A suction cup base turns a dildo into a hands-free toy. Stick it to a smooth surface and you are free to move, change positions and set your own rhythm. Here is how to get the most out of a suction cup dildo.
How does a suction cup dildo work?
The flexible base creates a vacuum when you press it firmly against a flat, smooth, non-porous surface. The air is pushed out and the base grips in place. It also doubles as a flared base, which is an important safety feature if you use the toy anally.
The best surfaces
- Bathroom tiles and shower walls – smooth, easy to clean and ideal for shower play
- Glass and mirrors – very strong grip
- Smooth laminate or tiled floors – good for riding positions
- A smooth chair or bathtub edge – as long as the surface is flat
Avoid wood grain, fabric, carpet and textured surfaces – the base will not seal properly.
Tips for a strong grip
- Make sure the surface and the base are clean and dry.
- A tiny drop of water on the base can help it seal better.
- Press firmly in the centre and push outwards to remove all the air.
- Give it a gentle test pull before you use it.
- Keep lubricant away from the base – lube makes it slip.
Positions to try
On the floor or a chair, a suction cup dildo lets you ride and control depth and pace yourself. On a shower wall, it is perfect for standing play. Start slowly, use a generous amount of water-based lubricant on the toy itself and find the angle that feels best for you.
Which suction cup dildo should you choose?
For a first toy, try our 7-inch realistic suction cup dildo. For something softer and more budget-friendly, the clear jelly suction cup dildo is a great choice. Experienced users may prefer the 9.1-inch or large blue models, while the fantasy bee dildo offers something more playful. Not sure about style? Read Realistic vs Fantasy Dildos.
Cleaning and care
Wash the whole toy, including the base, before and after use with warm water and mild soap, and let it dry fully. Store it away from other toys and dust so the base stays clean and sticky. Our cleaning and storage guide has more tips.
