Deuce 2 - dildo discontinued by Tantus - review by Jul!a

Deuce a wonderfully crafted dildo from Tantus that is sure to please anybody who likes their toys a little girthier. It's made from Tantus's lovely silicone and is very firm, but still has a good amount of squish and give to it. The silicone is fairly matte, and while it's non-porous and phthalate free, it also likes to pick up some lint. It's not the worst thing I've ever seen, but it will generally require a good rinse before use. It can also hold on to some scents, especially if used anally. If you find that yours is holding on to scents you're not so fond of, give it a really thorough washing and let it air out for a few days. This should help a whole lot.

Deuce is a total of 7" long with the base, and you can easily insert about 6 1/2". The head has a slightly tapered design so initial penetration is fairly easy, and inserting past the two very pronounced ridges isn't even that bad. Both ridges are just over 1/4" tall, so they're very, very pronounced. If it was smaller than 5" around it might not be as bad, but with the big girth, it's very possibly that it'll catch on your pubic bone during thrusting. The base of the shaft goes up to 5 1/4" around, and while it isn't huge by any means, it's still a decently sized dildo.

It also comes with a lovely bullet as well. The bullet is about 2" long or so, and runs on 3 LR44 batteries. It's got one mode of vibration, and while not the loudest ever, isn't exactly whisper quiet either. Think like those really annoying cell phones that you can hear vibrate from across the room. It's also got a really nice o-ring on it, meaning that you can safely play in the shower as well. The vibrations can be felt through the whole toy, but they don't really feel like anything. You can tell that they're there, but they aren't going to turn it into a vibrator by any means.

The fact that Deuce has a nice base means that it's safe for anal use as well. You'll definitely want to warm up to it, and use a condom unless you want to take the time to clean out the ridges real well, because they can catch lubes and other fluids. You can either use a fingernail through a washcloth, or a soft toothbrush. Otherwise you can just wash it with warm soapy water in the sink. Your best bet is to use a water based lube, but if you really want to use a silicone based, make sure that you spot test it on the base of the toy first to make sure there won't be a reaction that could ruin your toy.

The packaging is pretty nice and very typical of Tantus. Deuce sits inside a molded clamshell with the bullet, and all that goes inside a plastic box that tells you about Tantus's silicone and not necessarily about the toy itself. It can be given as a gift or used as storage if you like.

I have a horrible habit of not accurately visualize dimensions of things before I buy them, and I apparently did that with the Deuce as well. I did a whole bunch of research and thought I could handle this, but with the ridges, I just can't do this one comfortably. The size itself is just at the borderline of girth that I like, but those ridges just catch on my pubic bone so painfully. I've only been able to use it a few times because of that, and I'm honestly considering giving it to a friend because every time I use it, I remember how much all I can do is let it sit inside of me because thrusting hurts.

If you like ridges and girth, it would be a good idea to buy this before it's gone forever.
