SinFive Emigi - sex toy for women by SINFIVE - review by Alys

The SinFive Emigi is a wonderful Kegel exerciser that is not only discreet, adorable, and comfortable, but also very easy to use. The Emigi is similar to two-ball exercisers such as the Smartballs or Teneo Duo, but smaller, making it more comfortable for women who have a shorter vagina, or those of us with tipped uteri.

Because of its relatively small size, insertion is easy, simply treat it as a tampon: hold the Emigi by the base (near the tail) and insert in whatever position you find comfortable. You will know that it is seated correctly when it feels comfortable but still there. I have tried inserting it both with and without lube, and found that either was comfortable for me.

I would not recommend this toy for anal play as it is too short to be sure that it is not going to get lost up there, which could be difficult to explain to the EMT or Emergency Room personnel.

The Emigi is made of WTP, which is a specially formulated thermoplastic that is pthalate- and latex-free. WTP is completely non-porous, and this one in particular is made even safer and easier to clean because the Emigi's WTP has anti-microbial properties built-in.

The texture of the Emigi is fairly smooth, though slightly matte, which helps your vaginal walls grip it to keep it in place. There is a very slight give in the Emigi, and when you shake the Emigi, you can feel the ball inside each globe rattle around. When you shake it outside the body, you can hear a fairly quiet rattle of the balls moving, but when inserted the toy is silent.

There is a slight seam between the colored and white sections of the Emigi, though that is not felt once it is inserted. There is no noticeable smell from the Emigi, even when it was brand new.

The Emigi is an adorable little peanut shape that is about 2 1/2 inches in insertable length with a 4 inch tail for removal. For some people, the tail may be an irritant, but for me it was entirely unnoticeable until it came time to remove it, in which case it is very useful, in my opinion. I gave the tail a few solid tugs to see if the tail was connected well to the rest of the Emigi, and was a little surprised at how well anchored it felt.

At its widest, the Emigi is about 1 1/2 inches in diameter which makes for comfortable insertion. This small size makes the Emigi comfortable for almost everyone to wear for longer periods of time. I've worn my for about five hours at the longest, and all I noticed was how well lubricated I was when it came time to remove the Emigi... and I don't start off with lube!

For me, the balls inside the Emigi were a nice surprise every now and then. I found them to be most noticeable when I climbed the stairs, which makes it a wonderful motivator for those whose New Years resolution was to take the stairs instead of the elevator! The vibration is not particularly strong, but the sensation of the vaginal muscles clenching in reaction is particularly delicious.

There are many things about this toy that I absolutely adored: the insertion is easy, it is quite comfortable to wear for long periods of time, the vibrations (and resulting vaginal muscle contractions) were pleasant surprises, and I feel very comfortable wearing it in public.

The whole point to Kegel exercisers is to strengthen the PC muscles that can be weakened by childbirth, age, and weight and can lead to incontinence. One of the benefits to strengthening the PC muscle (other than better control over your bladder) is better orgasms; making the Emigi, and others like it, an easy way to better orgasms!

Because of the anti-microbial properties of the Emigi, clean-up is a breeze. Simply wash with warm water and mild soap (do not boil or it will lose the wonderful anti-microbial properties), let dry completely and then store. I don't store my Emigi in a special place because it is not as much of a lint-grabber as silicone toys can be. It can be used with water- or silicone-based lubes, but personally I find lube unnecessary.

The anti-microbial properties of the toy are encased in the outer surface, and as such will not unbalance your vaginal flora which are key to a happy vagina.

I love the packaging for the Emigi. It is discreet, minimal, and yet has all the information you need for the toy. It is a small plastic pouch, similar in shape to a paper grocery bag with the top closed (only much, much smaller). Inside is a discreet image, which when taken out and unfolded gives you information on cleaning and use. I've kept the package for when I'll want to store my Emigi for moving, but right now it gets enough use to be kept out!
