This anal plug is fantastic for anal play beginners. Its smooth design make for very easy insertion-relax, breathe, and use a water-based lube, first-timers! The stem is also very small, which makes it comfortable for extended wear as well. Let's also not forget about the base; it's oval, and runs parallel to your butt crack instead of perpendicular. I find this makes inserting, wearing, and removing so much less cumbersome.

This little butt plug is made from smooth, slick stainless steel, so there's absolutely no smell. As far as taste, it's of course, slightly metallic. I generally don't 'lick before I stick' though, so this is a non-issue for me. There are absolutely no seams or awkward surfaces on this guy, so insertion is smooth and easy. For being the smallest in the line, this little guy is definitely weighty. You know it's there, and you won't be forgetting about it anytime soon. I personally like the weight; I find it makes long-term wear a lot easier.

This little guy is a design marvel. From the packaging that it comes in- a beautiful black box with pink satin lining- to the toy itself, its lines and curves had me from the get-go.

I feel that this butt plug was specifically made to fit my butt; from the curve to the shape of the bulb to the shape of the base. This plug is very comfortable for me to wear, and I'm definitely no expert when it comes to anal play. In fact, this is the first butt plug I've ever owned. I'd experimented before with butt plugs, but I always just felt like i was being jabbed by an unforgiving finger or three. Not so with the NJOY. Like I said before, the curve has got to be it. Because of the angle of the curve, this little steel wonder gently massages my g-spot through the wall of my vagina. I would imagine that this would do the same for lots of other ladies out there as well. Because of this lovely massaging motion, simply inserting this plug keeps me turned on and aroused the entire time I wear it. No joke. And wear it I do! I've been able to wear it for hours at a time during the day, through long self-love sessions, and during partnered sex.

Now, I know everyone's anatomy is different, but because of the way this plug is curved, it rubs my g-spot in the most delightful of manners. Of course, the stimulation isn't super intense. But it is enough to keep me turned on as long as I've got this little guy in place. I love wearing this while being penetrated; the g-spot stimulation is exponentially stronger. A word to super new beginners, though. Having a butt plug in place while being penetrated is a very, shall we say, "filling" experience. The sensation may become too intense for some. Just listen to your body. You'll know when enough is enough.

Removal of this guy can be a little tricky sometimes. If there's too much lube on the base, it becomes difficult to remove. Just make sure to clean it off, relax, and breathe. Sometimes bearing down just slightly will help ease removal. Take your time. I will say, had I known that the small was as small as it is, I probably would have gotten the medium. The small is extremely easy to use and get used to. So for those of you out there who are more intermediate, I'd definitely suggest the next size up.

Taking care of this toy is incredibly easy. Stainless steel is compatible with all types of lube, but for anal play, water-based lube is considered to be the safest. The lining of the rectum absorbs just about anything, so using something that's as neutral as possible. Some folks prefer silicone, some folks like oil. None of that is going to harm this toy.

Cleaning can be done in multiple ways since it's made of surgical steel. Washing with anti-bacterial soap and warm water is sufficient for solo play. If you're sharing, I'd suggest the dishwasher or boiling. You can also use a 10% bleach solution.

The box the NJOY comes in makes for a great storage case, though it is a bit big for the size of the toy. The packaging is discreet if stacked, though, so you could leave it out around the house, in theory.
