Dr. Joel Kaplan's prostate probe - probe discontinued by Cal Exotics - review by Hunter Rhodes

Dr. Joel Kaplan’s Prostate Probe is a good example of a sex toy that depends upon your own preferences as to whether you will find it pleasurable or uncomfortable. I should say upfront, then, that I don’t like rough anal stimulation; toy girth is not so much the issue here as to whether or not it glides smoothly. That said, I found Dr. Joel Kaplan’s Prostate Probe enjoyable, but not without its drawbacks; for my likes.

When I fist saw the Prostate Probe, I felt a little intimidated by the design, which reminded me of studded dog collars, but it is not as menacing as it may appear. The toy is made of a soft, flexible silicone and has four graduated nodes covered with little bumps—more about those later. By my measurements, the nodes’ diameters are 7/8”, 1”, 1⅛”, and 1¼”; to get the bottom node inside yourself you would need to take in 4½” of the toy’s length. I think the sizes would be acceptable for someone relatively new to exploring anal pleasure.

Here’s the deal on the bumps covering the nodes: it all has to do with if you like your anal stimulation smooth or a little rough. This is a silicone toy, so the bumps are soft. The bumps, however, made insertion just a little difficult, more-or-less “snagging” on my sphincter. While it did not hurt, I would have preferred that the nodes glide in. I typically ride or slide anal toys; in other words, I like to move the thing around. The Prostate Probe’s bumps made that uncomfortable for me, so I put it in and left it there. The toy’s large handle on the bottom enables you to twist it while it’s inside you, which I didn’t care for (again, I don’t like it rough). I found that pulling the toy out, either to increase stimulation or because I had finished, was a little uncomfortable, even though insertion was not. Covering the thing in a condom didn’t seem to change this much, if at all.

In the end—as it were—I did enjoy having Dr. Joel Kaplan’s Prostate Probe inside me while I jerked off. While I would prefer to have the bumps on the nodes go away, that may be just the thing that you need. As a flexible, quality material, reasonably priced anal toy, Dr. Joel Kaplan’s Prostate Probe is a good product that requires finding the right person (or anus) for the toy.

PS; Before using the toy, you may want to put a condom on it because although it cleans off easily with soap and water [editor’s note: or by boiling, or on the top shelf of the dishwasher with no detergent], little studs in a rectum can make for a dirtier experience than, say, a smooth dildo.
