The Niagara is, to be blunt, an amazing toy for about a hundred reasons. First, it's made of pure, sterilizable silicone that is wonderfully soft and squishy to the touch. The outer layer is at least, with a firm inner shaft that isn't painfully stiff and keeps the dildo easy to insert. The O2 layer is much softer than any other silicone toy I've used, but it is still firmer than silicone toys from Vixen Creations, and is definitely firmer than a real cock.

Be that as it may, you can still bend this thing in half, bounce, boing, jiggle, and flail it all over the place and it will snap right back to the original shape. Without lube (water based only! Silicone lube will interact badly with this toy), the top squishy layer has a bit of drag like real skin. (Did I mention how fun the squishiness is? Makes me wanna fondle this thing forever.)

The gentle ridges are also very nice, and this is coming from a person who usually doesn't like ridges or nubs. They're pronounced without being IN YOUR FACE type bumps. There is definitely added stimulation from these waves for me, both gliding along the upper wall of my vagina, or across my clitoris if I choose to bend this flexible beauty up as I use it. I absolutely love the feeling of them inside - because they're a bit squishy, I'm able to squeeze my PC muscles and feel the contrasting textures of the dildo. It is just so incredibly delicious.

Once I can get over wanting to squeeze it in place, the Niagara is fantastic for thrusting. It rubs my g-spot wonderfully, and has actually made me squeak. Not sighs, quiet moans, or anything so reserved. It earned an actual squeak of intense pleasure. Even without adding vibration - which the silicone can transmit perfectly - this guy can pack a serious punch.

It is a bit long, in my opinion. I left the last two inches unused, but figure a bit extra is better than leaving me wanting more. Plus, it gives a little something more to hold onto while thrusting, either for you or a partner.

It does have a base for use in a harness, which may be a situation where the extra length is even more of a bonus. I haven't used it as such, but I'd think those few extra inches could easily make the difference between OH! and oh no.
