Unbound Bender Flexible Internal Vibrator
« It is very soft and I love how it’s curved to fit, » one reviewer on the Dame website wrote. « This is my first vibrator so I would say it is beginner-friendly and works well. » Last but not least, Love Triangle was the smallest and by far most discreet of the various Satisfyer toys I tried out. Whisper quiet, it’s another air pulsing, pressure wave toy that stimulates your clitoris (or nipples, follow your heart!) along with a subtle vibration function. It’s again not necessarily the tiniest and most intuitive to place for hands-free play but is easily the MVP for travel — coming with a sweet little cap to store it cleanly and quietly on-the-go.
SnailVibe’s « shell » — or curved bulb — is for clitoral stimulation, while the smooth end (or lower arm) is for vaginal stimulation. When used internally, the shell can uncoil so the lower arm can penetrate the user further (note that this can only be used vaginally, not anally). The sphere on the far end, meanwhile, has buttons to control the toy. Ultimately this is a sweet little item to treat yourself with—or even to give as a gift to friends (with their consent—not everyone has a “give one another sex toys for fun” kind of friendship).
Also, consider where you’ll use the toy and who you’ll use it with (if anyone). Based on your preferences, additional features like waterproofing, app compatibility, remote control operation, and ergonomic handles might be worth considering. Between wands, bullets, palm vibes, and clit suckers, there are a ton of great toys out there.
Customers report that the massager provides great relaxation and leaves muscles feeling very relaxed afterwards. One customer mentions it’s perfect after sitting at a desk all day, while another notes it helps them get to sleep. Customers find the massager extremely powerful and effective, particularly for leg pain relief. This item has been tested to certify it can ship safely in its original box or bag to avoid unnecessary packaging.
You have internal and external anal sphincter muscles; the internal one sucks things up , so your toy could get stuck if there’s nothing to stop it, Carolanne Marcantonio, LCSW, an AASECT-certified sex therapist, tells SELF. Choose a butt plug, dildo, or prostate massager that’s designed for anal sex, and be sure to lube up too, as the anus doesn’t self-lubricate. Le Wand takes pleasure and luxury seriously, so it’s no wonder it scored highly on test. Our panellists were impressed by the range of speed settings and distinctive vibration patterns there are to experiment with, allowing them to achieve orgasms that were both faster and more intense than when using other toys.
For example vibrator, we discovered that the Je Joue Mimi worked best on only one setting, and even then it produced uneven vibrations. The Satisfyer Pro 2, which stimulated with suction and seemed like a promising competitor for the Dame Aer, caused our testers occasional discomfort. And owners report that the inexpensive Wahl All Body Powerful Therapeutic Massager breaks easily. The Magic Wand Rechargeable’s control panel is slightly less intuitive and less easy to use than the dual switch of the Original model, but it’s still fairly straightforward. You could accidentally hit the wrong button during play, but switching back to the correct mode is easy enough. Some testers said they disliked the texture of the Original version’s white vinyl head.
One of the slimmest suction vibrators available, the We-Vibe Melt is our pick for partnered and multi-partnered play. Designed to fit between two bodies during intercourse, it can seamlessly slide in place for non-intrusive clitoral pleasure. Choose from 12 different intensity levels using the buttons on the back of the toy or through the We-Vibe app. This wand from FemmeFunn is one of my all-time favorites, thanks to its simple controls, wide range of vibration patterns, and delightful texture it delivers. Covered in buttery, body-safe silicone, it feels silky and skinlike—not sticky or tacky, as can be the case with lower-quality toys.
For example, you may want a small vibrator if you plan on using it during penetrative sex, and any vibe you’ll be using anally should have a flared base so it doesn’t get lost inside you. We decided not to test the original Smile Makers’s The Billionaire because it required one AA battery for four hours of use. The redesigned version has a rechargeable battery, but costs $20 more than the Satisfyer Purple Pleasure, and is covered by a lesser warranty. We tried the 6, which is similar in shape and size to a fountain pen. Unfortunately, we found the toy’s vibrations to be a bit buzzy compared to those of the rumbly and similarly shaped We-Vibe Tango (see below). And the Ultra Power Bullet 6’s handle vibrates to an unpleasant degree.
