New to Sex Toys? These Intuitive Vibrators Are Perfect for Beginners

After a few glasses of wine, I worked up the courage to do the asking. Of these three wands , the Doxy is the one that’s corded (though both Hitachi and Le Wand have corded options, too). While it almost seems archaic to have a wired toy, I see the appeal of using the Doxy. Hitachi’s vibration patterns range from a consistent vibration to a quick pulse to a rev-up-to-slow-down and repeat. The Doxy is the least expensive toy as it starts at just under $120, $15 less than Hitachi. One benefit of the Doxy, however, is that it’s highly customizable from the head to the collar to the buttons to the color of the wand itself.

Then we scoured the massive pool of sex toy options (and read tons of reviews) to find the ones that hit a variety of pleasure points, and that can be used alone or as a couple. According to sex therapists, prioritizing your pleasure offers benefits for yourself, and thus, your partner. With regular use, they can elevate your sexual experience no matter what you’re in the mood for. Their texture feels nice to the touch, and silicone is nonporous, making it safe and easy to clean. Another popular nonporous option is a toy made of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) plastic.

Add this little gem to your toy collection and let the good times roll. With 12 intense power and vibration settings, there’s sure to be a setting that gets you off. And if that’s not enough, the vibrator is also waterproof for shower play alone or with a partner. Some of the household sex toys we recommend here aren’t specifically designed for skin contact (think candles, vegetables, and ice).

Boasting over 5000 reviews and an average star rating of 4.7, this toy is a true crowd pleaser and for good reason. A small nitpick would be that the Tenga was a little tough to clean since the silicone around the egg puckers a bit. I found myself having to get in there with a Q-tip to ensure that everything was fully clean — although, I will admit I’m a little obsessive when it comes to toy cleanliness. The finger tether is removable viberator, so you can slip it on and off, depending on how you use it. And even when the tether is off, the vibe stays put, thanks to a squishy finger notch that doesn’t vibrate your fingers numb.

Available in silver and rose gold, the pendant can be switched on via a hidden button on its side and it touts surprisingly strong vibrations for its short profile. I had been messing around with the buttons for probably less than two minutes and didn’t get very far into exploring sensations when it was clear I was on the verge of an orgasm and just rolled with it. It was as close to almost instantaneous as I’ve ever gotten in my life. I’m still running into occasional issues with the buttons; I need to change how I grip it apparently, since I naturally hold it tighter as I get closer to climax.

This incredibly sophisticated device promised to take me on a journey of discovery, targeting not just one or two, but three erogenous zones (!) simultaneously. With its innovative SenSonic and DeepSonic technologies, I was eager to see if it could live up to the hype and deliver the mind-blowing orgasms it claimed. When pleasure product companies started making dildos and other toys shaped like tentacles, unicorn horns, candy canes, and even chess pieces, I was tickled.

This vibrator has a forked tip and a powerful motor in each tip, which Hodder says guarantees intense vibration power and offers a unique way to stimulate the clitoris without having to make direct contact. “Simply position the clitoris between each tip and try pinching or squeezing them together, almost like a clit sandwich,” Hodder says (Jimmy Jane, $59). Rest assured there’s a good reason for their various curves and fork-like apparatus.

If clitoral stimulation works best for you, then start with one of our best bullet vibrators. These come in a variety of shapes and sizes, from discreet bullets that mimic fingertip touch to magic wands that tend to be more powerful and have a longer-lasting battery. “[The handle] has a bit of a curve, so it can get around a bigger body more easily,” she says. Other perks include its extra-large head, waterproof design, and 50 total settings (when you combine its five speeds and 10 vibration patterns).

When you want a sensation to build, maintain the seal in that position. Here are some tips for getting started with suction and air pulse vibes. This sleek, elegant vibrator is a favorite of mine when I’m traveling because it has a travel-lock function and conveniently charges via USB-A ports or adaptors. Whether I’m tossing it into a purse, a pocket, or a suitcase, I’m always glad I brought it along.
