My verdict

Okay, this toy is something else, in the best way because it's glass and it vibrates. Yes, you read that right, I was genuinely surprised (and a little fascinated) when I first got my hands on it. The sensations it delivers are definitely different from your average silicone vibe. For one, the vibrations lean toward the buzzy side, and the entire 6.5-inch shaft has these shallow indentations that look cool but don’t really add much in terms of texture during use. Once you lube it up, and you absolutely should, it becomes super slick. Like, really slick. (Maybe don’t use this one for butt stuff. It’s a little too easy for it to slip, and no one wants an awkward ER visit on their sex résumé.) That said, the glass material makes it perfect for temperature play. You can run it under warm or cool water before use for a little extra sensory fun, just steer clear of anything too hot, because ouch.

Design

Playboy Pleasure In A Twist Glass Vibrator featuring its sleek design and textured feel.

Let’s start with how it looks: the In a Twist by Playboy Pleasure is, hands down, one of the classiest toys I’ve ever laid eyes on. It’s got a sleek glass shaft with elegant indented swirls that run the full length, think art museum meets bedroom drawer. The insertable length clocks in at 6.5 inches with a diameter of just under an inch (0.94", to be exact). It’s slender, smooth, but not what you’d call wide. So, if you’re someone who craves that full, stretched-out sensation, this might not be your match. But if you’re into something refined and just a little adventurous? Keep reading.

Experience

Playboy Pleasure In A Twist Glass Vibrator featured next to the box for reference.

Once you’ve added a generous amount of lube, a glass vibrator becomes a bit of a wild card in the best and worst ways. It’s incredibly smooth and slippery, which means it can slide just about anywhere (fair warning: just about anywhere doesn’t mean everywhere, maintaining control can be a bit tricky!). That said, one major perk of glass toys is their ability to play with temperature. Want to turn things up or cool them way down? Run it under warm water or chill it in a bowl of ice for sensations you simply won’t get from silicone or plastic options.

One thing to keep in mind is this glass vibrator seems to be a little louder than their silicone siblings. It’s hard to say if it’s just the material, or how the motor interacts with it, but glass doesn’t exactly absorb sound—it kind of sings with it. Not a deal-breaker, but maybe not the toy you reach for when you're trying to be super discreet.

Quality

Playboy Pleasure In A Twist Glass Vibrator held in hand for size reference.

Playboy really got it right with this toy. I don’t know what kind of magic they worked behind the scenes, but wow it’s a stunner. Think: sleek, design-forward, and just plain pretty. Like something you’d proudly leave out on your nightstand, if you’re into that kind of thing. The finish is silky smooth, the build feels sturdy and high-end, and the magnetic charger snaps on with zero hassle (major win). There’s one button at the base is a small feature that makes a big difference. It’s easy to find, super responsive, and oddly satisfying to press. When I first unboxed it, I had a full-on “ooh” moment. From the packaging to the feel in my hand, it gave luxe, intentional, and seriously well-made vibes.

Price

At $47.99 on SheVibe (before shipping and tax), In a Twist is a pretty sweet deal considering everything you’re getting. The sleek design, high-quality build, and bonus potential for temperature play totally back up the price tag. Plus, the five-year warranty, that’s a huge win, especially for a product you can’t exactly return once it’s been, well, you know... used. My only gripe is it would’ve been nice if it came with a little storage bag or case. Just a small touch that would’ve made it feel a bit more complete.

Performance

Playboy Pleasure In A Twist Glass Vibrator with a box description of the Playboy brand.

This Playboy toy is slick! Like, no-friction, glides-in-like-butter slick. That might not be everyone’s vibe (pun intended), but I personally loved how different it felt compared to my usual toys. While it’s technically designed for penetration, it actually also shines as a supersized clitoral bullet. The vibrations aren’t super rumbly, which some folks might prefer, but paired with a wand its a total game-changer. Think: layered sensation, edge-of-the-bed kind of good.

Packaging

Open box of Playboy Pleasure In A Twist Glass Vibrator.

The outside of the box is genuinely eye-catching with a pearlescent, shimmery finish that catches the light in a really pretty way. There’s a magnetic clasp too, which gives it a luxe feel, and all the key info you’d want if you were browsing in a store. So, first impressions is pretty solid. Once you open it up, though, the vibe shifts a little. Inside, the toy is held in place by a basic clear plastic insert, with the charger and manual tucked underneath. Not bad, just not quite as impressive as the outside. Still, overall it is a pretty good unboxing experience.

Materials and care

The Playboy Pleasure In A Twist is a waterproof toy made of borosilicate glass which sounds intense, but just means it doesn’t heat up or cool down as quickly as regular glass. (Totally safe, by the way. I had questions too.) It’s also phthalate- and latex-free, so if you’ve got sensitive skin or allergies, you’re in the clear. The only part that isn’t glass is the button at the base, which is silicone with a little plastic ring. Otherwise? All good. As for cleaning: it genuinely couldn’t be easier. Just wash with soap and water, pat it dry, and pop it back in the box. That’s it.

  • We-Vibe Chorus: 'O' So Intimate!

    We-Vibe Chorus: 'O' So Intimate!

    The We-Vibe Chorus—and its pressure-sensitive remote (yes, you read that right! Just give it a squeeze to amp up the vibrations)—gets a gold star from me for delivering hands-free, blended orgasms during sex with my partner. Personally, I don’t orgasm easily from internal stimulation alone, let alone from intercourse, but the Chorus makes the whole experience way more enjoyable (wink if you know what I mean). After plenty of testing, we’ve found that this vibe shines best with a grinding motion rather than thrusting, making it a top-tier lovemaking toy in my book. Flying solo? No problem! Tuck it into snug underwear for a hands-free thrill, or pair it with a dildo for an added layer of sensation. Bonus tip: The remote-controlled feature makes it perfect for some sneaky play—whether you’re at home or feeling adventurous out and about. The charging/carry case that it comes with is also a splendid idea as it is discreet and keeps all dust off the toy and remote. Edit: we tried to use it late last night and it was confusing. Maybe keep it for a sober encounter.

  • Iroha Rin+: Wonderfully Squishy!

    Iroha Rin+: Wonderfully Squishy!

    Overall, this toy brings something new to the table—and I’m into it. The tip is exactly as advertised: marshmallow soft. It’s got this pillowy give to it that’s honestly unlike any other toy I’ve used. I’m used to firmer textures that push back a bit, so the squish factor here was a fun surprise. And to be clear, different doesn't mean bad. It means interesting. It means they're onto something. One thing to flag, though: While the brand markets this as a G-spot vibe, I found it worked better as a mini wand. That’s not to say you can’t use it for internal stimulation—I just preferred it externally. The rumbly vibrations do a solid job on their own, but if you’re craving a bit more, you could absolutely pair it with a clitoral vibe (a bullet would do nicely) for that blended orgasm magic.

  • Satisfyer Triball 2: All of the External Stimulation!

    Satisfyer Triball 2: All of the External Stimulation!

    The Satisfyer Triball 2 is definitely an intriguing little gadget—and when it comes to stimulation, it doesn’t hold back. Each of the three balls has its own motor, so you’re getting a whole lot of vibration happening at once (yes, it’s as intense as it sounds). That said, the toy is super bendy—maybe a little too bendy. I found myself wishing for a bit more firmness, especially when I was trying to apply pressure exactly where I wanted it. The flexibility can make it tricky to really press into those pleasure zones using just the handle. Still, I genuinely enjoy using it. The vibrations are nicely rumbly (not too buzzy!), and the shape? Pretty genius. The balls are designed to stimulate the clit, vaginal opening, and anus simultaneously—and in my case, they hit the mark perfectly. Of course, everyone’s anatomy is different, so your mileage may vary, but if it lines up for you, it’s a lot of sensation in a compact package.

    "Mission Control, this is NotSoInnocent, it seems this rocket was able to take us further than we could have ever imagined!" This is "one small step" further into the realm of clitoral stimulation toys that can help you take a "giant leap" into ecstasy! If Buzz Lightyear had to satisfy you with a rocket (that wasn't his own), this would be the one! All puns aside, I would definitely recommend this product! The variety of settings, the power levels and the waterproof rating make it an awesome companion, while its adorable nature makes it easy to leave it out on a nightstand as a cute space themed dickeration.

    Evolved Novelties Paradise Rechargeable Silicone Panty Vibrator Review: ♫ She dreamed of para-, para-, paradise ♫

    Evolved's Paradise Panty is available on their site for $54, and I'd say it brings about a peaceful, more serene feeling that than one of a paradise. I LOVE the magnet on this toy as it actually does a great job of keeping the toy in place, unlike that of the Lock-N-Play. In regards to settings I find I only care about the 3 single vibrations with this style of toy, and I don't care if I have to use the button or the remote to operate it, as the results are going to be the same. Its quiet nature is more aligned with those that like being public, or just don't want to be heard by roommates. The waterproof feature is nice for cleaning, but I don't care to use this type of toy anywhere wet, as again, I'd use something else. The use time is actually longer than the charge time which is pretty on par with feelings of paradise and the remote being a chargeable one is nifty. The only downsides for me personally are the lack of storage pouch and too smooth nature. I'd use this for a slow burn finish while watching something action packed or cerebrally witty. For a fast paced, wham bam alone session I'd grab something else first.

  • Our Erotic Journey's Virgo Mini Vibe Review!

    Our Erotic Journey's Virgo Mini Vibe Review!

    I love this little vibrator! The Virgo Mini Vibe had just enough kick, at the right price, to be a perfect addition to your toy collection. I love that the Virgo Mini Vibe is shaped like a woman, (a virgin), to resemble the meaning of the zodiac sign, "Virgo,". I am a Virgo and was born September 13, and I just love that this toy comes from an entire collection of toys, curated to fit your zodiac sign. It's quiet enough to be sneaky in public, charges quickly, and is small enough to fit right in your purse, or bag, etc. The silicon is high quality, medical grade silicon. And the price, for what you get can't be beat. I couldn't find a lot of instructions online, or see how long it actually takes to charge or how long the battery life is, but I have only charged it once, for about an hour, and it has lasted a couple uses at this point. The only issue I have with this toy is that the vibrations are not as strong as I would prefer, and therefore, I am giving this toy a 4/5.

    DOXY Die Cast R Review: To die for!

    Oh. My. God. 😮‍💨 This thing is powerful. You're working with a big wand, so you're going to get big power. Not to say that this toy is perfect, but it's definitely one of my favorites. If you get this toy, you're definitely going to have a fun time. The toy excels at just hammering away at you. It's a great bit of fun that I don't get tired of. I would say that its only weaknesses are in its design, but the pros far outweigh the cons. This is definitely one of the best wands (and sex toys) that I currently own.

  • Hop to the "O" with the Bwild Classic Bunny

    Hop to the "O" with the Bwild Classic Bunny

    The Bwild Classic Bunny Vibrator is a soft, silicon, beginner-friendly rabbit that’s more about gentle vibes than mind-blowing power. It’s a solid pick for those dipping their toes into dual stimulation toys, but if you’re a power seeker, this bunny might feel a little tame. The design is undeniably fun and playful with little floppy "clit bunny" ears. The toy is actually powered by two AAA batteries and that really surprised me (in not the best way). These batteries are of course, easy to source but they run out quicker than you’d like if you’re planning to use it in extended play sessions. The internal arm is slim and curved for G-spot stimulation, but it doesn’t penetrate very deeply, mainly because of its size, making it better suited for gentle exploration rather than deep dives. The external bunny ears are flexible and soft, designed to focus on clitoral stimulation, but the 5 vibration modes are all on the buzzier side rather than the famed rumbly. So, think more tease, less knock out. Cleaning is relatively easy since it’s made of body-safe silicone, but it’s not waterproof. You’ll need to wipe it down with a damp cloth and mild soap or toy cleaner, being cautious around the battery compartment to avoid water damage. For its price point, this bunny is worth a shot if you prefer a softer touch, but it’s not going to give you that deep, powerful stimulation that some might crave. It’s more about light, approachable fun for those who enjoy a softer vibe.

    Pure Envy My Little Friend Review: Say Hello to My Little Friend!

    Every man's new favorite slogan: "Small Package, Big Orgasms!" Pure Envy's My Little Friend should make all of my other mini vibrators envious since it quickly became a top favorite! It's so tiny, which just in aesthetics makes it a winner in my book, but despite it's small stature it feels quite powerful! This device has pinpoint accuracy, 10 overall settings, is super quiet, utterly tiny and discrete, quite powerful and just awesome. The only downsides are the fact that there's no real difference between the first intensity and the third, it's oh so slight; there's no carrying pouch; and there is uncertainty about the IPX rating, the site says IPX5 but the box says fully waterproof. An IPX5 rating can withstand being under the sink and in the shower, but can NOT be used in the bathtub or fully submersed in water for any period of time. Make sure to dry the toy well after washing. Though there is no real difference in the first 3 settings, they do start out with an unexpected and enjoyable punch.
