This is one hefty dildo; it means business and it is obvious from the moment you have in your hands. It is bold, black and heavy. It really is amazing the wide range of silicone that is available on the market. Some is soft and squishy, some is firm and stiff. This dildo, the Wilde by Fuze is solid, stiff and heavy.

Obviously designed for insertion, the Wilde could be used vaginally or anally, providing the size is something you can handle. The base makes it safe to use anally. It could be held or used in a harness, and could be used by men and women alike. The shape of the Wilde is fairly realistic, with the obvious difference of a total lack of texture and veining. There are a few ridges at the base of the head, but the shaft itself is completely smooth. There is a slight upward curve to the dildo, which allows for some G-spot or P-spot play. There is a seam which runs the length of the toy that can be seen and felt with your finger, but it isn't felt in use.

The Wilde is made of high quality silicone, with a shiny surface. That shiny surface picks up lint and dust like crazy, so please be sure to thoroughly clean it before each use. There is a bit of drag when you attempt to slide your finger across the surface, but that disappears with a small amount of lubrication. Silicone is a great material for dildos, and it is very body safe. You can wash the Wilde with soap and water or your favorite toy cleaner. If you wish to sterilize the Wilde, you can boil it for three minutes or run it through a cycle in your dishwasher. You cannot bend the Wilde, and there is very little flop to it when you hold the base in the palm of your hand. It weighs in at a hefty 10 ounces, but it wasn't too heavy to manage in my hand or in a harness. At 9" in total length, and right around 6 1/2" in insertable length, the Wilde isn't a short guy. The diameter of the shaft is right around 1 1/2" in diameter, so please know what diameter you can handle before taking this one on.

The base of the Wilde is different than any other dildo I've seen. It has an angled vaguely oval shape, with a series of ridges. Those ridges are there to give the person wearing the dildo in a harness some external stimulation. This seems aimed at women, as it looks to be shaped for being tucked between labia to provide clitoral stimulation. Beneath the angled oval shape, there is a hole for a bullet, so you can make the Wilde a vibrating dildo by adding a bullet of your choosing. It does not come with a bullet, so you will need to provide your own, but bullets are cheap and I don't mind them not including one. Any normal 5/8" bullet will fit. You might be able to cram a bullet that is slightly larger in there, but there isn't much stretch, so it will be a tight fit.

The Wilde comes packaged in a simply clear plastic container. There is text explaining what is inside, but there isn't anything trashy or cheap looking about the design. That being said, I wouldn't call it classy or elegant, either. Also, I don't think I would recommend the package for long term storage, as it is already coming apart at the seams, as those stiff plastic packages tend to do. Because Wilde is all silicone, you will want to store it somewhere where it doesn't contact other silicone toys to avoid damage to the toys. Also, please stick to water based lubes, as silicone lubes will react with the toy and cause damage.

The Wilde is a breath of fresh air in the dildo harness world, really. It is nice to have a change of pace from the usual flat base, with suction cup or no suction cup being the only variation. The ridged area at the base of the Wilde adds a whole different dimension. When it is in a harness, you can bring on that ridged oval to your hearts content, with or without a bullet in the dildo.

That being said, you have to know what you like and what works for you. This is, without a doubt, an unforgiving large dildo. It is solid, with no squish or flex present in some of the higher end choices. It doesn't mimic a real life penis in squish, texture or feel. It is a firm hunk of silicone that can do lots for you, if that is the kind of thing that you or your partner like.

So, in the end, know yourself and know if this is something you'll love. I like it for a feeling of fullness during other play, but don't enjoy such a rigid toy for thrusting. In a harness, I was surprised by how much I liked having that ridged pad there. Something I never knew I was missing from the experience, was brought to the game by the Wilde.

This still gets to come out and play every once in a while. It is my all time favorite? No. But it's a high quality toy that certainly delivers.
