This week, we are talking thrusting butt plugs, a unique twist to the old classic that can take your pleasures to new heights by applying an in-and-out motion. Let’s first explore our favorite products and then discuss some practical tips on how to maximize your experience.

Of the dozens of models we tested, the Anos RC Thrusting Butt Plug received the highest rating from our review team. It’s not only made to last – being unmistakably high quality, but also has girth in all the right places and offers enough thrusting and vibrating options that you’re bound to find the perfect fit.

How We Picked The Products

Throughout my time at My Sex Toy Guide, I have been fortunate enough to test and review dozens (if not hundreds) of sex toys. And if this experience taught me anything, it’s how to create a testing process that allows me to differentiate the great review samples from the rest of the pack.

For this review, my testing process went as follows: I started by scouring my favorite adult retailers to find 15 of the best thrusting butt plugs on the market today.

After finding my top picks, I then distributed them among my diverse team of testers and had them rate each product and provide their honest feedback about the things they liked (and didn’t like so much) about each pick. Once they made their final rating, I defined key decision-making factors we could measure using well-defined quantitative metrics. These factors included the following:

• Design: Design-wise, there isn’t a ton of variety in this product niche. That being said, toys offering unique design features, such as a bulbous head, curved shaft for p-spot stimulation, and added cock rings, were given brownie points.
• Sensation: Let’s face it, if you’re in the market for a thrusting butt plug, chances are you’re looking for something that can pack a punch. Our test panel kept that in mind when rating each of our picks.
• Comfort: There’s a big difference between a good pounding and being painful, and we made sure not to include any toys that fell into the latter.
• Special features: Mouthwatering vibrations, plenty of thrusting speeds and vibration options, and remote controllability were all highly sought-after features of the review samples.
• Material: Since most machine-operated sex toys are made from silicone, we didn’t have the option to include metal or glass picks. But we did try to include toys made from only the silkiest of silicone (i.e., non-porous and body-safe materials). For curious kinksters who want to check glass butt plugs, you can see the glass plugs we tested in this article.
• Safety: When used correctly, all of the products included in this review can be used safely.
• Size: Though not the most beginner-friendly style of a sex toy, we made sure to include choices for deep anal canal newcomers as well as our more experienced readers.
• Price rating: Additional points were given to the review samples that were able to deliver on features without breaking the bank.
• Quality: Some of the features that scream luxury are soft-to-the-touch silicone, relatively quiet motors, ergonomically correct designs, and USB rechargeability.

During testing, we rated each of the toys based on the criteria listed above, starting from 0% (Worst) to 100% (Best). Each score was calculated using different weighted metrics depending on what we deemed most important. Half the total rating comes from Design (25%) and Sensation (25%). After that comes Quality (10%), Comfort (10%), Safety (10%), Special features (10%), Size (5%), and Price rating (5%).

1. Anos RC Thrusting Butt Plug: Test Winner!

Why we love Anos RC Thrusting Butt Plug:

Like in other articles, we tested numerous features before settling on the test winner. Anos RC thrusting butt plug stood out because of the unique balance that combines a pretty realistic thrusting motion, remote control convenience, and top-tier artistry. Whether you’re playing solo or with a loved one, this product offers convenience and intense anal sensations better than its peers. It’s perfect for intermediate and experienced users looking to combine motion and deep vibrations in their anal exploration sessions.

Anos RC’s self-thrusting movements were genuinely impressive. The sensations weren’t gentle in their approach, but instead jumped into the deep end. “RC’s pumps felt convincing and the bold, punchy motion proved surprisingly rhythmic,” says Rachel Sommer.

The extended range of stimulation, 10 steady speeds and patterns, makes up to 20 thrusting functions, offering more play options so you don’t run out of options. Our testers loved how the sensations quickly switched from slow waves to erratic, often chaotic drills.

Although we found the vibrations powerful, they were a supporting act to the thrusting action, adding a new flair to the piston-like motion. The dual-motor set-up ensured the sensations didn’t overwhelm each other, with the vibrating motor churning out an extra ten patterns. We tried different combos, but the team picked the low-speed thrust and deep constant vibration as the best approach to a stretching out or edging session.

Our only concern with the powerful thrusting and vibration combination was the resulting hum-whine noise that got louder when the thrust kicked in. “It certainly wasn’t unbearable, but we don’t co-sign it for anyone looking for a discreet anal toy,” says Sandra Larson.

The design was another highlight of the review, with the team highlighting how the long, curved body and bulbous tip made it easy to travel deeper and spread the sensations to the more sensitive sweet spots. Its flexible perineum base allowed for easy movements to reduce discomfort during use. Its tapered shape significantly simplified penetration and allowed for gentle anal stretching. The maintained intensity on both thrusting and vibration fronts made the piece a reliable source of pleasure for solo users and couples.

As mentioned before, the convenient remote control (image above) was another reason we picked it for the article. The reviewers were quick to point out how the quick click-and-go setup meant there was no wasting time; long-press the power button and use the remote to regulate the thrusting and vibration patterns. Getting the toy in place took a minute, but once settled in, the piece felt at home, cozy, and steady. More importantly, the 3-button interface and 10-meter range enhanced the user experience, especially for couples.

Versatility-wise, you can use the Anos RC vaginally or on the clitoris. We loved how the thick body and thrusting movements felt intense ramming against the vagina, but it was the pointed tip’s precision on the clit that made it even more resourceful.

The remote control also made the piece more ideal for couples looking to switch controls and enjoy the power exchange dynamics. As long as you don’t need it to be discreet, the piece works great during foreplay, solo play, and teasing fun.

Minor issues we found during testing:

Unfortunately, the Anos RC isn’t the most discreet review sample we tested. There was an undeniable mechanical chug, which got more intense when the thrusting motion intensified.

Lube and body fluids easily sneak into crevices during the thrusting movements, meaning cleaning takes more time and care. Take more time and effort around the thrusting joint, ensuring to wipe off all the gunk inside.

Why Anos RC Thrusting Butt Plug is the best thrusting butt plug:

• Stimulation: Anos RC was our test winner primarily because of the powerful thrusting movements and vibration patterns. Unlike other pieces we tested, the dual-motor setup offered convenience for intermediate and experienced users looking to enjoy both ends of the fun wheel. The extended range of 10 thrusting patterns and speeds was complemented by an extra 10 vibration modes, meaning you’ll not run out of pleasure settings anytime soon.
• Design: The tapered shape with a pointed tip, a thick body, and a slimline neck greatly simplified penetration and laid the foundation for gentle anal stretching. Its flexible perineum base moved with the body during use, ensuring a comfortable experience. Although the finish was smooth, the multiple lines on the body added a layer of resistance, making the sensation more thrilling.
• Versatility: The thrusting butt plug’s compatibility with a wireless remote control was another versatility point. It made it easy to regulate the vibrations and thrusting action, while making the toy perfect for couples. Besides switching controls, the power exchange dynamics made the experience more fun. Whether exploring teasing or edging fun with a loved one or enjoying some warm solo time, it was up to the task. You can also use it to stimulate the vagina and clitoris.

2. Nasstoys Atomic: Light-Up Model!

Why we love Nasstoys Atomic:

Nasstoys Atomic delivered on multiple fronts, but it’s the visual excitement that made it stand out from the competition. The built-in light show offered instant visual appeal, allowing you to enjoy the colorful LED light as the anal toy moves. Our testers highlighted how the thrusting butt plug added a futuristic vibe, allowing people who love having sex or solo masturbation sessions next to a mirror to enjoy the visual experience.

The fun, flashing LED lights were rated as visually arousing. Unlike other light-up models we tested, there were numerous color combinations, making the show more colorful. The multi-color panel at the base’s underside was especially tantalizing when used in dark rooms or when filming yourself or your partner. “Jessica couldn’t wait to get in our little photo booth in the bedroom, and the photos came out perfect,” says Rachel Sommer.

Besides the light show, the team also complimented the company for the intense thrusting action. The good balance meant the vibrations were strong enough to get your attention, but not numbingly powerful. The low thrum spread evenly with short, punchy thrusting, ultimately building up into a thrilling tap-tap-tap rhythm. And with 9 thrusting and vibration patterns, you have a nice range of pleasure options to explore.

The team also pointed out that the device twisted to the side a little, which, combined with the robust thrusting, made the experience super intense. According to Rachel Sommer, the twisting movements got her over the edge quicker than anticipated. “The twisting had me gripping the sheets and undoing the bed instantly,” she affirms.

Like other thrusting butt plugs we tested, Nasstoys Atomics’ tapered design included a smooth, rounded head and a thick stem, which culminated in a thin stem. Besides simplifying insertion, the design also enhanced retention, ensuring it stayed in place cozily once inserted.

The team especially appreciated the unique spiral twist, with grooves lining the surface from the head to the neck. Most butt plugs focus on the in-and-out movement, but Nasstoys made it more exciting. The stirring effect added a dimension of fun, grinding against the anal sphincters to stimulate the nerve endings with the slightest of movement. More importantly, the multi-color lights in the base got the party started as soon as the toy slid through.

How about handling? Well, it starts with the cozy silicone body that makes for smooth, intentional stimulations. The sex toy felt cozy in the hands and inside the anal sphincters. Its flexible base sat comfortably between the ass cheeks and moved with your body, avoiding any unnecessary discomfort.

The compact remote control (image above) felt cozy in the palm, and the straightforward interface meant even a newbie won’t need a manual. No delayed connections or lagging interaction – simply a quick fix that lets couples switch roles and enjoy the power exchange dynamics.

Nasstoys Atomic’s build quality was rated as above average. The review panel was surprised by the velvety silicone material. “It offered a bit of give without being too squishy or stiff,” says Rachel Sommer. “There were no seams, tacky drag, or rough finishes, significantly simplifying the user experience.” Whether it’s the smooth base, the soft-touch silicone body, or the spiral twist, everything felt deliberately made and not just plastered together. Nothing felt flimsy or cheap, and the team loved every bit of the experience.

Minor issues we found during testing:

Unfortunately, the motor gave out a whiny sound that got louder when the thrusting was at its peak. It might not be loud enough to alarm your neighbors, but it won’t suffice if you’re going for a subtle sex accessory.

The twist-and-thrust combination can be too overwhelming for beginners to anal sex or those sensitive to deep internal motion.

Why Nasstoys Atomic is the best light-up model:

• Design: Nasstoys Atomic’s built-in light show made it stand out. The illuminated base provided instant visual appeal, making it perfect for people who like having sex or solo masturbation next to a mirror. The colorful LED lights pulse as the butt plug moves, adding a futuristic and rave-like vibe to the experience. Notably, the Atomic boasted multiple color combinations and a convenient remote control to regulate the show.
• Ease of Use: Nasstoys Atomic was surprisingly easy to use. Our testers loved that it came with a remote control, making it easy to regulate the thrusting and vibration patterns without halting the motion. The silicone material was much grippier than glass and metal sex toys, giving the user more control over the angles and positions during use. More importantly, the compact design and USB-rechargeable battery made it perfect for travel.
• Stimulation: The piece also boasted impressive numbers regarding the quality of sensations. The vibrations were strong enough to get you listening, but not numbingly buzzing. Although short, the punchy thrusting gave the rhythmic motion a filthy yet exciting effect that made it perfect for intermediates and experienced folks. Its 9 functions of thrusting, twisting, and vibration modes gave the user sufficient options whether playing solo or with a loved one.

3. JAVIDA RC Shaking Panty Vibe: Best Wearable!

Why we love JAVIDA RC Shaking Panty Vibe:

JAVIDA RC Shaking Panty Vibe’s cute design makes it the perfect wearable accessory for people seeking a teasing, joyous experience that gradually builds up to exciting orgasms. It’s designed for discreet public play, with a long shaft that goes into the anal opening and a cozy external arm that rests on the perineum. As long as you have snug underwear, the external arm rests comfortably on the perineum, allowing you to carry on with the day without worrying about it popping off.

The team was excited to look into the design, describing it as great when the dust settled. The good balance between functionality and coziness stood out, with the slim and smooth body guaranteeing gentle anal exploration. Its well-thought-out dimensions and bulbous silicone body enhanced retention. In addition, the flexible external leaf sat nicely against the body, avoiding unwanted travel.

The team reported that the natural curve followed the body quite well, offering a cozy yet thrilling vaginal and anal stimulation. “The gently curved shaft made it easy to guide the sex toy to the sweet spots,” says Rachel Sommer. “The subtle ridges added texture to the experience, creating nice gliding sensations whenever it moved inside.”

Although the testers initially described the internal shaking as awkward, the soft, rhythmic thud proved more exciting than they thought. According to our product test lead, Sandra Larson, it felt like something was gently nudging closer to her sweet spots with every shift. “Once my body tuned to the motion, the internal shaking proved significantly effective.”

Anally, the internal shaking provided a less flirtatious and more intense, deep tapping pressure that added to the teasing fun without being overwhelming. On the other hand, the clitoral or perineum stimulator offered users broad, rumbly vibrations spread out across the vulva. It might not be the most pinpoint or intense external stimulation flicker, but it covered enough ground to keep your brain buzzing.

Please note that even with the multiple sensations, the thrusting butt plug can’t be described as an ‘orgasm-on-command’ sex toy. However, it delivered on its mandate: a slow, steady tension build-up to complement the probing internal shaft.

The simplistic design and compatibility with a remote control (image above) made it straightforward to use. You don’t need a manual or expertise to get started, and all you need is to charge it up, apply lube, and slide the shaft in, positioning the clit/perineum arm comfortably up front. There was no pairing process with the remote, and it syncs automatically, allowing you to regulate the sensations effortlessly.

Pro Tip: We recommend wearing snug underwear or a tight bodysuit to keep things in place. Loose or too breathable undies tend to drift the clit stimulator.

Lastly, the build quality was surprisingly good. It felt premium with the matte finish, giving it sufficient grip to simplify handling. Unlike other models we tested, the shaking panty vibrator had no plasticky smells, and cleaning it was seamless. The remote control also felt high-end, and even with layers of denim or half a restaurant in the way, the signals worked fine.

Minor issues we found during testing:

Unfortunately, you must wear tight, secure panties to hold the sex toy in place. The device shifts to the side when you wear loose undies.

In addition, the package didn’t include a storage pouch. It might not be the end of the world, but a small satin-lined bag would have been great for storage and travel needs.

Why JAVIDA RC is the best wearable thrusting butt plug:

• Design: JAVIDA RC Shaking panty vibe’s well-thought-out design made it stand out as the coziest wearable model. Its dimensions and bulbous body enhanced retention once inside, with the grippy silicone hugging onto the vaginal and sphincter muscles. The external leaf-shaped arm sat nicely against the vulva and perineum, allowing for extended anal fun without uncomfortable probing.
• Ease of Use: The thrusting butt plug is among the easiest to use in the article. You won’t need a manual or any expertise to get started. Just sufficient water-based lube, and the piece slides through effortlessly. It comes with a convenient remote control, making it just as ideal for couples as it is for solo users. We loved how it synced automatically with the toy, saving you from wasting time trying to pair the two.
• Build Quality: The high-quality silicone and ABS plastic materials underline the brand’s commitment to user satisfaction. The unit felt solid from the get-go, and even after repeated use, it still felt brand new. Our testers loved the attention to detail, highlighting how the curved shaft and subtle ridges enhanced precision and created a pleasant gliding sensation.

4. b-Vibe Rimming Plug: Rimming Sensation!

Why we love the b-Vibe Rimming Plug:

We’ve tested numerous models that claimed to provide a realistic rimming sensation, but none came close to the b-Vibe Rimming Plug. Our testers thought it did a decent job mimicking the feeling of oral stimulation on the anal opening, feeling like a ‘mad tongue’ circling the rim, with a bonus of vibration patterns.

What’s the secret? Well, an intertwining row of beads rotates around inside the plug’s neck, delivering mild rumbles on the anal rim that feel like someone tonguing the anus. “It was unlike anything I’ve experienced before,” says Rachel Sommer. “Jessica and I love butt stuff and the rimming sensations offered the best avenue to complement our sex life.”

Combined with the vibrations, the sensations were even more intense. While a bit of intensity on the side of vibrations would be significant, the buzzing amplified the experience. The bead movements felt distinct, almost like an experienced oral sex connoisseur coded their daily escapades to share with the rest of us. The best part about it? The model has 7 rotation modes and 6 vibration patterns, providing an excellent range of pleasure settings to explore.

The tapered design included a pointed tip to simplify insertion. Its well-thought-out dimensions (3.9″ insertable length & 1.4″ width) also made it ideal for beginners because of the comparatively straightforward penetration. It felt cozy inside, and even for a first-timer, the petite piece is a great stepping stone to anal exploration.

The b-Vibe Rimming Plug’s flexible neck promoted flexibility, allowing it to move with the body naturally during use. In addition, the flared base (image above) promoted security, allowing the user to use the toy without worrying about it being fully submerged inside the anus.

In terms of ease of use, we found the rimming plug very easy to use. The compact remote felt cozy in the palm, and the easy-to-push buttons made regulating the rotating beads and vibrating motor straightforward. Our testers loved its impressive range of 30 feet because it opened the door for couples, allowing for seamless control from across the room.

One small disappointment was that there’s no way to regulate the vibration and rimming action separately. The vibration often overshadowed the rimming sensation, making it harder to enjoy it. No biggie, but worth mentioning.

Versatility-wise, the b-Vibe rimming plug’s multi-sensation design made it stand out from the others we tested. It combined rimming motion and vibration patterns, making the sensations more enriched. Its extended range of pleasure options made it easy to customize the experience to match your experience and sexual desires. In addition, the rimming plug is available in three different sizes, allowing you to pick the one that best suits your sexual experience.

Minor issues we found during testing:

Unfortunately, you can’t regulate the rimming action and the vibration patterns separately. For a sex toy with a remote control, we expected that it would be possible.

In addition, the sex toy is not waterproof, making cleaning more delicate. It also means you can’t use it in the bath.

Why the b-Vibe Rimming Plug is our favorite for rimming sensations:

• Design: The rotating beads inside its neck offered a gliding effect when inserted, mimicking the feeling of performing oral sex on the anus. The smooth, gentle clenching stimulated the nerve endings-rich anal opening, delivering the closest thing to someone running their tongue around the rim. We tested numerous rimming toys, but none came close to the b-Vibe rimming plug’s effectiveness. It felt more intentional. More importantly, its tapered tip simplified insertion, while the flared base made it anal sex safe.
• Ease of Use: Everything from the well-thought-out dimensions to the tapered design and convenient remote control made the rimming plug the easiest butt plug to use. It felt light on the hands and inside the anus. In addition, the tapered tip made it easy to slide it through with sufficient lube.
• Stimulations: While it might not be the most intense sex toy in the article, the review panel loved that the piece churned out a mix of rimming motion and vibration patterns. The extensive range of 7 rotation modes and 6 vibration patterns gave the user multiple pleasure options to explore. More importantly, the rimming action was the closest thing to oral stimulation around the anus. Not identical, but close enough. Although the vibrations were more on the buzzy side, they added a new dimension of excitement, making the sensations more elaborate.

Other Good Alternatives

Booty Blaster 10 Function is the perfect choice for budget seekers looking to dive into the exciting world of thrusting butt plugs. For only $49.99, the piece was an excellent value for money. Everything from the tapered shape to the multiple vibration patterns (7) and thrusting speeds (3) made it a massive bargain.

The wired remote control made control much easier for solo users and couples. And with a suction cup base, the hands-free sex toy lets you focus on other erogenous zones, ultimately making the sensations more wholesome.

True Blue is the answer for anyone seeking an elongated butt plug that can get to the prostate gland. The 4.16″ shaft boasted a rounded head angled a bit forward to get to the prostate without much fussing. True Blue’s smooth, tapered shape simplified penetration while the rounded head provided more surface area, ensuring you don’t miss your sweet spot. More importantly, the ergonomic base landed on the perineum, delivering the vibrations between the area between the penis and anus, a surprisingly stimulating experience.

The model’s 3-speed head massaged the prostate gland from the get-go, with a bonus of a 10-function vibrating motor stimulating the sensitive anal lining. Our testers also loved that it came with a remote control, enhancing partnered play.

Evolved Backdoor Banger is the ideal choice for the more experienced players. The dimensions (4″ usable length & 1.55″ wide) offered a chunky body for anyone looking to test their limits. Its smooth silicone finish has a bit of give, allowing it to adapt to your body’s shape for cozy extended use. More importantly, it was more filling than the rest of the pieces we tested, thanks to the multiple rings that got wider towards the body. The tapered design simplified penetration and laid the foundation for gentle anal stretching.

The extended range of pleasure settings included 7 pulsing and thrusting functions. The variety made it easy to customize the experience, while the remote control made it easy to regulate the sensations for solo users and couples.

How To Use A Thrusting Butt Plug?

If you have experience with anal sex toys, upgrading to a thrusting butt plug should be a piece of cake. That being said, here is a step-by-step guide to help you get started:

1. Start by giving your thrusting anal vibrator a thorough clean! This includes your toy as well as your tush (don’t be afraid to sneak a wet finger in there.)
2. Once clean, both your toy and your bum are ready for lube. Since most thrusting butt plugs are made from silicone, you’ll want to stick to either water or oil-based lubricants.
3. With the motor off, begin slowly inserting it until you fit the entire length of the body (or as much of it as you can) into your bum.
4. Once fully inserted, turn your device on, starting with a low setting. As you feel ready, you can increase the intensity.

Using anal toys is easy once you get the hang of them. If you’re new to anal play or are looking for a refresher on safe sex toy practices, be sure to check out our full guide. And if you want to check more great butt plugs for different uses, click here.
