The 12 Best Floggers for Sensational Slaps ‘n Tickles
How Did I Test the Best Floggers
I believe it’s important to know exactly what you’re buying before you click “Add to Cart”. That’s why I rate each product (no matter the type) using a standardized rating system known as the “Bedbible Rating”. This cumulative score is calculated based on an individual item’s design, how easy it is to use, and the overall quality of the toy. After all, most people want an elegant, easy-to-use, high-quality sex toy! Looking at the “Bedbible Rating” will show you how the toy did overall, but you can also look at the individual scores right above the final rating. Below the rating, you’ll see another number: the “User Ratings” score. This score represents the average user experience. I calculate this using multiple reviews from trusted sources, allowing you to compare my professional opinion to that of the general consumer. Opinions vary, so I want you to make up your own mind on a toy before buying it!
Flogger Materials
You’ll have a fairly wide variety of materials to choose from when selecting a new flogger. Here are your options!
- Leather – Leather floggers can vary in stiffness, with some producing a sharp stinging sensation upon impact.
- Faux Leather – Perfect for vegans who like the look but hate the product, faux leather tends to provide more “bite” than a bruise.
- Silicone – Sterilizable and flexible, silicone is capable of inflicting sharp stinging pains and bruising.
- Suede – Flexible and soft, this material tends to provide more “sting” than “thud”.
- Elk Hide – Offering both a sting and a thud, this material is relatively soft, though heavier overall than suede.
- Metal – Hard, stingy, and capable of producing serious injury, this material is best left to more experienced users when utilized in a BDSM scenario. Can also be used for temperature play.
- Rope – Generally speaking, rope will feel very sharp if you’re on the receiving end, although you can also achieve a “thuddy” sensation if using a thick enough rope.
Things to Consider
Buying a BDSM flogger seems simple enough, but there are actually a couple of different factors that you’ll want to look into! Here are some things you should consider (and why they matter!).
- Number of Falls – If you’re after a “thuddy” sensation then you’ll want to opt for a flogger with more falls. For a “stingy” sensation, fewer falls are better. The final sensation is determined by the overall weight of the toy as well as the swing itself.
- Width of the Falls – Wider falls will weigh more, allowing the flogger to feel “thuddy” with less effort. “Stingy” sensations are still possible, but they will require a lot more force. Floggers with very thin falls won’t be able to feel “thuddy”, instead being limited to providing “stingy” sensations.
- Tips of the Falls – Many floggers simply have plain tips, but you can also buy ones with tip designs. Different tips will change how the flogger feels, often adding a certain sharpness to each swing.
- Braided – Braided floggers have braided falls. Since the falls are held together, this prevents them from accidentally spreading out when swung, ensuring the falls hit exactly where you’re aiming!
- Handle Size – It’s important that you can easily hold onto your new flogger. Aim for a handle that’s big enough to control but not so large that it’s hard to hold in your hand. Remember, different materials will feel differently in your hand so you’ll want to consider that as well!

This Saffron Faux Leather beaded flogger is a little unique: not only is it super lightweight, making it ideal for those with limited hand strength, but the braided fronds make for varied sensations during any lashing or punishment play.

This beaded flogger is certainly unique in its design and style, but there are some considerable downsides to this toy. Firstly, the flogger is super lightweight: this might be great if you have limited strength in your hands, but if you’re looking for a heavier “thudding” flogger, this isn’t the one you’re looking for. Secondly, some find that the fronds are so lightweight that the sensations are limited, whether it’s punishment play or light tickling. Overall, if you’re specifically looking for a braided flogger, this might be your pick. If not, one of the other floggers in our round-up is probably more suited to your needs.
