Midnight twist - dildo sex toy by SSA Glass - review by Sir

Midnight Twist, made by SSA Glass, is a glass dildo with two ends, each possible for penetration. It's best used vaginally, as it doesn't have a large enough base (on either side) that it would be safe for anal use. You can use Midnight Twist to rub against the g-spot, to be thrusted, or to be incorporated into partner sex. It is fairly average in size, so it can also be a good warm-up toy to something bigger. Remember, though, that it has little bumps along its shaft and upraised stripes, making its texture noticeable to people who are sensitive to textured toys.

The dildo is made of pyrex glass, a material that's nonporous, can be sanitized, and hard as a rock. Literally, it is. You will not be able to bend, shape, or mold this piece at all to fit your body—what you get is what you get. Glass is great for people who love pinpoint pressure on their g-spot, because it will be able to reach and press against the g-spot with a nice amount of force. It has no scent or taste, and does not retain scents either.

With the few bumps and ridges of the stripes, this toy is mildly textured. The bumps may or may not be felt in use, but the strips most likely will not be because they are so close to the shaft and barely raised at all.

Midnight Twist has two ends, one being a more bulbous shape, and the other more phallic. The phallic end has a slight curve, but the bulbous end is straight. Either can be used for penetration, depending on which you like more. It's honestly a very clean-cut, dry dildo. Straight shaft, slight curve on the phallic head. This makes it a great piece for people new to using glass, because it's also fairly average-sized.

It's not the sort of thing that I would call discreet, simply because of the heads of the dildo. It's quite obvious that it's not just a regular paperweight or piece of art. However, in terms of glass dildos, this is certainly one piece of art. The blue glass that it's made of is so deep that you can barely tell that it's blue—it almost seems like a black. And the white swirls are just to die for. It truly is a work of art (but not one that you'll want to leave out).

The toy is 7 1/2" long and 1" in diameter at the shaft (not including the bumps). The largest diameters of this toy are 1 3/8" at each of the heads. That's why I call this average-sized: because its length does not need to be used entirely, but its diameter is fairly average.

This toy can easily be "slipped into" (or slipped into you) because of its curved head and straight shaft. But I will say that the curve is best for more shallow g-spots as opposed to those that are deeper. Regardless, it does make a great thrusting toy for those that like penetration, but it will be useless to people who have a deeper g-spot and who require g-spot stimulation for orgasm.

I personally really like it, though. I think that it's a great toy and is very, very attractive. It's a toy that I'm happy using on a partner, because it is just extremely beautiful (and it gets a nice reaction, too). Some people do not like glass for partner sex because it is so rigid, but if you go slowly and use the toy carefully, you should be alright.

Glass is extremely easy to take care of and clean. It can be sanitized using bleach, being run through a dishwasher, or being boiled. It can also easily be cleaned, if not needing to be sanitized, using warm water and soap. Glass can be used with any form of lubricant, be it water-, silicone-, or oil-based. My favorite is water-based, it just makes everything extremely slippery.

Since is is glass, make sure to store it somewhere where it will not fall and break, like in a drawer as opposed to a shelf. I suggest keeping its drawstring pouch and putting it in there when storing it.

Midnight Twist comes in an Edenfantasys drawstring pouch. The pouch is not padded at all, but it is sufficient for storage and should keep the toy safe if it is stored properly. I, of course, kept my pouch, because it's just so beautiful! Though the toy does not come with any instructions or material information, I was happy that it came with such a lovely bag; the bag makes up for the lack of information.
