A Great Kit to Get

The minimal look and choice of material for these butt plugs made them really stand out. I love the IKEA-like colors and designs, as well as the simple and clean packaging, which won many points with both me and my partners. They were also IKEA-like in price and sales pitch. I wish more products like this would show up on EF, because it is always nice to cut out clutter and tackiness.

Use

This is a good quality set of smaller than average butt plugs, made of ever-safe, sterilizable, durable silicone, in pretty purple, pink/red, and black.

Each velvety plug has a different shape and size for varying sensations, and each has a substantial flare to the base that prevents them being pulled into the body upon insertion.
If you have a taste for anal plugs, these are definitely worth a try. With silicone, it is hard to go wrong. They are firmer than jelly plugs and consequently require a tiny bit more caution, but, in my opinion, they are much easier to lube up and insert. And, since they are silicone, they are compatible with all of my favorite water-based lubes. Since I don't even have any silicone-based lubes, I have no worries of my plugs degrading due to a bad lube/toy combination.
In any case, these have been great as a slow trainer for my #1, and #2 is excited to give them a try after learning more about anal play and looking them over. We love being able to share toys, and it is possible to safely do so with these plugs, as they are so easy to clean and sanitize. This is especially great since we don't tend to use toy condoms. We don't even use them with each other, so why would we on toys?

Material / Texture

After ordering a pack of silicone rings, I had already developed an infatuation with silicone that spurred me to order this kit, especially after my negative experiences with jelly plugs. I love not having a wave of odor wash over me upon opening my EdenFantasys box, and that is just one major perk of the silicone. While I would have preferred the insertable areas of the plugs to be smooth, the all-over velvety texture helps you to keep a grip on the plugs and helps keep lube distributed over the surface more evenly, as opposed to letting it bead up and roll off. The firmness of the plugs is what was really exciting, as many toys before had too much give to them, making insertion difficult. The plugs' silicone is not so rigid like glass that it has no give whatsoever; it has just a little bit of give to it. Unlike jelly, has about the same level of squish to it as these plugs, the silicone plugs also have BODY to them - a structural firmness that won't let them collapse as they are inserted, which was very important for me to find for my gentleman who needs a firm and constant pressure to open up. Besides that, these plugs don't seem to grab hair as much as other types of toys I have tried, at least when lubed up.

Design / Shape / Size

My gentlemen are still green and tender when it comes to anal play. We had previously only used fingers or thumbs and, for a while, had some rinky-dink jelly plugs for #1. The plugs in this new kit struck my lovers' fancy for their perceived smaller sizes, silicone's material safety and sterilizable nature (which allows for the plugs to be shared), and skinny tips.

Each anal plug is a relatively small and unintimidating size, good for those who have already experimented with fingers and maybe very thin plugs and who would like to bridge the gap. My #1 has had some good experience with things like small Doc Johnson jelly plugs and fingers. However, he was surprised by how hard it was for him to take even the purple one, since he has not been able to get used to different shapes and textures just yet.

These plugs all have flares that go all the way around, which is great to guarantee that nobody ends up embarrassed at the doctor's office. However, I have to say that I hope the round flare design gives way to a flat, T-handle flare that won't end up folded between the butt cheeks, trying to unfold and eject itself. That is the only gripe I have about these plugs! The inflexibility of the silicone makes them basically pop themselves out due to that damned, rounded base.

Performance

I'm not one hundred percent sure if these toys' bases are supposed to suction or not, but they definitely do. I accidentally stuck one on the side of the sink once and had a hard time prying it back off.

These plugs are so easy to lube, insert, and clean. I am a little disappointed that they don't stay in very well, however, and they are really only a momentary experience if somebody isn't holding on to them or they aren't tied on. We end up using them more as probes or stimulation that has to come out before moving on to other activities, as they will pop out and roll away otherwise. Additionally, the popping out has proven to be an uncomfortable experience for the boys. It's either in or out, and anything in between proves pretty painful.

Once these plugs were gotten used to, I was able to rock them around and really work on hitting the Mr's pleasure points, especially with the purple one which has rocketed to being the favorite. These plugs really do increase the intensity of my partner's pleasure when he's in the mood for them.

Care and Maintenance

Ever since signing on to EdenFantasys and learning about silicone, it has become one of my favorite materials to buy. Personally, we aren't clean-freaks, but I can rest assured that I can scrub these down with antibacterial soap and not worry about any nasties lingering around. I use a soft veggie cleaner type brush and regular Dial liquid soap and water.

There are a lot of methods that one may use to clean silicone toys besides soap and water (such as boiling or using a 1:10 bleach water solution), but for me these are a little intense. You may want to consider a sterilization method like boiling if you share toys A LOT or (definitely) if you have partners who are not fluid-bonded. Especially with anal toys, sterilization between partners is extremely important.

These are easy to travel with or store just by putting them in a non-linty bag or box.

Packaging

Low-waste and low on the BS, the packaging for this kit has been my favorite so far of all of the different kinds of packaging for toys that we have ever received. All three plugs come in the same clear crackly plastic bag, which shows all of the plugs clearly and is labeled simply "EdenFantasys". Very clean and simple, this is by far the best way to go for packaging, at least for those unashamed of their purchase.

Follow-up commentary
We've been enjoying these a little bit less lately. Their round bottoms really do present a problem with them staying in during play. They pop themselves right out. They were fun for a while but now, the novelty has worn off.
