This dildo is rather versatile because of its plain shape. Though it probably is best for vaginal use (it does not have a flared base for anal play), it's the perfect size for just keeping it inside you, for thrusting, for simulated oral play, for rubbing against your clit, and pretty much anything else you can think of.

This Sil-a-Gel dildo is quite bendy. It has a nice weight to it, but is very pliable. The material is smooth to the touch (except for the veins/ridges, which are quite prominent) and not too sticky.

It does have a rather prominent rubbery smell that transfers to hands and fabrics, so pair it with a condom or a wrap if that tends to bother you.

This toy is on the smaller side of dildos, but that is specifically why I purchased it. If most dildos tend to be uncomfortably large, the Veined Slim may be a good match for you. It stays roughly the same circumference from base to head, and while it is rather long, it's up to you how much you want to insert.

The ridges along the dildo are a nice touch. I enjoyed them, and I usually prefer a smooth experience.

Whether you buy it in red or purple, it's not going to be very realistic-looking, but the swirly pattern of the material is interesting to look at.

The best thing about this toy is its simplicity. No bells and whistles, no vibrating element, no intimidating size. If you're looking for a beginner toy that's just a little more interesting than a smooth, plain vibrator or dildo, this might be the ticket.

The only negative element I can think of is the scent. It can be a bit of a turn-off, but I'm willing to overlook it because I enjoy it so much otherwise.

This toy is latex and phthalate free (yay!)and easy to care for. Just wash it after use and store it in a dry location. I use this with a water-based lube when needed, but I believe silicone would be alright to use too.
