XtoysToosh Silver Metal Butt Plug Review: Medium Weighted Plug
Editor's opinion
This is a smooth, weighted metal plug in the medium range, with a tapered tip, a broad safe base and a decorative red gem. It suits anyone who likes the firm, temperature-responsive feel of metal, but the rigid body and 3.4 cm width make it more of a step up than a genuine first plug.
Metal plugs occupy a particular corner of the market. They trade the soft give of silicone for a hard, polished surface and a noticeable weight, which some people find grounding and others find a little uncompromising. The Toosh Silver Metal Butt Plug is a medium example of the type, finished with a red jewelled base for those who like a decorative touch.
The key things to weigh here are the material and the dimensions. Aluminium alloy behaves very differently from body-safe silicone, and at 3.4 cm across this is a widening that rewards a bit of prior experience or a patient warm-up. Understanding both before you buy will tell you whether this is the right plug for you.
The good and the bad
What works
- Non-porous aluminium alloy that wipes clean easily
- Works with water, silicone and oil-based lubricants
- Holds temperature well for warming or cooling play
- Broad, flared base for secure, safe wear
- Decorative jewelled base with a neat finish
What to be aware of
- Rigid metal has no give, so precision and lubricant matter
- 3.4 cm width is more than an outright beginner needs
- The 86 g weight will not suit everyone during longer wear
- Metal conducts cold quickly and can feel sharp if not warmed first
Buy it if
People who already enjoy anal play and want the firm, weighted, temperature-responsive feel of a quality metal plug, plus anyone who likes the look of a jewelled base.
Skip it if
Complete beginners, who would be better served by a slim, tapered silicone plug with some flex before moving up to rigid metal at this width.
Design And Materials
The body is aluminium alloy with a polished, non-porous surface and a red gem set into the flared base. Non-porous is the important word here: it means the surface will not harbour bacteria the way porous materials can, and it cleans up quickly.
Because the material is rigid, the plug has no flex at all. That gives the reassuring solidity metal fans look for, but it also means the shape does the work rather than adapting to you, so the tapered tip and generous lubrication become more important than they would with a softer toy.
Shape, Fit And Weight
At 8.2 cm total with 7 cm insertable and a 3.4 cm widest point, this sits squarely in the medium range. The pointed tip helps ease things in, widening gradually to that 3.4 cm peak before the base holds it in place.
The 86 g weight is part of the appeal for many metal enthusiasts, giving a distinct sense of presence. It is worth being realistic, though: a hard, weighted plug is a different experience from a light silicone one, and it may feel like more than expected during extended wear.
Temperature Play
One genuine advantage of metal is that it holds temperature. Resting the plug in warm water or chilling it beforehand lets you introduce a gentle temperature element that silicone simply cannot offer.
A practical note: metal conducts quickly, so always test the temperature against your wrist before use. Straight from a cold drawer, rigid metal can feel unexpectedly sharp, and warming it a little makes insertion far more comfortable.
Lubricant And Cleaning
The non-porous metal surface is compatible with water, silicone and oil-based lubricants, which is a real convenience since it removes the usual silicone-toy restriction. For anal use, a generous, longer-lasting lubricant is sensible given there is no natural lubrication and the material has no give.
Cleaning is straightforward: wash with warm water and a suitable toy cleaner before and after use, then dry thoroughly to keep the finish and the jewel looking their best.
The bottom line
The Toosh Silver Metal Butt Plug is a well-specified medium metal plug for people who already appreciate the firm, weighted, temperature-friendly character of the material. If that describes you, the non-porous surface and lubricant flexibility make it easy to live with; if you are just starting out, begin with something slimmer and softer before graduating to rigid metal at this width.
Frequently asked questions
Is this butt plug suitable for beginners?
It is described as suitable for beginners and experienced users, but honestly the rigid metal body and 3.4 cm width make it a gentle step up rather than a first plug. Newcomers may prefer a slimmer, flexible silicone plug before trying weighted metal.
What lubricant can I use with it?
Because the aluminium alloy is non-porous, you can use water-, silicone- or oil-based lubricant. For anal use a thicker, longer-lasting lubricant is recommended, as metal has no give of its own.
How does the temperature play work?
Metal holds temperature well, so you can rest the plug in warm water to heat it or chill it beforehand. Always test it against your wrist first, since metal conducts quickly and can feel sharp when cold.
How do I clean and care for it?
Wash it with warm water and a suitable toy cleaner before and after use, then dry it thoroughly. The smooth, non-porous surface makes cleaning quick and helps keep the finish and the jewel looking their best.
Will the plug stay in place during wear?
The flared base is designed to keep it secure and prevent it from moving too far, which is the essential safety feature for any anal toy. That same base also carries the decorative red gem.
