b-Vibe Rimming Plug Review 2024: Right Tool for the (Rim) Job?

b-Vibe Rimming Plug PetiteThe b-Vibe Rimming Plug Petite puts a twist on the classic anal plug toys: it has rotating beads to mimic a rim job. Sex toys that mimic oral sex on penises and vaginas have been around for a while, so it’s about time your backside got the same treatment. So, let’s talk about what I thought about this butt plug after I began research for my review.

Key Takeaways
4.7 out of 5 stars

The vibrating tip hit the right spot, and the rimming sensations were marvelous. All in all, it’s the ideal remote-controlled anal toy for rimming enthusiasts to add to their collection because it’s so much fun – highly recommended!

Who Should Try It? Anyone interested in a butt plug that vibrates and provides sensations around the anus’s rim will love this rimming toy. It could also be an excellent purchase for couples into public play.

Who Can Skip It? If you’re unsure whether you like anal stimulation or not, it’s probably better to try something cheaper first, like Doc Johnson Mood Naughty, because this toy is quite pricey.

What is the b-vibe Rimming Plug?

The b-Vibe Rimming Plug is a butt plug with rotating beads in the neck area that mimics a rim job sensation. It has a remote control and comes in three sizes: petite, medium, and XL.

B-Vibe is a leader in the anal play industry. Anal is all they do; since they specialize in anal pleasure, their products are excellent. Many companies put out vibrating anal toys without much thought about the design—perhaps simply adding a flared base to their regular vibrators (side note: using a butt plug without a flared base is strictly prohibited!) But b-Vibe goes deeper and aims to make anal play accessible to people of any gender, which all of us can get behind—pun intended.

The content of the box

Packaging

The b-Vibe Rimming Plug Petite came discreetly packaged in a cardboard box and has everything you need: the vibrating butt plug, a wireless remote, a storage case, a charging cable, and an instruction manual.

It’s packaged neatly inside a sturdy box with a flip lid. It also comes with a cute little unicorn sticker that says, “anal is magic.” However, adding a sample packet of lube would be helpful since no one should ever use anal toys without lube.

Here’s something I love about their packaging: they list the product by size, not experience. Everyone is a different size—and that includes everyone’s anuses as well.

b-Vibe Rimming Plug Petite

Many companies categorize their products by experience level, as in beginner, intermediate, and advanced. But the truth is that someone who has been having anal sex all their life may feel most comfortable with a small-sized butt plug for biological reasons. And someone who is brand new may fall in love with a giant butt plug.

It’s a nice touch that reflects the reality that people are of different sizes, not just skill levels.

Note: b-Vibe also offers sets that cater to skill level, like the beginner Snug Plug, for those who prefer to shop with that terminology.

Material

The body is made from soft silicone. However, keep in mind that the design is splash-proof, not waterproof, so don’t bring this into the tub!

Dimensions

The b-Vibe Rimming Plug Petite is a medium-sized butt plug. Though the website lists it as “petite,” the size guide on the back of the box lists it as a medium.

Body

The body of the b-Vibe plug has a tapered tip, making it reasonably easy to insert.

How To Charge b-Vibe Rimming Plug?

The b-Vibe Rimming Plug Petite is rechargeable, and the user guide said it would take two hours to charge. When I tested it, it took an hour and fifty-one minutes to charge, and on the lowest setting, it lasted four and a half hours, well over the user guide’s estimated battery life.

The device charging

It comes with a magnetic charging port, which is my favorite kind. When the light flashes, that means it’s charging. When it’s solid, it’s fully charged. And when it’s rapidly flashing, that’s your sign to plug it in because it’s about to bail.

Warranty and Support

B-Vibe offers a one-year warranty against faulty workmanship or materials.

How To Clean b-Vibe Rimming Plug?

To clean, wash with warm water and antibacterial soap, but be careful not to fully submerge it in water since it’s not waterproof. Since it’s not waterproof, it’s worth noting that this toy is much harder to sanitize than most and will likely hold smell or stain in a way that others do not.

How To Use b-Vibe Rimming Plug?

  • After you charge your device, wash it thoroughly and grab plenty of water-based lube.
  • Silicone lubes won’t work as they can wear down the quality of silicone sex toys and make them less body-safe in the long run.
  • Remove the back of the remote and the pull tab from the battery.
  • Turn the toy on with the base control button.
  • Push the button again to use it manually, or turn the remote on to pair it with the plug.

The controls are relatively simple to operate, even though it has a wireless remote. To get started, you turn the device on and then the remote to pair it.

b-Vibe Rimming Plug Petite with the remote control

If you want to use the toy’s controls, you use the power button to cycle through the nine modes and various speeds. If you prefer to use the remote, you use the plus and minus buttons to adjust the intensity, the wavy button for cycling through the vibration patterns, and the circular arrow to cycle through the rimming patterns.

Note: the plus and minus will increase the power of the rimming beads and the vibration at the same time, not separately. To turn off the vibrator or beads, which will allow you to experience the sensations individually, hold the circular arrow or wavy button for three seconds.

The base with the control button and charging port

Hold the plus and minus buttons for three seconds to turn the remote’s travel lock off or on. To turn the butt plug’s travel lock on, hold the on/off button for five seconds and do the same to unlock it.

My Personal Experience

Design

I’m not an anal expert or size queen by any stretch of the imagination. But when I opened the box, I did question the naming of this sex toy. Maybe it’s petite for some, but it made more sense when I saw the label “medium” on the back. It’s more medium than small, and I think it’s one of the larger toys I’ve seen that’s targeted at anal newbies.

So, lube and time are of the essence—especially if you’re new to anal play. Take your time, go as slowly as is comfortable, and use more lube than you thought humanly possible. After you have inserted it, it should feel comfortable.

Ease Of Use

Also, the buttons are easy to push. Maybe a little too easy. If you slip and press the power button on the remote (like I did a few times, thanks to the copious amount of lube), it turns everything off. Then, you must start from the beginning and cycle through to find the settings you like.

My biggest qualm is that it would be nice to control the vibrations and rimming separately. With the vibrations on, it somewhat overshadowed the rimming sensation and made it harder to pick out.

Stimulations

The vibrating tip hits precisely the right spot—at least, it did for me. The rimming sensation was marvelous, too. You’d never confuse it for the real thing, but it’s a fun addition, and the rotating beads are a huge selling point for anyone who is into butt stuff.

Speaking of the vibrations, they are on the buzzy end of the spectrum. And for some reason, that bothers me more with anal toys, and I have no idea why.

Overall, the vibrations were enough to add sensation, but the vibration intensity wasn’t there. The rimming feeling is by far the standout of this device. The way the beads rotate is super distinct, and the vibrations are much less so.

Remote Control & Range

The remote works well from several feet away. In my opinion, this toy would be suitable for public play, except that the large base makes the b-Vibe plug somewhat uncomfortable to sit on for extended periods. The design of the base makes it so that, once inserted, you won’t worry about this plug falling out, unlike most plugs.

One cool thing about the butt plug is that once situated, it’s a hands-free toy. You don’t have to reach around and move the toy like you would with beads. The remote makes this even more convenient so you can change the settings without twisting into an anally pleasured pretzel to increase the intensity.

Sound Level

Keep in mind that it’s also somewhat loud. It’s certainly not whisper quiet, but no device is.

I have a confession to make: I have never had an orgasm from anal stimulation alone, but I don’t have a prostate. If you get extra pleasure from anal fun and love the feeling of rimming, this toy will be right up your alley. Otherwise, maneuver it into a comfortable position and then use your favorite vibrator or dildo for double the fun.

Who Should Try It

Anyone interested in a butt plug that vibrates and provides sensations around the anus’s rim will love this toy.

Who Can Skip This Sex Toy

If you’re not sure you’ll like an anal toy, it may be better to try something cheaper before upgrading to the b-Vibe Rimming Plug Petite.

How It Stacks Up Against Other b-Vibe Toys

b-Vibe Beginner Booty Set

The b-Vibe Beginner Booty Set comes with a Novice Plug (a smaller version roughly the size of a finger or two), a remote control, and a bottle of water-based lube.

It costs $145, the same as the Rimming Plug Petite version, but it won’t offer the rimming sensation. In addition, it comes with more control options, though, as it has six intensity levels and fifteen vibration patterns for you to explore.

b-Vibe Vibrating Snug Plug

The Snug Plug gives an entirely different sensation than the b-Vibe Rimming Plug Petite. Unlike the Rimming Plug Petite, the Snug Plug was designed to provide the feeling of a weighty, metal toy wrapped in ultra-soft silicone. It gives a pleasant feeling of pressure rather than vibration.

The Vibrating Snug Plug also vibrates, as its name indicates, comes in five different sizes and costs only $90. While the price point is cheaper than the Plug Petite, the Vibrating Snug Plug’s shape will suit people comfortable with bigger toys.

b-Vibe Rimming Plug 2 and Rimming Plug XL

The only differences between the b-Vibe Rimming Plug Petite and the Rimming Plug 2 and XL are the size and the price. Plug 2 is one step up, and the XL is the next step up.

The Plug 2 costs $150, and the XL is $160. The XL does have a slightly stronger edge to its shape, too. The Petite and 2 come in a limited edition version which costs $10-15 more, and both the plug and the remote have a sparkly color.

b-Vibe Triplet Anal Beads

B-Vibe Triplet Anal Beads are remote-controlled, rechargeable, vibrating anal beads. The set is small and perfect for people who don’t want something bulky to start with. The size tapers up as you insert it, allowing you to start slow if that’s more comfortable.

b-Vibe Triplet anal beads

It costs $140, and it isn’t waterproof. If you prefer deeper anal canal stimulation, you can try the b-Vibe Cinco Anal Beads, which have five beads instead of three and retails for $160.

Hot Octopuss PleX with flex

The Hot Octopuss PleX with flex is another butt plug with two motors: one at the base with powerful rumbly vibes and another at the tip that offers lighter, buzzier sensations. The vibrating base is not meant to mimic the feeling of a rim job, but it does give people new to anal play different sensations to explore.

b-Vibe Rimming Plug Petite and Hot Octopuss PleX with flex

The Hot Octopuss PleX with flex isn’t quite as wide as the b-Vibe Rimming Plug Petite, so it’s easier to insert for people who prefer small toys. It also includes a nicer satin storage bag, is waterproof, and feels more luxurious than the b-Vibe.

The PleX with flex costs $135, slightly cheaper than the Rimming Plug Petite. Please read my full review here! And you can find more butt plug reviews here.

Lelo Hugo

Lelo Hugo is a butt plug meant for those with prostates. At $219.99, it’s certainly on the expensive side, but it has two motors that target the perineum as well as the prostate. Our sex toy reviewer voted it the best vibrating prostate massager on the market.

Lelo Hugo

In addition, the wireless remote allows you to operate it with motion in addition to using the buttons. However, the Hugo prostate massager is moderately loud, and the price point means it’s best for people who know they love prostate stimulation and are willing to spend a lot to get what they want.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What Rimming Plug size should I buy?

If you are new to butt stuff, I recommend buying Rimming Plug petite. If you’re an intermediate user with some experience, buy Rimming Plug 2. And experienced users looking for some width can buy Rimming Plug XL.

How does b-Vibe Rimming Plug feel?

The b-Vibe Rimming Plug rimming sensation was marvelous. However, it doesn’t feel like a real rimjob, but it’s a fun addition, and the rotating beads are a huge selling point for anyone who likes anal. On the other hand, the vibrations are a bit weak, so if you need a lot of vibrations, you need to look elsewhere.

Thanks for reading my b-Vibe Rimming Plug Petite review!
