Cush O2 - realistic strap-on dildo discontinued by Tantus - review by Nissa Nissa

The O2 Cush from Tantus is an amazing dual-density toy and has become one of my new favorite and more adventurous toys to date! Without a doubt this toy will please medium to advanced users, but beginners beware. The soft squishy head sounds promising but it's firm inner core might cause you a bit of trouble.

I decided to get the O2 Cush after its release due to the smaller size (or so I thought) and the less pronounced head in comparison to the critically acclaimed O2 Revolution. The design seemed more pleasing to the eye, in my opinion, and it seemed to be right up my alley.

The Cush is constructed with Tantus' signature dual density silicone, meaning the toy has a soft and squishy (but not too squishy) outer layer wrapped around a firmer silicone core.

The material is silkier than I would've presumed given the matte look of the toy in the picture, it seemed slightly similar to the texture featured on the head of the O2 Adam. The firm inner core allows the toy to feel stiff but also have a familiar give to the surface, much like squeezing a firm cock.

Being high grade silicone the toy has no smell or taste and is non-porous. Another great thing about any silicone product is the ability to warm with use and retain that warmth. A great tip I got from another side featuring silicone toys is to warm it with hot water.

This toy looks like it'd be highly textured but there is really not as threatening as it looks. I would not readily suggest this for true beginners because of the girth, but I'm sure advanced users would love the Cush.

The O2 Cush is 7" long with a usable length of 6 3/4", he is 5 1/2" in circumference which translates to 1 3/4" in diameter. This toy is one of the thickest I own and least forgiving, but let me explain. The toy looks a bit girthier than my Johnny Vixskin and given it's larger inner core it also feels larger. The Johnny's O2-like material compresses more than you'd think, leaving the O2 Cush feeling larger. This toy really filled me up.

The shape and the beautiful folds? Hm. I like to look at the Cush and think of it more like a veiled statue, the ridge being where the fabric slightly creases over the toy. While it is quite a straight forward toy, as in no curves and little to no bells and whistles the size is enough for me to rub my g-spot the right way.

The toy is not realistic in the matter of it being a dick doppelganger but it does have a phallic shape and rather recognizable head. The size alone means it probably shouldn't be the first choice for a true beginner but it's thick core is more than enough to keep the size kings and queens interested.

The world would be a better place, in my opinion, if every silicone toy came equipped with a suction cup but that's just me. The toy is great on its own and good enough for me. I do enjoy riding my toys more than thrusting, only because I can't find a super comfortable or optimum position to do so. Once I invest in a Liberator Bon Bon (which I have been meaning to do since forever) I will probably never grumble about a suction cup-less toy again.

As I talked about above, this toy made me feel very stretched and more than I had ever felt before. It might have been a bit overkill at first because I wasn't entire warmed up but after a while I was riding it hard and fast. I had one of the best orgasms I have had in a while.

The Tantus O2 Cush is 100% Premium Silicone, baby! This is the best material for its safety rating and the ability to be soft and firm at the same time. Clean up is a breeze, just boil the toy or clean it off with mild soap and water.

It is usually suggested that you store silicone toys away from other materials because they don't tend to play well with others. Tantus has expressed that silicone toys can safely congregate with other silicone toys (only true silicone so play it safe) but many other EF users store their O2s in zip-lock bags, specially made toy bags or the original packaging. Pick your poison.

Use only water based lubes with any silicone toys, including this one. Silicone lubes seem to react with most if not all silicone toys, causing the toy to bubble, melt or become icky and sticky. Also remember to use a condom if sharing this toy immediately with anyone else or your other orifices.
