Neo - butt plug by Tantus - review by Ansley

The Neo is designed to be used as an anal plug. Simply insert before you begin a solo or partnered session, and let the fun begin! It's not too thick, nor too thin - it's the Goldilocks of anal plugs: it's just riiight. The pronounced and curved base prevents the toy from becoming lost and giving rise to an impromptu spelunking trip. It can be used by men and women alike: just apply a little lubricant and go for it.

The Neo is made of 100% silicone. It has no smell or taste. It is not designed to look like a realistic toy, but the smooth texture is pleasant to the touch. The plug itself is rather firm, with the middle being the hardest portion. The tip is somewhat soft and pliable, making insertion a breeze. Beginners and advanced users alike can use this plug, either vaginally or anally, though the former may leave one wanting for more (especially us size queens out there).

The Neo reminds one of an anchor. The base of the toy is rounded and, surprisingly, allows the toy to stand upright for storage (as is recommended). It's a sexy and sleek black anchor for your booty. The neck of the toy is a little thinner than the plug itself. This allows the anus to relax around the neck comfortably. The tip is slightly pointed and, with a good coating of lube, it goes in with little to no problem. As the toy widens, there is a moment of a discomfort that eases once the toy is completely inserted. Those who are more experienced with anal play should have no trouble with this design at all. It's weighted just a little bit, so you'll know it's there in the beginning, but with time it becomes more of a pleasant reminder than a focus.

This really is the Goldilocks of anal plugs. It's not too tall, not too wide, not too anything. It's perfect. The toy can be used during solo sessions or partnered sessions for added pleasure. It's easy to store; you can take it any way, and you get the added benefit of a little stretching in preparation for anal sex. The silicone is so smooth that there is very little drag, if any, when inserting. Obviously, it's a plug and not a dildo, so thrusting is really out of the question. When worn under clothing, it's hardly noticeable. When used as a vaginal plug, it has a tendency to turn sideways so the arms of the base are pointing thigh to thigh instead of clit to ass. This is slightly uncomfortable and has a tendency to pinch, especially with jeans.

YAY SILICONE! It's so easy to clean: just give it a good dousing under hot water with a mild soap and pat dry with a paper towel. Or you can boil it, bleach it in a 10:1 water/bleach solution, or throw it in the dishwasher (top rack, no dishwasher detergent please). There's also a plethora of toy cleaners to choose from if you so desire. Once it's dry, throw it in your bedside drawer, a toy sack, or whatever else you choose, and bring it out when you're ready to play. You can share this toy as long as it's disinfected first before the next person uses it (it should be good to go if you're fluid-bonded).

I was all "hell no" when it came to anal play before I found this plug. Now, I'm working up to using glass. I really do love this little guy and I think you will, too.
