There are a lot of reasons to buy the O2 Niagra. It's platinum silicone, it's easy to sterilize, it's hypoallergenic, it's made in the USA, it will vibrate you, it is a multi-usage product, and it's from a company with a Green Policy - Tantus, a name synonymous with quality.

I bought the Niagara in Twilight, a purple and misty white variation of the product. I already own an O2 dildo, and adore it, so I wanted another one of these plush, skin like dildos in my arsenal.

O2 is the Tantus' version of Vixen's VixSkin. O2 is a dual density dildo with a firm inner core which they call the "muscle core" and an outer covering they call the "Pure Skin Layer". It does feel velvety to the touch, and it's firm, but extremely flexible. I can bent it in half, and it snaps right back to its original form.

Tantus packages it in a clear cube with the righting "the real deal" on it, refering to its skin-like texture. The product can be viewed from all angles. It's 7.65 inches tall and 1.45 inches in diameter. It cannot stand on its own thin base, it falls over. In the base, there is a hollow space for a silver bullet vibe, which is supplied with Niagara.(Always lube the bullet with water based lube so you can retrieve it. It runs on three watch batteries.)

The surface of the shaft does not have veins, the texture is supplied by a series of gentle waves. The head is the same thickness as the shaft, and it curves slightly for G spotting or P spotting. It is not an exaggerated curve, like everything on the Niagara, it is soft and gentle.

This is a harness compatible dildo, and it can be used vaginally, anally, or hand held for solo sex. In a harness, it's a bit bouncy, there is a slight floppiness factor there.

Niagara can be easily covered with a condom. It can be cleaned by boiling, it withstands temperatures up to 600 degrees Fahrenheit, it's top shelf dishwasher safe, and it can be treated to 10 percent bleach solutions as well as antibacterial soaps and toy cleaners.

Use only water based lube on Niagara unless its covered with a condom. Wrap your dildo to keep it clean and prevent it from melding with other silicone toys.

I did not like this much as a harness dildo, but as a solo dildo, and an anal dildo, it was fantastic. The texture feels human inside, holds body heat nicely, and allows the muscles to grip against the plush / firm dildo. I also love the color. It's hard to find cocks in Asian / Pacific Islander skin color shades, so most Island people are drawn to surrealistic colors.

One thing I did do was swap out my bullet, for a bullet with a pull cord. I also find that silver watch batteries work better than the alkaline (I found both types at Walmart's Watch dept). I don't let the bullet run over a half hour because it can burn out its little motor.

My partner really likes this long, slim, realistic feel dildo in her. It's a beautiful product. I would love to see the O2 line extended.
