Reflections Glee - It's Vibrating Glass, Come See!
Originally I was very excited about getting the Reflections Glee. After using it many times, I've grown to realize that it's just not the toy for me. Its curved tip design is a bit too curved for my body, and that's unfortunate because it was my first experience with glass and there were times that I did really enjoy it. Its texture was very sensual. I just wish the vibrations had been a bit stronger. It will probably still be very enjoyable as a clitoral stimulator.

Pros
Interesting texture. Multiple speeds. Lovely color! Easy to clean. Easy to use.
The Reflections Glee - G Spot vibrator is a toy best suited for those who enjoy the experience of glass with a twist. Running off one AA battery, this vibe is perfect for those who enjoy mild vibrations and like their toys on a quieter level, enjoy their privacy, have roommates, or live in a dorm. The Glee is also completely waterproof and can go with you to the shower, bath, or pool, and has an interesting velvety texture that many will find exciting.
Since this vibrator is made of glass, you have the option of changing its temperature from hot to cold which can make for hours of fun time with a partner or solo. Use it all over your body, from your nipples to your pussy, as the curve of The Glee makes teasing your clit especially easy as well as locating your g-spot. However, please be careful with anal play. Anal insertion is not recommended as the base isn't big enough to keep your ass from swallowing it.
The Glee is made of Tempered glass. What's the difference between tempered glass and regular glass? Regular glass is way more dense and breaks easier, shatters actually, shooting off into a million pieces and going everywhere. Tempered glass does just the opposite. If a piece of tempered glass were to break, it would simply suffer a drama free 'snap'. It also holds onto temperatures (yay for temperature play!), and you don't have to continue to add more and more lube as you play. Hooray for tempered glass!
The Glee is also non-porous, phthalates free, and hypo-allergenic. You get no smell or taste with this toy, but don't run your teeth along it. It's like nails on a chalkboard.
Anyone can try The Glee, no matter your experience level. It's really a toy that everyone can enjoy and add to their own experiences.
HINT: The velvet-like feel to this material adds a bit of a drag to the toy which can be interesting and extra stimulating if you've never experienced it before.
Manufactured by Doc Johnson, the Reflections Glee has a pretty standard g-spot vibrator design with a curved tip. It has a total length of 6 inches, 5 inches of which are insertable, a circumference of a little over 4 inches, and a diameter of 1.25 inches. This isn't going to be the biggest toy in your collection, but size isn't the point here. It's location, location, location.
The bright pink color I love, but the fact that the curved tip tends to 'hook' on my pubic bone, not so much.
Located on the bottom of the vibrator is a little button with the number 3 on it. Press it once for the first level of vibration, again for the second, and again for the third, increasing in intensity. All vibrations are steady, even if they are on the milder side for my taste. Simple enough, right?
My only issue with this is that the moment the button depresses, the vibrations stop until the button releases and the next level of vibrations begin. Dear Vibrator Makers: Please don't ever interrupt my vibrations!
The Glee is by far the quietest toy that I own. When company is over, I won't hesitate to pull this toy out and even take it to the tub because it's waterproof, fully. Not a drop got in around the battery.
Keep your Glee clean with some antibacterial soap and hot water, or use toy cleaner if you have it.
You can store it in the box it came in or something softer. EdenFantasys has great little pleasure pouches that would come in handy for times like these when some padded storage is necessary. It would have been nice for Doc Johnson to have included a storage bag with the toy, (I believe most glass toys come with one) but unfortunately they didn't.
HINT: If all else fails, a good pillowcase will always do the trick.
With glass, you get the lube of your liking. You can even try out one that you've had wishlisted and just haven't gotten around to getting. Water, oil, or silicone lubricant is fine. Give it a shot!
The Glee came packaged in a clear box decorated in pink and red hearts and swirlies. The toy was clearly visible and it was obvious that it was a sex toy, but the packaging was cute.
You can store your Glee in the box, and it would certainly make a nice gift.
Good for storage
Not discreet
Would make a nice gift
Follow-up commentaryI don't like it anymore11 months after original review
The curved tip at the end of the Reflections Glee continued to catch my pubic bone and it became uncomfortable enough that I just had to give up. I wanted to like it so badly, really I did. Maybe it just wasn't a good fit for my body, I'm not sure, Regardless, it has been retired.
