I bought it and I like it. It's my first real toy of this type. I had used my fingers and then a metal wine stopper that had a wide flat top, some silicone ridges and a small flat tip (I bought it for this and it will never been used for anything else). I discovered I liked the ridges and this toy was on sale so I bought it. The ridges are soft and more shallow than I thought from the pic. The ridges toward the front feel great. I could do without the ridges on the larger part, but after playing with the smaller part for a little while it isn't a problem. Once it's in you can feel the ridges on the inside of your vag, so maybe that's the reason for the ridges on the larger part. I think it would feel interesting to have sex with it in, but I'm not sure if it's too big. I haven't had the guts to ask my husband for that either (We've never done any sort of anal). Also the ball is just small enough that I can walk around with it in and you can't see it through my panties. Not sure if that would be important to anyone else, but it is useful if I want to go into the bathroom to take it out and wash it right away.
