Not as radiant as it looks...
This item really was not worth the time, money, or effort. A toy should give you pleasure, not frustration. It should be both beautiful and functional, and in this case beauty is just not enough.Published: May 29, 2009
Pros:
It's gorgeous to look at.
Cons:
It's poorly made, silicone and substance would help.
The Doc Johnson manufactured Anal Tool is a soft, glamorous, gold sil-a-gel creation. That means it’s not entirely silicone, but not entirely latex or rubber either. It has a fresh shower curtain smell as well, which is a sign it is not silicone. Non silicone or sil-a-gel toys, are more inexpensively made and, are much more porous and likely to harbor bacteria within their small pores which can grow larger over time.
The Anal Tool is part of the Radiant Gems Collection, and it is radiant. I bought it at Suzies', it was under 15 bucks. So how could I lose? First it is harness compatible which is an unlikely use, because it is so soft and flexible that you could not drive it into any body cavity. It’s far too soft and bendy. It's too slender to be impressive and too soft to be effective.
Because it contains some silicone, a water based lube must be used. It is also hard to sterilize a toy that is not pure silicone. It may melt in a pot or dishwasher. Condoms do not fit well on this toy because it is quite slender. It's tricky to use because it practically has to be stuffed into the anus, rather than inserted. That is not the sexiest way to please your partner.
Once inserted it does not create a feeling of "fullness". It would not stimulate a p-spot or a g-spot, and it did not stimulate anything in me. Sure it is beautiful to look at. The design is reminiscent of the top of a Buddhist temple. However it does not even have the weight to make a book end, let alone an anal toy, and really can not be categorized as a butt plug. It sure does look pretty sitting on a shelf or in a drawer somewhere...

Experience
After a few tries, I gave up...
Follow-up commentary

I still have to "stuff it in" because it is soooo soft. It's like a gummy worm, you know that candy? It's a nice alternative to anal beads.

Thank you for viewing Anal tool – anal probe review page!



Really good first review.
You might want to mention the length and girth in your next one, though. Even though they're in the "properties' area it's nice to reiterate the information.
Sucks that it was so useless since it really is pretty
Hmmm interesting...I have this toy and like it much better.
Why does it have to be stuffed rather than inserted? Because it's not very firm? I have a sil-a-gel toy and I found I was irritated by the material. Mine was also scented, was yours? Also, what's Suzies'?
Mine was "new vinyl seat " scented. It is not stiff at all, its like a piece of thick noodle. Its like trying to insert manicotti or something quite pasta like...... I wasn't irritated by the material, it was actually a very mediocre experience. Suzie's is the name of an adult toy store on Oahu (and boy, they are a handful at best in the entire state!!!)
Informative review, too bad the toy didn't work out so well..
Thanks for the review.
