Shop Beginner FavouritesWhere Do I Start? A Beginner's Guide to Sex Toys in Australia
Buying your first sex toy can feel like a big step, but it doesn't need to be complicated. At The Other Drawer, we've curated a beginner-friendly range of pleasure products designed to make that first purchase easy, comfortable and completely judgement-free.
If you're new to sex toys, the biggest question is usually: where do I even start? The good news is that some of the best beginner toys are also some of the simplest — compact bullet vibrators and lay-on clitoral stimulators that are easy to hold, easy to control, and gentle enough to help you learn what feels good before exploring anything more intense.
Every toy on this page has been chosen with first-timers in mind. That means straightforward controls (usually just a button or two), multiple speed or pattern options so you can start gentle and build up, and a compact size that's easy to use solo or introduce with a partner. Brands like Satisfyer, Rocks Off and PowerBullet are known across Australia for reliable, body-safe products that perform well without a steep learning curve.
We also know that privacy matters, especially when you're just starting out. Every order from The Other Drawer ships in plain, unbranded packaging with discreet billing, so there's nothing on the outside of the box — or on your bank statement — that gives anything away. Whether you're in Sydney, Perth or a small country town, your order arrives exactly the same way: private, professional and completely yours.
Choosing your first toy doesn't have to be overwhelming. Think about what you're curious about — external stimulation is usually the easiest and most beginner-friendly place to start — and let that guide your choice. From there, our team and product descriptions are here to help, not to make you feel like you need to already be an expert.
Ready to explore? Browse our hand-picked beginner favourites below, or jump into a category if you already have an idea of what you're after. Whatever you choose, you're starting with products that thousands of Australians trust — no guesswork, no pressure, just a simple first step into pleasure done right.
