This sex toy was voted best for solo pleasure by our expert

Now we have the Vesper 2—born out of a Kickstarter campaign in late 2022 and officially launched in the summer of 2023. How could Crave upgrade something that was already close to perfection? Well, let me just say if you’re a fan of the original Vesper, you’ll love this one too. Overall, I enjoyed seeing how Dame Products combined new technology to give users an updated experience with something many of us already love — masturbating the old-fashioned way, by hand.

Of course, there’s zero shame in sex or masturbation, but it’s perfectly normal, and even considerate, to want to keep things low-key. Have an open an honest conversation about why this is something that turns you on. It’s something for the two of you to try together in order to expand your sexual repertoire. Some clitoral vibes are actually made to be worn, like finger vibes, which makes the masturbation process easier, Hodder says. When choosing a vibrator , these hard, firm details must be considered. Electricity gave women home vibrators, but within a few decades, electricity almost took them away.

“Honestly, the quietest toys are going to be marketed as quiet,” says Gigi Engle, a certified sex and relationship psychotherapist and resident intimacy expert at dating app, 3Fun. “With that being said, you’re going to want to look for something smaller that has a smaller motor.” Engle explains that the smaller the motor, the quieter the toy. “You’re going to have better luck with palm, finger, and bullet vibrators. These toys are basically silent viberator, which can be a great choice,” Engle adds. Wands are super versatile, with long handles and large heads that make them easy to use in different solo or partnered positions.

Of course, should you decide to use an electric toothbrush as a vibrator, that toothbrush is now for that purpose only. Don’t use the same one for both cleaning your teeth and masturbating. Vibrators are surprisingly stealthy, covert creatures, and most of us have at least one object in our house that can double as a make-shift vibe. Now, there are some safety considerations when deciding which house-hold items to convert into vibrators. You don’t want to use anything with sharp edges or points on it, and you don’t want anything that can shatter, splinter, or break off. Now, with that last comment, I don’t mean to imply that masturbation is anything to be ashamed of.

The Dame Kip is a perfectly effective and elegant lipstick-style vibrator, but it is usually more expensive than the equally powerful Satisfyer Purple Pleasure. In an earlier version of this guide, we named the CalExotics Silver Bullet as our budget pick. Subsequently we concluded that the pricier but cordless Satisfyer Purple Pleasure offered stronger vibrations, was made of better-quality materials, and was more aesthetically pleasing. None could surpass the Magic Wand in terms of both time-tested power and value. The corded Doxy Number 3 is a smaller, quieter version of the Doxy Original. Although this sleek wand is both aesthetically pleasing and powerful, it costs more than our Magic Wand picks and the original Doxy.

Some women also find smaller toys easier to use or more comfortable than larger ones. The LELO Enigma Double Sonic is a dual-action vibrator that combines external and internal stimulation. Its clitoral stimulator uses SenSonic technology for contactless pleasure, while the insertable arm features DeepSonic waves to target the G-spot and A-spot. The toy boasts eight different vibration patterns, is fully waterproof, and offers up to 2 hours of playtime on a single charge. It offers 10 levels of intensity for the Pleasure Air Control and vibrations, as well as 10 vibration patterns to choose from if that’s your thing, plus buttons to increase and decrease power. The buttons are easy to figure out, but because of where they’re placed and how you have to hold the Enhance to ensure it’s snug against the clitoris, it’s easy to accidentally switch modes and intensities.

If you’re looking for a vibrator that can do it all, the Lovense Dolce should be at the top of your list. Whether you’re using it on your own or as a couple, the Fifty Shades of Grey Relentless Vibrations Remote Control Egg will make your next session even more intense. Now that we’ve popped your cherry, let’s dive headfirst into the world of interactive self-pleasure. Another feature that makes it an attractive out-of-town option is that it’s compact (smaller than your average pair of sunglasses) and has a locking mechanism to prevent embarrassing “where’s that coming from?

From the moment I slipped it on, I was in love and wore it all the time. This inventive cock ring comes with an optional « custom fit link » that allows you to expand its diameter to more comfortably fit a penis with more girth, which tend to get squeeze by one-size-fits-most rings. Like other We-Vibe cock rings, this one also packs a punch power-wise, is waterproof, and can be controlled from near or far using the We-Vibe app. With the Atom Plus and its dual motors, everyone gets to enjoy the wonderful vibes. While the top motor hits your partner’s clitoris (and your shaft), the bottom motor brings some rumble to your very own testicles and taint.

Equipped with a special gripped design that targets both your G-spot and clitoris, Lovense’s Dolce vibrator comes equipped with two motors for both areas. Testers loved that the toy’s adjustable base allowed them to use this toy hands-free, enabling the Dolce to sit firmly against the skin and fit snugly internally. Its petite size makes it a perfect option for play while away from home, alongside its discreet design profile.

Generally you don’t need to disinfect toys that only one person uses or that stay covered with condoms. Some nonporous, nonmotorized toys can go into the dishwasher without soap for steam sanitizing. Alternatively, you can boil most nonporous, nonmotorized toys in hot water.
