Firefly Pleasure Plug Small Blue review

Scored against every public review we could find for a product in Butt Plugs.

A smooth, beginner-friendly plug that reviewers consistently describe as comfortable and easy to use — and one of the few that glows in the dark, which is either charming or entirely beside the point depending on your priorities.

What it is actually like

Reviewers report a smooth, comfortable experience that doesn't ask much of you. The material is soft enough that most people find it easy to work with, and the taper is gentle — the small size really does mean small, though a few buyers found the blue one larger than they expected when stepping up from the pink or yellow in the same range.

The suction cup base gets mentioned often, mostly by people using it solo. It holds well on smooth surfaces and means you can use both hands for other things, which is half the point of a base like that. The flared design also means it stays put once it's in, which reviewers describe as reassuring rather than intrusive.

Cleaning is straightforward — warm water and mild soap, and the smooth surface means nothing gets trapped. Several reviewers specifically noted how simple it is to store, which suggests it doesn't attract dust or need special care between uses.

The glow-in-the-dark feature is real, though you'll need to charge it under a light first. Some people love it, some ignore it entirely. It doesn't affect how the plug performs, but it does make it easier to find in the dark if that's ever a concern.

Reviewers who've used it during partnered sex say it makes things more enjoyable, though they don't elaborate much beyond that. The ease-of-use score sits at 90, and the satisfaction subscore is 97 — both well above average for the category — which suggests most people who try it are happy they did.

This one suits anyone new to anal play, or anyone who wants something comfortable and low-effort.

Who it suits

If you're new to anal play or looking for something that won't demand much from you, this is a strong choice. Reviewers consistently describe it as beginner-friendly, and the ease and satisfaction scores back that up. The small size is genuinely small, which is exactly what you want when you're starting out.

It also suits people who want something they can use solo without fuss — the suction cup base is stable and the plug itself is light enough (70 grams) that it doesn't shift around once it's in place.

If you're looking for significant stretch or intensity, this isn't it. A few reviewers mentioned stepping up to the blue after the pink and yellow, which suggests there's a progression in the range, but the small blue is still on the gentler end. If you already know you want something more substantial, look at the medium or large options in the same line, or at plugs with a more pronounced taper.

One note: we don't have the material spec for this one, so we can't tell you how to sterilise it or whether it's porous. That means you'll want to keep it to one person and consider using a condom over it if you're sharing.

Where it sits

This sits in the butt plug category, and it's one of the higher-scoring options we track — a Coyscore of 90 puts it well above the category median. It's particularly strong on ease of use and satisfaction, which is exactly what you'd want from a beginner-focused plug.

If you're comparing across the category, the full ranking is in our best butt plugs guide. That page breaks down the top-scoring options by material, size and what reviewers actually say about them.

So should you buy it?

Questions people ask

Is this product suitable for beginners? Yes — 42% of the review themes mention beginner-friendliness, and reviewers consistently describe it as easy to use and comfortable.

Is it easy to clean? Yes. Reviewers say it's simple to clean and store, and the smooth surface doesn't trap anything.

Does it have a suction cup base? Yes, and reviewers mention it specifically as useful for solo play. It holds well on smooth surfaces.

The short version

Yes, if you're new to anal play or want something comfortable and low-effort. The ease and satisfaction scores are both high, reviewers consistently describe it as beginner-friendly, and the suction cup base makes solo use straightforward.

The main limitation is that we don't have the material spec, so you'll need to treat it as porous — keep it to one person and consider using a condom if you're sharing. If you need something you can sterilise, look for a plug with a confirmed silicone or glass spec.

Otherwise, this is a solid choice that does exactly what it says it will.
