Compact - dildo discontinued by Tantus - review by Oneirogenic

This toy is perfect for beginners or for those who might have experience but know their limits. It's small and lacks any serious girth, but it has a bulbous head and a set of ridges that make it a great toy for someone who wants something tiny but stimulating.

The Compact can be used for either vaginal or anal use, as it has a flared base that is easy to hang on to.

While this toy works well for people with smaller or less-experienced anatomy, it might not satisfy those who are more accustomed to larger toys. Despite this, it can still make a fun warm-up toy and slides in very easily with even just a little lube.

This toy is made from pure silicone, which makes it a dream to clean and sanitize. It also has no noticeable smell or taste, though it does have a tendency to pick up dust. Compared to some of our other silicone toys, though, it's actually not quite that sticky to the touch.

The toy itself is completely smooth with no noticeable seams. It is also very flexible and wobbly, which makes it very easy to insert for beginners and people with smaller anatomy.

The curved shaft and bulbous head of this toy allows for G-Spot stimulation, while the ridges add a little extra stimulation on an otherwise smooth toy.

The extreme flexibility of this toy can be seen as either a feature or drawback. For my partner, who is a pretty small person, the flexibility is good because there isn't much resistance, and it curves to the body very easily. For me, however, the lack of resistance makes this toy more of a warm-up than anything else. Neither of us have tried this toy anally, but its small, squishy design would probably make it fairly easy to get in.

Another thing I found to be a nice feature of this toy was the color choice. We bought the black version due to the fact that it is not only elegant, but gender-neutral. I can really appreciate a sex toy that comes in any other color than eye-searing ultramarine or hyper-femme pinks and lavenders!

The Compact is also very discreet, due to how slender it is. We don't even bother to put ours away most of the time because it can be hidden pretty easily behind a well-placed lamp or clock radio.

Depending on your preferences, this toy's size is either a strength or weakness. For my partner—who has a rather small, tight vaginal canal—it's the perfect size for light, pleasurable, pain-free play. Again, the flexibility is nice due to the fact that it is very unobtrusive. Because of how easy this toy is to use, it has become a staple in our sex life.

For a larger, more experienced orifice, however, this will probably not provide more than a pleasant tickle. It makes for some enjoyable foreplay, but if I am turned on enough, I can barely feel this toy inside of me.

The base is harness compatible, but only in harnesses that can accommodate a smaller O-ring.

This toy is very easy to clean and care for. The silicone is non-porous and can be completely sterilized with either soap and water or a quick boil. It doesn't have any nooks and crannies for things to get caught in, but like most silicone toys, it will attract pretty much anything that can stick to it.

Due to the fact that this toy is silicone, it should only be used with water-based lubricants because any silicone-based lubricants will degrade the material. For the same reason, this toy should not be stored up against other silicone toys.

Unfortunately, the packaging this came in was not very reusable. The plastic insert that holds the toy doesn't have any way to keep closed, so if you want to reuse it, you're going to have to figure out a way to keep it from popping open. Plan on either fashioning a way to keep the packaging closed like we did, or find another place to store it.

All in all, the Compact is good at what it does. If you expect a small, fun, easy-to-use dildo like we did, you shouldn't be disappointed.
