Oh, yes, I have ceramic toys as well. They are also completely odorless and tasteless. Ceramic is yet another body-safe material. And, yes, acrylic would be yet another tasteless, odorless, body-safe material.

EF does have some stone dildos by Diamond Lovetoys (I believe that's the name of the company). The Para Jandia is one such toy, plus they have three or four others. less

Thankyou. Smell was my big problem. Im not thrilled about phthalates either but alot these days seem to be free of that.
I do prefer something thats more flexible but at the same time, I want to have a bigger variety of toys so I will give the firmer materials a go. I do like silicone!
I havent tried metal, wooden, ceramic or stone.
I was actually liking the sound of the stone but if it smells, Im better off staying away. What do they do to the stone to make it smell bad?
Disappointing that theres no way to get rid of the odour.
I so want to add my Sensafirm (Tommy Blade) and Adams Pleasureskin to my collection but I have had them airing in a woodrobe since early May. They have slightly faded in odour but unfortunately not enough. I have tried washing them in all sorts. May sound strange but mouthwash seemed to drown out the smell for a short time.
Those two have a foul taste when ya suck them - GROSS
I had one Jel-Lee toy at the begining of the year and I notitice that the two times I used it, it left me slightly itchy. He was the worse smelling toy too. My hands and anywhere else it touch would stink of him. He had to go!!!
Theres some nice Jel-Lee rubber toys around that I like which is depressing...lol.
Does anyone know exactly what the Clear stone products are made from?
I bought one back in '08' and he is fine - Clear Stone Series Luminous Dong. Had a slight smell but it didnt effect me.
It says its a realistic jelly.
Thankyou for the replies less

Keep in mind that any toy that smells is also giving of some sort of chemical. Smell always equals chemicals. Sometimes they're mostly innocuous, like chocolate (though chocolate does have its hazards), but with toys of unknown composition smells could be anything.

If it clears up after you wash it then it probably was just something used in manufacturing, but if it stays then that chemical can get into your body every time you use it. less

To be fair, while smell = chemicals, smell does not have to mean toxic chemicals. It's just hard to be sure most of the time.

The TPR toys I have don't smell much.

I'd try burying the dildo in dry baking soda, or shake dry baking soda all over it in a bag and see what happens. It probably won't ruin it. less

Thanks guys. Thats an idea - the dry bi-carb. I think that a plan for today.
And yes - I'll make certain its all off. I think I'll wash it a few times and then even soak it in water for a few hrs incase more comes out.
I definately wouldnt want that internally...yikes.
I'll let you know how it goes. I soooooooooooo HOPE it works.
I am leaning towards TPR and the silicones. I'd actually like to give ceramic a go too.

One thing thats got me curious - what do they seal the ceramic and timber toys with? Is the sealant safe? less

I'm not sure what the glaze is called for the ceramic dildos, but Lovemoiselle and Duncan Charles are both reputable companies. Plus, the glazed used on dishware and ceramic bakeware products is body-safe/food-safe, so I don't see why the glaze on ceramic toys wouldn't be also. I have three Lovemoiselle toys and there is no odor whatsoever to them, so there is not likely to be any reactive chemicals.

As for the wood dildos, I have a couple of NobEssence toys and they are sealed with a body-safe, food-safe sealant called Lubrosity. It is similar to the sealant used for wooden bowls and other wooden eating utensils. less
