Vibrator Cleaning and Storage — Drying Matters Most

"How do I wash a toy I have just bought?" "How should I clean and put away one I have used?" People treat this as complicated, but the order is short — rinse it, dry it, put it away. Here is what actually goes wrong at each of those steps.

Key takeaways

First check: is it safe to put under water?

One question decides how you clean it — can this product get wet? The rinse-and-dry routine below only holds for a waterproof toy.

Every toy sold at AROOO is waterproof, so you can wash it under water without worrying. On top of that, the charging port is double-sealed on the inside, which answers the question we get most often — "is it a problem if water gets into the charging port?" It is not.

If you bought elsewhere, check whether the product is waterproof first. Do not apply this routine to a toy that is not.

1. Rinse it under lukewarm water after use

The washing part is almost anticlimactic. Most Dame products only need a light rinse under running water after use.

2. Drying — the step that matters more than washing

Drying matters more than washing. The rinse takes seconds, but skip this step and the rinse counts for little. There are only two things to do.

Above all, make sure it is completely dry before charging. The port is sealed, so water getting in is not a problem — but charge it once it has dried.

3. Storage — sunlight, dust, pouch

  1. Wipe the water off after use
  2. Let it dry thoroughly, including the charging port, before you use it again

Three things are all you need to follow.

  • Keep it out of direct sunlight
  • Store it somewhere with little dust
  • Keep it in a pouch

That much alone keeps it noticeably cleaner and lasting longer.

What not to do

Turn the routine above around and you have the list.

  • Putting it under water without knowing whether it is waterproof — rinsing only holds for a waterproof product
  • Piling on soap or strong cleansers — not necessary. Lukewarm water is enough
  • Charging it while it is still damp — check that it is completely dry first
  • Leaving it out in direct sunlight or somewhere dusty — a pouch is the better place

Frequently asked questions

Do I have to use soap or a dedicated toy cleaner?

No. There is no need to pile on soap or strong cleansers — a light rinse under lukewarm water is enough on its own.

Is it a problem if water gets into the charging port?

Toys sold at AROOO are double-sealed on the inside of the charging port, so water getting in is not a problem. Just make sure it is completely dry before you charge it.

Where is the best place to store it?

Out of direct sunlight, somewhere with little dust, and inside a pouch. That much alone keeps it noticeably cleaner and lasting longer.

Does the same routine work for a Womanizer?

The cleaning procedure specific to Womanizer is covered in a separate article. This page is the general routine for waterproof toys that can simply be rinsed under water.
