I got the set today and they were very easy to put in. The teeny tiny rubber bands for the smallest gauge, well, that's another story lol. I got the rainbow stainless steel ones and love the colors. If you aren't very dextrous I'd suggest help getting the rubber bands on the back but otherwise they're perfect and exactly what I ordered. Make sure you get some kind of lobe butter if you don't make your own, too. You will want your skin softened for the stretch and the gauge to glide in easily.
