Gigi - g-spot vibrator discontinued by LELO - review by BethanyLynn

The Gigi has been praised again and again as an excellent g-spot vibrator. The Gigi simply does not fit my anatomy correctly to stimulate my g-spot. Don't get me wrong, the Gigi is a very well made vibrator and I do highly recommend it. The Gigi is especially made for g-spot stimulation. When I first tried the Gigi, I did not get what the big deal was about this toy. I did not get an amazing orgasm from the Gigi. There was very little, if any, g-spot action when I used the Gigi. From reading numerous reviews, I figured there was something wrong with me-that I did not have a g-spot. After using other toys in search of my g-spot I did discover I had one, the Gigi just was not suited for my g-spot. I think the very ridged structure is what prevented me from stimulating my g-spot. Lots of women absolutely love the rigidness of the Gigi and that makes it great for them, but I need a bit of flexibility with my toys. Since I don't find having the Gigi in me as very pleasurable, I use it mainly for clitoral stimulation, which I find to be very good. The flattened tip made for g-spot stimulation rests perfectly on my clit. The Gigi is best suited for a woman searching for her g-spot, but can also be used for her clit. I would recommend the Gigi for a long, sensual relaxation session.

Gigi is made from Phthalate free silicone and the handle and controls are ABS plastic. When I first got my Gigi it had a slight charcoal type smell to it. After a few washes the smell went away. The silicone has a nice velvety feel to it. The texture is also very nice when lubricated. I like using the Gigi un-lubricated on my clit, the silicone drags and pulls on my clit for extra stimulation. The texture and material would be recommended for both beginners and advanced users. The material is very safe and easy to clean and care for.

As stated before, the Gigi does not work very well for me. The curvature of the Gigi makes uncomfortable and a little painful to insert and to take out. Once inside, the tip does not reach my g-spot and does not stimulate it. The Gigi is okay to thrust, but doesn't do much for me. The Gigi is very hard and ridged and does not have any flexibility to it at all. I'm not a big fan of hard dildos or vibrators, I like something that flexes and can be moved around the suit me better. I was very surprised at the size of the Gigi, I thought it would be a little bit bigger than what it is! I figured the size would be more like the size of the Elise. The size makes the Gigi very easy to insert. I find the length to be a little on the short size, when I wrap my hand around the handle, I also have to wrap my hand around a little bit of the insertable part, which interferes with how much I can insert and with thrusting. Gigi comes with a little silk pouch to be stored in and can be hid fairly easily. Gigi is not very discreet, it obviously looks like a vibrator. Gigi's design is very sleek and sophisticated, it does not look tacky and embarrassing like some sex toys. The Gigi is small enough that it could be easily traveled with. The Gigi has a unique locking feature, which prevent accidental turning on of the vibe when traveling, which could be very embarrassing. Just hold down all four of the controls on the control pad until the LED light fades off. To unlock the Gigi, hold all the buttons down again till it lights up.

The vibrations of the Gigi are hard to really tell where they originate from. I think The vibrations are located in the middle of the vibe, but the tip vibrates very nice too. The main function of the Gigi is for g-spot stimulation, which did not work out so well for me. I use the Gigi mostly for clitoral stimulation now, which works out fairly okay. I don't find the vibrations to be particularly intense, but they get the job done. The controls are very easy to use. When pressing the plus button the LED light surrounding the controls lights up. When I turn on my Gigi on the low vibration settings there is a low pitched screech that is a little annoying, but goes away as the vibrations increase. Hold down the plus button to increase vibrations. Use the minus button to decrease vibrations. Hit the up and down buttons to cycle through four different vibration modes. A handy feature about the Gigi is that while it is on you can mash all four buttons down at the same time to turn off the Gigi immediately instead of having to hold down the minus button. This comes in handy in case of an unexpected interruption. The Gigi is very quite and mine has a low pitched screech during the low setting of vibrations. The Gigi is not waterproof, so be careful when cleaning to not get water on the control pad or the plug for the charger.

Gigi is very easy to care for. The LELO website recommends to wash your Gigi soon after use with water and antibacterial soap. You can also use your favorite toy cleaner. Never use harsh cleaners such as alcohol. Pat dry your Gigi and left it air dry so you don't get fibers from your towel all over it. The Gigi should not be stored with other silicone toys. Gigi comes with a little silk pouch and the original box is also very nice for storing Gigi and the charger. Gigi is rechargeable, with a charge time of two hours for four hours of use. LELO toys come with a one year manufacturer warranty, incase anything were to happen to your Gigi. Since the Gigi is silicone, only water based lubricants should be used.

LELo packaging is very attractive. My box was turquoise with a real size picture of the Gigi on the back. After taking off the turquoise cover, there is a nice sturdy black box. After opening the box You can see the Gigi with a clear plastic cover over it. Under the Gigi is a user manual that tells you everything you need to know about your Gigi. There is also the warranty information, the charger, and a silk pouch. I highly recommend keeping the box to store the Gigi in and to keep the charger and information together. You can leave the box setting out and the only thing that would give it away would be LELO printed on the top. The packaging would be very good for giving the Gigi as a gift.
