Inked glass probe - glass dildo discontinued by Cal Exotics - review by cottonxcandy

The Hand Blown Glass Probe by California Exotic Novelties is a pretty amazing toy. Not only is it beautiful, but it is incredible in terms of performance. One of my favorite things about this probe is the glass material which you can heat up or cool down depending on what sensations you like.

This toy features two different ends, one is curved with a bulb and is amazing for g-spot stimulation. I think the bulb is exactly the right size to fill me up and satisfy me. The other end is nice for anal stimulation (just be sure you are very careful to keep a hold of the curved end so you don't lose the toy, it does have a bulb on the curved end but it might not keep it from slipping inside of you if you're using it deep and aren't careful) with four balls in increasing sizes to help work you up to the shaft.

I absolutely love the hand blown glass this probe is made out of. The toy is nice and heavy in your hand and feels high quality in every way. There aren't any rough spots and the glass is entirely smooth with the exception of a tattoo design. You can feel a very very slight difference when you run your finger over the design, but not enough that it's noticeable. I've even attempted to scrape the tattoo design off with my fingernail and nothing happens to it, so it seems safe and durable.

The tattoo design printed on the Hand Blown Glass Probe by California Exotic Novelties is definitely one of the best things about it, it makes you feel like a complete bad girl! If you aren't daring enough to get a tattoo yourself, why not get a tattooed dildo? Or if you're covered in tattoos already, your dildo should probably match!

The absolute best feature about this toy is the fact that you can heat up or cool down the glass. Simply warm up a glass of water in the microwave (Don't microwave your toy directly! It is safe for your toy, but not for you. Microwaving causes uneven warming and you could burn yourself.) then slip your toy into the glass of water for 2-5 minutes and you're ready to go with some delicious heat! Or maybe you like things on the cool side? Don't stick your toy directly in the freezer (cold, dry things tend to get stuck to warm, wet things!!!), instead use a glass with cool or cold water to cool it down.

This probe would be great for beginners and advanced users alike. It's easy to use for beginners, but the beautiful design and material makes it interesting for anyone who has experience as well.

I love this design, I think the double end idea is brilliant because I pretty much have two toys in one. The size is just perfect for me, the shaft is 3 1/8" circumference then the bulb moves up to 4 3/8" circumference. I feel like the bulb is the perfect size to fill up my vagina and the beads are really nice because they're increasing in size.

The shape is almost phallic, but the double ends kind of take away from that. It definitely resembles a penis, but it doesn't make you think penis right away. This toy is not very discreet because it's obviously a dildo but I actually think it would look gorgeous displayed on a shelf or something.

I've said it before, but I love the double ends on this probe. One end has a large bulb and the other end has four beads in increasing sizes. The bulb is amazing for g-spot stimulation and fills up the vagina very nicely. The beads feel great anally especially because you can work your way up to the shaft and slowly stretch over each bead. They feel equally great vaginally though, I love feeling the different ridges on the beads slide in and out of me. I would be careful not to be too rough with this toy because the glass is very hard (of course) and might bruise you.

Cleaning the Hand Blown Glass Probe by California Exotic Novelties is a breeze. Since the design is entirely glass it is dishwasher safe, just find a safe place for it in the top of your dishwasher and you're good to go. Otherwise you can spray with some toy cleaner or use soap and warm water in the sink. I've tried using a green scratchy pad on the tattoo design and even that won't remove it so I don't think there is much you can do to mess it up.

The glass material is compatable with any kind of lubrication you choose to use.

Unfortunately this toy doesn't come with a case, but I bought a padded cloth bag to store my dildo in and it has done great so far!

This probe doesn't come with a case unfortunately, but it does come in a plastic container. The container is just a disposable piece of plastic and won't protect from any impact.
