useful review
I bought the Smart Balls because I was seeking a way to strengthen those muscles “down there” to create a more enjoyable sexual experience for both my partner and I. Mine are of the raspberry-pistachio variety, which gives this object a very appealing, attractive look. One thing that struck me was the amount of options that the website gives you as far as color is concerned – there is a color scheme available for every type of female. When removed from the package, the Smart Balls are light, scentless, pretty, and flexible in the middle just as they should be. Just as the package states, the Smart Balls are completely Elastomed for easier cleaning and safety. The Elastomed pull-string is one of the best assets on this toy as it will never get stained, discolored, or any other hygienic nightmare. The balls are a good size – small enough to conceal easily, but large enough to have the weight to work the vaginal muscles. Overall, this product is very well-designed and takes into account hygienic, comfort and pleasure concerns.

Naturally, it was easier to insert the first ball than it was to insert the second. Luckily there is some flexible material separating the two so that any woman can maneuver the balls as necessary for her desired angle. I inserted the product without lubrication, but I recommend using a dollop of your own preferred lubrication, or the lubrication provided in the packaging. Once inside of me, the fit was very snug and surprisingly comfortable. I thought that because of the width of the balls I would surely notice them a substantial amount when going about my daily business, but I hardly noticed them at all. Sitting, standing, walking, climbing stairs, jumping and laying down were all comfortable actions. I didn’t experience any soreness or any feeling that became too overwhelming for me to leave them inside of me. After inserting them, I pulled at the removal string to ensure that the balls would indeed slide right out – they did! I put them back in, comforted by the fact that they were very manageable, not disruptive of my routine, and could be removed worry-free later on.

The great thing about the Smart Balls is the fact that they provide slight vibrations whenever you move. These jiggling vibrations are noiseless. The sensation is not a very strong one, but it’s a nice surprise when walking briskly or hopping a bit. The more you move around, the more you will notice the vibrations. They won’t vibrate when lying motionless - you do have to make some effort at movement. I was a bit disappointed in the sensation the balls provided because I was hoping for a more noticeable feeling. It’s no fun if you can’t be at least a little bit aware of the toy’s presence inside of you, right? That’s one of the only improvements I could think of for the toy. Regardless, the vibrating or jiggling sensation was comfortable even though it was more pleasant than pleasurable for me. I can’t complain about a pleasant sensation though! I think that the Smart Balls are a great option for women who would like to where them for prolonged periods of time, during exercise, or any other activity. They are subtle enough to be completely stress-free, and pleasant enough that you feel rewarded for using them.

Smart Balls were also a breeze to clean thanks to the fully Elastomed design. This product was easy for me to clean using warm water and soap. There are little divots where the accent color is located, but they were not hard to cleanse in comparison to the rest of the toy. The pull-string rinsed right off, too. I feel very safe using this toy; you won’t have to worry about it getting ‘germy’ because it is very simple to sanitize. This toy is very well-made and worth every penny. It’s a small but incredibly useful addition to a woman’s sex accessory collection – I am looking forward to seeing whether or not my partner notices greater vaginal strength!
Experience
I inserted the Smart Balls inside of me on my way out to a meeting, and a lunch. I got a kick out the fact that no one around me knew that they were inside of me - that made them all the more exciting Big smile They slid in unlubricated without much difficulty. As I made my way around my college campus and around the city, I hardly noticed them at all. When I did notice them, I was experiencing a slight, jiggling vibration that was very pleasant, but not super strong either. I walked up stairs, along city blocks, sat down for dinner, lounged at my computer, and hopped a bit experimentally with them inside of me. I had no issues completing any of these activities! I kept them inside of me for about six hours while running errands. When I removed them, I was very wet and aroused from the constant, light stimulation. They didn't cause any soreness, and were a breeze to rinse off with soap in the sink.

These seem like the vaginal exercisers of choice for many women. It's a good price for a well made product. You mentioned that it is harder to put in the second ball than the first. Is that because of vaginal resistance or the bendable middle section or both? Thanks for a thorough review.

I really think that might be the best part about Smart Balls, the fact that you can wear them out in public. They become your sexy little secret. Great review!

Jimbo Jones:

It was a mixture of both as far as the resistance goes. The second ball encountered more resistance from my anatomy personally, so I had to bend my knees a little more to get a good angle. It's partially due to the flexible material separating the two. Don't get me wrong though - it was not a lot of resistance, I simply had to adjust my position a bit because I am rather small.

  • Sizes of PC balls
    • I just skimmed through another review for Smart Balls, and was wondering.. what's best for PC exercise? Small balls, right? I assume, the smaller they are, the more effort you'd have to put into keeping them in.

      Also, what about the ones that are loose? Is it a good idea to just put two random balls up there? Has anyone ever had a problem getting them/one out?

      I have the Smartballs, as well as the Luna Beads by Lelo. The Smartballs aren't very small, and don't take much effort (if any) to keep in. Same goes for the Luna Beads (which are just a tad smaller than the Smartballs).

      I also have glass ben wa balls, as well as tiny metal ones. I've never really had problems with the glass ones randomly falling out (the only ones to ever do that were the metal, since they're so small). Nothing can become "lost" in your vagina, since the cervix acts as a barrier to the rest of your reproductive system. To take the loose ben wa balls out, all I do is squat or lay down and hook them with my finger (one at a time) to remove them.

      [I have this philosophy that if you aren't willing to stick a finger up yourself to remove them, you really shouldn't be putting them in your vagina in the first place.]
    • Also, if you're having trouble getting the balls out, you can squat and bear down to "push" them out a little more.

      Personally, I'd use something with a string, since it's hard for me to pop things in to my vagina in the first place.

  • Ben wa balls
    • Well, I do not know much about them and I really would like to. I am not sure where to start. I read a fantasy about them and a lot of the post and reviews mention wearing them while out and about or even working out. So I would love to give that a try. I think I want some with weight and a cord that I do not have to worry about getting germy so...help please

      I really want some also, and I'll probably be settling for these versus the Smart Balls or Luna Beads, simply because of size. I'm a pretty petite woman and I don't think I could use either of those products comfortably for a good amount of time. Plus, you can't have intercourse with the Smart Balls!

      I'm not too worried about a cord, unless the balls are attached. I've had some, uh, "interesting" things in my vagina before that I was able to push out easily, so I'm not afraid to use a cordless set.

      What do you mean by "getting germy"?

      Some of the reviews said the nylon cords did not clean too well and so they had to throw the balls away sooner than they thought. I think I am going to get either the Smart Balls or the Desi. I don't really like the cord on the smart balls. It doesn't look sturdy enough and the Desi sit in a girdle and looks like a lot of work to clean.

  • Smart Balls can go in the ass, apparently
    • On the product description: "These weighted balls are coated in elastomed to help make them easier to clean and keep clean. This also makes them a good toy to use anally as well."

      Seriously? Seriously?

      Seriously? Seriously?
      I dunno, there is a pretty good size difference between the covered string and the two balls...I honestly never thought of that, but it looks like it'd work fine.
    • I seriously would advise against it. If the first ball goes in, the second one probably would go in as well. There are a lot of anal toys that lack a good base to make them butt safe, and it is a shame really. I always advise against using toys anally unless they have a good sized flange base. A smooth ball shape is not going to stop a toy from getting sucked inside. I don't own a set of anal beads yet because of this...I just don't feel most of them are safe.

      The material is another concern with the smart balls. The Elastomed is non porous, but not technically sterilizable. Fun Factory advises against boiling them even.

      Bottom line is that these are intended and designed for vaginal use only.

  • Smart Balls material question
    • Blah, I mistakenly posted this as a reply to another question on the Smart Balls site. But I'm really curious, so I'm posting it again:
      I'm wondering what I should recommend to a friend when it comes to vaginal balls. I'm happy with the Desi, but I still wish it were entirely silicone. The Smart Balls are listed as silicone (yay!), but on the first review link the Product Specialist said that they were made of elastomed with a silicone finish. What does this mean? Could my friend sterilize them? It seems like the Smart Balls are safer than the other options on the site, but I just wanted to ask someone who knows more than me!
    • Well as for the best recommendation to a friend for specifically vaginal balls then I would most likely say these Smart balls, but this is dependent on her purpose and what task she is trying to accomplish:
      If she is looking to strengthen kegels (PC Muscles) then these are a good option but, balls in general are not going to be the best. The best option for PC Strength is a weighted dildo (such as Glass or Steel).
      If her purpose is to have an orgasm with these, then again I don't think balls are the best option. In this case it would be best to go with a vibrating egg or bullet (2-3 would be best if she is looking for a massive orgasm) 1 on clit, 1 vaginally, and 1 anally (optional, but could really enhance the pleasure)
      If your friend is looking for a method of foreplay and neither to get off, or just starting to strengthen PC muscles then the balls would be the best option. (and the best balls would probably be Smart Balls)

      I am pretty sure these balls are actually listed as the wrong material, since they are not 100% silicone. Doing some googling research on these balls, they are actually made of elastomed which is basically elastomer. They will soft like silicone but semi- porous. Even if they do have a silicone “coat” I wouldn’t risk sterilizing them in boiling water, but indeed they can be washed with soap or toy cleaner. (I would be sure to try and try them well to ensure that not a lot of water is left behind in the small pores.)

      As for the safeness of SmartBalls, I am unable to judge on that, but just looking at these makes me think the center line would snap, especially if used anally.
      -->” It seems like the Smart Balls are safer than the other options on the site” Hmm, compared to what? I am not really sure if you are comparing them to other Smartballs (which indeed these would probably be the safest) or if you are comparing them to other toys (in which there are much safer options out there than these. Ex: 100% silicone Tantus dildos & plugs, anal specific objects, weighted dildos, quality vibrating eggs/balls)

      You also might want to find out what your friend’s purpose is and I can further help you (Ex: if she wan’t a toy for vaginal, anal, or both usage, what she intends this toy to do for her --> (Orgasmic, Exercising, For play, Experimentation, etc)

      Hopefully this helps, and if you post back with any info, then the next time I check out the forums I will try to help you further. Due to sometimes my forgetful mindset, once you post a reply back, feel free to send me an email and say something like “hey please reply here:” (haha) just so I remember to check back here, and don’t abandon you for a month :P.

      Wow, thanks for the response. She's thinking specifically vaginal balls--exercising rather than exciting. I'm just really confused because Smart Balls are listed as silicone but don't seem to have more than a silicone coating? I'd like to recommend her to something that can be sterilized (even though she won't be sharing, so something like the Desi could work, even though it has non-silicone parts). But with so many people such big fans of the Smart Balls I'm mostly wondering--are they silicone? Elastomed? What are they, and what does it mean (are the reviews correct, can it be sterilized, etc.)?
      And if they're not silicone, shouldn't the listing be fixed? *is perplexed*

      I want to work and tighten my muscles to get stronger orgasms. I bought the Smart balls and have a question now. Do I take them out when I urinate?

      Well, you can take them out, but you don't have to. I personally leave them inside and feel no discomfort.
    • Quote: I want to work and tighten my muscles to get stronger orgasms. I bought the Smart balls and have a question now. Do I take them out when I urinate?
      Yup, you can leave them in. It might even make for better exercise! Just watch out for the string, maybe tuck it inside first.

  • Smart balls vs Royal Balls
    • lesgirl
      There are a few reviews that say the Royal balls break in the *thin* center part between the balls. Anyone had this experience with the Smart Balls? Any advice would be great!

      I've only had good experiences with my Smart Balls, and haven't experienced breakage, or heard of that from anyone else.

      I've never had a problem with Smart Balls, or heard of any similar issue.

      Smart Balls are very nice, but you get more options with the Luna Balls...you can mess around with different weights, which might be helpful if you are trying to increase the strength of the pelvic muscles.

      I'd rate the Luna ones as best, just because of the adjustability...But Smart Balls are certainly very good too :)))
