This is an extremely large plug; there is no doubt about it! This plug is not for a novice. I like all the stainless plugs. They're definitely my favorites. They're very smooth and not grabby at all. My husband is very fond of them too!

If we're going to have anal intercourse, we start with the large-sized stainless plug, and after a couple orgasms he replaces it with this one. It definitely takes a bit to get it in and usually feels like it won't fit at first but after some deep breaths it always goes in. The trick is to relax, breathe out and don't tense up! I will say that the ridges on this one make it a tiny bit more uncomfortable for insertion than the other sizes, which are smooth all the way around. My husband has a theory that the ridges allow the lube to get worked in further than the smooth ones, which I can't disagree with.

After 10 minutes or so of intercourse (and at least one orgasm) with the 2.0 in, I'm ready for my husband and it makes the real thing so easy and pleasurable. When the 2.0 is in, my husband enjoys how full it makes me feel. With the smaller one, he said he can feel it move left or right as he thrusts. With this one, he said it stays put and he's the one who moves around it, which I think is funny. We also like how easy to clean they are, but be careful not to drop them on any of your surfaces or porcelain sinks!

This toy is not cheap, so I would probably recommend one of the smaller ones unless you're confident that you'll stick with it and work up to this one. It takes some "training", as we call it.
