Butt Masturbator Guide: Weight, Positions and Drying

Short answer: a butt masturbator is a heavy silicone toy shaped as a creature's hindquarters, with one or two channels, made to be used hands-free on a bed. Choose it by weight first (around 1 to 1.5 kg is easy to wash and move, over 2 kg stays put but takes more effort), then by single or dual entry, opening width and channel depth. Warm it, lube the channel well, and plan for proper drying: that is the part people underestimate.

Butt masturbators are the most immersive toys in the furry range, and the biggest purchase. This guide covers what the numbers mean in practice, how to use one comfortably, and how to look after something that can weigh as much as a bag of flour, or several.

What is a butt masturbator?

It is a sculpted rear, often of a horse, dragon, fox, wolf or fantasy creature, cast in silicone with channels inside. Some lie on their back with legs up, some stand on all fours, some are shaped like a pony or a dragon at rest. Because of their weight, you do not hold them like a sleeve. They sit on the bed and you move against them, which is exactly why people buy them.

Weight: the number that changes everything

Weight	What it means	Examples
1.1 kg to 1.5 kg	Stable on a bed, easy to wash in the shower or sink, light enough to reposition with one hand.	Zyralis 1,104 g, Inferno 1,163 g, Nereid 1,168 g
1.5 kg to 2 kg	Does not slide during use. Still manageable in the shower with two hands.	Blossom 1,530 g, Luna 1,711 g, Titan 1,780 g
2 kg to 2.5 kg	The most realistic heft. Needs a plan for washing and drying.	Nivara 2,047 g, Posy 2,057 g, Hahama 2,439 g
Almost 8 kg	A centrepiece. Lives on the bed or a dedicated surface.	Bronta 7,966 g

Heavier is not better, it is different. If you have never owned one, staying under about 1.6 kg is the sensible start.

Single or dual entry?

Single entry: one channel, usually deeper and with a single texture. Simpler to clean. Luna reaches 20 cm deep, Nereid 21 cm.

Dual entry: two separate channels, typically a vaginal-style and an anal-style opening, each with its own texture and tightness. More variety, twice the cleaning. On most dual pieces, the anal channel is the narrower and shorter one.

Opening width and depth

The opening width is the diameter of the entrance at rest, and it decides how tight the first contact feels. In our range, openings go from 1 cm (very tight, like Bronta's anal channel) to 7 cm (roomy, like Nereid). Silicone stretches, so a small number means a firmer grip, not that it will not fit. Depth runs from about 10 to 21 cm; 14 cm and more suits most people.

Good butt masturbators to start with

Lightest options: Zyralis (lizard, single entry, 18 cm deep, 4.5 cm opening, 1,104 g) or Nereid (mermaid, 21 cm deep with a roomy 7 cm opening, 1,168 g).

First dual entry: Inferno, a winged dragon at 1,163 g with a 14 cm and an 11 cm channel. Or Ember (1,406 g) if you want two equally roomy 19 cm channels.

Horse lovers: Titan (1,780 g, dual entry) or Posy (2,057 g, pony). For the full experience, Hahama at 2,439 g with a 19 cm channel.

Canines and foxes: Luna (wolf, 20 cm deep), Nivara (arctic fox, two 15.5 cm channels).

How to use a butt masturbator

1. Warm it. Silicone starts at room temperature. Let warm (not hot) water run through the channels, or rest the toy in a basin of warm water for a few minutes. Dry the outside before use.
2. Lube inside the channel. Squeeze a generous amount of water-based lube into the opening, plus a little on you. Reapply when it starts to drag.
3. Set it up. On the bed, on a towel. A pillow or wedge under it raises it to the right height. Pushing it against the headboard or a wall stops it sliding.
4. Find your position. Kneeling behind it is the most common. Lying on top works with lighter pieces. Heavier ones work well at the edge of the bed while you stand.
5. Go slow at first. Let the opening stretch around you. Tighter channels feel most intense in the first strokes.

How to clean and dry a heavy butt masturbator

This is the part that decides how long your toy lasts.

1. Clean straight away, before the lube dries.
2. In the shower or bathtub for anything over 1.5 kg. Flush each channel with warm water, then a little mild unscented soap or toy cleaner worked in with your fingers.
3. Rinse until no soap remains.
4. Drain: tilt the toy opening-down for a few minutes so water runs out.
5. Dry inside: push a loosely rolled paper towel or a clean cloth into each channel to absorb the water, and change it when soaked.
6. Air-dry 24 hours, openings down or angled on a towel, before storing.

If a toy has fur, the fur rules apply: no water on the plush, no heat. Details in how to clean a furry masturbator.

Storage

• Store it dry and lying in its natural position, not squeezed into a box that deforms it.
• Keep it out of direct sunlight and away from other toys pressing against it for long periods.
• A pillowcase or cotton bag keeps dust off the silicone.

FAQ

What is the best butt masturbator for a beginner?

One of the lighter pieces, around 1.1 to 1.2 kg, like Zyralis, Nereid or Inferno. Easy to wash, easy to move, and enough weight to stay put.

How heavy should a butt masturbator be?

Around 1 to 2 kg is the sweet spot for most people: heavy enough to stay put, light enough to wash in the shower.

How do you dry the inside of a masturbator?

Drain it opening-down, then push a rolled paper towel into the channel to wick the water out. Let it air-dry for a day before storing.

Can I use silicone lube?

No. Use water-based lube. Silicone lube can damage silicone toys over time.

Is a horse butt masturbator different from other butt masturbators?

The shape and proportions are equine, and horse pieces tend to be on the heavy side (1.8 to 2.4 kg in our range). Use and care are the same.
