Very Smart Balls
While I was at the AASECT conference last weekend, I was thrilled to see that Fun Factory had a representative in the exhibition hall.
"What's Fun Factory?" you might be asking.
Fun Factory is a German sex toy company known for its aesthetically pleasing and top performing products! If you purchase a Fun Factory toy, you can also take comfort in the fact that the item is high quality, and free of toxic ingredients and allergens.
The Fun Factory representative provided me with the Smart Balls Teneo Duo. I looked at the two weighted balls and envisioned a lot of anal pleasure to be had. So, imagine my dismay, when the representative indicated that the balls are only for vaginal use. (Where's the fun in that?)
When I got up to my hotel room, I opened the box containing the Smart Balls. The two soft silicone balls are attached by a small piece of material. The end of the toy has a cord to assist with removal. The balls are ridged, and the two balls together feel about as heavy as a single golf ball. The weighted balls inside the silicone shell allow for some vibration, but you have to listen carefully to hear any noise emanating from the toy.
The box indicates that the toy helps strengthen vaginal muscles. Midwives recommend Smart Balls to women after pregnancy, and they are also used as a substitute or conduit for Kegel exercises. The goal here is to tighten the pelvic floor muscles, which in turn, increases pleasure during sex.
As I read about the toy in my hotel room, I rolled my eyes. I really wasn't in the market for a toy to tighten my pussy. I figured that the Smart Balls would get used once for the sake of the review and then tossed in the back of the toy drawer. Boy, was I mistaken!
My man came up with the brilliant idea to leave the balls in during oral and anal sex. The Smart Balls significantly enhanced the experience for me. Significantly.
The fact that the toy is ridged and weighted led me to believe that the cord would need to be pulled to move the balls and cause the vibrations. However, that's not the case. The toy works phenomenally well if it's just inside you. Or, as my man thankfully figured out, you can get a lot of enjoyment from subtle movements of the cord.
Imagine that you are just teasing the cord and tap it gently from one side to the other. Or guide it slowly up and down. You don't need repeated movements here since the vibrations respond to light, sporadic touches. And, no pulling or tugging of the string is required.
I inserted the toy without lubricant, although I appreciate that might be uncomfortable for some women. If you need to use a lubricant to insert the Smart Balls, use a water-based lubricant, rather than a silicone-based product. Since the Smart Balls are silicone, silicone lube might cause the product to melt. (Maybe that won't happen, but why risk it?) The Smart Balls can be cleaned with mild soap and water or a Toy Cleaner.
Once the Smart Balls were comfortably inside of me, my man focused on my clitoris with his tongue and occasionally touched the cord of the toy. During anal sex, the thrusting motion allowed the Smart Balls to vibrate enough to provide added G-spot stimulation. The vibrations were subtle, effective and not distracting at all. I found oral and anal sex to be much more intense and orgasmic than I was used to, and I directly attribute that to the toy. My man didn't feel the vibrations against his shaft, but he agreed that the anal experience was stronger with the toy filling my pussy.
After removing the Smart Balls, I noticed how pronounced my G-spot was. Three hours later, I still had increased sensitivity in that area. (For those of you who are still trying to harness the power of your G-spot or clitoral legs, you might find this toy to be very useful.)
Smart Balls can be used without stimulation to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles and help with Kegel exercises. The toy is highly recommended for postpartum women, although you should check with your doctor before inserting a toy into your vagina after delivery. And, as I learned, Smart Balls can heighten your enjoyment of oral and anal sex.
For straight women looking to bring something new into the bedroom, your man shouldn't find anything intimidating about the Smart Balls. There's also the advantage that the toy requires very little effort. No batteries, charging, or operation required. You can insert the Smart Balls inside and neither you nor your man need to do much else.
I also found the Smart Balls to be a great addition to my normal sexual mix. Bullets or small sex toys rarely stay in place. And, traditional vibrators are often too big to feel comfortable – let alone erotic – when inside your pussy during anal sex. The Smart Balls were just right.
Some sex toy websites indicate that the balls can be used anally. Please don't do that, though! Shanna Katz, a Sex Educator with Fascinations, explains why the balls aren't medically safe for anal use here.
Smart Balls retail for $29.90. Given how versatile the toy is, I found that price to be reasonable. I would much rather have more orgasms than 6 grande soy lattes anyway!
I was skeptical about Smart Balls, but I stand corrected. I expect this toy to be a regular part of my sexual routine. Thanks Fun Factory! xoxo
Note: Pursuant to FTC regulations, I received this product free of charge in exchange for my participation in a survey at the AASECT conference.
