Blowjob Toy: How a Suction Male Masturbator Works and How to Use It

A blowjob toy is a male masturbator designed to recreate the feeling of oral sex. Instead of only stroking, it uses suction, vibration or both to pull and massage you the way a mouth would. To use one, add plenty of water-based lube, slide in slowly, start on the softest setting and let the toy do the work while you relax.

In this guide we explain how suction male masturbators work, how to use one step by step, and how our two oral-style toys compare: the Male Masturbator Vibrator, Blowjob Toy and the Dakota Automatic Sucking Vibrating Male Toy.

What is a blowjob toy?

"Blowjob toy" is the everyday name for a male masturbator built to feel like oral sex. A classic stroker is a soft sleeve you move up and down by hand. A blowjob toy adds motion of its own: suction that draws you in, and vibration that massages you at the same time. The result is a closer, more enveloping sensation, with less effort from your hand.

These toys are made for solo play, but they also work well when a partner wants to take control of the settings. Either way, the idea is simple: you set the pace, and the toy brings the sensation.

How does a suction male masturbator work?

Inside the toy there is a soft sleeve and a motor. When you turn it on, the motor creates suction inside the sleeve, so it gently pulls and releases around you. Many models add vibration on top, so you feel a pulling action and a buzzing massage together. Changing the mode changes the rhythm and the intensity, from soft and slow to strong and fast.

Because the toy moves on its own, you can hold it still, move it slowly or place it hands-free and simply enjoy the sensations. That is the big difference from a manual stroker.

How to use a blowjob toy, step by step

1. Get it ready. Make sure the toy is powered and ready, then rinse the sleeve with warm water and a mild soap before the first use.
2. Get in the mood. Arousal first makes everything more comfortable. Take a few minutes to relax before you start.
3. Use lots of lube. Apply water-based lube inside the opening and on yourself. Suction feels smoother and more natural with good lubrication. Our Water Base Lube works well here.
4. Slide in slowly. Hold the toy at the base and enter gently. Do not force it.
5. Start on the lowest setting. Turn it on at the softest mode and give yourself a moment to get used to the pulling feeling.
6. Explore the modes. Go up one setting at a time. With the Dakota, try different combinations of suction and vibration.
7. Find your position. Lie back, sit or stand. If you prefer, rest the toy on a pillow or between your thighs for a more hands-free session.
8. Go at your own pace. Slow down, pause or change mode whenever you want. There is no rush.
9. Clean it right away. After use, rinse and dry the sleeve so it is ready for next time.

Tips for a better experience

• Add more lube as you go. If the feeling becomes less smooth, a little extra lube brings it back.
• Warm the sleeve. Rinsing it with warm water before use makes the first touch more pleasant.
• Edge with the modes. Switch to a softer mode when you get close, then build up again. It is a fun way to make the session last longer.
• Do not rush the suction. Strong suction straight away can feel like too much. Build up gradually.
• Share the controls. If you play with a partner, let them choose the modes for a surprise element.

Blowjob toy vs automatic thrusting masturbator

Suction toys and thrusting toys feel very different. A blowjob toy pulls and massages you in place, closer to the feeling of a mouth. An automatic thrusting toy moves up and down along your length, closer to the feeling of penetration.

If you are curious about the thrusting style, our Warrior is a hands-free automatic masturbator with thrusting and rotating modes. Our automatic male masturbator guide explains how to use it step by step. For an overview of every type, from manual strokers to automatic toys, read our guide to male sex toys.

How to clean and store your toy

Good hygiene keeps your toy pleasant to use. After each session, rinse the sleeve with warm water and a mild soap, making sure you reach inside. The Dakota has a removable sleeve, so you can take it out and wash it separately. Let every part air dry completely before you put the toy back together.

Keep it somewhere clean and dry, out of direct sunlight, with its own space apart from your other toys. If you want to keep it out of sight, see the best places to hide your sex toys.

Which one should you choose?

• Choose the Blowjob Toy if you want 10 modes that range from soft kissing to intense oral simulation, in a simple toy that is easy to start with.
• Choose the Dakota if you want a strong pulling action, separate vibration settings and a removable sleeve for quick cleanup.

You can see both, together with our other toys for men, in the male sex toys collection.
