XtoysToosh Black Silicone Butt Plug Small Review: A Gentle Starter
Editor's opinion
This is a small, gently tapered silicone plug designed to be approachable rather than challenging. It suits complete beginners and anyone who prefers a compact fit, though the jewelled base and silicone body ask for a little care in cleaning and lube choice.
The Toosh Black Silicone Butt Plug in small is the entry point of a three-size range, and it reads exactly as an introductory plug should: modest dimensions, a tapered tip and a body soft enough not to intimidate. The idea is to give a first-time user something manageable before deciding whether to size up.
What a buyer should weigh here is whether the size is right for them and whether the jewelled base suits how they intend to use it. Small can mean welcoming for a newcomer or underwhelming for someone with more experience, and the decorative base has practical implications worth thinking through.
The good and the bad
What works
- Genuinely beginner-friendly at 2.8 cm wide and 6.5 cm insertable
- Tapered tip and defined neck ease insertion and help it stay put
- Flared jewelled base for a comfortable, secure stop
- Soft silicone is body-safe and easy to keep clean
- Part of a range, so a clear upgrade path to medium and large
What to be aware of
- Silicone body rules out silicone-based lubricant
- Jewelled base needs careful cleaning around the setting
- Too modest for experienced users seeking more fullness
- Decorative jewel is less discreet than a plain flat base
Buy it if
Complete beginners to anal play and anyone who prefers a small, unintimidating plug that stays comfortably in place. It is also a sensible first step for those planning to work up through the medium and large in the range.
Skip it if
Experienced users after a fuller, weightier sensation should look at larger plugs or the medium and large in this range. Anyone who prefers a fully seamless, plain base for long wear may want a simpler flat-base design.
Design And Insertion
The shape is textbook beginner: a fine tapered tip that widens gradually to 2.8 cm, then narrows to a defined neck that helps the plug settle and stay in place. At 6.5 cm insertable it is short as well as slim, so it never asks for much depth.
The flared, jewelled base acts as the safety stop that every plug needs, sitting flush against the body. Because the widest point is modest, this is a plug you can take at your own pace rather than one that demands preparation.
Material And Finish
The body is smooth, soft silicone, which is body-safe, non-porous and one of the easier materials to keep hygienic. The important practical point is that silicone and silicone lubricant do not mix, so a water-based lubricant is the safe choice here.
The jewelled base gives it a decorative touch, which is part of the appeal but also worth a realistic thought: the jewel and its setting create a small crevice that needs attention when cleaning, and it is more eye-catching than a plain base if discretion matters.
Care And Cleaning
Wash before and after use with warm water and a suitable toy cleaner, paying particular attention to the area around the jewel where residue can gather. Let it dry fully before storing.
As with all silicone toys, stick to a water-based lubricant and apply plenty of it, going slowly on insertion. Store it away from other silicone items to keep the surface in good condition.
How It Compares
Against a plain flat-based starter plug, the Toosh trades a little discretion for the decorative jewel while keeping the same beginner-friendly dimensions. Against the medium and large in its own range, the small is clearly the gentlest, which is exactly the point of buying it first.
If you already own or feel comfortable with something of this size, the honest answer is that it will not feel like a step up. Its value lies in being approachable, not in delivering fullness.
The bottom line
As a first plug, the Toosh small does the sensible things well: a gentle taper, a modest width and a secure flared base, all in an easy-care silicone. Buy it if you are starting out or genuinely prefer compact; look to the larger sizes or a fuller design if you want more sensation.
Frequently asked questions
Is this a good choice for a complete beginner?
Yes. At 2.8 cm wide and 6.5 cm insertable, with a tapered tip and a flared base, it is one of the gentler options and is designed to be approachable rather than demanding. Use plenty of water-based lubricant and take your time.
What lubricant should I use with it?
A water-based lubricant. The silicone body means silicone-based lubricant should be avoided, as it can degrade the surface over time. Apply generously and reapply as needed.
How do I clean it, especially around the jewel?
Wash with warm water and a suitable toy cleaner before and after each use, taking extra care around the jewel setting where residue can collect. Allow it to dry fully before storing.
Will it stay in place comfortably?
The defined neck below the widest point is designed to help it settle, and the flared jewelled base acts as a stop against the body. The modest size means it should sit comfortably rather than feeling demanding.
Should I buy the medium or large instead?
If you are new to plugs or prefer something compact, start with the small. The medium and large in the range are the natural next steps once you are comfortable and want a fuller sensation.
