Choose the right masturbator for your penis size

With this guide, the LOVE Team aims to help you find a masturbator that is perfectly adapted to the size of your penis, optimising comfort, pleasure and the durability of your toy.

Comfort remains the priority. If your masturbator is too tight, this can cause pain due to excessive pressure. If it’s too loose, you’ll be missing out on some of the sensations offered by your masturbator. Using a masturbator that isn’t the right size for your penis can also cause your toy to wear out faster. When you opt for a model that suits your dimensions, you’ll be getting the most out of the sensations produced by its internal textures, you’ll avoid any discomfort that may come from a badly adapted toy, and you’ll increase your masturbator’s longevity.

In order to work out the diameter of your penis whilst erect, we recommend you measure first the circumference using a ribbon or a piece of string, then divide this measurement by π (3,14). Our how-to guide “How to Measure Your Penis” explains this process in more detail. We also recommend you repeat this process various times at different moments to ensure you get a reliable average.

The three categories proposed in this section correspond to thresholds that best reflect the differences in sensations as well as necessary adjustments depending on your shape. You’ll find a selection of masturbators adapted to each category.

A slimmer penis requires a masturbator with a tighter internal canal so that it fits nicely over your member. A well fitting opening is vital in order to maintain pressure without it becoming painful. Let’s take a look at some of the models that the LOVE Team recommend:

You’ll also be able to enjoy pronounced internal textures, maximising those tightening feelings.

This is the average category that most people fall into, giving them the choice from a large range of masturbators (textured, vibrating, heated etc.). This range has a number of ‘standard’ models designed to house penises with diameters up to 2.00 inches.

For wider penises, an ample inner canal and stretchy material are required in order to avoid discomfort and tearing of the toy.

For more comfort, we recommend you opt for softer shells or adjustable systems (straps, stretchy materials), and to use a good amount of lube.

Although width is the most important, you should pay attention to the depth and length of your masturbator. If you have a longer member, make sure to go for a toy that is deep enough to cover your shaft and to avoid any risk of hitting the end. Oppositely, if you have a shorter penis, more compact options will offer more targeted stimulation, without losing out on intensity.

In order to be able to enjoy your masturbator for longer, it’s vital you clean it before and after every use using lukewarm water and a gentle soap, or a specialised cleaning spray. You must let your masturbator dry fully, ideally letting it air dry, or by dabbing it down with a clean towel. You can store your toy away in its box or in a protective cover to keep it away from dust. We advise you to use a water-based lube to preserve the material’s quality and avoid undesirable chemical reactions.

Choosing a masturbator that is adapted to the width of your penis is essential in giving you an experience that is both comfortable and intense. No matter what category you fit into- under 1.25 inches, between 1.25 inches and 2.00 inches, or above 2.00 inches- there are various different models to satisfy all preferences. Don’t forget to verify the length of your penis if it doesn’t fall within the average size range. Ensure to respect cleaning advice in order to increase the longevity of your toy. You’ll now be able to choose the masturbator that best fits you and your needs so that with every use, you will experience ultimate pleasure.
