Siren

For today's review, I'll be looking at the Siren by Pleasure Works. As always, click any image to see a larger version!

 With RodeoH Brief:

The Siren is a fairly typical silicone dildo, and it comes in purple and black. It has a pronounced head for p-spot or g-spot stimulation, and is o-ring harness compatible. The wide base may make it harder for people with smaller hands to grip this toy. The silicone is fairly tacky feeling¹ and attracts quite a bit of lint.

As this dildo is on the thin side, an inch and a half width, it works well as a beginning p-spotting or g-spotting dildo. It only applies a little pressure to these spots though, so if you're looking for a more intense feeling, God's Immaculate Rod or the D1 would work better. Although it has some flexibility, it's not squishy, making it excellent for anal play. With its simple design, the Siren thrusts rather well. Most will want to use a water-based lube, as this dildo has quite a bit of drag without it, and may be painful. Though I found this toy fun to use with other partners, it was a shade too dull for my own solo use. If it had a squishier material or pressed against my g-spot more firmly, I would have preferred it far more.

This dildo is easily cleaned via boiling, or hand washing with warm water and soap. The Siren comes in a simple cardboard box and plastic bag, neither of which are adequate for storage purposes.

¹ Tacky as it is, it did pass a flame test indicating that it is pure silicone.

Halo

For today's review, I'll be looking at the Halo by Happy Valley Silicone, in the Fuze line. Click any image to see the larger version!

 Size Comparison:

This squishy silicone matte plug by Fuze is the second Happy Valley Silicone plug I've reviewed, and once again, I wanted to like it far more than I did. The Halo is made of a high grade silicone¹ which is rather flexible and comfortable, making it comfortable to wear for extended periods of time. The small ridges all over the plug hold lube well. Dimension-wise the Halo is 1 3/8'' by 4'', so it is on the longer side. This ensures that the plug stays in place, and I have yet to have it pop out during orgasm.

The base of this plug is a ring and either a finger or bullet vibe can be used as a flange. Be sure to place something in the ring so that an emergency room visit isn't necessary. Most bullet vibes should fit, I found Jimmyjane's Little Chroma to just fit while stretching the ring a bit. All of the Fuze plugs have this design, with a ring for a flange. This is particularly brilliant as it allows for boiling the toy on its own, and for effective vibrations to be easily added.

Though the bendy aspects of the silicone make it comfortable to wear (especially for long periods of time), they do not make it easy to insert. I often found when inserting that the long stem would bend and make insertion difficult. The pleasure plugs with a rounded tip were far easier to insert, and I would recommend starting there if you're new to butt plugs.

If you're interested in a plug that's similar to the Halo, but want something slightly easier to manage, Fuze also offers the Hero and Whirl. Hero is like the Halo but smooth, and Whirl is a smaller version of the Halo.

¹ Passed a flame test.

Tango

For today's review, I'll be looking at the Tango by Happy Valley Silicone in the Fuze line. As always, click any image to see the larger version!

 Front:

 Slot for bullet vibe:

 Giver portion:

The first thing that caught my eye with this double ended dildo was its ridges that provide clitoral or perineum stimulation. In theory, this is a strapless strap-on that doesn't require anything further for use. The Tango is made of a firm pure silicone and has a small reservoir for a bullet vibrator. Using a bullet vibrator will provide some external stimulation for the giver, and a small amount of internal stimulation for both the giver and receiver. The Tango also comes in a lovely light blue.

The Tango has a smooth finish which makes it slightly more difficult to grip as the giver. For myself, the giving portion would slip out a half inch or so during partner or solo use. The receiving end benefits from the smooth finish though, and is easily inserted for vaginal or anal use. It's also on the slimmer side, making it more accessible to more users. For the giver portion, too much lube will make it difficult to maneuver Tango without it slipping out. When using a bullet vibrator, I found a drop of lube aided insertion and removal of the vibrator without making it too slippery to stay in the reservoir. Make sure to use a water-based lube, as a silicone one will destroy this toy. Jimmyjane's Little Chroma just fit, and due to its length, also provided extra external stimulation.

For myself, the Tango wasn't that great for solo play. Though the ridges made for clitoral stimulation, the internal portion was a little too small and didn't touch my g-spot. Though for other people with closer spots, the curve may be enough for g-spot or p-spot stimulation. The giving portion of the Tango is meant for people who like smaller and slimmer stubs. For partner play, the Tango unfortunately does not stay put. Either a harness that allows for a double ended dildo, or a spare hand is necessary for thrusting with Tango.

The Tango attracts a ton of lint, and needs to be cleaned before and after every use. This can be done, after removing the bullet, via boiling, a dishwasher, a 10% bleach solution, or warm water and soap. The Tango is made of high quality materials, and may work well for other users, the exact shape simply did not work well for myself.
