You may not be surprised to hear that one of the most common questions we get asked is what it's really like to have sex with a sex doll. Sure, you've probably read that you're bound to have exciting orgasms and are guaranteed complete freedom to fulfil every wacky fantasy or desire you've ever had - exactly the way you imagine it, when you want it - but there are also more practical considerations.

How does it feel? is another popular question. How does having sex with a sex doll feel physically different from having sex with a human partner? There are other aspects to having sex with a doll, such as how to get started, how to place the doll and prepare the toy to ensure you have the hottest, most enjoyable experience possible.

Before we delve into the ultimate guide to having the best sex with your new sex doll, remember that your doll is designed entirely for your pleasure. You've taken the time to research the sex doll of your dreams, you've taken care to customise your doll to suit your tastes and turn on, so do what feels good to you. Just because one enjoys having sex with a sex doll in one way doesn't mean it will rock your world to the same extent, so it's always worth taking the time to experiment and discover what you like best. After all, that's half the fun!

In the mood for sex with sex dolls

As we've just described, sex is a very personal thing and your own preferences are paramount. Some people like to set the scene and pull out the foreplay to increase their arousal, while others prefer quick, intense, instant gratification.

The formula for finding the best way to have sex with a sex doll comes down to your own preferences and preference. If you are looking for companionship for your doll, you may enjoy the process of dressing your doll, picking out music and taking time to enjoy the pre-sex rituals.

If your interest lies more in the freedom to fulfil your wildest fantasies with the best masturbation aid ever, then delayed gratification may not work for you. The beauty of having sex with a sex doll is that the experience can be whatever you want it to be.

That is, we can share some tips (ok, a lot!) ) to help you get the most out of your doll for toe curling fun, whether you're popping the cherry and having sex with a doll for the first time or just looking for some new tips and tricks to keep the sensations fresh and exciting.

Here are our key tips.

Warm up your doll beforehand
When it comes to having the best sex with your new sex doll, a little preparation is key. All of our sex dolls are made from the highest quality materials so the doll feels good to the touch, but you can warm up your doll even further by slightly warming it up before use so that he or she feels warm when play begins. One way to do this without damaging the doll is to place him or her under a heated electric blanket for 10 to 20 minutes. This means that when you start inserting your doll (or having your doll inserted into you), you won't be slipping in something cold and unwelcome. A little heat will bring your doll to life and give it a warm, realistic feel no matter what you want.

Make sure your doll is clean
There's nothing sexy about leaving good hygiene behind, so make sure your doll is clean and tidy before you start. This can be done easily and quickly. Your doll usually comes with three penetration options, each with a removable sleeve. Whether you want oral, anal or vaginal sex, simply remove the penetration sleeve and clean it with a water-based toy cleaner. The sleeves are made from a special silicone material so they feel like the real thing when used, completely out of this world. After a quick clean, simply re-insert and everything is ready for sex with your sex doll.

Have some lubricant on hand
A little bit of lubricant can change the feel of sex with your doll. Coupled with the pre-warming we mentioned in tip one, you may start to imagine how incredible your doll's warm, moist and smooth opening will be ...... Just make sure you choose a water-based lubricant to ensure that the silicone or TPE material is not damaged. Oil or silicone-based lubricants should be avoided as they can damage the surface of your sex doll or removable sleeve, which may mean you need to purchase a replacement.

Although there are too many benefits possible, so instead of using more and more lubricant as you train, try adding a little water to take the lubricant already inserted into the sleeve a little further.

Placing your doll correctly
Many of our dolls can be placed standing up, but you need to give a little thought to exactly how and where you place your doll. This ensures you avoid any accidental damage to your doll, but is also a way to get your doll into the correct position for sex, so you don't have to stop halfway through to rearrange it.

Many people prefer to place their dolls on a bed or flat surface the first few times, but once you are used to having sex with your sex doll, you can be more creative and experimental with other surfaces such as a dining chair or table. For example, a female doll sitting in a chair or on a bed might be the perfect height for oral sex. And if you have a male doll and want full control over the depth and angle, standing the doll up will allow you to enjoy many potential positions. Remember that although your doll will have a sturdy metal skeleton, it's not as strong as a human bone, so try to choose positions that won't put your full weight on the doll.

You can also put your doll in the bath or stand in the shower if you want to mix things up.

Pick an outfit
Clothes can be incredibly erotic and bring fantasy to life, so take the time to dress your doll in something you find fun. Whether it's a cheerleader uniform, a stewardess uniform, a bikini or sexy lingerie, dressing up your doll can help you fulfil your every fantasy and wish.

Don't forget that you can also add accessories to your doll as well as part of the dressing up process. If bondage is making you hot under the collar, add some handcuffs, cuffs, collars and leads or harnesses. The beauty of dressing up your doll is that he or she won't say no, it's all about you and your pleasure.

Getting into the right headspace
Sex with a sex doll can be fast and frantic or long and slow - it's up to you. But just as powerful as you are with a human partner, taking some time to get into the right headspace and mood can seriously up the ante. How you get into the right headspace is a completely personal thing for you, and what works for one person won't work for another, but some of the processes we've outlined here may well form part of it.

For example, dressing your doll, choosing the right clothes and taking the time to appreciate how hot your doll looks can take you from relaxed to excited.

Similarly, scents can evoke memories, so if there is a particular scent that drives you crazy, apply perfume or cologne to your doll. Be careful to only spray on the clothes, not the doll, to avoid damaging the ultra-realistic silicone material.

As part of your workout, you may want to play music, watch pornography or read erotic literature. Try different methods to see what works best when it comes to foreplay to ensure you create a sizzling, long-lasting experience that satisfies your every fantasy.

Storage and maintenance
Storage and maintenance are an important part of making sure your doll stays in tip-top shape and is ready for any demand. Try not to store your dolls while wearing tight-fitting clothing or accessories. Remove these so they don't mark or distort the shape of the doll, and always clean them after use.
