Duotone Ben Wa Balls Review – Hint, They’re Terrible

I’ve already talked about these in the all-inclusive article about Kegel Balls aka Ben Wa Balls.

However, rather than looking briefly at a bunch of them, I wanted to take a look at one in-depth, mostly to point out what you should buy or avoid.

Pictures help too. 

Let’s look at this model: Duotone Kegel Balls/Geisha Balls

This is a perfect example of what NOT to buy and why you have to be careful of Amazon.

FIRST RED FLAG – It’s easy to spot when the seller sells A LOT of varied products – we’re talking cross-dressing bras, to Halloween masks, to bath slippers. But I went ahead and got one because it was cheap, and I was more interested in tearing it apart than wearing it.

THE PACKAGING


It’s not the cheapest I’ve seen … but it’s pretty close. It also has none of the labelings on the Amazon page. Why?

Duotone” is a keyword used by a few other well-known brands or familiar models – including LELO. When you look it up, you’re inundated with a pile of options and no definitive answer as to what they are.

Sites or sellers will tack it on for hits, which is why we ended up with this questionable, substandard packaging that was discolored and pixelated like someone’s 10-year-old nephew was taking their first Photoshop lesson.

Not to mention the wording on the side of the box progressively gets worse in spelling.

THE MATERIAL


Silicone, my ass.

First, 100% silicone coating isn’t that cheap to make (at least not for the price tag of 5 bucks, give or take). My skepticism was confirmed when I opened the box, whipped out my lighter and burned the little bastard.

Melt-city.

IMPORTANT NOTE: For those of you who don’t know, when you burn 100% silicone, it should leave a bit of ash behind or maybe a light scorch mark that should rub off. But it shouldn’t melt like a snowman in summer. If it does, there are other materials inside, probably some kind of plastic or other chemicals that will be bad for your vagoo.

The sneaky company even wrote, “elastomed” on the side, which I’m guessing what their attempt at saying “elastomer” or “elastomated” which means there’s been extra product added to make it soft and pliable.

So, that was a huge, shady fail right there.

But let’s keep going anyway.

THE DESIGN


The only thing that disappointed me more than the shoddy material was the construction of the balls themselves.

The “silicone” casing just sits on the inner, ABS balls, which means that all bodily fluids WILL get under there and no amount of washing will get it 100% sterilized. Keep in mind that this case isn’t meant to come off and go back on again – I had to cut the damn thing off – but it’s not molded enough or tight enough on the casing.

The ABS balls were snapped together like one of those flimsy kinder eggs, and I would bet dollars to donuts that liquid could get through there too.

Sloshy balls. Yummy.

The weight was just a weight – it wasn’t recycled iridium, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it was something questionable. However, the black coating over them was only half-finished. Possibly someone on the assembly line thinking it was “good enough.”

THE CONCLUSION


I originally said it might be good to try once and then throw away, but now I only want to throw it away – mostly because we have no idea what material is.

The only PROS I could see were the pull cord and lightweight nature of the balls, which would be good for beginners. However, there WILL be something out there that’s better.

All in all, my rating for these would be LIES/10.
