SASSY Anal Plug review

A water-based lube that reviewers say lasts far longer than most, with a thicker consistency that stays put during solo play and holds up through extended toy sessions without constant reapplication.

Reviewers consistently describe this as noticeably thicker than standard water-based lubes, which turns out to be most of the appeal. It stays where you put it and doesn't thin out or dry up quickly, which means fewer interruptions to reapply. One reviewer put it plainly: "lasts forever ensuring minimal interruptions from playtime".

The texture gets mentioned often — smooth without being slippery in a way that feels uncertain, and no scent or taste that anyone noticed. Several people who'd tried multiple water-based options said this one outlasted the rest by enough to matter.

Where it performs best is solo play and toy use. Multiple reviewers noted it's excellent for that — the thicker formula means it doesn't migrate or break down as quickly when there's friction involved. A few mentioned it doesn't last quite as long during partnered sex, though it still does the job.

Because it's water-based, it rinses off easily and doesn't leave residue on skin or fabric. It's compatible with all toy materials, which is why several reviewers specifically bought it for use with silicone toys where silicone lube isn't an option.

The performance subscore sits at 95 and the satisfaction score at 90, which tracks with what people actually say: it does what it's meant to do, and does it well enough that they keep using it.

This suits anyone who finds standard water-based lubes too thin or who gets frustrated by constant reapplication during toy play. If you've been through multiple bottles trying to find one that actually lasts, this is the one reviewers say finally did.

It's particularly good for solo sessions and toy use, where the thicker consistency and longevity matter most. Several reviewers bought it specifically for anal play with plugs and said it held up well.

If you're looking for something primarily for partnered sex, a few reviewers noted it doesn't last quite as long in that context — still functional, but not the standout performer it is for toy use. You might want a different formula for that, or just accept you'll reapply occasionally.

At 4 inches insertable length and an ease subscore of 65, this is accessible for most users, though complete beginners might want to start smaller and work up.

The plug itself is PVC, which is porous and cannot be sterilised. That means keeping it to one person, giving it a fresh condom each time if you're sharing, and replacing it sooner than you would a silicone or glass toy.

Wash it with warm water and mild soap after each use, let it dry completely, and store it somewhere it won't pick up dust or lint. PVC can degrade over time, especially if exposed to heat or certain other materials, so keep it in its own pouch or compartment.

Because it's porous, bacteria can settle into the material even after cleaning. If it starts to feel tacky, smell odd, or show any surface changes, replace it — that's the material breaking down, not something you can wash away.

We've compared this directly to the b-vibe Snug Plug 4. That comparison covers material, size, and how the two perform across the subscores we track — useful if you're deciding between a budget PVC option and a premium silicone one.

This sits within the butt plugs subcategory, where we've scored 110 products. It ranks well — Coyscore of 85 puts it in the top third, and the performance subscore of 95 is among the highest we've recorded.

If you want to see how it compares to the rest of the category, the full ranking is on the best butt plugs page. That covers everything from beginner-friendly tapered plugs to larger advanced options, all scored the same way.

So should you actually buy it?

Yes, if you want a water-based lube that genuinely lasts and you're using it primarily for solo play or toys. Reviewers are consistent: it's thicker, it stays put, and it doesn't dry out quickly. The performance and satisfaction scores back that up.

The one caveat is that a few people found it didn't last quite as long during partnered sex, though it still worked fine. If that's your main use case, you might want a different formula.

The material is PVC, so it won't last as long as a silicone plug and needs more careful hygiene. But at this price and with this level of performance, it's a solid choice for most users.
