 Boy Is This Big! |
| Review Date: September 5, 2008 |
| Reviewer: Voiceguy, Los Angeles, CA |
I am posting this review mostly as a public service, to let prospective customers know just how enormous this product it.
The maximum diameter (largest bulb) is 2.35 inches, with a total length of 5.65 inches.
It's too big for me. I have barely managed to accommodate the Severin Medium Anal Plug, which is 1.85 inches at its largest point. No one should even consider this large sized plug unless they can comfortably and reliably accommodate the medium one.
The larger Tantus plugs are pricey, but they are of high quality. The "platinum" silicone material is mirror-smooth and easy to clean, which is a plus. Lubrication must always be used, and patience is needed -- especially with something this big. Insertion must never be forced -- it should never be painful. Something this big would definitely take some serious working-up-to. |

This anal plug, like other Tantus products, is well-made of high-grade "platinum" silicone. This provides a resilient toy with a mirror-smooth finish that is easy to clean -- a definite plus for device of this kind. Lubrication must always be used.
The Severin Medium stands 4-1/2" high (4-1/4" insertable). The larger bulb is about 1-7/8" in diameter at its widest point. That is a serious diameter to cope with, and definitely not for beginners. In my own case, while I have no problem with the competing Doc Johnson Anal Plug, Black, Medium, which measures 1-5/8" at its widest point, I have not quite managed to get this one to go in. I believe that I will succeed one day, but in the meantime I can tell you that the seemingly small 1/4" difference between 1-5/8" and 1-7/8" doesn't seem small when you're struggling with it!
Accordingly, this unit is definitely one to work up to. It is absolutely not for beginners, and will provide a challenge even for more experienced users. Unless you already can comfortably accept units such as the 1-5/8" Doc Johnson medium plug mentioned above, or Tantus's smaller companion unit, the 1-1/2" Tantus Severin Small Anal Plug, Black, it would probably be a waste of money to order this plug.
Because I have not yet succeeded in full insertion with this unit, I cannot confirm whether or not it will stay in securely once inserted. The small version of this plug does not stay in reliably, as I noted in the review for that unit. This one looks like it might be more reliable, because there is a more significant difference between the diameter of the large bulb and the diameter of the shank leading to the base. This threshold tends to make the unit move inward when the muscle is clenched, rather than being expelled. Also, the length of this shank is 1-1/4", which would also tend to enhance retention of it.
One nice feature of the unit I received is that the base is relatively thin, and therefore comfortable to wear. The Severin Small has such a beefy base that it tends to poke into your cheeks. This one will curl out of the way, and should be quite comfortable. I can't tell whether this base thickness varies from unit to unit as they are molded, or whether it's inherent in the design of the two plugs, so your experience may vary. It would be nice if Tantus reduced the thickness of all their bases to be similar to this one.
In summary, this plug is for advanced players only. The Tantus quality makes it an excellent choice as far as material and ease of care, but it will sit unused in a drawer unless unless you have the patience to work up to it. It is not for freshmen or even sophomores.
UPDATE: Since writing the original review, I have succeeded in accommodating this plug. I can confirm, therefore, that it stays in place reliably once inserted. In addition, use gets a little easier each time. |

I love this toy!
I love the silicone material.
I love the size.
I have my man in the front and this in the back and I always end up on cloud 9!
I also use it on him and he loves it also.
The big O is always intensified for both of us when this is included. |
