I bought these beads along with my first plug. I'm fairly new to anal play, however I LOVE my plug. These particular beads have taken some getting used to. My boyfriend and I thought they could be fun for both anal and vaginal stimulation so we gave them a shot. You really can't beat the price.

I found the size to be a little overwhelming, even though they are actually a smaller circumference than my plug. They are easy enough to insert if they are nice and lubed up, however we've found they're a little harder to pull out. Also, the very first knot on the first bead kind of tore me up a little bit. I was swollen from it for a few days, which left a bad taste in my mouth when it came to using these beads. We have tried them since, and it really isn't much better.

At this point, I use them strictly as vaginal beads, which has been really fun. I'll walk around with them in and they hit me in all the right spots when I move and bend. I really enjoy using them in this manner, but would have wanted to get more use out of them as anal beads. I might be new to the whole anal realm, but so far my boyfriend and I have really enjoyed it. In the future, I will probably purchase a different type and smaller size anal beads.

Cleaning is also very easy. The material is plastic and is easy to clean with hot water and soap. That little sharp bit on the very first knot hasn't softened up like I would have hoped after soaking in water, so I'm not sure I'll ever really use them for anal pleasure again, but I still like using them in other ways.
