Can Using a Vibrator Too Much Be Harmful?
“It’s not exactly a traditional vibrator, but many women swear by it,” says Mioch. Its design and compact shape mean it can be used for any area that calls out for sucking, from the clit to the nipples. With 8 settings to try, you can actually pair the Tiani 3 with other Lelo toys to give you and your partner the same vibrating experience on different devices.
These are some of the least obtrusive vibrators on the market, because they can make it feel like you’re just touching your partner with your fingers, which happen to be vibrating. They’re typically not the most powerful, but their versatility and ease of use make up for that. The Wild Flower Enby 2 (currently unavailable) is a versatile vibrator that can be used both by people with penises and people with vulvas. Shaped like a miniature bicycle seat, the Enby 2 features a vibrating protrusion that expands out to a flexible, flat, triangular silicone surface that transmits the vibrations. We like the concept vibrators, and we found the vibrations to be plenty strong.
It’s a reliable vibrator with an unassuming yet modern look , and it’s never let me down. This toy is a clit sucker, meaning that it provides suction stimulation for pleasure as opposed to vibration. As I stated in my review of BuzzFeed’s Air Vibe, I’m not a huge fan of clit suckers.
Keep your pleasure indulgences simple with this well-reviewed streamlined G-spot vibrator from Lelo. The Gigi 2 features a simple and elegant design with a flattened tip that channels deep G-spot massage. Though research is still underway regarding the G-spot, we do know that for many women it’s a pleasure center—located about two inches into the vagina up towards the belly button—that feels incredible when stimulated.
While it’s on the pricey side, it has 20 different vibration patterns and 10 intensity levels (that’s more than most other vibes on this list). Plus, five hours of run time on a single charge is pretty impressive. This rechargeable vibe is similar to the Magic Wand in lots of ways—with a powerful motor, large head, and intuitive buttons—but has a sleeker package. It “feels like a little bit of luxury,” Shadeen Francis, LMFT, an AASECT-certified sex therapist, tells SELF. If you’re impressed by a sex toy that has multiple functions, you’ll love the Satisfyer Partner Multifun 3, which Wyatt rates as one of her favorite choices for couples — especially those who want to get creative with sex play.
She suggests reading the directions (yes, many sex toys have directions — read them!) and cleaning them after every use. It’s also crucial to communicate with your partner if they’re using the toy too roughly. The Duo 2 is a unique premium rabbit sex toy – a Pleasure Air clitoral stimulator and powerful G-Spot dual vibrator combined to create advanced, blended orgasms. Lawless also thinks there are other products that may have been designed with older adults specifically in mind, but that don’t necessarily market to them specifically.
Also neat is that half of the underbelly is ridged, for some added texture. He also independently reviews new products in the wellness space for Good Housekeeping, which he has done previously for Martha Stewart Living and Cooking Light. These testers evaluated aspects like connectivity, ease of use, adaptability and flexibility for personal use in the bedroom, and upkeep and cleaning aspects after intimacy. Reviews were coordinated over the span of a minimum of two weeks, if not longer.
All of this power does mean the Magic Wand Rechargeable is larger than most vibrators and weighs 600g and like many wands it is not waterproof. It’s designed to mimic oral sex – think the flutter of a tongue and the suction of a mouth, and achieves that thanks to its clitoral vacuum technology. With over 40 different pleasure combos, from eight levels of intensity and five different vibration patterns this vibrator is sure to blow your mind. From best-selling sex toy brand Dame, the budget-friendly Zee is a do-it-all bullet vibrator. “The design is simple, the aesthetic is minimalist, and there is a simple, single-button control for navigating the three different speeds,” says Finn.
Aside from the bells and whistles, the Chorus is just a really great vibrator. Its vibrating tip is perfect for pinpointing your clitoris or your nipples but also feels great against your G-spot, too. The Maude Vibrator charges up quickly and holds that charge for at least 2.5 hours.
Testers said the silicone head felt beautifully soft on their skin and the rechargeable battery lasted for an impressive three hours — so your alone time won’t be cut short. It’s on the larger side, but we would recommend making space for this one. Doing a little research to find the best vibrators and sex toys will ultimately help you to achieve longer, deeper and more intense orgasms.
