All the butt plugs we testedOut of all the vibrating butt plugs we’ve tested over the years, the B-Vibe Rimming Plug remains one of our top recommendations for all genders. It’s easy to see why B-Vibe has earned a reputation in the anal toy space; they’ve been refining their designs for nearly two decades. Their decision to blend rimming-like rotation with steady, hands-free vibration paid off, delivering a sensation that felt both inventive and satisfying. At $149, the performance and build quality make it feel like a smart buy rather than a splurge.

1. b-Vibe Rimming Plug: Our Overall Test Winner!

b-Vibe Rimming Plug Petite with the remote control

Why we love B-Vibe Rimming Plug

The designers of the B-Vibe Rimming Plug were obviously on a mission to bring a new sensation to anal play, and boy, did they deliver! From the moment you take it out of the box, you can’t help but notice how sturdy it feels in your hand, and it’s obvious that a lot of love was put into the creation of this wonderful anal toy.

“Many companies simply add a flared base to their regular vibrators without much thought to the design. And it’s not hard to tell! B-Vibe, however, specializes in anal pleasure,” our lead product tester, Sandra Larson, wrote in her test report. “And since anal is all they do, their products are exceptionally well-designed to hit all your sweet spots, regardless of gender,” Sandra added.

Closeup of the tapered tip

Our testers loved experimenting with the 9 vibration patterns and varying speeds, and adding the rimming beads into the mix was the cherry on top. The sensation isn’t to be confused with the sensation of an actual rim job, but we think it is pretty pleasurable nonetheless.

It takes up to two hours to charge the B-Vibe Rimming Plug via the magnetic charging port (our favorite kind of charger), and it lasted a whopping 4.5 hours on the lowest setting; well over the estimated battery life. The remote control was also intuitive, easy to use, and especially enjoyable to pass to my partner.

The device charging

Minor issues found during testing

Our main concern with the B-Vibe Rimming Plug is that there’s no option to control the vibrations and rimming separately. The rimming sensation can sometimes get lost in the sauce when the vibrations are on high, making it hard to pinpoint the sensation that makes this sex toy so unique.

It’s also worth mentioning that it’s splash-proof but not waterproof! Because of this, you cannot take it in the tub and should be careful not to submerge it when cleaning up. To be honest, not being able to fully submerge the rimming plug makes it a little difficult to clean.

2. Lovense Hush 2: Best App-Controlled!

Lovense Hush 2

Why we love Lovense Hush 2

If we’re talking high-tech butt plugs, the Lovense Hush 2 is definitely at the top of that list. With this unique vibrator, the sky is the limit. Or, more accurately, your creativity is the limit.

Whether you want to program into the app your favorite speed and vibration combinations to remember for later, sync your vibe to rumble along to your favorite song, or even pair multiple Lovense toys to the same device (hello, threesomes!), the Hush 2 has got you covered.

The device charging

Our reviewers also loved that you can choose between 4 sizes, ranging from XS for anal newbies to L for more experienced users. That is something that not many other companies are offering, and you typically just get a one-size-fits-all product.

“I bought the extra small model because smaller butt plugs are more comfortable, and the size ended up being just perfect,” says Rachel Sommer. “But if you’re a size queen, the large model definitely won’t disappoint!” She added.

The content of the box

If you decide to go for the largest size, you’ll also be blessed with an incredible 11-hour battery life! As well as a super easy-to-use magnetic charger for when the fun is finally over.

Finally, because this sex toy is controlled via Bluetooth instead of a standard remote control, it can be accessed from across the world. I used the smartphone app many times (screenshots below), both manually and remotely, and I never had connection problems.

Minor issues found during testing

A wifi connection is required to enjoy all the amazing features that this sex toy has to offer. Although you can use the button to cycle through the three intensity levels and the four patterns, all features require a wifi connection.

3. Lelo Hugo 2: Best For Prostate Stimulation!

Lelo Hugo 2

Why we love LELO Hugo 2:

From the moment we selected the LELO HUGO 2 for review, the team had a strong feeling it would deliver—and it did. This updated version improves on the original with a 20% more powerful motor and the option to control it using either a wireless remote or a mobile app. That flexibility made it more accessible for different play styles and helped it stand out for users who prefer intense, hands-free anal stimulation.

The design itself was one of the highlights. It stayed securely in place throughout testing and allowed for full mobility during use. “Once my husband inserted it, it stayed put while he moved around the house,” Sandra noted in her report. “He said wearing it during sex felt incredible, like the vibrations added a whole new layer of pleasure without needing to adjust anything mid-session.”

Lelo Hugo 2 and the remote control

Note: According to the website, Hugo 2 was redesigned to fit more bodies, but the changes are elusive to the eye. They look pretty much identical.

Something else that stood out was the impressive dynamism that lets you choose between regulating your anal toy with a remote control or a dedicated mobile application. It was a bit confusing at first because you can use both on one toy. The remote controller doesn’t let you control the motors separately, and the mobile app offers more capabilities, so we recommend using the latter.

Lelo Hugo 2 with all my other prostate massagers

The team rated the sensations on HUGO 2 as powerful and rumbly (my favorite). “People like my partner who dislike buzzy vibrations will be delighted by the maintained rumbles from the lowest to the highest standards,” our tester Angela Kempf wrote in her test report. “A combination of a powerful motor and consistently thuddy vibration patterns makes for the perfect cocktail for intense orgasms.”

We also appreciated that HUGO 2 had two motors for the perineum and prostate. The rumbles felt more impactful on the prostate end, but even the one targeting the perineum lining was more robust than your average vibrator. The best part about it is that the mobile application lets you regulate the vibrations independently for ultimate customization.

Pro Tip: While LELO HUGO Remote ticks all the boxes, it’s incompatible with the LELO app. You must buy HUGO 2 to enjoy the intuitive application. Unlike the remote control, you can hand over control to your lover from miles away. In addition, you can customize the sensations better and save your favorite patterns for later use.

Everything about the product’s build quality was a ‘chef’s kiss’. It felt flexible in the hands and cozy inside my partner’s backroom. The dimensions might not be ideal for a beginner, but intermediate and experienced folks will enjoy the challenge. We recommend building up with smaller models if you’re new to the experience.

The content of the box

The product is made from luxe silicone material paired with more rugged ABS plastic. Most people will notice the mirrorlike shin, but the most essential feature is the squishy feel that makes it ideal for extended wear. These body-safe materials are also waterproof and easy to clean after use, making the anal toy ideal for different users.

Surprisingly, the butt plug was considerably quieter for the power (37 – 57 dB), and it’s the remote that was noisier. It vibrates along the sex toy, which makes it not very discreet. Luckily, you can turn off the vibrations by pressing and holding the middle button for a few seconds.

The packaging

Minor issues we found during testing:

Unfortunately, the remote control’s button orientation can be confusing, depending on how you hold it. Like everyone else, we had it upright, but the order of the buttons was plus, function, and then minus. This made it less intuitive as the side button increased the intensity while the bottom one reduced it, which is quite confusing if you ask me.

In addition, the elongated base design made it uncomfortable to sit on. However, you don’t have to worry much about this because it’s not designed for public play.

You can read our comprehensive review of LELO HUGO 2 in this article. We also have another article about many more butt plugs for men.

Features:

  • Material: Silicone & ABS Plastic
  • Size: 4.1″ x 4.2″ x 1.6″
  • Insertable Length: 2.83″

Pros:

  • The well-thought-out build feels cozy.
  • Impressive versatility.
  • Powerful dual-motor design.
  • The rechargeable model is waterproof.
  • It’s a genuinely hands-free model.
  • The remote control makes it perfect for partnered play.

Cons:

  • It doesn’t work with the LELO mobile app.
  • Some people will find the price tag too expensive ($179).

4. Hot Octopuss PleX with flex: Most Customizable!

Hot Octopuss PleX with flex

Why we love Hot Octopuss PleX

Are you not exactly sure what tickles your fancy? Then you should check out Hot Octopuss Flex, which our team rated as the most customizable product on this list!

The primary motivation is that this remote-controlled butt plug comes equipped with two motors that deliver completely different vibe sensations. The motor closest to the head delivers ‘Treble’ vibrations, best described as more intense and buzzy. Closer to the base, you’ll find a motor that delivers deep and rumbly ‘Bass’ vibrations.

Hot Octopuss PleX with flex

“When I began my review, I was very excited about trying the innovative Treble and Bass Technology,” Sandra Larson told me. “In the end, I loved both, but the bass became my favorite,” Sandra added.

We also appreciated that both motors are positioned to give it a slight curvature, making it ideal for stimulating your prostate. The designers also decided to give Hugo an extra-flexible stem, granting it 90-degree bendability, making it even easier to reach all of the good feeling spots inside your booty (prostate or not). Bravo, Hot Octopuss!

The controls at the base

The team also noted the well-designed remote control, which makes it more accessible to anyone with limited mobility. Plus, you can give the remote control to your lover and let them manage your sexual pleasures.

That being said, please note it’s a bigger toy and I would say it’s about medium size. Therefore, I believe it’s better for people who aren’t newbies but not size queens, either.

The device charging

Minor issues found during testing

The deep rumbly bass vibrations were definitely my favorite, and I would have appreciated the option to pump up the bass while dialing down the treble. However, this wasn’t an option since you can’t operate them separately.

Using the remote to cycle through the treble and bass intensities was also lovely, but I found myself wishing that it controlled the vibration patterns too. Using this toy with my partner, I usually stuck to a single vibe setting to mitigate a possibly awkward setting change.

Since the remote isn’t waterproof, I had difficulty operating the flex in the tub. I was left to feel around for the buttons and accidentally turned the sex toy on and off more than once.

If you want to see what PleX with flex looks like and how to use it, please watch our unboxing and demonstration video below:

5. We-Vibe Vector: Best For Partner Play!

We-Vibe Vector

Why we love We-Vibe Vector

Ladies aren’t the only ones lucky enough to bring their toys into the bedroom! The We-Vibe Vector prostate massager is the ultimate for enhancing his pleasure during partner play, too.

“Finding something that stays in place should be a priority regarding toys you use for butt stuff,” Shane Davis commented. “The designers of the We-Vibe Vector ran with this idea, creating a snug-fitting prostate massager, so you won’t have to worry about it going anywhere. That’s something that should be celebrated!” Shane raved.

We-Vibe Vector and the storage pouch

The P-spot massager features a super adjustable head you can angle to hit just the right spot, regardless of your position. We also appreciated that, unlike other prostate massagers, which only focus on the p-spot, the We-Vibe Vector has targeted sensations for your perineum too.

Something strange, though. The Vector wasn’t flexible when our testers tried it for the first time. But after playing with it and finding the joint, they found it to be very malleable and loved that it stays in whatever position you put it in. So I recommend keeping trying until you find what’s working for you.

The device charging

The team rated the insertable length as perfect for beginners; overall, it’s not a huge size. If you’ve used a lot of prostate massagers, then you already know some toys take more foreplay than others to be truly comfortable. But we didn’t find that to be true with the Vector.

We also appreciated that the Vector comes with a remote and is also compatible with the We-Connect app, making it perfect for long-distance play. Other brands, take notes!

We-Vibe Vector and the remote control

Minor issues found during testing

The weak spot in the design is the remote. The remote seems slightly mismatched and didn’t include many of the toy’s design elements.

Although we love the We-Connect app, the app wasn’t perfect. One tester felt it was slightly slow to respond and not very sensitive when using it. Connectivity was also an issue.

We also found Vector’s buttons hard to press while in use. Hence, changing the setting without the help of the remote or app usually resulted in the toy moving, which was frustrating when you had it positioned just right.

It’s also worth mentioning that the Vector won’t be a good fit for those who require a lot of power to get off. Its vibrations are on the buzzier side of the spectrum rather than rumbly, and if that’s important for you, you may need to buy another anal toy.

If you want to see what the We-Vibe Vector looks like and how to use it, please watch our unboxing and demonstration video below:

Features:

  • Material: Body-safe silicone
  • Length: 4”
  • Color: Charcoal black or royal blue
  • Mechanism: Vibrating prostate and perineum massager
  • Circumference: 4.17”
  • Weight: 92g / 3.25 ounces

Pros:

  • Vector is completely waterproof with a splashproof remote.
  • It comes equipped with a sample lube, pouch, and USB charger, everything you need.
  • Size and shape are beginner-friendly
  • Ideal for stimulating your prostate
  • The flexible design makes it compatible with more body types.

Cons:

  • Not the most budget-friendly ($139).
  • The remote control requires batteries.
  • App connectivity is hit or miss.

6. Anos RC: Thrusting & Vibrations!

Anos RC Thrusting Butt Plug

Why we love Anos RC:

Among the vibrating butt plugs we tested, Anos RC stood out as the best choice for folks seeking a blend of automated thrusting and vibration patterns. Our testers loved how the brand incorporated three motors to churn out vibration patterns in the tip and the perineum stimulator, and another to power up to ten thrusting speeds. We thought combining vibration and thrusting actions made the sex toy the perfect choice for anyone looking for something more than a regular plug, a hybrid model that achieves internal and external stimulation.

The team found the vibrations leaned more towards the rumbly side, making the anal plug ideal for people who find buzzy sensations uncomfortable. In addition, the extensive range of ten vibration functions and thrusting functions meant you’d not be stuck in a boring routine. “I found the range sufficient for someone who loves experimenting,” confirms Sandra Larson. “Notably, the vibrations on the tip and perineum stimulator run in tandem with three steady intensities and seven patterns.

Closeup of the control buttons

Anos RC’s thrusting action impressed our product test team. They felt convincing from the start with a punchy feeling that was surprisingly rhythmic. Notably, the thrusting speed changed gradually, with the highest settings delivering intense back-and-forth thrust that stimulated the anal lining within seconds.

The package included a remote control (image below), which significantly simplified the user experience and made the sex toy ideal for partner play. The compact size and cozy silicone finish on the remote control also felt great in the palm. More importantly, it allowed us to regulate the thrusting action and vibrations separately, something most butt plugs we reviewed lacked. Although a rechargeable battery for the remote control would be better, we loved the simplistic interface and easy-to-push buttons.

The remote control

Anos RC’s design was another highlight of the review. The team highlighted how the tapered shape simplified insertion, while the wider body and slim neck enhanced retention. Its pronged perineum stimulator clung onto the sensitive region between the asshole and balls, directing the vibrations where you need them. It was also flexible, making it easy to regulate the angle for maximum satisfaction. In addition, the subtle ridges on the side added a bit of resistance to the experience, making the thrusting action satisfying.

Minor issues we found during testing:

The thrusting butt plug has a mechanical chug that can be problematic for people living in shared spaces. It’s not the loudest sex toy, but it’s not the most silent.

In addition, the team was disappointed that it didn’t come with a storage bag. I get that everyone is on the waste reduction bandwagon, but a cozy satin bag would have been incredibly resourceful.

If you want to see what the Anos RC Thrusting Butt Plug looks like and how to use it, please watch our unboxing and demonstration video below:

You can learn more about Anos RC in our extensive review article.

Features:

  • Material: Silicone, ABS Plastic
  • Insertable Length: 6.22″ – 6.6″
  • Diameter: 1.61″ (widest point)

Pros:

  • Multiple thrusting and vibration patterns.
  • An easy-to-use, tapered design.
  • Convenient remote control.
  • Impressive versatility.
  • It’s 100% waterproof.
  • The model offers internal and external vibrations.

Cons:

  • No storage pouch.

Other Good Alternatives

Lovense Lush AnalLovense Lush Anal is the best option for anal beginners. The size, design, and app-compatibility will ensure you have a pain-free, pleasure-filled experience. The app also makes it appealing for long-distance couples and those who need hands-free pleasure. The only drawback is that it’s small and can’t be scaled up. If you enjoy more pressure, length, and girth in general, this is a hard pass.

b-Vibe Cinco and the controllerSome people consider anal beads essential for a complete butt play experience, and for those users, the B-Vibe Cinco consistently stands out. Among the models we tested, it offered the best mix of comfort and depth, setting a high bar in this category. The toy combines a firm PVC core with a soft silicone outer layer, giving it just the right amount of structure without feeling rigid.

Lovehoney Butt TinglerLovehoney Butt Tingler is our go-to pick for budget-conscious buyers, and for good reason. It’s a simple, approachable toy that can be used with or without the motor, offering flexibility for those still figuring out what they like. The slim shape and smooth finish made it easy to wear for longer sessions without discomfort. At just $24.99, it delivered more than we expected.

We-Vibe Ditto+We-Vibe Ditto+ earned the runner-up spot behind Hush 2 in our public play testing, and it’s a strong choice for beginners. Despite its small size, the vibrations were deep and satisfying, making it more powerful than expected. The plug stayed quiet throughout use, and the fully waterproof build gave it extra versatility.

Happy vibing!
