The moment I took it out of the box, I noticed the silky feel of the silicone and went "oooo" --- it's such a great texture. Not a lot of friction, but still lube up!

Since it's silicone, I used Wicked's Jelle (water-based anal lube), and that was a great pairing.

My second thought was, "wow, that looks bigger in person!" It's not the largest toy I've had back there, but it does look larger than the pictures to me (plus for me, but be aware!)

The plug itself is nice and firm, with just a little give. Feels sturdier than other silicone toys in a good way.

The T-shaped base is much more flexible (the ends of the T bend), though definitely still sturdy enough to be effective for anal use. After a little adjustment, the base doesn't get in the way and is comfortable. Have yet to try wearing during sex, but I'm hoping for a great DP experience :)

There was almost no smell at all to the toy, until after first use. I was fairly clean back there, but it really held on to the smell. I've tried several rounds with soap and a toy cleaner, as well as airing it out. The good news is a few days of airing it outdid the job! I haven't tried boiling, dishwasher, or vinegar as a way to get the smell out quicker.

Since this is my first silicone anal toy, I can't say whether it is any better or worse than other silicone plugs with the smell.

So far, a mixed bag for me. I've worn it twice around the house but no sex yet because I like to explore toys on my own before using them with my partner.

Background:
I find anal enjoyable and easy in general and was disappointed by the smaller plugs my partner got in a starter kit: I didn't feel much on insertion, and they either came out during sex or got in the way. I also found out that I do not enjoy long anal toys (it's all about the girth for me!)

I really enjoy moderately intense anal toys like the discontinued glass double-dare, with nubs and just under 2 inches at it's widest (https://www.edenfantasys.com/dildos/double-ended-dildos/double-dare?pnid=75699024) and was hoping to combine the intensity of a larger toy with the convenience of a plug that would stay put.

The good:
Insertion is pleasant and, for me, doesn't require warm-up with another toy. There's a smooth transition from a small tip. I like to thrust the first half in and out a few times before fully inserting, both for safety and because mmm that nice stretch.

The less good:
I can't tell if plugs are not for me, it will take time to enjoy them more, or if I need a different one.
The tip that makes it easy to insert goes just a little far in for comfort, and it feels kind of pokey inside. Instead of feeling stretched and full, I feel a combination of "yup, there's something in there, and it has a tip" + almost like I have to go to the bathroom.

As I sit here with it in for the second time, it's growing on me, so I'll update after trying it combined with sex and see if it does what I bought it for!
