How to Clean a Vibrator and Other Sex Toys Safely
We’re also fans of the clearly labeled buttons that make it easy to cycle through the Doxy’s eight settings. I’m also a fan of this pick’s simple controls, flexible neck, and lightweight design (you can read my full review of the Ultra Wand here). CNET staff — not advertisers, partners or business interests — determine how we review products and services. We like this silicone bullet from Lora DiCarlo, which has an extra cushy surface (made from medical-grade silicone) that warms up to slightly above body temperature—turning up the heat on your single (or couples) play session. The only vibrator on this list that has not been hands-on tested by the Mashable team is the Unbound Shimmy. We’ve decided to include it for its excellent features-to-price ratio, and because Unbound is a brand we trust and have hands-on tested with their Pep vibrator.
Other nice-to-haves include an intuitive button display, a travel lock, and a fully waterproof design (shower sex, anyone?). “If you’re looking for a versatile vibe that can be used on almost all body parts, the Tango X is the ideal option,” according to O’Reilly. It has seven vibration modes, eight intensity levels , and is super easy to use.
Sam, the founder of a spicy audio membership club called Best Kept Secret, recommends the TENGA GEO Coral for men (or folks with penises) who want to be discreet and still have a good time. It has an oversized, flat tip that sits snugly against your G-spot, and unlike other internal vibrators, this one isn’t so big that you’ll have a hard time getting it in or out. If using lube, I do suggest a water-based lubricant to ensure everything slips in smoothly.
Or put a towel or blanket between you and your toy, or keep your underwear on. (This is why I like the Limon so much; you simply squeeze harder for more speed, instead of having to fiddle with any buttons.) You’re looking for a setting that feels nice and moderate, not like it’s power-waxing your clitoris. I like it because it’s simple and intuitive to use, fits in the hand nicely, and packs a punch despite looking cutesy. It might look a little intimidating for a first-time toy, but many women will love the clitoris-cradling sensation it creates. Both the LELO Lily and JeJoue Mimi are pretty straightforward and uncomplicated, while still being high-quality. I suggest reading reviews online to get more perspectives about your potential purchase.
As a professional sex toy reviewer with nearly a decade of experience, one of the hills that I will die on is that Satisyfer is one of the most-overlooked brands in the game. Their vibrators are high-quality and not too expensive (the ideal combo). The entire FemmeFunn Ultra Wand is coated in buttery, body-safe silicone with a bumpy feel that’s not just for aesthetics. “Textures and sensations on the clit and vulva can bring novelty to the body and mind, which can be more exciting than experiencing the same smooth surface all the time,” Dr. Suwinyattichaiporn previously told SELF. If you’re ready to move on to more abstract dildos, there are plenty of options, as they come in many fantastical shapes and sizes, including ones with glitter, beads and different textures, to appeal to your desires.
“I really like the ones where the internal and external parts can be controlled separately,” sex writer and sex toy reviewer Amy Norton says. This sleek U-shaped vibrator is a game-changer for shared pleasure, according to our panel. The longer arm can be inserted into the vagina and used to stimulate both the G-spot and penis, while the outer arm vibrates against the clitoris. It has a motor at each end and nine increasingly powerful settings – from a gentle murmur to deep rumbling vibrations – for heightened pleasure during intercourse. The lightweight design and travel pouch make it a worthy companion for holidays, and it can be used in the bath or shower. The battery life (one hour) isn’t the longest, but this wouldn’t put our panel off using it time and time again.
If you do have this amazing little gadget on full power for 30 minutes on your clitoris—or whatever body part is your main avenue to climaxing—you’ll be inundated with orgasms. At just three inches in length, it’s about two-thirds the size of the original Vesper and Vesper 2. This sex toy does have a higher price than the original, but considering that my Vesper from 2014 is still working—it’s a worthy investment. You’ll also get to be part of a club of bold and fearless people who know that sometimes, the best place for your favorite vibrator is around your neck.
At $119, the toy is also on the lower end of the price range for remote sex toys. You can use it with a variety of cam platforms, including Chaturbate, Live Jasmin, MyFreeCams, BongaCams. This adaptability is unusual in any sex toy, but is especially useful in a love egg, which works as both a G-spot vibrator and a panty vibrator depending on your preference.
I set it up next to my bed with the help of my girlfriend, who knows more about cables than I do. It was a full moon in Scorpio, the sign of sex vibrator, so I felt extra enthusiastic about giving it a go. Gigi Engle is a certified sex coach, educator, and writer living in Chicago.
