Design and materials
This plug uses SilexD's dual density SILEXPAN® construction, which combines a softer outer layer with a firmer inner core. The result is a toy that feels substantial without being inflexible, striking a balance between structure and give. The 9.3 cm length and 4 cm diameter place it in the medium range, making it suitable for those with some experience.
The tapered tip is designed to ease insertion, narrowing gradually towards the widest point of the plug. A suction base sits at the bottom, providing stability and hands-free options depending on the surface. The whole toy is made from body-safe silicone, which is non-porous and designed to be durable over time.
What it's like to use
The tapered design means you're not immediately confronted with the plug's full width; the gradual increase allows the body to adjust progressively. Once inserted, the dual density construction provides a firm presence without feeling harsh. The suction base can create a gentle hold on smooth surfaces, though this isn't guaranteed everywhere.
Being non-motorised, this is entirely manual—there's no learning curve with buttons or controls, and no batteries to manage. Insertion and removal are straightforward processes, especially with the tapered tip easing the way in.
Cleaning and care
Silicone is among the easiest toy materials to clean. You can wash it with warm water and mild soap, or use a toy cleaner designed for silicone. Because it's non-porous, it doesn't trap bacteria or dirt in the way some other materials can. Once clean and dry, store it somewhere cool and away from direct sunlight to keep the silicone in good condition over time.
Buy it if
You're looking for a no-fuss, reliable plug without vibration or complicated features. The medium size suits those with prior experience who want something more substantial than an entry-level toy. You also value easy maintenance and durability, and prefer body-safe materials. The tapered tip makes it a practical choice if smooth, gradual insertion is important to you.
Skip it if
You're entirely new to anal play—a smaller starter plug might be more appropriate. You want added sensation from vibration or texture; this is a simple, smooth toy. You need a toy with specific positioning features for hands-free use, since the suction base's effectiveness depends on your available surfaces.
The bottom line
The SilexD Medium is a well-constructed, practical butt plug that prioritises comfort and ease of use. Its dual density silicone gives it a realistic feel without unnecessary complexity, and body-safe materials mean you can use it with confidence. For those past the beginner stage who want a reliable, low-maintenance toy, it's a sensible choice.
Frequently asked questions
Is this toy suitable for beginners?
The medium size is better suited to those with some experience. SilexD offers small and large sizes too, so beginners might find the smaller option more appropriate to start with.
Does the suction base work on all surfaces?
Suction bases work best on smooth, non-porous surfaces like tile, glass or some plastics. Effectiveness varies depending on what surface you're using, so results aren't guaranteed everywhere.
What's the difference between dual density and regular silicone?
Dual density construction combines a softer outer layer with a firmer inner core, creating a toy that's flexible yet structured. Standard silicone is uniform throughout, whereas this design aims to mimic a more realistic feel.
How should I store this toy?
Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Many people use a dedicated pouch or box to keep it protected and separate from other items.
Can I use this toy with other partners?
Like all toys, proper cleaning between uses (or before sharing) is essential. Wash thoroughly with soap and water or toy cleaner before and after each use.
