Interesting fun for an inexpensive toy! We got this to try out for some introductory anal play and were very pleased. While very simple, it does offer some different sensations from fingers or a dildo. The sensations of the gradually increasing beads is quite pleasant and builds anticipation of each successive bead. The beads are smooth and slide in easily. With a small amount of lubricant, there is only pleasure. The round ring-shaped handle on the end makes it easy to retract, or to stroke your partner.

My husband's experience was pleasant and it did enhance his stimulation. We followed the suggested technique of pulling the beads quickly during his orgasm and this technique definitely enhanced his experience and increased the intensity of his orgasm. He enjoys using the 101 beads|Anal 101 intro beads.

Since they are easily sterilized, I have also tried them and also find them to be quite pleasurable. The length was a bit intimidating at first, but I found there to be no discomfort at all and the sensation of the beads very erotic and pleasing. I enjoy having the largest bead pulled in and out as we either have intercourse or alone or with a vibrator or dildo. More stimulation is always a great thing! Because of the ring on the end, it is possible to pleasure myself with them as well and this is a nice addition to the use of my vibrator, but does require a bit of flexibility to reach both at the same time! I recommend yoga.

We have graduated to larger diameter anal toys, but this one provided us with a great first experience, very positive and pleasant, and I would recommend them as a cheap introduction to anal play to anyone wanting to experiment a little, but not invest in a more expensive anal toy.
