Sexy spades small - glass plug discontinued by Doc Johnson - review by Vulva Designs

This glass plug is reasonable in size. It's not too large for the inexperienced but not unnoticeable for the experienced. Being that this is a flat based plug there isn’t much manipulation involved other than clenching and tapping. This is best for someone who wants that full sensation during other erotic activities. It works well during intercourse because of its mid-range size. It’s big enough to stay in place while having vaginal sex but small enough to prevent discomfort. The short bulbous head tops a thinner stem and a flared base for safe anal play.

You cannot go wrong with a glass toy, especially when it comes to anal toys! Glass will be a comfortable smooth glide every time and there will never be an unpleasant odor that can happen with cheap plastic, rubber, and jelly toys. Some may cite the rigidness of glass as a downside if they are nervous about trying anal play for the first time but I cannot say enough positive things about it and I am so happy I started with glass. So to some glass may be considered for advanced users but not to this girl!

With anal play, the smoother the better which is what makes glass so superior in this user’s eyes. Other materials can pull on the sensitive tissue in the anal canal no matter how much lubricant you apply which leads to discomfort and can be dangerous. Add your texture with ribbed, bumpy, and swirled glass toys rather than rough jelly porous toys!

I loved the design of this plug! The top is round enough for comfortable insertion whereas some are a little too pointy. The stem of the plug that sits at the muscle is just small enough to be comfortable but still looks nice and sturdy, and the base is big enough to get a little rough while wearing it. Overall the plug worked quite well. Removal can feel a little awkward due to the bulbous head but that is the nature of any plug.

The best part about this toy is, of course, the excellent material. Removal is always a little weird but plugs are not my favorite when it comes to anal toys. For anyone who likes lightweight plugs this would be perfect.

Glass toys are one of the easiest materials to take care of and you have free range of lubricants! A little toy cleaner or boiling water will keep your toys nice and clean which is especially important for anal toys. Being that glass is a non-porous surface you don’t have to worry about any bacteria getting trapped in your toy. You can use any kind of lubricant, such as water-based or silicone, on a glass toy with no worry of the material breaking down if you make a mistake. Typically people find silicone lubricant superior for anal play which brings silicone anal toys down on my anal toy list despite silicone being a wonderful material for toys. I typically keep my glass toys in the box they came with or padded pouches to prevent them from getting bounced around and chipped.
