15 Best Sex Toys of 2024
This was another case where it felt like the toy’s function was a little at the mercy of its design. Much like the Cherry, if you’re looking for something that offers a lot of different options, you won’t get bored with the Strawberry, either. There are eight vibration patterns that can be combined with eight suction settings, so you can get a pretty wild range and combination of experiences. Sex toys are one of those things that should be fun to engage with—fun is, for the most part, the point!
The LELO Gigi 2 is made of super-smooth silicone and is completely waterproof (up to one meter). It does take a while to fully charge — roughly two hours — but it holds its charge for that long, as well. It comes with its own little carrying case, too, which is a small dome cover that pops right on top of the egg dish. I love this because it means that I can keep the vibrator out while it’s charging and no one will be the wiser.
As the partner of a person with a penis (try saying that five times fast!), this toy is one of my absolute faves on this list, because of how well it combines with blowjobs and handjobs. You can use the toy around the base of a dick while you or your partner stimulates the rest of it, adding some intensity into an already-intense experience. It’s a smart pick for anyone who travels a lot, too, because it’s much more compact than a lot of other options on this list, and even has a travel lock function so it won’t go berserk in your suitcase mid-trek.
With an external arm to keep it in place, this internal vibrator can tease your G-spot for up to 2 hours on its USB charge. Vibrator use is really quite common, with a study out of the Center for Sexual Health Promotion at Indiana University finding that a little more than 50 percent of women use them. While vibes are pretty easy to master, there are a few factors that could possibly contribute to potential harm (namely, operating them on or with our genitals) vibrators, and we know that we definitely do not want to harm our genitals. With these considerations in mind, explore a variety of vibrators suited to your preferences and desires. Remember that the ultimate choice depends on your individual needs and comfort level. By arming yourself with knowledge and understanding, you can confidently select a vibrator that enhances your public play experiences.
It’s not likely that one particular pattern will blow your mind more than the others, but some women may find that they have decently strong preferences. If you feel a little baffled about all the options, just stick with the constant vibration pattern. Smile Makers The Firefighter Intense Clitoral Vibrator is a uniquely-shaped clitoral vibrator extending the vibration to the labia for a broader stimulation.
In fact, there are a bunch of different kinds of vibrators out there—and it’s sensible to understand each kind before selecting one (or a few) to spend money on. According to their website, the Doxy Original Massager is 30 percent more powerful than Hitachi’s wand. Its large head and buttons make it easy to maneuver and change settings. I can’t test for whether the Doxy is exactly 30 percent more powerful, but it nonetheless had the same “foolproof orgasm” vibes — literally and figuratively — as other wands. Yes, the Womanizer is a suction toy, meaning it’s not this writer’s favorite.
You may want to do some research to pick a vibrator that will satisfy your needs, although many vibrators have a variety of possible uses and vibration strength settings. The Ruby Glow Massager contours to your body—one side has raised ridges that you can grind your vulva against, while the other features a smooth nub that targets your perineum. Each side has its own motor, so “you can either rock back and forth along the toy, or simply sit down on it and let the vibrations do all the leg work,” Finn tells SELF. The Ballerina stays easy to maneuver in any position and can even rest between two bodies without you holding it there. It has 12 different settings, two simple buttons, and is quiet (even at its strongest). I try to keep things simple and stick with vibrators that are USB rechargeable either with USB-A or USB-C.
She recommends wrapping a bullet in a soft fabric to help spread the sensation out even further. Here’s a panty vibrator that clips into a pair of underwear with a magnet, so you or a partner can wear it in public without anyone knowing. It’s waterproof, has multiple vibration patterns, and is remote- or app-controllable. Whether you’re in the mood for internal penetration or external stimulation, this waterproof multitasking toy can do both. It has a vibrating dildo at one end and a rose at the other that simulates tongue-licking. What’s more, it’s totally customizable with nine different settings for vibrating and licking.
Dr. Jessica Shepherd, an OB-GYN, says vibrators are not harmful to the genital area if used correctly. However, she notes that if they’re used too aggressively or shared between folks without proper cleaning, there is potential for doing harm. It was loud—a lot louder than I remembered it being when I used it alone. Once we actually started getting into it, with the vibrator squished between us, you couldn’t hear it quite as much. Now that I wasn’t so distracted by all that buzzing , I turned my attention to, ya know, orgasming.
It’s almost enough to make you think that older people have lost their interest in sex, which is a generalization that’s simply not true. Regardless of my experience, I applaud SnailVibe for creating an innovative toy with the trimmings — like multiple motors and the case. The vibrator is 9.4 inches long in total (a bit shorter than an average forearm), and has an insertable length of 1.4 to 5.5 inches, the latter of which is about the average penis size. Increase the intensity by pressing the + button, and switch up the kind of vibration by pressing the S button.
