Features

The Plush intermediate by California Exotic is a more sophisticated butt plug design for those ready to move beyond the standard classic anal plugs for some more intense backdoor fun. I think the rating of intermediate is quite appropriate as it might be a bit more than the beginner is ready to experience but definitely a toy to delight the experienced anal player. Modestly priced at under $20, I think it is a great value for a very high quality anal sex toy. This toy creates pleasingly powerful sensations of both dilation and fullness.

Design

The Plush intermediate is a well designed butt plug that is soft and comfortable. Crafted of gentle phthalate-free Futurotic material, it warms quickly to body temperature and has a soft and velvety feel. Featuring a rounded ball tip that slips in easily and three graduated bulges, this plug will take your anal play to the next level by providing progressively more stimulation as you gradually insert it.

The Plush intermediate butt plug also features a sturdy suction-cup base which among other things serves effectively as a “flange” to meet the safety requirements of toys designed for anal use. The base design makes this a great choice for solo play and has an open channel at the bottom which can been used to enhance the toy with insertion of a thin bullet type vibrator.

A total of 6 inches in length, the Plush™ intermediate provides 5 inches of pleasing insertable length. Whenever using an anal toy longer than 4 inches you want to be certain that it is flexible so that the toy will follow the natural curve of the anal canal. This toy certainly measures up and while stiff enough for effortless insertion, the material it is constructed of offers ample flexibility that does allow it to conform with ease to the body.

Anal toys are among my favorites as I certainly do enjoy the delight of the dilation experience and the feelings of fullness produced. Penetration of the anus, an area that is sensitive and rich with nerve endings, feels good and offers an intensely erotic experience due to both the physical sensations as well as it just feels wonderfully naughty and forbidden.

Even though I'm a fairly experienced backdoor player, out of the package I could see that the Plush intermediate plug would certainly be the largest anal toy I had ever tried. So I began by first inserting one of my favorite anal toys, a straight glass dildo as a warm up. I was soon ready to then boldly go where my bottom had never been before. The rounded ball tip slipped in easily and then I began working the three graduated bulges inside from small to large until the toy was fully inserted. The sensations produced as my anal muscles yielded to plug and then gripped one bulge at a time during the act of penetration felt exquisitely pleasurable. Once fully seated, the soft and pliable plug was delightfully comfortable and I could definitely feel it had penetrated some uncharted territory.

I do think that you need a good amount of experience with smaller plugs before stepping up to this one given its length and diameter so I wouldn't rate this as a beginner toy. For the truly experienced anal player, this plug certainly will not disappoint. While I have yet to try it myself, the manufacturer points out that the toy can be enhanced by sliding a small bullet style vibrator (not included) into the recessed channel under the base. I was more than pleased with the performance of this toy and have no reservations about recommending it to others who enjoy anal play. I'm sure it will be a personal favorite of mine for years to come.

Who Should Buy It

I think those with at least a moderate amount of experience with backdoor play will find this toy ideal. I think it definitely is rated as an intermediate toy and not designed for beginners.
