Afterthoughts

Design

The SquarePegToys Egg Plug is simple yet practically designed. From the abstract cast to 11 size-options, it screams inclusivity. I love how violet silicone preserves glimpses of the viscous pour in the form of shimmering ribbons. If purple isn't your thing, the Egg also comes in Bronze, Graphite, and Pink Sugar. A flat bottom stabilizes the plug during storage, and the curved base comfortably adjusts between the cheeks. To top it all off, the size is stamped into the base to simplify future purchases.

Ease of Use

As mentioned, insertion took more prep than usual. While the tip is rounded, the taper isn't sloped enough for steady progression. Additionally, soft silicone may not be sturdy enough to stretch open particularly resistant sphincters. For these reasons, it's not optimal for absolute beginners or arthritic users. Thorough prep, thick lubricant, and appropriately applied pressure are the holy trinity for anal success. Once inside, this comfortable plug is easy riding!

Quality

The Egg is a solid plug. Platinum-Cure Silicone is the highest rated silicone available with this flexibility. It's completely non-porous, body-safe, and resilient. It's flexible enough to provide a marshmallow-y bounce, but stretchy enough to resist tares. That being said, soft silicone is susceptible to creasing and odor absorption. While this isn't a quality issue, it could impact the product's longevity. A foul odor can certainly force a toy into early retirement.

Price

You can add this beauty to your anal arsenal for only $29. Non-motorized silicone plugs range from around $14 to $49, which squeezes the SquarePegToys Egg Plug somewhere in the middle. The unique pleasure imparted by the design was well worth it for me. SquarePegToys and Oxballs dominate the super soft market, so there's little to compare. Although, Lovehoney sells a more affordable option of a similar size; the Super Soft Galaxy Butt Plug is normally priced at $19.99, but it's currently on sale for $9.99. If you hunger to wrap your sphincters around a bouncy toy for less, it's worth considering.

Performance

This plug was comfortable and satisfying during private play. Whether you wish to don it to dinner or strut your peg at a party, the ergonomic egg will remain in place until you surrender. The sensation feels like a realistic dildo, and it's a pleasure to squeeze. When it comes to discretion, the bulky base could certainly be seen through yoga pants. Skirts and loose sweats concealed things well enough, but it's something to keep in mind.

Packaging

The SquarePegToys Egg Plug was shipped in a zip-lock baggie. At first, this felt too basic for such a high-quality item. Then I realized that the toy must be stored upright; this eliminates the utility of a storage bag. Not to mention, prolonged contact with fabric may imprint the weave pattern upon the plug. With this information, plastic became the obvious choice; it protected well from lint and offensive odors during transit. Care instructions are printed upon the front, along with some information about the company. It's, also, less wasteful than throwing out fancy packaging.

Materials and care

Soft silicone requires specialty care, since it's molecularly less dense than other silicones. Softeners in vinyl and rubbers can damage the toy's surface, and these chemicals can leak into lubricant and water. This means no play, cleansing, or storing silicone with such materials. The SquarePegToys Egg Plug can be washed with soap and water. For persistent odors, wipe the surface with pure acetone. Dry with a soft cloth, and store upright to prevent creasing. While silicone can withstand the heat of a dishwasher, it may cause pitting and dull the surface over time.
