Doc Johnson Love Glass Vibrator

Date: (15 November 2010)

As soon as I found out I was getting a Glass Vibe to test... I was hugely excited. I'm a huge fan of glass toys so was intrigued to find out whether the combination of glass and vibrations would really work.

So first things first:
Packaging: The vibe is packaged in a clear plastic box with a very funky, almost psychedelic pattern... the emphasis is on waterproof and phthalate free... oh and mustn't forget the 3 speeds... I'm liking so far!!

Doc Johnson has a statement written on the back... the one part which grabbed me straight away was that 'glass transfers incredible vibrations'... that's it I thought... let's get this baby out!!!

Aesthetics: So to the vibe itself... well the first obvious thing is the colour... a sort of iridescent golden yellow...which I quite like... anything other than the usual pink is good for me!! Now with other glass toys I have...they usually carry a bit of weight behind them...this one is alot lighter than I expected, almost doesnt feel like glass. There's an easy screw bottom battery compartment... switches on with a push button.. push once for low speed, push again for medium and once more for high!!!...simples!!

Performance: As usual I always get my other half in on the act.... so presented him with my new tester... I lay back on the bed with a huge grin.... 'test away' I said. Now normally with glass toys I chill them for at least a few hours in the fridge beforehand...as the sensations you get simply send chills down your spine.....I didn't do it with this one.. but it does have the ability to be chilled or heated up or taken into the shower if you wish....a multitude of possibilites....definitely a big plus in its favour.

Anyway....back to me..well...lying on my back. He pressed the button once onto its lowest setting and slowly teased me round my thighs......um.......well.....I could barely feel it.....'wack the speed up some more' i said.....and he went straight for the kill....turbo speed 3....well that's what I was hoping. He pressed the glass against me.........he stared at me waiting for my reaction..........I just stared back......the vibrations were doing absolutely nothing for me...just wasnt strong enough.....huge disappointment....the statement on the box had really pulled me in...yet on this occasion Doc Johnson has failed to live up to the hype.

Conclusion: This had such huge potential initially... great packaging, enticing statement, unusual look, easy function, the option to heat, chill or use in water.....it has it all really...except it falls down on the last hurdle.....the vibrations just dont pack a punch....and did nothing for me...very disappointing...I expected more from such a renowned sex toys maker.

Would I try another glass vibe.....I'd say yes... it's just this one didnt work for me.....perhaps the vibrations may be strong enough for others so don't just dismiss this straight away as it has so many other plus points. But I'd say if your used to strong vibrations then look at alternative products as this will not fulfil your needs.
