudes quality and really can take on almost any job. Buck is almost like a member of the family now! And, really, he's seen more than most of the family ever will too...
