My verdict
I wish I could recommend these. They’re so cute, the texture is unique and stimulating, and the diamond on the tail is sexy. However, they’re definitely not a beginner butt plug, and as someone who’s familiar with anal toys, I wouldn’t choose these. The main issue is that the stem of the plug isn't tapered and is very small. Designers do this to ensure a snug fit for the plug. Given that there are three size options included in this kit, I don’t think a snug fit is a problem at all, which makes this design choice feel careless more than anything. No tapering on the stem means they glide in smoothly since the head is your typical shape, but they stretch you suddenly on the way out because the area resting in your entrance is considerably smaller than the end of the plug. So, if you’re just starting out with anal play, these will probably be an uncomfortable way to start. If they were silicone, they’d have a little more give and be gentler on the body. Metal is a hard medium to begin with and requires some time and practice to get used to. If you’re really comfortable with anal play and have used similar plugs, these might be great for you - ignore my issues with the stem design. My worry would be that a beginner would tear or get turned off from backdoor play entirely by them. Overall, I don't recommend these, but you know your body better than anyone.
Pros
Diamond on the end is really cute
The texture is interesting
Cons
Poor design
Design

These plugs are designed to look like diamonds, matching the sparkling gem in the handle. They’re made from durable aluminum alloy that’s easy to clean and maintain. The edges of each facet are smooth and reflect light like a disco ball. The only change I would make is tapering the end toward the handle to avoid tearing or unnecessary stretching. Luckily, you can use water-based or silicone lubricant with metal. I do not think these were truly designed with beginners in mind. They’re oversimplified and choose sparkle over comfort.

Experience

At first, I was really turned on by the metal; it was cool, textured, and really exciting. I started by using the smallest size with an oil-based lubricant. I usually stick to silicone plugs, so this was a fun experiment. I put the medium plug in the fridge for added sensation, it cooled down quickly and I sized up. You definitely have to use lubricant anytime you pick up an anal toy, and I think especially with metal plugs. Silicone has more give and glides easier, and it works with your body. On the other hand, your body has to fit around metal, which took some getting used to. Both plugs glided in easily, my first problem came with retrieving the small plug, this is when I noticed the issue with the stem. Once the medium plug was inserted, I forgot all about my problems and had some fun. I usually like to move them around a little to apply more pressure or change stimulation, but the large round handle didn’t make this easy. Also, because of the thin stem connecting the plug to the handle, they’re uncomfortable to pull in and out. Honestly, taking the medium-sized one out at the end of my session was painful. It felt fine going in because of the taper, but the stem is missing that. Possibly, with more practice, this can feel better and even good, but I didn’t like it and that experience was enough to turn me off from these plugs entirely.

Quality

The materials feel high quality and easy to maintain. They’re made of strong, durable aluminum alloy, giving them a nice weight that heightens sensation.

Price

Priced at $30, these are in the low range of your typical beginner butt plug set. I imagine it's because of their material and simplicity. If that’s your jam, they’re a great buy.

Performance

Practice and lube make perfect with these plugs. If you plan to wear them longer than 30 minutes, try silicone plugs instead, as they are gentler on your body.

Packaging

The box they come in is sleek and black, very discreet. There's a foam mold inside the box that holds them in place. Overall, it’s a cute little packing/storage box.

Materials and care

Made with durable metal, these plugs can easily be washed using antibacterial soap and hot water.

  • Plus One Dual Vibrating Arc: Full of Surprises

    The Dual Vibrating Arc from Plus One features a simple, sleek design that packs a punch. For once, a ‘personal massager’ that is actually lovely to use on your back and between your legs. The curved design and soft silicone fit comfortably in my hand while providing targeted internal stimulation. With two size options and multiple speeds, the Dual Vibrating Arc is perfect for finding the g-spot and p-spot, making it a gender-inclusive toy. Strong vibrations and ergonomic hold make this an excellent option for clitorial or external play, as well. The toy’s length made playing on my back and stomach easy. However, the toy did let me down a little. The shape of the arch doesn’t allow for simultaneous dual stimulation. While only one side vibrates at a time - already a little disappointing - the vibrations are so strong they made my hand tingle - not a bad thing, but not the most comfortable for longer play.

  • Confusing Magic: the Ava VIVV Massage Wand

    The VIVV Massage Wand by Ava is an adorable, humbly sized vibrating wand with a flexible neck for precision pressure and pleasure. The high-quality, soft, silicone ribbed head adds an unexpected dimension to vibrations. However, the diagonal ribbing on the handle makes finding the buttons difficult and can turn an attempt to adjust intensity or vibration pattern into a lost orgasm. Slightly making up for the confusing texture, the Ava VIVV features 20 vibration patterns and 8 intensities. I say ‘slightly’ because at least 10 of the 20 vibration patterns are redundant. Their slight differences offer the nuance needed for precise pleasure, and taking a few extra minutes to cycle through and find the right one isn’t the worst way to spend your time. The only other hitch in this device is that it resumes whatever intensity and pattern you used before when you turn it on. Sometimes, this is great. Other times, it’s nice to reset and start out easy.

  • Plus One Vibrating Bullet: Average Travel Size Vibes

    The Plus One Vibrating Bullet is a simple, easy to use, travel-size vibe. The no-frills, straightforward design gets the job done. This isn’t the first toy I’d pull out of my drawer, but it’s the backup I like knowing is there. Its size makes it great for partnered play, as it doesn’t get in the way and can easily be moved around. With only one button, getting confused or struggling to change settings is nearly impossible. The 10 vibration settings offer a range of intensities and patterns that are standard for most vibrators. Included in the box is a finger sleeve, which majorly elevates the experience and pleasure of the bullet. Soft, high-quality silicone makes this toy fully waterproof, allowing for shower play. Overall, this is a very average toy. It satisfies but doesn’t over-deliver.

  • Smooth and Beginner Friendly: Plus One’s Vibrating Wand

    The Plus One Vibrating Wand is smooth in every sense of the word. Suave, moderately powerful vibrations radiate from its broad, soft head with a flexible neck, giving you total control of where the vibes go and how much pressure they apply. Overall, I was satisfied with this toy - it doesn’t have the strength of other wands, but the cadence of the vibrations rolls instead of pounds, making this wand more sensual than most vibrators. It has 10 settings varying in intensity and pattern, is cordless, and fully waterproof. The silicone surrounding the toy is soft and feels nice in your hand as you maneuver the wand. It's a great first wand or vibrator, but I wouldn’t recommend it to experienced players looking for a new toy. For my taste, it was a little too simple. However, there really isn’t anything to complain about.

    Passion Pal Homie Review: Cutting Edge Fun

The flared base added an extra layer of security, ensuring that it stayed firmly in place even during more active moments. ​ However, the Homie really shines when paired with its app. The built-in vibrations are good, but the app brings a whole new level of control and customization, making it a much more dynamic experience, whether solo or with a partner. And with how quiet it is, it’s perfect for discreet use, even in public settings. While the battery life could be a bit longer, the quick charging time helps offset that issue.

    The Hanyunmy 16-inch Anal Trainer turned out to be a fantastic tool for enhancing my anal play experience. Its soft, flexible silicone and gradual bead design made insertion comfortable and allowed me to slowly increase depth and stretch my internal capacity. While it's not the largest trainer out there, it's perfect for anyone looking to explore longer toys and push their limits. ​The measurement guide etched into the silicone was a nice touch, making it easy to track my progress. The trainer’s ability to fold in on itself helped me go deeper without any discomfort, showing that it really does increase both depth and internal girth over time. Whether you're just starting out or looking to expand your horizons, the Hanyunmy 16-inch Anal Trainer is a great choice to explore new sensations and take your pleasure to the next level.

    Peanut Plug Set Review

    The SinSaint Peanut Plug Set truly offers something for everyone, from beginners to seasoned enthusiasts. The small, medium, and large sizes each provide unique experiences, allowing for a range of comfort and stimulation that caters to individual preferences. The small plug is an excellent starting point, offering a gentle introduction to anal play with its easy insertion and subtle presence. However, the thin and flexible material of the flared base along with its small diameter is slightly cause for concern. This size is one I would use for decoration or teasing and light stretching without leaving it in. For those seeking a bit more sensation, the medium plug strikes a balance between comfort and noticeable pressure, making it perfect for extended wear and daily activities. The large plug, while the most challenging to insert, delivers substantial pleasure and effective stretching, enhancing your readiness for more advanced play. ​Overall, the SinSaint Peanut plugs are well-crafted and versatile, blending comfort with pleasure. They are ideal for both pre-Funtime preparation and as standalone toys for those who enjoy a bit of stretch and stimulation. The final score was 70/90 giving the SinSaint Peanut Plug Set a rating of 7.5/10. If you're looking for reliable, enjoyable plugs that cater to different levels of experience, I would say the SinSaint Peanut series is definitely worth considering.

    B-Vibe Snug Plug 3 Review - Is it worth a buy?

    So, is it worth a buy? If you’re a beginner, absolutely! The reasonably priced Snug Plug 3 is a fantastic choice to start with. Its smooth, rounded edges make insertion a breeze, and the premium silicone ensures it feels great for long-term wear. The 180g weighted balls inside the plug add a unique sense of fullness that’s satisfying without being overwhelming, even for extended use. The thin neck helps the plug stay securely in place, so there’s no need to worry about it slipping out unexpectedly. However, it doesn’t offer much in the way of girth training, so keep that in mind. My one issue was the grip handle—it felt a bit too wide and was the first spot where I noticed any discomfort. For more experienced users, the Snug Plug 3 might feel a bit small, as it did for me. But the good news is that the Snug Plug series comes in seven sizes. You can start small and work your way up to the Snug Plug 7, which features a hefty 600g of weighted balls and a diameter of 2.5 inches!

    Hello Cake - Buzzy Butt Review!

    For those who enjoy anal stimulation, this plug is definitely an option to consider. The Hello Cake Buzzy Butt vibrating butt plug is made of body-safe silicone, and has a long T-shaped base, so it's quite easy to insert and pull out, the base also ensures there's no fear of the toy being sucked in too far. Hello Cake states that the toy can be used for both beginners and those with more experience, but I feel like it's a bit large for a beginner. Just like the company states, it's "not too small, not too big". It's also a bit long, reviewers mention that because of its length, it can stimulate the prostate quite easily. As a transgender man, I still enjoy the toy a lot! The toy is waterproof, so you can wear it practically anywhere. The toy does fit a bit snugly, hence why I don't see it as beginner friendly, but the T-shaped base definitely helps with this a lot. This toy can be ordered on the Hello Cake website, Amazon, or even in physical stores. To reach a full charge, the toy must charge for 120 minutes. When fully charged, it can be used for up to an hour on low vibrating speed, or around 45 minutes on higher speeds.
