How to choose a gift for him
We counted 123 strokers, automatic masturbators, cock rings, sleeves and prostate toys in the 1sttoy men's range. Prices run NZ$8 to NZ$350, with a median of NZ$73. Five questions narrow that down quickly.
- Solo or shared? Strokers and automatic masturbators are solo toys. Vibrating cock rings and remote prostate toys are easy to bring into partner play.
- Hands-on or hands-free? Manual strokers in the range run NZ$9.99 to NZ$95 (median NZ$35). Automatic ones run NZ$40 to NZ$350 (median NZ$105).
- Size. Check the cm figures. Ring sets in the range start at 2.3 cm inner diameter. Prostate toys sit around 11 to 13 cm long and about 3 cm wide.
- Charging and water. Only 12 of the 69 automatic masturbators publish an IPX7 rating. Most others say splash-proof, washable sleeve, or give no rating.
- Budget. Twelve products sit under NZ$30, 68 between NZ$30 and NZ$80, and 43 above NZ$80.

Strokers vs automatic masturbators
A manual stroker is a soft sleeve, usually TPE or silicone, that you move by hand with lube. It is quiet, has nothing to charge, and costs little. The Stroker Sleeve – Pocket Size, TPE, Honeycomb Texture at NZ$18 and the Stroker Sleeve – Bottle Shape, Ribbed Interior, Manual at NZ$20 are both simple first buys.
An automatic masturbator puts the sleeve inside a powered case. Motors add vibration, suction or a thrusting motion, so the hands can rest. The Automatic Masturbator – 10 Vibration, 5 Suction Modes, White combines 10 vibration and 5 suction modes and measures 21.5 × 7.9 cm.
The Automatic Masturbator – 10 Telescopic Modes, Voice, Rechargeable at NZ$76 uses 10 telescopic (thrusting) rotation modes and a voice function. Its sleeve is 8.5 cm long with a 3 cm opening, and the unit itself is not water rated.
The trade-off is cleaning and noise. Powered cases need the sleeve removed and dried, and motors make some sound. The supplier lists the suction model at under 60 dB. For a full side-by-side, read our male masturbator guide: manual vs automatic, or browse the male masturbator collection.
Cock rings
A cock ring is a snug loop worn at the base of the penis, or around the penis and testicles. It adds a feeling of pressure, and vibrating versions add a small motor that a partner can feel too.
For a first ring, a stretchy multi-size set is the easiest gift because sizing is guesswork. The Cock Ring Set – Silicone, 6 Rings plus Dual-Loop Ring at NZ$19 has six inner diameters from 2.3 to 4 cm, plus a dual-loop ring.
For couples, the Snail Vibrating Cock Ring – Dual Motor, 10 Modes at NZ$44 adds 10 vibration modes, two motors and a remote. It has been ordered more than once at 1sttoy.
Safe use is simple. Use lube, take the ring off after 20 to 30 minutes, and remove it straight away if anything feels numb, cold or painful. Never sleep in one. Read our cock ring beginner's guide for sizing, or browse all cock rings.
Prostate toys
A prostate toy is an anal toy with a curved head aimed at the front wall, about where the prostate sits. For a first one, look for a slim shape, a wide flared base and plenty of lube.
The Prostate Massager – Vibrating, Remote Control, 6 Styles starts at NZ$40. The dimensioned styles measure 11.5 to 12.5 cm long and 2.8 to 3 cm wide, with a 5.5 to 6 cm base. It is silicone, USB rechargeable and remote controlled.
The Prostate Massager – Thrusting Beads, Dual Cock Ring, Remote at NZ$65 is a step up rather than a starter. It combines thrusting beads (2.5, 3.6 and 3.8 cm) with a dual cock ring. It offers 9 vibration and 9 thrust modes and is rated IPX6.
Use a water-based lube with silicone toys, go slowly, and stop if anything hurts. The seven prostate massagers in the range cost NZ$35 to NZ$75. See the prostate massager collection or our anal toys for beginners guide.

Gifting to a partner, with Christmas order-by dates
For the best chance of delivery before Christmas, order by Friday 4 December (urban) or Tuesday 1 December (rural). Delivery is tracked, 7–12 working days after dispatch; these dates are our best estimate, not a promise.
From 20 November to 4 December, NZ delivery is free on orders of NZ$75 or more. Outside that window it is NZ$10, free from NZ$100.
A toy lands best as a gift when he has already shown interest. If you are unsure, a shared toy such as a vibrating ring feels less like a comment on him. Adding a lube and a short note helps too.
The parcel arrives in plain packaging, so you can wrap it yourself. More ideas sit in the Christmas gifts collection.
What the other guides don't tell you
- Automatic costs about three times manual. In the 1sttoy range the median automatic masturbator is NZ$105 against NZ$35 for a manual stroker. A first-timer may not need the motor.
- "Waterproof" usually means the sleeve. Of 69 automatic masturbators, 12 publish IPX7 and 39 publish no water rating at all. Plan to wipe the case, not rinse it.
- Ring size is a measurement, not a guess. Ring inner diameters in the range start at 2.3 cm. A multi-size set is the safest gift when you cannot measure.
- Delivery time sets the Christmas deadline. Most ranking guides are written for UK or US buyers and leave out NZ courier times and rural cut-offs.
- Prostate toys are mid-priced. All seven in the range cost NZ$35 to NZ$75, so there is no need to spend big on a first one.
Buying in New Zealand
1sttoy dispatches from its supplier's warehouse overseas, and tracked delivery to NZ addresses takes 7–12 working days. Shipping is NZ$10, free on orders of NZ$100 or more, and no tax is added at checkout.
Parcels come in plain, unbranded packaging, and the outer label shows only the name and delivery address. Opened intimate products cannot be returned for change of mind, but faulty items are put right and your rights under NZ consumer law apply.
Frequently asked questions
What is the best sex toy for a man who has never used one?
A manual stroker or a stretchy ring set is the simplest start. Both cost under NZ$30, need no charging and are easy to clean. At 1sttoy, the pocket stroker is NZ$18 and the silicone ring set is NZ$19. If he enjoys it, an automatic masturbator from about NZ$75 is the natural next step, adding vibration or suction so his hands can rest.
How much does a sex toy for men cost in NZ?
Across the 123 strokers, rings, sleeves and prostate toys in the 1sttoy men's range, prices run NZ$8 to NZ$350, with a median of NZ$73. Manual strokers have a median of NZ$35. Automatic masturbators have a median of NZ$105. Cock rings start at NZ$10, and prostate massagers cost NZ$35 to NZ$75.
Is it a good idea to give my partner a sex toy as a gift?
It usually works when he has already shown interest or you have talked about it. If not, choose something you can share, such as a vibrating cock ring, so it reads as an invitation rather than a hint. Give it privately, add a lube and a short note, and leave room for him to say it is not for him.
When should I order for Christmas delivery in NZ?
For the best chance of delivery before Christmas, order by Friday 4 December (urban) or Tuesday 1 December (rural). Delivery is tracked, 7–12 working days after dispatch, and these dates are our best estimate, not a promise. From 20 November to 4 December, delivery is free on NZ orders of NZ$75 or more.
How do I choose a first prostate toy?
Pick a slim, curved silicone toy with a wide flared base, about 11 to 13 cm long and around 3 cm wide. A remote helps because reaching controls can be awkward. Use plenty of water-based lube, go slowly and stop if anything hurts. The vibrating remote prostate massager at 1sttoy starts at NZ$40.
Will anyone know what is in the parcel?
No. 1sttoy parcels come in plain, unbranded packaging, and the outer label shows only the recipient's name and delivery address. There is no product name or store branding on the outside. That also makes it easy to wrap the box yourself before giving it, or to send it straight to his address.
Can I return a sex toy if he does not like it?
Opened intimate products cannot be returned for change of mind, for hygiene reasons. Faulty items are put right, and your rights under NZ consumer law apply. That is why sizing matters. Check the published cm figures, or choose a stretchy multi-size ring set or a soft TPE stroker.
