Pressing the top button for a few seconds turns the vibe on

We’re also testing nearly a dozen other vibrators, including the FemmeFunn Ultra Wand, the Satisfyer Pro 2 Generation 3, and Womanizer Next. We’re testing the new Magic Wand Waterproof, a more-powerful (and IPX7-rated) version of our top pick, the Magic Wand Rechargeable. We recommend storing toys in boxes or pouches to keep them dust-free and putting them in a cool, dark place where they will not have exposure to direct sunlight. Many high-end manufacturers include cloth pouches or attractive storage boxes with their toys. The Magic Wand was the only toy in our test group that could consistently bring testers to an intense climax quickly, intuitively, effectively, and predictably.

We would recommend these models, which are typically priced around $90, to experienced sex-toy connoisseurs looking for something different, rather than to newbies shopping for their first vibrator. The Womanizer OG is a wand with a larger suction mouth designed for internal (G-spot) stimulation, though it can also be used externally. However, some customer reviewers who say they have large clitorises, prefer more gentle stimulation, or like a longer handle say they’ve found this toy to be good for external stimulation.

It would seem that vibrators fall under the rubric of unmentionable products (Katsanis, 1994), and hence are largely avoided from scientific inquiry (at least by marketing scholars). That said, vibrators constitute a market estimated at one billion dollars in the United States alone (Chiang, 2011). Most vibrators have locking mechanisms too, which some people mistake for a faulty product. Gerek vouches that this toy makes for “explosive climaxes” with its combination of sucking, stroking, and vibration. Yes, there’s even a “climax button” you can deploy when you’re getting close to coming, and the toy will suck you in even deeper, mimicking a deep-throating sensation for an intense finish.

It’s a reliable vibrator with an unassuming yet modern look, and it’s never let me down. This toy is a clit sucker, meaning that it provides suction stimulation for pleasure as opposed to vibration. As I stated in my review of BuzzFeed’s Air Vibe, I’m not a huge fan of clit suckers.

Searching for specific product reviews or experiences shared by users online can help you make an informed decision based on others’ experiences. Like the Hitachi, Le Wand has a “wave” button to cycle through the patterns, but it has a plus and minus button to change the speed (also, the plus button serves as “on” while minus serves as “off”). Similar to the other toys, Le Wand has both vibration and pulsing available, just with more variety in terms of the quickness and intensity of the pulses — these patterns are all laid out in Le Wand’s user guide.

Also neat is that half of the underbelly is ridged , for some added texture. He also independently reviews new products in the wellness space for Good Housekeeping, which he has done previously for Martha Stewart Living and Cooking Light. These testers evaluated aspects like connectivity, ease of use, adaptability and flexibility for personal use in the bedroom, and upkeep and cleaning aspects after intimacy. Reviews were coordinated over the span of a minimum of two weeks, if not longer.

This one is for all the makeup girlies (and of course, anyone with a vulva). Angie Rowntree, the founder and director of ethical porn sit Sssh, recommends this super cute bullet vibrator that is compact, easy to hide away and looks just like an everyday object you’d have with you on the go. “When it comes to discretion viberator, you really can’t beat a toy that fits inconspicuously into your makeup bag!” Rowntree says. Finger vibrators of the past used to be dinky and weak, which is why the Dame Fin is so revolutionary.

We recommend that you cover your toys with a condom when sharing them with partners, especially if it’s someone with whom you are not fluid-bonded (that is, you typically use barriers for other types of sexual activity). The Purple Pleasure’s control panel consists of a pair of buttons located above the handle on the top of the toy. Pressing the top button for a few seconds turns the vibe on and off, and the same button allows you to cycle forward through five vibration strengths and 10 patterns.

And if you like both, a rabbit or dual-stimulation vibe could be your perfect match. Vibrators come in a ton of shapes and styles, with different power and speed settings. Many vibes are designed for external stimulation, but there are also lots of options that can be used internally to target the G-spot, A-spot, cervix, and prostate. Dual-stimulation vibrators can reach two hot spots at once—rabbit vibes, for example, focus on both the clit and the G-spot.

What is a suction vibrator (or, as most of us will call them clitoral stimulator or suction toys) and how does it work? Well, suction toys use the power of air (or sonic waves, in one case) to create a highly stimulating sensation on and around the clitoris. As you may or may not know, the clitoris is a bigger-on-the-inside marvel of biological machinery that people with vulvas have.
