Fleshlight Go Surge Pink Lady Male Masturbator
Price: $ | Materials: Fleshlight SuperSkin, Plastic |
Product Type: Vagina masturbator | Hands-Free: No |
Insertable Length: 6.5 inches | Width: 3/8 inches |
Safety Features: Latex-Free, Phthalate-Free, Non-Toxic, Waterproof | Features: Vagina design, Compact form factor, Tight canal with aggressive texture, Hard case, Adjustable suction |
We've crowned Fleshlight's Go Surge - specifically, the model with the Pink Lady sleeve - as the overall best masturbator for those looking for something especially realistic. It's a compact stroker with a tight, heavily textured internal canal, and it's made from Fleshlight's patented SuperSkin material, making it feel super lifelike.
Fleshlight SuperSkin is a bit of a secret formula, meaning we don't know the exact makeup of the material, but it's thought to be a TPE blend. TPE strokers are often very realistic-feeling, but this specific blend has one of the most lifelike textures by far. It's also very soft to the touch, and nice and stretchy, making it a joy to use for all penis sizes and shapes. The vagina orifice also looks very accurate.
The inside of the Pink Lady sleeve consists of three chambers of aggressive texture: the first features angled nubs arranged in a lattice, the second features two layers of large internally angled cones and one layer of small cones, and the third is a repeat of the first chamber.
These textures feel interesting and provide lots of stimulation, making this masturbator great for stamina training.
As with most Fleshlights, the stroker is contained within a hard plastic case. This is part of the Go series, so the whole toy is a bit smaller with an overall length of 7 inches - 6.5 of which are usable. You can twist the cap on the end of the case to affect the internal vacuum, providing a sensation of suction. The sleeve is removable and easy to clean and once washed, air-dried, and sprinkled with renewing powder, you can store it away safe from dust and damage.
Results From Our Testers
- The sleeve feels extremely realistic and is very stimulating
- The external design looks lifelike too
- Internal texture is aggressive and varied - more interesting than a standard stroker
- The smaller form factor makes it nice and easy to hold and store away
- Hard case is very convenient for storage and travel

Better Than Expected. This device definitely was worth the value, versus other price points that I also had to trust this one served me well in my private adventures. Don't be afraid to give this a go! Its not for everyone, but if you are bored of using a hand or even lubing your hands. This is the right pick.

Kendra Lust Life Size Booty Stroker Mega Realistic Masturbator
Price: $ | Materials: TPE |
Product Type: Butt and vagina masturbator | Hands-Free: Yes |
Insertable Length: 6.5 inches | Width: 1+ inch |
Safety Features: Body-Safe materials | Features: Lower body design with anus and vagina, Life-Size, Two canals, Drainage hole for easy cleaning, Includes cock ring |
Our pick for the best realistic booty masturbator is this love doll accurately modeled after adult film star Kendra Lust's lower body. As such, it features both a lifelike butthole orifice and a vagina orifice, each with a different internal texture, and it's also life-sized which makes using it feel very real and immersive.
Now this is quite an expensive toy, but that can be explained by the level of realism on offer. Not only is it molded directly from Kendra Lust's body, but it's also made from Real Skin TPE, making it feel extremely lifelike. Furthermore, it's quite weighty, and even jiggles and moves during use in every way you'd expect. Using it is a very realistic experience, despite the fact that it's not a full-body doll.
As we already mentioned, this doll features a butthole and a vagina, both of which has a unique internal canal. These canals are quite heavily textured which adds a lot of stimulation, and both are pretty tight - though the butthole, as you might expect, is the tighter of the two.
They both feel great to use, and some water-based lube makes them feel even better.
Both the vagina and anal sex canals meet at the end and actually go all the way through to a drainage hole on the other end of the doll. This makes it fairly easy to clean despite its more complex design - you can just wash out the holes with soapy water and sex toy cleaner, and let everything air dry before storing it away.
You also get a cock and ball ring included with the doll, which can add a lot of pleasure. It's a bit of a random inclusion, but since it's an expensive toy, it's nice to get a little bit extra.
Results From Our Testers
- Looks extremely realistic, which makes sense since it was molded directly from Kendra Lust
- Feels very realistic too - the Real Skin TPE is lifelike and soft
- You get two unique holes and sleeves in one toy which is always fun - they feel quite similar though
- It jiggles and moves in all the ways you'd hope
- Comes with a cock and ball ring which is a nice bonus

Very good. It feels so good, very real, and amazing
DDallas W.
Honestly it feels absolutely fantastic. It has an amazing shape that combines well with the TPE and sheer density of the entire toy that makes it so soft, twerkable yet firm as hell. And i don't know what they did with the thighs but damn they feel good slapping against you, the vagina looks delicious, i find myself for the first time able to go down on a sex toy. The anus and vaginal holes both feel wonderful and look realistic as hell

Fleshlight Boost Blow Realistic Mouth Masturbator
Price: $ | Materials: Fleshlight SuperSkin, TPE |
Product Type: Mouth masturbator | Hands-Free: No |
Insertable Length: 8.5 inches | Width: 3/8 inches |
Safety Features: Latex-Free, Phthalate-Free, Non-Toxic, Waterproof | Features: Mouth design with teeth, tongue and uvula, Hard plastic case, Adjustable suction, |
The Fleshlight Boost Blow is what we consider to be the best realistic masturbator specifically designed to look like a mouth and feel like oral sex. It includes all of the most iconic features and materials you'd find in a vagina or anal Fleshlight, just with a hyperrealistic mouth and a unique canal that really feels like someone's throat.
This Fleshlight's external design is extremely lifelike - so much so that it might be a little uncanny for some. Anyone who favors a BJ, though, will agree that it ticks every box with its lips, tongue, teeth, and the addition of a uvula just inside the entrance. As it's a mouth, you can also use it for anything else you might use someone's mouth for, such as kissing.
Once again, the Fleshlight SuperSkin material this stroker is made from feels super soft and lifelike - it's one of our favorite materials for masturbators. We mentioned this already, but the internal canal features numerous chambers designed to feel like someone's throat, with soft round structures near the entrance that turn into tighter, harder shapes the deeper you go to give that deepthroat sensation.
The suction sensation you get from twisting the cap on the end of the hard case works very well with the mouth design - suction and BJs go hand-in-hand.
As always the hard case is great for storage and travel and is comfortable to hold on to during use. The sleeve being removable helps a lot with cleaning - just remember to let it air dry once cleaned, and to sprinkle in some renewing powder so it doesn't get sticky.
Results From Our Testers
- The design is very detailed and went beyond our expectations with its anatomy
- SuperSkin material feels fantastic and very lifelike
- The internal canal feels like a mouth and throat and even features a deep throat section
- The adjustable suction works really well here
- Some may find the realistic mouth design a little odd - it would be nice if the lips, tongue, and teeth weren't just skin color
Pros and Cons
Fuck Me Silly 2 Doll Mega Realistic Masturbator by Pipedream Extreme Toyz
Price: $ | Materials: TPE |
Product Type: Torso love doll | Hands-Free: Yes |
Insertable Length: 7 inches | Width: 1+inch |
Safety Features: Body-Safe materials | Features: Torso design, Vagina and anus orifices, Large boobs, Tight and stretchy canals, Firm inner core |
The Fuck Me Silly Doll 2 by Pipedream is a life-sized love doll modeled to be a perfect replica of a woman's torso and lower body. Every feature, including the large boobs, toned stomach, shaved vagina, and anus are extremely realistic, and since it's not a full-body doll it's actually on the cheaper side. This doll is firm, weighty, and very satisfying to use.
You have two options for penetration - the vagina and the butthole - and you can also slide your member between the boobs for an additional third method of stimulation.
The internal canal feels tight and stimulating, and though obviously the boobs don't give you much texture, their softness feels great to move in and out of.
This doll is made entirely from Pipedream's FantaFlesh TPE, which is why it feels so lifelike. The realistic texture combined with the design makes this doll feel super real, and its weight gives it a lot of presence. The back of the doll is quite flat which allows you to lay it down and use it hands-free - a very enjoyable experience as you can use your hands for squeezing and jiggling as you see fit.
Though it's so large and has quite a complex design, it's pretty easy to clean this love doll thanks to how both the internal canals connect and flow through to a drainage hole on the back of the doll. Thanks to this design, you can wash out the inside with soapy water and sex toy cleaner, and wipe down the outside.
Results From Our Testers
- The FantaFlesh material makes it feel very lifelike
- The firmness and weight of the toy means it feels immersive to use
- The visual design is very detailed and looks great
- It stays in place thanks to its weight, meaning you can use it hands-free
- Some may prefer a full human-body doll as opposed to a limbless one
Pros and Cons
Mistress Sasha Backdoor Mocha Sex Doll Butt
Price: $ | Materials: TPE |
Product Type: Butt masturbator | Hands-Free: Yes |
Insertable Length: 5+inches | Width: 1+inches |
Safety Features: Phthalate-Free, Latex-Free | Features: Dark skin, Butt design, Lifesize, Two orifices, Textured canal, Drainage hole for easy cleaning, Vibrator |
Most love dolls and masturbators claim to be realistic but only come in lighter shades - this is a shame as there are lots of guys out there who would prefer a model with dark skin. If that's you, we'd recommend the Mistress Sasha Backdoor Mocha butt masturbator - its dark skin tone is very lifelike, and the toy features a vibrating egg for even more stimulation.
This butt doll is made entirely from BioSkin TPR - another premium TPE material that feels very realistic while remaining soft, stretchy, and comfortable to use. It also jiggles in the exact way you'd expect from a real person, which feels great when using it hands-free on a bed or table. It's actually very easy to use hands-free thanks to its flat back and weighted design.
There are two entrances here, as is common with these lower-body dolls; you've got both the vagina and the anus, both of which feature tight canals lined with nubs that enhance the pleasure.
The canals are open-ended, flowing through to a hole that allows for easy drainage of fluids and easy cleaning.
The addition of the insertable egg vibrator is a great bonus as it makes using the doll all the more pleasurable. It features 10 different settings that you can cycle through - these range from very light to fairly intense. While they do feel very good, they also take away from the realism a little - but if this bothers you, you don't have to turn it on.
Results From Our Testers
- Looks and feels very realistic both inside and out
- Both canals are tight and stimulating - but they are quite similar
- It's satisfyingly weighty and easy to use hands-free
- It jiggles like a real butt which is fun
- The vibrator is a pleasurable addition
Pros and Cons
Athletic Alicia Super Fit Tan Fantasy Sex & Love Doll
Price: $$$$$ | Materials: TPE |
Product Type: Lifesize love doll | Hands-Free: Yes |
Insertable Length: Vagina: 7 inches, Anus: 7 inches, Mouth: 6 inches | Width: 1+inch |
Safety Features: Latex-Free, Phthalate-Free | Features: Full-Body design, Mouth, Vagina, Anus orifices, Toned body, Large boobs, Posable, Includes wig, Sports bra, Underwear |
If you're in the market for a lifesize, full-body sex doll, Athletic Alicia here is the doll that we think will fulfill all of your needs. She's 5 ft 5 inches tall and features all the womanly details you'd hope for, all sculpted in extremely high, accurate detail. That hyper realistic detail is what led us to crown this doll as our best realistic full-body love doll.
This doll is designed to look like a girl who spends a lot of time in the gym, and that's reflected in her design. She has a thin, toned body but still maintains a butt and boobs that are large enough to jiggle during use. She's made entirely out of TPE, which helps add a lot of realism to her skin, and the inside of the numerous canals. She's also entirely posable, so you can use her in a wide range of positions.
Since it's a full-body doll, you have all the orifices that you'd find on a real woman - the vagina, anus, and mouth.
Each orifice feels slightly different to use, and they're all lined with ribs for extra pleasure. You can slide your member in between her boobs, butt cheeks, and thighs, so you have numerous other ways to get off.
Included with this doll is a brunette wig, sports bra, and underwear set, so you can dress her up as you please - this works well with the posable limbs. It's important that you clean out the orifices after use to help keep her fresh - some soapy water and antibacterial sex toy cleaner will do the trick. This is a very expensive doll, so maintenance is vital.
Results From Our Testers
- She's quite a sight to behold - very lifelike and immersive to use
- Lots of presence and feels very realistic to hold
- The posable limbs mean you can use it in many positions
- Lots of different ways to get off
- She might get too far into the uncanny valley for some
Pros and Cons
7 Inch Triple Density 3D Hyper Realistic Dildo with Swinging Balls
Price: $ |
Materials: TPE |
Product Type: Dildo | Hands-Free: Yes, With suction cup or harness |
Insertable Length: 5.98 inches | Width: 1.73 inches |
Safety Features: Latex-Free, Phthalate-Free, Body-Safe | Features: Hyper realistic design, Triple-Density design, Accurate sculpt, Suction cup, Harness compatible, Swinging balls |
Dildo technology, even for those without extra features, has gotten quite advanced in recent years - and we feel that the current peak is with this 7-inch 3D Triple Density dildo from Pipedream's King Cock range. Everything about it is incredibly lifelike, from its visual design and texture right down to the swinging balls at the base.
This impressive dildo features a soft yet firm outer layer of FantaFlesh wrapped around a stiff inner core - this design, along with the detailed skin texture, makes it one of the most realistic dildos we've ever felt. It's sculpted to include all the penis details you'd hope for, with plenty of veins and ridges to provide stimulation.
At the very bottom of the base, you'll find a suction cup which makes the dildo easy to use hands-free and also provides harness compatibility.
Just above the suction cup, though, you'll find the realistic floppy ballsack that swings and slaps as you thrust the dildo in and out. This is a small detail but it's a sensation you only ever really feel if you're doing it with a real guy, so it adds a lot.
6 inches of this TPE dildo are insertable, and it has a width of 1.73. Though this isn't the largest dildo in the world, it's a size that will be usable for beginners while still providing a lot of stimulation for advanced users and even experts. Make sure you use water-based lube during use, and once you're done, give it a wash with warm soapy water and antibacterial sex toy cleaner before letting it air dry.
Results From Our Testers
- Triple-density design is hyperrealistic in looks and texture
- Feels soft, firm, and erect like a real penis as opposed to being a stiff piece of rubber
- The swinging balls are fun and add to the immersion
- Easy to use hands-free and to hook up to a harness
- The penis details add physical stimulation
Pros and Cons
M for Men 3-Pack Self-Lubricating Vibrating Stroker Sleeve Kit
Price: $ | Materials: TPE |
Product type: Vagina, Anus, Mouth Strokers | Hands-Free: No |
Insertable Length: 5 inches, 5.25 inches, 5.25 inches | Width: 2.5 inches, 2.25 inches, 2.25 inches |
Safety Features: Phthalate-Free, Paraffin-Free, Latex-Free | Features: Set of 3 strokers, Mouth, Vagina, Anus designs, Ribbed internal canals, Insertable vibrator, Drainage hole for easy cleaning, Self-Lubricating |
Masturbator kits, such as this one by M for Men, are a great alternative to full-body love dolls, as they give you the same number of orifices, 3, for a much cheaper price. This kit features a mouth, vagina, and anus, all crafted from high-quality materials with a high level of details, and it includes a bullet vibrator - which is why this is our best realistic masturbator kit.
For the budget-friendly price, we were very impressed by this kit. Each masturbator is super detailed and made from the same TPE which feels lifelike on the outside and the inside. They also each feature an open-ended design with a drainage hole on the back which makes them much easier to clean than many strokers.
Each of the strokers is ribbed on the inside for extra physical pleasure.
They all feel slightly different, but it would've been nice to have some stronger variation. The insertable bullet vibrator adds a lot to the pleasure of using them - it has a single speed, and requires 1 triple-A battery to use, so bear that in mind.
These strokers also have a "self-lubricating" feature where you only need to add a small amount of water. This is quite interesting and fairly convenient, but it doesn't last long - up to 12 uses. You may notice it getting a little less lubricated before you get to that point, so don't be afraid to squeeze in some water-based lube.
Results From Our Testers
- You get a lot of detail and quality for the price here
- Each stroker feels good, but could've had stronger differences though
- The bullet vibrator adds a lot but only has one setting
- The self-lubricating feature is a unique
- Drainage holes are a great addition for strokers
Pros and Cons
Dick Rambone Dildo | 13.5 Inch Realistic Huge Anal Dildo
Price: $ | Materials: PVC |
Product Type: Oversized dildo | Hands-Free: Yes with suction cup or harness |
Insertable Length: 13.4 inches | Width: 2.35 |
Safety Features: Latex-Free, Phthalate-Free, Non-Toxic | Features: Massive size, Lifelike sculpt, Long and thick, Molded from Dick Rambone's penis, Suction cup, Harness compatible |
Our pick of the best realistic extreme anal sex toys is none other than the Dick Rambone dildo. It was molded directly from the famous porn star's enormous penis, resulting in a dildo with an insertable length of 13.4 inches and a width of 2.35 inches. This is a seriously huge dildo that's not for beginners - it'll probably even challenge those with experience.
13.4 inches of insertable length is no joke; it'll take you some time to be able to take the whole thing, but that gives you something to work up to. 2.35 inches of width is also pretty enormous - enough to give you a great stretch. Even if you're an expert, we'd recommend taking it slow with this one - it can be insanely pleasurable, but by rushing you might cause some damage.
This dildo is made from PVC which, while not the most realistic-feeling material for a dildo, is nice and soft.
The softness makes it more comfortable to use, which is very necessary for this massive toy, so we'll take it over a more lifelike but less comfy material. Every inch of it features accurate penis details right down to the balls - all of which provide lots of physical stimulation.
At the base of this dildo, you'll find a suction cup that can be used to fasten the toy to any smooth, flat surface for some hands-free fun. The cup also makes it compatible with o-rings and strap-on harnesses, so it can be used and enjoyed by absolutely everyone. Though it's massive, it's nice and simple, making it very easy to clean.
Results From Our Testers
- It's enormous so you have to take your time with it
- Super pleasurable and gives a great stretch
- Lots of stimulating dildo
- Suction cup and harness-compatibility work great
- It can be hard to use the whole thing

8 Inch Realistic X-Tension Silicone Penis Sleeve & Ball Strap
Price: $ | Materials: Silicone |
Product Type: Penis extension sleeve | Hands-Free: Yes |
Insertable Length: 6 inches | Width: Interior: 1 inch | Exterior: 2.4 inches |
Safety Features: Latex-Free, Phthalate-Free | Features: 8-inch total length, Thick, Lifelike sculpt, Ball strap for security, Adds at least 2 inches length and increases girth up to 66%, Easy to clean, Includes insert to fill it out |
Finally, we've decided that this 8-inch Fantasy X-Tensions Elite penis extension sleeve is the best realistic penis extension on the market right now. It's hyper-detailed, nice and large in both length and width and even features an insert that helps fill out the sleeve if you need to - this stops it from being too floppy.
There are 6 inches of space inside this 8-inch penis extension, two of which can be filled with the extender insert if necessary. There's 1-inch of width space too, though the extension is stretchy enough that you'll probably be able to fit inside even if you're a little thicker. It's made from soft silicone which adds comfort and realism, and the ball strap keeps it secure.
The extension itself looks great - it's super accurately sculpted, and all the lifelike penis details add physical stimulation which your partner will enjoy.
It feels empowering to wear and is also a great temporary solution for anyone suffering from erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, or even just performance anxiety.
As we've mentioned, the length of the extension totals 8 inches, and it has a width of 2.4 inches. This makes it quite extreme in the world of silicone dildos, so you'll have to remember to take it slow when using it with a partner. The width is the main thing - you'll need to use a good amount of water-based lube to help it slide on in comfortably.
Results From Our Testers
- It's easy to use and feels fantastic to do so
- If you have performance issues you'll love it
- Very accurate, lifelike design
- The included insert helps present it from flopping around or pinching your penis
- Works best if you can fill out the space

Nice. Tried this on a lady friend and she was gushing out everywhere. Did not take it easy on her one bit. I love seeing pussy get stretched especially when it's my own cock. Would love to see a dvp with 2 sleeves.

How to choose a realistic sex toy
These textures feel interesting and provide lots of stimulation, making this masturbator great for stamina training.1. Go for realistic materials and textures (not just looks)
Generally, TPEs (thermoplastic elastomers) are the most lifelike-feeling materials when used to create sex toys, so if you're desperate for realism, go for a toy made out of them. TPRs (thermoplastic rubbers) are also very realistic, as TPRs are a variety of TPE. However, not all TPEs are the same, with some being more realistic than others.
Fleshlight's patented SuperSkin material, thought to be a TPE blend, is probably the most realistic material on the market currently.
You can usually assume that a TPE or TPR will feel very realistic, but we'd recommend checking reviews to see what users are saying.
Silicone feels slightly less realistic than TPE, but it can often feel softer - this can add to the comfort of use. PVC also feels less realistic and less soft, but it tends to be cheaper. If you prefer a realistic design over a realistic texture, opt for a silicone or PVC toy.
2. Start by choosing toy types you're familiar with
Choosing a type of toy you have experience with is a good way to ensure you know you'll like what you get, and that you get your money's worth, especially if it's an expensive purchase. You can't return a used sex toy, so it pays to know what to expect once it arrives - you don't want to take a gamble and end up with a toy you don't like, only to be stuck with it.
Suppose you do want to mix things up a bit. In that case, we'd suggest going for a toy with a slight variation on something you're familiar with - a dildo with a slightly different size or shape, or a masturbator with a slightly different internal texture or design. There is a lot of room for variation between kinds of toys - it can be fun to see how different companies push the envelope.
We understand that it can be tempting to branch out and choose a brand-new toy you've never tried before. If you really want to do this, opt for a budget version of whatever you're after so you don't end up wasting too much money if you don't fall in love with it.
3. Consider extra features
Extra features are a good way to add some additional fun to a variety of toys you're already familiar with. One of the most common extra features is the ability to rotate - multiple toys on this list can vibrate, and it can add lots of stimulation to already pleasurable toys. Some toys also rotate, gyrate, thrust, or heat up - these are extra features you may find elsewhere, but all of them add to the pleasure.
Extra features can also include a toy being waterproof, having a hard plastic case, suction, having a dual or triple-density design, or being posable if it's a love doll.
All extra features will add to the price of a toy, but they all generally add to the experience in positive ways. Way up the price vs what you think you'll gain from the features included - it's often worth it.
4. Keep hygiene in mind
We're suckers for hygiene when it comes to sex toys, and you should be too. Obtaining a toy that's easy to clean and maintain, and is made from more hygienic materials, is the best way to avoid unpleasant smells, textures and/or infections.
It can be a pain to clean sex toys after use - it's often the last thing you feel like doing after you've blown your load. Unfortunately, though, it's a must - which is why it's important to get a toy that you don't mind cleaning after every use. If a toy is easy to clean, you'll be more likely to clean it, as it won't be a struggle.
Toys that are easier to clean are those that are waterproof, those with simple designs with fewer nooks and crannies, those that can be removed from any hard cases and turned inside out, and those with drainage holes that allow you to wash all the way through with soapy water and sex toy cleaner.
Some materials are also harder to clean than others. Porous materials have lots of spaces that can harbor nasty bacteria, so ideally you'll want to go for a non-porous material. Silicone is a non-porous soft material, so it's usually the most hygienic and easy to clean. TPE and PVC can vary in porosity, so you'll need to pay extra attention to cleaning them. Let sex toys air dry fully before putting them away.

5. Envision how you'll use it
Think of the situations you want to use your new toy in - specific situations in your sex life may require specific features to be present or absent. Do you want to use a toy for water play? Then you'll need a toy that's waterproof. Do you want to use it discreetly in your dorm or room? Then you'll need a toy that doesn't make too much noise.
You should also consider if you want to use your toy with or on your partner. You may need something that can be remote-controlled, something harness-compatible, or something with multiple orifices if you want to use your toy with someone else. Additionally, you'll need to take their preferences into account alongside your own, to get something that you'll both enjoy.
Best Realistic Sex Toys: Summary
Out of all the realistic sex toys available, these are the toys that we deem to be the best and most lifelike for anyone who really values realism and immersion. We've mentioned various different kinds of toys, but they all have that realism in common in both their visual design and the materials that they're made from - so we'd recommend any of them very highly.
Though they're all fantastic, what you really want is a toy that fits you perfectly - and as we've mentioned, there are various considerations to make to help you land on the right toy. Take your experience into account, and be sure to think about realism in terms of looks and texture. Choose a toy that you'll find easy to clean - this will ensure it stays soft and lifelike for as long as you need.
Side Note
This best of realistic sex toy list for men will be periodically updated as better products become available or products simply no longer perform as well. As with all best of lists, this will be a living document.
