There are a variety of shapes and colors to choose from when choosing a dildo for your solo or couples play but many of them require you to use your hands to give you the stimulation you’re looking for. To give you hands-free pleasure, you may want to try out a suction cup dildo. These come in many shapes, sizes, and colors, so you can get the perfect toy to meet your needs.

Once you’ve chosen one of these sex toys to try out, it is time to learn how to use a suction cup dildo. They are quite versatile, so you can stick them to almost any smooth, flat surface in your home. You can also try out a few different positions for amazing pleasure. If you’re not sure where to start with your suction cup dildo, check out the following sections for some sexy new ideas to add to your routine.

Best positions for a suction cup dildo

There are two main positions to try out when using your suction cup dildo when it comes to mounting it to whichever surface you’re trying out. A vertical surface, like a wall or headboard, allows you to face the dildo once it is in place or turn around and use it for some vaginal or anal stimulation from behind. This can be a bit awkward at times, depending on the surface you’ve attached your dildo to, so keep this in mind when choosing your surface.

Mounting the dildo on a horizontal surface, like the floor or toilet seat, is a bit less awkward and gives you more control over your movements without dealing with any lower back pressure from strange positioning. You may need to deal with some height issues, though, depending on where you’re using your dildo. Be sure to find a spot that makes the dildo easy to use instead of fighting to get the rhythm and positioning needed for pleasurable stimulation.

Basic rules for secure mounting

To ensure that you’re suction cup dildo is going to stay where you put it, there are a few things to remember. First, be sure the suction cup is clean, with no dirt or dust collected on the surface. A dirty suction cup won’t stick as well as a clean one and could move or come loose in the middle of a vigorous masturbation session.

You’ll also need to choose the right surface to secure your suction cup dildo to. The surface needs to be smooth and flat, with no bumps or ridges since these could break the seal on the suction and prevent it from sticking.

This gives you more options than you may think since you can attach your suction cup to the flat seat of a chair, a wall, a mirror, or anything else that comes to mind. Make sure the surface is clean and dry to create the right amount of suction for the dildo to hold tight to the surface.

16 places to mount a suction cup dildo on

There are a few different options available when choosing a suction cup dildo. If you prefer one that looks and feels like an actual penis, you can pick one like the King Cock Ultra Realistic Suction Cup Dildo with Ball. There also models like the Wall Banger Suction Cup Rabbit Vibrator, which offers G-spot and clitoral stimulation at the same time. No matter which one you choose, there are several areas in your home that you can try them out on.

1.     Bathroom wall

Bathroom walls are a good option for mounting your suction cup dildo. They are exposed to moisture daily, so they are usually made of materials that are smooth, flat, and easy to clean before and after your session. They are also often made of tile, which is a fantastic material for creating the perfect seal needed to keep the dildo firmly in place. You can adjust the height on these walls as needed to give you the perfect positioning as well for added convenience.

2.     Bathtub edge

Attaching the suction cup dildo to the edge or lip of the bathtub allows you to straddle the toy with one leg outside of the tub and the other inside it. You can ride the dildo this way for as long as you need to. It is also easy to wipe down a tub when you’re finished.

3.     Bathtub side

Another option for a suction cup dildo mount is the side of the bathtub, which positions the toy so it is at a horizontal angle. This allows you to lay back with your legs over the sides of the tub or you can flip over onto your hands and knees and try out some doggy-style penetration.

4.     Shower wall

For those who have a shower stall instead of a full bathtub, a shower wall is a great place to try out your suction cup dildo. Start by attaching the dildo to the wall, adjusting the height as needed. Do not attach it to the shower door on a box-style stall since these do not lock and could fly open during your session. The doors are also more fragile than the rest of the shower, so it is best to use the walls to avoid any damage to the shower itself.

Once the dildo is attached to your liking, you can face the toy or turn around and brace yourself against the opposite wall, using the toy to penetrate you from behind. You may want to try out using the toy before you turn on the water to make sure it is comfortable for you. Once you have practiced in the confines of the shower stall, you can turn on the water and use it for some simulated shower sex with the sexy man of your dreams.

5.     Floor

The floor of your bathroom, kitchen, or any other room in your home is also a good area to try out. The floor needs to be smooth and flat to ensure the toy holds tight and the suction stays strong, even when you’re riding it a bit aggressively. This is a favorite option for many people since it allows gravity to do much of the work for you to make your job even easier. Make sure the floor is clean of any dust, hair, or other debris and disinfected before you start to make sure everything is as clean as possible.

6.     Window

The glass of a window is another excellent place to mount your suction cup dildo. You need to be a bit careful, depending on how thin the glass is, to be sure you don’t break it with your vigorous activities. You also need to clean it well to ensure there is no debris, residue, or moisture on the window that could affect the suction seal. Depending on the height of the window, you may also be able to adjust the placement of the dildo to suit your height as well for more comfortable positioning.

7.     Mirror

The glass of a mirror is similar to the glass of a window, so you need to be careful to avoid breaking it during use. A full-length mirror can be hung anywhere, giving you multiple options on where you can enjoy your suction cup dildo. They also offer multiple height adjustments, so you try it vaginally while facing the mirror with your back arched to give you a great view or you can turn around and use the mirror for some anal play whenever you like. Mirrors need a bit of extra TLC when cleaning to be sure you get rid of any lubricant and bodily fluids when you’re finished.

8.     Door

The flat surface of a door is a great place to try out since they can latch closed, plus you can lock them if needed to make sure they are as secure as possible. Though interior doors between the rooms of your house are a good option, the exterior doors are usually much thicker, giving you a more stable surface for your vigorous sexual activities.

Be sure to attach the suction cup dildo onto the right side of the door. This is the side that won’t swing open when you push against it. The last thing you want is for the door to open away from you during your masturbation session. You should also check if the wood of the door has been painted since the suction cup could cause the paint to chip when you’re removing it from the door when you’re done.

9.     Thin wall strip

If you have a thin strip of wall, this is one of the best places to try out your suction cup dildo. Regular walls force you to flatten against the wall and arch your back to face the toy but thinner wall strips don’t have this issue. You can put your knees on either side of the wall and grip the sides of it as the toy penetrates you, keeping you in a more comfortable position during your sessions.

This area is also great for those who like to get down on their hands and knees to be penetrated from behind. You can stick your feet and lower legs on either side of the wall, getting your private areas as close to it as needed for those deep, penetrating thrusts.

10.  Nightstand

A nightstand is one of the best options for sticking your suction cup dildo to since they come in varying heights, so you can keep one that is the perfect height for your body next to your bed for your masturbation sessions as well as the usual nightstand duties. The best option is to secure the dildo near the corner of the nightstand and then wedge this area between your thighs. This allows you to lean forward with the rest of the nightstand surface in front of you to lean on for complete control of your movements and penetration techniques.

11.  Bed frame

If you have a wooden bed frame, you can use one of the sides to stick your dildo to. Depending on the height of the bed, you can lay flat with your legs up, knees bent, and feet on the mattress or you can position yourself on your hands and knees for vaginal or anal penetration.

12.  Headboard

A smooth, solid headboard isn’t the easiest option but it can offer some fantastic pleasure if you can get the positioning right. You may need to adjust the mattress to give you some room for your feet in the doggy-style position for vaginal or anal masturbation. You can also try with your feet up against the wall if you’re feeling a bit adventurous but you do need a firmer mattress to prevent sagging as you thrust.

13.  Chair

Wooden or plastic chairs are the best places to use your suction cup dildo for many reasons. They are sturdy, portable, and allow you to get nice and comfortable for a long session. The surface of the seat needs to be completely flat for this to work since a curved one may not create the right seal for the suction cup to hold tight to. You can sit with your feet forward as you normally would in a chair or you can turn around and use the back of the chair for support as you move.

14.  Toilet seat

Like the chair, the lid of a toilet seat is flat and smooth, plus it is the perfect height for a comfortable seated position. Be sure to clean the seat thoroughly to get rid of any germs and bacteria that may have accumulated on the lid. Then attach your dildo securely and climb on for some fantastic stimulation. Using the toilet seat also means you’re in the best room for cleanup when you’re finished your session.

15.  Countertop edge

The edge of a countertop allows you to position the suction cup dildo so that it is pointing towards you, making it easy to slide it in where it needs to be to hit the g-spot perfectly. This spot also has the advantage of giving you a place to hang onto as you move your hips. You can even lean over the counter for some extra momentum for those powerful orgasms.

16.  Your desk

A desk is another place you can try out, though it may be a bit tricky, depending on your height and the height of your desk. You can stick the suction cup dildo to a corner, similar to the way you’d use a nightstand. If your desk is quite sturdy with a large surface area, you may also be able to stick the dildo near the middle, allowing you to sit right on it like a chair. This gives you a few different options to try out to see which one suits you best.

What places and surfaces do not suit

Though you can use your favorite suction cup dildo almost anywhere, there are a few places you should avoid. Hard, flat, smooth surfaces give you a tight seal for your suction cup, but uneven textures won’t allow the suction cup to stick so firmly, creating air pockets that could make it impossible for it to hold on, especially once you start using it.

You should also avoid any soft areas, like pillows, carpets, beanbag chairs, or even wooden chairs with upholstered seats. The suction cup won’t even come close to sticking on these. Smaller movable items also aren’t a great option since you need something that is going to stay put while you use it, especially for those rough sessions.

How to use a suction cup dildo: the process

Once you’ve chosen your toy for the evening, it’s time to learn how to use a suction dildo. There are a few techniques to choose from when it comes to how to ride a dildo, so you can try them all out or stick to your favorites.

Choose a private place and secure mounting surface

The first step to using your suction cup dildo is to choose the area you’re going to be using it on. Any of the options we’ve described above will work well but you can also try anywhere else you like, as long as it is a private place that ensures you can take the time you need for your masturbation session without any unwanted interruptions. Wipe the area you plan to mount your toy to make sure it is clean of any dirt or debris.

Clean your toy

You should also clean your toy before using it, even if you gave it a thorough cleaning after your last session. Toys can pick up dust and dirt, even when stored in a drawer or case, so it is best to clean all of this off of your dildo before you get started. Use some gentle soap and warm water or a dedicated toy cleanser. Then dry it thoroughly. Now your toy is ready to use.

Mount it

Mount your toy on the designated area you’ve chosen. Stick the suction to the surface and press down to make sure it seals properly. If you’re using a nightstand, chair, or another surface that you’ll be straddling, check to see if the dildo is positioned properly to be comfortable when using it. For wall, mirror, or other vertical areas, you will also need to determine if it is the proper height for your body. If the positioning isn’t right, remove the dildo, adjust the position, and secure it again.

Warm yourself up

Warming yourself up is a must when using any type of dildo. Not only does this set the mood, but it also gets those internal juices flowing. There are a lot of ways to do this, though you may want to start by dimming the lights, turning on some music, and maybe even lighting some candles.

You can also try reading some erotica or watching porn to get you in the mood. Touching your body, including your breasts, legs, neck, and vaginal area are also good ways to turn yourself on if you’re alone.

If you’re with a partner, some foreplay is a good way to get started for any type of intercourse, with or without toys. You don’t need to spend a long time on the warmup. A few minutes should be enough to get you revved up and ready to go.

Don’t forget the lube

Before you get started, you should lubricate your suction cup dildo to make sure it slides in easily and allows you to move freely. You do need to be careful when choosing lube since you can’t use every lube available with every toy. Water-based lubricant is safe to use with all of your sex toys but silicone-based lubricant can damage silicone toys, so be sure to check what your toy is made of before applying the lubricant to it.

You don’t need a huge amount of lube to get started, so don’t slather your toy with it or you’ll have a mess to clean up before you even get started. Use enough to coat the areas that will be inserted inside you.

Sit on it slowly

No matter how warmed up you are or how much lube you’ve used, you still need to start slow with your toy, the same way you would if you were with a man. Ease yourself onto it, getting used to the feeling of it inside of you before you get started with your movements. This is especially important if using the suction cup dildo for anal use since this area is much tighter and requires a bit more delicacy when inserting a dildo.

Start moving

Once the dildo is inside of you and you are comfortable with it, you can start moving. There are a few techniques you can use, though it is best to start slowly and work your way up to the faster, rougher movements.

One technique you can try out is the shallow thrust, which stimulates both your G-spot and your clitoris. You can start slow and then speed up your thrusts as needed to give you those amazing orgasms.

You can also try those deep thrusts, pushing the dildo in as far as it can comfortably go and then pulling it out again, over and over. Like with the shallow thrusts, you should start slowly and work your way up to those faster speeds to stimulate your G-spot. You can even alternate between the shallow and deep thrusts for a bit of variety.

Milking the G-spot is another great technique, which is achieved by running your dildo along the top of the vagina and thrusting it in to stimulate your G-spot. You should be moving in short, sharp bursts for this to work well and give you those powerful orgasms.

You can try dual stimulation as well, using your fingers to stimulate your clitoris while the dildo works your G-spot.

Add some more toys

Though your suction cup dildo may give you a great deal of pleasure, you may want to add some extra toys to your session for even more stimulation. You can use a small bullet vibrator for some clitoral stimulation while using the suction cup dildo to pleasure you internally.

You can also use a butt plug or add an anal dildo that you control with your hands while using the suction cup dildo in your vagina. There are also suction cup dildos that can be used anally, so you can mix up your toys as you see fit to maximize the pleasure during your sessions.

Prepare for unforgettable sensations

Once you’ve tried out the amazing hands-free stimulation that a suction cup dildo has to offer, you may not want to go back to your handheld models. The suction cup offers versatility when it comes to the areas you can use them, plus they allow you to try a variety of positions and thrusting techniques without worrying about your hands or wrists tiring before you’re finished. This allows for longer, more pleasurable sessions that will be hard to top.

Safety precautions

If you’re new to using suction cup dildos, there are a few things you may want to keep in mind to be sure you’re using your toys as safely as possible. First, choose the right size of dildo. Don’t start with a thick model unless you’re sure you can handle the extra girth. It is better to start with a slim one and work your way up. Anal dildos are generally thinner than vaginal models, so if you’re using these toys on your back end, stick with the thinner models to avoid discomfort and injury.

You may also want to try a longer model than you would normally use with a handheld model for certain positions. When riding the toy, a shorter one may be the right length but when using your toy on the wall, a mirror, a door, or a window, you may need the extra length to ensure it can penetrate you as deeply as you’d like.

Make sure the suction cup on your dildo is firmly in place before you get started. You don’t want it to come loose during your session. Though this likely won’t cause any injuries, the dildo could shift when it disconnects from the wall, which may not be the most comfortable feeling.

Be extra careful when using your suction cup dildo with a mirror or window. The harder you thrust, the more likely it is that you could crack or break the glass, risking some serious injuries. When using breakable surfaces, it is best to be gentle. If a rougher session is what you’re looking for, stick to other sturdier surfaces that aren’t likely to break.

Another thing to consider with the mirror is that it needs to be securely attached to the wall. A freestanding one could move with you, making it quite easy to knock it over. One hanging on the wall could also shift as you move, so be sure to secure it in place before you get started.

Final thoughts

There are so many shapes, sizes, and materials used for dildos that it allows you to spice up your masturbation sessions in every way imaginable. For a bit more realism, many people are learning how to use a suction cup dildo for their solo sessions since these toys allow you hands-free use in almost any area of your home.

These toys can be attached to any hard, smooth, flat surface, giving you almost endless possibilities to try out with any position you like. You can even add them to your couple’s sessions for simulated threesome action without bringing in an actual extra person. With so many options available, there is no reason not to add one of these amazing sex toys to your collection.
