My Experience
I tested this tool in Week 5. At first, it looked like it might work as a soft plug (short dildo?), but after testing it, I understood why this product had been discontinued.
Because the material was too soft, both entry and removal happened almost instantly. It could be compressed very small by the body, so it did not create a stable expansion process. Instead of giving me a controlled stretch, it simply collapsed and slipped through too easily.
The short neck was another major problem. Since there was almost no stable neck area, a little pressure could make it pop back out. That made it very difficult to use as a proper plug, and even less useful as a training tool.
For me, Bulb can only be used as a small extra sensation tool. It does not provide enough structure, control, or stability for expansion training.
Improvement Notes
Improving this as a plug would require changing the neck, firmness, and base stability so much that it would almost become a different — and much more conventional — tool.
However, this failed plug did make me think about another possibility: what if this very soft bulb shape was used as a series of beads?
As a single plug, it is too soft and unstable. But if several soft bulbs were connected together, the extreme softness might make them much easier to pass through the bend and move even deeper than regular firm beads.
The concern is support. If each bulb is this soft, a connecting cord may not provide enough structure for the next bulb to push through the bend once it is already inside. It might simply lose direction.
So I think the idea is worth testing, but I would not expect too much from it yet.
