Terms describe categories, not exact performance. There are major differences among models in every category.
Material and care terms
Nonporous: describes a surface that does not readily absorb liquid; exact construction still matters. TPE and TPR: families of flexible thermoplastic materials. ABS: a rigid plastic commonly used in product housings. Water-resistant: a broad label that requires the actual manufacturer specification.
Do not assume “water-resistant” means submersible. Check instructions before cleaning any powered product.
Shopping and specification terms
Insertable length: a measurement that may exclude the base or handle. Circumference: the distance around a shape. Rechargeable: contains a battery intended for recharging. SKU: an item identifier used to distinguish models or variants.
If the supplier description omits a critical specification, avoid treating a glossary definition as evidence that the product has that feature.
Common questions
What does “body safe” mean on a listing?
It is a marketing phrase unless supported by specific materials and intended-use information.
What does “water-resistant” guarantee?
Not a universal level of protection. Look for the maker’s exact rating and instructions.
