Knowing how to select the best sex sofa requires some basic knowledge about what they are and aren\u2019t. Sure, that La-Z-Boy in your living room can suffice in a pinch but your friends and family have to sit on that thing the next time they come over. Make everyone feel more comfortable about being your guest. Only have sex or masturbate on specially made pieces of furniture that you can tuck under the bed when you\u2019re done. <\/span><\/p>\n A sex couch is a relatively simple contraption made to support the weight(s) of you and\/or your partner(s) during intercourse, foreplay or roleplaying games. They\u2019re made from a wide variety of materials, feature various shapes and come in a range of sizes. Some are rigid, some are flexible and many are extremely versatile in what they can do when used right. However, the one thing they all have in common is that they can promote healthier, more satisfying sessions whether those sessions be by yourself or with a lover. <\/span><\/p>\n In general, the most popular contemporary models are found in the following seven basic forms: <\/span><\/p>\n Keep in mind that sex slings and swings are not considered sex seats in any way, even if they feature a spot for your bum. Legit chaises, chairs and cushions for the pushin\u2019 don\u2019t ever get suspended from the doorway and they\u2019re always made to support the weight of both partners simultaneously. \u201cAnything less than the best is a felony.\u201d \u2013 The Prophet Vanilla Ice. <\/span><\/p>\n Similar to that hit song of the \u201890s, there\u2019s some good and bad to consider. The pros and cons associated with buying and\/or owning a new piece of erotica furniture are real, unlike Vanilla Ice\u2019s musical talent. Here are the main things you can expect to gain (and lose) when you enter the big leagues of bumpin\u2019 uglies: <\/span><\/p>\n PROS:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n Remind your partner why they fell in love or lust with you in the first place by pulling out all the stops and letting your inhibitions fly out the window. <\/span><\/p>\n Stop refusing to try things because you\u2019re afraid of getting hurt, especially when you have a thick, durable piece of furniture holding both your bodies in place. <\/span><\/p>\n Never become a statistic by showing up at your local emergency room as one of the 2.2 million reported cases of sex-related boo-boos. <\/span><\/p>\n Keep your torture chamber looking fly while increasing its functionality with a piece (or two) of some high-quality erotica seating made by a company that understands your sexual desires. <\/span><\/p>\n Easily include much of this stuff into your existing sex life (and your home d\u00e9cor too) by selecting an option that requires little to no assembly or explanation. <\/span><\/p>\n CONS:<\/strong> <\/span><\/p>\n Get your credit cards ready because the best options out there can cost a pretty penny and probably shouldn\u2019t be doubled as regular seating. <\/span><\/p>\n Don\u2019t pick the wrong design because it could make or break the lock on your secret garden, letting everyone within eyesight know that you\u2019re a damn dirty freak. <\/span><\/p>\n Brush up on your housekeeping skills because some of these things require specialty procedures to get them thoroughly clean and sanitized, especially if you use lube of any kind. <\/span><\/p>\n Feeling confident about what you\u2019re getting yourself into here? Good, because now comes the hard part \u2013 putting it all together to start locating that perfect product. It\u2019s out there; believe me. You just don\u2019t know how to find it yet. <\/span><\/p>\n Well-made products like this tend to outlast the hastily slapped together knock-offs that plague today\u2019s adult industry but being able to tell the difference between the two can be hard when you don\u2019t know what to look for. Advertisements are carefully stitched together for maximum appeal, marketing dollars are freely spent to launch attractive campaigns, and your hard-earned money is ripped from your hands in the process. <\/span><\/p>\n So instead of letting someone else\u2019s opinion or agenda sway your purchasing decisions, why not take the appropriate steps to determine those things for yourself? Since self-pleasure is such a subjective artform, selecting the best sex sofa should always be anchored by you and\/or your partner\u2019s unique tastes, not by the bottom lines of the manufacturers who sell them. Cut through the hype by looking at or considering the following 7 things about every model you\u2019re interested in: <\/span><\/p>\n Always, I repeat, always pay close attention to size when shopping for something in the adult industry. The overall appearance of a product can be initially alluring, but its dimensions usually play a much bigger role in how much pleasure you derive from it, how safe it is to use and how discreet storage can be when you\u2019re done. Check the height, width, depth and heaviness to get a better understanding of what\u2019s in your shopping cart. Be sure to find out if there\u2019s a user weight limit listed by the manufacturer, and always choose sex furniture that\u2019s rated for at least 30 lbs. above you\/your partner\u2019s total mass. <\/span><\/p>\n Today\u2019s top options come in several different shapes, from home d\u00e9cor structures that resemble everyday furniture to curvy, artistic pieces that look like functional art. And while the form is most important when discretion is an absolute must, versatile shapes are more useful for obvious reasons. Check to see whether the overall shape is conducive with the kinds of sex acts you have in mind. Can the sofa change its shape in any way or is it a \u201cWhat You See Is What You Get\u201d type of product? Will that form work for you or do you think you\u2019ll need something else?<\/span><\/p>\n Finding an extremely versatile sex couch isn\u2019t hard, especially not these days. In fact, most of them are designed explicitly to support as many positions and practices as humanly possible. However, some of the more rigid, less versatile designs are made for one or two specific purposes only, like BDSM or anal play. Determining whether any product in your shopping cart offers the versatility you need is simply a matter of knowing yourself better than the manufacturers do. If all else fails, buy more than one version and have the proper tools on deck no matter what predicament you find yourself in. <\/span><\/p>\n As with all pieces of furniture, the upholstery is a crucial component that demonstrates the quality, durability, craftsmanship and appearance thereof. Erotica sofas are no exception, as the totality of their features is often overshadowed by the fabrics and materials used. For example, a heavy-duty couch with an ugly or difficult to clean exterior may not be as appealing as a less robust piece that has soft, washable materials covering it. On the other hand, some people prefer certain fabrics to others, meaning this is a consideration you simply can\u2019t ignore. <\/span><\/p>\n FACT:<\/strong> Some of today\u2019s best products are still made or covered with materials that contain potential allergens and\/or skin irritants (latex, parabens, phthalates, etc.). Furthermore, certain types of personal lubricant cannot or should not be used on all fabrics, as they can permanently stain or damage the material. Study a lube buyer\u2019s guide for more information. <\/span><\/p>\n Just like on Thanksgiving, the quality of the stuffing can make or break the occasion. And while we\u2019re obviously talking about erotica furniture instead of turkeys here, the same rule still applies: It\u2019s what\u2019s on the inside that counts. Stuffing thickness is vital, especially when it comes to using items that are made to withstand the slams of sex. That super soft sofa in your den may serve its purpose on game day, but you\u2019ll probably want something a little more durable for the dirty deeds you do. The difference between a regular couch and a sex couch is usually the stuffing \u2013 a component that\u2019s often comprised of a high-density foam or similar material. <\/span><\/p>\n Today\u2019s manufacturers are always trying to come up with the next best thing. Meanwhile, consumers are constantly begging for more convenient features. The compromise has been made in the form of adding things like removeable covers, foldable appendages, and wipe-clean materials such as nylon, leather and polyester to the design. Contemporary models are now more user-friendly than ever, but there are still a few stragglers keeping it old school. Depending on the details of your lifestyle and your ability to maintain healthy hygiene habits (or not), this consideration may be one of the most important ones you\u2019ll make here. <\/span><\/p>\n Do you realize that even the most durable, luxury-grade piece won\u2019t work for every user? The compatibility of that furniture with your chosen sex toys and lubes is a consideration that too many people overlook (and then later regret). Make sure the model you\u2019re looking at plays well with others. And by that, I mean: Ensure it has the proper elements for the kinds of kink you\u2019re into. Whether that be O-rings for BDSM restraints or a universal hole for your favorite dildo doesn\u2019t matter. What matters is that this thing is well-suited to your current sex life (and hopefully your future one too). <\/span><\/p>\n Those considerations should get you closer to the perfect product than you\u2019ve ever been before, or at least they\u2019ll give you a road map to the ideal piece. Sorting through the options on today\u2019s adult market is tough, even for an old pro like me. However, we all need to learn that some things never change \u2013 like the top seven ways to tell if that sex sofa is worth it or not. Meanwhile, a few of the best turds have started to float to the top of the water and I\u2019ve been waiting on the shore with my net for this very moment. <\/span><\/p>\n Before stepping up onto the shores of great sex with professional pervs like me, let\u2019s make sure you do, in fact, \u201cknow thyself\u201d the way your mama taught you. Remember, there is no right or wrong answer for any of the following questions which, by the way, you need to ask yourself before proceeding any further: <\/span><\/p>\n Do I have a specific kind of sex or position I\u2019m wanting to try? <\/span><\/p>\n Do I need to keep it put away or can it be left out on display in my home?<\/span><\/p>\n Will my lube preference limit my selection in any way? <\/span><\/p>\n Is there a certain kind of product or material I need to stay away from? <\/span><\/p>\n Is there a certain kind of material I absolutely love or require for my intended purposes, skin type and lube preference? <\/span><\/p>\n Do I plan to display it openly or use it with other adult products as part of a themed scene or session? <\/span><\/p>\n How many marital aids do I want to experiment with and what kinds of toys are they? Also, do I need a specific kind of furniture to make it happen? <\/span><\/p>\n Do I weigh too much or too little for a certain type of physical erotica support product? <\/span><\/p>\n Does your partner weigh too much or too little for any certain type of physical erotica support product? <\/span><\/p>\n How much weight will this piece of furniture have to hold up so you both can bust a nut?<\/span><\/p>\n TIP:<\/strong> Be honest here, because it\u2019s your safety and reputation that\u2019s at stake. And ask that your partner keep the fibs to a minimum too because there\u2019s a decision coming up and you both want to be properly prepared with accurate information. In other words, leave the fantasies in the bedroom and always bring your humility on the shopping trip. <\/span><\/p>\n Do a quick search on the internet and you\u2019ll probably find hundreds of different options to choose from. There\u2019s no shortage of choice, that\u2019s for sure. The quality thereof is what seems to be lacking. So, while dozens of manufacturers make it their sole mission to churn out products that could technically qualify as \u201cuseful\u201d in the bedroom, only a handful of the available models stand out with any real ferocity. <\/span><\/p>\n You could spend hours trying to compare products, but let\u2019s not subject ourselves to any more waiting when there\u2019s so much good sex to have. Check out these top 5 sofas for yourself and discover what all the fuss is about: <\/span><\/p>\n BEST OVERALL<\/strong> <\/span><\/p>\n It doesn\u2019t get any fancier than this. The trusted Liberator brand has once again lived up to their lofty reputation with the sleek and sophisticated Esse II Black Label Chaise. This thing is available in 10 different colors and can be customized with four distinct cuff accessory kit options.
