This anal toy has gradually larger bulges that make very easy to work up to the whole length, so it doesn't require a huge time investment to work up to insertion. Because of the small size and design, it's perfect for beginners, and is best used anywhere where there's a hard surface so the suction on the bottom can stick, so you can thrust away! Wooden chairs proved to be my favorite. However, if you have a large backside, you'll have a hard time maneuvering, so you can thrust against a wall; if you're not careful, the suction will stop working, and the Bubble Butt Ballsy will pop right off!

The Bubble Butt Ballsy is made of PVC, which is sort of sticky, but the texture is overall smooth, which makes it perfect for an anal toy, and the toy is stiff enough for insertion, but not as hard as many plastic toys, so take advantage of the bend it provides!

One thing to be wary of: the box says odor-free, but this is NOT the case. The toy is tasteless, but the smell is overwhelmingly of strong, new plastic. I've washed my hands with soap since using it, and I can still smell the plastic on my fingers...not sexy which is another reason why I chose to use a condom to play.

The Bubble Butt Ballsy is aptly named. It has a series of three bulbous bulges, each bigger than the last, all of which lead up to a wider, flat base that doubles as a suction cup. Though the toy's overall length of 3.75 inches with an insertable length of 3 inches might be a little small for a harness, it may be possible to fit it in because of the flared suction. The pictures of this toy may seem awfully wide for a beginner (my friend told me just that when I showed her), the perfect circularity to the bulges make it incredible easy to insert, and working up to the next one is easier than a breeze. The first bulge is smaller than a quarter! See? Not scary at all!

Though I'm not a beginner to anal play, I appreciate the perfect levels of gradual increase from one bulge to another on this toy. Unlike some of my other anal toys, with this one, I just had to slap on some lube and go! Perfect for some quick play when you don't want to expend lots of time warming up! For those used to anal insertion, this toy will barely stretch you (or not at all), but there's enough there to still provide some good sensations.

The bottom of this toy is formed into a suction cup. I have to say, I was in LOVE with this idea; it's not often enough I can fuck myself without using my hands. However, the small size of the toy made it almost impossible to thrust against a wall, and the suction won't stand up to hard thrusting. Setting it on a chair worked much better, but the small size of the base made it difficult to insert the last whole bulge fully...maybe my bum is too large for that! Because of the base design issue, the insertable length decreased from 3 inches to about 2.5, which is not enough! I think I would have been perfectly happy with the advertised 3 inches, but once you get below that, they toy becomes a lot less fun.

I would also like to add that this is a hard toy to get a grip on. It's clearly only meant to be used with the suction. No hands allowed! So if you're a gentle thruster who's a beginner to anal, this might be for you. If you like to go hard, you might be disappointed.

The Bubble Butt Ballsy is made of PVC and is free of phthalates and latex and is anti-bacterial. The surface is sticky so it attracts dust and fibers easily, so I would recommend storing it in a separate bag from your other toys, using a condom during use, or washing it before AND after use (combinations of these won't hurt, either!) I felt more comfortable using a condom, which is something I recommend, and even insist on if you're thinking of sharing it.

This toy is water resistant (although the suction doesn't work while wet) and can be cleaned with sex toy cleaner or warm water and anti-bacterial soap. Feel free to use either water or silicone-based lubricants, but make sure to only use water-based lube if you're covering this toy with a latex condom!
