Category: Comparisons
Compare the Small and Medium Qarl silicone toys from Strange Bedfellas. Find which size fits your experience level and preferences based on measurements and firmness.
Quick Answer
Choose the Small Qarl if you prefer a gentler, narrower toy ideal for beginners or warm-up. Pick the Medium Qarl if you have more experience and want fuller sensation with a wider shaft.
Size and Measurement Differences
The Small Qarl has a total length of 6.5 inches and a usable length of 5 inches, with a head diameter of 1.1 inches and a widest shaft diameter of 1.65 inches. The Medium Qarl is larger: 8 inches total, 6 inches usable, with a head diameter of 1.4 inches and a widest shaft diameter of 2 inches. These differences directly affect comfort and the type of sensation you'll experience.
If you are new to silicone toys or prefer a slimmer profile, the Small Qarl offers a more gradual introduction. For those who enjoy a fuller stretch, the Medium Qarl provides a noticeable step up in girth.
Firmness and Material Considerations
Both the Small and Medium Qarl are available in Soft (0030) silicone firmness. This softness allows for some squish and flexibility, which can make insertion easier and more comfortable, especially for beginners. However, a softer toy may be slightly more challenging to insert for those accustomed to firmer materials.
If you prefer a firmer feel, check the Strange Bedfellas silicone firmness page for other options, but note that the Qarl models described here are only offered in Soft.
Decision Rules for Choosing Your Qarl Size
- If you are a beginner or prefer gentler play: Choose the Small Qarl. Its 1.1-inch head and 1.65-inch shaft diameter offer a gradual introduction without overwhelming stretch.
- If you have experience and want a fuller stretch: Choose the Medium Qarl. With a 1.4-inch head and 2-inch shaft diameter, it provides a noticeable increase in girth and sensation.
- If usable length matters for your play style: The Small Qarl offers 5 inches usable, while the Medium offers 6 inches. If you need extra length for deeper play, the Medium is the better fit.
