The Double-O Glass Dildo Review (A Touch of Glass)

The Double-O Glass Dildo Review (A Touch of Glass), June 2021
The Double-O Glass Dildo (A Touch of Glass)

Has it really been a year since I last reviewed a glass sex toy? Apparently it has.

Thankfully, a company called “A Touch of Glass” came to my rescue and asked if I would like to review another one of their amazing glass creations.

I chose the Double-O dildo, because I fell in love with its textured shaft and deep, emerald green colour. 

The Double-O is the third sex toy I have tried from A Touch of Glass and the others really impressed me. I had high hopes that the Double-O would do the same.

Product Description

The Double-O is a double ended dildo, so both ends can be used for penetration. On one end, the shaft contains raised, spiralling rings and on the other end, the shaft contains lots of raised nubs.

Because the texture varies dramatically on each shaft, they feel very different during use. Essentially, the Double-O is two dildos combined into one.

Although the Double-O has two ends to play with, it is not really designed for sharing between two people at the same time. It is just too small for that. Due to its banana shape, the length will vary depending on how you measure it.

In a straight line (from tip to tip) it measures 7.5 inches long, but if you measure along the curve, the length is 8.5 inches. Both of the bulbous heads measure 4.25 inches in circumference and this slims down to 3.1 inches around the shaft (give or take a small amount for the texture).

These measurements may sound petite, but remember that glass is a rigid material. It doesn’t bend, flex or squish during use, so it can feel more imposing compared to a silicone dildo of equivalent size.

The Double-O is made from medical grade, lead free, borosilicate glass, making it super strong and completely safe to use as a sex toy. If you are concerned about using glass, I recommend reading some of the guides on A Touch of Glass’ website, which may help put your mind at ease.

Despite being a highly textured dildo, I was pleased to note that the Double-O was finished perfectly. There were no sharp edges or other imperfections to be found. A Touch of Glass have so much faith in the quality of their products, that they offer customers an unconditional lifetime guarantee.

My Experience With The Double-O

Because I have a sensitive vulva, I often experience some degree of discomfort when using silicone dildos. On the days when I feel particularly tender, I have to avoid silicone altogether.

These are the days when I will reach for my glass dildos. It might sound counter-intuitive (after all, glass is rigid and can feel more imposing), but glass is so polished, it doesn’t create that much friction.

With a small blob of lubricant, I can thrust as fast as I like, without feeling irritated afterwards.

Of course, a completely smooth, texture-free surface will not provide much stimulation to the nerves around the vaginal entrance.

For g-spot play, I actually prefer this, but for standard in-out thrusting, a smooth surface can feel quite underwhelming. This is when a textured glass dildo can shine.

The Double-O attempts to cover both bases, providing a curved shaft for g-spot play and two textured shafts to stimulate the vaginal entrance. For g-spot play, this particular combination was not ideal for me.

I could only enjoy the hard, fast jiggling for a certain amount of time, before the texture began to irritate my vaginal entrance. This happened much faster when using the nubby shaft. Ironically, the Double-O’s banana shape made it perfect for g-spot play.

When I inserted one shaft, the other would curve upwards, pointing towards the ceiling. Unlike straight dildos, I didn’t have to over-stretch my arm in order to apply pressure to my g-spot. This made the whole session easier and more comfortable.

For me, the Double-O produced its best sensations when used for slow in and out thrusting. The texture felt so much more enjoyable when I took the time to savour the sensations.

To me, the spiralling rings feel rumbling as they slide in and out of my vagina. The nubs produce a rougher, brushing kind of sensation with feels very intense. Depending on my arousal levels, that intensity can either be a good thing, or a bad thing.

Using the Double-O slowly, I still received enjoyable g-spot stimulation, thanks to the curved shaft. When I teamed the Double-O with a clitoral vibrator, the all-round stimulation was mind blowing.

Cleaning And Care

For the most part, the Double-O is a low maintenance sex toy. It is, after all, made from a completely non-porous material and can even be sterilized if you so wished.

However, you do need to pay extra attention to the textured areas when cleaning. Lube and body fluids can gather in between the nubs and spirals, but a soft toothbrush will sort that out quickly.

The Double-O comes with a storage pouch to keep it clean and safe between uses. Another great thing about glass is that you can use any lubricant base and not be concerned about damaging your dildo.

Summary

I am definitely glad I added the Double-O to my glass toy collection, but I have to admit, it isn’t a favourite. I still prefer my double ended, Lady Rose dildo, which is also available from A Touch of Glass.

The difference between the Lady Rose and the Double-O, is that the Lady Rose has a texture-free g-spot arm, which suits my preferences more.

That being said, the Double-O is certainly not a bad dildo. I was impressed with the quality, aesthetics and overall versatility. It all comes down to personal preference. If you like your g-spot toys to have a little texture, then you get two options to choose from with the Double-O.

If you prefer a smoother ride, the Lady Rose might be a better choice for you. Either way, I highly recommend these gorgeous dildos from A Touch of Glass.
