Not worth the money....for us!
In the end and in short Gigi is a beautiful, sexy, sleek, luxurious toy that needs to be redesigned to be bigger, longer, wider, the control panel must be completely moved and redesigned, and they must put a locking mechanism on it to lock Gigi in the "on" position.
I wish I would have saved my $100. It was frustrating because Gigi is beautiful and powerful but designed very poorly. We wanted her to work right....she simply wouldn't!

My wife and I have been playing with G-spot play recently. She recently had her first female ejaculation and it was really hot, so I have been trying to find a toy that would stimulate her g-spot just right enough to make it a regular affair. I did some research and found Gigi. It seemed like the perfect toy, so I bought it and waited.
Within a week, Gigi arrived. The packaging was very pretty and pleasing, classy to say the least. But when I opened up the box, I was a little surprised at how small the toy was. The description on EdenFantasys says it’s a 6 1/2 inch toy, but only 4 1/2 is insertable. The curve in Gigi makes it appear much smaller. For $100, I would want more for my money.
My wife is not a big women, she wears a size 2 dress. But this toy is tiny for her. She likes to be filled up and Gigi didn't do it. It’s a very sexy looking toy, very elegant just like most of Lelo's toys, but that is where the luxury ends for Gigi.
Gigi’s vibes are powerful and can be used internally on the G-spot or as an external clitoral vibrator. In addition, it can be used on man's taint and genitals (See below for our experience).
The shape looks perfect for G-spot stimulation and the vibes are great, it really does hit the spot. Maybe my wife's anatomy is different, but I just wish it was much bigger and fatter. I just didn't feel I could get a good enough grip around it to use it effectively.
The biggest issue with Gigi is the controls. In our opinion they are very poorly designed and poorly placed on Gigi. Please read our experience below for details about that!

Experience
Gigi is a really sexy looking toy. Buts its functionality leaves much to be desired. Here is the biggest issue; its controls are designed completely wrong. In using Gigi, one must hold the lower half of the vibe to put pressure on the partner's G-spot. The problem is that the controls are so sensitive and the toy is so small that when I pushed it into my wife; I would constantly and inadvertently hit the controls and either shut it off or change the vibrational pattern. Of course, this usually happened at exactly the wrong time and it disrupted us partly because we were constantly going back to the controls to find the setting we liked most. This led to a frustration level in both of us. Obviously, this is a serious design flaw. It could be very easily fixed however, if Gigi just had a method for locking the device into a vibration we liked. Or LELO needs to find an entirely new way of designing the controls; the former seems much easier and makes more sense, especially because Gigi does have a locking mechanism to prevent her from being turned on accidentally, like during travel. LELO really should consider making a similar mechanism that locks Gigi into the "on” position.
While my wife really loved the vibes Gigi had, we were constantly being disrupted by the accidental changing of the vibe pattern.
Here is a plus to Gigi. It can be used as a G-spot vibe for her as well as a clitoral vibrator. The shape was much more conducive to that for my wife. In addition, my wife took Gigi to me and used it to massage my taint (perineum) and my balls while she performed oral sex on me and it felt GREAT! But, she too had the problems with the poorly designed controls and repeatedly hit the wrong button, changing the vibe pattern at exactly the wrong time. UGH!

Follow-up commentary
2 months after original review
We've learned to really enjoy Gigi. It's gone from one star to three.
We were very critical of Gigi when we originally reviewed her. Funny how things change. The other night, my wife and I were fooling around and she asked for Gigi, awkward controls and all. She said she loved the feel of her strong pulsating vibrations and especially liked the shape of the head of the vibe on her g-spot. Long story short, we took out Gigi and had a load of fun. We still experienced the same issue with accidentally hitting and changing the vibrations, but now that we know how to quickly get it back to the setting we like, it's easier. Again, two things would take this toy from good to great: 1) a locking mechanism to keep Gigi locked at the exact speed and vibe pattern you want and 2) a thicker, longer body to reach way in and get her in those hard to reach secret spots she loves!
In the end, and despite our criticisms, we keep reaching for Gigi, and we like her more each time! Today I would move Gigi from one star to three!
