Dildos are fun and all, but what if you want something with a little more oomph? Well, that\u2019s where a handy-dandy thrusting dildo comes into play.<\/strong> But with so many versions and style variations on the market, how do you know which to spend your hard-earned money on?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Well, in this article, we will break down all the essentials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n
THRUSTING DILDO VS VIBRATORS<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is pretty self-explanatory. We have dildos, which are just hunks of silicone and you have to do all the work. Then there are vibrators with lovely motors inside to make you happily squirm. Finally thrusting dildos have a different kind of motor with a push\/pull mechanic inside. Whether they have a vibrator as well depends on the model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Which you choose depends on how much control you want to have over your thrusting, <\/strong>or even how sensitive you are. For example, women who find penetration painful might want to avoid thrusting dildos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Budget can also be a factor. Most thrusting vibratos aren\u2019t cheap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n
PRICE POINTS TO CONSIDER<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This brings us to our next point. For the most part, in the sex toy world, you very much get what you pay for. So, if you shell out pennies for something, don\u2019t expect it to blow your mind. However, that doesn\u2019t mean that a $200 toy is going to automatically be your best friend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You\u2019ll need to look at a few design factors alongside how much they cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That being said, anything with body-safe materials will START in the $50 to $60 range.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Okay, here is the bread and butter of where you\u2019re going to make your big decisions. Let\u2019s break it down into steps\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
Is it made from body-safe silicone?<\/strong> If not, take a hard pass. And no silicone blends.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Does it look fairly easy to clean? If there are odd nooks and crannies it might need a bit more attention after you use it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Also, is it waterproof or just splash-proof? It\u2019s always better to be waterproof! Even if you don\u2019t use it in the bathtub or shower, it still makes things easier to clean.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
What is the shaft\u2019s \u201cgive\u201d structure? <\/strong>This means the section of the silicone that stretches and recoils as the toy moves in and out. Some have an accordion-like design. Others just have a normal sheath that stretches.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Where is the accordion section located?<\/strong> This is important for anyone who has a beautifully ample labia. If the “give-structure” is located near the base of the toy, it might pinch your lovely folds. If so, best get something with the accordion part near to top or one that stretches.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Do reviews say the toy is “firm” or has some flexibility? Usually, people prefer toys with at least a little “give.”<\/li>\n\n\n\n
What do reviews say about the motor(s)? Is it strong enough or falls flat like a poor lover?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
How long is the thrust?\u00a0<\/strong> Is it just 1 inch or 3? There\u2019s no right or wrong. It depends on how deep you like it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Are the buttons in an easy place to press?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
If there is a g-spot bump, does it look comfortable? (I saw a toy with a bump that looked painfully high, but some might love that).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
There are other lovely add-ons that might be worth the few extra dollars. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
Some toys have a rabbit end to massage\/vibrate the clit.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
A few come with vibrators so it\u2019s easier for you to change settings (rather than blinding reaching for buttons or you can give it to a partner).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
If this is a toy you want to use anally, make sure it has a FLARED base!<\/li>\n\n\n\n
A few have suction cups so you can attach them to a flat surface and have a hands-free experience. But if you do, make sure reviews say it\u2019s got a good suction. Far too many have crappy bases.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Some toys have gone super high-tech. You can control them with your smartphone from any distance. <\/strong>You could be in one country while your partner is in another. Or the toys can sync. <\/strong>This means that whatever one toy does, the other one will react.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
