**Intro**If you are curious about anal play, want to see what it feels like, or what to introduce a partner to some new sensations, this is one of the best toys in existence to accomplish this. It's size is modest, it is high quality, the price is right, and the shape is something that most people will like. I would highly recommend this toy for males and females of all sexual orientations. This was my first plug ever, and it was a good one for finding out what butt plugs are like.**Quality & the silicone construction**This toy has been carefully design for safe and fun sexual play. It is made of medical grade silicone. The advantages of this are that it is non-porous, so it is very easy to clean and very smooth. Silicone, compared to other types of rubber, is quite heat tolerant and chemically inert, so you can clean this plug extra well by bleaching it, boiling it, or washing it in the dish washer. The toy has a nice soft rubber-like consistency, about like that of the rubber on a rubber band. It will not give off phalates, and it will not cause latex allergies, because it isn't made of plastic or rubber (AKA latex). There are no seams on the sides of the plug to create sharp or irregular edges. The flanged base is important since it won't allow the toy to slip inside of you where you can't get it to come back out.**The shape**This toy has a series of graduated balls of increasing sizes on it. The first ball is quite small, about 1/2" in diameter, and it rounded on the tip. The largest ball is about 7/8" in diameter. The modest sides of the balls means that this toy is great for first time people. You can push it in past one or two balls, see how you like it, and then go for more if you like. Most people will have anatomy that is large enough to take several of the balls on their very first time. The overall shape of this toy means that it has similar sensation to anal beads when you move it in and out. You will feel each one go in as you are your partner pushes it in, and then feel each one again when it comes out, and it feels really good. For a more pronounced sensation, you can try pulling it out quickly, once you get comfortable with using it. Finally, the rounded tip means that the toy won't feel pokey or sharp when you are getting it started.**Limitations/Things to remember**This plug does have some limitations. I don't consider these to be disadvantages, they are more like reasons to possibly look at other plug designs, because you are looking for something else that this toy can't provide. Here they are:The first limitation is related to this toy being called a "plug," inferring that you can put in it, and it will stay inside you, but it really isn't capable of this. In most cases, it will slip itself out of you if you take your hands off of it. This is particularly true while orgasming. There are other Tantus toys that work better as plugs, like The Ryder, Infinity, Perfect Plug, Perfect Plug Plus, and others. Try these instead if you are going for plugging, and wearing the plug inside you hands-free.The second limitation of this plug is that the base is circular and fairly large. This is wonderful for safety, but it can create quite a bit of bulk between your butt-cheeks. It does flex some to alleviate this, but other newer toy designs by Tanus have overcome this problem, such as the Perfect Plug, which has a more anchor shaped base.The third limitation is that this is a silicone toy, you aren't supposed to be able to use silicone lube on it. Use water-based lube or oil based lube. If you must use silicone-based, put a condom over it. Some people have said that certain high quality silicone lubes *do* work with this toy. I have not tried this, because I'm skeptical. If you want to try though, put a small amount on the base of the plug, and wait for a day or two, and see what happens.The fourth limitation is that this toy is pretty small. This makes it very excellent for beginners, and those with small anatomy, but if you are more experienced, you are going to want something larger. This plug was my first one ever, and I was able to get it all the way in on the first time I used it. This left me wanting for more, so I quickly had to buy a larger one. I don't regret buying this one first, but keep in mind that if you may want to upsize soon after trying this one. If you are an experienced user, this toy will probably be too small for you.**Summary**The cheap cost, effective material, effective shape, modest size, and high quality of this toy makes it an excellent choice for beginners, and a safe choice for some safe and fun play. I highly recommend it to anyone who is curious about anal insertion play!!Have fun!!!
