This is the second toy I owned and the beginning of my fixation on aquatic and tentacle like toys. It is glass and so easy to keep clean and has a lovely design. For cleaning, I use lukewarm to hot water and soap and make certain to rinse it thoroughly. Some reviewers have concerns about certain carcinogens. With hand soap I find I prefer using some form of soap as opposed to none. However, optimal circumstances would be to invest in some form of sex toy cleaner.

The bubble ridges provide a very unique texture experience - especially with the dip between them. It is a bit flat. It is wide, but not perfectly cylindrical, which also gives the Icicles 24 a bit of a different feel. There aren't many ways to utilize this; it works well for clitoral stimulation as well as penetrative (both vaginal and anal).

This isn't my favorite toy and it is fun to use for a brief amount of time but just isn't enough to use solo. It is good for stimulation but not for climax; which often leads me to leave it in the drawer or exchange it for a more satisfying toy. It is a bit too short for my taste and doesn't work so well for G-spot stimulation - which means it's a tedious business working for appropriate stimulation for climax. However, for teasing - it would be perfect. Just enough to stimulate, drive someone mad without actually being enough for satisfaction. Or, at least that is my experience.

Due to the toy being made of glass, it is advisable to keep it stored somewhere with at least a bit of padding. I have several old pillow cases folded and placed in the bottom of my night-stand drawer to keep it from rolling around and risk chipping or damaging this toy. Always remember to check glass toys over for fractures, chips etc. before use. While the toy can be packed for travel, it is probably not recommended unless you own a secure case - as glass isn't always so travel friendly.

I love the design on this, very pleasing but kind of just sits in my drawer. The texture is lovely but the overall size and length are a bit of a let-down.
