This is my first packer after mr limpy. I wanted to write a quick review because i could not find too many info on this packer in particular. I also want to make a post comparing it in size with the mr limpy.
Product: The Thinker, color C2, no customization, no extra painting, cut. I bought the less realistic version (there are two on the site, i bought this one https://it.axolom.com/products/axolom-the-thinker-circumcised-ftm-stp-cut?_pos=1&_sid=e080779f7&_ss=r ), the rod and the harness and i paid a total of 115 USD = 102 ⬠(i don't remember if shipping is included in this price, but i paid 10⬠for shipping and no tariffs at arrival).
1. Shopping and packaging
š®š¹ Se a qualche italiano serve: il pacco arriva in Italia con Poste Italiane
I needed the package to be shipped to a pickup point so i contacted the Axolom assistance to help me understand who was the shipper and they were very helpful and patient. Also i asked some questions about what packer they would reccomend.
I ordered on the 29th of july and it got delivered on the 6th of august. The packaging is very discrete and it does not say that this is a trans or sex related object. On the outside of the package it says "silicone mold". It also comes with a little "no-lint" bag which is very useful but also ripped about a month after i got it.
2. Washing
I did not boil it because the website says not to do so. I just wash it with regular soap everyday; it does not get sticky after, i just dry it with a paper towel on the outside and then roll up a little bit of paper and dry the inside as best as i can. For the harness i mostly hand wash it. I put it in the washing machine just one time and it seems fine. It dried pretty fast too. The only issue i have had for the harness is a little bit of odor lingering on even after i just washed. I don't know if it is a detergent thing or a material thing (it's mostly synthetic for my understanding).
3. Packing
The packer is 14cm long with the cup, and 12cm if we are just counting the shaft. I was a little bit worried about it looking to big for me but it looks pretty natural. For reference i am 5'3" (163cm) for about 55-57 kg.
I also got the harness as XXS following the table on the website and it fits perfectly. I got the cream one.
It is soft which means it's very easy to pack. I liked it because compared to other it did look less pointed down then other models. I pack laterally, so that was important for me. Tho i would reccomend getting the harness also; i tried to pack it without the harness and for me it was absolutely impossible. I find that tight underwear works the best (briefs or boxer briefs), while bermuda shorts are not keeping it in place. The only way i can work it out with bermuda is to pack sideways and stick the head under the harness. It's ok for a short time but generally not that comfortable.
I pack with it extensively; at home, at uni, at the gym and it's pretty comfortable.
4 - STP function
This is my first and only experience with an STP, and overall i wouldn't say that it was too bad. The cup is pretty big, so i think it can accomodate different anatomies easily. So i was having some issues with backflow, and i think it is because the back part of the cup does not adhere to the body perfectly.
So the solution i've found was to just use my right hand to press on that area; you can do it from the front or from the back, but so far it's working every time.
Other things i do:
1- make sure to position the cup as far back as possible, so that the end basically touches you butt
2- donāt pee to fast, try to control the flow to be slow so that the cup does not overflow
3- donāt move the shaft too much, just use your other hand to gently support it so that pee doesnāt go on your pants. And when you are done pull it downwards so that all the liquid flows out
I would not reccomand this packer if you want to use urinals. But since itās one of the cheapest models i think itās great to learn.
5 - Insertable rod
So i basically found zero information about the use of this packer with the rod. The rod inserts super easily even with no lube.
NSFW part
||It is definitely usable for masturbation or to recieve it from a partner, but needs a bit of practice in the movement. I am pre T, and it did work for me a few times.
I have also used it once for penetration (anal) and we did not have issues with inserting (i thought that the tip would be too soft) but mostly with keeping it inside, expecially in certain positions. It is a bit too short to work in certain positions. Iāll have to try it further, but it is definitely NOT impossible. Also i wasnāt really feeling much at all, but that might just be user error since i am not very experienced with PIA at all.
On the bright side, i tried to use the harness with anotger strap on dick i had (from a random sex toy store) and it fit perfectly and i could use it just fine. Which is great because i really like this harness. ||
The last thing I want to say is that I am a little bit disappointed by the fact that after just a few days of use it got a little tear in the cup :c. I donāt think it already came like this because in the picture (that i took like the day it arrived or the day after) it was fine.
TLDR: overall I rate it positively. Itās cheap and itās comfortable and itās pretty good to learn to STP. The size is perfect to me. Could probably be better in the sex department but, again, i think itās good given the price.
