NIYA N5 Multi-Choice Massager — Test & Review

My Verdict
There are lots of things to like about the Niya N5, but it misses the mark for me in a couple of crucial ways. The vibrations, while fairly powerful, are just too buzzy to be really enjoyable, and the double-motor design just results in one basically-unusable motor. However, I did enjoy the flexible wings and the pocket-sized remote control! I don't see this becoming a regular toy for me, but those who are really into grinding may get way more use out of it!
Buy, if you...
- Don't mind buzzy vibrations
- Enjoy firm clitoral stimulation
- Are looking for a vibe to use specifically as a grinder and a stroker
Don't buy, if you...
- Prefer deep, rumbly vibrations
- Need a good amount of cushioning when you grind
- Want a grinder with lots of texture
About The NIYA N5 Multi-Choice Massager
The Niya N5, also known as the Niya Five, from Rocks Off is a lay-on vibrator with flexible 'wings' on either side and a solid body that contains two vibrating motors. One button on the toy itself allows you to control the 'top' motor, but you can also use the accompanying handheld remote to control each of the two motor separately. Each has 5 steady vibration speeds and 5 patterns to choose from. You can choose to sit or lie on top of the N5, or you can bend the wings together to create a stroker.
The vibrations of the NIYA N5 Multi-Choice Massager are quiet, very powerful, and somewhat buzzy
Pros
- ✅Can be used as a grinder or a stroker

Personal Experience
![My Personal Experiences with NIYA N5 Multi-Choice Massager](https://wp.bedbible.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/NIYA-N5-Personal-Experience-scaled.jpeg)
After my very middling experience with the Ruby Glow Blush, I was on the lookout for a grinding toy that I could really enjoy. I happened upon the Niya Five, and immediately fell in love with its soft cornflower blue color. The idea of the flexible wings that are designed to make the toy very versatile was intriguing to me, too. And honestly, I really wanted to see if Rocks Off, the brand behind both toys, could redeem themselves with this one.
Another Mixed Bag
The first time I used the Niya, I tried it over my clothes, sitting at my desk at home. Unfortunately, the clothes-on plan was abandoned pretty quickly, as it just wasn’t strong enough for me to feel very much. I placed it inside my underwear instead, and the wings bent down to make it a quite comfortable fit. I had to turn on the top motor to the highest setting to get the level of stimulation I wanted, and the bottom motor got turned off quickly once I realized that it added nothing to the experience. It felt nice to grind against it, and actually ended in a really great orgasm. However, I had to readjust my position so much to stop it moving away from my clit, even when it was anchored in my underwear! Another time I used it on the bed, and there was just as much readjustment involved. I found myself wishing that it was larger so that the hump in the middle would be easier to find. All that work did detract from the experience a little.Learn From Your Mistakes, Rocks Off!
One of my complaints with the Ruby Glow Blush was that the bottom motor was incredibly buzzy and unpleasant. It’s a similar story here. While the top motor is more powerful and a bit less buzzy, I ended up turning off the bottom motor almost immediately because it wasn’t enjoyable at all. Even at the lowest settings, it was so buzzy that it tickled. Another complaint I had about the Blush was that, even though the body was covered in silicone, it was still rock hard and could be painful to sit on. Again, the N5 also has this issue. While the wings are nice and soft, there is zero cushioning in the middle.Design
![NIYA N5 Multi-Choice Massager Design](https://wp.bedbible.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/NIYA-N5-Design-scaled.jpeg)
Like I mentioned before, I really am drawn to the gorgeous color of this toy. It's a very pretty blue with an almost-lavender tint to it. There definitely is more variety in sex toy colors these days, but shades like this that aren't the usual 'feminine' pink or purple are still more rare than I'd like. I also think that the general shape of the Niya is nice and simple, though I wish they had put a bit more thought into the base, as the flatness doesn't lend itself well to being a penis stroker.
Ease of Use
![NIYA N5 Multi-Choice Massager Ease of Use](https://wp.bedbible.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/NIYA-N5-Ease-of-Use-scaled.jpeg)
Let's start with the positives: the Niya and its remote are very easy to pair. I've had troubles in the past with remote controls, but I only had to read the instructions once to figure this one out. Simply press and hold any button on the remote for 3 seconds until the light starts to flash, then hold the button on the toy until it vibrates once — now they're paired. The problems arise when you actually sit on the toy and find out that it's extremely firm, which may be a big issue to anyone who's more sensitive down there. Another problem I noticed is that it's actually quite hard to bend the wings. The edges are very floppy, but once I tired to bend it closer to the middle, it did take a lot of grip strength.
Quality
![NIYA N5 Multi-Choice Massager Quality](https://wp.bedbible.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/NIYA-N5-Quality-scaled.jpeg)
Looking at the materials and the construction, this is a high-quality toy. The silicone is pretty soft (though not the softest or silkiest I've encountered), and it's built solidly. I've bent the wings this way and that, and it doesn't look anywhere near breaking. However, I wish they had invested more in quality motors that could produce stronger, more rumbly vibrations.
Price
![NIYA N5 Multi-Choice Massager Price](https://wp.bedbible.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/NIYA-N5-Price-scaled.jpeg)
At just under $100, the Niya N5 is not the most expensive vibrator out there, but it's not the cheapest either. I think the design and quality are great, but for this price, I would expect some stronger, more rumbly vibrations. You also don't receive a storage pouch with the toy, just a charging cable and the remote control. I do appreciate that the remote is rechargeable, though, as that's still quite rare in the world of sex toys.
Performance
![NIYA N5 Multi-Choice Massager Performance](https://wp.bedbible.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/NIYA-N5-Performance-scaled.jpeg)
How would I sum up the Niya N5's performance in one word? Buzzy. For that reason alone, I can't see it becoming a regular sex toy for me. However, I know that this matters much less to other people, so it could be a great option for some. In terms of battery function, I think it has a decent battery life and charging time, and it's even fairly quiet!
Packaging
![NIYA N5 Multi-Choice Massager Packaging](https://wp.bedbible.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/NIYA-N5-Packaging-scaled.jpeg)
I really like the Niya's packaging. It's definitely minimalistic, but it also feels refreshingly different from other, flashier sex toy packaging. There's no plastic involved, so it's totally recyclable. Plus, unless anyone took a close look at what's written on it, you wouldn't know that it's a sex toy at all.
Materials and care
![NIYA N5 Multi-Choice Massager Materials and care](https://wp.bedbible.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/NIYA-N5-Materials-Care-scaled.jpeg)
The Niya is made from 100% non-porous, body-safe silicone, and the remote is made of silicone and ABS plastic. Both are fully waterproof, which is a wonderful surprise! You can clean them using warm water and a mild, unscented soap, or you can use a specialty toy cleaner. Since this silicone loves to attract every bit of dust and lint it can find, I would recommend storing it away as soon as possible after cleaning, and giving it a quick rinse before use. Unfortunately, it doesn't come with a storage pouch, so you could use the box it comes in, or a larger fabric bag will do the job.
