Bathmate Edge Pro Review – My Sex Toy Guide

The Bathmate Edge Pro is a versatile penis toy with a new take on stimulation: rotation around the tip. My partner’s penis has delighted in testing toys of all kinds, but this is the first one with rotation. In addition to the novelty, it has vibration and a heating element. How does it compare to the competition? Let’s find out together as my partner lends his willing and able erection to take the Bathmate Edge Pro to the limit.

Key Takeaways

After testing, the biggest thing we noticed is the gap between how the Edge Pro is marketed and how it works. The box talks about how it’s made for results, stamina, and training, but I saw nothing about this toy that made it different from other penis pleasure products. Most of the stamina-training devices we’ve reviewed have an app so you can measure the time it takes you to reach orgasm, but this was a masturbation cup with no real help for lasting longer in bed that we could find.

That being said, the stimulations were strong, even on my fingers. My partner loved every second of it, and it was one of the few non-stroking toys that he was able to climax with immediately. With other devices, it took him a while to get accustomed to the new style of pleasure. But this one was enjoyable right off the bat (with plenty of lube).

Who Should Try It? If you don’t require stroking but adore having the tip of your penis stimulated, you’re going to fall in love. It’s also perfect for anyone who wants a reasonably priced masturbator that doesn’t require grip strength or much maintenance.

Who Can Skip It? If the tip of your penis is extra sensitive, you have an unusually large erection, or you can’t get off without stroking, skip this purchase. The Edge Pro also isn’t particularly helpful for learning to edge, boost stamina, or last longer, unless you do the work on your own.

You Can Buy It on the official Bathmate website for $99.99.

What Is the Bathmate Edge Pro?

Bathmate is a brand that specializes in penis pumps, but their Edge Pro offers something different: masturbation with a focus on stamina. After thorough testing, my partner described it as a heating, vibrating sleeve with rotation around the tip, making it unique among other products. It is marketed as something waterproof that can help you improve your stamina, but it is splash-proof and best used as a masturbator rather than a sexual health device.

First Impressions and Features

Unboxing

The unboxing experience is adequate. It comes in a thin, cardboard box with a charging cord and instruction manual, but no storage bag or lubricant. You’ll need to pick those up in advance.

Features

The Bathmate Edge Pro has edgy features, including:

• Three stimulations to choose from
• Three vibration speeds, seven rotation speeds, plus heating
• Splash-proof

Specifications

The Bathmate Edge Pro specifications at a glance:

• Material: Body-safe silicone and ABS plastic
• Size: Works for erections up to 6.6” girth
• Color: Black and white
• Mechanism: Vibration, heat, and rotation
• Weight: 14.75 oz

How Do I Use the Bathmate Edge Pro?

Using the Bathmate Edge Pro begins with unboxing and then charging. The light on the top button will indicate when the magnetic charging cable is aligned properly for charging.

Once charged, wash by rinsing the sleeve with water and antibacterial soap or sex toy cleaner, then drying it with a lint-free cloth. Never submerge it or use it in the bath. Grab some water-based lubricant while you’re at it—the intense stimulations like rotation make lubricant use mandatory.

The Edge Pro has a four-button interface. The top button turns on the heating element, and it’s also where you’ll find the charging light. Below the rotation button is the vibration button, and at the very bottom is the power button. Each button is labeled with an intuitive icon so you won’t forget which stimulation belongs to which button. Further, you can control the stimulations separately, giving you the ability to customize each masturbation experience. When you’ve finished, wash the Edge Pro carefully and store it in a cloth bag away from the elements.

My Personal Experience

After testing, the biggest thing we noticed is the gap between how the Edge Pro is marketed and how it works. The box talks about how it’s made for results, stamina, and training, but I saw nothing about this toy that made it different from other penis pleasure products. Most of the stamina-training devices we’ve reviewed have an app so you can measure the time it takes you to reach orgasm, but this was a masturbation cup with no real help for lasting longer in bed that we could find.

The stimulations were strong, even on my fingers, except for the heat. I can only imagine what they felt like on an erection! My partner loved every second of it, and it was one of the few non-stroking toys that he was able to climax with immediately. With other devices, it took him a while to get accustomed to the new style of pleasure. But this one was enjoyable right off the bat—with plenty of lube.

He wished that the rotation were gentler. Inside, it felt like a hard piece of plastic wrapped in softer silicone, but the exterior did little to blunt the force of the rotation. If you have a sensitive head, this may be too overwhelming or painful. But my partner is someone who wishes sex toys paid attention to the head of the penis, so he was a big fan.

My partner was shocked at the strength of sensations this heating, vibrating, rotating stroker provided, and then he was double-shocked when I told him the price. This has the strongest vibes he’s ever felt from a stroker. That’s a big achievement.

Packaging

The packaging is modern, but what’s included is minimal: just the stroker, a charging cord, and a user manual. More concerning is that under the Bathmate logo on the box, it says “just add water” in all caps. Yet the device inside is not waterproof, which is a puzzling marketing decision.

Design

The Edge Pro’s design makes it perfect for anyone who doesn’t need up-and-down thrusting to climax but can enjoy vibration, heat, and rotation instead.

My partner noted during testing that this is a stiffer masturbator, and the materials and design make for a firm experience. It wasn’t uncomfortable, but if you crave a squishy cup, this is the wrong choice. And though you can press your erection into it, it doesn’t stroke very easily.

Material

The materials used are IPX5 rated, which means they are not fully waterproof. The Bathmate Edge Pro is made from stiff silicone and ABS plastic. The inside is textured with smooth, round bumps for extra stimulation during use. This device would likely be okay in the shower, but never submerged. Use caution when cleaning the Bathmate Edge Pro. It’s okay to splash it, but don’t hold it underwater or spray it directly with high-powered water.

Maybe I’m an idiot, but this came as a surprise from a device called the Bathmate Edge Pro. Eager beavers may start using it right away without realizing it’s not waterproof and cannot, in fact, be your bath-mate. It feels like a misnomer.

Stimulations

My partner reported that these were some of the strongest vibrations he’s felt from a stroker. He was impressed. He loved the rotations too, but was disappointed that the stimulation was reserved for the uppermost part of the penis. The rotation stimulation is extremely potent. There is a hard material swirling around covered in a soft silicone wrapper, but if you don’t use lube, it might feel like your penis got caught in the ceiling fan, more than a pleasurable experience that leads to orgasm. Use more lube than you think you need and reapply it often.

The heat wasn’t extremely palpable. Most of the time during use, he had to look at the button to tell whether the heat was on or off, so it didn’t feel much hotter than skin temperature. The heating element takes several minutes to warm up, so turn it on before you plan to use that function. The heat doesn’t have different levels—you turn it on or leave it off. The instructions say that it heats up to 107 degrees Fahrenheit, well above body temperature, but it felt milder than that.

Sound Level

When I tested the sound level, the decibels ranged from 47 to 67, with nothing in it—with a finger or erection inside, it ranged roughly from 47 to 55. The stimulations were only moderately noisy except for the rotation, which was downright loud. When my partner and I played together with my vibrating wand going, the rotation was still loud enough to distract us.

Build Quality and Dimensions

This is a medium-sized stroker, and it should fit small- to medium-sized erections the best. Larger erections will get more sensation from the rotation, which only happens at the head of the penis. Smaller erections may reach far enough inside to feel that sensation.

Ease of Use

The Bathmate Edge Pro is easy to use. Want proof? My partner didn’t even pause to read the manual before ripping into this thing, and he had no trouble navigating the settings. The buttons are designed so that you can tell which one triggers which feature—you simply turn the device on or off first. Then press each button to activate the stimulation or long-press it to turn it off.

The part that makes this not so easy to use is that it is not waterproof—merely splash-proof, and I imagine this will pose a problem for people who don’t read the instructions carefully and aren’t familiar with the term “waterproof IPX5.” Thanks to the design, there are a lot of nooks and crannies to clean, so cleaning will take more care than usual.

Versatility

The Edge Pro gets average points for versatility. It’s somewhat versatile because you can choose from several sensations to combine or use separately. But it’s also not very versatile because extra-girthy erections won’t be able to use this. People with ED may be able to use it if they are able to get hard enough to insert their erection into the device’s mouth. It can’t be used in the bathtub, either.

Warranty and Support

Well, this is a first: warranties are available for purchase at the Bathmate website. The most expensive is the lifetime warranty, which costs $100. However, the instruction manual said that the Edge Pro is covered by a one-year warranty, so with any luck, you won’t need to purchase anything additional.

Minor Issues I Found During Testing

This male pleasure device is an excellent idea with moderate execution. The few problems we ran into may not ruin your experience—they didn’t for my partner—but they’re worth noting. This is one of the loudest toys my partner has ever used, the heat was hard to notice even after waiting the recommended time, and it’s not waterproof.

Review Summary

My partner was pleasantly surprised by how much fun the rotation turned out to be, especially at this price point. $100 in this economy is downright crazy. The Edge Pro offers something so unique and is the perfect choice for anyone who doesn’t need the stroking sensation to climax. This will be life-changing for anyone who wants something to titillate the tip of their penis and doesn’t mind extreme sensation, but it’s not necessarily geared toward stamina training.

Pros

• Reasonably priced
• Heat, vibrations, and rotation stimulations
• Vigorous, innovative, and unique sensations
• Sturdy

Cons

• Splash-proof but not waterproof
• Noisy
• The heat is very light—almost undetectable

Alternatives to the Bathmate Edge Pro

LELO F2S

The LELO F2S is a tech-driven stroker that works well for people who need stroking sensations. There’s a hole at the end that makes this possible, but that also means you’ll miss the sensations at the tip of your penis. The F2S is billed as a stamina trainer and comes with an app to track your duration and progress, making it a better choice for those who want to build endurance. The F2S is $209, more expensive than the Edge Pro, and has far less intense stimulations.

Arcwave Ion 2

Arcwave Ion 2 is a suction-based stroker that targets the frenulum, with a flexible design that lets you grip as tight or as loose as you like. The Ion 2 is even louder than the Edge Pro, but it comes with a sleek storage bag. The Ion 2 costs around $169 and is the right choice for someone who wants suction and doesn’t mind paying extra for it.
