Constructive discussions on Glass dildo:

Glass for beginners
I'm looking to get a glass plug and maybe a glass dildo. I am new to anal and I hear that the seamless-ness of glass is great for beginners, so that's

Are glass toys comfortable for anal use?
I love anal play, and just ordered my glass toy. Never thought about using it there, but what do you guys think?

Cab the glass in glass toys break?
Or is it special like pylxy glass stuff?

Which glass dildo is better?
I would love a glass dildo and can't decide which one to get.

Which of the new glass dildos appeal to you the most?

Ok.

Here's the honest to goodness scoop on it.

Glass and steel are almost identical to the other. The only really big differences are;
stainless steel is heavier
and glass is cheaper
steel takes a moment or two longer to warm to body temps
glass is a heck of a lot cheaper

What I would strongly suggest is find the steel you are looking at, then find a glass toy that is the shape you are looking at, and buy that one first. See how it works with your body. And go from there.

I prefer stainless over glass, but it's really just the look and weight that's different.

I feel like stainless steel is more safe because it won't chip if you drop it.

I like stainless steel. It can't break like glass can. Only downside is if you're not careful, it can get scratched up or pitted if you accidentally use a product with bleach on it.

I agree with what woman China said. But I liked the serenity so much I decided I don't really need the pure wand. I think for didos or probes I would choose glass. But when I bought an anal plug I went with steel because it seems safer to me. The glass neck and sitting didn't sound good to me. I'm sure it is safe, but for me I feel more comfortable mentaly with steel.

Haha, I like that you said cheaper twice, I was thinking the same thing! But I also don't think I'd like the weight or the cool feeling of stainless steel.

Stainless steel.

Stainless steel is heavier, has a higher specific heat (holds the heat/cool better), and conducts electricity if you're into that. Glass is very similar, but can be made in more colors. If thermal or electrical play isn't that beig a deal for you go with whatever you like - they're both very durable.
