I have a 75 lb black lab mix who's a powerful chewer, so when I saw this dental chew ball for LARGE Dogs (the capitalized LARGE helped) in Petsmart, I decided to give it a go. It was 21.99 in Petsmart. It's been maybe an hour and my dog has already broken the ball in half along the seam (and is still chewing it as I type).
For something advertised as a chewing item, a dental tool no less, meant to be used "2-3 times daily," I expected it to put up much more of a fight.
Also, my dog likes the toothpaste... he'll eat it if I have some on my fingers... But he doesn't like it enough to chew the ball. Instead I stuffed the holes with plain turkey meat and some rice and that's been keeping him occupied.
Pros: I like the multiple holes. My dog uses his incisors as well as his molars to try to work food out of them, which means he's effectively scraping those areas clean (in theory).
Cons: Not tough enough. Toothpaste not enough of an incentive to chew.

...not literally the rubber chew, but will salivate at the liver flavored paste. I saw this at Petsmart and used my handy barcode scanner in app to price shop. Not to my surprise, Amazon had it and I knew it'd be on my doorstep in a couple days, so I bought! Great decision.My 75 lb Shepherd really enjoys this thing. It's right sized so he can work on it with no fear of choking. This version is too large for most small(er) dogs and so I can't comment on the size, the other way. The material was well made and the grooves are good for the gums, while the wholes make it nice to stuff peanut butter or any number of flavored dog treat pastes... It's good for their hygiene and a nice durable chew.
He has lost a little interest in it, but a lot of dogs do that... especially when you are constantly spoiling. For the price and quality, a great choice if you are on the fence. Your dog(s) will love you for it!
