Dildos FAQ

• How Do I Choose the Right Dildo?

  When selecting a suitable dildo, three key factors should be considered: size, material and shape. Beginners are advised to start with small to medium sizes to avoid discomfort; regarding material, silicone is safer and easier to clean; as for shape, you can choose straight, curved or lifelike designs according to personal preference. If this is your first purchase, it is recommended to opt for a product with moderate softness and a simple design, as these are easier to adapt to.

• Are Dildos Safe to Use?

  Dildos are safe provided you choose reputable brands and use them correctly. It is advisable to prioritise medical-grade silicone to avoid irritation or unpleasant odours caused by poor-quality plastics. Ensure you clean the dildo before and after use; using a water-based lubricant can enhance comfort and reduce friction. Avoid sharing dildos with others or using them without cleaning first, as this effectively reduces hygiene risks.

• What Material Is Best for a Dildo?

  Common materials include silicone, glass, stainless steel and TPE. Silicone is the most popular choice, as it is safe, soft and easy to clean; glass and metal are more durable and suit those who prefer different textures; TPE is more affordable but requires more careful maintenance. For most users, silicone offers the best balance.

• Can I Use Lubricant with a Dildo?

  Yes, and the use of lubricant is highly recommended. Water-based lubricants are suitable for all materials, particularly silicone products, and are the safest option. Avoid using silicone-based lubricants with silicone dildos, as they may affect the surface of the material. Adequate lubrication not only enhances the experience but also protects the product and extends its lifespan.

• How Do I Clean a Dildo Properly?

  After use, wash it immediately with warm water and a mild detergent, paying particular attention to the areas that come into contact with the body. Silicone, glass and metal products can usually be thoroughly washed or even sterilised, whilst TPE products require gentler handling. After washing, allow it to dry completely and store it in a dry, clean environment to prevent the build-up of dust or bacteria.

• Are Dildos Suitable for Beginners?

  Yes, but it is advisable to start with smaller sizes and softer materials. Beginners do not need to choose large or complex products straight away; adapting gradually will be more comfortable. Opting for a basic model with a simple design and minimal features can help you find the right way to use it more quickly.

• What Size Dildo Should I Start With?

  If you are a beginner, it is advisable to start with a model that is shorter in length and smaller in diameter, such as one similar to a finger or slightly larger. As you become more accustomed to it, you can gradually try larger sizes. Products that are too large may cause discomfort or even detract from the experience, so a gradual approach is best.

• Can Dildos Be Used with a Partner?

  Yes, dildos are not only suitable for solo use but are also commonly used in intimate interactions between partners, such as with strap-ons or to enhance the experience. When using them with a partner, communication is vital to ensure both parties are comfortable and willing to try. Used appropriately, they can add variety and excitement to your intimate moments.

• How Long Do Dildos Last?

  Lifespan depends on the material and how well they are looked after. Silicone, glass and metal products are generally more durable and can last a long time; TPE products have a relatively shorter lifespan. Regular cleaning, proper storage and avoiding exposure to high temperatures or contact with sharp objects can all effectively extend their lifespan.
