There are few toys that have gotten so
many favorable mentions as the GIGI2 by Lelo.
From their Femme &
Homme line of toys, the GIGI2 is more of all the things we all loved
about it's original namesake. The design and polish has just
improved. More power, more modes, completely waterproof and boasting
4 hours of solid playtime (and a standby of three months), Lelo is
correct to call this a pleasure object and not a toy.
For those uninitiated into the cult of LELO, let me give you a brief. The Swedish company launched in 2003 and has quickly risen to be recognized as one of the key game players in the industry. That mostly stems from the way the company has taken to their branding and design. The product line they've built is solid, finely crafted and well thought out. The power base of their toys is excellent for the form factor and the visual design has obvious intent in form and function.
The GIGI2 takes it's predecessor and steps up the game. The contoured shaft of the GIGI is designed to place pressure directly on the g-spot and the solid stiff shaft allows as much pressure as you can exert. GIG's soft matte medical grade finish is comfortable and yielding but not to squishy as to mute the powerful vibration of the new motor inside. The new four way controller at the base of the handle is much improved in terms of intuitiveness. You'll have no problem controlling this with one hand and not being able to see it should your attentions be focused elsewhere.
Solo use for this little wonder is fantastic. Although not as large in volume as some of the other offerings in the line this smaller direct pressure toy is made for internal stimulation. It's total length is six and a half inches with an insertable length of about 3 1/2 or four inches. Considering it's intended use for g-spot pressure it's ideal as you don't want to overreach. The handle itself is also long enough to get a good solid grip and some leverage on it as well which is necessary for those who need more pressure. Just shy of three ounces it has a soled weighted feel but not so much that it might cause your wrist to tire.
The
LELO boasts 4 hours playtime with a full charge. I've found that it
exceeds that if you don't use it at full power and just less than
that if you max it out. The toy charges to full power at 2 hours and
I recommend that you don't charge it until it's fully exhausted and
then allow it to fully charge to make sure you get the most out of
the battery. A full cycle charge will always allow for a longer and
stronger performance from the battery. Don't leave this plugged in
all the time as the battery will degrade and the cycles will become
shorter. The GIGI does come with a 1 year warranty though and I've
found that they really do stand behind their products and dealing
with customer service is never tiresome or frustrating.
For couples use I find the GIGI is best used in combination with cunnilingus or anal sex but not as much for vaginal intercourse. Because of the wand shape it's easy to hold while going down on your partner, allowing you to exert steady rhythmic pressure on her g-spot while using your mouth on her labia and clitoris and at the same time not cramping your wrist at an awkward angle. It also leaves your other hand free to place pressure just at the top of her mons pubis so you can sandwich gently her g-spot between your hand and the toy. It's also great for double penetration during anal sex if your partner enjoys the feeling of being vaginally stimulated with vibration while being penetrated analy. I don't recommend this toy for anal insertion however, the BILLY from LELO being better suited for this because of the flare on it's base. The GIGI2 is also whisper quiet, considering the power that it controls, the intense vibrations never get buzzy, rattley or loud. Maxing out at <50db, the loudest you'll find it is when using it externally only. Or if you have clitoral piercings.
Like all the LELO products, the GIGI2 comes with a handy little lovely satin storage pouch. I recommend using it if you have several silicone toys as they shouldn't touch when stored as the color may leach from one to another if the silicone isn't as high as the quality used by LELO and it would be a shame to mar the matte finish. A charger is included as well and the box it comes in is also quite nice if you're fastidious about keeping your pleasure objects all neat and sorted.
If you're just
starting out your sex toy collecting (it always starts with one) the
GIGI2 is an essential part of your arsenal. It's powerful, small,
quiet and fantastic quality. Put your money where your pleasure is,
you won't be sorry you did.
