Why I Chose It

I have chosen the Doc Johnson All American Girl Masturbator as the top pick in this review for its excellent value for money. If you’re on a budget but don’t want to compromise on quality, realism, or pleasure, this is my go-to recommendation. As James, our tester, noted, “I was pleasantly surprised that a masturbator at this price ($29.99) could work so well.”

In my experience, quality masturbators often come with an outer casing, but this one defies that norm. “Although no plastic case comes with this masturbator, it felt firm enough in my hand, giving me reason to believe that it would work well without any kind of supportive case.”

“For the price, this masturbator was of great quality and was molded from a porn actress–something I’ve only seen in more expensive toys.” The super realistic vulva sets this product apart from other affordable male masturbators.

The interior canal is straightforward. “The interior canal was not overly special in any way; the canal was straight (without any dips or valleys) and comprised of a small uniform bump texture.” This simple texture might not appeal to those seeking intense sensations, but James found the overall experience surprisingly satisfying.

Regarding cleaning and maintenance, I am thoroughly impressed with the design. “This masturbator is open-ended, and the hole at the end is wide enough so that it is quite simple to run water through it while getting to every part of the canal with soap.” Closed masturbators can be challenging to clean, so this is a significant advantage. Additionally, the included renewal powder helps maintain the skin-like feeling between uses.

  • Soft and stretchy silicone stroker
  • Reversible design with different textures on each side
  • Comes with a storage case.

Specifications

Pros

  • Incredibly travel-friendly since it's so compact and discreet
  • Reversible design offers variety in sensation
  • Reusable
  • Can be fully sterilized

Cons

  • Not as intense or heavy-duty as an actual Fleshlight
  • No added vibrations or suction

Why I Chose It

The Arcwave Ghost is by far THE cheapest option in this review. As a sex toy expert who hasn’t even personally tested this product, I’m a huge fan already. Most stretchy and flexible strokers like this are often made of porous TPE and not very durable. Some are also only made as disposable items (like TENGA Eggs). Enter, the Arcwave Ghost! This stretchy little fella is made of soft and flexible silicone, which makes it 100% body-safe and easy to clean and sterilize. The non-porous nature also makes it a lot more durable and long-lasting compared to any TPE product.

Of course, you shouldn’t just take my word for it. Let’s hear what our tester, Nicolae, had to say about it! “I would give the Arcwave Ghost stroker a solid 5/5 stars. It really did its job in pleasuring me as it has a strong sensation on both of it’s surfaces.” The elasticity of the material amazed him as it always went back to its original shape even after lots of tearing and pulling.

As far the design goes, I absolutely love the reversible feature giving you two different sensations to choose from. It’s also pretty small and simple, and “it doesn’t do much but at the same time it does enough”. Nicolae also found “the intense surface with nodules to be more exciting for a quick release”, and the smoother part with grooves ideal for a longer experience.

Another great pro is the small storage case it comes in. This also makes it super easy to take with you on the go. There are a few ventilation holes in the case itself helping to keep the stroker dry and clean during storage.

  • Six-pack of masturbations eggs from TENGA
  • Each egg offers different textures
  • Each eggs coms with a small packet of lube
  • Disposable design.

Specifications

Pros

  • Very travel-friendly
  • Inexpensive was to explore a variety of textures
  • Clever design
  • Super discreet

Cons

  • Single-use items
  • No realistic features

Why I Chose It

The TENGA Egg New Standard Pack offers a variety of masturbation options, each egg featuring its own unique pattern and texture. Although not the cheapest option as a complete pack, it is a relatively affordable way to explore different sensations. While they’re single-use, you’ll get six different experiences to enjoy!

Just like our tester, Jason, I’m a fan of the packaging, designed like a regular egg carton. He highlighted how much he appreciates “the portability and discreetness of those eggs. The simplicity and variety of the different patterns and shapes. The low cost and easy clean-up. It just all works.”

“They are definitely weird at first — the incredibly stretchy nature of the eggs takes some getting used to and the idea of them being one-time-use definitely doesn’t sit well with me.” The disposable nature of these eggs is a drawback, and I wouldn’t recommend them as a regular substitute for a reusable masturbator. However, for first-timers exploring different types of stimulation, they’re ideal.

Since you mainly use your own hand to stroke the squishy material, you can control the pressure and tightness, making them an unintimidating step up from a hand job. Having tried many TENGA eggs myself (though not on myself), I can confirm they are delightful to use with a partner as well!

  • Functional hard case for easy storage and easy drying

Why I Chose It

I wanted to include the TENGA Spinner Tetra because it’s a great quality stroker that offers a cheeky extra feature that adds to the overall sensation. Oh, and it’s pretty reasonably priced as well!

Our tester, A.J., didn’t find this cheap fleshlight to be super intense “but that doesn’t mean it isn’t pleasurable — the suction is outstanding and only improves the experience that the spinning gives.” The self-spinning construction is super innovative, in my opinion. The internal coils twists the stroker as you insert your penis. I think it’s a great way to add more sensation to a toy without having to included electrical components.

A.J. needed to do some research to figure out how exactly to get the most sensation out if this stroker. Once it’s lubed up, it should be squeezed to release as much air as possible before insertion. This helps improve the suction as well as the spinning feature. “The moment I got this all right it turned from a good to toy to an excellent toy, it delivers in a multitude of ways for an unbeatable price.”

“The included case and drying capabilities of said case are a great addition, especially for the price.” As far as variety goes, there are actually 6 Tenga Spinners in total, each one which a different color, tightness, and texture.

  • Fleshlight brand stroker
  • Open-ended design
  • Two different realistic orifices to choose from.

Specifications

Pros

  • Open-ended design makes it super easy to clean and dry
  • Variety in visual stimulation
  • Discreet and lightweight
  • Great for couples play

Cons

  • Too tight for those with a very girthy penis
  • Doesn't deliver stimulation to the whole shaft at once

Why I Chose It

If you’re looking to try a budget-friendly item from the actual Fleshlight brand, I recommend the Fleshlight Quickshot Stamina Training Unit. It’s not a full-sized version but offers a lot of versatility due to its compact size.

First of all, the double-ended design lets you enjoy two different orifices depending on your mood. You get to enjoy a realistic vulva or a realistic anal orifice. The open design makes it ideal for partnered sex and oral play, since you can easily have a partner stimulate the tip while the shaft is enjoying the texture. I think this makes it stand out compared to most other cheap fleshlights in this review.

The internal texture, known as the Stamina Training texture, is an oldie but a goodie. It’s simple yet impressive. From my experience, this texture is great for beginners to explore but may leave seasoned users wanting more variation.

Our tester, Anthony, didn’t find any major drawbacks with this toy but noted an important factor regarding the tight internal diameter: “The drawbacks are far heavier for those who are well-endowed, particularly those who have a larger-than-average girth.”

For those with an average-sized penises (and longer-than-average penises), this masturbator should be easy and satisfying to use. Anthony concludes his review by stating, “I truly believe the Fleshlight Quickshot Stamina Training Unit is a cheap yet well-made toy that provides satisfying and stimulating orgasms.”

  • Non-anatomical stroker from Fleshlight
  • Clear design for a full view
  • Open-ended structure.

Specifications

Pros

  • Tight internal diameter feels great
  • Clear design lets you watch the action
  • Great to use with a partner during oral sex
  • Very travel-friendly and easy to clean

Cons

  • The clear TPE sleeve gets sticky easily
  • Needs a lot of lube
  • Might be too tight for some

Why I Chose It

Last but certainly not least is the Fleshlight Quickshot Turbo. This another open-ended stroker from Fleshlight that is extremely similar to the Fleshlight Quickshot STU. The main difference is that this one has a clear blue design, non-anatomical orifices, and has an internal texture that’s designed to feel similar to a blowjob.

Our tester, Matt, had an overall great experience with it but “the truth is that it doesn’t really simulate oral. You can’t get the same level of suction from an open-ended stroker, and the sleeve just doesn’t feel the same as an actual mouth.” That said, the internal texture features some ‘suspended rings’ that are supposed to create a sucking and gripping sensation. “I think that’s partly true, as you can really feel the first ring when you first enter, and the sleeve hugs the shaft at the base in a way I love.”

One of the main benefits of the Quickshot Turbo is how great it is to use with a partner. The see-through design is a real treat for both the user and their partner, since you can see exactly what’s going on inside. For Matt, using it for oral “meant that my whole shaft was enveloped by the stroker while she provided extra stimulation on the tip. Compared to just using a hand on the shaft, this was way more stimulating.”

Now, even though it doesn’t actually offer real suction, Matt did experiment with keeping one of the end caps on while he used it. This “made the suction way more intense, just like a regular Fleshlight, though the stroke length was shorter, of course.”

Cheap Fleshlight VS Regular Fleshlight

When it comes to looking at the differences between cheap and regular fleshlights, you’ll find that there’s not all that much that separates them.

Okay, the materials might not be of the most premium quality…but they still feel pretty great and do the job just as well as a regular fleshlight.

But it is because the materials in the cheap fleshlights are of a lower quality (that’s NOT to say bad quality) that they can price them so affordably.

Okay, they might not last as long and possibly won’t take repeated poundings night after night after night, but for the price you really can’t go wrong with a cheap fleshlight!

 

 

Buyer's Guide: What to Look For in a Cheap Fleshlight

So if I’ve convinced you to purchase your very own cheap fleshlight with this review, let me send you off with a few more pointers on what to consider when buying a cheap fleshlight. Knowing what things to look for will help you get the most out of whichever product you end up matcing with!

Things to Consider

When buying a cheap fleshlight there are a few things you want to think about, and several key features you might want to take note of before you make a purchase.

Let’s take a look at some of the most important things you need to consider!

  • Orifice – Fleshlights come with orifices of all shapes and sizes. Yes – even the cheap ones! Whether it’s a stunning vagina, a tight butt, a luscious mouth fleshlight, or even just a neutral hole, you have plenty of options to choose from!
  • Size – Obviously you want a cheap fleshlight to fit you properly, that’s why you have to be sure you get one in your size. Measure the length and girth of your cock and find a fleshlight with the appropriate length and diameter. Too big and you won’t get much sensation, too small and it won’t fit properly!
  • Open-ended vs Closed – Fleshlights often come in two forms: open-ended, where your cock is able to protrude through the end, but you can get the toy all the way down to the base, and closed, where there is a set depth. You have to make a choice as to what kind of stimulation you want. For a deeper sensation go with open-ended, and for a more encompassing and realistic sensation go with closed.
  • Realistic vs Non-realistic – When it comes to fleshlights they can fall into one of two categories: realistic and non-realistic. Realistic aims to replicate the real-life sensations you’d expect from a real-life vagina, butt or mouth. Non-realistic are just highly textured and aim for maximum stimulation while forgoing realism.
  • Texture – What kind of texture you want in your cheap fleshlight is a subjective thing. You might want a highly textured toy filled with ridges and nodules, but then again you might prefer more subtle and calmer textures. It all depends on what you feel most comfortable with and what kind of masturbation sessions you like!

Materials

As I’ve written at the beginning of the post, cheap Fleshlights or masturbators are often made of super soft and squishy materials like SuperSkin or TPE. These materials do provide great squishiness and stretch quite well but they are porous and more difficult to keep clean. Silicone is body-safe and non-porous and more of a safe bet in terms of hygeine. Consider what feel of material you’re looking for and how much energy you’re willing to spend on keeping your product clean!

What Material Should I Choose?

Let’s look at some of the materials used in cheap fleshlights. Whereas you might expect silicone in more regular or premium fleshlights, the cheaper versions avoid it to keep the costs down. So what do they use? Here are a few options!

  • TPE – Also known as ThermoPlastic elastomers, TPE is a life-like feeling material that has many similar qualities to silicone. It is easy to warm up and will hold the heat nicely to provide a realistic kind of stimulation
  • SuperSkin – Light in weight and realistic in both looks and feel, SuperSkin could easily convince you that you’re having fun with the real thing. Very similar to TPE, it does have a bit of an artificial odor to it, which isn’t the most erotic thing ever!
  • Soft plastic – Now if we’re talking about materials that are cheap and easy to make soft toys out of, then soft plastic is the king. It feels pretty amazing – not like you might imagine plastic to feel! Instead, it can feel warm, soft, and comfortable around your cock. It will need some upkeep to keep things fresh and clean, but it’s a great option.

Just a little warning about all the materials we just mentioned: they are all porous which means they can harbor bacteria and other nasty surprises. In order to get around this issue, toys made from TPE, SuperSkin or soft plastic need to be thoroughly cleaned and dried completely carefully. Doing so will help them last longer.

This may or may not go without saying, but you should consider the dimensions of the products you’re thinking of buying.

I don’t know how much of an extreme thruster you are or whether or not you respond well to super firm strokes, but it may be relevant to consider how well your next purchase will survive your particular wya o masturbating.

Do you need a flexible and stetchy Tenga egg for more gentle strokes or perhaps a double-ended fleshlight or a masturbation cup for more sturdy strokes?
