Buying Guide
The Complete Guide to Buying Dildos & Dongs (2026)
A dildo (or dong) is a solid, insertable pleasure toy shaped for penetration — no motor, no batteries, just satisfying fullness on your terms. To pick the right one, weigh up three things: size, material and shape. Beginners should start slim, soft and around 5–8 inches; if you want a lifelike feel, look for realistic sculpting and a sturdy base.
What Is a Dildo or Dong?
A dildo is a solid, insertable toy shaped for penetration, with no vibration or moving parts — the pleasure comes purely from its size, shape and how you move it. “Dong” is simply the cheeky Aussie word for a realistic, penis-shaped dildo, often complete with a head, shaft veining and balls.
The two terms overlap constantly. In practice, every dong is a dildo, but not every dildo is a dong — plenty are smooth, abstract or fantasy-shaped rather than lifelike. Whether you are exploring solo, prostate play, or bringing one into the bedroom with a partner, a dildo is the most versatile toy a bloke can own.
Are Dildos & Dongs Right for You?
If you are curious about fuller, deeper sensations — on your own or with a partner — then yes, a dildo is one of the easiest and most rewarding places to start. There is no learning curve, no charging, and nothing to break down mid-session.
For men, a well-chosen dildo opens up backdoor exploration and prostate stimulation that a lot of blokes never realise they are missing. Couples use them for double penetration, pegging and hands-free play. And because a dildo does exactly what you steer it to do, you stay in complete control of pace, depth and angle — ideal when you are still working out what you like. Browse our full dildos & dongs range to see the spread.
Types of Dildos & Dongs: Which One Suits You?
Dildos split into a handful of clear styles, and the right one comes down to the feel you are chasing. Here are the main types you will meet at Naughty Boy.
Classic (smooth)
Simple, smooth-shafted toys with a gentle head and no lifelike detail. Soft, forgiving and easy to steer — the perfect first dildo. The 8" Classic Cock is the textbook example.
Realistic (dongs)
Sculpted to look and feel like the real thing, with a defined head, veining and often balls. If lifelike is what you are after, a dong like the 8" Realistic Cock delivers.
Double-ended
One shaft, two usable heads — built for couples or for solo double-duty. Flexible bodies like the 12" Translucent Double Dildo bend to almost any angle.
Suction-base & harness-ready
A strong flat base means hands-free fun stuck to a wall or floor, and doubles as a strap-on for pegging. Most of our realistic dongs, including the 8" Realistic Cock + Balls, come base-ready.
XXL & girthy
Strictly for experienced players chasing serious size, like the legendary 17" Dick Rambone Cock. Work up to these slowly — they are a destination, not a starting line.
| Type | Best for | Feel | Skill level | Price band |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Classic (smooth) | First-timers | Soft, gentle | Beginner | $ |
| Realistic (dong) | Lifelike feel | Firm, detailed | Beginner–Intermediate | $$ |
| Double-ended | Couples & solo | Flexible | Intermediate | $$ |
| Suction / harness | Hands-free, pegging | Firm base | Intermediate | $$–$$$ |
| XXL & girthy | Size chasers | Very full | Advanced | $$$ |
How to Choose Your First Dildo
Get four things right and you will love your first dildo: size, girth, material and base. Start conservative — you can always size up, but an over-ambitious first buy just ends up in the drawer.
Size & girth
Length matters less than girth. A 5–8 inch toy with a slim-to-medium width suits almost everyone starting out; save the monsters for later. If in doubt, go slimmer — comfort beats bragging rights every time.
Material
Body-safe silicone is the gold standard — non-porous, easy to clean and lasts for years. Softer jelly and TPE toys feel lovely and cost less, but need a condom over them and a bit more cleaning care.
Base & shape
For any backdoor play, a flared base is non-negotiable — it keeps everything safe and retrievable. A suction base adds hands-free options; a curved shaft helps you find the prostate.
| Experience | Size to aim for | Girth | Features to look for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Beginner | 5–6" | Slim | Soft material, smooth shape, flared base |
| Intermediate | 7–8" | Medium | Realistic sculpting, suction base, slight curve |
| Advanced | 9"+ | Thick–XXL | Girth, texture, extra length |
Materials & Body-Safety
Stick to body-safe materials and you cannot go far wrong. The three you will see most at Naughty Boy are body-safe silicone, jelly/TPE and glass or metal.
Silicone is non-porous, tough and easy to keep clean — the premium choice, and worth it. Jelly and TPE feel soft and realistic and cost less; because they are porous, pop a condom over them and clean thoroughly after every use. Glass and stainless steel are hard, ultra-smooth, non-porous and take temperature play beautifully. Whatever you choose, use a water-based lube to protect the surface — silicone lube can degrade silicone toys.
How to Use a Dildo
Take it slow, use plenty of lube, and let your body set the pace — that is the whole game. Rushing is the only real mistake.
Warm up first, especially for backdoor play: relax, breathe, and ease in gradually rather than going for depth straight away. Reapply lube far more often than you think you need to — friction is the enemy of a good time. Experiment with angles to find what lands; a slight curve towards the front wall is the sweet spot for prostate play. And if you are sharing, either swap on a fresh condom or give the toy a proper clean between partners and between front and back.
Care, Cleaning & Storage
Clean your dildo before and after every use with warm water and a mild, unscented soap or a dedicated toy cleaner. A little care keeps a good toy going for years.
Non-porous silicone, glass and metal can be washed thoroughly and dried with a lint-free cloth; porous jelly and TPE need extra attention and are best paired with a condom. Let everything dry completely, then store your toy in a clean pouch or bag away from other toys — different materials can react if they sit pressed together. Keep it cool, dry and out of direct sunlight.

What size dildo should a beginner buy?
Start with a 5–6 inch toy in a slim-to-medium girth. Length is easy to handle; it is girth that catches beginners out, so go narrower than you think and size up later once you know what you enjoy.
What is the difference between a dildo and a dong?
A dong is simply a realistic, penis-shaped dildo — complete with a head, veining and often balls. Every dong is a dildo, but plenty of dildos are smooth or abstract rather than lifelike.
Are dildos body-safe?
Yes, when you choose a body-safe material and keep it clean. Silicone, glass and stainless steel are non-porous and the safest bet; jelly and TPE are best used with a condom and cleaned thoroughly after every session.
Do I need lube with a dildo?
Absolutely — and use more than you think. Stick to a water-based lube, which works with every material and will not degrade silicone toys. Reapply often for comfortable, friction-free play.
Can I use a dildo for anal play?
Yes, as long as it has a flared or suction base. That flared base is essential for backdoor play — it keeps the toy safe and easy to retrieve. Go slow, warm up and use plenty of lube.
How do I clean my dildo?
Wash it before and after every use with warm water and a mild unscented soap or a dedicated toy cleaner. Dry it fully, then store it in its own pouch away from other toys.
Which dildo is best for hands-free play?
One with a strong suction base, like our realistic dongs. Stick it to a smooth wall, floor or tile and you have got hands-free fun — the same base also slots into most strap-on harnesses for pegging.
