Why I Chose It
I picked this thrusting butt plug out as the Test Winner of this review because it ticks off all the boxes in terms of function and quality. It’s a reasonably priced, wearable anal thruster, it provides enjoyable prostate stimulation as well as perineal stimulation, offers both vibrations and thrusting, is easy to operate with the physical remote control, and super easy to clean and care for since it’s coated in non-porous silicone and fully waterproof. Let’s have a look at what our tester, James, thought of it!
“One highlight was the satisfying weight it carried once I became accustomed to it. Although I was worried about the size, it felt amazing once it was inside. I couldn’t deny the sheer enjoyment, especially when the thrusting feature kicked in, though it took some getting used to.”
This thrusting butt plug is pretty sizeable, and I wouldn’t say it’s completely beginner-friendly. However, the cone-like shape is quite forgiving for more adventurous newbies, since the taper assists in the insertion.
According to James, the thrusting sensations were nice and deep. However, “the heightened sensations during intercourse left me feeling like the anal plug stole the spotlight, clouding my overall experience. Solo play or incorporating it into foreplay proved far more enjoyable.”
My main point of critique about this anal thruster is about discretion, which is, of course, not equally important to everyone out there. Although, if you live with roommates or family, it’s definitely something to consider. For the Anos RC Thrusting Butt Plug, “the thrusting feature is undeniably fantastic, it’s worth noting that it tends to be quite noisy, demanding extra attention to maintain privacy.“

Why I Chose It
The EdenFantasys P-Spot Stroker is much more beginner-friendly version of our Test Winner with a slimline design and super flexible neck. However, this should not make you underestimate the performance of this toy.
“The thrusting motions are intense, direct, and incredibly knee buckling and make your abdominal wall contract in weakness.”
As someone who has never tried a product from EdenFantasys, I have to admit I was quite skeptical of this thrusting butt plug. That said, as a sex toy expert, there’s nothing in particular that concerns me about this product. It’s made of body-safe silicone, the features are powerful and work well. The design elements add to the sensations and the remote control feature elevates the overall value, in my opinion.
Our tester Damian starts out his review by stating that the EdenFantasys P-Spot Stroker is one of the few prostate oriented sex toys he owns in his line-up of anal toys. “It is also one of the few toys to ever grant me a prostate orgasm, which speaks volumes.” So, in terms of pleasure, this device definitely passes the test.
The only negative aspect of the EdenFantasys P-Spot Stroker is how the tapered base of the toy “makes it quite difficult to keep in your anus, as opposed to making it easier.” This can sometimes be the case with anal toys that have very little difference in girth between the body of the plug and the neck. This does mean that things tend to slip out under pressure (often during orgasm). This does mean that the plug isn’t ideal for long-term wear or for wearing around the house.
Best Thrusting Dildo Velvet Thruster Mini Teddy TX
- Thrusting dildo with a semi-realistic design
- Stroke length of 2.5 inches
- Up to 125 strokes per minute
- Suction cup base.
Pros
- ✅ Suction cup sticks very well
- ✅ Suitable for different experiece levels
- ✅ Battery life is pretty long
- ✅ Great for deep hands-free penetration
Cons
- ❌ Loud
- ❌ Not fully waterproof
- ❌ Quite large and bulky

Why I Chose It
The Velvet Thruster Mini Teddy TX is my top pick for a thrusting dildo for anal play. It’s a good quality silicone dildo that has a super strong suction cup. When it comes to anal thrusters with suction cups, I admit that I’m often suspicious of how well they can keep up. With the Velvet Thruster Mini Teddy TX, there’s nothing to fear. It could suck for a living! This is also important for powerful thrusters like this. As our tester Katie mentioned in her review: “When I first turned it on, it didn’t look like it was going that fast. My goodness! I was wrong, 125 strokes per minute consistently is one heck of a tool.”
Now, given the pretty sizeable diameter of 1.5″ for anal thruster, this is not for complete beginners. The realistic design makes the shape and texture less than ideal for those who haven’t experienced anal thrusting before. Katie, who was testing it out for vaginal use noted that, “despite being called the ‘Mini’, this toy looks huge as is — I can’t believe this is the smaller version. For me, it certainly does the job!”
One thing, I do think this anal thruster lacks is discretion. It’s quite loud when it’s in use and the whole device is pretty large and bulky. I also always prefer that anal toys be waterproof for a super thorough cleaning process. This one is only splashproof and needs to be wiped down with sex toy cleaner and a damp cloth rather than submerged in water.
All in all, it still is a solid choice if you’re looking for a full-on hand-held (or hands-free) thruster. It’s definitely an investment, yes. Although, I do appreciate that it can be used vaginally as well, if you use a condom on it! In Katie’s case, “The Velvet Thruster Mini Teddy is a toy I will be coming back to over and over again, though I will be keeping an eye out for a quieter option in the future.”

Why I Chose It
I wanted to include the Lovense Gravity because of its powerful vibrations and thrusting, premium quality, and, last but not least, its app control features. The app compatibility really makes it stand out from the other anal thrusters in this review, since it unlocks so much versatility.
Our tester, Flora, had mostly good things to say about the Lovense Gravity. First of all, the integrity of the suction cup base:
“Whoever engineered this thing deserves a medal. The suction cup bonded the base to smooth surfaces with an unbudgeable force. I felt like an earthquake could roll through, and the Gravity would just bob along like it was bouncing to some beats.”
Similarly to my verdict of the Velvet Thruster Mini Teddy TX, I don’t think the Lovense Gravity is very discreet. It’s quite large and gets very loud. “After lots of prep and lube, the Lovense Gravity was in and rumbling away. It was hard to focus on pleasure while distracted by thrusting warbles. After popping in some earbuds, I was too entrenched in tunes for the motor to disturb me.”
There is a design element that looks a bit ominous. I’m talking about the accordion-folded silicone bit that allows the shaft to extend when it thrusts. However, Flora clarifies that “the folded portion lies below the insertable length, so it never comes into contact with delicate skin. That may not be the case if one were to attempt plunging deeper than the 5.12-inches of insertable length.” That said, it is for sure anal safe (provided the suction cup base is attached). I would just be careful not to insert it too far.

Why I Chose It
I wanted to include the Motorbunny Buck for those looking for a heavy duty anal thruster. Sometimes you want to be able to sit back and let something else do all the work. This sex machine is ideal for those who crave both thrusting and vibrations! It’s also great for both vaginal and anal penetration because of the silicone attachments that are easy to sterilize. I
The versatility is one of my favorite things about this device. As our tester, Tawney, mentioned in her review, “Despite the price tag associated with this sex machine, there is no other on the market that I would recommend for someone looking to be able to grow with their machine. […] Overall, it has gone the distance with me and even after over a year of trying it out regularly, I have had no issues whatsoever with this product.”
It’s not just for having a blast by yourself either. It’s really great for using with a partner. What better way to experience lifelike double-penetration or simultaneous penetration with a partner? This saddle easily fits two people and the different attachments allow you to explore a lot of different sensations and positions together.
Now, this is a sex machine after all, so it is definitely not very quiet, compact, or discreet. Do not opt for the Motorbunny Buck if you live with family or friends, unless you only want to be able to use it when you’re home alone. It also takes up a lot of space is difficult to storage in a subtle way. It may not be as loud as a Sybian, but you’ll still need a lot of space and privacy for this one.

Types of Anal Thrusters
Depending on your desires and backdoor experience, you might want to choose a certain kind of anal thruster.
Of course, you’re not limited to just one toy: you can even have multiple devices for different occasions!
Here are the main three types you can choose from.
- Butt Plug – By design, butt plugs are intended to stay in place during use. This means that they tend to be less powerful than other types of anal thrusters but won’t get in the way as much if you decide to use additional toys alongside your thrusting butt plug.
- Dildo – Thrusting dildos are available in many different sizes, making them a great choice for simulating anal sex (or preparing for it). Although they won’t replicate the entire act for you, thrusting dildos provide more stimulation than a regular dildo thanks to their thrusting capabilities. Many models also offer other features like vibrations or rotations as well.
- Machine – If the two aforementioned options seem like they require too much effort, then a thrusting sex machine is probably your best option. Available as smaller mountable machines (like the Motorbunny Buck) or as bulky, high-powered fuck machines, these toys simulate anal sex through physical thrusting movements. These motions make them ideal for more experienced backdoor users, but anal beginners will want to avoid these toys until they’ve gotten used to anal penetration.
Thrusting vs Throbbing
Although the toys above can all be generalized as anal thrusters, there’s actually a distinct difference between thrusting and throbbing/pulsating.
Thrusting machines use motors to physically move the outside of the toy back and forth in a thrusting movement (which can be visually seen).
Throbbing machines use exclusively internal motors, meaning the movement can’t be physically seen.
These internal motors will cause the throbbing toy to move inside your anus but aren’t quite as intense as full-on thrusting toys.
Materials
Non-porous materials like silicone, metal, ABS plastic, or glass are ideal for butt play since they can be sterilized between uses.
Porous materials (such as TPE) might be cheaper, but they can’t be fully sterilized, meaning you’ll have to take extra care to ensure they’re clean after use. I generally don’t recommend using these materials for anal play, though. Alternatively, you can always use a condom on an anal toy made of porous materials.
