A name like Stubby G doesn’t automatically conjure up sexy images. It’s just true. It kind of reminds me of a short, balding old bookie with a cigar permanently attached to the side of his mouth. Pretty hot, huh? To some people probably, but to me, not so much. The name actually made me giggle and made me pick it!

When I first opened the box, I was thrilled at the sight of the 8” vibe (6 insertable inches), with all its ripples and fabulously curved G-Spot lovin’ tip. The nubbed ridge right by the handle looked like it would be perfect for clit stim action too. Being splashproof was definitely a bonus too! Gotta love fun shower times (don’t mistake this for waterproof… you can take it in the shower, but don’t take a bath with it). The biggest push for my excitement was that Stubby G is a Fun Factory toy, which I knew meant silicone that is uniquely soft yet firm and has this silky smooth quality that I have yet to run into in any other toy. And yes, this toy felt like perfection. Pure joy. Plus all Fun Factory toys are phthalate free, non-toxic, hypoallergenic and super easy to clean.

While the Stubby G was pretty sweet, I prefer the sheer size and strength of the G-Twist, Stubby’s bigger ribbed brother. But that could just be love, I am impressed with size! The only disappointing thing to me is that both vibes have the same hard to open battery compartments (it is seriously impossible to open!) and the dial controller that can be bumped and turned off easily. (I like to remove batteries when I store them, in case for whatever reason they get bumped then mysterious buzzing won’t be emerging from my drawer!) I much prefer the Fun Factory plus/minus vibration speed buttons.

I wish I had more positive things to say about my experience with Stubby G., but aside from the battery compartment and dial there are no negatives. Not all vibes work with all bodies, so reviews like this can be tricky to navigate in regards to making choices about purchase. Stubby G is a great silicone vibe that may be perfectly suited for your body… and the vibe you hate the most might be my personal favorite. So while this vibe might the first one I grab out of my nightstand draw (home to all the frequent flyers), it’s a quality toy that will remain in my collection to revisit.
