The Best Sex Toys You Need to Try in 2025

It’s an incredibly realistic dildo that comes at an attractive price. And you probably know more about sex toys than you ever wanted to know. The dildos are a firmer single density silicone so not 100% realistic in that regard. But the textures and balls are realistic, and we like the removable suction cup solution if you want to use these with a harness.

Masturbation sleeves (also known as strokers or penis sleeves) are cylindrical sleeves or canal-shaped sex toys that envelop the penis and are either open-ended or closed. “These sleeves work well for solo stimulation, as they’re like giving yourself a hand job, or your partner can stimulate you with it Dildos,” Frye-Nekrasova says. The Love Thruster is made of premium silicone and ABS plastic and has a firm feel to it, aid insertion by using a water-based lubricant.

While in some cases, you get what you pay for, “there absolutely are sex toys for under $50 that are safe and well-made,” says Wright. Many of the budget-friendly options below are great for beginners, as luxury toys can have too many intimidating bells and whistles. Our favorite palm vibe, the Le Wand Point, has a sleek stainless steel handle and an uber-soft ridged silicone tip. The heavier steel end allows the toy to provide more pressure than an all-silicone option, Finn previously told SELF. Other nice-to-haves include an intuitive button display, a travel lock, and a fully waterproof design (shower sex, anyone?). Palm vibrators are named for the fact that they fit into, yep, the palm of your hand.

Gender bend and really start to explore your boundaries and your passions. Some of these so-called double dongs can also be used with harnesses and create a neat and new strapons experience. The most popular are definitely silicone, but they can also be made of plastic, rubber , wood, stainless steel, or even glass. With each dildo material, there are definitely rules that you should be mindful of following to keep your dildo in tip-top shape. The main concern is using a dildo made of toxic, unsafe materials. There are tons of cheap toys out there made from TPR, TPE, latex, PVC, or jelly materials that are either porous (can harbor bacteria) or downright toxic (can leech chemicals into your body).

Make sure both dildo bases and the suction cup are clean and dust free. Then simply get both ends and the suction cup sides a bit wet (…with water) and stick them all together. You can also use the suction cup to attach a dildo with a smooth, flat, non-suction base to a smooth surface like a wall. The updated and now Tantus-owned POP Dildo is single-density silicone with 6.5 inches of insertable length and is 1.5 inches in diameter. It has a noticeable head to hit the g-spot or prostate, and some light texture on the shaft. It’s compatible with strap-on harnesses and o-rings, and you can boil it or put it in the top rack of a dishwasher to disinfect it—just make sure you remove the accessories first.

The latter helps protect you from getting a urinary tract infection or a vaginal infection by making sure you’re not spreading bacteria from your butt to your urethra or vagina. Perfect for vaginal or anal use, solo play, or couples’ fun. Pair with lubricants and harnesses for even more exciting experiences. So, I’m really stoked how customizable this beginner dildo is.
