XtoysToosh Gold Metal Butt Plug Large Review: Weighty and Jewelled
Editor's opinion
This is a substantial aluminium alloy plug with a decorative jewelled base and a genuine sense of weight. At 4cm wide it best suits people who already own something smaller, and its firm, unforgiving metal body is a very different experience from soft silicone.
The Toosh Gold Metal Butt Plug in its large size sets out to combine two things people look for in metal toys: a reassuring heft that helps a plug settle into place, and a smooth non-porous surface that is simple to keep clean. The clear jewelled base adds a decorative touch for those who like it.
The main thing to weigh is size and material together. At 4cm across the widest point this is not a starter plug, and metal has no give at all, so the taper does all the work of easing you there. That combination shapes who this will suit and who should build up to it first.
The good and the bad
What works
- Solid aluminium alloy that holds temperature for warm or cool play
- Non-porous surface wipes clean quickly and needs no batteries
- Works with water-, silicone- and oil-based lubricants alike
- Weighted 148g body helps it sit securely once in place
- Flared jewelled base keeps it safe and adds a discreet decorative touch
What to be aware of
- At 4cm wide it is a genuine step up, not a first plug
- Rigid metal has no flex, so insertion relies entirely on the taper
- The 148g weight can feel considerable during longer wear
- Jewelled base is a fitted stone rather than a claw setting, so treat it with care
Buy it if
People who already own a smaller plug and want to move up a size, and anyone drawn to the heft and easy cleaning of metal along with temperature play.
Skip it if
Complete newcomers to anal play, who would do better starting with a slim silicone plug around 2.5 to 3cm wide and building up before reaching for something this substantial.
Design And Materials
The body is aluminium alloy with a gold-effect finish and a clear jewelled base. Metal brings two clear advantages: it is entirely non-porous, so nothing soaks into the surface, and it carries real weight, here 148g, which many people find helps a plug feel settled and secure.
The trade-off is that metal is completely rigid. Unlike silicone it will not flex or yield, so the whole job of easing insertion falls to the pointed tip and the gradual taper. That is fine once you are used to the width, but it is why size matters so much with a plug like this.
Shape And Fit
Total length is 9.5cm with 8.2cm insertable, and the widest point is 4cm. The pointed tip and tapering body are designed to ease you gradually to that widest measurement, after which the neck narrows and the base holds everything in place.
Four centimetres is a sizeable width. The brand describes it as suitable for beginners and experienced users alike, but read that critically: this is best understood as a step up for someone already comfortable with smaller sizes. A wide base is essential for safe use, and this one delivers, keeping the plug secure and making removal straightforward.
Temperature Play
Because metal conducts and holds temperature, you can warm the plug in warm water or cool it before use for an added dimension of sensation. This is one of the real appeals of a metal toy over silicone.
Always test the temperature against the inside of your wrist or skin first. Metal can hold heat and cold more intensely than you expect, so a moment of checking prevents any unpleasant surprise.
Lubricant And Cleaning
A clear practical benefit of metal over silicone is lubricant freedom: you can use water-, silicone- or oil-based lubricants without worrying about degrading the surface. With any rigid, non-flexing plug a generous amount of lubricant makes a real difference to comfort.
Cleaning is quick. The smooth surface rinses under warm water with a suitable toy cleaner. Take a little care around the jewelled base so water does not sit behind the stone, and dry it fully before storing.
How It Compares
Against a silicone plug of the same width, this Toosh trades softness and give for weight, temperature play and lubricant flexibility. Silicone is more forgiving for newcomers; metal rewards those who already know they enjoy the sensation of something firm and weighted.
Among metal plugs, the jewelled base puts it in the decorative category rather than the plain functional one. If the ornamental stone is not a draw, a plain metal plug does the same job; if you like the look, this delivers it while keeping the safe flared base intact.
The bottom line
If you already enjoy anal play and want to move up to a weighted, easy-clean metal plug with a decorative finish, this is a sensible and versatile choice. Newcomers should build up with something smaller and softer first, but for the right buyer the heft, hygiene and temperature options make a strong case.
Frequently asked questions
Is this plug suitable for beginners?
At 4cm wide it is better seen as a step up than a first plug. Complete newcomers would be more comfortable starting with a slimmer silicone plug and working up to this width once confident.
What lubricant should I use with it?
Because it is aluminium alloy rather than silicone, you can use water-, silicone- or oil-based lubricants. With a rigid metal plug, using plenty of lubricant makes insertion far more comfortable.
How do I clean it?
Rinse under warm water with a suitable toy cleaner. The non-porous surface wipes clean easily. Take a little care around the jewelled base and dry it fully before storing.
How does temperature play work?
Metal holds temperature, so you can warm the plug in warm water or cool it before use. Always test it against your skin first, as metal can hold heat and cold more intensely than expected.
Will the weight be a problem?
At 148g it has a noticeable heft that helps it stay in place, which many people enjoy. For longer wear that weight can feel considerable, so it comes down to personal preference.
