Choosing the Right Dilldo
Due to the large variety of products, most people feel overwhelmed by the choices when shopping for a dilldo. Whether the toy is meant to pleasure a man, a woman, or both, virtually every niche has been covered!
It is no accident that there are a wide variety of shapes, sizes and materials to choose from.
Certain materials are better suited for sharing with a partner meanwhile certain shapes are more appropriate for anal play.
All this translates into different characteristics, and different care requirements for each dilldo.
The first thing to figure out your preferences and what you are going to use it for:
- Will you be using it yourself or sharing it?
- Is it going to be for vaginal, penile, anal, or all?
- Do you care about cleaning difficulty?
- The properties of the materials used (soft/hard)?
- The flexibility of the dilldo (bendable/rigid)?
- Does a realistic looking dilldo turn you on or off?
- How big do you want it?
- What’s your price range?
- What kind of power supply do you want?
Although answering these questions will help narrow down the selection, choosing the right toy usually requires some experience, so starting with a cheaper product is usually a good way to go.
Power Options
The first decision you want to make is what kind of a power supply you want. If you would prefer something without power, you may want to refer to the Types of a dilldo page.
Making this decision should be based on your dilldo preferences.
If you would like something convenient and that you can take anywhere, then you should consider going with batteries.
If on the other hand you want something that’s more reliable and has more flexibility, and you don’t mind having a power cord, then you should consider going with an electrical model.
Types of a Dilldo
Once you get a rough idea of what you are looking for, it’s time to figure out what kind of dilldo to get.
Due to the overwhelming varieties of products and uses, we will outline the most common types.
Traditional Dilldos
A traditional dilldo is typically shaped like a penis and range from 5 to 8 inches in length.
Although available in virtually any color or material, they are typically hard plastic and offer control of the intensity of a steady vibration.
They are a good choice for beginners as they can be some of the most affordable toys.
Anal Dilldos
Many people make the mistake that any dilldo can be used vaginally or anally.
Although virtually any object similar to a dilldo can be put through a hole of sufficient size, anal dilldos are designed with flared bottoms, or pull strings, to avoid them from getting lost.
As funny as it sounds, it happens more commonly then you would think. Whether for a male or female, anal dilldos can greatly increase your stimulation during masturbation, foreplay, or intercourse.
A Multi-Purpose Dilldo
Multi-purpose dilldos are designed to stimulate more than one area at a time. Unsurprisingly, a lot of time and effort has gone into designing these products. Some of the more basic models for females include traditional dilldo extensions like clit ticklers, suction, and anal stimulators.
Meanwhile, some of the more advanced models can spin and penetrate! Male toys are no less impressive; the Robo Suck 2000 (for example) sucks, strokes, and vibrates all at the same time.
Dilldo Sleeves
Ranging from a plastic shell, all the way to a full molded mouth, head or torso, sleeves are a good choice for men looking for a hands-off experience.
They vary in depth (usually between 4-8 inches) and most commonly vibrate.
More advanced toys have suction, can stroke, and even spin. A word for the wary, sleeves are amongst the most difficult toys to clean, so keep that in mind when considering this type of product.
Dilldo Kits
With so much variety, it’s difficult to choose a product when you know what you like, let alone when you are just starting out.
Luckily, there are kits you can buy that come with several types of dilldos, a few sleeves of various shapes and sizes to put over the dilldos, and some lubricant.
Larger kits include different products like blindfolds, beads, paddles, cuffs, and much more. Buying the kit can not only save you money but expose you to new products so you can further explore your sexuality.
Most people understand the purpose of a dilldo but fail to see the purpose of dilldos since they do not actively do anything that you could not do yourself.
The truth is; while the sensations that dilldos give are unique and pleasurable, they can be too intense for some people.
Dilldos offer a sense of fullness and allow people who enjoy penetrating others to do so without distracting vibrations, electrical cords or batteries.
Dilldos, like most sex toys, are available in a wide variety of shapes, sizes and colors and are made from a wide variety of materials – each having its own unique characteristics.
Some materials are better suited for anal play and others for vaginal use.

Types of a Dilldo
Once you get an idea of what you are looking for, it’s time to figure out what kind of dilldo to get. Due to the overwhelming varieties of products and uses, we will outline the most common types.
Traditional Dilldo
Traditional Dilldos are the most popular variety of dilldos on the market. Although they are generally shaped like a man’s penis, the realism of each one can vary.
On one end you have the ultra-realistic dilldos, which are shaped and colored to look as close to a real penis as possible. Some dilldos are even molded from the real thing! Porn stars have been lending their names, and their penises, for sex toy molding in recent years.
On the other hand, there are dilldos that are made from brightly colored material and do not look like a penis at all.
A traditional dilldo falls into a range of between 5″ up to as much as 18″ for some of the larger varieties.
Anal Dilldo
Anal Dilldos are specifically designed for anal use. They are distinguishable from most other dilldos because they usually have a larger base or a cord, so they do not get lost in the anus not so amusing if it happens to you!
If you plan to use a dilldo anally, we would recommend getting one that is designed for that purpose, to avoid an embarrassing trip to the doctor.
These include anything from somewhat normal dilldos all the way to butt plugs.
Anal Beads
Beads appeal to a wide variety of people and are a popular choice for anal play. Beads consist of a series of silicone, jelly or plastic spheres attached together by a cord.
They are inserted one by one into the vagina or anus, and then slowly removed creating pleasurable sensations.
A great application is using them to stimulate a man’s prostate gland right at the peak of orgasm. This extra stimulation will take a man from cloud 9 to cloud 99, as long as he is ok with the idea.
Dilldo Balls
Balls loosely fall into the category of a dilldo if they are not attached to a motor.
Unlike vibrating balls, the non-motorized versions do not require batteries and are not attached to an electric cord. Below two of the more common brands are introduced.
One of the choices in this category is Ben Wa Balls. A set of Ben Wa Balls consists of two large, smooth ball bearings and are intended to be used by inserting them into the vagina.
They work by stimulating internal areas when they rub or knock up against each other. The sensations from Ben Wa Balls are often very subtle and some women do not find them intense enough to be pleasurable.
A more intense product is Duotone Balls. Like Ben Wa Balls, they have ball bearings that are encased inside a larger plastic sphere, which is usually made of silicone.
The two spheres are connected by a cord, which is used for easy retrieval.
Duotone Balls work much the same way as Ben Wa Balls, but the sensations are much more intense because the inner ball bearings of the Duotone Balls have room to move, so they knock against the outer casing, or each other, with more force.
Strap-On Dilldo
A strap-on Dilldo is a dilldo that can be attached to a harness. Harnesses usually require that the dilldo have a flat or flared base to be able to stay attached.
The dilldo is inserted through a hole in the harness, and then the harness can be strapped onto the user.
Many people enjoy the role-playing and variety potential of a strap-on. Some lesbian couples enjoy penetrating their partners with strap-ons.
Some women enjoy penetrating their male partners, while some men like to penetrate their partners anally and vaginally at the same time.
Double-Ended Dilldo
Double-Ended Dilldos are a dilldo that can be inserted using either end. This is a common choice for people who want to use a dilldo on themselves and with partners simultaneously.
Double-ended dilldos can either be two standard dilldos joined at the base, or one that is molded with two working ends.
This dilldo, like most other dilldos, are available in a wide variety of shapes, sizes and colors.
