Industrial Vibrators

Don’t be deceived by its size – this petite vibrator stimulates the clitoris with a powerful tapping sensation, with the help of three speeds and six vibration patterns. Our in-house team of reviewers has collectively tried over 500 sex toys—the ones we featured here are amongst their tried-and-true faves. We also asked sex educators and therapists to share the products that have been the biggest game-changers in their clients’ and patients’ solo and partnered sex lives. The final list only includes options that earned two enthusiastic thumbs up. Our favorite palm vibe, the Le Wand Point, has a sleek stainless steel handle and an uber-soft ridged silicone tip. The heavier steel end allows the toy to provide more pressure than an all-silicone option, Finn previously told SELF.

Our panel loved the remote control that comes with this vibrating egg, giving your partner the chance to join in on the fun and adjust the settings. It even comes with an intelligent mode that imitates sex from foreplay to orgasm, so you don’t have to worry about changing the settings at all. Overall, it was a strong performer, with the majority of our the testers achieving a more intense orgasm. This Lovehoney rabbit can be set to your desired temperature between degrees, which our testers thought was a fun, unique feature.

The original rabbit hopped onto the scene in the mid-1990s, popularised by its appearance in the hit TV show Sex and the City, they’ve been top-sellers ever since. At $109, it’s oddly more expensive than the Vesper 2, but no one ever said luxury was cheap. It’s USB-C rechargeable (with a proprietary plug on one end), whisper-quiet, even on turbo mode vibrators, and comes in silver, rose gold, black, and 24-karat gold plating, with a matching adjustable 26-inch chain. At the time, the world had never seen anything like this vibrator necklace, and because of its originality, it garnered fans worldwide. Patented by Martin Engineering, Vibrolator® vibrators are the original ball vibrators and still provide a reliable and efficient solution to flow problems. “No matter what, for a number of toys, the best and easiest use involves at least a couple of drops of lubricant for comfort,” says Fulbright.

Emojibator is a sex toy company that aims to “celebrate pleasure.” Its products are bright, vibrant, and seemingly irreverent—at least on first glance. I first saw Emojibator’s products while scrolling through Urban Outfitter’s catalog last year. At the time, my gut response was to be alarmed by the cherry vibrator that flashed by. When given the opportunity to test the tiny vibrator, though, I leapt at the chance. Cleopatra’s innovative (alleged!) gourd situation emerged in 54 BC, paving the way for a slew of other female sexual pleasure inventions to come.

If you’re new to anal play, start with a smaller toy and use plenty of lube to avoid discomfort. “I love Uberlube, Good Clean Love, and Slippery Stuff,” shares Rosara Torrisi, PhD, a licensed clinical social worker and AASECT-certified sex therapist at the Long Island Institute of Sex Therapy in Syosset, New York. It’s incredibly important to keep your sex toys hygienic, and luckily it’s really simple to do so.

The sex tech industry has conditioned us to think of toys in terms of male and female, penis and vagina, but that’s reductive and inaccurate, contributing to a larger narrative about the relationship between genitals and gender. We opt to be as specific as possible and use anatomical terms to describe individual erogenous zones—and there are way more than just P and V. This step is optional, but lubricant can be helpful to reduce the friction that might cause discomfort. It’s important to note that the kind of lube you use depends on the material of your vibrator. For example , if the vibrator is made of silicone, a water-based lube will help preserve the material and avoid damaging it.
