How we choose products
Transparency matters — especially for intimate products. Here's exactly how our recommendations are made.
Our selection criteria
Every product we feature is evaluated against the same checklist:
- Body-safe materials. We prioritize non-porous, body-safe materials like medical-grade silicone, ABS plastic, and stainless steel, and we steer away from vaguely-described jelly/PVC.
- Verified customer feedback. We weight products by both their average rating and the volume of reviews — a 4.5★ from 40,000 buyers tells us far more than a 5★ from 12.
- Reputable sellers. We favor established brands and sellers with a track record, clear product information, and responsive support.
- Value, not just price. We look for the best quality at a fair price rather than simply the cheapest option.
- Fit for purpose. We consider who a product is genuinely right for — beginners, couples, specific needs — and say so plainly.
How we keep information accurate
Product details, pricing, and ratings are sourced from Amazon and refreshed regularly so what you see is current. Pricing and availability can still change between updates, so the live Amazon listing is always the final word — we link you straight to it.
Our independence
Sex Blueprint is reader-supported. As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases made through our links, at no extra cost to you. Commissions never influence our rankings or which products we include. A product earns its place through materials, ratings, and suitability — not commission rate. Read our full affiliate disclosure.
A note on expertise & safety
Our guides are researched and written to be practical and judgment-free. They are informational, not medical advice. For any health condition, pain, or specific concern, please consult a qualified healthcare professional. This site is intended for adults 18+.
