Fun Factory Big Boss G4. Even the name sounds kind of badass. The Big Boss is one in the G4 line of vibrators with Fun Factory Click-n-Charge technology and is sold by Good Vibes. It is big, and it get the job done… Like a Boss.
At over 9″ long and 1 3/4″ in diameter, the Big Boss is a filler-upper. In fact, the first time I tried using it, the toy got stuck! I shit you not, somehow it was vacuum suctioned into my vagina and it was not coming out. Just as I was about to frantically tweet for help, I manage to extract it. Big Boss is made from Fun Factory’s matte silicone (care info), which is not my favorite. It attracts lint like crazy, never seems to feel clean when you’re washing it, and it eats lube like that’s it’s mother-fucking job. Can we say drag? I actually got so frustrated with it one evening that I put a condom over it and slathered it in silicone lube, tweeting something to the effect of “I win”. Honestly, this is probably the only thing I don’t like about this toy, and it isn’t reason enough to deter you, there are ways around draggy silicone. However, I would LOVE it if Fun Factory would make their silicone a little smoother and a little less lube-guzzling.
Big Boss is re-chargeable, and because it uses magnetic charging (seriously, why can my vibrator do this but I still have to plug in my phone?) it is fully waterproof! I have successfully used it in the shower and left it running in a sink full of water, not a single issue. Brilliant. Also brilliant, the buttons glow when you touch them, it’s like magic and I love it. No, I don’t mean when you press them, when you pick up the toy and touch the handle, the buttons get all glowy and pulsate. Perfect for using it in the dark without fumbling. There are three buttons, + – *, the last one being the “booster” button that activates the patterns. The packaging is pretty neat, there are windows on the front and back that are covered by flaps and secured with magnets. The back features a picture of the Calla in space, which I can’t quite figure out. You’ll also receive the charger in a separate box. It comes with a sample of Toy Fluid and an instructional booklet that has approximately 500 billion languages and contains the phrase “Do not throw power unit or toy in the fire”, it also warns against poking the toy with pointy objects. Noted.
All that aside, how does it work? Fucking fantastically. The vibrations are intense and quiet, I was shocked at how much power it provides. The “loop of love” handle does make it easier to control during use, especially since you’re bound to need lube. I’ve never been a fan of internal vibrations, but this is honestly the toy that has changed my mind. Thrusting with it doesn’t do much for me, while it is filling, it doesn’t really hit my g-spot all that well (plus the drag can make thrusting difficult). But what I adore is just letting the Big Boss occupy my vagina. I love turning up the vibrations and angling the handle forward (toward my belly button), maybe rocking it back and forth a bit. This. Oh, when I use it like that, there is no other vibrator that gives me the sensation this one does. I feel like I’m using three toys at once! I can feel both fullness and vibrations vaginally, but it also stimulates my clit! Seriously. Plus, when I angle it the right way it even feels like I have a vibrating plug in my butt. The orgasms I have from using the toy like this are amazing, they feel all encompassing even though I don’t have g-spot orgasms with it. I sometimes even squirt a little, more like a dribble than a fire hose, but the vibrations run deep enough to make that happen. It feels wonderful.
I honestly thought it was a fluke the first time. How could one vibrator, with such a plain shape, make me feel like I was using three toys at once? But I’ve replicated it again and again. Not only that, but others have reported similar experiences. I cannot wait to use the Big Boss vaginally while having the pet penetrate me anally, he gets giggly when there are vibrations involved.
This is a great toy. It offers girth, and rumbly vibrations through the entire shaft. The buttons are easy to use and it has some nice touches, like the lighting and loop handle. Would I recommend the Big Boss? Absolutely.
If you would like to get your own Big Boss then head on over to Good Vibes!
I recently reviewed the Tantus Adam O2, and now I’d like to introduce you to it’s big brother the Tantus Luke O2. Luke is another fabulous dual-density silicone (care info) dildo from my favorite manufacturer, so I was bound to love it. At 6″ long and 2″ in diameter, this is a size-queen’s dream. The outer layer has more squish and give than the Adam, it’s more of what I expected from dual-density. I frequently leave Luke sitting on my desk so I can fondle it. The balls and head have no firm core, so they are particularly satisfying to play with. They also make Luke harness compatible and anal safe.
Luke is by far the girthiest in my current collection, and I was slightly hesitant when I first decided to request it for review. I am so glad that I did. The outer layer softens the size and the stiff, inner “muscle core” keeps the toy easy to control. With relatively little warm up, or none if I’m really randy, and a little lube, I’m ready to go. Luke is filling and wonderful, and if I could marry a dildo this might be it (don’t tell the Pure Wand).
How do I love thee? Let me count the ways…
Luke is smooth, and soft and nice. It is easy to glide in and out, and because it isn’t too long, I can take it “balls deep” without any trouble. I’m a little in love with the balls, by the way. I didn’t think much of them at first, but they’ve grown on me and now I can’t imagine Luke without them. Laying on my back and thrusting like a fiend, I can feel the balls against my ass, and I kind of like it. I can also turn it the other way around and easily hold the balls while using my fingertips to “bounce” the shaft in and out slightly. This offers excellent stimulation with minimal effort, though it blocks my clit unless I use a bullet vibe.
My other, and possibly favorite, move with Luke is to sit on it. Oh. My. Lawd. It is SO GOOD. Just writing this makes me wonder why I’m not sitting here with Luke inside me. The answer is because I wouldn’t be getting any work done, but I’d definitely be having more fun. I like to turn my desk chair around and sit Luke in the middle, then straddle and lower myself onto the dildo. Add in a clit vibe and I’m going to hump the chair until I gush and squirt and cum so hard I can’t stand up again. Then, when I do, I get to experience that beautiful weak-in-the-knees, cum-running-down-my-legs feeling that makes me want to curl up and bask in the afterglow.
The Luke is, dare I say, almost perfect. I can’t really think of a single thing I dislike about it. I am afraid it may have turned me into a size queen. Even though it doesn’t have any g-spot curve, when I clench around it’s beautiful thickness, I can’t help but squirt. It’s definitely different than the soft, yet direct stimulation the Adam gives me. But it satisfies my g-spot in it’s own unique way.
The Luke is everything I wanted in a dual-density dildo and then some. I promise you that if you get to squish and feel this toy with your hand, that you’ll want to squish and feel it with your other parts as well. Luke took me from hesitation about size, to avid fan. I love this toy and I hope that you will too.
If you’re keen to get yourself some dual-density glory, the Luke O2 and all the other Tantus O2 products are available at Tantus!

I figured since every Fun Factory toy comes with a sample packet of their Toy Fluid lube, I would do a quick write-up about it for future reference.
Fun Factory Toy Fluid is a water-based lubricant, making it safe for use with all toys, as well as condoms. While it does appear to be free of parabens (which may cause cancer), it does include glycerin (which can cause yeast infections in sensitive individuals).
It claims to be odorless, but there is a slight smell, almost like chemically red wine. However, I only notice it when I stick it right under my nose, I do not notice is during use. The taste is not great, but it isn’t the worst either. I definitely wouldn’t use this lube if you were planning later oral, but if you accidentally taste it you shouldn’t feel the need to immediately go rinse out your mouth either.
The lube is fairly viscous, without being jelly-like in any way. It isn’t quite as runny as some (Wet Original) but not as thick as others (Wet Gelle). It offers some cushion, though I’d go for something thicker for anal. For vaginal use it is pretty good, even better for people who have some natural moisture, because it tends to dry out quickly. Fortunately, even as it dries it doesn’t get gummy or sticky.
While I don’t think there is anything wrong with Toy Fluid, I do think there are better options out there, like Sliquid. The reality is that Fun Factory’s own silicone, like on the Big Boss, has so much drag that the Toy Fluid can’t stand up to it. I’d suggest keeping the sample handy for travel, but for regular use I would recommend investing in something a little nicer.
When I first saw the Digital Delight (also know as the Wet for Her Toy Two) I’ll admit, I was a bit put off. I didn’t understand it, didn’t want it, and kind of ignored it’s existance. Later, when I was contacted about reviewing a different toy for them, and I read their mission, I was more intrigued. So when GoodVibes put the Digital Delight up for review I decided to go ahead and give it a try.
Wet for Her is a French company who has made it their mission to fulfill the need for non-phallic toys for lesbians. Moreover, they produce high quality, silicone toys (care info). The Digital Delight is shaped like two over-sized fingers and is hollow to allow the user to slip their own fingers inside it. Basically, it gives you crazy, silicone hulk fingers. Only, they don’t come in green, your options are purple and black.
Now, I’m not actually a fan of fingers for internal stimulation, they just don’t fill me up like I would like them to. But this toy has more girth than even the beefiest of fingers I’ve encountered, so I figured it was a go. The angle of the fingers is desgned for g-spot stimulation, and in theory it should be great. Unfortunately, in reality, I found that it didn’t hit mine at all. In fact, it was very uncomfortable. During some sexy time with my partner I decided to break it out for the first time. I was very horny, well lubed (naturally and artificially) and was totally ready to go. Popped the DD on, and went to work. No dice, it didn’t feel good… in fact, it almost hurt. While the toy certainly wasn’t too wide, the pressure it naturally placed on the top side of my vaginal canal was unpleasant. I kept trying but it just didn’t improve. I decided to try having him it on me, thinking maybe he could hold it at an angle that I couldn’t and that maybe it would be better somehow. It wasn’t. I gave up, thinking maybe it was just me and perhaps I was overly sensitive that night. I immediately popped in the Tantus Acute and felt fabulous g-spot pressure right away, no pain and nothing uncomfortable. Hmph. Round One: Fail.
Later on, I tried it again on my own, using different angles and methods of holding it, nothing worked. Turning it upside down just didn’t give me much stimulation at all. Again and again I tried, again and again the Digital Delight failed me. Honestly, I’m kind of sad. I love that Wet for Her is trying to provide toy options for people who prefer something non-phallic and body safe. I love that the silicone is somewhat silky and doesn’t drag, it even has some resistance to pet hair and lint. The packaging is a little over-sized, but not offensive in any way, which is what I would expect from a company that is catering to a niche market like they are. The toy fits very comfortably over my fingers, but was a little snug on the pet’s. I think the angle of the toy might be ok for prostate stimulation, but I’d exercise caution, as there is no flared base to keep it outside the body. It is difficult to grip from the outside when your fingers are all lubey, but it isn’t a problem if you use it as intended.
Overall, I like the company, I like the quality. I really just wish the Digital Delight worked for me, unfortunately, it didn’t.
If you would like to give the Digital Delight a go, you can find it, and other fabulous toys, at Good Vibes!

This is really more of a PSA than a review. I want to warn anyone who looks even twice at the Bswish Bgee Deluxe to run. Run away, as fast as you can. It doesn’t matter that it is made of body safe silicone, or that it’s waterproof. Forget the unique shape… ignore the fact that it comes in gorgeous (and under-utilized) colors like TEAL.
What you need to know is this: This toy sucks. The vibrations rival that of the Picobong Mahana, in fact, I think the Picobong may be a bit stronger! On top of that, the vibrations aren’t centralized in any perceptible area of the toy… Oh, and the battery compartment may make you want to kill yourself. Or the toy, probably the toy.
So, dear friend, if you’ve stumbled across my humble blog because you were scouting Google for information on this toy, fantastic, you’re who I’m writing this for. Unless you like vibrational intensity equivalent to a summer breeze across your nether regions, walk away and never look back. Perhaps look into Lelo’s Mia, Siri or Nea. Or, invest in a decent bullet vibe. I’ve even heard better things about some of the other Bswish products, like the Bcurious, though I haven’t tried it myself (strike that, it’s also disappointing).
Whatever you, don’t buy this toy, it will be a complete waste of your time and money, no matter how awesome the color.
I wonder what dildos contemplate when they stare out the window
The Tantus Adam O2 was my first realistic dual-density toy, and oh boy, what a world it has opened up for me. I received Adam at the same time as the Tantus Cush O2, I’d heard such great things about dual-density and couldn’t wait to squeeze them. One I actually did, I was surprised. They were both more firm than I’d expected, and I’d be lying if I didn’t say that, at first, I was a tad disappointed. They didn’t seem all that realistic feeling, as I’d heard people claim repeatedly. While there is definitely some squish, and some give, it wasn’t as much as I’d been lead to expect. Actually, the first time I tried to use Adam my vagina wanted no part of it. It felt very stiff, too large, and too curved (this coming from someone who loves her Pure Wand). Fortunately, I’m not a quiter.
Subsequent romps with the wonder that is the O2 Adam have proven that all my initial feelings about it were wrong. It has just the right amount of stiffness, cushioned by that lovely, squishy, outer layer. It isn’t too large at all! Proper warm-up and lube means that Adam slides right in and fills me up in a glorious way. Too curved? Ha! What was I thinking? That curve allowed for delicious trysts with my g-spot. Now, every time I bring the Adam out I can be guaranteed a couple of things: squirting and major orgasms.
A little more detail about the toy itself. The Tantus Adam O2 is dual-density, meaning it has a hard “muscle core” and a “Super Soft” outside. Both parts are made of Tantus’ premium silicone (care info). The shaft has some squish and give, more on the backside of the curve than the front, and the head is completely soft. The Adam is 1.5″ in diameter and 7″ long, it has a harness compatible, and anal safe, flared base. Unlike the Super Soft Adam, it stands up nicely when you set it up on the base, this is thanks to the hard core. The inner silicone is the most firm I’ve ever encountered, but since the part you use is coated in the softer silicone, it is nicely cushioned. The shaft has a smooth, matte finish and the head is shiny. It is a lint magnet, but with a little lube (water-based only, especially on dual-density silicone) you’ll find no drag, unlike some other toys. The design is semi-realistic, with soft vein lines and a slight frenulum and urethral opening.
How does it feel? If you couldn’t tell from what I said already, I’ll make it clear… It’s fabulous. Adam in one toy that just works for me, it gets everything right. The only thing I can pick on is the base, while it is solid, it’s small. In some ways this is nice, but I sometimes like a little more to grip when I’m thrusting. Oh, thrusting, that’s where Adam shines for me. While it is girthy enough to fill me up, and I can clench it if I want, I prefer to thrust myself into a squirting frenzy. I don’t really notice any texture, but it glides with just the right amount of friction to really feel it. The soft head feels glorious on my g-spot.
Bottom line, the Tantus Adam O2 is a fantastic dildo. It’s great in a harness, it’s great when I use it on myself. Dual-density is fabulous, and this won’t be the last time you’ll hear that from me. I feel like the Adam is the Goldilocks dildo for me… it isn’t too big, it isn’t too small, it’s just right. The ultra-premium silicone is easy to care for, and will last a lifetime if you do. I’m thrilled to be able to recommend the Adam O2 to anyone, it is a great toy and a welcome addition to my collection.
If you want to add the Adam O2 to your collection, or better yet, to start one, you can find it at Tantus!
