Overall, I love the Lelo Luna pleasure bead system. After using them for several weeks, I have noticed an increase in the strength of my pelvic muscles, and my husband has as well. After giving birth to my youngest, I noticed an occasional 'leak' when laughing or coughing, and the Luna pleasure bead system has resolved that problem.

As busy as I am in my day I often forget to do Kegel exercises, but the beads definitely helped me to remember while I had them in. They are easy to insert and comfortable to wear, whether you are using just one bead or two beads in the silicone connector. The movement of the balls is easily felt while doing simple movements such as walking or cleaning the house, though vigorous movements like running tend to overpower the movement of the balls. They do make a small amount of noise, though I have not yet had anyone else hear it while I had them in, or at least nobody has commented or questioned it. It might seem louder simply because it is a noise coming from inside your body. I couldn't really tell the difference in weight combinations while using these beads, though it is definitely possible that others may be able to feel a difference. There is really no need to 'hold' these in, as they stay put with no effort, unless you are jumping around. Lube can, and should, be used sparingly when inserting these beads. Large amounts of lube are not necessary, will make it far more difficult to insert, and may make them slip out. They seem to be more geared towards reminding you to do your kegel exercises than forcing you to squeeze the entire time they are in.

My only issue with these balls is that I actually get some motion sickness if I leave them in for too long. I didn't really think that could be an issue, but if you are incredibly prone to motion sickness, I would only leave these in for a short while. I found that as long as I keep the beads in for no longer than the recommended period of time, I feel fine.

Using these balls for the suggested amount of time (30 minutes) seems to work the best for me. If I leave them in any longer than that, I tend to start getting sick from the motion of the balls. If you are very prone to motion sickness, I would stick to the suggested usage time.
