Oh Mikey You're So Fine

Mikey is a rather versatile dildo. It can be used vaginally and thanks to its flared based it can also safely be used anally. And because it is made with Tantus' platinum silicone, it is tasteless so if you want to use it to practice your oral skills, you can do that too. And last but not least because of the flared and flat base, Mikey is perfect to use in a strap-on harness.

Mikey is made from Tantus O2, 100% Ultra-Premium Platinum Silicone. That's a mouthful but what it means is that it is non-toxic, hypoallergenic and phthalates-free silicone. This silicone is tasteless and odorless, which is amazing!

I would call Mikey a semi-realistic dildo. The head of the dildo is shiny while the rest of it is matte. The contrast is striking on the chocolate version of this dildo - I can see my reflection in it! The head also includes a slit simulating the opening on a actual cock. The shaft is not perfectly smooth but rather has a slightly textured feel to it with a vein running along the base. All of these feature are aesthetic and I didn't feel they added anything to the stimulation provided by the toy.

Mikey is soft but firm. Let me explain: the silicone gives a little when you squeeze it and you can bend it quite easily but the core is firm like a real cock.

I think this toy gets as close to feeling like a real cock as silicone can be.

Just keep in mind, as with all silicone, it attracts every piece of lint within a 20 mile radius.

What's not to love about the design of this dildo? It looks like a fairly realistic cock. It should be mentioned that it does have a little more girth to it - something I absolutely love - but if you prefer slimmer dildos this might be a little much. I did however find that Mikey was just a little too short for me to really feel full while using it. I did appreciate that I could have the girth with this toy but still be able to thrust while using it without experiencing any kind of discomfort.

I think this is ideal for someone who enjoys a shorter, thicker dildo.

The best part of this toy besides the way the silicone feels, is that it fits nicely into an O-Ring harness. I didn't get to try it out on anyone but it laid perfectly flat against my mons and it was quite comfortable. So solo, with a partner manually, or in a harness, Mikey delivers.

Mikey is made from pure silicone so it is safe. Silicone is non-porous. To clean it you can boil it or put it in the dishwasher (without soap). As always if you are going to share, it's best to disinfect, if you can, or at least use a condom between partners.

As for storing it, try not to put it in a cloth bag because Mikey will pick up every piece of lint. I recommend rinsing the toy before use to get off anything it might have picked up in storage. I would suggest a box or a plastic bag to minimize the lint issue.

Water-based lubes only please!

Mikey comes in very simple packaging that sadly leaves a little to be desired. It comes in clear plastic box so the product is completely visible but beyond that initial opening, it's not much use. Perhaps it was my excitement to get into the toy but I managed to rip the box getting the dildo out the first time.

That said, Tantus has supplied plenty of information with regarding safety, care and cleaning as well as referring you to their website for more information.

The packaging isn't pretty but it's functional.
