This is an anal plug with a dual use. You can use it simply as a metal toy, or as an e-stim product. That is up to you, however keep in mind that it is rather thick at the widest point of the plug. Both methods have their advantages, depending on your personal preferences.

Despite being a plug-type toy, it can stimulate a pussy just as easily and so offers another purpose for the ladies. However, keep in mind that you should have an e-stim control box in order to use this.

A water-based lubricant is required on the toy itself in order to better conduct electricity. Make sure you only use this product on the lower half of whichever body it is being used on.

The toy is made of steel. It must be used with a lubricant in order to better facilitate the electrical impulses. There is no real texture to the item, as it is completely smooth metal. The only part that could be described as textured is the little ring near the tip, that separates the two metal parts from one another.

Because it is metal, it has no smell to it.

Overall, this toy looks to be designed for an experienced anal player. The thickness at the widest point is such that a newbie to anal probably could not get it inserted fully. Or worse, hurt themselves in the attempt. That isn't to say that a beginner can't use this. Just do not attempt to fully insert the plug.

Personally, I slid it in as far as I could, with a soft surface beneath such as a recliner or mattress. My weight allowed the toy to remain inside, while the surface beneath had enough give in it in order to not make the process a painful one.

Overall, the electrical impulses will emanate from inside of you. This is due to two different metal parts on the outer part of this plug. The electricity will arc between them while it is inside you. If you shift about, you can feel them moving within you. With a proper control box, and adjusting it to your comfort zone, the sensation is not unlike the vibrations of a normal vibrator.

There is no noise, of course, and I wouldn't advise using it in or near water at all.

A water-based lubricant is required to use it. As far as cleaning goes, a wipe with toy cleaner and warm water can work. If you wish you can use boiling water, although a full submersion seems risky. At most I would recommend holding the base and dunking the main part of the plug into the boiling water. Rather than getting water near where the wire goes in at the base.

As far as storage, it comes in a little black bag that you can keep it in, which is handy if you have a dark spot to stick it in.
