The first thing you will obviously notice about this sex toy is that it is created using beautiful glass that is crystal clear. There is a very slight curve to its shape. There is also a slightly raised blue swirl that runs from top to bottom on the surface of the dildo. This toy is very cool to the touch but warms up quickly once introduced to your body heat. You can also run some warm water over the Blue Spiral G before you use it. HOWEVER, if you decide to warm it with water, make sure to have a firm hold so you won't accidentally lose your grip on the toy. I have not dropped a glass sex toy personally (KNOCK ON WOOD), but I can imagine the damage caused if the toy fell on a very hard surface! For example, the glass could chip or shatter; it could create very sharp edges that are invisible to the naked eye, but your crotch would be able to tell. Wouldn't that be a very fun trip to the ER! Especially if you were a prude and you had to explain your injury to the attending physician!

You can use this particular sex toy with or without lube. I have tried both water- and silicone-based lubricants and have had no problems with them having any effect (that I could plainly tell) on the overall condition of the toy. The lubes also washed off very easily. Once again, if you choose to wash it in your sink, maintain your grip on the toy. When the toy gets wet under the faucet, it's extremely slippery! An alternative method would be to simply get a damp washcloth or towel to clean the toy. Please just use your common sense!

This toy does have a little weight to it but not overly so. In order to add some extra zing during insertion, I vibrated the bottom of the Blue Spiral G with a personal massager. The glass was a great conductor of vibration and gave me a stirring sensation!

I did not enjoy this dildo as much as my other sex toys while I engaged it in couples play, because glass does not have any give at all. If your partner becomes out of rhythm while using this dildo on you, it can cause you discomfort and even pain. The slight curvature of the glass could also be an issue, but that depends on your sensitivity and personal preference. I did not enjoy the dildo when it went in the wrong way, but once I properly repositioned the toy, I LOVED it!

I can not become accustom to the way this particular glass sex toy maintains temperature. I keep it stored inside a felt pouch, inside a locked cabinet, because I got kids (enough said) and it still I freezing. I know, run it under warm water but for some reason I still have a difficult time choosing this toy during playtime. I still pass over it and I still think that it should be in a lighted glass display case. Once my kids move out maybe that is just what I will do. Imagine my husbands face when he sits down to dinner and realizes my china has been replaced with glass sex toys! LMFAO!
