Butt Plug Reviews: Find the Best Anal Toys for You

Whether you're an anal play beginner or an experienced user, finding the right butt plug is essential for pleasure and comfort. In my butt plug reviews, I explore different sizes, shapes, and materials to help you choose the perfect one for your needs.

From beginner-friendly trainer sets to high-tech vibrating options, I test and review a wide variety of plugs so you can make an informed decision.

Choosing the Right Butt Plug: What to Consider

Not all anal toys are the same. Here’s what to think about before you buy:

  • Size Matters – Anal toys often feel larger than expected. Pay attention to the circumference and not just the length.
  • Material & Safety – Choose body-safe, non-porous materials like silicone or glass for hygiene and durability.
  • Vibrating vs Non-Vibrating – Prefer deep, rumbly vibrations or a simple, solid plug? My reviews cover both styles.
  • Special Features – Remote-controlled, rechargeable, weighted, or even connected to a cock ring—there’s a plug for every preference!

Lube Is Essential for Anal Play

Unlike the vagina, the anus doesn’t produce natural lubrication, so a high-quality anal lubricant is a must. I recommend using long-lasting, thicker lubes to ensure a smooth, comfortable experience. Avoid desensitising gels, as they can mask discomfort and increase the risk of injury.

Find Your Perfect Butt Plug

From small, tapered plugs for beginners to advanced anal toys with intense sensations, I’ve reviewed them all. Read my detailed, honest reviews to discover the best butt plug for your desires. Explore now!

Fifty Shades Darker Kinky Fuckery Wild Couples Kit Review

8 out of 10
With the release of the Fifty Shades of Grey books, then movies, came a whole host of fascinating kinky toys. Hardcore 50 Shades fans are no longer classed as 'newbies' to BDSM; some couples have graduated from beginner’s bondage to the more adventurous bondage kits. The Fifty Shades Darker Kinky Fuckery Wild Couples Kit is absolutely suitable for beginners to BDSM, but is also suitable for those who want to go a little further. 

Seven Creations Roll Play Medium Butt Plug Review

8 out of 10
The Seven Creations Roll Play Medium Butt Plug (with jiggle ball and suction cup) was ordered from Lovehoney together with three other anal sex toys I thought would be suitably sized for my experience level. They all arrived in the same box within 2 working days of placing the order.

John Thomas Toys Parasite Platinum Silicone Dildo Review

8 out of 10
The Parasite is, without doubt, the oddest looking dildo I've ever seen. And I've seen a lot of fantasy dildos. But it's that uniqueness that draws me to it. It doesn't look even remotely penis-shaped, and I suspect you could hide it in plain sight on a hallway shelf alongside other movie props and quirky memorabilia. It's pretty hideous, actually, but this is exactly why I was delighted at the thought of getting penetrated by it.

10 out of 10
***LINKS UPDATED FOR THIS YEAR - CLICK THE GREEN BUTTONS TO BUY BEFORE THEY SELL OUT*** Lovehoney have been releasing new sexy advent calendars every Christmas for a few years now, and they are consistently popular –to the point of selling out entirely, well before Christmas. I was obviously delighted when the team sent me the Lovehoney Couple's Sex Toy Advent Calendar 2020 for my review here on the Cara Sutra sex blog. Spoiler: this Christmas countdown calendar is very exciting and well worth the price tag.
Nexus Revo Extreme Remote Control Rotating Prostate Massager Review

Nexus Revo Extreme Remote Control Rotating Prostate Massager Review

8 out of 10
Price:
£149.99
The Nexus Revo Extreme Remote Control Rotating Prostate Massager is clearly a monster but the quantity in no way diminishes the quality. The excellent shaft is 100% silicone and I was particularly impressed by the base which itself had a solid girth and nodules designed to emphasise any stimulation of the perineum.
Lovehoney Ignite Vibrating Butt Plug Review

Lovehoney Ignite Vibrating Butt Plug Review

Price:
£29.99
Some of the patterns of the Lovehoney Ignite Vibrating Butt Plug, especially those that included significant and sudden variations had the effect of concentrating the mind onto the plug and its significance. In my case it represented an unexpectedly intense experience...
Rocks Off Petite Sensations Bubbles Vibrating Anal Beads Review

£19.99
This product was purchased from Lovehoney with three other "anal beginner" devices and they all arrived in the same box within 2 working days of placing the order.

Lovehoney Booty Buddy Silicone Butt Plug Review

8 out of 10
Price:
£12.99
The size and resulting light weight of this beginner's product effectively eliminates any noticeable teasing to either the prostate or perineum. It has to be emphasised that the product is designed for beginners however, and as such, for the intended purchaser, the mere wearing of plugs may and should create some excitement.

Materials:
Silicone
I enjoyed discovering the anal-based joys of this triple set of plugs. I was expecting to be able to use them all with ease, as I'm no newbie when it comes to butt plugs and anal sex. However, my experiences with the plugs in this set is going to read like some sort of perverted Goldilocks story (something I'm sure a few of my readers wouldn't be averse to...)

Shop:
SheVibe
Materials:
Silicone
It's a great option for those new to sex toys who'd like a taster of different sensations before they move onto more powerful toys or something designed with a single purpose for specific body parts. They may find they really enjoy the anal beads, with or without the vibration, and decide to explore that further with something larger or longer. Or perhaps really enjoy the directed, pinpoint clitoral stimulation–there are better, more powerful toys for that too.

Retailing for approximately £150 online, the Nexus Revo Stealth has a superpower that no other prostate massages do.

Loving Joy Medium Cream Butt Plug Review

Loving Joy Medium Cream Butt Plug Review

7 out of 10
Price:
£8.95
Materials:
Rubber
The description of this butt plug is slightly misleading I think, the Loving Joy Medium Cream Butt Plug seems to me to be anything but 'medium'! When it arrived I ripped open the packaging and gasped at the girth on display, I knew I would need to serious warming up before getting this fella inside!

Shop:
SheVibe
Materials:
Silicone
I have to admit that this anal toy aroused my interest immediately when it came to selecting a product for my next sex toy review. I’ve found that I’m getting choosier about anal products as time goes on; I’m looking for specific features that I know I’ll enjoy rather than simply a type of material or a certain size. The Screaming O Rechargeable Vibrating Butt Plug appeared, at first glance, to tick all my boxes – so how did I get on with it during use? Let’s start at the beginning.

Lovense Hush App Controlled Vibrating Butt Plug Review

Price:
£129.99
Brand:
Lovense
Materials:
Silicone
This silicone plug is made of material that feels smooth to the touch, is easy to clean, and is durable enough to survive at least 5 months of heavy use with no signs of wear or tear. This smart sex toy is relatively silent. My girlfriend has used the Lovense Hush App Controlled Vibrating Butt Plug on me in public and with ambient noise no one has noticed. Though the faces I make when she turns it on high certainly earn me some attention.

Price:
£9.95
Materials:
Plastic, PVC
This month I will be reviewing a couple of toys again. The first one is the Loving Joy Anal Douche from Loving Joy. This is the first time I have used one of these. It’s kind of like the little bulb syringe that you would use for flushing out your nose or ear only much bigger.
