What are the Dimensions of the Average Sex Toy?
It’s not stiff like the Big Shot, making it suitable for most users. Its curved design also makes it easy to hit your sweet spots, a tweak that’s always welcome by prostate massage fans. Something else that stood out was the curved shaft that significantly simplified precision. Whether you penetrate with the small or large head, regulating the angle and position of entry was very easy. In the image below, you can see a closeup of the curved shape. The store is easy to browse, and all products are grouped into categories.
Make sure both dildo bases and the suction cup are clean and dust free. Then simply get both ends and the suction cup sides a bit wet (…with water) and stick them all together. You can also use the suction cup to attach a dildo with a smooth, flat, non-suction base to a smooth surface like a wall. The updated and now Tantus-owned POP Dildo is single-density silicone with 6.5 inches of insertable length and is 1.5 inches in diameter. It has a noticeable head to hit the g-spot or prostate, and some light texture on the shaft. It’s compatible with strap-on harnesses and o-rings, and you can boil it or put it in the top rack of a dishwasher to disinfect it—just make sure you remove the accessories first.
The best dildo for you is ultimately going to come down to finding the right mix of size, aesthetics, materials, and features that you need. Dildos may be the most difficult type of sex toy to make blanket statements for a mass audience. Different bodies prefer different types of toys, and we don’t want to limit recommendations to just our personal preferences in size and shape. The Gala Confetti is part of a vast collection of toys curated and produced by Good Vibes under its Pleasure Works banner. The best dildo deals from Good Vibes are on its own merchandise. In short, they told us that the warranty applies on a case-by-case basis.
You can use a dildo in any way that brings you or your partner(s) pleasure—including externally, says Jessica O’Reilly, Ph.D., host of the SexWithDrJess Podcast and expert with Lovehoney. “You might slather it in lube and roll it across your lower back and thighs, or even use it as part of external temperature play,” she says. “Dildos can be an extremely fun addition to solo, partnered, or multi-partnered play, no matter the gender, sex, or sexual orientation of the person or people involved.” Mayla Green has been involved in the sex toy industry since 2004.

For those that are not waterproof, you may have to use a damp cloth. This slightly pricier ($140) ejaculating dildo is one of the hand-pump options we were talking about earlier. The bulbed approach means you can’t use the squirting feature with a strap on harness, but the dildo is also strap on compatible if you just want to use it without squirting. The one downside is you’re limited to squirting the volume of liquid the toy can hold, which is about 1 oz of fluid. You should combine with some kind of supporting underwear or harness for best results. We recommend something like the RodeoH O-jock for double ended dildos (you can use this link to sign up for their rewards program and get 10% off).
Small vibrating dildos are more suitable if you’re planning on buying a dildo for solo masturbation purposes. These dimensions will give you enough sensation while remaining comfortable to use. For anal penetration Realistic Dildos , absolute beginners might want to start with butt plugs before moving on to dildos. If you’re set on an anal dildo, we’d recommend 3.5 inches to 4 inches in insertable length, and 0.8-1 inch in diameter. It’s understandable to be apprehensive about glass toys, since breaking them is an obvious hazard—especially around your most sensitive bits. Still, Heidegger explains that glass dildos, made out of the same tempered or borosilicate glass as your toughest Pyrex dishes, are very safe to use.
Notably, the shaft’s swirls amplify the sensations’ quality whenever you spin it while inside. In addition, the rounded head simplified insertion and made it easy to target the G-spot. Whether playing solo or with a loved one, the piece works out great.
‘Dildos are the original sex toy — and still one of the most versatile and underrated,’ says resident sex and relationships educator at So Divine, Debbie Bere. Sure, nowadays there are so many vibrators, nipple clamps, butt plugs and other exotic beside companions on the market — and they’re all great. But if you’re looking for a versatile sex toy (and you’re a fan of penetration, be it vaginal or anal), you might want to start with a dildo. Lifelike Lover Classic is made from high-quality TPE material, giving it a bendable consistency that’s easy to manipulate during play. The extra soft TPE finish also means the toy is great for people with sensitive sweet spots. Something else we loved about the Lifelike Lover Classic was the realistic design.
It’s an intimate object, and you should feel comfortable with the product and the place you buy it from. Sex shops have a bad reputation, and most people will think of creepy older men in trench coats lining the aisles. I have personally found stores are more likely to have a larger selection of niche toys and more knowledgeable staff. Many products are handmade, and you usually communicate directly with the designers.
