Alumina Flow Dildo by Tantus


The Alumina Flow by Tantus is a beautifully designed eco-friendly sex toy. I’ve had this dildo in my collection for over a year now and I’m sure it’ll be flowing alongside me through my entire life. There are three additional toys in the Tantus Alumina range, two of which can be taken apart and have interchangeable parts with the Flow. 




The toy arrives in a stylish cardboard box with an outline of the product in silver; the box seems very luxurious compared to other packaging Tantus use. Once opened you find the dildo resting in a black foam insert; along this you will also find an information pamphlet. The pamphlet has a small description for each toy in the Alumina range. For the Flow, it states it can be used not only as a dildo, but also as a pelvic floor muscle exerciser. There are instructions on how to cool and heat the product during temperature play; this can be done through running under a hot or cold water tap. There are also cleaning instructions. As well as being able to use your general toy cleaner, all the Alumina toys are dishwasher safe. Just make sure they are completely dry before screwing back together and placing back inside its box. The toy is made in a gorgeous iridescent purple and appears elegantly smooth. Not only is its appearance eye catching but the texture of the alumina is delightful to stroke. Each toy has been anodized; not only does this protect your toy from scratches, but it also means that the purple coating will stay on better without chipping or scratching. The aluminium used for this toy is 100% aeronautic grade. After a bit of research I’ve actually found out what aeronautic grade metal really is. Aeronautics is the process involved in manufacturing things like aircrafts, but in regards to this product it doesn’t mean it’ll fly - I’ve tried it, and it just travels a short distance before falling heavily to the ground. Anyway, what it means is that the metal is designed to flow smoothly in relation to the movements you use, with minimal drag effect. The Flow is 9.5 inches long and 4.75 inches in girth at the widest point. The two sections are both functional, though personally I find the thinner half to work nicely as a contoured handle. Separating the sections is a rubber washer which is 1 inch in diameter. The sections join together through a screw and thread system; this sometimes can make a squeaking noise when taking apart or putting back together. The toy is weighty compared to most toys I own. Even though aluminium weighs marginally less than other metals, this product still weighs more than a glass or ceramic toy of similar proportion. 




When using the toy you may find it a little tricky to insert due to the coldness of the metal. Luckily you are able to use any form of lubricant with this toy, which not only will aid in insertion, but will act as a barrier between the cold metal and your skin while it gradually adjusts. If you still are having trouble inserting the toy, you can flip it round and use the thinner end while you and the toy warm up. Once inserted the toy seems to naturally be drawn in by your pelvic floor muscles. I really am able to feel every spasm grip round this toy, and I do agree that if you are looking for a weightier pelvic floor exerciser, then this is a good toy to consider. The toy easily flows in and out when a thrusting motion is used. The surface of the toy starts to warm, making the sensations more pleasurable.  The toy does hit the g-spot, and due to the firmness of aluminium it does produce a nice g-spot orgasm eventually. It’s doesn’t lead to such a quick response as a more curved toy would, but it’s still enjoyable. I do find that sometimes it will be slightly tiring thrusting the weight of the metal, but it’s worth it. Removing the toy is very simple. Once the toy is removed from the vagina it feels incredibly hot, comfortingly warm to touch.  This toy holds temperatures well, so if you are a fan of cooling or heating toys, you won’t have to worry about this toy losing the temperature sensations before you reach climax.

Cleaning the toy is very simple; just unscrew the two parts and clean with your favourite cleaner. Be careful not to lose the washer. Even though it’s not essential to have the washer, it will keep the threads on the screw in better condition.

This toy truly is incredible, and I hope that eventually I will have more from the Tantus Alumina range. Even though the contour of the toy doesn’t hit my g-spot accurately enough to produce an orgasm quickly, I am able to just lie there with it inside me, while enjoying the warmth it provides (or coldness, if it has been chilled beforehand).

  2. Yep, a lot of toys are now dishwasher safe, including some silicone... I don't own a dishwasher, so I have to stick to the traditional hand-washing method :)
