Design and materials
This dildo measures 21.5 cm in total length, with an insertable length of 16.5 cm, making it a proportionate choice for many users. The diameter is 3.8 cm with a circumference of 12 cm—a moderate size that sits comfortably in the middle range. It's crafted from TPE (thermoplastic elastomer), a soft, flexible material that mimics a realistic feel. The realistic design includes textured balls at the base, adding visual and tactile interest. The suction cup base is a practical feature that allows hands-free positioning on smooth, non-porous surfaces such as tiles or glass, offering versatility in how and where you use it.
What it's like to use
As a manual product requiring no batteries or power, the Loving Joy dildo puts you entirely in control of speed, depth and rhythm. The suction cup base means you can secure it to a suitable surface and use it hands-free, or simply hold it for more direct control. The insertable length of 16.5 cm is manageable for most users, and the moderate diameter provides a realistic profile without being extreme. The TPE material offers a soft, skin-like texture that responds to body temperature.
Cleaning and care
TPE is a porous material, so thorough cleaning is important. Wash the dildo with warm water and mild soap after each use, paying attention to the suction cup base and textured areas. Because TPE is porous, it cannot be sterilised in boiling water or autoclaved. Allow it to air-dry completely before storage. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and keep it separate from other TPE toys to prevent material degradation from contact with certain substances.
Buy it if
You prefer a manual dildo with no need for charging or batteries, appreciate realistic design details, want a product with a suction cup base for hands-free options, or are looking for a moderately sized option that's easy to store and use discreetly.
Skip it if
You prefer vibrating toys, need something that can be boiled for deep cleaning, or have concerns about using porous materials. If you're sensitive to TPE, or prefer non-realistic designs, this may not be the right fit.
The bottom line
The Loving Joy 8 Inch Dildo with Balls Black is a reliable, straightforward manual option for anyone wanting a realistic dildo with added functionality via its suction cup base. It's affordable, requires no batteries, and delivers uncomplicated performance. If you're after simplicity and practicality without frills, this is a solid choice.
Frequently asked questions
Can the suction cup base be used on all surfaces?
The suction cup works best on smooth, non-porous surfaces such as tile, glass, or laminate. It won't adhere reliably to textured, porous or curved surfaces like fabric or standard mattresses.
Is TPE safe to use?
TPE is generally considered body-safe when used as directed. However, because it's porous, it cannot be fully sterilised, so it's best used with one partner or stored away from other toys to prevent cross-contamination.
How long will this product last?
With proper cleaning and storage, TPE products can last a reasonable time, though they may gradually soften or develop minor surface wear over extended use. Avoiding extreme heat, sunlight and contact with harsh chemicals will help extend its lifespan.
Is this suitable for beginners?
Yes. The moderate size, lack of intimidating features, and manual operation make it accessible for those new to dildos, with full control over intensity and speed.
Can it be used with lubricant?
Yes, lubricant can enhance comfort and ease of use. Ensure you use a lubricant compatible with TPE; water-based lubricants are a safe choice.
