Wouldn't call myself a total beginner but close to it! This bad boy looks cute as hell, is small enough but still much more rounded than slim silicone super-beginner plugs, and is decently heavy - so a good step up from real rookie stuff!
Easy to insert and remove, as a beginner to butt play, the size wasn’t intimidating.
It also didn’t feel like it was going to fall out, has a nice weight to it, and creates a nice sensation during penetration.
Picked this up because it was dirt cheap as part of the Game of Moans promotion and found myself pleasantly surprised. Despite being almost comically small (the bulb itself is only 4.5cm long and under 3cm diameter at its widest point) it's satisfyingly heavy. Its teardrop shape makes it incredibly easy to insert (I don't think even anal play novices would have much difficulty) and the narrow shaft right under the bulb means it stays firmly in place. No chance of it slipping out during sex or, I don't know, around the house. I'm used to much bigger toys and wasn't sure I'd even feel this one, but the weight gives it a nice constant pressure against the inside of your asshole. And finally, it looks stunning. In or out.
My only criticism is that its normal price is $100, more expensive than the much larger but otherwise identical 'Gold Butt Plugs' which are only $80.
