I have had this toy for a long time. As a matter of fact, when I purchased this plug it was the only one of its kind on the market.

This could be a very fun and exciting toy for those new to anal or pony play. It also makes for a nice *light* flogger. On the other hand, it is very small for those experienced in anal play and will slip right out with much movement. It is made from good material; the rubber plug will not break down like some silicone products. It is firm and smooth with a tapered tip. It has a classic anal plug shape with a maximum diameter of 1" and a smaller neck with a flared base. This shape and size allows easy insertion and helps to keep the plug in place as the sphincter clamps down on the neck between the wider bulb and flared base.

The synthetic horse hair is a bit wiry, not much like horse hair at all. For those who are wanting the real horsetail look this is not going to do it for you. The tail points straight down when inserted and there is no real way to create a horse-like fall using this tail. The "hair" does not sway or bounce naturally when walking (or prancing).

In the flogging department, the synthetic horse hair is soft but stiff at the same time. This allows the experienced flogger to lightly tickle the floggee or snap with the tips to give a bit of a sting. Vigorous flogging is not recommended though as the hair will fall out.

The hair is held in with a silicone piece inserted into the base of the rubber plug that will break down with heavy use or chemical cleaners. This makes it a little difficult to clean because the rubber plug needs (and can handle) good disinfectant cleaners but the tail should be handled gently.

Overall - it is a fun little toy for the weekend fantasy players but is not for the heavy players and fetishists. There are now much better products on the market through specialty shops that are better suited to the fetish crowd, but they are going to cost you.

I played with this toy a few more times after my initial review, but I have since thrown it away. It was really not worth the frustration and disappointment.
