With regular use, they can elevate your sexual experience no

Best vibrators and sex toys for couples 2025, tested by 130 people

This incredibly sophisticated device promised to take me on a journey of discovery, targeting not just one or two, but three erogenous zones (!) simultaneously. With its innovative SenSonic and DeepSonic technologies, I was eager to see if it could live up to the hype and deliver the mind-blowing orgasms it claimed. When pleasure product companies started making dildos and other toys shaped like tentacles, unicorn horns, candy canes, and even chess pieces, I was tickled.

There can be all sorts of loaded feelings about a toy that has been used before, especially with other partners. Hot Octopuss is known for making toys with mega-strong motors, and this bullet vibrator is no different. It’s also got a unique shape that allows you to focus its intensity into a small, pointed tip, or spread it out more along its broader side.

In addition vibrator, it holds its charge for up to 6 hours and can sync to music for unlimited vibration patterns. With a price tag of $69 (currently on sale for $59), the Ambi remote control bullet vibrator has features commonly found in higher-end toys. It keeps its charge for up to 4 hours , has 30 levels/pattern combinations, and is water-resistant. In this post, we’ll share the 17 best remote control vibrators you can use to take your encounters to the next level. As Shepherd mentions, care must be taken to avoid preventable problems.

Then we scoured the massive pool of sex toy options (and read tons of reviews) to find the ones that hit a variety of pleasure points, and that can be used alone or as a couple. According to sex therapists, prioritizing your pleasure offers benefits for yourself, and thus, your partner. With regular use, they can elevate your sexual experience no matter what you’re in the mood for. Their texture feels nice to the touch, and silicone is nonporous, making it safe and easy to clean. Another popular nonporous option is a toy made of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) plastic.

Although we recommend this model as a starter vibrator, for some of our testers the hard plastic became slippery and difficult to hold when it came in contact with lubricant. This was not the case with the less expensive Satisfyer Purple Pleasure. While the Luna Ava vibrator is a steal at $30, don’t expect it to replace your Magic Wand anytime soon. We found its vibrations to be more buzzy than rumbly, and the 20 different settings are a nuisance given that there is no back-or-forth button—you have to click through all 20 to return to the one you started with. Waterproof toys made from nonporous materials such as silicone and stainless steel can tolerate washing with soap and warm water. If you have non-waterproof toys, carefully wipe them clean with a solution of soap and warm water.

If you need (or want) a lot of stimulation to get off, a great wand is your best bet, whether it’s rechargeable or plugs into the wall. Bianca Alba, MPH, is a nonbinary sexual-health educator, consultant, and journalist based in Chicago. Bianca was formerly managing editor of a Kinsey Institute blog and has presented academic research on transgender-youth health advocacy, using sex toys as therapeutic tools in clinical practice, and menstrual biohacking. She/they are passionate about normalizing healthy discussions of sexuality in everyday life. The Evolved Tongue Tied is our favorite of the “tongue” vibrators we’ve tested. While they’re not as pinpointed as those from the Lelo Dot, we did find that this vibrator’s flickering tongue (measuring about 1 inch long and 0.25 inches wide at the tip) offers powerful, focused sensations.

Nothing says, “I’m replacing your dick with this vibrator” or “I need a penis over your vulva to be happy” like bringing home a vibrator that is shaped like a larger-than-life penis. When using Puff with a water-based lubricant like Unbound’s Jelly, apply a small amount to the outer ring. Puff is optimized for use on the clitoris but can be applied anywhere externally on the body where you’re able to achieve an adequate seal.Puff can be easily cleaned with warm water and soap.Clean before and after use. Some people prefer to use cock rings around their shaft only, which might be more comfortable, especially if you’re on the girthier side.

A whisper-quiet, lay-on vibrator, the rumbly Womanizer Vibe is uniquely curved to cup your entire vulva.. You can use the broad side’s edges or the pointed tip to directly target your clitoris, Shamyra Howard, PhD, CST, LCSW, a licensed clinical social worker and AASECT-certified sex therapist, tells SELF. “Its noiseless feature makes it quieter than many other vibes, which allows you to stay focused on the many intense sensations,” she says.

After a few glasses of wine, I worked up the courage to do the asking. Of these three wands, the Doxy is the one that’s corded (though both Hitachi and Le Wand have corded options, too). While it almost seems archaic to have a wired toy, I see the appeal of using the Doxy. Hitachi’s vibration patterns range from a consistent vibration to a quick pulse to a rev-up-to-slow-down and repeat. The Doxy is the least expensive toy as it starts at just under $120, $15 less than Hitachi. One benefit of the Doxy, however, is that it’s highly customizable from the head to the collar to the buttons to the color of the wand itself.
