7 Hands-Free Sex Toys Thatll Let You Lie Back and Enjoy the Ride

Spray-on toy cleanser can be useful for toys that you cannot submerge. The vibrations are intense and rumbly; we found the level 5 setting to be akin to level 2 on our top pick, the Magic Wand Rechargeable. The Purple Pleasure may not satisfy you if you’re accustomed to reaching orgasm at the Magic Wand’s highest levels, but it packs quite a punch for its small size, and our testers easily achieved orgasm while using it. This toy is an excellent option for those who are fans of the Magic Wand Original and wish to upgrade to a silicone head and more vibration settings but don’t mind keeping the cord. The Plus version typically costs only $10 more than the Original model.

“You can use a wand during masturbation or partnered play for direct and targeted stimulation of the genitals,” Frye-Nekrasova says. “You can also use wands as foreplay of partner play by giving each other full-body massages with wands to fully relax and prep for fun together.” We named this small but mighty vibrator the best sex toy for travel, but it’s also an elite clitoral vibrator on its own vibrator, offering targeted vibrations as well as a lovely rumbly sensation across the vulval. Waterproof and made with medical-grade silicone, the tiny vibrator has a ridge to target the clit, and there are five intensities and patterns so you can customize the experience exactly how you’d like it. “Dame has really good products,” adds Gigi Engle, certified sex and relationships psychotherapist and resident sex expert at SexToysUK. “They’re reliable and high-quality.”It’s fully waterproof, so there are no limits to where you can bring this thing (and it also has a convenient travel-lock feature).

Stimulating your clitoris is a gateway to mind-blowing orgasms, but there is no one method that fits all, and that’s crucial to remember before you invest in a vibrator. Necessity being the mother of invention, physicians began experimenting with mechanical substitutes for their hands. They tried a number of genital massage contraptions, among them water-driven gadgets (the forerunners of today’s shower massage devices), and pumping, steam-driven dildos. But the machines were cumbersome, messy, often unreliable, and sometimes dangerous. By the early 19th century, physician-assisted paroxysm was firmly entrenched in Europe and the U.S., and proved a financial godsend for many doctors.

Own your journey, embrace your power, and indulge in self-care like never before. The We-Vibe Rave 2 is app-controlled, which means you — and mostly importantly, your partner — controls the fun from a smart device. It has 10 built-in modes, but with the app you can custom the vibration patterns and control the device from anywhere. Perfect if one of you is away but you want to keep the bedroom fun going. Adding to that discreet factor is the Supersex’s ultra-quiet yet powerful vibration, and a compact frame that’s fully waterproof for fun shower play. There’s no one-size-fits-all beginner vibrator, because vibrators do all kinds of different things and all of our tastes are different.

“Nearly all STIs are capable of being transmitted through sex toys, especially toys that are inserted into the body or make mucosal contact,” Susan Bard, a New York City-based dermatologist, affirmed. We loved the strong vibrations and easy-to-hold loop handle on the brand’s White Temptation but found the loaf-like shape to be awkward to use, preferring the tapered silhouette of the Purple Pleasure. The Beso Plus was our least favorite of the clitoral suction/G-spot dual-stimulator vibrators we’ve tried. Our tester found the “mouth” of the toy to be uncomfortably firm and irritating. If you wish to use a lubricant with your toy (as experts often recommend), keep in mind that only water-based lube is safe to use with all types of toys. Oil-based lubricants are not just unsafe for use with condoms but can also interact badly with toys made of soft plastic or rubber, causing the devices to disintegrate or to leach chemicals (PDF).

The trade-off is that it’s $50 more expensive , and it lacks the quick on/off switch of the Magic Wand Rechargeable. Level 10 on the Le Wand Original does not offer significantly more intensity than level 4 on the Magic Wand Rechargeable, and this toy’s vibrations feel somewhat less rumbly. Although this model is an excellent wand vibrator, we don’t recommend it over our top pick unless color options are important to you. Like the Magic Wand Rechargeable, the Le Wand Original is covered by a one-year warranty. The Dame Com wand vibrator has an appealing ergonomic shape (it curves toward the body), as well as an easy-to-clean all-silicone body.
