Features to consider when choosing a suction cup dildo
There are several criteria that you should keep in mind when buying a suction cup dildo. We explain below which different features you should consider when buying this type of dildo:
Material
When buying a dildo, the material plays a major role for most people. Here it is important to explore your preferences and decide on the right material. Those who like the real feel opt for softer materials such as silicone, latex, TPE or ABS plastic. Others prefer strange materials such as glass or stainless steel to stimulate themselves when making love. No matter which material you choose, you should pay attention to materials that are not harmful to health.
Size: Insertable, overall length, and diameter
The size and diameter of a dildo are also determined by your preference. While some users prefer large giant dildos, others take it easy and use smaller ones. There is even the option of having your partner’s penis reproduced down to the last detail. In this way, this can at least partially be replaced if you are absent.
For beginners, a dildo with a diameter or circumference of 4.5 inches and an insertable length of 6.5 inches (like the
Lovehoney Curved Dildo) is enough. More experienced users can choose those with longer size and wider diameter.
If it’s suitable for anal use
Not all dildos are ideal for anal use. However, if you need a suction cup dildo that is ideal for anal use, look for a beaded model that has increasing beads like the Beaded Black Anal Dildo with Suction Cup Base. This gradual increase in size makes it suitable for beginners and pros.
Realistic/unrealistic design
Dildos come in realistic and unrealistic designs. The realistic ones have the texture and veined design that make them look like the male sex organ. They have life-like glans and testicles which brings the feeling close to real. Meanwhile, others like the Beaded Black Anal Dildo with Suction Cup Base are different in material, size, and design and just look to satisfy you. With the shape, it depends on whether you prefer it to be as natural as possible or more abstract. Some dildos are modeled exactly on an erect penis, and there are dildos for which the actual purpose can only be guessed at.
With or without balls
Without balls, a dildo has an increased insertable length. However, with balls, the toy looks more real and you have something to play with.
What lubricants can be used with suction cup dildos?
There are generally three types of lubes for suction cup dildos (it all depends on the material). Water-based lubes are easily washable, do not leave any stain, are suitable for use in oral sex, suitable for silicone dildos, but not suitable for sex toys made of unpainted wood.
Silicone as a base for lubricant gel is more economical than water-based or oil-based lubricants. Just a few drops are enough for an extensive love game. The lubricity is high and lasts a relatively long time.
However, you should not use silicone-based lubricants on silicone sex toys. It makes the smooth surface rough and brittle and attacks them.
Also, TPE and TPR as a dildo material is not well tolerated by silicone-based lubricants. The gel can also stain the bedsheet.
For people who are allergic to preservatives, oil-based lubricants can be an alternative. However, it is not suitable for sex toys made of silicone or latex, as it can deform or dissolve the material. The surface of condoms can also be destroyed by using oil-based lubricants.
