Tantus Inner Band Trainer — Test & Review

The design is well thought out to properly stretch muscles in a comfortable and purposeful manner. Other toys taper too quickly or too slowly, the Inner Band Trainer is just right. I had looked at a lot of other toys before deciding on this particular design, and I feel that I made the most excellent choice for me. Though it has a basic look, that is what makes it so effective for stretching and training. As for the feel; once the muscles have loosened up, the texture and shape can be soothingly pleasurable.

Experience level is not much of a factor unless you are a beginner. It is super easy to use by anyone though not something I would start out with. This is a toy that will help you to work up-to two inches. You should already be comfortable with at least 1.25 inches or more. Just lube up well and slowly insert, maybe a bit at a time to start, and work your self up till its comfortable to insert to the hilt. I started at 1.5 inches and it took me 5 minutes a day for over aweek to be fully impaled, but I was working it for health reasons.

The Qualty of the Tantus Inner Band Trainer is top notch - 5 stars for sure. No seams or mold marks. It is a perfect stiffness of excellent 100% Ultra-Premium soft silicone. Soft and stiff at the same time, not floppy. The color of mine is Crimson and it was well blended to be consistant throughout. The texture is wonderfull, not really visible, but easily provides pleasant smooth sensation.

I've seen more expensive and super cheap toys that are similar. I believe this was priced just right for what it is. Given the quality of design and materials, I am very happy with the price and very happy I purchased it. Cheaper toys are made with cheaper materials that could be too squishy, too hard, or even toxic. More expensive toys would just be a waste of money because there is no room for improvement on the Tantus Inner Band Trainer. If mine was stolen, I'd quickly buy it again. I've considered buying the next size up, but the current price is far too steep for my needs.

The Tantus Inner Band Trainer performs very well, the task / purpose for which I purchased it. No batteries to recharge, as quiet to use as anything else without a motor. As for pain, I did experience some, but not because of any fault with the toy. I was training my muscles to stretch. I had began over a year ago when just half an inch insertion was painful. By the time I worked up to the Tantus Inner Band Trainer, I was well experienced and knew how to push my self at a slow and deliberate pace. Now I continue use for routine maintenance. Like I said "daily use", a routine therapy.

I do not have any packaging pictures or memory of it. I do remember being worried about the shipping label giving away my secret purchase and the relief I felt when even I didn't know what it was, being mixed with other packages of the day. So I see my lack of memory about the packaging as a good thing because I don't like paying for a fancy useless box and formed plastic that I'd just throw away. It didn't include a special bag or any extras which is fine because I store it on my shower shelf and I don't need extra stuff, the trainer is all that I wanted.

If Body Safe is a major concern to you as it is too me, then know that I am completely confident with the Inner Band Trainer being perfectly safe. In over six months I've never detected residue or even residual odors. No odors of anykind indicate to me that it is made with non-porous, safe, and quality materials. It spends its resting life in the shower where it is primarily used, then washed with simple soap. Since the purchase of the Trainer, I have trust in all products from Tantus to be exactly as advertised. This toy is also boilable and dishwasher safe, but I see no reason to go to that extent as it rinses off so well. Lube- ALWAYS remember to use adequate / plenty of lube. I am solely into water based lubes only as I am putting this into my body. I've never seen definitive proof that silicone lubes are compatible 100% with pure silicone toys, though mainstream comments suggest that hybrid lubes are safe. Likewise, I would not use an oil based lube as that is much harder to clean, and again, it will be in my body. The best answer is to do your research and use whats best for your toys and body. I do know that this toy works exceptionally well with "Slippery Stuff" Gel, and X-lube powder mix- both are water base, body safe lubes.
