The 8 Best Anal Dildos

Why I Chose It

I chose the Lovehoney Curved Suction Cup Dildo as the overall best anal dildo as it’s just a great all-round anal dildo at a very accessible price! In my years of testing dildos and anal toys, I’ve learned that sometimes, simpler is better, and this dildo is a perfect example of that!

The simplicity of this dildo left our tester, Ashley, a little underwhelmed at first, but she soon changed her mind once she tried it!

“My first impression of the Lovehoney Curved 7″ Silicone Suction Cup Dildo was a little underwhelming at first. It didn’t look like much, and I wasn’t sure what to think about it. After using it however, I changed my mind pretty quick!”

“The quality of the Lovehoney Curved 7″ Silicone Suction Cup Dildo is very good! The silicone doesn’t feel cheap, and it’s very smooth and soft. It’s sturdy, but still flexible as it needs to be for play.”

Dildos need to be a little more solid for anal play, as it can be very difficult to insert a soft, squishy dildo. I feel like the Lovehoney Curve has the perfect amount of flex to make it comfortable, pleasurable, and easy to use.

Ashley also put the suction cup to the test for us and was impressed by it’s staying power!

“I used the suction cup on my shower wall, which is pretty notorious for nothing sticking to it, especially my loofah holder!!! But it stuck really well, even for the interesting cup shape.”

Another reason I chose the Lovehoney Curved Suction Cup Dildo as the best anal dildo is the price!  At under $30, it’s the cheapest dildo in the review and a real bargain for such a versatile dildo! Ashley also agreed!

“The Lovehoney Curved 7″ Silicone Suction Cup Dildo is priced at $26.99, this toy is a good bargain for someone strapped for cash.”

Why I Chose It

I think the Tantus Charmer is the best anal dildo I have used personally, which is why I had to pick it as the runner up! It’s not quite as much of an all rounder as the test winner, but it’s certainly a fantastic anal dildo, and I would recommend it without hesitation.

I initially bought the Tantus Charmer for vaginal use but realised I much preferred using this purple Charmer anally! The head is the widest part of the dildo and feels lovely to insert. I really like that the shaft slims towards the base as it allows your anus tighten around it and then stretch again as you remove it, and you can feel the head more as it’s inserted and removed.

The whole dildo is also relatively slim, meaning I don’t need to warm up before using it, and some days, I really cannot be bothered to get multiple toys out and have to clean them all after! Even though it’s quite slim, the ridges and some interest — they are pretty subtle but still add an almost rippling sensation without being irritating.

I also have to admit, the lovely shimmery purple design is originally what caught my eye and it was just luck that it happened to turn out being one of my favorite anal dildos!

The only thing that would make this even better would be a nice strong suction cup!

Why I Chose It

I think the Tantus Silk is the ideal introduction to anal dildos! If I was to start my anal journey again, this is the dildo I would want to start it with!

The size and design isn’t intimidating in any way and is super easy to insert, while still being just big enough to be satisfying. Our tester, Kasia, was also fan of the Silk’s simplicity.

“I love the simplicity and the ease that comes with the Tantus Silk. It’s a perfect choice for those that are looking for a starter insertable toy, or just an easy and always accessible dildo.”

She did comment that it was a little small for her preferences for vaginal use but highlighted it was great for anal use.

“For me, the medium size turned out to be too small for a filling and stimulating experience, but I was not disappointed, I will definitely use it for foreplay, anal play, and many other fun and spicy bedroom activities!”

I also think this would make a fantastic pegging dildo as the wide base is designed to keep it steady in a harness. It is however a shame that it doesn’t have a suction cup base. I’m a fan of Tantus’ dildos in general and really love the quality of their silicone, but it is a shame they don’t tend to come with a suction cup base!

While the lack of texture might be underwhelming for some, this is what I think makes it such a great anal dildo for beginners — it’s so silky smooth that it will slide in with little resistance. I also have to agree with Kasia, the sparkly purple design is super cute!

“But what I really love about this dildo is the sparkly lavender color and non-realistic look, it’s just so fun and cute!”

Why I Chose It

I know that Lovense Loki is primarily a prostate massager, but if there’s one thing I’ve learnt about anal toys, is that anyone with a butt hole can enjoy them whether you have a prostate or not, and we all have butt holes!

I chose this as the best vibrating anal dildo because it delivers so much! Not only does it stimulate internally and externally on the perineum, it also has an internal stroking sensation that mimics being fingered.

Our tester, Kasia, put the Loki to test on her partner and both were impressed by what it could do!

“The Lelo Loki Wave 2 is an amazing pleasure toy! It’s got strong vibrations and a nice “filling” shape. The “come here” motion of the Loki Wave is no joke. It’s not just a gimmick—it actually feels incredible. The way it moves and vibrates together is a unique sensation that my partner couldn’t get enough of. It quickly became our favorite toy for his pleasure.”

While I personally wouldn’t buy this anal vibrator if I was anal beginner, now I have more experience and know that I enjoy anal vibrations, I do think it’s worth the investment.

Kasia and her partner only had one thing they were missing with the Loki Wave.

“I only wished there was a better option for controlling the settings. A physical remote control would be a great addition, but overall I think it’s a really great male sex toy.”

Having tried many different anal toys in my years reviewing sex toys, I really agree! Having a wireless remote or app controls really is a game changer for anal toys!

The njoy Pure Wand was another pivotal sex toy in my sex toy expert journey! Honestly, I didn’t know whether to be amazed or terrified when I lifted this weighty hunk of metal from it’s beautiful presentation box — it was a pretty exciting combination of emotions.

My fears were very much alleviated when I realised how amazing that weight felt inside me. If you haven’t tried a stainless steel dildo before, I cannot recommend it enough! The smoothness is just perfect for anal exploration as there is no dragging or resistance whatsoever.

I also love that the curve and weightiness combined actually does some of the work for you, making it easier to use the ball for a deep, satisfying massage. I will admit though, it’s heavy to use and can get a bit tiring if you want to use it more vigorously!

I personally really like that the mid section is slim so your anus can close around it, but that is a different experience than a more representational dildo that’s roughly the same width all the way down the shaft.

Another reason I think this is one of the best anal dildos out there is it has two different sized ends to play with, so you can start small and work up to the bigger end!

It’s definitely a bit of an investment, but I strongly believe everyone should have one metal dildo in their collection and when you consider how versatile it is, the price is actually pretty reasonable. Not to mention, this thing will last forever! Archeologists of the future will be digging it up and theorising of it’s uses in years to come!

While you might be thinking putting glass inside you sounds a little dangerous, I want to assure that it is not only safe, but incredibly pleasurable! I’ve put countless hours into researching sex toy safety so can say with certainty this is a safe material. Borosilicate glass is extremely strong, shatter resistant, and can be heated or cooled.

The reason I chose to include a glass dildo as one of the best anal dildo is the beautiful smoothness and how easily it glides with a slick of lube. The curved, beaded design also provides a sensation similar to anal beads as it’s inserted and removed. Our tester, Emily, was also a big fan of the design.

“The Lovehoney Sensual Glass Beaded Dildo was longer, thicker, heavier, and more bulbous, which made for excellent stimulation both externally and internally.”

She also enjoyed being able to use it for some temperature play.

“We ran it under hot water to heat it to a warmer temp, close to normal body temp, and also put it in the fridge for about 20 minutes to get a cold sensation. Both the cold and hot sensations were very fun to experiment with, internally and externally.”

One thing I will add about this glass dildo is that it doesn’t have a large flared base, so be sure not to insert the last bead and instead use it as a handle only.

Why I Chose It

Vixen Creations’ VixSkin dildos are life-changing. I’m not being at all dramatic when I say that! As a sex toy reviewer, I’ve tried all kinds silicone dildos, but nothing has come close the pleasure I have experienced with a VixSkin dildo. So while I haven’t tested the Johnny personally, I have tested the Buck and the Mustang so feel I have sufficient experience to sing these dildo’s praise from the rooftops!

The reason I went with the Johnny over the Buck or the Mustang as the best realistic anal dildo is that is sits happily between the two size wise and the balls add even more realism!

Our tester,  Kasia, was also impressed by just how realistic the Vixen Johnny was on all levels.

“Johnny is the most realistic dildo, I’ve ever encountered! At first, I was a bit weirded out by how realistic it looked, but after some time, I started admiring how beautiful (and big!) this penis was. But this dildo is not just the looks, it does feel very similar to an erect penis.”

It was even enough to convert her to enjoying realistic dildos!

“I was never a big fan of huge realistic dildos… but then I met Johnny. With his looks, perfect proportions, soft, juicy skin, and those dreamy balls, I knew Johnny was special! I am convinced that when Vixen was designing this dildo, they wanted to create the ideal penis.”

Her one complaint was that the base could do with a suction cup.

“I also like the addition of the flat base, although I think it’s a bit too big, and operating it solo is not super easy, but I don’t think it’s a big issue. Plus, thanks to the base, this dildo is anal-safe and you can use it with a harness!”

This is the dildo I would reach for if I wanted to recreate the sensation of anal sex is the most realistic feeling way possible.

The Slink from SquarePegToys is a truly a toy to marvel at! I consider myself pretty experienced when it comes to anal play, but I’ve not delved into depth play. However, our tester, George, is something of an expert so he knows what’s what when it comes to long anal dildos!

Of all the dildos he’s tried, the slink is one of his favorites and he gave it a perfect score of 5/5!

“I am currently yet to find any better toy for anal satisfaction. This is my favourite and I often take it with me on holidays. The price is high, but silicone costs a lot so it’s understandable.”

He admits a it’s a big toy but enjoys the challenge this large anal toy presents and satisfaction that comes with it.

“The top is very wiggly and easily slides in, however as soon as you get to the bottom bulb, the struggle begins. It’s a great type of struggle.”

“For me, twisting it slowly worked. Once you conquered the depth, the bulge at the end is another challenge. This is simply a patience game and once you manage to push it all the way in, you feel some sort of weird satisfaction.” 

From my perspective as a sex toy expert, the Slink also ticks a lot of the boxes for a good depth play toy – it’s made of body-safe silicone, which can be harder to find in larger toys, has a nice tapered tip, and is flexible enough to bend with the shape of your insides!

It goes without saying that this is not a beginners toy, but if I wanted to explore depth play, this would be a great option. It’s good to remember that you don’t have to insert all of it at once and can slowly work up to taking more and more over time.
