The bathroom is the ultimate spot for steamy, wet play with your suction cup dildo. The shower wall—especially if it’s tiled—is smooth, hard, and perfect for sticking your toy. For the best seal, attach your dildo before turning on the water or filling the tub.
For maximum pleasure, face away from the wall with the dildo positioned horizontally. Bend over for vaginal penetration or backdoor fun—it’s the easiest and most natural position. Facing the wall can be tricky unless you’re super flexible or have a longer dildo to work with.
Safety first! If you’re planning to spend a lot of quality time with your suction cup dildo in the shower, consider installing a permanent bathtub handle for support. A non-slip rubber mat is also a smart investment to prevent any slippery mishaps.
Want to take it up a notch? Grab a waterproof chair designed for bath or shower use. Stick your dildo to the chair for a more comfortable experience, or use the chair for leverage by holding onto the back while standing. Many tub chairs come with suction cups on the legs to keep them steady during play. You can also prop one leg up on the seat to adjust your angle for deeper penetration while standing.
One last tip: don’t stick your dildo to the glass shower door. Glass doors are fragile and could break, especially if you’re thrusting against them. Safety first, folks!
Best Ways to Use a Suction Cup Dildo: 6 Top Tips
1. Always use Lube with a Suction Cup Dildo
Sure, water is wet, but it actually creates friction during sex—not exactly the smooth experience you’re aiming for. So, always grab a sexual lubricant for your bath-time adventures to make things slippery, pleasurable, and oh-so-satisfying with your trusty suction cup dildo.
A hybrid lube (water- and silicone-based) is your best bet—it’s compatible with most suction cup dildo materials and won’t wash off as easily as a water-based lube would.
One concern about shower sex is that lube or soap can make things extra slippery. To keep things safe, a non-slip rubber mat is a must-have. It’s a small investment for peace of mind while you’re busy having fun.
For a natural option, try this natural silk lube from Sliquid Organics—it’s smooth, long-lasting, and perfect for your steamy shower sessions.

The side of a bathtub is perfect for straddling your dildo (just like you would with a partner). Simply stick the suction cup dildo to the tub’s edge, lower yourself onto it, and ease into your rhythm. Meanwhile, the toilet seat gets rave reviews from our community—it’s sturdy, provides a comfortable height, and is an excellent base for bouncing action.
“This is our first suction cup toy, and it’s been in the shower almost every day since we got it—either me or my wife can’t get enough!” – Trine, iDear customer and forum member.
If the idea of warm water cascading over your body while you play sounds irresistible, stick your trusty companion to the shower tiles at a height that works for you and ride away to your heart’s content. And if the showerhead happens to provide some extra stimulation? Well, life just doesn’t get much better than that.
3. Stick the Suction Cup Dildo Somewhere Firm: Table, Wall, or Floor
A sturdy, smooth, flat surface is non-negotiable for your suction cup dildo—once you’ve got that, you’re good to go! Wooden or tiled floors and walls are the most reliable options, giving you plenty of locations around the house to explore.
If you’re lucky enough to have access to a massage table, it’s an excellent base for suction cup dildo play—it’s designed to support the weight of most adults. Just make sure to lower it to its lowest setting for safety.
A nightstand or coffee table is another fantastic option. They’re usually at the perfect height for some playful antics with your new “partner.”
4. Stick the Suction Cup Dildo Somewhere Reflective: Mirror
Mirrors are the perfect surface for your suction cup dildo—not only do they provide a sturdy base, but they also give you the added bonus of a fantastic view.
“The headboard, a dining room chair, the kitchen countertop, and most kinky of all, the mirror—are just a few places I’ve used this! I love this toy, especially when my husband is away, because it’s so lifelike.” – Horny Hairdresser, iDear customer and forum member.
Attach your dildo to a mirror on the floor and watch yourself ride up and down for an extra layer of fun. If you have a wall-mounted mirror with a stable setup, try doggy style for some added eye candy (for you and your partner). The visual stimulation will take things to the next level.
5. Strap In for a Good Time
The ever-versatile suction cup dildo can be paired with a variety of strap-on harnesses, opening up a world of exciting play options for you and your partner.
“I needed a strap-on compatible dildo that wasn’t overly realistic, wasn’t too thin or small, had a reasonable price tag, and was a realistic (but filling) size. This is the answer.” – PrfsrChaos, iDear customer and forum member.
Strapping on a dildo paves the way for vaginal and anal penetration that might otherwise be tricky to achieve—whether or not you’re a couple with a naturally-occurring penis. For even more ideas, check out our collection of Strap-On Harnesses and Kits.

If the idea of a threesome gets your heart racing but the reality of adding another person to the mix has been shot down by your partner, a suction cup dildo is the perfect compromise.
“I ordered this for my fiancée to play out our MMF fantasy. It doesn’t disappoint. Watching it slide into her and seeing her face—pure magic.” – LPMG, iDear customer and forum member.
Stick it wherever you like and ride your silicone lover for a threesome simulation, or go down on it while your partner takes you from behind (aka a ‘spit roast’). These are just a couple of ideas—feel free to get creative and experiment with your extra “guest” in the room.

Surfaces to Avoid When Using a Suction Cup Dildo
Steer clear of any furniture that isn’t sturdy enough to support both you and your enthusiastic thrusting—or that isn’t securely mounted to the floor or wall.
Uneven surfaces are a no-go, too. Think wainscoting, cracks between tiles, stucco walls, and some wooden surfaces. The suction cup needs a smooth, even surface to work its magic.
And please, avoid breakable surfaces like thin mirrors, glass windows or doors, glass coffee tables, or anything that could shatter. Sure, it might sound like a cool idea in the moment, but trust me—you’ll thank me later for skipping it.
Soft areas, like carpets, are also out. Any surface that’s soft or squishy—like a mattress, pillow, carpet, the arm of your couch, or a beanbag chair—isn’t going to cut it. That includes your big plushie toy, too—sorry!
Suction Cup Dildo Positions: Best Ways to Ride Solo (or with a Partner)
There are plenty of steamy sex positions to explore with your trusty suction cup dildo. We’ve rounded up 10 of the hottest ones to spark your imagination and get your engines revving.
1. Doggy Style
Dildo Position: Horizontal
Doggy style is a fan favorite for suction cup enthusiasts—just attach your dildo to a wall or headboard, adjust the height, and back onto it. You’re in full control of the angle, depth, and speed.
Pro Tip: Place the dildo by inserting the tip into your vagina or anus first, then ease back against the wall in doggy style. Once positioned, secure it firmly before enjoying the ride. Add a soft comforter under your knees to avoid rug burn, or use a pillow to support your chest if you want to lower yourself closer to the ground. For extra G-spot stimulation, place a Liberator Position Enhancer under your waist to elevate your hips.
2. Queening
Dildo Position: Vertical
This position gets its name from facesitting—but instead of a face, you’ll be riding your eager silicone partner. Queening is perfect for honing your dildo-riding skills while toning your thighs and glutes. Stick your dildo to a smooth, clean floor and either squat or kneel over it. Squatting requires strong legs and good knees, so kneeling might work better for some.
Pro Tip: For added comfort, attach the dildo to an upside-down sturdy steel mixing bowl to create more height, saving your thighs from overworking. Pair it with a vibrator that mimics oral sex for dual stimulation, or use a sex pillow with a toy mount for extra support and pleasure.
3. Open Pike Position
Dildo Position: Horizontal
The Open Pike position involves standing with your back to the wall, leaning forward so your torso is horizontal to the floor. A chair can be your best friend here—use it to steady yourself as you lean forward for better balance.
Pro Tip: Try using a double dildo with a suction cup base or two suction cup dildos stacked vertically for simultaneous vaginal and anal penetration. It may take some skillful alignment, but the exquisite fullness and combo orgasms make it worth the effort.
4. Rock and Roll Bar Stool
Dildo Position: Vertical
This position requires a bar stool near a kitchen countertop. Face the countertop, lean forward, and brace yourself for deeper penetration. The ideal stool will have a flat, sturdy surface like plastic, metal, or wood. Make sure it’s stable—nobody wants a mid-session collapse!
Pro Tip: Use a swivel bar stool and rock your hips side to side for a “rock and roll” dildo experience.
5. The Swing Ding
Dildo Position: Horizontal
Using a door can add a playful twist to your session. Stick your dildo to the edge of a door, position it just right with the tip inside you, and use the doorknob to swing the door back and forth for a hands-free backdoor adventure.
Pro Tip: Tie a rope around the doorknob for easier pulling and to help you build the perfect rhythm.
6. Playing Secretary
Dildo Position: Vertical
Fancy a naughty office fantasy? Mount yourself on a sturdy desk with your feet resting on a secure chair below. Let your imagination run wild as you recreate scenes from the movie Secretary.
Pro Tip: Invite your partner to watch as you roleplay submissive fantasies. Just remember—don’t actually use your boss’s desk! Stick to your own furniture.
7. Sex Around the House
Dildo Position: Vertical
Take your suction cup dildo on a house tour! Experiment with portable flat surfaces like Tupperware containers, metal mixing bowls, marble cutting boards, or cookie sheets to transform any comfy spot into a playground.
Pro Tip: Attach your dildo to a metal cookie sheet and place it on the edge of your couch for a steamy Netflix-and-chill session.
Other Suction Cup Dildo Ideas
Oral Delights
While your trusty suction cup dildo is amazing at delivering pleasure, don’t forget to return the favor and practice your expert oral skills on it. Sure, it might feel a little odd to go down on an inanimate object, but I once had a friend who practiced this regularly—and let me tell you, she was exceptional at giving head and deep-throating.
Here’s how to do it: Stick your dildo to a wall at about waist height, get into position, and show off your sexy sucking skills. With a little practice, you’ll be blowing minds (and other things) in no time.
Expert Tip: Add a blindfold to the mix and let your imagination take over. Picture your lover in front of you as you perfect your technique—it’s all about creating that mental connection while honing your skills.
FAQs and Safety Precautions When Using Suction Cup Dildos
As with any physical activity, it’s important to take precautions and avoid overdoing it. Some positions can be physically demanding and may leave you with a sore back, cramped legs, or even a sprained ankle—so listen to your body and take breaks when needed.
Always use lubrication with your dildo, as friction can cause dryness, chafing, or discomfort. A good lube not only enhances pleasure but also ensures a smoother experience.
Only attach your dildo to sturdy surfaces or objects that are firmly mounted to the floor or braced against a wall. Avoid using it on unstable furniture or fragile materials like glass doors or windows.
If switching between anal and vaginal play, clean your toy thoroughly in between uses. Going from anal to vaginal without cleaning is a big no-no, as harmful bacteria can lead to infections. Keep your lady bits happy and healthy by practicing proper hygiene.
Care and Cleaning Tips
Taking care of your new favorite toy is key to keeping it in tip-top shape. With proper care, most modern dildos can last for years—or even a lifetime!
After every use, clean your dildo with a dedicated sex toy cleaner, wet wipes, or mild soap and water. For best results, follow our sex toy cleaning guide to ensure it stays lint- and dust-free, which helps maintain its suction ability.
For storage, keep your toy in its original box or a plastic zip-lock bag to protect it from dust and dirt. Store it in a cool, dry place away from heat sources. And remember: never store your dildo (or any sex toy) until it’s completely dry to prevent mold or damage.
Frequently Asked Questions
Need a little extra guidance? No worries—we’ve got you covered. Here are answers to some common questions:
My suction cup dildo won’t stick! What should I do?
Try applying a small dab of water-based lube to the suction base to create a better seal. If that doesn’t work, make sure both the surface and the suction cup are clean and free of dirt or debris. You might also want to try a smoother, flatter surface for optimal sticking power.
Yikes! My dildo won’t unstick!
No stress, lover. Grab a thin credit card (or something similar) and gently slide it under the edge of the suction cup base. Once air gets in, the dildo will pop right off. Easy peasy!
Takeaway
There are endless steamy ways to use a suction cup dildo to create mind-blowing, body-shaking orgasms—seriously, the possibilities are limitless! Expand your orgasm potential by experimenting with different positions, surfaces, and creative ideas until you discover what works best for you.
The more you practice, the better you’ll get at finding what feels amazing, which means more intense pleasure and unforgettable moments that take you straight to your happy place.
