This vibrator is good a beginner to anal play looking to get something to step up their game. For my husband, the Black Anal-T stimulates all the delicious excitable nerves in hubby's bum, and especially his prostate. This toy is slightly curved, so if you position it right, you can really hit that sweet spot! If you're inexperienced with anal play, please use it with a trusted partner to ensure gentle entry. Always use lots of lubricant.

If you are an experienced user with anal toys, I would imagine that this toy is easy to insert and remove on your own, so have at it!

The Black Anal-T is smooth plastic. It has no smell. I'm assuming no taste, but I'm not one to go putting things in my mouth unless it's food...or a person...so...not really sure. So, since the box did not say "edible," I didn't put it in my mouth. Now if you suggest covering it with a fruit roll up or dipping it in whipped cream... well, that's another story.

I digress, this smooth plastic is good for anyone. There's no bells or whistles with the texture and material, which is great for beginners.

The design of the Black Anal-T is really good, we think. The curve of the toy, inserted properly really hits the prostate right. The "T" part when inserted properly will rest right against the perineum; so when it is turned on, offers double vibrations (much to hubby's delight!) This toy is not very discreet, anyone who sees it would probably instantly know it was some sort of sex toy (depending on their knowledge of sex toys, might even guess it's for ass-play!) However, it is quiet. In or out, you are not going to get that usual "buzz buzz buzzing" that is the tell-tale sign of toy-play.

This toy measures 5 inches in length from end to end, but only 3 inches of insertable length and approximately 1 inch in diameter. This is not super threatening to someone who is new to anal play, and it is long enough to hit the sweet spot. It might be about the equivalent of two slender fingers.

Well, the packaging on the Black Anal-T says that it is waterproof, but my inspection of the cording and control pack leaves me wondering; therefore we haven't actually tried it. The cord is long enough that you don't have to be terribly close to your partner when in use and you can even have control of it if you are riding him or sitting before him performing oral. We've had this toy roughly a year and we've never had to change the batteries. We use it at moderate frequency. It takes 2-AA batteries.

It has four speeds: Low, Medium, High, and Super! The product page says it pulsates, but it does not, unless there's some hidden panel only dogs can hear... err... that glows under black light, or something. Anyway, it's easy to use the controls and gives the person in control several levels of torturous ecstasy to play with, and as I said before, it's really quiet.

It's a smooth plastic, so you can clean it with either a toy cleaner, warm water and antibacterial soap, or isopropyl alcohol. It is non-porous, but since it cannot be completely sanitized, I would not recommend sharing without a condom. Again, I don't trust that this product is completely waterproof, so I would not submerge it in water. It can be used with water, silicone, or oil lubricants, so lube up, it will make it more fun for you!

We enjoy this toy immensely. We use it a lot if I'm feeling more dominant, as hubby generally feels the most pleasure when he is in vulnerable positions, like when he's on his knees. I really enjoy being on top of my husband and riding him when this toy is in. He has some pretty earth shaking orgasms when we use it like this.
