Would you be able to share the name of the store where you got these from? I realize you're probably trying to avoid giving them publicity, but if you feel like telling, I'd love to know, just so I can avoid them.
Yes, sure, just email me and I'll inform you. In a few weeks time I'm hoping to have a bigger blog post about wooden toys - I already know about coatings, from the top end brands and from these brands that have let me down.
Such a shame, that light wood double ended dildo looked like it was a lot of work to carve. Wood is a naturally porous material and extended contact with liquids will make the fibers swell and split - hence the roughness of the darker 'turned piece'. We spent two years developing our water resistant 'Lubrosity' coating, to avoid precisely these problems.
Wow that does not sound good...such a shame because its thing like this that would put me off the idea of wooden toys...even though I think that if they have a good coating I would probably prefer them over plastic.
Wow that does not sound good! Its such a shame because its things like this that would put me off even trying a wooden toy..even though I reckon I would probably prefer them over plastic from a play point of view as well as an environmental.

ReplyDeleteThat's horrific!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe they've cut corners in such a way that they've created dangerous products. Thanks for warning us all.
