Strap yourself in! Get Gwyneth’s sex chair for a fraction of the cost but all of the pleasure says hook-up app expert
Gwyneth Paltrow’s Goop Holiday Gift Guide hit headlines this week with a $28k sex chair, but hook-up app Tapdat’s Creative Director Alice Leach says you don’t need to splurge to spice up your sex life this Christmas.
Alice has revealed her top five sex chairs to guarantee a very Merry Christmas and explains what it is about them that makes them so seductive.
Alice says: “Sex chairs are great for exploring new positions, but the biggest benefit of having such great support is being able to comfortably hold positions, enabling you to explore your partner’s body, rhythms, and sensations for longer. They can open up our range of movement, or provide a hands-free experience allowing for more time for touch. It’s also good to remember that you can use any chair, cushion, bean bag, or sofa to try a more supportive upright position. But, if you’re looking for some sexy new furniture, these are my favourite (much more affordable) alternatives to Gwyneth’s pricey pick.”
Alice’s top five budget-friendly alternatives to Gwyneth’s sex chair:
1. Bondara’s Anti-Gravity Sex Chair £59.99
Alice says: “This chair is perfect for alleviating some of the stress and strain on your body as you move into different positions and works well for people with limited mobility. Be it vaginal, anal, or oral sex, or even used for self-pleasure, this chair allows you to try out a variety of positions whilst remaining comfortable.”
2. Love Honey’s Inflatable Vibrating Dildo Chair £29.99
Alice says: “This inflatable chair is bright pink and super fun. It comes with an attached realistic vibrator for bouncy penetration play and is perfect for those looking for self-pleasure with a closer-to-sex experience or who want to keep their hands free. It’s quick and easy to inflate and has a handle on either side for something to hold onto!”
3. Bang On’s Loveheart Sex Pillow £77.90
Alice says: “For those wanting optimum comfort, this love heart shaped ramp supports hips, neck, or back during intercourse, and can aid comfier sex for longer. It can give you better angles for deeper penetration and is made with a lush velvet fabric that feels soft on your skin.”
4. Love Honey’s Purple Reins Sex Sling £149.99
Alice says: “If a chair is too run of the mill – try a swing. This hammock-style sex swing is ultra-padded and fully adjustable. Offering a counter movement, the sensation of swinging offers deeper penetration, supported movement and a new range of experiences and angles.”
5. Fiylon’s Sinful Bondage Kit £48.49
Alice says: “Any chair can be a sex chair with the right accessories! Fiylon’s Sinful Bondage Kit is a great choice for those who want to explore the world of BDSM. Use the ankle and wrist cuffs on an ordinary chair and you’ve got your own sex chair without taking up any of the space. This set comes with a quilted surface for maximum comfort and its hot pink colour will get you in the mood.”
