So I’ve been looking to get into some anal depth play to see how I like it. The obvious toy recommendation is of course a Square Peg Slink, but these are so expensive here with import and shipping.

Do you have any recommenation for a good first depth toy? I can fist myself, but I’ve never gone deeper than that.

    Cheapest option is Ali Express. They have many slink knockoffs. I found the ones that look most like a slink to be extremely soft and too thin about mid way along their length but I believe others have good success. Here is an example, but many sellers have them, you might get a better deal shopping around… https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005144038746.html

    Another example is this tentacle unit… https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004744579471.html I’ve heard that the texture on it helps move line around, bit it’s not as flexible at the one above. This can be a good or a bad thing… Too much flex can cause the toy to fold up on itself.

    I’ve heard that this bottle shaped toy can help with training or practicing opening the sigmoid bend up. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005162313107.html

    As for the materials these are made of, I think they might actually be made of some kind of silicone. I have some toys from Neotori that seem similar.

    That said I can’t be sure.

    There are PVC versions of some of those toys that I am certain are PVC. They look shiny and they don’t feel great. Stay away from them. The main giveaway is that they’re cheap.

    Other toys worth checking out, but possibly also on the expensive side…

    Sinnovator - Dagon

    Nothosaur - Abyss II

    Primal Hardware - Fathom

      Thank you! That’s a really thorough reply, especially as I haven’t really got any experience with depth.

      TBH I’m a bit wary of Aliexpress quality, I would really like high quality silicone.

      I love my neotori stuff, so I was hoping that there is a similar EU manufacturer making decent depth toys. I wouldn’t be opposed to the prices of Nothosaur, Squarepeg etc, but shipping and taxes on top just make them unreasonable.

        I know what you mean by shipping… Typical minimum shipping to Australia from the US is around $50… that’s minimum. Sometimes as much as $150… just for shipping.

        Neotori has been really good though, with them shipping is $50 maximum, and often $20 or so… Or even free over a certain order size.

        Neotori is the only non Ali Express shop I’ve bought from.

        I do spend quite a bit on Ali express in general.

        You do have to pick carefully, but overall is been great.

        Would love to see Neotori do depth toys, or any of my local Aussie shops. They seem almost exclusive to US makers which is kinda sad.

        Happy to be of help… been searching myself. I think there is a UK store I might have left out. When U think of it I’ll add another reply.
