Hey there, hope you’re all doing well. I’ve been an aneros fan for years, though I’ve yet to break through to the super O side of things
I’ve encountered a bit of an issue and I could use some help.
I’ve somehow managed to break two Progasms. One, admittedly, was from dropping it, and the one with the front ptab broken occurred during a session. Apparently I can’t attach pics? See link in comments
Can anyone think of anything to help reduce the pressure on the ptabs? Should I just get a new one?
Thanks!

Same thing happened to my Progasm last week, the p-tan broke while it was inserted. Like are my muscles really strong enough to break that plastic?!
After use, how are you cleaning them–like using boiling water or putting in dishwasher or using anything other than a toy cleaner or soap & water? Do you see any microfractures anywhere on the toys or cracks or chips broken off?
I would, for sure, send the pictures to Aneros and ask them what to do…it’s kinda dangerous that they are breaking, and…I really can’t see using them breaking them that way…
I seen people break the back tab to make more better. Try and keep that one
Hi there, for the Progasm that broke during a session, please contact us through the website. It should be covered by our lifetime warranty. Thanks!
While I was waiting for my Progasm Ice to be delivered a few years ago, I came across a post about the same thing happening them. The post was talking about how (even though it looks cool, and each model unique) the manufacturing process leaves a bubble inside the toy, visible with the Progasm Ice models, the see through glass-like ones.
A small bubble had set in the arm of the P-tab and I was afraid mine would arrive like that too. Sure enough when I first opened it, there was a nice cool looking bubble in the main body, but also one in the arm of the P-tab. My heart dropped, especially because I live outside of the US so it’s not easily sent back. After a few years I’ve noticed a small crack where that weakness is. Right on the bubble. Whatever way they’re being molded this should be changed as its a pretty serious defect.
I love my other models but the small crack in the Progasm keeps me from fully relaxing while using it, resulting in shorter, less fulfilling sessions.
As I said though also, It has lasted years even with the small crack. Maybe yours just had a very bad bubble in manufacturing
Have you tried applying a tiny amount of lube on the p-tab so it can travel a bit? You can also moisturize the area after a shower, and before play, so it has some room to move. If it’s just digging into the skin, something has to give.
A rubber bulb from an eye dropper over top the P tab… no more soreness… although a little soreness sometimes feels good after an amazing Session.. it’s a nice reminder… good luck
Reading these posts, I checked my Progasm Ice. Both arms have some tiny, hairline cracks, visible only when light reflects in them. I will reinforce it with some adhesive, or a layer of thin epoxy resin, to penetrate them, before they propagate and break off.
