Butt Plugs & Anal Plugs

Butt Plugs for Every Level and Every Fantasy

Small and Beginner Butt Plugs

If this is your first time, start with a small butt plug. Beginner plugs are slim, usually 2 to 3 cm wide at the widest point, with a smooth tapered tip that makes insertion easy. Soft, body-safe silicone is the most comfortable material to start with. Many people begin with a slim plug and slowly move up in size as they get more relaxed and confident.

Butt Plug Sets and Anal Training Kits

A butt plug set contains two, three or four plugs in increasing sizes. This is the easiest and most affordable way to find your perfect size and to train step by step, from small to medium to large. Sets are a popular first purchase for couples who want to explore anal play together.

Large and XL Butt Plugs

Large butt plugs are for experienced users who enjoy an intense feeling of fullness and stretching. They are wider, often heavier, and have a strong flared base. Only move up to a large plug once you are fully comfortable with smaller sizes, and always use plenty of thick anal lube.

Vibrating and Remote-Control Butt Plugs

A vibrating butt plug adds powerful vibrations to the feeling of fullness. Many are rechargeable and waterproof, and some come with a wireless remote or an app, so your partner can control the speed and pattern, even from across the room. Vibrating anal plugs are a favourite for couples and for wearing during sex.

Jewelled and Fun Butt Plugs

Jewelled butt plugs have a sparkling gem in the base, in many colours and shapes. They are usually made from smooth metal or silicone and are perfect for a sexy surprise, for photos or for wearing under lingerie. Other fun designs include hollow tunnel plugs, plugs with tails and plugs with a suction cup base for hands-free play.

Butt Plugs for Men

Butt plugs are not just for women. In men, a plug presses gently on the prostate, the “male G-spot”, which can make orgasms feel deeper and more intense. Some plugs are shaped with a curve especially for this. If you want targeted prostate stimulation, take a look at our prostate massagers. For longer, deeper penetration, see our anal dildos.

How to Choose the Right Material and Size

Butt Plug Materials

• Silicone: soft, smooth, non-porous and body-safe. The best all-round choice, especially for beginners. Use it with water-based or anal lube, not with silicone lube.
• Metal and aluminium: firm, sleek and heavier, which many people love for the extra feeling of weight. Non-porous, easy to clean and great for temperature play.
• Glass: very smooth, firm and completely non-porous. You can warm or cool a glass plug in water before use. See our metal and glass toys.
• TPE and jelly: soft and affordable, good for trying things out. These materials are slightly porous, so wash them well, or use a condom over the plug.

The Shape: Tip, Bulb, Neck and Base

A good butt plug has four parts. The tapered tip makes insertion easier. The bulb is the widest part and gives the feeling of fullness. The narrow neck is where the muscles close around the plug, so it stays in place comfortably. The flared base keeps the plug outside the body. Important: never use any toy for anal play that does not have a flared base or suction cup.

Butt Plug Size Guide

• Small / beginner: about 2 to 3 cm wide.
• Medium: about 3 to 4 cm wide, for people who already enjoy anal play.
• Large / XL: over 4 cm wide, for experienced users only.

The width of the bulb matters much more than the length. If you are not sure, choose the smaller size or a set with several sizes.

Safe, Comfortable Anal Play Step by Step

How to Use a Butt Plug

Take your time and make sure you are relaxed and aroused. Apply plenty of lube to the plug and around the anus. Breathe out slowly and gently press the tip in, then wait a moment and let your muscles relax before going further. Once the bulb passes, the plug will settle into place at the neck. It should never hurt: if you feel pain, stop, add more lube or try a smaller size. To remove it, relax, hold the base and pull it out slowly.

Which Lube to Use

The anus does not produce its own lubrication, so lube is essential. A thicker anal lube lasts longer and makes everything more comfortable. Use water-based or anal lube with silicone plugs. Silicone lube works well with metal and glass plugs.

How Long Can You Wear a Butt Plug?

Beginners should start with 10 to 20 minutes and build up slowly. Many experienced users wear a plug for an hour or longer, but always listen to your body and remove it if you feel any discomfort. Do not sleep with a butt plug in.

Cleaning and Storage

Wash your butt plug before and after every use with warm water and mild unscented soap, or use a sex toy cleaner. Silicone, metal and glass plugs without a motor can also be boiled for a few minutes. Never move a plug from anal to vaginal use without washing it first. Store it in a clean pouch, away from other toys.
