Why I did not purchase this plug a couple of years ago is still beyond my understanding but I am now somewhat regretting that I did not. After using several different types of butt plugs from Eden in various sizes and materials, I have found that the Plug of Lust Large would have been great for me in my earlier anal adventures. This particular plug manufactured by Orion also has a smaller version of the plug for beginner's who are just starting out.

With a fair amount of experience in using plugs and now also using the Plug of Lust Large, I would have to say this seems more suited for beginners looking to advance into an intermediate stage. More specifically someone just starting out in anal will most likely find this plug not practical for them; but a beginner that is looking to move into a more experienced level (intermediate) could really find this plug helpful in facilitating in their advancement. At the same time, I found this plug still useful and enjoyable even though I consider myself fairly advanced in the anal department. So a wide variety of users can enjoy this plug and find it useful for a long time before really out-growing it.

Using the Plug of Lust Large is pretty simple and straight-forward. You will want to use only water-based lubricant and apply a small amount at first. The tip on this plug is designed for easy insertion making the rest of the plug easier to insert and control. If you know your limits and boundaries then just about anyone can use and enjoy this plug. The base is large and firm enough to be safe for anal use, however advanced users and experts should take caution for accidental slippage inside. The looped handle on the underside of the base is great for easy removal of the plug and shouldn't be an issue for long term wear while sitting down. Because it is made of silicone it will take extreme heat and cold for temperature play. I'd say you could definitely use this solo or with a partner, again the loop handle aids in this.

Overall I don't see many safety concerns with this product, as noted the more experienced users should take caution with the base, it is 1 7/8" wide so if you can take toys much larger you should be careful. This plug makes a great warm up plug to use something larger, I also kind of enjoy the fact it is not long so those who enjoy stretch but not deep penetration will like this one. It's doubtful you will get any P-spot pleasure from this plug however. I suppose you could also tie string or a fake tail to the loop on the base for something different and easy removal if there are any accidents. This is definitely a good quality average plug for the average person.

This is my first toy from the Manufacturer Orion and being made of silicone I was not sure what to expect. Generally I go with Doc Johnson and Tantus toys for their 100% premium-grade silicone. The Plug of Lust Large states that it is 100% silicone and that's it. There are no real details on the material so I am going to have to take the companies word that it is truly is 100% silicone. But based on overall use and not smelling odors and the general feel of the material makes me believe it is silicone.

100% silicone material is body safe and free of chemicals, toxins, phthalates and latex. Generally it is odorless however most silicone toys including this one come with a slight odor to begin with. It is nothing really unpleasant and is very light, usually it dissipates after a couple of washes. Also the material is hypo-allergenic and non-porous making it very safe in terms of hygiene and cleaning. As stated earlier, you will want to only use water-based lubricant with this material.

Over time I have used a lot of silicone toys of various sizes, shapes and from different companies but I would have to say this one is by far the most luxurious feeling. The feel of the material is velvety smooth, there are seams from where it was molded, those have been cut and possibly filled in and smoothed down so you won't feel them during use. There is some give and flexibility to the plug, however overall it is firm with only a slight squish feel to it. If you like smooth gliding textures I think you will enjoy this material, it is different than Doc Johnson and Tantus toys I have used that have more of a drag feel to them.

At first I wasn't sure how I felt about the design of this plug with the looped handle on the underside of the base. While it works great as a handle to remove the plug, I thought it would interfere with long term wear and sitting down with the plug. However, because the looped handle is very flexible it sort of squishes and bends down and does not seem to make me feel uncomfortable or experience pain while sitting down.

There was also a concern with the base, I thought perhaps I would have problems of accidental slippage, but the base is firm and large enough to prevent this. Overall the plug seems very nicely designed and friendly for the majority of most users. The neck is short, which personally was not a problem for me, but might not allow the bulge of the plug to insert far enough for some users. Sadly the plug is available only in the white cloudy color, it is not a pure solid white, but rather milky white that some light will glow through at the tip and neck. It would be nice to see more color selection.

If you are generally a person who likes a plug with plenty of length then I don't think you will enjoy this one as much. The insertable length is around 3 inches, which I find nice as a warm up plug, after all not everyone enjoys deep penetration. The plug is pretty small in general which I could compare it to the size of a small to medium sized cell phone. Despite its smaller size, it is quite comfortable and filling, while I like to use larger toys, this is a good warm up plug or if I’m just in the mood for something smaller. I find that the extended tip on the plug makes it easier to insert the plug. As mentioned by other reviewers it looks like a pacifier, however this plug is not discreet so unless you want someone to see it, I'd hide it. It is definitely small enough to travel with though, this is a bonus.

When I first opened the package up and held the plug in my hand I was somewhat expecting something larger. So I was slightly worried that I would only use this a couple of times and let it collect dust. Well to my surprise for its small size it is actually a nice butt plug. I have various other plugs and I would consider this plug probably my smallest one. I have found it most useful when I am not really in the mood for a large stretch or deep penetration. This makes for a nice average sized plug that provides a decent stretch but not being uncomfortable to use while walking, or long term wear.

While I might find the plug comfortable to sit down with, I would think that some people will not like it. I think you really just need to experiment with it and find your comfort zones. I guess I really don't have any complaints about the plug and how it performs and its design. The looped handle is a nice addition for easier removal of the plug without getting your fingers messy. I find this to be a fairly user-friendly plug that performs better than I had anticipated originally.

Because it is made of 100% silicone the plug is really easy to clean. You can boil it in water for 3 minutes to fully disinfect it, wipe it down in a 10% bleach solution or with toy wipes/cleaner, hand wash with anti-bacterial soap and water or even just put it in your dishwasher on the top rack. Lots of easy options in cleaning this type of toy and material, I generally just use the hand wash method myself and pat dry. What surprised me the most is that this silicone plug does not really attract lint like I thought it would. I have experienced Doc Johnson and Tantus silicone toys and they all are major lint magnets (at least the ones I ordered), but not the Plug of Lust Large!

Storing the plug is super easy as you can use the clam-shell packaging that it comes with if you like. Otherwise you can put it in your favorite toy box, but I recommend putting it in a small zip lock bag to protect it from toy melting. I would recommend using only water-based lubricant, using other types especially silicone-based can cause permanent damage to the material. Always do a test patch on a part of the toy that will not be inserted to be sure of any damage. I must say this has been the easiest toy (other than glass) that I have used for cleaning and storing.

Sitting inside the UPS box was the Plug of Lust Large in its plastic clam-shell packaging. It was pretty easy to open up and on the inside is an additional plastic stand that works as a holder for the plug. So I guess you could use this when you are using the plug as a stand to rest the plug on during playtime, or before.

I am fairly disappointed in the packaging overall; there are no use or care instructions and really no information at all. Really it just says "Plug of Lust" and mentions on the back that it is 100% silicone. The statement about the 100% silicone is also listed in multiple languages coded with an icon of the national flag. It is not discreet at all; it clearly tells you and shows you what it is, with a naked woman on the front, although you don't actually see any nudity expect a partial butt-cheek.

Minus the packaging and the size, I have to rate this 5 stars. Overall I do feel in comparing it to some of the better more well-known companies that this comes close to be of the same quality. The material does not collect lint like other silicone toys I have used which is a huge bonus for me. I had a recent situation in which a toy was such a major lint magnet I could not keep it clean at all. It's design, shape and size makes it ideal for so many different people which cover a larger customer base. I found it enjoyable to use, but not my absolute favorite but still a keeper and one I will continue to use.

I think what would make this product more popular and enjoyable is a selection of colors and a larger size up from this. Also I wanted to add again that while in my experience I found this okay for long term wear including sitting down, that not everyone will enjoy this. Most likely intermediate users will find this ring uncomfortable and distracting for long term wear. Finally I'd like to say this is a great price really for this plug especially if you can get a 20-30% discount on it, very inexpensive.
