Review: Tantus Feeldoe Original

Reviewing the Tantus Feeldoe Original from Pinkcherry.com sex toys! Originally I was supposed to use it on the Actor when he came to visit me but we... didn't manage, for one reason or another. Hence this review isn't as complete as it could be, but I'll post a follow up review when I'm able to.

* A couple things I forgot to mention: it's designed by women, for women, specifically to fit the contours of the female body, which is full of win; but men can (supposedly?) use it by inserting the bulb anally for some hot double-penetration action, or if you... can't get it up, I guess? The bulb also doubles up as a nice handle.

This was my first video review so I sound really monotonous! But I do like the Feeldoe a lot, the head and the slight curve feel great

Addendum [06/21/09] :

So I'm visiting the Actor right now and it's making for a lot of fun, wonderfulness and sexytimes. We finally got to using the Feeldoe together! Obviously using the Feeldoe with someone else was much different from using it alone. I'll talk about the Actor's experience with it first and then move on to my own perspective.

The Actor regularly has anal sex and is pretty experienced. He found the size of the shaft to be fine, but he didn't like how it was angled slightly upwards. The vibrations were pleasant, but not really a big deal. The biggest problem with the Feeldoe's shaft was its head - or lack thereof. I never really noticed before the Actor pointed it out, but the head of the Feeldoe is quite small/narrow compared to the head of a penis. When I used the Feeldoe vaginally on myself, that was actually a bit of a plus. With other dildos I've used, the feeling of the bulbous head popping in has always been intense - sometimes in an awesome, pleasurable way, but at other times uncomfortably so. It's definitely a plus to have a dildo in my arsenal that has less of a head, since sometimes I'm in the mood for a dildo that smoothly slides into me. While I was fucking the Actor with it, however, the lack of a head was irritating because the dildo kept sliding out of him. Since I obviously couldn't feel how far I was pulling out while thrusting, feeling the "catch" of a head when I was about to pull out would have been really useful.

For me, the Feeldoe was both an improvement on your typical strapon harness + dildo, as well as a regression. The "straplessness" of the Feeldoe generally worked quite well: the bulb didn't fall out during sex, and the strapon didn't get jostled out of place at all. However, using the Feeldoe made thrusting a lot more difficult, and I found that using a harness gave me a lot more control. Using a harness also meant that the ridges were pressed up against my clit at least 80% of the time, when without a harness the ridges were hardly pressed close to my body at all. Having the ridges against my clit was a huge plus because I could feel the vibrations. Vibrations against my clit while thrusting into someone is a pretty addicting feeling, let me tell you. The bulb, on the other hand, I pretty much forgot was there; it didn't really add or take away from the experience.

So, overall, I'd say the Feeldoe isn't mindblowing, but as a strapless-strapon it works pretty well and I'm glad that I own it purely because of the dual-stimulation function. It doesn't feel like "my" cock when I wear it though, so generally I'll prbably eschew the Feeldoe for more traditional strapons and get off in other ways

4/5 stars.
