VIBCO Ball Vibrators

These one-and-done products allow you to explore your sexual tastes and try something new without breaking the bank, she explains. Dr. O’Relly suggests this remote- and app-controllable option from We-Vibe. It magnetically fastens into underwear (of any style) or a strap-on harness so “you can wear it out on the town or at a dinner party to take pleasure in secrecy and/or breaking the rules,” she says. The vibrations themselves are powerful but quiet—idea for thrill-seekers who enjoy the playful side of pleasure, she adds. The bestselling Dame Fin can be held between your fingers and has an optional tether that can loop around them for even more movement and exploration. “If you prefer the tactile sensation of your partner’s hand to that of a sex toy, you can position the Fin on the top side of your fingers, turning them into a conduit for the vibration,” says Finn.

The Pom is meant to fit in the palm of the user’s hand (get it?), making it compact and easy to control. The toy can bend for general or targeted clitoral stimulation with a pointed edge that juts out in the top of the toy. This tiny but mighty blob from sexual wellness brand Dame has five intensities and five patterns, laid out in the user manual — which isn’t something I can say about every toy. Finn confessed that the Womanizer isn’t technically a vibrator, but judging from her recommendation and that of many lists, no one cares. “If you’ve read any articles on sex toys recently, you’ve probably heard about ‘suction’-style toys, sex toys that use air pulsation to deliver targeted pleasure,” said Finn.

Each vibrator was tested by at least five people over the span of a few weeks, with panellists tasked with trying every speed setting, vibration pattern and any other innovative features on offer. They also kept a keen eye on battery life and claims such as waterproofing. Sex therapist Ness Cooper recommends this flexible, bendable rabbit vibe to anyone who struggles with genital pain or has found overly firm toys to be uncomfortable in the past. Rabbit vibrators can get pretty pricey, because they’re essentially two vibrators mashed into one. It’s rare to find one for under $50 that’s actually decent, but this one fits the bill.

After 20 minutes of consistent use, the Hitachi shuts off for safety reasons (presumably, because the toy gets hotter the longer it’s on) and to preserve battery life. But for the most part, this isn’t an area too many companies seem comfortable approaching just yet. For example, one sex toy designer did chuckle when I made the hypothetical suggestion of sex toys specifically made and marketed for older users. Among the companies that are consciously working to address and court this demographic is Tantus, which has been actively creating sex toys with disabled users in mind for years. There’s also the Fiera pre-intimacy vibrator for generating arousal , whose creators told Mic it’s made with seniors in mind.

All of this power does mean the Magic Wand Rechargeable is larger than most vibrators and weighs 600g and like many wands it is not waterproof. It’s designed to mimic oral sex – think the flutter of a tongue and the suction of a mouth, and achieves that thanks to its clitoral vacuum technology. With over 40 different pleasure combos, from eight levels of intensity and five different vibration patterns this vibrator is sure to blow your mind. From best-selling sex toy brand Dame, the budget-friendly Zee is a do-it-all bullet vibrator. “The design is simple viberators, the aesthetic is minimalist, and there is a simple, single-button control for navigating the three different speeds,” says Finn.
