It's hard, it's heavy, it's girthy. It's fantastic. I have many toys, but my favorites are the ones that I can really hold onto and go deep with. The Casper is perfect for that. I'll be honest, I love it when I can get that bangin' cervical orgasm, and this does the job beautifully. I've become a big fan of glass toys, and I love the veiny texture. Some of the texture can make cleaning a little more involved, but it's not difficult. I have not done any temperature play yet with it, but I think it would be nice warmed up.
