Use

The Bent Graduate by Don Wands is a glass beauty. He has a bent side that's perfect for g-spot stimulation, and a straight side with bubbles. I found that the straight side worked well to warm myself up before using the bent side on my g-spot. I think the graduate would be good for someone looking for a non-vibrating toy to explore their g-spot with. The bend is more dramatic than some other g-spot toys, so I think he is best suited for someone like me who requires something less subtle.

The graduate can be used for temperature play, in the water, and he's also quiet for roommate living.

Since the graduate is glass, you have to be very careful when trusting because you can bruise your cervix. While I was rapidly thrusting, I accidentally twitched my wrist and learned my lesson about being careful. I wouldn't recommend anal use, even though there are bubbles and bulges -- there isn't any real flared base to keep from losing it.

Material / Texture

My graduate is made of glass, and it scores a perfect 10 on the Eden safety scale. It is not at all porous. As I mentioned before, this was my first glass toy, so I surprised at how heavy it felt in my hands. The weight was fantastic in use, and added to the stimulation. There aren't any imperfections on the surface, and I didn't even find any in the center when holding it to the light. Texture wise, he is very smooth and required very little lube. The bubbles on the straight end dramatically add to the stimulation, and I don't think it would feel quite as good without them.

Here are the bubbles:

There is also a bulbed end on each end of the graduate, which almost reminds me of the head of a penis when inserting.

Being made of glass, the graduate is very rigid and there is no give at all. I think he could be used for both beginners and advanced users. I'm glad I got him for my first glass toy because the quality is fantastic, and there are two ways to use it. If you find you don't like the bubbles, you could easily switch it around to the curved, smoother end.

Right out of the box, there is no smell or taste. It felt clean, but I still recommend cleaning it before use.

Design / Shape / Size

I can't stress how gorgeous my graduate is. I got the navy one, which is very deep blue and can look almost black at times. When held up to the light, it looks much lighter in color.

The Bent Graduate has certainly earned his name. As I already mentioned, he has a more obvious curve or bend. This worked really well for me, because g-spot toys with a more subtle curve don't stimulate my g-spot at all, it's a little further in for me. I was able to climax really easily, which has never happened for me internally before this!

Curve

Size:
He is 6.75 inches in length. The product page states that only 4 inches are insertable, but if your anatomy allows you to take in the full 6.75, you can do that safely. The graduate is 1.25 inches in diameter, and only 4 inches in circumference. So, beginners shouldn't have any problems with the size.

Here he is compared to an iPhone:

To someone who has no knowledge of toys, the graduate is very discreet. If they do have any slight knowledge, then they would probably be able to figure it out. Since it doesn't vibrate, there won't be any problems with him accidentally turning on from bumping into something.

Performance

There isn't anything that I don't like about the bent graduate. It's beautiful and does just what it's supposed to do. It won't work for everyone since we're all different and there isn't one g-spot toy that will work for every woman. I think it's safe to say that he will work for the majority of women, especially since most of the reviews so far have said so.

The greatest thing about this glass toy is that you have two chances to make it work for you. If you find that the g-spot side just isn't doing it for you, you have another side that is just straight with bubbles to work with. I loved using the straight end to warm myself up, since it's easier to get pleasure out of g-spot stimulation once you're nice and aroused. Rapid trusting is what brought me to climax with the g-spot side. This was my first g-spot orgasm, and I enjoyed the more internal feeling of the g-spot orgasm, versus clitoral -- which tends to be more on the surface for me.

I really wanted to try to come up with something I didn't like for the sake of this review. The only thing I can say I truly don't love about my graduate is that I am now in love with glass toys, and I fully intend on expanding my collection.
    • Easy to use

Care and Maintenance

Caring for the graduate is very easy. There are 3 different ways that Don Wands recommends for washing. I simply wash with antibacterial soap and warm water, since it's so readily available for me.

Care instructions on the box:

For now, I store it in the box it came in, but I plan on buying one of the padded pouches from here to make it easier to get to him. Since the graduate is made of glass, you can use any type of lubricant. The glass is also very smooth, so less lube than you would usually use for a silicone toy is needed.
    • Easy to clean

Packaging

The bent graduate came in a clam-shell type plastic mold that was inside a cardboard box. The packaging is not at all discreet, so if you plan to give it as a gift it would be better to wrap it or put it in a gift bag. I use the original packaging for storage, but it can be a pain in the butt to take it out -- especially if you are already in the mood.

How to use the toy is pretty self explanatory, so there isn't really any user instructions inside the box. On the outside though, there were instructions for temperature play, as well as the different ways you can clean the graduate.

Experience

I can't get over how pretty this glass toy is. My experience was fantastic. It felt so good, and I even got my first g-spot orgasm from it! I didn't squirt and haven't yet, but I feel I have been very close. I think my biggest problem is not being able to completely let myself relax yet. I would definitely recommend this toy to any girl looking for some g-spot stimulation.
Follow-up commentary
My graduate is still amazing. Just as gorgeous as ever, and even more effective now that I have played around with my g-spot some more! I have found though that I enjoy slightly less rigid material on my g-spot. I don't fault the bent graduate though, because it's glass and does exactly what it's supposed to do.
