How to choose a dildo

The best dildos for you come down to four things: material, size, shape and base. Get those right and the rest is personal taste.

Pick a body-safe material

Platinum-cure silicone is the everyday favorite: soft, flexible, nonporous and easy to clean. Browse silicone dildos if you want one toy that lasts for years. Glass dildos are rigid and smooth, hold warmth or coolness well and are simple to sterilize. Pair any silicone toy with water-based lube, since silicone lube can wear down some silicone surfaces.

Size it honestly

Girth matters more than length for comfort. If you are new, start around 1.25 to 1.5 inches in diameter with 5 to 6 inches of insertable length. You can always size up later, and experienced users who want more fullness have plenty of larger options to choose from.

Choose a shape and feel

  • Realistic: veining, a defined head and sometimes a scrotum. See realistic dildos.
  • Curved: a gentle bend for G-spot or prostate contact. Many shoppers looking for a dildo for women start here.
  • Smooth or abstract: easy to clean and less literal in appearance.
  • Dual density: a firm core inside a softer outer layer for a more natural feel.

Check the base

A suction cup base lets you use the toy hands-free on a smooth surface such as a shower wall. A flared base is required for any anal use. A harness-compatible base lets the same dildo toy work with strap-on harnesses, which makes it a smart buy for couples who want to share.

Dildos: common questions

What size dildo should a beginner buy?
Most beginners do well with a dildo about 1.25 to 1.5 inches wide and 5 to 6 inches of insertable length. Width affects comfort more than length, so focus on diameter first. A smooth, slightly flexible silicone toy is forgiving while you learn what feels good.
What is the safest material for a dildo?
Body-safe silicone, glass and stainless steel are the safest dildo materials because they are nonporous and can be cleaned thoroughly. Avoid toys with a strong chemical smell or vague material labels. Silicone is the most popular choice for comfort, while glass and steel suit people who like a firm feel.
Can I use a dildo for anal play?
Only if it has a flared base or a wide suction cup that cannot slip inside. Toys without a base can be drawn into the body and may require medical help to remove. Use plenty of lube, go slowly and choose a smaller size than you would for vaginal use.
How do I clean a silicone dildo?
Wash a silicone dildo with warm water and mild soap or a toy cleaner after every use, then let it air dry. Non-vibrating silicone dildos can usually be boiled for a few minutes or washed on the top rack of a dishwasher, but check the product instructions first.
