Rimmers Model M Curved Rimming Plug review

A vibrating plug with rotating beads designed to mimic the sensation of rimming — and reviewers are split on whether it actually does. The vibrations are strong and the body-safe materials are reassuring, but if you're expecting the soft, wet tickle of a tongue, this won't deliver it. What it does offer is a distinct kind of stimulation that plenty of people find very pleasurable, even if it's not quite what the name promises.

The Model M uses a combination of vibration and spinning beads positioned near the base to create sensation around the anal opening. Reviewers consistently say the vibrations are strong and the rimming action is noticeable — one called it "amazing", another praised the "good vibes and very nice rimming action". It's body-safe, which matters when you're using something internally, and the curved shape is intended to reach the prostate.

The catch is that it doesn't feel like actual rimming. Several reviewers were clear about this: real rimming is soft, wet, almost ticklish; the Model M works by rotating hard beads around your entrance, which is a different sensation entirely. One reviewer put it plainly — "it doesn't feel at all like rimming". Another said the sensations were pleasurable and quite different from other vibrating plugs, but still not what you'd get from a partner.

So what you're getting is a plug that vibrates well and adds a mechanical rotating element that some people love and others find just okay. It's not subtle — the beads are doing something you'll definitely notice — and if you're curious about layered sensation or want something that does more than just vibrate, this delivers. If you're hoping it will replace or closely mimic oral play, it won't.

One practical note: some reviewers mentioned that the slimmer versions in the Rimmers range only vibrate rather than offering the rimming action, so check which model you're getting if that feature matters to you.

This suits people who are comfortable with anal play and curious about adding a mechanical element to vibration. If you've used plugs before and want to try something that does more than sit there and buzz, the rotating beads offer a distinct kind of stimulation that reviewers found very pleasurable — even if it's not quite what the name suggests.

It's not ideal for beginners. At 5.7 inches insertable and with a mechanism that adds complexity, it asks more of you than a straightforward first plug would. And if you're specifically looking for something that replicates the feeling of oral rimming, this won't do it — the beads are firm and mechanical, not soft and wet.

If you want strong vibrations, body-safe materials and are happy to experiment with a sensation that's interesting rather than realistic, this is worth considering. If you need it to feel like a tongue, look elsewhere.

The Model M sits within the anal vibrators category, where it competes with plugs that vibrate, rotate, or do both. It's one of the few that attempts a rimming action specifically, which makes it unusual — though as the reviews make clear, unusual doesn't always mean better.

We've ranked it alongside other anal vibrators in our best anal vibrators guide, where you can see how it compares on vibration strength, ease of use and overall satisfaction. If you're weighing up whether the rimming feature is worth it, that's the place to look.

Does the Rimmers Model M truly simulate rimming? While it offers pleasurable sensations with rotating beads, some users note it doesn't fully replicate the soft, wet, and ticklish feeling of actual rimming. It's a different, though enjoyable, sensation.

Is the Rimmers Model M body-safe? Yes, the Rimmers Model M is confirmed to be body-safe.

A vibrating plug with rotating beads that creates a distinct sensation — just not the one the name promises. Reviewers love the strong vibrations and find the rimming action pleasurable, but it doesn't feel like oral play. If you're after layered stimulation and are comfortable with something mechanical rather than realistic, it's worth a look. If you want it to feel like a tongue, it won't.

Body-safe materials, strong performance, and a feature set that's genuinely different from most plugs. Just know what you're getting.

The Rimmers Model M Curved Rimming Plug is available for $189.95.
