Tantaly Daisy Plus Unboxing: 5 Must-Know Steps for First-Time Big Ass Doll Owners
If you're thinking about buying your first big ass doll, the Tantaly Daisy Plus is pretty much unavoidable. At 40.6 lbs of TPE, with a universal masturbator cavity and a built-in poseable skeleton, the specs sound great on paper. But when you're staring down nearly 20 kilograms of soft, floppy silicone for the first time, most newbies freeze at the same question: "Okay, it's out of the box—now what?"
This guide pulls together real user feedback from Tantaly community and hands-on reviews to walk you through your first session, step by step, so you don't learn the hard way.
Step 1: Unboxing & Handling—Privacy and Weight Come First
The first challenge with the Daisy Plus isn't the sex—it's the logistics. Tantaly ships in a completely plain, unmarked outer box, so your privacy is covered. But at 40.6 lbs (18.4 kg) net weight, you'll want a dolly, a cart, or guaranteed doorstep delivery. Don't plan on casually tucking this under one arm.
Inside the box, the doll is locked into a foam cradle. Do not try to lift her straight up by the hips—TPE is extremely soft, and single-point pressure can tear the material. Instead, lay the box on its side and let gravity do the work. Slide her out gently, supporting both sides of the hips evenly with both hands.
A lot of first-timers overlook the zip-top carrying case that comes in the box. It has a shoulder strap and exterior pockets, and it fits a couple of spare masturbator sleeves plus lube. It's genuinely useful for storage and transport later on.
Step 2: Installing the Sleeve—This Is the Daisy Plus's Killer Feature
The Daisy Plus's biggest selling point is its built-in, swappable sleeve cavity. The chamber measures roughly 22 cm × 8 cm (8.7 × 3.1 in), which fits most standard-size strokers on the market, including Fleshlight-style cases.
Installation tips:
-
Dust the outside of your sleeve with a light coat of talcum powder to cut friction.
-
Use both hands and push the sleeve in horizontally. Don't force it in one-handed.
-
Wider sleeves (around 150 × 85 mm) lock in the most securely. Smaller inserts won't grip properly and will slide out.
Notice: Don't swap inserts every day. Even though the Daisy Plus is designed for modularity, constantly pulling sleeves in and out will eventually stretch and weaken the TPE opening. Pick a favorite sleeve and stick with it.
Step 3: Picking Your Position—Start with Doggy Style
Thanks to the internal skeleton, the Daisy Plus's legs can spread outward roughly 25 degrees and rotate downward about 80–90 degrees, opening up doggy, cowgirl, spooning, and more. But if it's your first time, start with doggy style.
Here's why: 40 lbs is no joke. Cowgirl means supporting her entire weight on your thighs while you thrust. One veteran on Reddit called it "a hell of a workout"—fun, but exhausting. Doggy lets you park her on the edge of the bed or a desk, use the furniture to take the load, and focus entirely on rhythm and depth.
Side-entry works best as a "ending" position. It's the least physically demanding and gives you full stroke length when you're ready to close out the session.
Step 4: Gear Up—Don't Skip the Heater and the Lube
TPE runs cool at room temperature, and that's the single biggest gap between the Daisy Plus and a real partner. The r/tantaly community almost universally recommends pairing it with a Tantaly heating rod. The standard version hits a cozy 112°F (44°C) in about 5–10 minutes. If you want sterilization built in, the UV heating rod takes closer to 15–20 minutes but kills bacteria while it warms. Either way, the difference in realism is massive.
Lube choice matters too. Because the cavity is deep, go with a mid-to-high viscosity water-based lube. It reduces friction without running dry halfway through a deep stroke. Avoid silicone-based lube—it degrades TPE over time and will shorten your doll's lifespan.
For advanced users, some reviewers have experimented with inserting a vibrating butt plug into the anal opening. The vibrations transfer strongly into the sleeve cavity, adding an extra layer of stimulation. Totally optional for a first-timer, but worth knowing about.
Step 5: Cleaning & Maintenance—This Is What Determines Longevity
Let's be straight: 80% of a TPE doll's lifespan comes down to how well you clean it. Here's the post-session routine for the Daisy Plus:
-
Rinse immediately. Flush the cavity with warm water and a douche or irrigation bulb. Tantaly's official guidance says keep it under 122°F (50°C)—anything hotter can soften and deform the TPE.
-
Dry thoroughly. Use an absorbent stick or a microfiber cloth to get every drop of moisture out. You must dry it completely before storage, or you'll grow mold inside the cavity.
-
Powder down. Once dry, coat the surface with renewal powder or standard talcum powder. This restores the skin-like texture and prevents the surface from getting tacky and collecting lint.
-
Store flat. Keep her in the included carrying bag or lay her flat in a cool, dry place. Keep her out of direct sunlight and don't stack heavy objects on top of her—TPE holds a memory and will deform under pressure.
May your Daisy Plus sessions be everything you're hoping for—and then some.
