6 Best Silent Vibrators
It can be difficult to find a silent vibrator that will keep your pleasure private AND be powerful enough to get you off. As someone who has tried a lot of different types of vibrators from different brands, I know which ones aren’t lying when advertising “whisper-quiet motors” and which ones are! To make things easier, I’ve compiled the best silent vibrators that we’ve tested here at Bedbible. I’ve included decibel measurements as well as the main pros and cons of each product.

Decibel Measurements
Here is a table with the decibel measurements of each vibrator in this review. We’ve measured their noise levels on the lowest settings as well as the highest settings.
Keep in mind that the products themselves may sound different when in use. The noise levels are always highly dependent on how tightly you grip the products or how much contact they make with the body. Whether they are being used internally or externally will also have an effect on the noise level.

| LELO Dot Travel | 35 dB | 49 dB |
| We-Vibe Nova 2 | 31-34 dB | 43 dB |
| Fun Factory Big Boss | 38 dB | 45 dB |
| Lovense Ferri | 30 dB | 52 dB |

Why I Chose It
I’ve picked out the LELO MIA 3 as the Test Winner in this review because the power to volume ratio is out of this world! Now, while Catherine tested this one out for us, I’ve personally had the pleasure of testing out the LELO MIA 2 myself. It is, to this day, THE most silent vibrator I have every used.
Although, where the previous version of this bullet vibe lacked in power what it offered in discretion (in my opinion, at least), the new and improved LELO MIA offers even more intensity! Even then, the sensation is still deep and rumbly.
“The Lelo Mia 3 packs a big punch in a tiny vibe! […] I recommend this to anyone looking for something extremely discreet, and also extremely powerful.”
One of my favorite features of the LELO MIA 2 also happens to be Catherine’s favorite feature of the LELO MIA 3: “The top of the vibrator twists off, just like a lipstick tube, to reveal a built-in USB that will plug into any USB charger.” This is just so incredibly practical, especially for such a travel-friendly product.
One small con is that the buttons aren’t very raised and can be tricky to find in the dark when things get all lubed up and slippery.

Why I Chose It
I picked out the LELO DOT Travel as the Runner-Up because it’s another discreet option that doesn’t force you to compromise of intensity or pleasure. I’ve tried the LELO DOT Cruise myself, and this silent vibrator takes clitoral stimulation to a whole new level!
Our tester, Karolina, was a bit skeptical about it since clitoral vibrators aren’t her usual go-to. She was blown away by how unique the sensations were!
“I had the best time using the very tip to stimulate different parts of my vulva and even my clitoris. […] The precise stimulation is such a fun thing — every time I use the vibe, I can stimulate different points of the clit, which gives me that sense of novelty I crave so much.”
Karolina also found that the LELO DOT Travel was the perfect shape and size for erogenous zone exploration. With her partner she explored all the different body parts that could enjoy this unique oscillating sensation.
The fact that it was quiet as well, made it easier to use during partnered sex since it was so distracting. Although, keep in mind that it isn’t super quiet on the higher settings.

Why I Chose It
The PinkCherry Show Me the Bunny Vibe is my top pick for those looking for a good intersection between quality and price. The vibrations are more buzzy than rumbly (keep that in mind if you much prefer rumbly vibrations) but they are strong!
Our tester, Jess, was delighted to find the perfect match in this vibrator after having tried other rabbit vibrators that didn’t quite hit the spot.
“The first time I used it I put it in, making sure that the ears were placed around the outside of my clit. I was able to turn both vibration modes on and use it hands free with my legs pressed closed. It was SOOOOO good! […] I usually would grab a dildo when I wanted to play, but this bunny vibe has now become the one I grab every time!”
Now, is this a silent vibrator? Well, Jess found “the sound level of the vibe is not too loud at all. It is a little louder on the shaft swirling than the bunny ears when they vibrate, but it isn’t a huge deal.”

Why I Chose It
The We-Vibe Nova 2 is one of the best rabbit vibrators out there. It is in fact our tester, Kasia, all-time favorite sex toy! She is a big fan of vibrations and the We-Vibe Nova 2 allows her to enjoy powerful and rumbly vibrations both internally and externally. The wide surface areas on both ends create direct contact at all times.
One of the best things about the We-Vibe Nova 2 is the power to sound ratio. It delivers insanely strong and rumbly vibrations but stays quiet and “whisper-like” on most of the settings. This is definitely the kind of vibrator that’s safe to use in a house where other people live. Using this under the covers will allow you to enjoy powerful vibes without anyone suspecting a thing!
My favorite thing about this silent rabbit vibrator is the adjustable shaft. Inflexible rabbit vibrators have never been fully compatible with my body or anatomy but I know how much of a difference it can make to try an adjustable rabbit vibrator. When I tried the Je Joue Hera Flex, for example, my perception of rabbit vibrators changed. The We-Vibe Nova 2 offers the same kind of customizable pleasure.

Why I Chose It
As far as large vibrating dildos go, the Fun Factory Big Boss is a winner. With its pronounced head, girthy shaft and rumbly vibes, it’s sure to please those who crave a thick toy. The best part is that this big boy is surprisingly discreet and silent. Again, we’re dealing with a great power to sound ratio here as well! Given that you’ll mostly be using it internally, this makes it even more silent.
Our tester, Jess, was a bit taken aback by how girthy this vibrator was at first but was eventually put at ease when she “realized how flexible and comfortable the toy was.” In terms of design, she loved how “the looped handle is perfect for keeping a solid grip on the toy during play, and the texture and flexibility is perfect for finding different angles and speeds of play.”
On thing to know about the Fun Factory Big Boss is that the silicone feels a bit rough and slightly textured. That’s because Fun Factory actually sands down their silicone toys for hygiene reasons. The material is still 100% body-safe and non-porous, but may require a generous amount of water-based lube to glide smoothly.

Why I Chose It
The Lovense Ferri is a great option for anyone who loves to play around in public but needs something super silent to go undetected. This is a high quality panty vibrator that stays surprisingly quiet on even the higher settings.
Now, this is one of the only products in the review that actually doesn’t have an amazing power to sound ratio. Yes, it is quiet but mostly because the vibrations stay pretty subtle in sensation as well. So be aware that this silent vibrator is more suited for someone who prefers soft and sensual vibes for their naughty outings. For something with a bit more power, I recommend the We-Vibe Moxie+ (although it will be less discreet).
The magnetic clip will help the vibrator stay pretty securely in place when walking around with it. However, our tester, Jen, used it primarily while wearing a strap-on. This does mean that the clip “can slide around from the thrusting.”
As far as the performance goes, the app controls really elevate the experience and give you a lot more options for spicing up your play time. Jen noted that for solo play “you definitely need to hold the vibrator while masturbating if you need any pressure. However, when applying pressure, the vibration strength is very nice.”

What Makes a Vibrator Silent?
There are a couple of different ways a vibrator can be silent, the most basic being that it simply has weak vibrations!
While this isn’t an issue you’ll encounter with any of the toys listed above, simply being underpowered is a common reason for vibrators to be silent.
How the device is engineered also plays a big role in the amount of noise it produces.
For example, a g-spot vibrator that operates internally rather than externally will nearly always be quieter than a big wand vibrator.
The materials used are just as important as the design itself: ABS plastic and other hard materials tend to produce more noise than sound-absorbing materials like silicone.
Some vibrators even take advantage of proprietary tech (like Smart Silence), to help them keep the noise to a minimum.
How to Make a Vibrator Quieter
Perhaps you’re living with family or roommates and you don’t want them listening in on your self-pleasure sessions. Maybe you enjoy using toys in public and want to keep it on the down-low.
Whatever your reasons, here are some quick tips to making your vibrator even more quiet…
Use it Under the Covers
This is a classic tip, but it really does work.
If you’re using your vibrator in bed, you can pull the blanket or duvet over you to muffle the sounds of the motor while you use it.
This won’t dampen the noise completely, but it is often enough to make it silent enough so it’s not audible through your walls or door.
Get an Insertable Vibrator
Your body is also a great muffler of noise!
Using an insertable vibrator, whether that’s vaginal or anal, is likely to be quieter than an external vibrator.
Again, it may not make your vibrator totally silent, especially if it has a particularly loud motor, but it can help.
If you want to use it anally, make sure that it has an anal-safe flared base so it doesn’t go too far up there!
Use it On the Lower Settings
Vibrator motors are usually quieter on their lower intensity settings, so it can be good to stick to these if you’re trying to be discreet.
Additionally, steady vibration patterns can sometimes draw less attention than patterns.
Play Some Music or Switch on the TV
If all else fails, you can drown out the noise of your vibrator with some other sounds!
Play your favorite playlist, or turn on the TV to mask the sounds of the motor, and no one will be the wiser.
Plus, depending on what you’re playing, this can also help get you in the mood!
The Most Common Features of Great Silent Vibrators
If you’re shopping around for your perfect silent vibrator match, it can be a good idea to have some key features in mind to guide your search.
Here are seven things to look for in a silent vibrator that indicate that it’s a quality toy you’ll love.
Of course, not every great vibe will have everything here, but it can certainly help you weed out the bad ones!
Whisper-Quiet Motors
This might go without saying, but a silent vibrator needs a quiet motor!
Many vibrators are marketed as having ‘whisper-quiet’ motors, but I wouldn’t recommend blindly trusting these claims.
Instead, read the user reviews (and reviews from professional reviewers like Bedbible!) and see what they have to say about how loud it really is.
Controls that Make Sense!
Not all sex toys are created equal, and nowhere is that more apparent than in their controls.
Some silent vibrators are designed with user experience in mind, and have easy and intuitive controls, while others… well, they leave you wondering if anyone actually tried them out before they started selling them.
How simple of controls you look for will depend, of course, on how tech-savvy you are, and your level of mobility.
Body-Safe Materials
I always recommend sticking to vibrators made from non-porous, body-safe materials.
These are usually silicone and ABS plastic, though you could find some made of steel or glass, too.
Avoid PVC, TPE, jelly, rubber and other soft plastics.
These are porous, meaning that have microscopic holes on their surface that harbor germs and dirt that cannot be fully cleaned out. Using these materials without a condom could lead to infections or uncomfortable pH imbalances!
A Good Range of Settings
When you’re on the lookout for a silent vibrator, make sure to pay attention to how many functions it has.
Some people prefer lots of vibrations speeds or patterns, while others are content with fewer (less scrolling through settings!).
Interactivity
If you’re looking for a silent sex toy to use with a partner, it could be worth looking for an app-controlled vibrator, or a set of toys that can interact with each other!
Brands like Lovense, We-Vibe and Kiiroo are known for making fantastic sex toys that can be connected to an app via Bluetooth. This allows you to control them with your phone, hand over control to a partner anywhere in the world, and even control each other’s toys!
Rechargeable Batteries
Something so small like being able to recharge your quiet vibrator may not seem so important, but it can make a whole lot of difference to the quality of your experience.
Rechargeable vibrators are often more powerful and more rumbly than their battery-powered counterparts. Plus, they’re just so much convenient!
Useful Accessories
And finally, take a short while to check what other extras any silent vibrator comes with!
For example, a storage bag or box can keep your vibe safe, clean and hidden away; a sachet of lube can be nice if you don’t have your own; and an AC adaptor is almost always a welcome (but rare) addition to any sex toy box.
