kGoal Classic Kegel Trainer Review

Visually, the kGoal Classic Kegel Trainer resembles a fitness aid. The saturated blue silicone seems both calming and energetic; and the white accents add freshness. The aesthetic could be elevated without the seam in the silicone, but I don't personally mind it. This trainer was clearly engineered with comfort and versatility in mind. There are just two upgrades I'd prefer: a gradually tapered tip and waterproofing. Overall, the design is quite brilliant.

The only difficulty I can foresee with the kGoal Classic Kegel Trainer would be anatomic incompatibility. If one can vaginally insert an object with a 0.5-inch diameter, then the rest should be a breeze. For me, it felt comfortable once inserted and remained in place. The power button is large and easily activated. Every other function is performed using the App or pelvic floor, which is perfect for those with mobility concerns. The App is simple to download, has a beginner-friendly user-interface, and performed for me with no malfunction.

This product feels to be made of high-quality materials. It's fashioned from 100% phthalate-free, body-safe Class VI silicone, and the feedback vibrations activate with no perceivable lag; this is pretty important for game play, since a single second of delay could affect scoring. The vibrations are gentle and slightly below standard volume. It does lose durability points for having an unprotected comfort valve. It wouldn't be hard to get water or lubricant into the valve, thereby compromising the electronic components.

There's an ocean of variation when it comes to Kegel trainers. While the price of basic, silicone trainers starts around $15, smart trainers tend to range between $119-$200. The kGoal Classic Kegel Trainer is listed at $179 on the official kGoal website. Although this is a reasonable price for the smart technology, the limited warranty and water-permeability may be enough to consider other options. The We-Vibe Bloom retails for $119, has adjustable weights, is fully waterproof, and comes with a 2-year warranty. The Elvie Trainer retails for $199; it also comes with a gamified app, is fully waterproof, has a 2-year warranty, and detects incorrect Kegel movements.

The kGoal Classic Kegel Trainer exceeded my expectations. The battery is advertised as running 120 minutes. I've completed around 18 10–20-minute workouts, and the battery is still going strong. It didn't get hot during use, and I only experienced discomfort while inserting the firm tip. Eventually, I did experience more control over my pelvic floor. Not to mention, I dedicated more time to working out simply because I enjoyed the games. As mentioned in the "Special Feature" section, the data collection could use some tweaking. However, it worked very well overall.

The packaging reflects the duality of the kGoal Classic Kegel Trainer- a health device on the outside and a party on the inside. It comes in a sturdy, cylindrical, cardboard tube. The exterior displays an accurate portrayal of the product within, along with concise consumer education. Grey polka dots ornate the white interior, which was a pleasant surprise: it's the secret, fun lining in an otherwise serious jacket. A pull tab security seal kept the product safe from tampering, though it did tear the cardboard graphics upon removal. It came with a USB charger, user guide, storage bag, and a sample packet of lubricant.

The kGoal Classic Kegel Trainer is made from body-safe silicone. It should only be used with water-based lubricant. Clean before and after each session, using a damp cloth and silicone-safe cleanser. Clean extra thoroughly where the arm meets the adjustable pillow, as lubricant may accumulate in the divot. Since the design is only splash-resistant, users should protect the comfort valve from moisture and lubricant. Avoid excessive temperatures and store in the bag provided.
