You don't know what you don't know . The Titan is not uncomfortable, at least for me . My priorities have changed since living with an implant for the last 15 months.

Maybe not for you, but some people have found it uncomfortable. I have only seen one person write that the AMS was uncomfortable (due to the pump size), but I have seen at least a half dozen people write that they find the Coloplast uncomfortable

Yeah .... I get it . This is not an argument or debate . It's just sharing information for the community and future bionic brothers , so they can make the best decision for themselves.

if we create a poll, are people willing to share if their failed device was AMS or titan?

I would love to see the results of such a poll. Initially, I was planning to go with a Titan, but I've now switched to AMS. I'm just waiting for my doctor to confirm the availability of the Tenacio pump, as I won't proceed with the implant until the new pump is available in Atlanta.

If I had a Do-Over I would do a LOT more research on implants. Let my surgeon do all the selections, I didn't know there were more options. Basically went in the OR blind as to what I committed myself to. I had not found Frank Talk. I did very little searching for info about implants or ED prior. I guess since it was my first surgery as an adult that had me more nervous than getting my penis sliced open. Tried to watch one video of the implant surgery, couldn't handle it.
And then again I wonder if NOT knowing all of the negatives that are possible was a good thing. Too many guys seem to overthink this decision after reading so many posts about broken or defective devices.
I love my implant. I would tell any guy that is an option available if needed. IF the time comes that I need a revision you can bet damn sure I'm going to know every possible option and device.
