Beginners Guide: G-Spot Dildos

gspot dildosIf you’ve been following my recent posts you shouldn’t be surprised to see this one in the mix.

Like vibrators, there are many dildos specifically designed to help you find your g-spot and apply the much needed pressure. And while there is nothing like the sweet hum of a vibrator, there’s definitely something to be said for the fullness, pressure and simplicity most targeted g-spot dildos provide.

For those of you wondering what the difference is;  dildos are (often phallic) shaped sex toys designed for vaginal or anal penetration, and unlike vibrators, dildos do not have motors or moving parts. Since they don’t have anything that would vibrate, pulsate, escalate, or bring any form of mechanical pleasure, most of the enjoyment comes from penetration (whether in the form of thrusting, applying pressure, or ‘rocking’ to stimulate the g-spot), or the sensation of fullness they provide.

They can be made from a wide range of materials including plain rubber (though I don’t support them for this reason), silicone, vinyl, ABS plastic, TPR (thermo plastic rubber), TPE (thermo plastic elastomer), metal, wood, and glass. Fortunately for those that like variety, they can be found in almost any shape and/or size imaginable.

One thing to note, the vast majority of g-spot dildos are safe for vaginal use, but a dildo that’s being put in your butt must have flared base, be free of sharp edges and seams, and be easily removed to be considered safe.

With that in mind, I thought it would be a good idea to list a few of my absolute favorite g-spot dildos in order to help you not only find your g-spot, but also encourage you to explore your body.

The Best G-Spot Dildos for Beginners

bent graduate, glass g-spot sex toyDouble G Glass Stunner ($24.99 – $59.99)

From that lovely curve to the rippled end, the wonderful feeling of warm or cool glass to the fantastic design, the moment I saw this glass g-spot dildo I just had to have it!

Measuring 8 1/2″ in total length and crafted out of extremely high quality Pyrex glass (it’s able to stand 1,500 lbs of pressure!), this is one product that if cared for properly, will likely last you a life time.

*for those of you scared by the size, don’t worry – only 4 1/2″ is meant for insertion.

Along with being wonderfully designed, built to last and relatively affordable for the quality, glass has another fantastic feature – it’s non porous, meaning it wont absorb bacteria, bodily fluids or lube. It will also never age, fade or discolor, can be totally sterilized and is completely hypoallergenic and hygienic.  Basically put, if you want quality, buy some fantastically designed glass products!

If that wasn’t enough, it has one of the most lovely levels of firmness to provide pressure on the g-spot, while also being exceptionally comfortable to hold. You can use it in a rocking motion to stimulate the area, gently thrust it ( be gentle, you don’t want to bruise your cervix) or simply hold it in place while you use something for clitoral stimulation. What ever you choose I’m pretty sure you won’t be disappointed.

Along with the various wonderful design features, it also has a rounded tip that allows it to slide inside very comfortably with the help of a tiny amount of your favorite lube.  If the curve doesn’t quite do it for you, you can also flip it around and use the ridges on the opposite side, all of which will rub on the g-spot offering some amazing sensations. Last but not least, you can use the curved end as a handle which again makes it very comfortable and easy to use.

On that note, because the glass g-spot dildo is made from glass it can be placed in warm or cold water to allow for some seriously amazing temperature play.

When it comes to cleaning you can wash it with soap and hot water, spray it down with you favorite toy cleaner. As for lube, you can use anything you want. Just keep in mind that it becomes extremely slippery when wet, so a little will go a very long way. (it’ll also save you money in the long run!)

Downfalls: None. Absolutely none.

Final Verdict: 5.5 out of 5 stars (it’s my rating system, I can do that when I want! ha!)

tantus charmerTantus Charmer ($44.99 – $59.99)

I’m rather proud to say that the Tantus Charmer was one of the very first dildos I received for g-spot stimulation, and even after all these years it’s never let me down.

Made of high quality silicone that allows for a little bit of give and flexibility,  the Charmer still manages to retain much of its firmness, offering great g-spot stimulation in the form of both pressure and continuous rubbing during thrusting.

On that note, it has 4 lovely ridges that when used in a thrusting motion, gently massage the g-spot. How fast or slow you use it is totally up to you, but it’s definitely one I would highly suggest.

In regard to cleaning you can bleach it in 10% bleach solution, boil it, put it in the dishwasher (I’m not kidding folks!), wash it with soap and water or spray it with toy cleaner. What ever you choose just keep in mind that Tantus products are made of some of the best silicone and like glass, won’t absorb bacteria, bodily fluids or lube.

As for lube, I’d only suggest a good water based one as a silicone would likely ruin it.

Final Verdict: 4.75 out of 5 stars

Lelo EllaLelo Ella ($39.99 – $59.99)

When the Lelo Ella first came out I was intrigued. For one thing it was shaped unlike the traditional dildos I was used to (read: it’s not a dick). For another, it was the one and only product everyone who owned it seemed to rave about. And I do mean everyone.

Finally submitting to the consensus I asked the generous folks at PinkCherry.ca to send one my way to include in this project. Fortunately for me they did, and in retrospect, I have no idea what took me so long. Very quickly Ella has filled one of the missing pieces in my drawer of ‘very necessary sex toys’.

Unlike many other products Ella‘s head has a way of hugging the g-spot very comfortably, giving  absolute control of the level of pressure you apply and because of the slightly rounded head, it glides in easily, almost instantly finding your g-spot without much struggle or searching. On top of that, Ella can be flipped around offering a lovely raised mount that applies pressure to the g-spot.

As for the stats: the product measures 7 1/2″ in total length, with 6 1/2″ of that being insertable. At its widest part you’re looking at 1 1/2 inches and regarding girth, 4″. Suffice to say it’s a comfortable size that even someone who’s not very sexually experienced could use without much pain or worry.

Like the other two products Ella  is hypoallergenic, hygienic, body safe and non porous so it doesn’t absorb bodily fluids lube or bacteria, making clean up a breeze. When it comes to cleaning  you can wash it with soap and water, gently boil it, use a 10% bleach solution, wash it with soap and water or spray it with your favorite toy cleaner.

Again I’d only suggest a good water based lube as a silicone lube would likely ruin it.

Final Verdict: 5 out of 5 stars

I sincerely hope that through this series of posts you’ll not only find something that works for your body, but helps makes the process easier and more comfortable.

I’ve tried to cover as many of the basics as possible, while focusing on affordability, ease of use, body safety and longevity. Hopefully each of these posts has (or will) help in some way, and as I’ve said before, your safety and well being are my #1 concern.

Review: The Lelo Ina

For those of you not in the loop Lelo makes a line of products that could definitely be classified as “luxury” toys. They’re made of FDA approved materials (silicone and hard ABS plastic), making them phthalate and latex free, seamless (allows for a painless insertion), rechargeable, professionally packaged, easy to care for, very powerful and come with a 1 year warranty, along with a 10 year quality guarantee! Seriously, if there was a line that was worthy of the price tag – Lelo would be one of them.

The Good

As for the Ina, there were many features that impressed me;

It’s very professional packaged. The box is both colorful and pretty with nothing on it that screams “SEX TOY!” – no nudity, profanity, it’s not cheaply packaged, nor is there anything that would otherwise make you recoil at the sight of it. The box itself is “designer” in appearance and could easily be mistaken for an unknown high-tech gadget found in a department store.

At just under 8 inches in total length, of which only 3 ½ are insertable, Ina is a very small dual vibrator. I’ll be honest, I was quite surprised as I had only seen it in photo’s and thought it would be MUCH bigger (which isn’t always a good thing, something many can testify to).

Although it is a “firm” product it’s also very soft (velvety almost), seamless, lightweight and fits very comfortably in a hand, not to mention the body.

Ina has 2 separate motors (one located in each “pleasure point”). As a dual vibrator this is definitely a fantastic feature as it allows both your g-spot and clitoris to have direct and powerful stimulation.

Finally, the fact that it is rechargeable, giving you 4 hours of play for a 2 hour charge time is pretty amazing. Not only does this save you money on batteries and the environment (again with the batteries), but it also means that you can take as long as you need to reach an orgasm without having to worry about it dying before you get “there”.

*On a side note; I charged my Ina for 2 hours as directed and then left it running on the pillow while I went about my day. I was quite curious to see if the product really lasted the 4 hours it says. To my surprise, just over 4.5 hours later it was still going. The red light was showing indicating that the battery was low, but it was still going a half hour after I thought it would. Suffice to say, the Ina will most likely be going long after you’re done.

Operating Instructions

In regard to working the product it’s very, very easy; located on the glossy handle are four buttons: + (plus) – (minus) Δ (upward triangle) and ▼(downward triangle)
*push the + (plus) symbol to turn it on
*hold the + (plus) symbol to increase the speed of the vibration
*press the Δ (upward triangle) to run upwards through the 8 settings. Each time you press the button you will go to the next setting.
*press the ▼(downward triangle) to run downwards through the 8 settings. Each time you press the button you will go to the next setting. **One of the great things with this is that you don’t have to run through all of the settings if you accidentally hit the Δ and go past the setting you like; just click the ▼button and you can go back to it.
*press the – (minus) button to lower the power of the vibration
*hold the – (minus) button to turn it off.

While that may sound like a lot, in truth it’s probably one of the easiest toys I’ve ever used.

As an added bonus, for those of you that like to take your toys with you when you travel the Ina comes with a “locking” feature that keeps it from accidentally turning on. Just hold all four buttons at once (the – + ▼ Δ) and the LED light will turn on, then off, letting you know it’s locked. To unlock the Ina just hold down all four buttons again and you’re good to go.

As for the 8 settings they include; a steady low flutter, clitoral stimulator only, g-spot stimulator only, both g-spot and clitoral stimulator, a pulsation, cycling (almost as if it goes circular from g-spot to clitoral and around again) a intermittent vibe between g-spot and clit, and a roller coaster between g-spot and clitoral stimulation. Add to that the increase or decrease in vibrational speed and you’ve more then 8 settings. Just another reason for me to be impressed with this toy!

Cleaning & Care

When it comes to lubes I would highly suggest a water based lube ONLY. Since it’s a silicone product you don’t want to use a silicone lube as it could bond with the material and cause it to break down over time…basically, you ruin your Ina.

On that note, since it’s a silicone toy it’s non porous and not going to absorb any bacteria making cleaning easy; just wash it with warm water and anti bacterial soap, rinse it well and pat with a lint free cloth to dry. For safe keeping I suggest you either place it back in the pretty box or bag it comes with for storage.

Once you’ve finished with the Ina and want to charge it for next time, or if you notice that the LED light is glowing red (meaning it’s low on juice) just remove the silicone stopper located on the bottom, insert the DC plug into the DC socket and plug it in the wall. While it’s charging the LED will flash to let you know it’s charging. When it stops flashing and just glows it’s done.

The Bad

In regard to negatives the only one I could find was that the clitoral stimulator, while flexible, wasn’t very long and for some women they may find that it comes up short when tying to reach their clitoris. But again, that’s not everyone so for some of you that might not be an issue. Other then that it’s not waterproof. But like most luxury products the benefits FAR outweigh the negatives.

Final Verdict

All in all, I think the Lelo Ina is a vibrator that anyone who’s looking for a truly decadent designer dual vibe NEEDS to have! Not only is it lightweight, made of FDA approved materials making it body safe, seamless, comfortable, soft in feel, odourless, easy to use, rechargeable and very powerful (while being damn near silent!) but it also comes with a one year warranty! I’ll ask again…what more could you want?
