G-force - contoured probe discontinued by Tantus - review by Sincerely yours, N

The Tantus G-Force is a long, simple dildo with a prominent curve. Although it is found in the prostate section of EF's selection, the name implies that it can be used for g-spot stimulation as well. I will be reviewing it in terms of how it fares for vaginal use. It is, however, safe to use anally due to the length of its handle if you insist upon it.



This dildo is perfect for both solo and partner play. The long handle allows for more versatility than traditional flared bases, thus opening more options for solo play in terms of position and comfort. Due to its design, it should have no difficulty conforming to anatomy. During partner play, it fits well with the position of your partner's hand in many toy-play positions. Though this toy is not harness-compatible, it can still be used for a variant of pegging.

Because this is a dildo and not a vibrator, the G-Force is entirely waterproof and can be used anywhere. It is entirely silent and, thus, perfect for roommate situations.

The G-Force is made out of Tantus's unique blend of silicone. Silicone already ranks 10 on Eden's safety scale for being non-porous, phthlates-free, latex-free, hypo-allergenic, and food-grade, but I would venture to say that Tantus's silicone is among the safest of the safe.

As with all silicone toys, avoid using silicone-based lubricant and storing it touching silicone toys. Because Tantus silicone is high-quality, feel free to spot-test high-quality silicone lubricants on it if you would like to use them; many will not react. Also, Tantus themselves store all of their dildos together, so you can be sure that it will not react with other high-quality silicone toys. Be wary of toys that pretend to be of 100% silicone though!

Although this toy is not squishy, it is fairly flexible. I can wrap it into a spiral two circles large and could probably manage more if I tried. This allows it to conform to the anatomy of more users than rigid toys. In use, I felt it rub against my recently discovered g-spot, which not all of my toys can do.

I find it incredible that a single piece of silicone can have as much of a variety in texture as the G-Force. The insertable portion is incredibly smooth whereas the handle is matte and easy to grip even with lubricant. There is a little drag on both sections, but this is easily combated on the insertable section by using a little bit of lubricant. I think the drag is a good thing though, as it allows this toy to provide more g-spot stimulation than other toys of its size and flexibility. Sadly, this toy does collect more lint than most of my other Tantus toys, but I can forgive this fault; just be sure to rinse it before use.

This toy has a length of 11 inches, 7 of which are insertable, with a diameter of 1 1/8 inches and a girth of 3 1/2 inches. Although the length seems a little extreme, you do have to consider that the dildo's handle as a portion of the length. If your g-spot is shallow (as most are), you do not have to insert the entire insertable portion in order to enjoy this dildo, as the diameter of the neck remains constant. If you are like me and are tired of dildos with difficult-to-store bases, the handle will be a life-saver - although it makes the toy longer, it does not make it any wider.

For your convenience, here is the G-Force next to a ruler:


I liked the girth of this toy. It is smaller than average, but the curve and drag make up for this. I have found that many revered g-spot toys are relatively small in girth, so this did not bother me in the slightest. Insertion, with a little bit of lubricant, is relatively easy and should not cause problems for beginners. Advanced users, on the other hand, can still enjoy this toy's shape or use it anally. After all, there are thinner toys widely considered good for g-spotting.

Here is the G-Force next to the popular SSA Glass Amethyst.

Note the larger girth and less dramatic curve of the G-Force. Regardless, it is still very effective, and I feel that both people for whom the Amethyst works and those for whom it does not will benefit.

Because this is a dildo and not a vibrator, there is no need to worry about the noise level, intensity, or quality of the vibrations or about a power-source. How well this toy performs depends entirely on you.

That being said, I believe that this toy is versatile enough to be enjoyed by most of its users. The g-spot curve is prominent and yet flexible, the size is able to be used by most people. Furthermore (and back to vaginal use), regardless of whether your g-spot is deep, shallow, or you just prefer hitting your cervix, the length of this toy will allow you to accomplish your goal. If you have a g-spot and some patience, this toy will find it, even for the pickiest of g-spots such as mine.

Even if you lack a vagina, this toy is safe to be used anally and not too girthy for that purpose; I imagine that the curve will work well to stimulate prostates.

In my opinion, however, the best feature of the G-Force is the handle - it makes it easy for me to maneuver this toy around however I like it and does not tire out my hand like some bases do. However, I would caution you against holding this dildo by the handle during insertion, as it can make insertion difficult with the toy trying to escape, but otherwise it makes me wonder why more toys do not come with handles.

Tantus silicone is easy to clean. It can be bleached with a 10% solution, boiled, washed with soap and water, cleaned with a sex toy cleaner, or even put into the dishwasher. It is a lint magnet, so I would recommend at least rinsing it (if not washing it completely) before use to make sure that you are not putting dirt into your body. Regardless of the lint, it is still easy to clean thoroughly.

Storage for this toy is complicated. I, personally, consider it easy because I do not have a length limit for my toys, but if you have a short toy-chest this might not be an easy toy for you to store. However, the lack of a base makes it easy to store in tighter spaces.

Keep in mind that this is a silicone toy, so it's generally not recommended to use silicone-based lubricant or store it touching other silicone toys. Always spot test if you insist on not following these suggestions. Water-based and oil-based lubricants are safe, though, and provide an effective alternative.

The G-Force comes in typical Tantus packaging. The packaging is very minimalistic but not discreet at all, but, at the same time, is very pleasant to the eye. Instead of showing you a picture of the dildo, the packaging is clear and allows you to see it yourself - they don't need to describe it and assume that you know what it is for. The packaging is not meant for storage, nor does it come with a storage pouch, but personally I don't mind that Tantus does not bother with those things.

I just recently located my g-spot, so I did not have high hopes for this toy finding it immediately. However, I was wrong. Almost as soon as I slid in the G-Force, I felt the familiar sensation of having found my g-spot. I really appreciated the versatility of the handle, as it made it much easier to maneuver around and experiment with different sensations.
