Dildo or Vibrator?

If you are new to the world of adult toys, you may be a bit overwhelmed by the large variety available to you. The main question for many people purchasing their first toy is whether to get a dildo or vibrator. Consider the main differences between both and decide which is best for you.

The Difference

The main difference between the two is that a dildo does not vibrate or pulsate while a vibrator may do both. A dildo is typically made out of realistic feeling silicone and is used for penetration and to mimic sex, while a vibrator is made out of many materials and can be used for both clitoral and vaginal stimulation.

You have the option of a realistic looking dildo such as the Boss and Mister which are made to resemble a real penis as closely as possible, or a smooth dildo such as the Toa and Princess. Dildos are great when used with a harness and can be used on both men and women during sex. Some dildos stick to hard surfaces which is exceptionally helpful during solo play. When purchasing a dildo, you have a large variety of shapes, sizes and colours to choose from.

If you are more inclined to a vibrator then you have many to choose from. The Fun Factory Big Boss is a great realistic option, while the Fun Factory Tiger or Lelo Mona 2, are our most popular for a less realistic looking toy. If you are looking for both vaginal and clitoral stimulation, then Fun Factory Paul & Paulina or the Lelo Ina 2 are both great options.

Defining Your Preferences

Figuring out which type of toy will suit you best may take some trial and error. You may find that an option like the Lelo Mona 2 is best to start with as you have the option of using it for clitoral stimulation, for internal stimulation and also not using the vibration at all.

Lubricant also has a very important role to play when choosing your toy and a good quality water- based lube such as Probe will provide you with hours of fun.
