How to Choose an Inflatable Butt Plug

What Is an Inflatable Butt Plug?

The inflatable butt plug is a butt plug that can be inflated to a bigger size to provide a more extensive stretch. When not inflated, it looks like a regular butt plug that you can insert and enjoy. But, depending on the design, it can inflate manually via a pump and a hose that is attached to the butt plug, or use the automatic inflation option if you have a high-tech model. In any case, the inflatable butt plug will test your limits and provide you with a next-level anal playtime.

How to Choose an Inflatable Butt Plug?

When you select an inflatable butt plug, you need to be aware of several things that will enable you to have an enjoyable, safe experience. Before you buy your new inflatable butt plug, you should consider your experience and focus on models made from body-safe materials:

• Design – the inflatable butt plugs come in a straightforward spade-like design, but some exotic models are shaped as beads, a penis, or have a more ergonomic shape aimed at targeted P-spot stimulation.
• Inflation type – basically, you can get an inflatable butt plug that you manually inflate or get a model that has automatic inflation. If you get a model that inflates manually, you can fine-tune the size you want, but you have to manually inflate it. The automatically inflated butt plugs usually don’t allow fine-tuning of the size but are more comfortable to use.
• Deflation type – the inflatable butt plugs need to have quick-release valves for safe use, as these allow you to quickly deflate the plug should something go wrong or you need to remove it. The manually inflatable butt plugs have a quick-release valve that quickly deflates the toy, while the automatically inflating butt plugs have a deflation button that does the same thing.
• Size – you need to be aware of the size of the inflatable butt plug and know the non-inflated size and the inflated size. It will help you determine whether you can safely use the toy and how much it will stretch your boundaries (and your back door). We always list all relevant information about our products, including the sizes that are not inflated and those that are inflated.
• Material – the best choice for inflatable butt plugs is silicone, as this is a body-safe, non-porous material that is perfect for anal use. But you can also find excellent inflatable butt plugs made from rubber and are safe for anal use, although they require more diligent cleaning.
• Extra features – under extra features, we consider remote controllers, vibrations, vibrating or suction cup bases, and other features users may enjoy.

Benefits of Using an Inflatable Butt Plug

Using a butt plug in your sexy games is quite fun, but an inflatable butt plug is on a whole new level of anal play.

• Enhanced stimuli – the inflatable butt plugs can be used in two ways – in the size they are for regular anal teasing and the inflated size that will stretch your limits and provide an intensely pleasurable sensation.
• Anal training & gaping – the butt plug is excellent for anal training and introduction to anal sex. Still, the inflatable butt plug is even more helpful for hard-core anal training and anal gaping.
• Prostate stimulation – the butt plugs target the prostate in men, which is known as the P-spot, which can induce powerful orgasms, and the inflatable plugs provide an even deeper, more intense stimulation.

Tips for Safe Inflatable Butt Plug Use

You need to approach inflatable butt plugs with care, as these can be very pleasurable but also very dangerous if you don’t know what you are doing. So, here are some essential tips to help you use an inflatable butt plug safely:

• Start with a clean toy – always clean your inflatable butt plug before and after use. Wash it with antibacterial sex toy cleaner and warm water, pat it dry, and it will be ready to use. Tend to only use inflatable butt plugs that are non-porous and easy to clean to ensure you have a safe toy to play with.
• Always use lube – the anus does not self-lubricate, so you need a lot of lube so you can safely use the inflatable butt plug. We recommend you use a quality water-based lube, as this is compatible with all sex toy materials. If you have an inflatable butt plug made from latex, you can use a silicone-based lube, which is long-lasting and doesn’t dry out, but please note that these are not compatible with silicone toys.
• Start slow – if you are using a butt plug for the first time, it is perfectly natural to feel some reluctance, so start slow and easy when you first insert the inflatable butt plug. After you gain some experience, you can start playing around with the inflatable feature. Start slowly, with only one press of the pump, to see how you like the sensations, and never be too zealous to fully inflate the butt plug on the first try. Go slowly and enjoy the sensations, and stop if something feels off.
