  I would avoid all Romanitx products or thouroughly research them before buying and test them before using. (These are the 4 dildos that I am reviewing: Icicles #55 by Pipedream, The Double Trouble Glass Dildo by Electric Lingerie, Firefly 5” dildo by New Sensations Novelties, and The Player dildo by Rascal Toys.) All products that I investigated were manufactured in China. Not to mention, they contained incorrect statements. Also, upon closer inspection, I have discovered that many of their products have been made cheaply and are not safe for use. Brands such as Pipedream and Electric Lingerie glass dildos may be toxic and are not safe for use. These companies do not properly create their products meaning these items may carry undue/ negative stress in the glass. (Meaning that eventually it will break due to this stress). Also, brands such as Pipedream and Electric Lingerie, coat their products with a type of "luster" to give it a glossy look but these "lusters" are often highly toxic and not for internal use. Quote from Dangerous Lily: "Another interesting tale which involves, naturally, Pipedream’s Icicles line. Jane told us about someone who boiled a red Icicles dildo and the water turned red! Whatever was going on here, they weren’t using red glass. It sounds like they were using some sort of luster or paint. Not safe! I tried boiling some colored dildos to see if there would be any bleeding in the water and I didn’t detect anything. Someone else commented here about the color flaking off during boiling of their Pipedream Icicles.” I can personally testify to this as I own an Icicle #55 and have watched in amazement as this product has gone from a beautiful shade of purple to a faded pink color (without any help from boiling or use). Not to mention the “luster” on both glass dildos has begun to develop bubbles and "chip". Which is absurd as I have yet to use either product (and never will) and have babied them. Both silicone dildos were manufactured in China (“The Player” and the “Firefly”). These two vary in price, “The Player” was roughly $80 after shipping and the “Firefly” $30. “The Player” dildo I feel is an exception. As the majority of products I have looked into have been cheaply made, are toxic or both. “The Player” seems to hold its ground when tested, whereas, the “Firefly” dildo I would not consider safe for internal use. "The Player" Reviewed: States that it is made of 100% medical grade silicone. This is either false advertising or perhaps there is a miscommunication between the manufacturer in China and the distributor in the USA. Silicone dildos are NOT made out of medical grade silicone, they are usually made out of food grade silicone which is of a high quality and perfectly safe for internal use. As this industry is not regulated it is up to the consumer to understand this. The “Firefly” Reviewed: The “Firefly” was my first purchase from Romantix and the start of my curiosity about the reliability of Romanitx products. As such, I have used both “The Player” and the “Firefly”. The ‘Firefly” made my insides burn and took almost a week to recover from. I am a perfectly healthy woman and although I have sensitive skin, allergic reactions to silicone are rare (I boiled both dildos, so it is unlikely to be a reaction from some cleaning agent). I chalk this reaction up to the “Firefly” most likely being made out of a silicone blend. (My one regret is I did not flame test this dildo before tossing it). Meaning it is not 100% silicone and may possibly contain harmful chemicals that might leach out of the product. Also, "The Player" although from China and mislabeled. Has passed the flame test with flying colors and has yet to make me burn the way the “Firefly” did.
