Honestly, I did not get how the Ophoria A Chain worked at first. Then I read the little technique brochure and tried it out. This toy is absolutely awesome! For a beginner it is a bit tricky to use at first. The chain is very flexible, and it takes a little bit of effort to get it in there. Once I did however I am glad I took the time. The silicone felt so smooth and comfortable going in. As I pulled it out though, I could do nothing but shudder in pleasure. The sensation from removing the beads was so intense! It was also super easy to clean and not incredibly hard to store. This is the first time anal toy I would recommend for anyone!
