Pros: Affordable; powerful for its price point; dial gives you more granular control over vibration intensity; raised bumps along shaft for vaginal wall stimulation; can be used clitorally or vaginally; waterproof; useable with any kind of lube
Cons: Loud; vibrations are relatively buzzy/surface-level; requires disposable batteries; no vibration patterns; no G-spot curve; raised bumps may feel like too much for some users (lube helps)
The Best Ultra-Powerful Vibrator: Doxy Die Cast
Materials: Aluminum, titanium, and silicone
How to Use: Plug it in, put it where you want it, and turn it on using the power button on the side. Adjust the speed with the other buttons.
While this aluminum-bodied vibrator is too heavy and bulky to earn the distinction of best wand, it’s inarguably one of the strongest vibes on the market. Anyone who just can’t get enough will love this one. Its rumbly vibrations are super powerful, so get prepared to be blown away by this jackhammer of a vibrator.
Pros: Extremely powerful; beautiful and elegant-looking; “double-weighted” head for a rumblier/deeper quality of vibration; LED-lighted buttons so you can find them more easily in the dark
Cons: Loud; heavy; requires a nearby power outlet; may be uncomfortably strong for some users
The Best Vibrator Attachment: Gee Whiz
Materials: Silicone
How to Use: Place the Gee Whiz onto the head of a standard-sized wand vibrator like the Magic Wand Rechargeable. (You may want to apply some water-based lube to the inside of the attachment before putting it on the wand, to make removal easier later on.) Position it wherever you want it and turn the wand on. When you’re done, remove the attachment from the wand to clean it.
Slip this silicone attachment onto a standard-sized wand (like the Magic Wand Rechargeable or Doxy Die Cast, above), and you can instantly harness all those powerful vibrations into a shape that targets the G-spot. This attachment is also ideal for people who like clitoral vibration but prefer it to be more focused than the broad head of a typical wand.
Pros: Turns your wand vibrator into a vibrator that can target either the clit, the G-spot, or both at the same time; easy to clean
Cons: Requires that you own a standard-sized wand vibrator to attach it to; expensive for an attachment; can’t be used with silicone-based lubes
The Best Thruster: Fun Factory Stronic G
Materials: Silicone and ABS plastic
Battery Life: About 45 minutes
How to Use: Apply some water-based lube to the toy and slip it inside your vagina, with the head facing up toward your G-spot. Turn it on with the “Fun” button and control the thrusting speed with the other two buttons.
Many G-spots crave fast, firm pressure that can get tiring to provide by hand. This innovative toy physically thrusts back and forth against that spot, freeing up your hands to do other things. Some may find it’s a little too thick, i.e. girthy, for them, but this offers a helluva good time, especially if you use it with a partner.
Pros: Intense G-spot stimulation; automatic, hands-free thrusting; your partner can use it on you while giving you oral sex, for some added G-spot stimulation that requires almost no effort/focus on their part; waterproof
Cons: May be too girthy for some users; short battery life and takes six to eight hours to recharge fully; may wiggle out of you if not anchored in place by a pillow (or similar) between your legs; thrusting is not as powerful as that of a full-size machine; can’t be used with silicone-based lubes
The Best Luxury Dildo: Njoy Eleven
Materials: Stainless steel
How to Use: Apply a lube of your choice to whichever end you prefer, and slide it inside you (vaginally or anally).
This toy is called the Eleven because it’s 11 inches of satisfying steel; that much metal comes at a price, but for fans of big and deep penetration, it’s well worth it. The double-ended design gives you more bang for your buck, so to speak—and maybe you’ll save on gym costs, because you can definitely skip “arm day” after ploughing somebody with this toy. “This is a beautiful stainless steel dildo that is great for playing with weight, texture, and temperature,”O’Reilly says.
Pros: Beautiful; great for intense G-spot stimulation; double-ended design gives you two different size/texture options; ridges on one side make it easier to hold onto when thrusting; will last forever; comes in a gift-ready storage box with satin lining
Cons: Heavy; expensive; unyieldingly firm; may be too big for some users
The Best Vaginal Plug: Hole Punch Fluke
Materials: Silicone
How to Use: Apply some water-based lube to the toy and insert it vaginally (or anally, if you prefer).
OK, so it might be one of the only vaginal plugs on the market, but still. This toy is great for applying pleasurable pressure against the G-spot while you do other stuff, like kissing, external fingering, or oral sex. Some of my most stellar orgasms have happened from my partner going down on me while I had this toy inside me.
Pros: Perfectly shaped for effortless G-spot stimulation; can be worn during non-penetrative sex (e.g. while receiving oral sex) to intensify those sensations; flared base makes it safe for either vaginal or anal use; harness-compatible for strap-on sex
Cons: Some users might find it uncomfortably girthy or too firm; can’t be used with silicone-based lubes
The Best Nipple Clamps: CalExotics Crystal Chain Clamps
Materials: Metal with silicone-coated tips
How to Use: Clip clamps onto nipples and use the screws at the side of each clamp to adjust their tightness. Leave on for about 15 minutes at most before removing.
These elegant clamps are adjustable, so they should suit nervous newbies and seasoned sadomasochists alike. Tug on the chain between them whenever you think the wearer needs a twinge of sexy pain. These clamps are easy to use, and they make a great entry point for those looking to get into a little pain play.
Pros: Silicone tips are more comfortable than metal and stay put better; chain can be tugged to momentarily intensify pain; adjustable tension for a custom fit; affordable; nickel-free
Cons: As with all clamps, can cause numbness, tingling, and health issues if left on for too long or used improperly; chain is non-removable so clamps can’t be used individually
The Best Strap-On Harness: SpareParts Joque
Materials: Spandex and polyester
How to Use: Step into the harness and adjust the straps to fit your body. Insert a dildo through the O-ring in the front. When you’re done, take the dildo out and launder the harness.
Whether pegging is a frequent part of your sex life or just an item on your bucket list, this harness is a fantastic choice. It’s comfortable, adjustable, fits a wide range of dildo sizes, and features a pocket that holds a small vibrator for clitoral stimulation for full sensory overload.
