This Tiger Earned Its Stripes!

The G4 Tiger by Fun Factory has been deliciously designed to hit all the right spots. This vibrator has been devised to stimulate the G-spot and, on the way, provide exciting sensations on the whole vagina. When fully inserted, the little part at the top and closest to the control handle can also provide a very pleasant, vibrating sensation to the clitoris and outer labia.

The Tiger's insertable part is made of silicone, while the control panel is made of plastic. The silicone portion has a pleasant, smooth and slightly porous feel; giving the overall texture a nice friction sensation. The use of (water-based) lubricant is always advised.

Here's where all the magic is made.

This G4 takes all the best from all the previous generations, and then adds a bit more.

This generation's design provides all the good things: the Tiger is rechargeable through a magnetic charger, also allowing the toy to be waterproof. The handle has been redesigned to have a very much appreciated loophole, which can make insertion and retraction a lot easier, specially during solo play.

Being the second vibrator I try, the sort-of-realistic shape of this toy provided for me the extra motivation I needed to give it a shot. Still, it keeps a very elegant and tasteful design. The Tiger's curves feel very comfortable inside the body, and the silicone material allows for more flexibility if needed. The little "bumps" at the top of the shaft add extra excitement while inserting it. Just play with it at your own pace - those ridges may hurt a bit when inserted with too much strength or retracted too fast.

The size of this toy was the best. I initially tried the Lelo Liv, and, although it did a decent job on the G-spot stimulation department, it fell short on all the rest of the vaginal area. When I unpacked the G4 Tiger, I felt a little intimidated at the looks of its size, which later proved to fit perfectly after initial stimulation.

This toy will surely please anyone looking for some enjoyable vibrations. It comes with three buttons for you to rotate around the patters and intensities to your preference. The handle also softly lights up to the touch, which to me is a nice, elegant detail, although you will not need to expect to be looking at the controls at all - they are easy to learn.

Speaking of the vibrations: although they can be quite powerful on their highest setting, the Tiger is not noisy at all. It will probably not be heard over a closed door.

Also, the internal batteries on this toy last quite long, around one hour while being always on. I am not so sure about the time required for recharging, I have just left it there over the evening to find it ready later at night.

Being made of silicone, just apply the basics:

- Use water-based lubricant, never silicone-based.
- Clean up can be done by washing with mild soap or using a toy cleaner and wipes. I personally prefer to do both, just in case.
- Store in a toy bag or in a place away from dust, lint and other fabrics (I have had no issues storing mine in the original box).
- Do not store close to other silicone toys at it may get damaged.

It comes in a cardboard box with internal plastic packaging. The box itself has a picture of the toy and also a window to look at the actual one, so, not very discreet.

All required instructions and the charger are included.

Overall, I am in love with how well designed this toy is and how greatly it performs. It may have a slightly high price tag but it comes to be absolutely worth it. Be ready to play with a high quality, tastefully designed vibrator that will surely last for long.
