What is sex furniture?
Sex furniture is furniture built for sex: it supports your body, holds angles that are hard to keep on a bed and often adds tie-down points for restraint. Here, that means sex chairs, a chaise, benches, a St. Andrew's cross, a swing on its own stand, and a foam wedge and cushions. Pieces built mainly for restraint are also called bondage furniture or BDSM furniture. More BDSM toys and bondage gear.
How does a sex swing work?
A sex swing holds the receiving partner in a padded seat with straps or stirrups, carrying their weight so their partner can move them with little effort. The common styles are door swings, ceiling-mounted swings and free-standing swings on their own stand. With a door or ceiling swing, follow its maker's instructions and weight limit. Ours, the Throne, is free-standing. Its metal stand holds up to 330 lbs, and chains suspend a firm, padded chair that adjusts in height and angle, reclining from 90 to 180 degrees. No ceiling hooks, no drilling.
Types of sex furniture
Sex chairs and bondage chairs
The Obedience Adjustable Bondage Chair supports up to 440 lbs (199 kg). Its backboard and leg height adjust independently, upright to reclined; straps with ABS buckles hold your partner, and side D-rings take cuffs. The Pink Stiletto Corset Throne Chair, inspired by 1970s stiletto-heel chairs, is foam-padded eucalyptus wood in vegan leather, for straddling, kneeling, sitting and posing.
Sex chaise lounges
The Kinky Couch Sex Chaise Lounge is a sex couch whose curves support and position you both, and its listing says it would pass for an elegant chaise lounge in any room. It's upholstered in vegan PU leather, and its wood-and-metal frame holds up to 440 lbs. It comes with two support pillows and cuffs that attach to the sides and base.
Bondage benches and spanking benches
A bondage bench holds a partner in place; a spanking bench adds impact play. The foam Lover's Bondage Bench has 12 attachment points and comes with 2 wrist cuffs, 2 ankle cuffs and connectors. The steel Obedience Extreme Sex Bench is a spanking bench that supports up to 400 lbs, with arms and legs that raise or lower and straps with quick-release buckles.
St. Andrew's cross
A St. Andrew's cross is an X-shaped frame for upright restraint. The Masters St. Andrew's Cross mounts flat to the wall and can hide behind a curtain or furniture. Attachment points along each arm and leg pad take cuffs, rope or other gear, so a partner can face the wall or face out. Add wrist and ankle cuffs.
Sex swing with a stand
We carry one sex swing, the free-standing Throne. Its padded vegan-leather chair has stirrups and wipes clean. Plan your floor space: the assembled stand is 80 inches tall on an 87 by 67 inch base.
Sex wedges, cushions and toy saddles
Sex wedges and cushions, often called sex pillows, lift and angle your body. The XL Love Cushion is a high-density foam position wedge, 29.5 by 19 by 10 inches, for under the hips, behind the shoulders or between the legs. The Deluxe Wand Saddle's 7-inch deep, open-ended pocket fits most wands, vibrators and dildos, so you can ride hands-free.
How to choose sex furniture
- What it's for. Positions, restraint, impact (the Obedience Extreme) or riding a toy hands-free (the Love Toy Cushion or Deluxe Wand Saddle).
- Weight limit. Check each listing: listed limits run from 330 lbs to 660 lbs, and several listings give none.
- Space. The Throne's base is 87 by 67 inches, the wall-mounted cross 72 by 37.5 inches assembled, and the Lover's bench 36 inches long.
- Assembly. The cross ships in 5 parts with a screwdriver and 20 bolts; you supply the drill, bits and stud finder. The Throne's tools and instructions are in the box.
- Tie-down points. 12 on the Lover's bench, six on the Bareback Submission Horse Bondage Bench, D-rings on the bondage chair and points along the cross's arm and leg pads. The Kinky Couch comes with cuffs.
- Materials and cleaning. Faux leather (PU, PVC or vegan leather) wipes clean; the foam bench, wedge and cushions have machine-washable covers.
How to use sex furniture
- Check the listing's limits, and follow the maker's instructions to set it up, on a flat floor for anything that stands.
- Talk about what you both want. For restraint or impact, agree on a safeword, plus a hand signal for when someone's gagged, and stop the moment either is used.
- Set height and angle before anyone gets on: the Throne swing's seat at hip height for a standing partner, the bondage chair's backboard and legs.
- Help your partner on and off slowly.
- Add restraints only once your partner is comfortable. Check circulation often, and never leave them alone.
- For impact on a bench, start light, on fleshy areas like the buttocks, thighs and upper back, away from the spine, kidneys, neck, face and joints.
- Afterward, wipe down faux leather or wash foam covers, and check straps, buckles, chains and bolts for wear.
Cleaning, care and safety
- Wipe faux leather with toy cleaner and a soft cloth, and keep it out of direct sun and heat. The cross's pads also wipe clean with isopropyl alcohol.
- Machine-wash the foam pieces' covers. The Lover's bench covers take a cold cycle, then air or tumble dry low.
- Stay under the listed weight limit, and check the hardware before every session.
- Circulation: fingers and toes should stay warm and normal in color, with no numbness or tingling. Release right away if that changes.
- Restraint basics: never leave a restrained partner alone, and keep safety shears within reach for rope. Nothing gets tied around the neck, and a collar or leash should never bear weight or restrict breathing.
- Pain or numbness that doesn't fade? Talk to your doctor.
Sex furniture FAQ
How do you use a sex swing?
Settle the receiving partner into the seat with their legs in the stirrups. On the Throne, set the chair at hip height for a standing partner and pick an angle from 90 to 180 degrees, or recline them back for oral. Start slow and gentle, and stop the moment either of you asks.
Do you need to hang a sex swing from the ceiling?
No, only ceiling-mounted swings do. Door swings hang from a door, and free-standing swings like the Throne sit on their own stand, with no ceiling hooks or drilling. With a door or ceiling swing, follow its maker's instructions and weight limit.
How do you use a sex chair?
You sit, straddle, kneel or recline on it, depending on the chair. The Obedience Adjustable Bondage Chair straps a partner in, upright or reclined.
