The 9 Best Wedge Pillows For Sex

If you're exploring wedges for sex, this classic 24-inch Liberator sex pillow should be the first one you try. The reason? It's simply the best. Angled at 27 degrees to give you the perfect pedestal for a variety of positions, including missionary or anal, the Liberator pillow offers a crucial degree of firmness that provides exceptional lift and support. Additionally, the pillow is sloped at such an angle that not only makes it great for G-spot stimulation, but for other types of play (like oral sex) too, since it helps take pressure off the neck. The removable and machine-washable microfiber cover is soft against skin, and the moisture-resistant polyester line keeps the wedge dry.

There are a few downsides to this highly rated wedge, however. Apart from the price tag — which can be prohibitive if you're shopping on a tight budget — it can also be a pain in the neck to store once it's out of its vacuum-sealed packaging.

A reviewer wrote: “Other wedges are too soft and compress. This guy holds its shape to provide the desired effect. If you have considered adding a wedge to your toy box, this is the one.”

Want to enhance the already unbelievable sensations you get during anal sex with something that makes everything feel even more pronounced? Say hello to this folding bed wedge, which gives you (during solo play) or your partner even more access to your backdoor. Spoiler alert: the kinds of sensations you're liable to feel as a result could very well blow your mind. Since this wedge folds down into a standard slope shape, you can use it for other positions as well, and the cover is removable and washable. But when it folds up, it's not only good for storage, but can also open up a whole new world of experiences. Another perk? This wedge also makes for a terrific spanking bench — so long as you're doing it safely and consensually, of course.

A reviewer wrote: “Bought it for sex position support which works great but also works as intended very well. Had to sleep at an angle when I was sick and it was very comfortable and soft.”

Looking for a budget-friendly alternative to standard wedges that you can also travel with or store easily? An inflatable sex wedge pillow like this one is a good gateway option because it’s cheap, portable, and ideal for small spaces with minimal storage. Reviewers have reported that this wedge, which supports up to 330 pounds, is more durable than others and can be inflated quickly. Made from PVC and coated with a velvety material, it doesn't come with a machine-washable or moisture-resistant cover like the Liberator wedge, but it does come at a fraction of the price. To keep an inflatable pillow like this one in good shape, Lopez suggests covering it with a towel while in use. That way you can extend its life to keep it in the mix for plenty of future adventures.

A reviewer wrote: “I bought this with the intention to use for sex only but it has multiple purposes now. [...] You can even use it as a cowboy pillow if you play with toys solo! I’ve used it to elevate my leg during sleep when I sprained my ankle, used it as a back pillow and as a regular pillow at night [because it] helps with my heartburn.”

If it’s versatility you’re after, it doesn’t get any better than the Liberator wedge and ramp combo. The two-piece set includes a larger and smaller wedge with interlocking threads that keep them together, empowering you to get down with everything from oral to missionary to from-behind positions (and the fact that the smaller wedge can support the head only adds to its appeal). Made from high-density foam, the pillows can also be used separately, making this a pick that truly helps you find the best positioning for deep penetration and less strain.

The soft microfiber covers are removable and machine-washable, and the moisture-resistant lining keeps everything dry.

A reviewer wrote: “I understand the price can be a turnoff especially knowing that it's pretty much just a foam pillow. But this isn't your grandma's foam reading pillow for back support. This thing was made for and specifically designed for f*****g. The sturdiness, support and leverage cannot possibly be obtained with everyday pillows. The variety of angles are also something in our 10yrs of marriage we've never been able to achieve before this.”

If you don’t want something inflatable — but aren’t willing to invest in the Liberator — the Xtreme Comforts wedge pillow is a great compromise, even if it isn’t designed specifically for sex. At 7 inches, it’s the same height as the top pick, and the 30-degree angle is also in the same ballpark. It’s made from body-conforming memory foam, a material some people might like the feel of, but keep in mind that it won’t provide as much support as the Liberator’s high-density foam, so you might get a little less lift and may have a tendency to sink in. That being said, the general shape and design of this pick will also be conducive to a variety of fun positions, from oral to doggy style to missionary. The bamboo cover is soft, removable, and machine-washable, but note that there’s no moisture-resistant lining.

A reviewer wrote: “It helps with back support [...] during the missionary position especially if your partner likes it deep. (Legs can go further behind the head without pain.) Also in the doggy style position it helps arch the back a little more especially if your partner is short.”

"For non-penetrative sex, wedges can be great for positioning a sub who is tied up or otherwise restrained," says Lopez. And when it comes to melding kink with pleasure, this sex position pillow does it like nobody’s business. That's because it comes with restraints itself, so you can spice things up by keeping your partner's ankles or wrists bound while you play. The pillow itself is made from dense foam, while the plush velvet cover can be removed and machine-washed. Just as good, it comes at a wallet-friendly price, making it a great option for anyone wanting to explore without spending too much money.

A reviewer wrote: “The pillow is very solid and supportive. Definitely tall enough.”

Unlike other wedges and cushions featured here, this sex cushion doesn't offer a slope. As a result, it's best when used for one position in particular: missionary. Using this ergonomically designed cushion can help make this type of lovemaking more intimate because it angles the hips up, taking penetration to new depths that a pillow alone just can’t. Because of the way this cushion is constructed, you get plenty of hip and tailbone support while you're getting busy, and since it's less bulky than a standard wedge, it's actually very easy to store, comparably. If you're looking for a mid-level pick that's more durable than an inflatable option, yet not as expensive as a Liberator product, this is a great choice.

A reviewer wrote: “It is especially good for those who have lower back or hip pain. The angle is perfect for both partners. It enhances intercourse by making it more pleasurable for both partners. It's the best $30.00 we spent.”

Want to go hands-free while you're masturbating and still get the kind of support and leverage you normally would from a positioning pillow? Harris recommends using a mount like this sex toy pillow from Liberator, which has an opening for a toy. Built to provide support while you straddle it, the BonBon comes with an innovative squeeze design so that your favorite vibrator or dildo can actually fit into it and hit your sweet spot. Like all Liberator models, it comes with a moisture-resistant liner that protects the integrity of the dense foam interior within, plus a removable and machine-washable cover as well. While you can definitely use this with a partner the same as you would an ordinary wedge, its special sex toy mount makes it ideal for solo play.

A reviewer wrote: “Perfect alternative to the motor bunny. We stick a vibrating toy inside and does the same thing minus the $1000.00 price tag.”

Compact and perfectly contoured for intense G-spot stimulation during sex, this heart-shaped Liberator sex wedge is the sweetest little positioning pillow in this round-up. It's smaller than most of the other wedges featured here, so it's not necessarily ideal for more elaborate positions. But with its rich velvet-like material and adorable shape, this heart wedge doubles as a decorative throw pillow, which makes it the most discreet pick of all — and it comes in nine fun colors. You can also wash the cover and, since it comes with a moisture-proof liner, it'll stay intact, no matter how much you try to break it.

A reviewer wrote: “The wedge can be used for front or rear entry. No, there are no instructions on how to use it, but there is a photo on the removable tag. That photo addresses rear entry. For front entry, have the point of the heart facing you. It tilts you up and supports your back. I have lower back problems and this allowed me to enjoy myself without being in pain afterward.”
