Last week I fell in love with the Tantus Cush Dildo. This week I’m reviewing another Tantus product, the Tantus Delta from FunWares.

The Tantus Delta is a vibrating dildo with an unusual shape. It has an insertable portion and an external portion, like a rabbit vibrator. It’s a bit different from a traditional rabbit vibrator because neither part moves but rather transmits vibrations from the included bullet vibrator that fits into the bottom of the dildo. The Tantus Delta is definitely on the small side at 5″ long with approximately 2.5″ insertable, and a diameter of .75″. This makes it great for beginners and those who prefer smaller sex toys. As you can see in one of the images, it’s quite soft and very flexible.

Made of 100% Ultra-Premium Platinum Silicone, the Tantus Delta is latex and phthalate-free, hypoallergenic, and body-safe. It is super easy to care for and clean. You can use your favorite sex toy cleaner, warm water and antibacterial soap, or a 10% bleach solution. You can also wash it in the top drawer of your dishwasher without soap or boil it for 3-5 minutes, just be sure to remove the vibrating bullet. As the Tantus Delta can be sterilized with bleach or by boiling, you can share it between non-fluid bonded partners.

It is generally best to use water-based lubricant with the Tantus Delta as silicone-based lube could have a negative chemical reaction with the silicone of the Delta and cause it to become tacky. You can always do a patch test at the base of the Tantus Delta to see how your silicone-based lubricant and the vibrating dildo will interact. I have not done so as I just prefer to use water-based lube with my silicone sex toys.

The Tantus Delta comes in the typical Tantus packaging, a flexible, see-through plastic box. This box is not at all discreet as it is see-through and says, “The World’s Best Soft Toys For Adults” on it. So, it may not be best to leave it laying around. The box is ok for storage but not great as it takes up quite a bit more room than the actual Tantus Delta and isn’t the sturdiest thing in the world. You may be better off using a toy storage pouch or plastic baggie.

You can use the Tantus Delta with or without the included vibrating bullet. The vibrating bullet is about 2.25″ long and 2.25″ in circumference. It comes with the three required LR44 batteries. I greatly appreciate this as these batteries can be a bit of a pain to find. This bullet vibrator is the exact same bullet that comes with the Tantus Zing. It can be tricky to slide the bullet in and out of the Tantus Delta so I recommend using a few drops of water-based lubricant to make the bullet easier to manage. As I always forget to do this and find myself constantly struggling to get the damn bullet out, I cannot stress this enough. The vibrating bullet is a one speed and is easily turned on and off with a small push button on the bottom of the unit. The vibrations from the bullet are high-pitched and buzzy, not my favorite type of vibration for clit stimulation.

The excellent Tantus silicone transmits the vibrations surprisingly well, though I do find them a bit too buzzy for my taste. The shape is good for g-spot stimulation though I wish the dildo was a bit firmer where it hits my g-apot. The .5″ base is great for thrusting. It is easy to hold on to and grip as well as making the Tantus Delta ideal for harness use.

I generally like Tantus sex toys so I had high hopes for the Tantus Delta, though I was uncertain about the shape. I figured it would either work really well or be a disaster. Lo and behold, it works great for me. I usually prefer toys with more girth but something about this shape just works. As I’m thrusting the Tantus Delta inside me I can feel the internal piece rubbing against my g-spot while the external piece rubs against my clit just right. The added vibrations add to these sensations and take everything to the next level. I think the vibrations might be too buzzy for constant contact with my clit but they work just fine for thrusting. There is enough vibration and rubbing stimulation to get me off without numbing my clit in the process because the contact is intermittent.

Tantus Delta Pros:
• Great silicone
• Unusual shape
• Fits my body well
• Good for those who like smaller sized toys
• Comes with vibrating bullet
• Can be used with a harness
• Not a dust magnet

Tantus Delta Cons:
• Bullet provides buzzy vibrations
• Bullet could be stronger
• Hard to find batteries

The Tantus Delta is made of a beautiful pearly pink silicone that is surprisingly not a dust magnet like some of Tantus’ silicone. Tantus makes high quality sex toys and I love that they are made in the U.S. I like the strange shape of the Tantus Delta and how it provides multiple types of stimulation by rubbing against my g-spot and my clit along with providing vibration. My biggest complaint about the Tantus Delta is the buzziness of the vibrating bullet. I’d prefer it came with a stronger bullet with deeper, rumblier vibrations. However, it does get me off and is a successful, if unusual, rabbit vibrator.

FunWares has great prices, discreet shipping, and often ships the same day as you order. So, head on over to FunWares to pick up your own Tantus Delta which just happens to be on sale right now. Not only that, but use code: FIDDLER to receive 10% off your entire order!

For a while now I’ve been hearing all about dual density silicone and I have been very curious. So when the opportunity to review the Tantus Cush from Babeland came up, I jumped at it.

Amongst my dildos, the Tantus Cush is fast becoming a favorite. It is one of Tantus’ O2 dildos, which means it is dual density. There is a soft, squishy, plush layer of silicone over a firm inner core, giving the Cush a very different feel from other dildos. This top layer, which is a milky white, is extremely giving and squashable. The inner purple core is very firm Tantus silicone. It really does make the Cush feel unusual. It is giving to a point and then it just stops. This is meant to make it feel more like a real, live penis. The color is also quite fun with the dark purple silicone showing through the milky outer layer.

The Tantus Cush is 7″ long with a diameter of 1.75″. It has a pronounced coronal ridge and a significant ridge about midway down on the shaft. The head is slightly pointy but mostly made of the soft, squishy silicone so it’s not at all sharp. I just love how the soft silicone squashes in my hand. It’s like one of those squishy stress dolls. It’s just fun. The Tantus Cush has a thick and solid base making it perfect to use with a harness. This base also makes anal play possible as it will keep the dildo from slipping too far into the anus. Always be sure to sterilize the Cush when switching from anal to vaginal play.

The Tantus Cush comes in the typical Tantus packaging, a clear lightweight plastic box. You can easily see the dildo inside the box so it’s really not good for hiding it away. It isn’t the most sturdy box in the world and it does take up quite a bit more room than a storage bag or plastic baggie so it’s not the greatest box for storage, but it also isn’t the worst. Inside the box the Cush Dildo sits in a plastic clamshell. The clamshell in my box is obviously for a smaller dildo and also has a little place for a bullet vibrator. This is apparently a standard clamshell used for other Tantus products as well. I am not a huge fan of Tantus packaging, but I am a big fan of their sex toys, which is what’s important.

While this is an O2 dual density dildo, the Tantus Cush is still made of Tantus Ultra-Premium Platinum silicone. This high quality silicone is latex and phthalate-free, hypoallergenic, and body-safe. The Tantus Cush is completely odorless and tasteless and can be easily cared for and cleaned. Like other silicone products you can wash it with warm water and antibacterial soap, your favorite sex toy cleaner, or a 10% bleach solution. As the Cush has no moving parts, you can also boil it for three to five minutes and wash it in the top drawer of your dishwasher (without soap). This makes the Cush very versatile and easy to use between partners, as well as both vaginally and anally.

I use water-based lubricant with the Tantus Cush as it is 100% silicone and therefore can react with the silicone-based lube. However, you can always do a patch test at the base of the dildo to determine if your silicone-based lubricant is compatible. If the Cush gets sticky or tacky, wash the lube off right away and stick with water-based. I find less drag with this dual density silicone than with traditional Tantus silicone, but I do still require lubrication. It just makes the Cush all slippery and slidey which generally feels better.

I love how this dildo feels inside me. As I slowly thrust, I can feel the girth of the Tantus Cush gently spreading me and I really like this feeling. I feel the give of the top layer of squashy silicone and the firmness of the core beneath it. To me, sex toys always feel significantly different than a live penis but there is something more similar about the Tantus Cush. It doesn’t feel the same but it is definitely closer. I like to use the Tantus Cush inside me with a vibe on my clit, like the We-Vibe Touch, which is one of my favorite clit vibes. The fullness of the dildo inside me is a wonderful added sensation to the clit stimulation.

I know the coronal ridge on this dildo is designed for g-spot stimulation and I get quite a good amount considering the Tantus Cush is not a curved sex toy. However, I don’t get the same kind of stimulation I do from other toys that are curved. The mild g-spot stimulation I get when using the Tantus Cush is an added bonus but it’s not the primary sensation. Nonetheless, it does add to the overall greatness of this dildo. The squashy firmness, the fullness, and the g-spot stimulation all together create a variety of sensations that I really enjoy.

Tantus Cush Pros:
• Awesome dual density silicone
• Feels great inside me
• Girthy
• Mild g-spot stimulation
• Fun color and design

Tantus Cush Cons:
• Might be too girthy for some

Overall, the Tantus Cush is just a great dildo for me. I love the dual density silicone. The soft giving layer over the firm core feels wonderful and is quite different from my other dildos. I really am looking forward to trying more dildos like the Cush. Due to the girth of this dildo, the Tantus Cush is not for beginners and may require some warm up with a smaller dildo or vibrator. Even more advanced users may require some warm up if you are not accustomed to thicker sex toys. I do not need to warm up with something else first, I can go straight to the Cush as I do not find it too large and I enjoy the stretching feeling.

Pick up your own Tantus Cush at Babeland. If the you like the sound of the Cush but aren’t into the purple color and want something more realistic, try the Tantus Luke or the Tantus Adam. Both are from the Tantus O2 line with the amazing dual density silicone but are less fantastical in looks.

MyPleasure has recently started carrying a new line of glass sex toys called Joyful Pleasure. I really love glass toys so I was very happy to get my hands on the Twister.

The Twister is a hand blown glass massager that is designed in Europe and handmade in China, though Joyful Pleasure is based in California. It is made of clear glass with an opaque raised black swirl on the shaft and raised black bumps on the base. It also has a rather pronounced head. The Twister is 6″ in length from the bottom of the handle to the top of the scored head. Approximately 4.25″ of the Twister is insertable and it is 1.5″ in diameter. The handle is slightly over 1.5″ in length. According to my ancient little postage scale, it weighs about 10.5 ounces, so it is a hefty little thing.

Joyful Pleasure’s packaging is quite simple. The Twister comes in a cardboard box with a little window on the front through which you can see the toy. The box also has images of the Twister on both sides and text on the back with a fair amount of information. It is quite clear this box houses a sex toy so you may not want to leave it laying about where just anyone can see it.

According to the back of the Joyful Pleasure box, the Twister is fracture-resistant. I assume this is due to type of glass from which it is made. However, there is no further information on the box or the website for me to share with you.

Glass is a really awesome material for sex toys for so many reasons. It is latex and phthalate-free, non-porous, body-safe, and hypoallergenic. While people can develop allergies to some of the materials used to make sex toys, I have yet to run across someone who is allergic to glass. Glass is super easy to clean as well. You can simply wash it with antibacterial soap and warm water, your favorite sex toy cleaner, a 10% bleach solution, or wash it in the dishwasher. Just be careful when handling it as you don’t want to bang it against hard objects, like sinks or counters. I know the Twister is supposed to be fracture-resistant but that doesn’t mean you want to go around banging it against things. Another wonderful thing about glass is that is it compatible with all lubricants so you can use whatever type of lube you want with your Twister.

Glass is also great for sensation play, something that I really enjoy. You can quickly and easily change the temperature of your Twister by running it under hot or cold water or soaking it in a bowl of either. The glass will hold the temperature for a good while before it slowly adjusts to your body temperature.

The biggest issue with glass is that it needs to be stored carefully. I prefer padded storage bags and I wish the Twister came with one. Right now, I am storing it inside its box and that has been fine. You just want to make sure you are careful with your Twister when storing it. Also be sure to look it over carefully before and after use. If you do find any cracks or chips, dispose of it. Do not use a glass sex toy that shows any sort of damage. Having said this, I own quite a few glass sex toys and I have never damaged a single one.

One of the main reasons I was interested in this particular piece from Joyful Pleasure was the handle. The Twister has a small off-center handle which is designed to allow you to twist the Massager inside of you. This seems good in theory and was the entire reason I wanted to try out this Massager. The Twister looks like other glass dildos I’ve seen that are often called “juicers”. I had always assumed this was because you would twist them around like you would a juicer. Unfortunately, the handle does not work well for twisting or “juicing” for me at all. Trying to twist the massager is just too awkward and I cannot get any motion going in this manner. The motion just ends up being very jerky and not at all smooth. In fact, I get really frustrated every time I try to spin the Twister inside me. I can’t make it work and it drives me crazy. I’m not sure if I am just too uncoordinated to make this work right or if the Twister really is meant to be used with a partner. The handle is super awesome for thrusting though, which I hadn’t bothered considering before using it. I was just so excited about the juicing aspect.

Some people may consider 4.25″ too short to mbe a good dildo. It is short, but what is great about this length is that I can thrust the Twister as hard as I want without coming close to hitting my cervix.

As it has a flared base, the Twister can also be used anally. The short length makes it good to use as a plug but it will probably be to short to stimulate a man’s prostate if you were to want to use it that way. You can sterilize your Twister with the previously mentioned 10% bleach solution which make switching between anal and vaginal use easy as pie. Of course, using a condom anally will also make this very easy to do. Using condoms with your Twister or sterilizing it will also allow you to use it between partners.

Twister Pros:
• Glass
• Handle
• Pronounced head
• Good for sensation play
• Can be used vaginally and anally

Twister Cons:
• Doesn’t twist for me
• No storage bag

While I was disappointed with the lack of actual twisting, the handle on the Twister is pretty great for thrusting, and my issues may be user error. The handle makes a short dildo seem not so short in use. As I have mentioned, glass is excellent for a variety reasons and I love sensation play. I’m particularly fond of cold play. The Twister is attractive and seems well-made. The shape works well for me, especially the pronounced head of the massager. I’m disappointed there is no storage bag included. I know, I always say that, but it’s even more important when the sex toy is made of glass. Overall, the Twister is a nice little massager that can be used either vaginally or anally which makes it quite versatile.

I am a bit conflicted on how to rate the Twister. An important part of this type of toy is the twisting motion which was a total failure for me. However, it does end up working well in other ways. If it weren’t for the twisting fail I’d give the Twister four beans, but it loses one bean due to that disappointment.

You can pick up your own Twister as well as check out the other Joyful Pleasure massagers at MyPleasure. Plus, right now you will receive a free Sensual Essence Silk Lubricant with your Joyful Pleasures purchase!

A while back I did a Spotlight on the new Fleshlight Freaks. I thought some of them were well, freaky, and some were cool and I was really into the Cyborg and the Drac dildos. I had long given up hope of getting my hands on one of these cool dildos when lo and behold I won the Drac from the very cool Kara_Sutra and SheVibe.

I realize these Freaks may not be everyone’s cup of tea, and as I said, I’m not into all of them. However, I do like unusual sex toys and the Drac is definitely that. While it may just be a standard dildo, it certainly doesn’t look like one.

The Fleshlight Freaks Dildos are Fleshlight’s first foray into the dildo market and I think they’ve done a great job. The Drac is made of high-grade platinum cured silicone that feels just awesome. It is both firm and squashy at the same time, and is a pleasure to have inside my body. Like most silicone, it does have a tendency to pick up dust and lint here and there but it is not as bad some of my other dildos and vibrators. Silicone is a great material for sex toys because it is latex and phthalate-free, non-porous, hypoallergenic, and body-safe.

The silicone is super easy to care for and clean, especially as there are no moving parts in the Drac, which makes it waterproof. You can wash it with antibacterial soap and warm water, use your favorite sex toy cleaner, wash it in the top drawer of your dishwasher without soap, or sterilize it with a 10% bleach solution or by boiling it for 3-5 minutes. The fact that you can sterilize it makes it a great option for sharing between partners, as well using it both vaginally and anally.

Remember, as the Drac is made of 100% silicone it is a good idea to use it with water-based lubricant rather than with silicone-based. The silicone in the lube can react with the silicone of the dildo and cause a nasty chemical reaction that will melt your Drac and make the surface tacky. If you’re really keen on using the Drac with silicone-based lubricant, be sure to do a spot test before slathering it up. Also keep this silicone issue in mind when storing your Drac dildo as you don’t want it pressed up against other silicone toys thus causing the same kind of chemical reaction. It’s best to store it in its box, a toy bag, or even a ziploc baggie.

The Drac comes in a fairly large box with a plastic window so you can clearly see the dildo inside. It also has an image of the Drac on the side and the back of the box. It is in no way discreet, so while it might be ok for storage you may not want to leave it laying about. The dildo itself sits inside a plastic clamshell within the box that is pretty flimsy and not good for storage all on its own.

At 7.5″ long and 1.75″ in diameter, the Drac is not quite as large as it looks or feels in my hand. I think it seems bigger because of the color and the detailing. It is a lovely marbled red color with a fair amount of texture on the shaft and balls. The head has a pronounced coronal ridge and is somewhat life-like. Well, as life-like as a red cock with bat wings can be. The texture on the sides of the shaft is in the shape of bat wings and looks oh so cool. The balls and underside of the shaft are slightly bumpy as if it is made of real skin. Overall, it looks and feels great in my hand.

What’s more important is that the Drac dildo feels great inside me. The silicone has enough squish to it to make it comfortable but is also firm enough to clench down on in a lovely way. The shaft is quite straight and does not hit my g-spot, which is fine with me as I don’t need every toy to be a g-spot toy. The balls are good for gripping and make thrusting very easy. At just over one pound (17 ounces to be exact) the Drac is a bit hefty for a silicone dildo but I don’t really notice it during play. I also don’t notice the texture much when the dildo is inside me though it is very noticeable in my hand.

As I mentioned earlier, you can use the Drac both vaginally and anally and I have tried both. The length is such that if I lose focus and thrust too deeply in the heat of the moment, I can hit my cervix which I generally find unpleasant. Due to the balls at the base of the dildo, the Drac is also safe for anal play. It is quite comfortable to use anally as long as I go slowly at first to warm up, which is always important in anal play.

It is important to note that on their site Fleshlight states the Drac dildo is not intended for internal use. Their explanation is that the dildo is intended as a novelty, like almost all sex toys, and this warning is intended to protect their liability.

While how well this dildo performs is obviously one of the most important factors, I simply cannot stress enough how amazingly cool looking I find the Drac. The paint job and details are just incredible. The Drac really is a must have for collectors and people who would display a vampire cock on a shelf. The craftsmanship is truly impressive.

Fleshlight Freaks Drac Dildo Pros:
• Great squashy silicone
• Fun color
• Fabulous design

Fleshlight Freaks Drac Dildo Cons:
• No storage bag

The Fleshlight Freaks Drac is a fun and unusual dildo to have around. Before I had a chance to play with it, I loved the look of it and now that I have it in my possession, I am so enjoying it. It’s much more realistic than most of my dildos. That is, if you can call a red vampire cock realistic. I like the size, shape, and color, and just everything about the way it looks. The details are just great. The silicone is delightful both inside and outside of my body. Overall, it is just a lovely dildo and piques my interest in the other Fleshlight Freaks.

You can purchase your own Fleshlight Freaks Drac directly from Fleshlight who happens to be offering a 15% sitewide discount right now.

Like shiny new sex toys? I do! A few weeks ago I reviewed the new Metal Worx Magnetic Nipple Clamps and today I have the pleasure of reviewing another product from the new Metal Worx line, the Slim Fave Dildo from FunWares.

As I mentioned previously, Metal Worx is a new line of metal sex toys put out by Pipedream Products. The Slim Fave Dildo is part of this new line. It is made of high quality nickel-free stainless steel. Stainless steel is non-porous, latex and phthalate-free, hypoallergenic, and body-safe. This means you can easily clean and sterilize it to share between non-fluid bonded partners. To sterilize your Metal Worx Slim Fave Dildo, wash or spray it with a 10% bleach solution (nine parts water, one part bleach). To wash it you can simply use warm water and antibacterial soap or your favorite sex toy cleaner. You can also stick it in the dishwasher. As with glass sex toys, you can use any type of lubricant with stainless steel. So feel free to use those silicone-based lubes you can’t use with your silicone dildos. The stainless steel is so smooth and slick I need very little lube, if any, with the Metal Worx Slim Fave Dildo, but slick it up as much as you like.

The Metal Worx Slim Fave Dildo is 9.5″ long and measures 1.25″ in diameter at the larger end, 1.5″ in the middle, and .05″ at the smaller end. It weighs almost 1.75 pounds, which makes it my heaviest dildo by far. The weight feels good in my hand but can make my wrist tired if I’m thrusting too long. I guess I’m more out of shape than I realized!

The shape of the Slim Fave Dildo is interesting. The head of the larger end of the dildo has a rather flat surface that feels great sliding against my clit. Either end is good for gripping, though I prefer to grip the end with the graduated balls, or the middle. If you do use too much lube, the Metal Worx Slim Fave Dildo can get a tad slippery so remember, less is more in this case.

Stainless steel is great at retaining temperatures so the Metal Worx Slim Fave Dildo is excellent for sensation play. It always starts out cold, which for me is great as I am a fan of cold play. If you want it even colder you can cool down more by soaking it in a bowl of ice water. If you prefer warm to cold play, you can heat up your Slim Fave Dildo in a bowl of hot water. Either way, eventually the stainless steel will warm up or cool down to your body temperature, but in the meantime you can have fun creating different sensations with temperature.

The stainless steel is super shiny and quite pretty. It gets fingerprinty very easily but also shines up nicely with a soft cloth.

Just like the Magnetic Nipple Clamps, the Metal Worx Slim Fave Dildo comes in a very cool storage case. It is a black and silver hard case that latches closed. Inside, the Slim Fave Dildo lays in a bed of shaped hard foam. This box is perfect for storage which is obviously the point. It is a great way to keep your Metal Worx Slim Fave Dildo safe and sound. It’s also good way to keep it from banging against other more delicate sex toys in your toy chest.

Though it is tempting, I have not used the Metal Worx Slim Fave Dildo in my ass because even though the stainless steel is great for anal play, it has no flared base to make it anal safe. Then again, as the Slim Fave Dildo is quite long it is easy to keep a firm grip on it so it could be fine to use with a partner, but I wouldn’t recommend using it solo. If you are going to use it for anal play, please be careful and make sure you don’t just let go of it.

I really love cold play and I love how cold the Metal Worx Slim Fave Dildo gets. The sensation feels wonderful against my warm skin. The smoothness of the stainless steel shape slides over my clit and labia in delightful manner and slips inside me smoothly and easily.

While I like the graduated beads on the smaller end, I like them less than the larger side simply because the of the smaller diameter. I like my dildos more filling and find the graduated beads too small to give me that feeling. The Metal Worx Slim Fave Dildo is long enough that I can bruise my cervix if I get lost in the moment and thrust too intensely, but that also depends on where I hold it. I can essentially shorten the length and keep this from happening by holding it higher on the shaft.

Metal Worx Slim Fave Dildo Pros:
• Stainless steel
• Good for sensation play
• Great packaging
• Nice weight

Metal Worx Slim Fave Dildo Cons:
• Can get very heavy during play

If you like metal sex toys, the Metal Worx Slim Fave Dildo is a great option. The high quality stainless steel will last you quite a long time and provide all sorts of temperature-based fun. The storage box should last almost as long as the dildo if you treat it nicely. The heavy weight of the dildo is both a positive and a negative. I love it but it does wear on my wrist after a while. If you like the unusual shape of the dildo and the smooth texture of the stainless steel, you’re in for a treat with the Metal Worx Slim Fave Dildo.
