Durex Play Slim Vibrator Sex Toy Waterproof 8 Vibrations

“It’s simple but effective, washable, and inexpensive… A nice starting point for most guys,” he says. Like the Tenga Egg (more on that below), this toy is designed to be disposable, but can be used up to a few times if you wash and dry it properly between uses. This particular one has a multi-chambered texture on the inside that’s meant to mimic the sensations of a deep-throat blowjob. For an even more realistic oral-esque sensation, you can cover up the air hole on one end using your finger, to introduce some suction into each stroke.

Given its size and the lack of a travel pouch, the wand isn’t the best toy for travel — but for a solo or partnered date at home, it’s perfect (dare I say, magic). Depending on what position you’re in, it can be super awkward to reach down during sex to change the settings on a vibrating cock ring—but not this one, which can be controlled on your phone via We-Vibe’s app. It amps up the sensations of penetrative sex , and can also be a fun addition to masturbation. And like most cock rings, it provides a little compression at the base of your shaft that can help you maintain a stronger erection.

In fact, it’s the top-selling vibrator for both Good Vibrations and online adult store Lovehoney. For less than $50, it’s a fantastic option for beginners and anyone who’s already got toys in their arsenal. Maybe you want to find the best vibrator that at first glance doesn’t look like one. Enter Pep, a small, quiet egg-shaped vibrator that could be mistaken for a high-tech makeup sponge or skincare device. No matter if you’re playing solo or want to spice things up with your partner. Viberator is the premium, stereo version of the vintage, Uni-Vibe® type phase shifter with a number of modern options.

If you prefer the Enhance feel like someone is going down on you with gentle or intense suckage, without a vibration to be felt, you can have that too. Testers found the vibrations powerful on both ends and said the controls were easy to use, making it quick to swap sides. They scored products on their ease of use, design and — of course — performance, with top marks awarded to toys that looked good, were simple to set up and helped our testers achieve intense orgasms.

“Sexual health is a really important factor in your overall health and wellbeing from a physical, mental, emotional and relational perspective,” says Zar. Open-air strokers are a godsend when it comes to breezy clean-up, and, much like its cousin the Fun Factory Manta, the Desire stroker is lightweight and a great travel-size toy. This 9.5-inch-long stoker, however, packs a whopping 20 functions and an angled stroking ring that makes it even easier to use for folks with limited range of motion or grip. Its hard to find something to complain about with this vibe, but we will say that though it can technically be used in the bath or shower, it’s only water-resistant, so you won’t want to submerge it in any water. Other than that viberators, this is simply an elegant vibrator at an affordable price, making it an ideal pick for vibrator users of all experience levels.

Its curved shaft is designed to fit inside the vagina, and it has a slender external arm that makes for easy removal. “It can be controlled from anywhere in the world, the curved head nestles comfortably against the sensitive tissues of the G-spot, and the vibrations range from a rumble to a pulsing earthquake,” Francis says. Like other remote-control offerings, the Lush 3 can also sync up with your music, creating unlimited vibration patterns for an ultra-customizable experience. Most wand vibrators have ball-shaped heads, long handles, and intense motors.

Additionally, ensure the remote control has sufficient battery power before embarking on public play adventures. It can be submerged in water for a short period of time when cleaning the sex toy, according to the user guide. As with all silicone toys, only use either a water-based or oil-based lube, as silicone lube will degrade the material. Even if you’re not using it with a partner, I found the motors pleasantly stimulating enough to be worth occasionally breaking it out for solo play. While it’s not my favorite masturbation toy, it provides vibrations in a way that I don’t think most people with penises are accustomed to experiencing.

Phthalates have come under fire for their potential to affect human health (the scientific jury is still out, according to the CDC) but in the name of “better safe than sorry,” you can easily find sex toys that are phthalate-free. This is any vibrator designed specifically to make the outside of your body feel incredible. People typically use them on their clitoris, labia, and vulva, but you can try them for external stimulation on any part of your body you like.

Another key facet of using any vibrator is keeping it nice and clean, to avoid bacteria buildup and infection. “For toys with motors, you can use fragrance-free soap and water or toy cleaner,” Eva Sweeney, a sex toy reviewer, educator, and founder of Cripping Up Sex with Eva, previously told Allure. You can spritz the toy with a bit of warm soapy water, or, if it’s waterproof, you can soak it in the sink for a few moments. And, like all LELO sex toys, the Ora 3 is so elegantly designed that you can leave it out on your nightstand and people will assume it’s simply a beautiful sculpture…maybe. The G-spot, the P-spot, the A-spot—no matter which internal spot you’re looking to stimulate, there’s probably an insertable vibrator that’s up to the task.
