Quick answer
The best thrusting dildo under $100 for most people is the Alaric, because it combines thrusting, vibration and heating with an IPX7 rating, a suction cup and a low listed noise figure. Beginners should look at the slimmer Casimir. If you want a longer stroke, the Wilson lists about 1.2 in of travel and the larger Brodie about 1.8 in. Most thrusting dildos at this price move less than an inch, so check listed thrust travel before anything else.

How we chose
This is a research-based guide. We haven’t handled these products. We shortlisted thrusting dildos listed under $100 when we checked the catalogue, all with silicone bodies, then compared what each listing publishes:
- Thrust travel: how far the shaft actually moves, where listed.
- Size: insertable length and diameter.
- Water rating and base (suction cup or not).
- Extras: heating, vibration, swing, remote range and listed noise.
All figures are manufacturer claims. We picked one dildo per size and use case.
Our picks

Strengths
- IPX7

Why we picked it
Size is the most common reason a first thrusting toy goes unused. This one is the most approachable.
3. Best mid-length stroke

A soft realistic dildo with thrusting, vibration and swing, and a longer listed stroke than entry models.

Why we picked it
It roughly doubles the stroke of most entry models while staying at a moderate size.

Which should you buy?
Choose this if…
The Alaric for most people; the Casimir if you're new to dildos; the Wilson or Brodie if you want a longer stroke.
Skip this if…
Thrusting dildos that don't list thrust travel. Without it, you can't tell how much movement you're paying for.
Spend more if…
- You want a longer stroke at a moderate size
- You want app control or a stronger motor
Save money if…
A non-motorised silicone dildo with a suction cup costs far less, and lets you control the movement yourself.
Not sure whether thrusting is worth it over vibration? Compare the two in thrusting vs vibrating dildos, and see thrust length explained for what the travel figures mean.
What to check before you buy
Thrust travel. The figure that decides how much movement you get. Under an inch is a short, pulsing movement; the longer-stroke picks here list 1.2–1.8 in.
Size. Diameter matters more than length for comfort. If you’re unsure, see soft vs firm dildos and how to choose your first sex toy.
Base. A suction cup lets you mount the dildo for hands-free use, and a wide base is essential for anal play.
Water rating. IPX7 means you can use it in the shower and rinse it freely; IPX5 means splash-resistant only.
Material. All picks here are listed as silicone, which is non-porous and easy to clean. Avoid jelly or PVC dildos. See toy materials explained.
Cleaning and care
Wash with warm water and mild, unscented soap after every use, keeping charging ports dry on IPX5 models. Use water-based lube; silicone lube can damage silicone toys. See how to clean your sex toys safely.

Frequently asked questions
How far does a thrusting dildo actually move?
Much less than many people expect. On the dildos we compared, listed thrust travel ranges from about 0.55 in to about 1.8 in. Under an inch is a short, pulsing movement rather than a long stroke. If you want a noticeable stroke, check the listing for a thrust or telescopic travel figure before buying.
Is a thrusting dildo good for beginners?
It can be, if you choose a modest size. Look for a diameter around 1.4 in or less and an insertable length around 5–6 in, start on the lowest speed, and use plenty of water-based lube. The Casimir is the slimmest pick on this list.
Can I use a thrusting dildo for anal play?
Only if it has a wide, flared base or suction cup that can't slip inside, and you start smaller than you would vaginally. Most picks here have a suction cup base, but check each listing. Use plenty of water-based lube and go slowly.
Are thrusting dildos loud?
Louder than plain vibrators, because the motor moves the shaft. Listings here quote under 50 dB or under 60 dB, but those are manufacturer figures. Using the remote from a distance, or under a blanket, helps more than the number on the box.
Do suction cups work on any surface?
No. They need a smooth, flat, non-porous surface like tile, glass or a sealed table, and they hold better when both the cup and the surface are clean and slightly damp. They won't hold on fabric, wood grain or textured walls.
