My verdict
Pushing yourself into the ‘main’ side of this Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE) jerk sleeve, you enter a soft ribbed texture. The Apollo Stroker is not meant to replicate anything real…but who cares? Yes, I needed a goodly amount of lube to really fit into and make this masturbator work at its best, but again, almost all sleeves of this type need lube to be used. It’s just that this CalExotics one requires lots of it. What’s interesting with the Apollo Stroker is that it is reversible, so you can enjoy two different sensations either rubbing against the side of the thing or fucking its hole. This inside-out functionality also means the cum sleeve is easy to clean. Soap and water or a good toy cleaner and water do the trick…then let dry. Priced perfectly, squishy yet sturdy, delivering a good extra oomph for your hand, CalExotics Novelties has a winner here.
Pros
Closed end gives you great suction.
Reversable, as much to fuck, as to clean.
Ribbed sides give you more than just the tight hole to have fun with.
Priced right.
Cons
Need lots of lube.
Hard to invert if you are in a hurry.
Need to push all the air out of the sleeve to really get good suction.
About the product

A double-sided, reversible for use and cleaning, ribbed jerk-off sleeve, this is a squishy male fun toy that is easy to hold and get into. Certainly, requiring a good amount of lube, but providing solid suction from its closed end, you can take to this masturbatory toy in plenty of ways, inside and out, reversed or not.

CalExotics Novelties knows what they are doing with the toys they produce, and this stroker surely gives the user a few sweet extras to make play even more interesting.

Design

Although you pretty much get what you expect when looking at this Apollo Strokerthe extra added bonus is that it is reversible. The hole is tight, the suction solid, no matter if you take to it the regular way or reverses, with the ridges on its side nice for extra rubbing before or after you engage yourself in the hole.

CalExotics Novelties has designed a smart little jerk-off sleeve with all these extras. 

Experience

Pushing yourself into the ‘main’ side of this jerk off

sleeve, you enter ribbed heaven. I loved how this felt.

Yes, I needed lots of lube, but I have been here before with this masturbatory

sleeves, they almost all need lube to be used. It’s just that this CalExotics

one, needs lots of it.

If you are so inclined (and I was being the horn dog I am) you can get a good rubbing going just with the side of this thing...reversed or not; the ribs do your dick just right.

But really, it is all about the hole (again reversed or not) and the hole caught me good and tight, after squishing out the extra air out the tunnel.

Easy cleanup, seeing as the thing is indeed reversable and priced nice, the Greek God Apollo surely looks down on your cock with this masturbatory toy named after him.

Quality

CalExotics Novelties is a name the sex toy world has come to

trust; it was no surprise then that this Apollo Stroker was made soft yet

sturdy, that you get your money worth with this dual-sided stroker and that in

the end, it was as easy to use as it was to clean. This is a high-quality male

toy here, inside and out (and you do get inside and out with this thing for

sure).

Price

Good price for what you get here. You can find strokers that

are more expensive, that surely are not this well made, nor give you a dual experience.

And simpler sleeves, surely cheaper, that really won’t give you the bang (and I

do mean bang!) for your buck as much as the Apollo.

Open you wallet (slightly),

then get ready for fun.

Performance

Surprised by the dual possibilities (just reverse the Apollo)

this stroker performed beyond my dreams…even though I knew I was getting two for the price of one here.

This is a sturdy yet soft little jerker, it’s surely going to last a long time

(I look forward to repeated returns) and it’s easy to clean as well, no matter

what side you use.

Performed well beyond me just beating my meat, which was indeed very sweet.

Packaging

Theres not much to the box or packaging the CalExotics Novelties Apollo Stroker comes in...save for a few pictures of the male sex toy on its front. It is packaged in a hypoallergenic bag, easily ripped open.

Overall, this reversable jerk-off sleeve is sitting there ready for you to lube it and have your fun.

Materials and care

Made of that all too common, body-safe Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE), this Apollo stroker is sturdy yet squishy, soft yet suction-y, ribbed outside and nubby in, easily reversable for varied fun and easy cleaning and drying.

  • Lovehoney Ignite Review

    Boasting 20 functions, Lovehoney’s Ignite 20 Ribbed Male Vibrator might just be the simple and small ticket-to-wonderful orgasmic ride you have been looking for. Thrumming with three vibration speeds and seventeen different patterns, this slightly lined little beauty with its textured ribs is part of Lovehoney’s beginner-friendly male masturbator range, designed to as much enhance and maybe even prolong a man's sexual responses. You can even squeeze this mini masturbator for extra zing. Size-friendly for any guy with its 3-inch split side, this is also a great cum extractor to travel with. For this purpose, specifically, the Ignite includes a travel lock and storage bag, is completely waterproof for easy cleaning, and like the best of modern motorized sex toys, is USB rechargeable. And stays so for over two hours. This head-teaser is the thing for solo play, as much when you want to get off fast as train yourself to ride stimulation over a long time. It could be used as much by your partner for edging fun games....watch out! Surely, you’ll alert anyone who is near when you use the Ignite—Lovehoney did not make this thing run quiet—but it really is a solid little male orgasm producer, well worth the price, made perfectly to deliver what it promises.

  • TENGA ARTE DRAPE

    One of the two mini masturbators in the Tenga Arte line, their DRAPE male jerker offers a rash of wonderful sensations the minute you stick yourself up and in it (lube recommended). Guys really packing might find this sleeve a little too small, but no matter your tool, you could pretty much get the best of you up this cap-like sleeve and enjoy the extra tug and tickle this male sex toy gives you with every squeeze. What the DRAPE has particularly is delicate folds and crevices, set on a tight base structure. That tighter base adds just the right amount of balanced pressure. This makes the DRAPE as easy to work as hold in one hand. Either for solo explorations of quick tugging comes or for long-lasting dick training, this malleable little masturbatory sleeve delivers. You're gonna need lube though. And the sleeve can even be turned inside out for easier cleaning and drying. And speaking of drying, TENGA has the sleeve set inside its domed covering on what doubles as a holder as a drying stand.

  • TENGA ARTE WEAVE

    One of the mini masturbators in the Tenga Arte line, the company’s WEAVE male jerker offer is fluffy and stretchy, perfect for encasing one’s erection and delivering all the extra stimulation for getting the job done. A thick cap-of-sleeve (bigger guys are only going to get so much of themselves into this thing) the chunky thick texture of the Weave offers whatever you want by fitting comfortably around your dick and offering as tight or as loose a tug as you manage with how tightly you squeeze. The Weave offers a more luxurious knitted pattern sensation than the other TENGA ARTE toys. It features a clear outer tube and inside sensation nubs rendered in what the company calls dual overlapping layers of "elastomer." Easy to clean by turning the Weave inside out and washing it, TENGA packages the thing with a unique and completely hygienic drying stand. If one is looking to add just that extra little bit of magic to one's solo tickling and doesn't like motorized vibes or big bad Fleshlights, this little TENGA wonder is for you.

    Feel Mouth Stroker by Kiroo - Sweet and Simple

    A nice oral inspired manual masturbator. It’s very fun, simple and easy to clean making it a toy I intend to keep in rotation for a while. It’s meant to emulate a blowjob but honestly I wouldn’t say it’s very realistic feeling. That isn’t to say the sleeve isn’t stimulating and a blast to play with but maybe there’s more realism with the recommended attachments like the Keon or Powerblow (not reviewed in this review).

    The Maia Piper is offers a flow of unlimited possibilities!

    The Maia Piper Vibrating Self-Heating suction Silicone Vibrator is a riot. The suction and vibration create an intense sensation that is pleasurable that sort of mimics a blowjob, which is even more convincing when used with lots of lube and the heating function. The soft inner texture included in the internal canal shape really helps it generate a decent level of suction against your member- even at my average size of 4.7 inches length and above-average girth, I had some room and comfortably fit in the sleeve. The independently controllable 15 levels of vibration X 3 Heat Levels X 5 Suction levels keep things fresh and interesting, they offer pulsating and fluctuating patterns that feel good. The independent control offers you the freedom to explore and discover what you like. With the right setting(s), you can get off easily and repeatedly. The Maia Piper is well built, solid and not too heavy at 1.1 LBs with an ergonomic shape. It has soft silicone internals and it's waterproof/submergable, making it suitable for shower use. It is definitely a cut above other similar vibration sleeve strokers. Maia Piper does get fairly loud when you turn on the vibration. The suction can make slurping and gurgling noises if you don't hold it close to you pelvic bone or wait long enough to generate a vacuum on your cock. Not a problem if you have the fan on, or using it in the shower or simply live alone. Cleaning does require a little bit more attention to clean because you have to run the sleeve under a faucet with the suction activated to rinse out lube or cum from the air-recirculation holes. It takes about 1-2 minutes to ensure it's completely clean. The toy is rather big measuring at 11.5” long, 3.2” thick x 4.5” wide, so you have to sit, stand or lie down when using it and constantly have a hand to prop it on your junk. If you don't mind a bit of extra cleaning and a tad bit of noise, the Maia Piper offers a lot of pleasurable possibilities-go for it!

    Boronia Cock Ring

    Great for couples, the only negative is the button extrudes to the point where when in use the vibrating pattern changes.

    Fun Factory Manta: An Interesting Experience

    The Fun Factory Manta is a good toy but it does take some getting used to when using it with sex. The toy is not your regular stroker, but is marketed as a vibrating penis stroker with the added benefits of being used to turn your penis into a vibrator for sex as well as a toy that can be used with a BJ. I do have to say that it does blend these things together very well. You cannot compare it to a stroker that covers your shaft from top to bottom. The Manta is more than that and is actually more a couples toy than a toy for solo but it can certainly be used for such. I would 100% recommend it for use with mutual masturbation though and works wonders on the tip. I enjoy the Manta and it is amazing for edging and is a wonderful addition to any sort of soft BDSM play. This stroker has 6 speeds and 6 vibration variations which are super powerful! When using it during sex, it didn't do much for her and was a bit awkward to position comfortably - that being said, it may just take some practice. All that being said, the vibrations are a different sensation and they may take some getting used to or just straight up may not work for some.

    The FapCap is supposed to be that little upgrade to your Fleshlight experience, bro. It boosts the suction and feel of your toy, making things way more intense. It’s this small, not too bulky, hockey puck-looking thing that screws onto the end of your Fleshlight, and it lets you get into and interact with the supported video content.

    Kiiroo Feel Pocket Stroker

    It's definitely a "pocket" toy, it's quite compact, but also quite tight so not ideal for larger people. Unfortunately it seems to have some quality control issues also that make it difficult to recommend.

    Lovense Max 2: A Fun Time for 2

    The Lovense Max 2 puts a spin on strokers. This toy contracts around your dick with air to recreate the pulsating walls of an actual vagina/mouth. This creates a tight feeling that can get pretty intense sometimes. The toy also vibrates, which can feel incredible if you're looking for that feeling. The toy is pretty simple to control, but you can take it to the next level by letting a partner control it for you via the Lovense app. Some people might not like the tightest settings of this toy, and people looking for an "automatic" stroking experience should look elsewhere.

    FapCap: To Fap or Not to Fap

    Y’all, the FapCap's a mighty fine piece of gear. It don’t make a fuss and sure lets you tighten things up or loosen them just the way you like. Makes a man feel like he's got more control over his ride, and when it’s all said and done, it don’t take up much room or make too much noise. Just a simple, quiet companion that gets the job done right.
