My toybox was lacking in waterproof toys, so I was excited to get the Waterproof Delights Ballsy. I was a little wary of the jelly material, but I didn't necessarily want to bring a more expensive silicone toy into the water. So, I figured I'd give it a try.

Upon taking it out of the shipping box, the first thing I noticed was how small it was. It even says on the packaging "Ultra-thin". Now, I don't necessarily need a Gigantor sized vibe, but I think I was expecting something at least a little bit meatier; maybe because it's a penis-style vibe. This was really my own fault, as the product description clearly states the size. I guess I just overlooked it.

The packaging itself looks sort of cheap, and not classy at all; standard fare for California Exotics. The vibe itself looks better. It's a rich dark blue and the penis is fairly detailed, with superficial veining and a small head. The top half (near the head) of the vibe is noticeably thicker than the bottom half, before it flares out again in a slightly larger rounded area. There is no curve, so you can't really expect much g-spot stimulation out of this. I was expecting a strong smell from the jelly, but thankfully didn't notice any.

I was fairly pleased with it when I got it out of the packaging, so I ran and grabbed the two AA batteries it required, popped them in and turned it on. I was immediately disappointed. It has a basic twist dial at the base that controls the on/off and the level of vibration, and even when cranked up all the way it doesn't produce too much of a buzz. It's not completely flat, just not too powerful, which I should have expected considering it only takes two AA's.

I wasn't immediately taken by the Waterproof Delights Ballsy, so I didn't feel compelled to try it out right then. I washed it with some mild soap and warm water, and it did indeed seem to be waterproof.

A couple days later I decided to try it out in the shower. I made sure it was closed up tight and turned it on. As expected, it failed to provide enough clitoral stimulation to get me off, so I switched to vaginal insertion. I couldn't feel any of the ridges on the shaft. It has almost no flexibility, which I normally like, but because it has no curve it couldn't hit my g-spot. Major bummer. It just left me frustrated.

I read some reviews from guys saying they loved this toy for anal play, so I figured I'd give that a shot. I don't normally venture too far into that territory (no pun intended), and I didn't know if I could even manage something like the Waterproof Delights Ballsy. So, I grabbed one of my rabbit vibrators and played with that for awhile, and when I felt sufficiently aroused I slathered the Ballsy in lube and worked it in a little. At that point, I was grateful the toy was smaller than I expected! Once I turned it on, I had an amazing orgasm very quickly with the combination of it and the other vibe. If it weren't for that, this toy would probably end up in the bottom of my toybox, seldom used.

Because this toy is jelly it can't be sterilized, and so it is definitely not safe for sharing. Use mild soap and water to clean it. I would recommend using condoms just because jelly isn't the safest material.

I won't be using this toy much but it is nice to have a vibe that can go in the water, and it does seem to live up to the "waterproof" designation. It's probably an okay vibe for women who don't need lots of oomph in the buzz, but it didn't work that well for me in that respect. It was all right for insertion, but don't expect an orgasm out of it. Surprisingly, I enjoyed it best for anal stimulation, and the flared base makes it safer for use in that way. For the price, it's not a bad investment.

I have grown somewhat attached to this toy. Although I still despise the material, I now use it fairly frequently for anal stimulation, with a condom. I have completely abandoned it for vaginal or clitoral use, as it's just frustrating in that respect and I end up reaching for a stronger vibe, or a larger dildo. But for anal use, it's great. Not too big and a nice stimulating vibration. Plus it's still waterproof and hasn't broken any seals yet, which is awesome.
