I just purchased this toy and am glad to hear it’ll be safe to use. It has an awesome design.

I appreciate that you took the time to comment on a review over concerns that even I had.

@disqus_O0QUB6yTq3:disqus these totally look Dr. Seuss like. Hehe. They look nice, but I’m iffy about ceramic. I’ve never liked the feeling of it. For some reason when I touch it, it makes me cringe and I start to gag. I’m an odd ball.

Thanks for he explanation on the manufacturing process. I really appreciate your clearing things up on that.

I have really enjoyed the No. 5. In fact, I can’t wait to try others in the line. I’m really curious about the vibrators. I think these products are really well made and the ability to fill them with water is very unique.

I’ve read through the comments and I hear lots of talk about paint. Before you jump to conclusions, you need to understand the manufacturing process of ceramics. With ceramic pottery, there is no paint used at all– instead, the colored glaze is a vitreous substance that has been fused to the ceramic object through firing. The glaze strengthens, decorates, and waterproofs the ceramic item. It’s not a paint that is applied to the outside of an object that can chip or wear off. Much like anodized aluminum, the glaze is infused into the ceramic substrate. Once the piece is fired and comes out of the kiln, its texture becomes smoother because of the glaze. There should be no concern about paint, much like there’s no concern over colored ceramic and porcelain dinnerware. Nobody I know has ever second-guessed eating out of a glazed ceramic plate or bowl, so why should a ceramic vibrator be any different?

What is true is that our Ceramix has attracted a ton of questions all around the globe and we understand why. It’s our job to educate our customers and reassure everyone that our line took over two years to develop and we’ve covered every angle, literally! The success of the line has been overwhelming at every trade show we’ve attended around the world, and we hope that our customers will appreciate the research and development we put into this line for the past two years. We’re confident that we’ve got it right with this unbelievable line. And despite your past opinions about Pipedream, I can personally ensure you that this line will conform to all European health, quality, and safety standards and it is everything the packaging claims to be.

I personally hope everyone who is intrigued by the line gives it a chance, and please, let me know what you think, I believe we’ve created something special here, and I’m confident that you’ll agree after trying. Please don’t hesitate to contact me for any reason….

Best Regards,

Cool. I’m not the only one who sees it. I pictured it in Alice in Wonderland too. And I think even the shape of this one looks more Seuss-like than the rest in the line.

I think this really boils down to reputation of the company due to past and other current products sold. If it were one of the commonly “trusted” companies we’d never question it.

I dunno, maybe a job for Dildology.
