I'm thinking about buying the Buddy 2 in 1 Prosthetic 3.5" STP, I was wondering if anyone's tried it
I ordered a Model D sports from ftmessentials and changed my mind and got a refund (they hadn't shipped yet) because I didn't think it'd pack well.
Does the Freetom Buddy one pack well? It's a lot of money to spend and STPs tend not to be returnable... I don't want something that i can't actually use out of the house
I'm also considering the cheaper Number One, though I don't like that it doesn't seem to have balls lol. Again packing is a priority...

The Buddy is very nice looking and my favorite in the looks department. Packing wasn't bad with it either, it just bulged out a little more than what I expected because It didn't sit very well on me. As an STP it never worked for me. The hole was way too small and the pee didn't flow out fast enough. I kept getting a lot of back flow and had many accidents.
You had to constantly make sure you dump it out because of the pee left behind. I never got the hang of it and gave up on it. Unfortunately mine went missing when I moved ;(. Everything is trial and error, so the buddy might work for you it might not.
Sport model was too small for me and I couldn't pack with it. It didn't work as an STP for me either, was also super stiff and uncomfortable.

Hmm maybe the Buddy's too much of a risk for the price...
I wish i had the money to just get an EZP, i've heard most good things about those. At the moment I'm considering the Number One, tho it's not very realistic

The EZP is the only one I use. It works perfect for me and I can use it confidently at urinals. I had maybe a few minor accidents with it when I first started using it but after a week or so i got the hang of it. I went ahead and got the color matching with it as well. Sadly the color isn't lasting very long on it but it still passes well. The other nice thing is the inside has this shiny coat inside which I assume repels the pee and keeps any odor away. My only gripe with it is you have to wear tight underwear to keep it in place and you always have to pack it upwards. I tried it with a harness but it just kept poking straight out. I can pee thru a fly or just pull it over the waist band of my underwear.
also..I went to a very busy concert venue recently and used the urinal around a bunch of other guys. Nobody looked or said anything to me.

I think the EZP's probably the best choice... I'm going to have to save up for it I suppose. Thanks for your advice!

you could also look into EC Prosthetics. I haven't tried any of their products but they seem relatively cheap and might work out.

They look a bit rough but I'll keep them in mind! I do like the cast-from-life sort of look that those EC ones have, and freetoms have...
