I literally just bought two to replace the one K broke a few weaks back I almost don't even feel like using my onaholes when I don't have a drying strick because it literally takes all the chore out of cleaning. Bought my first masturbator over 10 years ago when I was sixteen with Amazon cards(don't judge) that was a cheal American one which is why J didn't say onahole. Then got a Fleshlight and worked my way to onaholes and there was a time i didn't have any holes at all and that was always because they were such a pain to clean. We all know what's actually a pain is the drying because you can easily clean out water based lube and jizz in 2-3 minute maybe a little longer but drying is never that easy.

The drying stick was probably one of the best purchases I've made, it really cuts down the amount of time it takes to dry the Onahole. I also feel like the more intricate designs don't completely dry on their own and can develop a smell if not dried properly, so if you're purchasing high end toys the drying stick really is a must buy. The stick works very well, I usually properly clean the toy, then pat dry as best I can and leave it out with the hole pointing down for about an hour and then use the drying stick. The stick can only absorb so much water, and I find it's more likely to completely dry if the big droplets are able to fall out on their own.

Just rinse with soap and water, but remember that moisture is the enemy. If it ain't dry then you run the risk of bacterial or fungal growth. The dry sticks work and they make drying much easier than sticking a cloth inside. There's a max level of liquid the stick can hold before it needs to dry. I do a dryness test at the end and if it's still wet I use the other end of the stick and gently wiggle it around or squeeze parts of the toy so the stick can come in contact.

I use a dry stick on all my Onaholes, they work for sure. I'll clean my toy then let it air dry for a couple of hours before using the stick to grab the rest of the moisture. Otherwise you would need to leave the onahole to dry for what I would recommend 24 hours.

So the dry sticks do work, but I typically don't only use them when cleaning.
Instead, I recommend that after rinsing with water, you use some thin microfiber towels (like the ones that are used to clean glasses or lenses), to soak out some water first, and then put in the dry stick. This seems to work pretty well, and my entire drying process takes like 2 minutes.
