The SnailVibe is innovative, but left me feeling sluggish
It really packs a punch—twice the power of its original model , to be exact. It has 12 vibration patterns and multiple speeds, slides easily onto any finger, has an easy-to-use control interface, and can work for up to two whopping hours from a single AAA battery, according to the brand. Currently on sale for less than $25, this vibe proves that quality toys don’t have to be a splurge. With seven inches of insertable length, it features three speeds and four patterns, and the rounded tip and rippled shaft provide additional sensation. Orgasms are tied to all sorts of positive health outcomes, including more restful night’s sleep (thanks, prolactin) and pain relief (thanks to you, too, endorphins). Orgasms have more benefits than we currently even know, and if most people with clitorises are only having orgasms when their clits are stimulated, it stands to reason that we’re going to turn to tools (like vibrators) to help out.
It’s both a clitoral and internal stimulator and is a source of “pleasure for both partners,” according to one tester. Grinding mimics the “humping” motion that many people learn to masturbate with (say, against a pillow), as well as the thrusting motions that people with penises do during penetrative sex. Toys elevate the sensation of grinding by adding vibration, texture, or other stimulating features. The noisy, room-shaking sex toys of years past have graduated to sleek, high-quality, and near-silent designs that don’t sacrifice power for discretion. From suction vibrators that are all about the clit, to precise G-spot vibrators, to backdoor action anal vibrators, there are a ton of whisper-quiet vibrators that get you there without waking up the whole house. Cue the Greek chorus, this is the ultimate trifecta of suction sex toys.
Unfortunately, I didn’t get to try Vesper 2 with my penis-wielding partner viberator, but that’s fine. Every time I wore it, I was expressing my sexuality in a way that would have had me burned at the stake in 17th-century Salem. Because the Vesper 2 makes me feel the same way, it’s not something I even wanted to share with my partner. I wanted the discovery, the pleasure, and the orgasms to be on my terms with my brand-new vibrator necklace—a sentiment, I’m sure, some people will understand once they get their hands on Vesper 2. As you might expect, the sex toy company Fun Factory is known for toys that look (and are) fun.
The idea is that you can put it in between your labia so it has direct access to your clitoris, use its tiny arms to keep it there, then continue sans hands. For $105, it’s supposed to make that elusive penis-in-vagina orgasm more attainable without getting in the way of any actual sex-having. While she was having great partnered sex, many of her peers were not. She has since written two more books about sexual pleasure for older adults and has reviewed over 100 sex toys from the senior perspective.
In addition, it holds its charge for up to 6 hours and can sync to music for unlimited vibration patterns. With a price tag of $69 (currently on sale for $59), the Ambi remote control bullet vibrator has features commonly found in higher-end toys. It keeps its charge for up to 4 hours, has 30 levels/pattern combinations, and is water-resistant. In this post, we’ll share the 17 best remote control vibrators you can use to take your encounters to the next level. As Shepherd mentions, care must be taken to avoid preventable problems.
Your sexual health is paramount, so sexual self-care is just as essential as all other forms of self-care—don’t short-change yourself in this area. There’s never a bad time to invest in a product that won’t just “get you there,” so to speak, but allows you to explore and experiment with different sensations. The Magic Flamingo is a versatile vibrator designed for discreet pleasure in public settings.
Exploring public play with vibrators can be an exhilarating experience for couples seeking to spice up their intimate moments. However, it requires careful planning and consideration to ensure a thrilling yet discreet encounter. In this guide, we’ll delve into essential tips and insights gathered from seasoned players to enhance your public play adventures. The first vibrators were marketed for use by doctors and spas, but in the 1900s, ads began appearing as cure-alls in magazines geared toward women. American Vibrator Company was even so bold as to state their product “can be used by yourself in the privacy of dressing room or boudoir…” They even claimed it would keep a woman young. Being able to really focus is a huge part of actually my having an orgasm during sex.
While companies seem to invent interesting new vibrator shapes every year, there are a few key vibrator categories that are classics for a reason—why reinvent the wheel (or the wand)? We like that the vibrations feel stronger and more rumbly when compared with our other Magic Wand picks’, and that this new version is easier to clean (because it can be run under a faucet). At the end of this experiment, we discovered that the lube had an effect on every single toy.
If you need (or want) a lot of stimulation to get off, a great wand is your best bet, whether it’s rechargeable or plugs into the wall.

She/they are passionate about normalizing healthy discussions of sexuality in everyday life. The Evolved Tongue Tied is our favorite of the “tongue” vibrators we’ve tested. While they’re not as pinpointed as those from the Lelo Dot, we did find that this vibrator’s flickering tongue (measuring about 1 inch long and 0.25 inches wide at the tip) offers powerful, focused sensations.
