Want to buy this toy but nervous about the material

https://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=29780

I got super-excited about this toy when I first saw it, it's just the size and shape I wanted for my next level experimentation. However, I'm nervous about the PVC material, having read some advice on various well respected sites.

Can someone either put my mind at rest about the material, or point me at something else on Lovehoney that might do the same or similar. It needs to be increasing sized balls/beads, with a suction cup base.

Unfortunately I can’t see anything else that meets your requirements. There are a couple of butt plug toys that have increasing sizes of beads but with no suction cup such as https://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=32085 https://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=30916 https://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=31110 If the suction cup is the important bit, you may have to look at dildos which don’t have beads but may flare out a bit. PVC is porous so you are running a risk each time you use it. A condom might help but there is no definitive answer as to whether it will. If you really can’t find anything better, buy it and just make sure you check it thoroughly before each use. Any signs of mold or discolouration stop using. And if you get any irritation, stop using it. Ideally, replace it as soon as possible.

I don’t have that one specifically but I do have one with the same material, so far because of the material I have been using a condom over it each time I use it and wash straight away after I use it, and dry with a towel. As said above check it before each use and just be extra careful with it, knowing about the risks with the material is the best thing because you will automatically be extra careful in making sure it’s 110% clean and dry and your going to check it over more just to put your mind at rest I find.. so far I have been fine but it’s not like I’ve had it for any great length of time, I’ve had mine about a month now. I keep looking for others to replace it with so I don’t have to stress so much over the material but it does the job so for now it’s fine. Hope this helps

I have several pvc anal toys and they are fine, the material smells a bit at first and can be a bit grabby for anal but with lube and some break in there are no issues with it IMO. Clean with soapy water. On the other hand, I would reccomend the Doc Johnson B-7 plug. It’s a bettter toy than the one you linked and while it’s a little bigger in minimum girth, it is the ideal toy to transition to larger things. You can also get a suction cup that works with it for about a fiver. And it’s made of one of the best anal materials going hands down.

Thanks, I've actually just ordered the first one you listed, so I might just try with that for a while and wait to see if anything else comes up. If I get too curious I might follow your advice, buy it and just be extra extra careful.

Thanks, I think I might delay purchase as mentioned above, see how my current new purchases go. I might return to it if I don't find anything better, and take the extra precaution of using condoms, just makes it a little more complicated than is idea.

I've been looking at that too, but this one I was particularly interested in because of the increasing size bulbs, it intrigues me. I've got a reasonably sized realistic dildo that I do enjoy because of the 'head', which it seems would be a similar sensation to the B-7 you suggested, if not quite as girthy. I'll definitely add the B-7 to my list for the future though, thanks.

This is the B7, it is a plug with three progressively larger bumps, but the bumps are more pronounced and stimulating. There is also a B-7 dildo that has a pronounced head, but not what I was suggesting.

Honestly, anyone anally inclined that likes or wants to go a little or a lot girthy, the B-7 plug is a must have IMO. A person couldnt go far wrong only purchasing Doc Johnsons bombshell line in fact. The material is so good and the shapes, while on the larger side, are really good fun.

I personally wouldn’t use or recommend the pvc toy, or anything made from that material for that matter, but it is hard to find silicone alternatives that meet all of your criteria as you move up in size so I appreciate that there’s a bit of a dilemma.

The closest thing that comes to mind is the Fun Factory Bouncer - it has internal balls in the shaft that jiggle, add some weight and increase to a decent girth.

Ahh, my mistake, I did a search for B7 and found the dildo. Now that looks a bit more like it. I think I'll get that and the Vac-u-lock suction cup you mentioned and see how it fairs. Thanks for the guideance.

Thanks, I think I've been convinced that the PVC option is just too risky, no point spoiling the fun by being constantly worried about side effects. That Fun Factory Bouncer looks cool, added to my list, thanks.

PVC gets a bad rap IMO, going into larger toys, especially dildos there are only a few options short of the 300 quid silicone dildos. The King Cock dildos are all PVC and they are excellent. I have three now and all get used regularly and I have never had a problem with any of them. I dont worry about them or go to any extra lengths to clean them, they get warm soapy water like the rest and then a dusting of cornflour to ensure they are completely dry and non-tacky and then they go in the toy box with the rest. I have used condoms on PVC dildos for comfort and it works fine for that but I do have one now that no condom will fit so. . I cant speak for a womans experience with PVC however.
