15 best sex toys in 2025 for a great orgasm, tested by us

Use a water-based lubricant if you are a fan of glide and slide entry. Thrusting dildos differ in shape and style, so you will need to get to know your new sex toy. Practice makes perfect and a little experimentation will go a long way. Ideal for sexual arousal and penetration, the phallic-shaped dildo is designed to resemble an erect penis. Use the dildo alone for masturbation or invite a lover to join the fun. Sure, other dildos feel similar in terms of realism but nothing comes close when you factor in the low price, quality materials, and the dual density design.

This obviously renders the material unsafe to use internally as it can cause pH-imbalances and nasty infections. If you ever do use a dildo made of porous materials, I strongly recommend putting a condom over it first. There are some amazing brands and manufacturers of both single density and dual density dildos that we here at Bedbible love and trust, such as Tantus, Vixen, Lovehoney, and Fun Factory. I actually have a Vixen dildo of my own as well (the Vixen Maverick) and it is truly one of my most prized possessions.

They’re all great, but we generally like Seahorse, Dragon, and Oni for this kind of smooth, yet rippled texture. Godemiche is a small handmade silicone toys shop with an almost limitless variety of colors, sparkles, and even glow in the dark dildos available. We love their jeweled glass butt plugs, and their dildos are equally sexy and luxurious, albeit also at a high price point. Le Wand makes a variety of stainless steel wand dildos very similar to the three nJoy toys listed above. Their Hoop wand is the closest to the Pure Wand, but slightly more expensive at $135.

These are all around very similar dimensions to the two Tantus Alan and Sam that we called out above, but for 1/3rd the price. The 8-inch is a particularly great deal even for a single density silicone dildo of the same size. For the absolute most affordable dual density dildo, there’s nothing that even comes close to these two dildos from the NS Novelties Colours collection. Supersoft silicone doesn’t support itself as well as firm silicone for large and XL dildos. While it feels more comfortable in an XL dildo, that is a factor you need to weigh and consider for how you plan to use it. Because a lot of what makes the best dildo is finding the right size for your own body and experience level.

The lifelike shape, realistic veins and a firm inner core is a favorite of women everywhere for sensual pleasure. Glass is a non-porous material, not easy to breed bacteria, very easy to clean, just need to use water or soapy water to clean it, but also can be put in the dishwasher to clean. Most people assume that “jelly” means soft, but that’s not true. We have several firm jelly dildos that are perfect for a hard thrusting good time, but also soft jelly for an easy, gentle experience. Silicone, steel and glass are considered the safest materials for dildo sex toys, as they do not contain phthalates the way jelly rubber toys do. (Good Vibes does not offer jelly dildos.) These materials are also nonporous and are easy to clean with warm water and soap or a specially-formulated sex toy cleaner.

And the Diverse Sexualities and Research Education Institute, Stewart is passionate about bringing together diverse voices in order to spread sexual education and liberation. This toy has a near-perfect online rating inflatable didlos, with one promising review stating, “If you’re new to glass this one is a great one to start with.” Stewart recommends double-sided dildos like this one in particular, suggesting, “You and your partner can experiment with different positions where both of you are being penetrated.”

Silicone and glass are generally the ones you’ll want to look for, as opposed to materials that feel more “jelly,” says Skyler. If you’re new to the world of dildos and interested in a toy that’s realistic , body-safe, and inexpensive, Lifelike Lover’s dildo is a great place to start. It features an insertable length of 5″, and a strong suction cup that will keep it in a harness. At $120, this glass dildo isn’t cheap—but there’s a reason it’s so beloved. “This toy has two bulbs on either side of it, it’s made of medical-grade stainless steel, and the weight and curve is going to be really good for G-spot or prostate play,” says Finn.

Everyone agreed that the machine-washable harness felt great on the waist (image above). It wasn’t the most comfortable we’ve tested, but it was comfortable enough for the price. The testers especially loved how easy to handle the 8″ dildo was. Unlike the syringe pumps, Big Shot has an intuitive 2-button control interface to easily shoot the load with a button – you don’t have to squeeze with the syringe or squeeze ball. The versatile Puew Wand is just as practical for solo users as for couples. You can use it during foreplay or sex with your significant other.
