XtoysToosh Gold Metal Butt Plug Review: Medium Pink Stone
Editor's opinion
This is a medium metal plug with a decorative gold finish and a pink-stone base, built for people who like a solid, weighty sensation and want the option of temperature play. The main things to weigh are the 3.4 cm width, which is more than an absolute first-timer usually wants, and the fact that hard metal is unforgiving compared with silicone.
Metal plugs occupy a distinct corner of the butt plug world. Where silicone gives and cushions, metal stays firm and carries real weight, and that difference is the whole point for the people who choose it. The Toosh Gold Metal adds a decorative angle with its gold finish and pink jewelled base, so it is aiming to be pleasing to look at as well as to wear.
At 8.2 cm total, 7 cm insertable and 3.4 cm at its widest, this sits squarely in the medium bracket. The 86g weight and non-porous surface are the headline facts, and both shape who this is genuinely right for. The questions worth asking are whether the width suits your experience level and whether you actively want that heavier, harder feel.
The good and the bad
What works
- Non-porous aluminium alloy that wipes clean and works with any lubricant
- Genuine temperature play: warm or cool it before use for an extra dimension
- Weighty 86g body gives the firm, present sensation metal fans look for
- Flared base with a decorative pink stone that stays visible when worn
- Tapered tip to guide insertion despite the firm material
What to be aware of
- At 3.4 cm wide it is more than a nervous first-timer usually wants to start with
- Hard metal does not flex or give, so it is less forgiving than silicone
- The 86g weight can feel like a lot during longer wear, especially when moving around
Buy it if
People who already know they enjoy a firm, weighty plug and want the option of temperature play, plus anyone who likes a decorative jewelled base on show. It also suits confident newcomers who prefer metal's simplicity and easy cleaning.
Skip it if
Absolute beginners who have never used a plug should consider starting narrower and in flexible silicone, which forgives more. Anyone who wants a soft, cushioned feel or plans very long wear may prefer a lighter silicone design.
Design and materials
The body is aluminium alloy with a smooth, polished gold finish and a pink stone set into the flared base. Being metal, it is completely non-porous, which means bacteria have nowhere to hide and cleaning is straightforward. The surface has no seams or soft give, so what you feel is uniform, hard and cool to the touch until it warms to the body.
The 86g weight is central to the appeal. A metal plug feels present in a way silicone never does, and that heft is exactly what draws people to this category. The flip side is that the same weight and rigidity make it less accommodating, so the fit of the 3.4 cm width matters more than it would in a flexible toy.
Size and who it suits
With 7 cm of insertable length and a 3.4 cm maximum width, this is a medium plug. The tapered tip helps ease it in, but the widest point is a firm, unyielding 3.4 cm, and metal does not compress the way silicone does. That combination makes it a sensible step for someone building confidence rather than a true first purchase.
If you have used plugs before and are comfortable at this girth, the medium size is versatile. If you are entirely new, a narrower silicone plug is the gentler starting point, and you can move to metal once you know how a given width feels.
Temperature play and lubricant
Because it is solid metal, this plug holds temperature well. Resting it in warm water or cooling it beforehand adds a sensation you cannot get from body-safe silicone, and it is one of the strongest reasons to choose metal. Always test the temperature against your wrist first so it is comfortable before use.
The non-porous surface is compatible with water-, silicone- and oil-based lubricants, which is a genuine advantage: with a silicone toy you would have to avoid silicone lube, but here you can use whatever you prefer. Given the firm material, use plenty of it.
Care and cleaning
Cleaning is one of metal's clear wins. Wash with warm water and a suitable toy cleaner, then dry thoroughly before storing. The polished surface has no crevices beyond the setting around the stone, so pay a little attention there.
Store it where it will not knock against harder objects that could mark the finish, and keep the jewelled base clean and dry to keep it looking its best.
The bottom line
The Toosh Gold Metal is a well-judged medium plug for people who understand that they want metal's firm weight and the temperature play that comes with it. If that describes you and 3.4 cm is a comfortable width, it is easy to recommend; if you are brand new or want something soft and yielding, start elsewhere and come back to metal later.
Frequently asked questions
Is this plug suitable for a complete beginner?
It can suit a confident newcomer, but at 3.4 cm wide and in hard, unyielding metal it is not the gentlest first plug. If you have never used one, a narrower silicone plug is a kinder starting point, after which this medium size is a natural next step.
What lubricant should I use with it?
Any type. Because the aluminium alloy is non-porous, it is compatible with water-, silicone- and oil-based lubricants, so you can choose whichever you prefer. Given the firm material, apply plenty.
How do I use it for temperature play?
Rest it in warm water to warm it or cool it beforehand for a cooler sensation. Always check the temperature against your wrist first to make sure it is comfortable before use.
How do I clean and store it?
Wash with warm water and a suitable toy cleaner, paying attention to the setting around the stone, then dry thoroughly. Store it where it will not knock against hard objects that could mark the gold finish.
Will the weight be uncomfortable during wear?
The 86g weight is a large part of the appeal for metal fans, giving a firm, present feel. During longer periods or a lot of movement, however, some people find that weight becomes noticeable, so it suits shorter or seated wear better than a light silicone plug.
