Quick answer: Sohimi is an adult store intended for customers who are 18 years or older, or the age of majority in their location. If you are not legally allowed to buy adult products, do not purchase sex toys. Adults who shop online should focus on privacy, discreet delivery, body-safe materials, correct product choice, lubricant compatibility, and proper cleaning.
This article has been updated from an older post that discussed teenage purchasing. Sohimi does not encourage minors to buy adult products, visit adult stores, or bypass age rules. The guidance below is for adults only.
Who should buy adult toys online?
Adult products are for adults. Before buying, confirm that you meet the legal age requirement in your location and that the product is legal to purchase where you live. A responsible adult store should never encourage underage customers to buy adult products secretly or through unsafe channels.
What adults should check before buying
- Material: Choose products with clear material information, such as silicone, ABS, stainless steel, glass, or TPE where appropriate.
- Cleaning: Check whether the toy is waterproof, splashproof, rechargeable, removable, or sleeve-based before cleaning.
- Lubricant: Water-based lubricant is the safest general option when you are unsure about material compatibility.
- Size and experience level: Beginners should start with smaller, smoother, easier-to-clean designs.
- Privacy: Look for discreet packaging, clear billing information, and customer support if you have delivery questions.
- Instructions: Read the product manual before charging, cleaning, or using advanced functions.
How to choose a beginner-friendly product
For a first product, choose something simple, comfortable, and easy to clean. Avoid oversized products, intense settings, complex app controls, or advanced anal toys unless you already understand your comfort level and safety needs.
Adults shopping for the first time can start with basic vibrators, small external toys, beginner-friendly male masturbators, or simple couples toys. For anal products, a flared base and plenty of lubricant are essential.
Privacy and discreet shipping
Many adults want privacy when buying intimate products online. Sohimi offers discreet shopping and product pages designed to help customers compare choices before buying. Use a shipping address where you can receive packages safely and legally.
Safe use after delivery
- Read the product page and manual before use.
- Clean the product before and after use.
- Use lubricant when needed, especially for sleeve-style or anal products.
- Do not share toys without cleaning and barrier protection.
- Stop if there is pain, numbness, bleeding, or unusual discomfort.
- Dry the product fully before storage or charging.

Important note
