Although this dildo is on the more expensive side, the quality more than justifies the price. The toy’s shape, texture and stroke length are fantastic and the suction cup is extra strong.
I loved the vibration patterns because there’s truly something for every mood. Whether you want it hard and fast or you’d rather edge yourself, this dildo will be just what you need.
My only complaint is that the toy isn’t 100% waterproof. As such, I couldn’t use it in the shower or bath, which I really wanted to try out. Also, I wouldn’t recommend this for sneaky users, as it gets really loud.
Bottom line: the best overall thrusting vibrator – fantastic shape, texture and stroke length, strong suction cup. Not waterproof; loud on high settings.

If measured back-and-forth thrusts are what you need to get to the finish line, no toy will top this one. The motor is powerful and the patterns and speeds are versatile, so you’ll easily find something you like.
I loved how silent this one is! Even if you pick the speediest and most intense vibrations, the toy will stay relatively quiet, letting you enjoy yourself without anyone knowing.
I only wish you could use this anally, but the base makes that impossible. Still, if anal isn’t your thing, you can’t go wrong with this dildo.
Bottom line: the best silent thrusting dildo – measured back-and-forth thrusts, quiet even at maximum intensity. Cannot be used anally.

Most Beginner-Friendly

- Allergens: Phthalate-free - Non-porous
- Width: 35.5 mm / 1.4 in
- Insertable length: 114 mm / 4.5 in

- Hard to clean
- The shaft is too short for me
If you’re looking to buy your very first thrusting dildo, this model is probably the best option on the market. It is definitely too small for my taste, although the toy does feel incredible inside of me.
As for the vibration patterns and speeds, they’re rather varied. You can mix and match them to get the combo that works best for your needs at any given time, which I appreciated.
The only thing I really disliked is the fact that cleaning the dildo isn’t that easy. It’s mainly because it isn’t waterproof, so you cannot boil or submerge it in water.
Bottom line: the best beginner thrusting dildo – ideal starter size, varied patterns and speeds. Not waterproof; requires careful cleaning.

Most Versatile

- Material: Silicone
- Power source: Rechargeable
- Allergens: Phthalate-free - Non-porous
- Length: 222 mm / 8.75 in
- Insertable length: 165 mm / 6.5 in
- Width: 44 mm / 1.75 in
- Pros
- Tons of options
- High-quality material
- Remote control
- Cons
- The insertable length could have been bigger
- It can get noisy
- Not waterproof
This dildo has 50 different power settings – the most of any of the models I’ve tried so far. It’s an amazing choice for those who want to challenge themselves and build up tolerance to stronger toys.
I loved that you can control the patterns remotely, as it makes using the toy much easier. It also comes with a suction cup, so hands-free mode is always an option.
While it is undeniably made of premium-quality materials – which feel great inside of you – the dildo is not waterproof. This fact makes it a pain to clean, especially if you use it more than once per day.
Bottom line: the most settings of any model – 50 power settings, remote control, suction cup. Not waterproof; cleaning can be challenging with frequent use.
Master Series Power Pounder
Best Handle
Tried it? Rate it! ( user's ratings directly affect the position of products in this table)
85
- Material: Silicone
- Power source: Rechargeable
- Allergens: Phthalate-free - Non-porous
- Overall length: 273 mm / 10.75 in
- Insertable length: 171 mm / 6.75 in
- Width at widest point: 48 mm / 1.9 in
- Thrust depth: 12.7 mm / 0.5 in
- Pros
- The sturdy handle allows for measured and firm strokes
- 7 different thrusting levels and various intense vibration speeds
- Easy to insert and use even if you aren’t experienced
- Cons
- Only compatible with water-based lube
- Too pricey for such a simple toy
This dildo’s handle is sturdy and easy to hold, making it perfect for firm and measured thrusts. I think it’s one of the easiest toys to use in that regard, as your grip won’t slip no matter how hard you go.
When enjoying this toy, you can use various vibration patterns and 7 speeds, which is pretty good for newbies. The toy also feels quite realistic and it won’t be overwhelming to those who are extra sensitive.
With that said, I think this dildo is a tad too expensive, as there are much better models in this price range in terms of versatility.
Bottom line: the easiest to hold – sturdy non-slip handle, realistic feel, 7 speeds. Slightly overpriced for its versatility at this range.
Lifelike Lover Luxe Thrusting and Rotating Dildo
Best for Water Play

71
- Material: Silicone
- Power source: Rechargeable
- Allergens: Latex-Free, Phthalate-Free
- Waterproof: Submersible
- Usage time: 60 minutes
- Circumference: 127 mm / 5 in
- Insertable Length: 165 mm / 6.5 in
- Length: 203 mm / 8 in
- Pros
- Realistic looking dildo made from soft and silky silicone material
- Durable suction cup suitable for hands-free action and compatible with a harness
- Delivers a pleasurable thrusting/rotating experience and is suitable for water play
- Cons
- May be a bit noisy
- The thrust feature is not very powerful
If you need your toys to be as realistic as possible, this offering from Lovehoney will have you covered. The dildo looks and feels just like the real deal and it stays soft and silky even if you use it every day.
This toy is also a great choice for those who use their dildos with a harness or love enjoying them hands-free. The suction cup is sturdy and stays put regardless of how intense your session gets.
I only wish the toy came with more varied vibration modes. The most powerful one was still too weak for me, but that’s just a personal preference.
Bottom line: the most realistic daily-use model – soft and silky even with daily use, strong suction cup, harness compatible. Limited vibration modes; most powerful setting was still too weak.

63
- Material: Silicone, ABS Plastic
- Power source: Rechargeable
- Allergens: Phthalate-free - Non-porous
- Length: 311 mm / 12.25 in
- Insertable Length: 152 mm / 6 in
- Girth at largest point: 124 mm / 4.9 in
- Width at largest point: 38 mm / 1.5 in
- Pros
- Features a sturdy base for hands-free action and a supercharged thrusting motor
- 7 bouncing thrust modes, 7 pulsating vibrations and a warm-up feature
- Swollen and angled at the tip for amazing G-spot and P-spot stimulation
- Cons
- Only compatible with water-based lubes
- Can be a bit difficult to clean
With 7 pulsating vibration patterns and 7 bouncing thrust modes, this dildo has one of the most powerful motors on the market. The highest settings were almost too much even for me, which should tell you everything.
My favorite part of the toy, by a mile, is the tip. It’s slightly angled and swollen just right to offer incredible G or P-spot stimulation. All the while, inserting it is effortless.
The base of the toy is durable and quite sturdy, so you can use it hands-free. The only con is how challenging the toy is to clean, as it’s made of a fragile material.
Bottom line: the most powerful motor – 7 pulsation + 7 thrust modes, angled tip for precise G/P-spot targeting, effortless insertion. Fragile material makes cleaning challenging.
Lovense Gravity
Best Battery Life

- Material: Silicone, Stainless Steel
- Power source: Rechargeable
- Allergens: Phthalate-free - Non-porous
- Overall length: 259 mm / 10.2 in
- Shaft length: 233 mm / 9.2 in
- Insertable length: 130 mm / 5.12 in

- Features an extra strong suction cup base for hands-free fun
- Vibration and thrusting are controlled separately
- 4 hours of use on a single charge
- Cons
- The insertable length might not be enough for some users
- It can get a tad too noisy
Located at the tip, the vibration motor reaches up to 140 strokes per minute, which is excellent. A separate button allows you to control the thrusts, so you can tailor the experience to your needs fully.
I wanted to test whether the toy could really last 4 hours on the highest settings and it didn’t disappoint at all. So, if you want a dildo that will give you your longest edging session yet, you’ve found it.
The suction cup base adheres to any flat surface, meaning that you can enjoy this bad boy pretty much anywhere in your home (or outside of it!)
Bottom line: the best battery life and hands-free – 4 hours at highest settings, suction cup mounts anywhere, separate thrust button. Premium price for the battery/connectivity combination.

- Circumference: 114.3 mm / 4.5 in

- The combination of internal warming and responsive thrusting produces eye-popping orgasms
- Cons

- May be a bit difficult to clean
This toy is easy to hold and move around, all thanks to the sturdy base. It lets you choose between various intense thrusting and vibration modes and combine them however you want.
Most dildos take a bit to warm up and adjust to your inner temperature. However, this one does so almost instantly, so you don’t have to wait around to get the party started.
All in all, the powerful motor, quick-heating technology and the perfect curvature of the dildo provided some of the best orgasms I’ve ever had. I truly cannot recommend it enough!
Bottom line: the best warming thrusting dildo – quick-heat technology, perfect curvature, intense thrusting + vibration combo. One of the best overall orgasms in Scarlett’s testing.
Naked Addiction Dildo With Balls
Best Design
Tried it? Rate it! ( user's ratings directly affect the position of products in this table)
23
- Material: Silicone
- Power source: Rechargeable
- Allergens: Phthalate-free - Non-porous
- Total length: 229 mm / 9 in
- Insertable length: 152 mm / 6 in
- Width at the widest insertable point: 44 mm / 1.75 in
- Pros
- The addition of one soft and one hard layer makes it more realistic
- Made from 100% body-safe silicone and features squishy balls
- 9 inches long, USB-rechargeable and suitable for hands-free use and strap-on action
- Cons
- Not suitable for use in the shower
- Not the best toy for G-spot and P-spot stimulation
Made of two complementary layers – one hard and one soft – this toy is incredibly realistic. The skin is silky smooth and the balls are extra squishy, which I adored.
Now, this dildo is quite long, with over 9 inches of delicious length. As such, it’s not really for newbies or the faint of heart. That said, I think it’s actually the perfect toy to use if you want to test your limits and build stamina.
Just bear in mind that the dildo’s shaft is entirely straight, so it won’t do much for your G or P-spot. Also, you can’t use it in the shower since it isn’t waterproof.
Bottom line: the most realistic dual-layer design – hard + soft layer, silky skin, 9 inches of length. Not waterproof; not curved so limited G/P-spot targeting.

Back To The Top 10 Thrusting Dildos
Thrusting Dildos: Push It to the Limit!
“A thrusting dildo is a hand-held powerhouse that will push you above and beyond your usual penetrative experience and go where no other toy has been before! It will give you deep, mind-bending thrusting that delivers the kind of orgasms you didn’t know your body was capable of – and it packs more power than the freaking Energizer bunny!”
Have you ever seen a full-size machine in action and thought, I’d love that kind of experience, but in something more practical for home use? You’re definitely not alone. While most toys can deliver pleasure, sometimes the more basic options just don’t offer the level of intensity or variety you’re looking for anymore.
Let’s be honest: full-size machines can be impressive, but they’re often bulky, expensive, and not exactly discreet. The good news is you don’t need something that extreme to enjoy a similar level of intensity. Modern thrusting toys are designed to deliver powerful, customizable stimulation in a much more compact and practical format, making them a great alternative for home use.
Spread ‘em Wide!
Finding a high-quality thrusting toy that truly matches your preferences isn’t always straightforward. Not every option on the market delivers the same level of performance, which is why testing and comparing different models really matters.
A great thrusting dildo should keep you engaged, offering consistent performance, a realistic feel, and a design that’s both comfortable and body-safe. Features like rechargeable batteries, multiple speed settings, and reliable materials can make a big difference in overall experience.
Before choosing the right one, it’s worth taking some time to understand how these toys work and what features actually matter. Starting with the basics will help you make a more informed decision and find something that truly fits your needs.
To Thrust or Not to Thrust
To start, thrusting dildos are essentially compact, automated toys designed to simulate natural movement. They’re more affordable, easier to handle, and far more practical to store than full-size machines. Their main function is to create a rhythmic in-and-out motion, helping deliver a more realistic and effortless experience.
That said, they’re not just about intensity. Many models also offer smoother, more controlled settings, allowing for gentler stimulation and a more gradual buildup depending on your preference.
They can also be used for different types of exploration, offering a range of sensations depending on speed, angle, and design. With the right settings, they can provide anything from subtle stimulation to more powerful, immersive experiences.
Seriously, from FAST and FURIOUS to deep and sloooooow, thrusting dildos are some of the most intense toys for adventurous singles, kinky couples and all kinds of nymphettes out there!
One Thrust at a Time…
If you really want to get the party pumping and you’re the type of girl who needs motion and penetration to reach the high plains, these toys will give you all of the benefits of a regular dildo plus the extra juice of a self-propelling thruster mechanism. You can use this toy for normal in-out penetration or you can turn on the energetic pulsing engine and go wild.
As for the basics, self thrusting toys give you the same sizes and lengths as classic dildos. But, they have an internal mechanism powered by an electric motor. While there are many types out there, they will most likely feature an accordion-like extendable design. Others will have a single-length shaft. They’ll sport a hollow interior that thrusts using magnetic force.
Push, Push, Bang, Bang
Here’s what you’ll get from your new thrusting dildo:
- Automatic hand-held or hands-free penetration that’s perfect for solo and couple play.
- All the core benefits you’d expect, including a well-shaped shaft, detailed texture, a defined tip, and in some designs, added elements for a more realistic look and feel.
- Unlike Mr. Quick Draw, your thrusting dildo machine will never let you down just when you’re about to climax.
- You can use most thrusting dildos for all kinds of vaginal and anal adventures. But you can also suck on them, too!
- They’re ideal for BDSM, DP play, teasing, G-spot edging, squirting and many other kinks.
- A thrusting dildo can push you to the max. It will allow you to explore all sorts of intense vaginal, clitoral and anal orgasms time and time again.
- What if a standard pulsator isn’t enough? You can also explore various designs that swirl, rotate, offer remote control or even VR features.
Time for a Little Self Love
At this point in my articles, I usually go deep and tell you about all the technical mumbo-jumbo. But since these toys are truly special, I want to give you a personal look into what it actually feels like to lose your “thrusting dildo virginity”.
In my case, I get soaking wet whenever I see sex machines and dildos in action. The way they pump and rotate makes me feel like I’m about to lose all control and surrender myself to a machine that knows exactly how I like to be penetrated.
What stopped me from getting an actual sex machine was obviously the steep cost of hundreds if not thousands of dollars. Luckily, I found thrusting dildos that perform the same basic functions but at a much lower cost and with tons of storage-friendly potential.
When I got my first thrusting dildo, I started by testing it out during some solo time, building anticipation before using it. I even paused to explore different sensations and get more comfortable with the toy. At one point, I found myself wondering how it would feel to turn it on and experiment in new ways. It was definitely an unexpected experience, but it added to the excitement and made me even more ready to continue.
It’s Sooooo Deep!
To continue, I applied some lubricant and started slowly, getting used to the movement before turning on the thrusting feature. It began with a gentle rhythm, and I gradually explored different settings to find what felt best. The experience wasn’t just about the motion, the texture and material felt smooth and comfortable, creating a consistent, enjoyable sensation. Adjusting the angle and pace made it easier to find the right kind of pressure and overall rhythm that worked for me.
Mind you, I was already past orgasm #2 by this point and I simply knew that this dildo would not stop until I practically passed out. I was so horny that I spread my legs in front of a mirror and watched myself in the mirror.
Honestly, I was trying to keep up with the toy’s constant rhythm, and once I got into it, everything else just faded away. The experience was incredibly intense, building into a full-body sensation that left me completely relaxed and satisfied. Afterward, I put it away knowing it was something I’d definitely come back to again soon.
Moral of the story? Besides helping you shoot out your wildest orgasms, thrusting sex toys will bring out your strangest fantasies and make you feel extra naughty while expressing your sexual desires (and don’t forget my mirror trick for later!).
Thump It, Baby
Now that I’ve sparked your imagination, you can search out the automatic thrusting dildo from your biggest fantasies and look into several factors:
- Color
- Style
- Size
- Material
- Power
- Design
- Extra Features
You can pick your toy depending on all that, but it’s likely that you’ll start by checking out the way it looks. Is it a treat for the eyes as well as your body? Well, if you need a big, hard penis, then treat yourself to a realistic thrusting dildo.
But obviously, I’m not forcing you to take a massive dildo that looks like a dick. Not unless you want me to. There are plenty of non-phallic pulsators out there. They have special non-conventional designs. They’re great for people who aren’t all that into real dicks or just want something new. Either way, let me break down the two main thrusting dildo styles:
Extendable Dildo
Accordion-like designs are the most common. They have a long shaft that’s similar to standard dildos, but you’ll see a thrusting mechanism along the length. You’ll typically find it behind the head or at the base. The mechanism pumps the shaft back and forth to create the sensation of movement inside your body. This design is ideal for deep, fast and precise movements.
Single-Length Dildo
The second type is hollow on the inside. It produces the thumping sensation via internal magnets. With magnetic force, the entire dildo thrusts up and down. Magnets, baby!
This creates a different effect compared to the previous design. It produces a unique rocking sensation that moves the whole thing while it’s inside you. Also, while the previous type is best for deep penetration, this kind of design gives you shallower and gentler pumping movements.
Main Types of Thrusting Dildos
Almost all the self thrusting dildos I’ll describe below come in dick-like or non-conventional designs. That includes:
Silicone Thrusting Dildos
Automatic thrusting dildos are basically the best type you can get. They are made using stretchy and soft silicone. Silicone is the most popular material for standard dildos as well as countless other sex toys.
You’ll instantly recognize the velvety texture of these smooth toys. But what you also need to know is that they are 100% body-safe. Plus, they don’t give off funky smells and they’ll last a lifetime.
What’s genuinely important here is that the thrusting mechanism pairs exceptionally well with silicone. Meaning you’ll feel even the tiniest nuances all the way up to a hardcore plowing.
Plastic Thrusting Dildos
If you need something that’s harder than silicone, ABS plastic should be first on your list. Thrusting toys made of ABS plastic are not so common, but you’ll still be able to find some quality options if you need an extra-hard goober.
While ABS plastic is also body-safe, the main difference between this kind of dildo and a silicone one is the toughness of the material. Namely, it’s not bendy or flexible. This gives you more pressure inside. You’ll tighten up around it much harder as it pumps away!
Rubber Thrusting Dildos
Newbies should avoid rubber thrusting toys as well as those made of latex or jelly. They are cheap, extremely common and are usually made by unknown brands. During the manufacturing process, toxic chemicals called phthalates get added to the material and this makes them highly unsafe for the skin. Also, their surface is porous and they will crawl with nasty bacteria after a while.
Some of them can look the same as silicone thrusters, so don’t get them mixed up. If you must, you can still use them with condoms, but you have to pay extra attention while cleaning them.
TPE Thrusting Dildos
Another common choice you’ll see out there are TPE thrusting sex toys. These dildos are similar to silicone options. Yet, they feel a bit more bendy. They’re also much softer, but the caveat is that TPE is a slightly porous material. It’s not full of phthalates, which means you can use it safely if you want a softer and super-squishy fake penis.
Nevertheless, I would only recommend this toy if you know what you’re doing. You’ll need to know how to clean it thoroughly and even swap it out for a new one every few months.
Boost Your Thrusting Fun With One of These:
- Rabbit thrusting dildo – If you want to add more juice to a classic rabbit vibrator, just use the thrusting version! Thrusting rabbit dildos will literally blast you into space with a long, thick shaft that pumps automatically, plus a built-in clitoral stimulator for external clit-satisfying madness.
- Rotating thrusting dildo – If you don’t like the sensation of thrusting, but you still need to feel some movement down there, a rotating dildo will turn your world upside down. These types have rotating shafts instead of those that thrust, but you can also find a combination of in-out motions and tingly swirls!
- Vibrating thrusting dildo – Vibrating thrusting dildos are some of my favorites! A vibrating and thrusting dildo will give you all the hot pumping action plus extra-strong pulsations. Even better, if you need vibration to get off, all of the variants I’ve described above are available as vibrating and thrusting dildos. They’ll give you unforgettable pulse-pounding sensations!
- XL thrusting dildo - Brace yourselves, size Queens – Size queens, this is your moment! If nothing satisfies you like extra-large toys, XL thrusting dildos will absolutely deliver – with over 10, 12 or more inches of length and serious girth!

What About Anal?
If you’re curious about anal use, you might be wondering: “Can I use any thrusting dildo for that?” In general, it’s important to choose a toy that’s specifically designed to be anal-safe, meaning it’s made from non-porous materials and includes a flared base for safety. With the right design and plenty of lubricant, you can explore comfortably and at your own pace.
If you’re interested in more advanced setups, some people prefer using separate toys for different types of stimulation. There are also options like double penetration dildos or specially designed plugs that offer a more intense experience. The key is to choose what feels right for your comfort level and build up gradually.
Don’t Ignore These Features:
Not all thrusting toys come with the same set of features. It’s smartest to look into them and see which one(s) you prefer:
- Suction cup
- Handle
- Shaft controls
- Remote controls
- Thrusting movement range
- Thrusting modes
- Vibration types
- Textures
- Squirting and ejaculating options
- Warming features
- Long-distance control
- VR compatibility
Buyer’s Guide: How to Buy the Hottest Thrusting Dildo for You
If a toy immediately catches your attention, it’s worth taking a moment to think beyond first impressions. A bold design might look appealing, but the real question is whether it delivers the kind of performance and experience you’re actually looking for.
In my opinion, the greatest dildo is the one that ticks all the right boxes for you. Don’t eat with your eyes only! First, look into all the details to see if your thruster has what it takes. So listen carefully to your dildo expert Scarlett:
Thrusting Style
To me, pulsators with extendable shafts are ideal for hard and fast penetration. The accordion-like design will give you precise and targeted movements. This type is fantastic for quick orgasms or long sexathons! I can especially recommend it to girls who love G-spot stimulation.
However, the single-shaft design also has a lot going for it. The mechanism doesn’t thrust from only one spot along the shaft. That way, it feels even more realistic. As I said, the movement is not so extreme. This makes it ideal for deep, slow and sensual penetration.
Stroke Length
The movement range will determine the penetrative impact of your toy. Most self thrusting dildos have a range of up to 1.5 or 2 inches. This means that their thrusting rods and their size will extend up to 1.5 or 2 inches.
If you’re just starting out, 1.5 inches will be just enough for you and you can always move up later on. I’m a fan of either 2- or 2.5-inch movements. It produces deep and intense penetration and lets me vary the stroke length to find the sweet spot.
Handle or Suction Cup?
One of the key decisions here is choosing between manual or hands-free use. If you prefer to guide the toy yourself and control the movement, look for a model with a handle. These are typically made from body-safe ABS plastic and provide a secure grip, making it easier to adjust positioning and intensity during use.
But, if you want to feel like you’re being filled up by the freaking Terminator, use a thrusting dildo with a suction cup. You can pick from two types. That includes a suction cup on the base or a separate telescopic base that can bend and rotate at all angles. Simply stick the suction cup onto a flat surface. Then, climb on top of your dildo or back your ass up against it and your toy will drill you like you’re the world’s next rodeo champion.
Controls
A quality pulsator will give you one or both of these control options:
- Shaft controls – You’ll usually get a button configuration directly on the handle.
- Remote controls – You might be able to configure the thrusting remotely via an included wireless remote. Some thrusting toys allow you to use your phone as a remote.
Here, you might not need to pay extra for a remote if you think that the shaft controls are enough for you. Just make sure that the buttons are easy to use. Shaft controls can be practical, especially if you need a portable dildo. However, they need to be ergonomically designed so that they won’t distract you while you’re edging yourself.
Additionally, having a remote control adds a more interactive element, making the experience feel more dynamic and customizable. It’s also especially useful for partner play, giving one person control and adding an extra layer of anticipation and excitement.
Materials and Textures
Which material is the best and safest? As I said, silicone might be the best all-around option. It feels incredible, it’s body-safe and it lasts for a long time. This is my favorite choice for a life-like fake dick as well as a non-conventional shape. It transfers the thrusting movements or any other features like vibration perfectly. Plus, it’s a breeze to clean.
What’s more, if you’ve already tried a silicone dildo, you can experiment with ABS plastic or TPE to get a different sensation altogether. As mentioned, ABS will give you a rigid shaft. Alternatively, TPE will feel softer compared to silicone.
Thrusting Modes
You should also find a variety of thrusting modes. This could include 8 to 10 or more settings. They’ll provide different speeds, lengths and patterns. You should aim to get a range of slow and fast speeds as well as tons of different rhythmic thrusting patterns. That way, you’ll be able to experiment with your self-propelling dildo infinitely and you’ll find the most orgasmic thrusting modes for you.
If you’re looking for a dildo that vibrates and rotates along with the thrusting, make sure you inspect all the settings it’s capable of before you dish out the cash. My advice? The more options, the better!
App Control, Ejaculation, Long-Distance and VR
And what if thrusting, rotation, and vibration still aren’t quite enough? Some advanced models also include fluid features designed to enhance realism, adding another layer to the overall experience for those who enjoy that kind of functionality.
Some advanced thrusting models also include fluid features designed to enhance realism, offering an added layer of immersion for those who enjoy that kind of experience. Alternatively, you might prefer options with smart heating functions, which can provide a more natural and comfortable feel during use.
Moreover, the newest and most popular extra features right now are all about long-distance control, VR syncing and app compatibility:
- Long-distance – Some dildos will give you video-chat options plus toy-syncing capabilities to allow you to have sex with your partner even if you’re in another country.
- VR – Virtual reality – compatible thrusting toys can sync with supported 2D or 3D content to create a more immersive experience. Once connected, their movements adjust in real time to match what’s happening on screen, offering a more interactive and responsive form of stimulation.
- App control – App control is not only fabulous for long-distance relationships. If you have a Bluetooth or Wi-Fi-enabled thrusting dildo, you can control it with an app. You can use your phone as a remote. You’ll also get extended control of your toy. For instance, the app lets you configure all sorts of thrusting modes, make your own vibrating patterns and sync the dildo movements to music.
How Big Do You Want It?
The rabbit hole just gets deeper and deeper! You can treat yourself to just about any size or shape of these dildos out there. That includes straight, curvy, thin or extra wide. But to find the right size, focus on the stroke length plus the total insertable length. For most beginners, 5 inches with a 1.5 extendable shaft will be more than enough.
Nevertheless, there’s no harm in wanting more and that’s purely subjective. For example, nothing pleases me more than to see my favorite larger toys pushing inside me to their fullest depth! So if you’re into it, treat yourself to that huge 10-inch fake penis. If not, remember that bigger is not always better. Just use a size that you know you will enjoy.
How Much Should You Spend?
Thrusting toys are not the cheapest, but they can still fit most budgets. Realistically, you’ll need to pay around:
- $50 to $100 – This will get you a quality thumper that uses premium materials and offers basic thrusting settings. You’ll also find features like vibration, warming, suction cups and more for this price.
- $100 to $200 – You’ll find most of the next-gen toys from companies like Lelo, Fun Factory or Adam & Eve for this price. They’ll give you unique designs plus premium features such as app-control, long-distance options and VR capabilities.
Do…
- Try to get a waterproof thrusting dildo. Waterproofing will protect the mechanism during cleaning. It will also allow you to use your dong in the shower.
- The power is where it’s at – You don’t want to pay for an awesome-looking thruster that can only last for 15 minutes, right? Look for USB-rechargeable options that can run for at least an hour on a single charge.
- Buy your dildo from a respected brand and avoid the no-name copies.
Don’t…
- Don’t underestimate the importance of features such as the thrusting style, stroke length and stroke speed.
- Avoid the cheap options: they mostly use poor materials and ill-designed mechanisms that simply won’t perform as you need them to!
Tips on Using, Cleaning and Storing Your Thrusting Dildos
Honestly, I enjoy using thrusting toys with a partner because they add control, anticipation, and a completely different kind of intensity. They’re also some of the most versatile pleasure gadgets out there, with plenty of ways to experiment depending on your mood, comfort level, and setup. So let’s focus on the three main ways to use them:
- Clit – You don’t always have to insert your thruster! You can use the pulsating head directly on your clit. The thumping will produce all kinds of intense tingles that are much different from a classic vibrator.
- Vaginal Use – Slide it in and feel the thunder! You can experiment with manual or hands-free settings and try out all sorts of speeds to find what works the best for your orgasms. My tip? Use a suction cup! And if you want dual stimulation, a rabbit thrusting vibrator will be the best decision of your life!
- Ass – As mentioned, you can use your thrusting toy for deep anal stimulation or gentle external pressure.
Lube It Up!
There are plenty of other ways to explore these toys, including oral play, partner play, and more adventurous scenarios, depending on what you’re comfortable with. Whether you’re using it vaginally or anally, plenty of lube will make the experience smoother, safer, and much more enjoyable.
So don’t forget to apply some on your dildo. It will eliminate any “pins and needles” thrusting friction and make everything feel more tingly. But, only use the correct lube for your toy. I’d recommend a quality water-based lube because it works for all materials.
Use Your Dildo Safely
Don’t overdo it. Note that most thrusting dongs have sensitive internal mechanisms, so you should handle them carefully. As stated, the most reliable options are waterproof dildos. You should also be careful while using them inside you. Try not to push them in too deep because they can bump up against your cervix.
Clean Up
Nobody likes a sticky, stinky dildo covered in dried goo and it’s your responsibility to prevent such disasters! The best way to clean your toy thoroughly after you’re done is to use warm water and mild soap. If your dildo is waterproof, soak it; if not, use a damp cloth.
My pro tip here is to clean the entire body of the toy and make the material spotless. Some accordion-like thrusters will be trickier to clean due to all the small crevices.
Still, you’ll be able to make it work with a thin cloth. Then, your toy needs to be 100% dry before you can store it and use it again. Doing all that will eliminate any dirt or bacteria build-up. Just remember to put your dildo away in a soft carrying pouch or a clean plastic box.
Thrusting Dildo Mistakes to Avoid
- Using a non-waterproof model in the shower or bath – several models on our list are not waterproof (Velvet Teddy GS, NS Novelties Renegade, Blush Dr. Murphy). Submerging them permanently damages the mechanism. Always check the waterproof rating before water use.
- Going too deep too fast – thrusting dildos do the thrusting for you at the speed you select. Starting on maximum thrust can push the toy further than you’re comfortable with before you’ve had time to adjust. Always start on the lowest setting.
- Using silicone lube on a silicone toy – permanently degrades the material. Water-based lube only for all silicone thrusting dildos.
- Forgetting to clean the accordion sections – the crevices in accordion-style mechanisms harbour bacteria if not cleaned thoroughly. Use a thin cloth or cotton swab to reach the folds after every session.
- Using a toy without a flared base for anal play – if there is no base, handle or safety flare, a thrusting dildo is not safe for anal use. The mechanism can push the toy beyond your reach.
- Storing the toy without drying the mechanism – moisture inside the accordion sections or motor housing causes bacterial growth and can corrode the mechanism. Air-dry completely before storing.
A Look Into the Thrusting Dildos Industry
It’s a dildo! It’s a sex machine! It’s a vibrator! Honey, a thrusting sex toy is all that and much, much more. But how were these amazing orgasm gadgets invented and what does the future hold for them?
History of Thrusting Dildos: Doctor’s Orders!
The origins of mankind’s relationship with mechanical sex toys is just fascinating. In fact, the first sex machines were designed by doctors to relieve female “hysteria” by inducing orgasms. However, all the “hysteria” was just a term for any kind of behavior that didn’t fit the norm, including anxiety or nervous outbursts.
By the 1600s, doctors across Europe had come up with all sorts of mechanical contraptions as a cure for “hysteria”. But, it was in the 1880s that the first mechanical sex toy was invented. This was the granddaddy of them all, aka the vibrator.
However, sex machine toys truly evolved in the 20th century. Early on, you were able to get an automatic blowjob machine or even a saddle-type vibrator. That’s when the most iconic floor-standing models with thrusting dildos were invented.
In the decades that followed, sex machines with vacuum pumps, thrusters with electrical shocks, the iconic Sybian and even pedal-powered dildo bikes were invented. Hand-held thrusting dildos were made in the late 20th century and the rest is history. Heck, you can even visit sex-machine conferences like Arse Elektronika to see the latest and greatest in the world of mechanical sex!
The Future of Machine-Powered Sex
Obviously, technology and our kinky desires are developing at a fast pace. If you need to keep up with the trends, you’ll be glad to learn that most of the top names in the business are constantly innovating. I’ve already told you about some next-gen features of thrusting dildos, like VR or teledildonics, but I think there’s much more in store for you in the coming years.
So think about life-size Ken dolls with self-thrusting toys, smart dildos that make it feel like you’re actually having sex with someone and even more advanced VR or AI capabilities. For now, it’s your turn to play woman vs. machine. So get your thrusting dildo today and let’s ride!
FAQ
The main difference is that a standard dildo will not give you any automated pumping action. A thrusting toy has a built-in mechanism, which will make it slightly heavier and a bit less bendy. However, it will look very similar to a standard dildo. The biggest benefit of a thrusting toy is that you don’t have to push it in and out manually and you can use the mechanism to configure all sorts of self-propelled penetrative action.
Yes. Generally, thrusting dildos do not vibrate. If you need vibration and motion to get off, it may be better to get a thrusting vibrator. This toy gives you all the benefits of a thrusting doing, but with extra vibration functions.
While these toys are quite safe from the get-go, just remember to find one that uses body-safe materials and to also use it carefully. For example, pushing it in too deep could make it bump against your cervix just like a big penis would. You could feel some discomfort if you do this accidentally, but it’s usually nothing to worry about.
Absolutely! If your BF is into it, you can use the dildo on him. For example, you can tease externally with the tip. If he’s ready, you can push the dildo inside him and turn on the thrusting motions. Some men will genuinely enjoy this because the dildo will stimulate their prostates and result in unique P-spot orgasms. Just remember to get his permission first!
This style of dildos covers several bases at once. If you love to feel pressure on your clitoris during penetration, a rabbit thrusting dildo may be your best bet! It will give you a built-in clit massager to play with and you’ll be able to turn it on when you insert the toy. That way, you can double the fun and experience all sorts of intense stimulation!
A thruster could be a fantastic toy for lesbian sex. But first, you need to see if your partner is okay with it. They may not be into using a penis-shaped dildo, but you can still have fun if you choose a non-phallic dildo. Plus, you can use a pulsator with a strap-on harness to make penetration even more intimate.
Yes, but not exactly. No toy can replicate all the sensations that we feel during sex with another person. However, a soft thrusting toy will feel insanely realistic when you penetrate yourself with it. The material, along with thrusting motions, lube and even some of the warming features, will get you incredibly close to the real deal.
The method depends on whether your toy is waterproof. For waterproof thrusting dildos (check the IPX rating), warm water and mild soap is the easiest approach – you can run it under a tap or rinse the entire toy. For non-waterproof models (several on our list, including the Velvet Teddy GS, NS Novelties Renegade and Blush Dr. Murphy), use a damp cloth only – never submerge. Accordion-style thrusting mechanisms are the trickiest to clean because of the small crevices between the extension sections; a thin soft cloth or cotton swab works well here. Always air-dry fully before storing. Store in a dedicated soft pouch to prevent dust and bacteria build-up.
Choose a smaller model (5-6 inches) with simple controls, a comfortable handle and a softer silicone material. From our list, the NS Novelties Renegade is specifically flagged as ‘probably the best option on the market’ for first-time thrusting dildo users – it’s smaller than Scarlett’s preference, but that’s exactly what makes it right for beginners. The Master Series Power Pounder is also ideal if you want a non-slip handle for your first session. Avoid XL models and multi-mode rabbit thrusters as your first purchase.
Yes – most thrusting dildos can be used anally, but you must check two things first.
1. The toy must have a flared base or handle that prevents it from travelling too far internally. Accordion-style thrusters with a long handle are generally safe; slim models without any base flare are not suitable for anal use.
2. Use a non-porous material (silicone) for anal play – porous materials like TPE and rubber cannot be fully sterilized and carry higher infection risk for anal use. From our list, the Velvet Teddy GS (suction cup base) and the Lovense Gravity (suction cup) are both suitable for external anal positioning. Always use significantly more lube for anal use than vaginal.
Noise is the most common complaint with thrusting dildos, especially at higher speeds. The accordion-style mechanism is inherently louder than the magnetic single-shaft type. Tips for quieter sessions:
1. Use a folded towel under or around the toy base – fabric absorbs vibration noise.
2. Avoid hard floors or tiled surfaces, which amplify mechanical sound.
3. Start at lower settings and build up slowly rather than jumping to maximum thrust speed.
From our list, the Fun Factory Stronic Real is specifically praised for being ‘relatively quiet even at the speediest and most intense vibrations’ – it uses a magnetic mechanism rather than an accordion. The Velvet Teddy GS is flagged as loud on high settings.
