Each vibe from this luxury company is made with a powerful motor and body-safe silicone.
The brands take on the wand vibrator, the Com, is as ergonomic as can be.
It has five intensities and patterns and is surprisingly quiet for its size.
Time to earn those caps and gowns.
But what sets it apart are its two motors, one in the body and one in the tip.
The multilayered stimulation is super intense and feels amazing, one Amazon reviewer wrote.
Plus they come in a compact, portable package.
Its curved just enough to make contact with your clitoris too.
The dual-ended head helps pinpoint smaller or larger areas around your clitoris and vulva.
Its alsoremote-controllable, making it a great pick for long-distance lovers.
(Usually, theyre shaped to resemble rabbit ears, which is how the vibrator got its name.)
The curved piece constantly targets your clitoris.
Its great for anyone who knows they enjoy both externalandinternal stimulation, she says.
This includes jewelry vibrators, panty vibrators, and some butt plugs.
Generally, these are great for hands-free play, as well as discreet public sex.
You could wear it while masturbating, but its also a great addition to vaginal intercourse with a partner.
Or slip it undera strap-on harnessfor a little extra stimulation.
Would definitely recommend, one wrote.
I love how quiet and sleek it is, she says.
With its single button, you’ve got the option to cycle between four speeds and pinpointed sensations.
Wear it during foreplay, the main event, or even out and aboutthe options are basically endless.
Different vibration patterns suit every mood.
Well worth the investment.
She loves its unique shape, which is similar to a bar of soap (but smaller).
And its submersible in water, she adds.
Another delightful option for solo play during bath time.
Its also flexible to fit your (or your partners) anatomy.
I love its size and unique grip.
What could be scary about that?
In particular, Nekrasova suggests the We-Vibe Bond.
Its remote controlled, app-compatible, and waterproof, she says.
Plus, it has 10 different parameters, allowing you the opportunity to customize your vibrations to your preferences.
Its whisper quiet, waterproof, and boasts an impressive 14 prefs.
The smart silence feature, which puts the toy on standby mode when it isnt touching skin.
I like that it is so quiet and easy to use!
one We-Vibe reviewer wrote.
From beginners to experiencedmind blowing!
Its small, with a distinct diamond design that makes it easy to insert.
Like all We-Vibe toys, it can be controlled via an app on your smartphone or a remote control.
Like all high-quality butt plugs, this one has a tapered end for safety and ease of use.
It also comes in five sizes and has a variety of speeds to choose from.
Vibrating beads, like these from FemmeFunn, add a little buzz to take things to the next level.
The connector manages to be flexible but firm all at once, allowing for more comfortable anal play.
Material
Dont hate the messenger, but not all massagers are made with your health in mind.
Some sex toys are made from materials that could harm your body, Nekrasova says.
Avoid vibrators made with porous materials, like rubber, vinyl, and PVC, she says.
Non-porous materials can be quickly disinfected with soap and warm water or a sex toy cleaner.

Not quite sure which style or shape to choose?
Spend some time noodling on how you actually want to use the toy, Wright suggests.
Do you want to use it externally, internally, or both?
Which body part(s) are you looking to stimulate?
Meanwhile, if you enjoy anal stimulation, a vibrating butt plug orprostate massagermay be more up your alley.
More experienced users may look for a vibrator that helps them explore something new , she adds.
Vibration
The sensation a vibrator provides may feel either buzzy or rumbly.
Usually, bigger toys have larger motors, which creates a more rumbly vibration, says Nekrasova.
Rumbly vibes, like wands, create powerful sensations that extend deep into the body, she adds.
Other features
Some vibrators boast a range of additional features that can help you choose between top contenders.
There areplentyof pleasure products available for under $50, according to Nekrasova.
More expensive, luxury sex toys are actually not always better than budget-friendly options, she says.
