This was my first time trying out a toy like this, but I'm glad I gave it a chance because it is so easy and comfortable to use. The packaging is anything but discreet so you'll probably want to toss it, but you could potentially keep the plastic clamshell case to store the toy in (I chose to store mine in a drawstring bag). There is also slight plastic-y/rubbery smell to the toy when it first comes out of the package, but it was a lot less noticeable after airing out for a little while.

As for the appearance of the toy, it's pretty to look at (I got the purple one and I really love the color) and definitely not intimidating for anyone who's a beginner. The jelly material is soft and has a bit of give to it, but it's firm enough to hold its shape so it serves its purpose very well. The suction cup is a nice feature, and it grips really well on every smooth, flat surface I've tested it on - you really have to work to pull it off so I don't think it'll go anywhere during use. I used an all-purpose water based lubricant with this toy, but since it can be used with any materials and is non-irritating, you may want to try a thicker lubricant or one designed specifically for anal use. I didn't experience any discomfort with it. My only problem with this toy is that I wish it were made of silicone or some material that was a little easier to sterilize. If you're concerned about cleanliness, this problem can be solved by using a condom over the toy.

Overall I really enjoyed this plug, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone curious about trying anal play.

Lube is your friend! Even with smaller toys like this one.

After using this toy for a while it eventually began to break down and I had to dispose of it. While this did give me an idea of what I am looking for in a butt plug, I am hoping to find something similar that is made from body-safe materials.
