Inflatable Butt Plugs

An inflatable butt plug has an air chamber that is connected by a tube to a squeeze bulb. Once the slim, deflated plug is in place, squeezing the bulb fills it gradually, so the wearer chooses how full it feels. A valve on the tube lets the air out again before removal.

What to compare

• The deflated length and the size of the narrowest and widest points
• A flared base so the plug cannot slip inside
• The valve and the pump: they should be easy to use and release smoothly
• The material, as stated on each listing
• Extras, such as a vibrating unit

Is an inflatable plug right for a beginner?

The range of sizes is wide, which makes inflatable plugs better suited to people who already use ordinary plugs and know their limits. If you are new, start with a small, non-inflatable plug first.

Inflating and removing safely

Use plenty of water-based lubricant. Practise pumping and releasing the valve outside the body first so you know how it works. Inflate gently, one squeeze at a time, and stop at the first sign of discomfort. Always deflate fully before removal, never leave the plug inflated for long or while asleep, and keep the base outside the body at all times.
