At first glance the Onyx Deep ($54.99) and the Ember Curve ($49.99) look like two versions of the same idea: a body-safe silicone dildo in a similar size class. Spend a session with each and it becomes clear they are solving different problems. Here is how to pick between them.
Build and texture
Onyx Deep leans into realism. It has a pronounced head ridge, defined veins, and a slightly softer outer layer over a firmer core, which gives it that “fills like the real thing” combination of give and structure. Ember Curve skips the realism entirely. Its body is smooth with a gentle upward sweep and a rounded, featureless tip.
If you want texture and ridges, Onyx is the one. If you want pure glide with no surface distraction, Ember wins.
Reach and target
This is where the two toys really diverge. Ember’s curved profile is built to hook the front wall – hold it so the curve points up and you are actively targeting G-spot stimulation without needing to angle your wrist. Onyx is straighter and thicker, which makes it a depth and fullness toy. It will reach the spot, but it relies on your own movement and positioning to do it.
Comfort and length
Both stay comfortable across a range of experience levels. Onyx Deep offers more of a stretch, so if you are newer to internal toys, Ember’s smoother, slimmer profile is the gentler entry point. More experienced users tend to prefer Onyx’s texture and the way the softer outer skin reduces friction at full depth.
Cleaning and care
Both are 100% body-safe silicone, which means they are fully non-porous: wash with warm water and mild soap or a toy cleaner, and they dry ready for storage. Neither reacts with silicone toys – but remember the lube rule from our material guide: always water-based lube, never silicone lube, on silicone surfaces.
Which should you choose?
- Choose Onyx Deep if you enjoy realism, texture, and a filling stretch.
- Choose Ember Curve if you want targeted G-spot angles and a smooth, beginner-friendly profile.
Both are honest values at their price. If you already have a textured favorite, Ember adds a different skill to your collection; if you are replacing a worn-out favorite with something better, Onyx is the upgrade. Browse the full dildo range to compare sizes.
