Product Review - G-Swirl
The G-swirl Aka. The Stubby G is packaged like an action figure: it’s a cool looking toy that comes in a cool looking box with neat accessories (a little sachet lube and the all important AA batteries). The G is a Good Vibrations specialty toy, made by fun factory - sent to me by the good people over at Vibe Review.
It’s made out of silicone which is non-toxic, non-porous, non-absorbent - it’s designed to be durable, flexible, and a whole lot of fun. Somehow G was a little bigger than I expected it to be, but it’s cute design was encouraging, so I was ready to give it a go.
What I liked: for starters, I really did like the texture of this toy - it’s flexible and soft, yet firm - even while I write this review, I can’t stop squeezing and bending it with my hands. Vibrations travel really well through this type material. The vibrator control was super easy to use - no buttons to mess with: just a dial that turns both ways. The actual quality of the vibrations was great, you can adjust the sensation from an intense tickle all the way up to a clit melting buzz. It also is an awfully quiet toy, at least, until to turn it to the highest setting where it sounds like it’s ready for takeoff - which might be fine, if you’re ready too.
What I didn’t like: The dial was almost a little too easy to use, once or twice I had it in a good spot and then accidentally bumped it with my thumb and had to re-adjust the settings again - which was actually not that bad, since it’s so easy to do. The base ridges didn’t seem to do much for me, until I tried pressing my legs together - then I was able to enjoy the vibrations outside as well as inside.
This toy would be great for: someone who wants a super easy to use vibe that has a little length and fun texture bumps for insertion. It’s cute and it’s powerful - what more can you ask for?

Women seem to like vibrators and toys with a ridged shaft. Evolutionary theory would suggest that men should be built this way also. Whay aren’t they?

Anon - Oscillation Jones? I love it haha.
Exile - ookaaaay
Anon2 - first, not all women do; second, men do have ridges on their shaft, just not as many as some toys do; third, modern sex toys have only been around for less than 50 or so years, evolution takes millions of years - who knows, maybe in a few million years men will come with huge, ridgy, vibrating penises, but I doubt it; since the original model seems to work just fine, it’s the plastic kind that needs to be jazzed up.

Great toy design, nice power, and easy to handle. I agree that the base ridges are a bit overrated.
This toy is a much, much better version of the Nubby G and Waterproof Nubby G. Both of which were really popular 2-3 years ago.
This is one of those toys that experienced women and beginners can play with.
Liked the in-depth review.

this was my first vibrator! it was great, I have many fond memories
I named it Oscillation Jones. the g-spot friendly curve was my favorite part, though I have to agree with Shay that the ridges at the base were not that effective. everything else was spot-on!
