The 12 Best Vibrators

Why I Chose It

I personally had the (mindblowing) pleasure of testing out the We-Vibe Tango X, and let me tell you that, three years later, it’s still my favorite sex toy of all time. The sheer rumbliness of the vibes that come out of this tiny toy are astounding, and I rarely need to venture beyond the first three or four settings before it’s got me where I want to go.

To give you a very quick lesson on rumbly vs buzzy vibrations, the reason that rumbly vibes feel the way they do is because they are low-frequency. Think of the bass vs treble in music — the way that you can feel a strong bass actually in your body? It’s the same with vibes. The vibrations from the Tango X penetrate deep into the tissue and touch your whole internal clitoral structure from the outside, leaving you fully, deeply satisfied. Plus, you won’t get any of the numbness or tingles that can come with buzzy vibrators.

While I’ve experienced that some feel a little apprehensive at the idea of a hard plastic vibrator, it truly is perfect for firm stimulation — pressing into the clit more and more as you get closer to orgasm. You can also use it lightly, for a more teasing approach. This bullet has accompanied me alone and with my partner, as well as on many vacations, and I can truly say that it’s a staple of my nightstand.

Why I Chose It

Having tried out several g-spot vibrators for myself, I know that it can be difficult to find one that really works for you. So many are the wrong shape, or just not powerful enough to do anything! Well, not the Fun Factory Tiger. This is a powerhouse of a vibe with a design that’s perfect for all kinds of bodies. Just ask our tester Cassie, who called it “one of the most powerful vibrators I’ve ever used“.

Like me, Cassie struggled to find an internal vibrator that worked for her, but was so pleased to find that the combination of strength, flexibility and texture was a winner. She loved “how flexible the shaft was and how smooth and squishy the silicone felt“, as it allowed her to move the toy around easily and stimulate different areas of the vaginal canal. The g-spot can be found around 1-2 inches inside the canal, but there are also other sensitive spots further in, like the a-spot. The Tiger’s length and flexibility mean that you can move it around and experiment to find your sweet spots.

You may also notice the little nub at the bottom of the shaft, and how it looks a little bit like a rabbit vibrator. That’s because this area is design to stimulate the clitoris as well! However, Cassie discovered that the shape was not quite right to reach her clit, and that the vibrations in this part weren’t quite strong enough for her. Luckily, she quickly came to the realization that this wasn’t such a bad thing, because she “could easily maneuvre my Satisfyer Curvy 2+ down there to provide some intense clit sucker-action“!

“The Lovehoney Power Play is the best g-spot vibrator I’ve found! I used to think maybe g-spot toys just weren’t for me, but now I know I just needed the right one.”

Often, when I’ve been searching for a sex toy that won’t cost an arm and a leg, I’ve quickly resigned myself to the fact that I’m going to have to settle for something sub-par. Whether it’s the power of the vibrations, or low-quality materials, there’s always something that lets you down. That’s why I was so excited to read Natasha’s review of the Lovehoney Power Play G-spot vibrator, because this one is different.

Despite being a battery-powered vibe, it’s housing a powerful motor inside. In fact, Natasha mentioned that “Usually the first setting on a toy is pretty much useless to me, but this is lovely“. She was impressed at how strong the vibrations felt, and even found the higher speeds a bit too much for her! Plus, they’re surprisingly quiet — Natasha wasn’t sure if that was just how it is, or if it was because she only needed to use the lower settings. Either way, that makes the Power Play perfect for discreet playtime. Just remember to keep some spare AAA batteries nearby in case of a mid-session run-out.

We should also take a look at the shape of it — the dramatic curve of the shaft is designed for you to be able to reach your g-spot with ease. As you maneuver it around, you should find that you can create a lot of pleasurable pressure right where you need it. The slim curve and the soft silicone combined made it so that Natasha found it “so easy to slide right in. It’s also a really nice shape and size to slip in and fit comfortably”, and she only needed a touch of water-based lube.

I tested the Satisfyer Pro 2 Gen 3 myself, and was very pleasantly surprised by how much I loved it! Having tried the original and beloved Satisfyer Pro 2, I was excited for this upgrade and what the new functions would feel like.

My favorite part by far was the Liquid Air function, which was truly the closest I’ve seen a sex toy come to simulating oral sex. The thin membrane on the Liquid Air attachment makes direct contact with the clitoris instead of just creating suction around it, and when you apply a generous amount of lube, it feels just like a tongue lapping gently against your clit. The regular clit suction mouth was a winner for me, too, as I’m pretty sensitive, and the wide, soft mouth was pleasurable without being overstimulating.

Another new addition to this toy is the option of vibrations. They are a little buzzy, and not super powerful, but I thought that they added a little extra pizazz to my playtime without becoming too overwhelming. Whether you end up enjoying them or not, I think the Satisfyer Pro 2 Gen 3 is perfect for beginners because it allows for so many different ways to play. You can enjoy a ton of variety and versatility without having to fork out for several different vibrators.

“I love love love everything about the Doxy Die Cast! The shiny sleek metal, massive size and insane power are so incredibly exciting and the vibrations are some of the best I have ever felt! If you love powerful vibrations and are in the market for a new wand, treat yourself to one of these and you won’t be disappointed!”

Isabelle tested the Doxy Die Cast out for us and (obviously) had a pretty good time! It’s one of the strongest vibrators available on the market today, and a perfect for choice for all the power queens and kings out there. It can reach speeds of up to 9000 RPM, which is 3000 more than the Original Hitachi Magic Wand. Plus, it is made from much better, body-safe materials and has a greater range of intensities than that old favorite.

One of the best things about this vibe is the weighted, silicone head, which Doxy designed especially to create uber-rumbly vibrations that reverberate though your whole body. You can also find this tech in wands like the Fun Factory Vim, but the Die Cast is the best example we’ve found. Isabelle mentioned that the vibrations “are smooth and don’t jump around at all… and rumbly, especially on the low settings but even on the higher settings“.

Of course, this power does come at a price, both money-wise and practicality-wise. This wand vibrator is pretty big and heavy, so holding it in place may be a challenge for some. However, the weight does also mean that you can lay it down and it will stay in place, providing delicious pressure on your clit while you lie back and enjoy! Isabelle also found herself “surprised by how little you can feel the vibrations in the handle” — something rare for strong vibrators like this one.

“I am seriously, seriously obsessed with the Womanizer Premium 2. I might marry this product.”

That was what Kiki, our Bedbible tester, had to say in her review of this toy. I guess I don’t have to tell you that she had an absolute blast with it, and it provided her with some “mind-blowing orgasms“. So, what made it such a hit?

Womanizer is a brand known for their incredibly strong sucking vibrators, and Kiki found that it was the most powerful clit sucker she had ever tried: “every time I use it I feel helpless against its power… Even the lowest of low settings is glorious“. For those of us who dream of clitoral stimulation intense enough to get you there in seconds, this might just be the answer. Plus, it doesn’t actually come into direct contact with the clitoris, since it’s creating a pulsating vacuum around the clit instead. That means you avoid feelings of numbness or overstimulation that direct contact can trigger. Just beware — if you have a very sensitive clitoris, the sheer power of this vibe may be too much to feel pleasurable.

Kiki also loved the look and feel of the Premium 2. She notes that it feels “silky smooth to the touch, has a nice weight to it… and has a natural curve that is shaped like your body“. I adore just looking at this vibrator — the body-safe silicone and shiny metallic accents are exactly my vibe, too. The fact that it has such an ergonomic shape makes it easy to find the right spot without having to overreach, as well as making it ideal for use during sex!

Why I Chose It

If you couldn’t already tell, I’m a sucker for a beautiful sex toy. The Le Wand Blend is absolutely no exception — its soft pink silicone and rose gold metal accents are right down my alley. Erica reviewed it for us, and also called it a “gorgeous… classy, luxury toy“, even as someone who doesn’t usually love pink toys.

Of course, looks aren’t everything! The Blend also offers powerful, rumbly vibrations both internally and externally, and the body is designed to make maximum contact in all the right places. The flexible rabbit arm means that it will nestle perfectly against your clit, no matter your body type, while the shaft has a slight curve to make contact with the front wall of the vagina, where the G-spot is located. Erica actually found that “the insertable part stimulates my A-spot [an erogenous zone further inside] more than my G-spot, due to its longer length“, but she still loved the deep internal rumbles.

Like other Le Wand toys, the Blend also has a crazy number of vibration options to choose from. Erica praised them in her review, too: “I also normally am not a huge fan of vibration patterns, but the patterns on the Le Wand Blend are just fabulous“. It doesn’t have independent controls for the internal and external arms, which some people prefer, but it does have patterns that offer isolated clit or G-spot vibrations, as well as patterns that switch between the two. At any time, you can click a button to switch from the ‘pattern’ mode back to the ‘steady speed’ mode, a feature that Erica really appreciated.

“I love using a sex toy for foreplay, teasing, and fun, and the Lush 3 is perfect for that!”

Of all of the vibrators in this review, the Lovense Lush 3 might be the one you’ve most likely heard of before. This viral sex toy hit is best known for its app-controls, which allow you to control the toy from anywhere in the world and customize the vibrations by making your own patterns, syncing the vibes to music, your voice and more!

Kasia tested it out, and discovered that “the egg’s vibrations are very powerful but quiet simultaneously” — an ideal combination whether you’re using it in public, or just don’t want to be overheard from another room. She found it “very comfortable to wear and walk around with“, and even though public play felt a little intimidating, her partner loved taking over the controls around the house.

The Lush 3’s main focus is internal vibrations, and though it does them well, Kasia was initially disappointed that the external arm didn’t do much for her clit. That means that, unless you’re fine with G-spot vibes alone, the Lush 3 may not be providing many hands-free orgasms. However, part of the fun of this toy is embracing the pleasure of foreplay or long-distance loving, before moving onto to something else for that all-important climax!

“The Swan blew me out of the water from the very first glance. Dare I say, love at first sight?”

When you think of a swan, you may not imagine a bright pink, girthy vibrator, but the Swan Wand has more surprises than that up its sleeve. I personally love a more filling sensation when I’m using an internal vibrator, and as our tester Daphne found out, this toy really hits that mark. It was definitely a larger vibrator than she expected, but she was excited and up to the task.

The Swan Wand is double-ended, so you can choose either the larger 2-inch wide end, or the slimmer 1.5-inch wide end. Importantly, both sides have their own deep, powerful motor, and each can be controlled separately, so whichever side you go for, you can use the other as a handle without vibrating your hand at the same time.

Daphne loved how it’s “curved in all the right ways, is thick and sturdy, and has intense vibration levels“. Making use of both sides, she found the girthy side perfect for external clitoral massage before slowly easing it inside, and the slimmer side ideal for quick G-spot stimulation. Just remember to use plenty of water-based lube with this toy, to warm up enough before you insert it.

Another thing Daphne appreciated was that the Swan Wand, beneath its soft silicone coating, is very rigid. While some users might prefer flexibility in an insertable toy, a rigid toy can also provide a lot more intense pressure. While testing it, she found that “if I’m sitting up and I pull it closer, it hits my clit as well“, which is sometimes what you need to reach all the way to orgasm!

One of the best things about finding a great vibrator is using it together with a partner! Of course, you can use a bullet or a wand to add that bit of extra clit stimulation during sex, but this toy takes things a step further, with vibrations for both partners to enjoy.

The We-Vibe Sync 2 is shaped like the letter C and is designed to be slipped in before sex, with slimmer arm inside the vagina and the other arm resting on the clitoris. Kasia also tested out this vibe, and found that, after a bit of a learning curve, it really added some extra oomph to playtime with her partner. The vibrations were powerful and could be felt by both of them together.

“I had some trouble reaching orgasms in certain positions… but once I could the right position, I was obsessed with it“. The flexible hinge on the Sync 2 means that you can adjust it to fit your body, though you may have to spend some to experimenting to find how it fits you best. While the clitoral arm didn’t always make the contact she wanted with adding a helping hand, Kasia loved that the internal arm was “small enough to quickly slide in, but the shape makes it stay even with more intense thrusting motions“.

While you can use the We-Vibe Sync 2 without any remote controls, you can access the full range of vibration speeds and patterns by using either the handheld remote or via app. I’ve personally heard mixed reviews of the We-Vibe app over the years, but Kasia didn’t have any issues with functionality or connectivity, so it seems like they’ve worked on making it more reliable.

The ZALO Aya is a master of multitasking! In my years of testing and writing about sex toys, I’ve never seen one quite like this. The main body of the Aya is, as our tester Naomi called it, “a compact vibrator with strong, quiet vibrations” — basically a bullet vibe. However, it also comes with a soft silicone, dildo-like attachment that slips onto the end, transforming it into a dual-stimulation vibe. There’s also a strong magnet that you can remove and place on the outside of your panties to transform it into a hands-free panty vibrator. That’s three versatile ways to play!

Naomi had a ton of fun playing around with the different modes of the Aya by herself, using the wireless remote control to explore the different vibration speeds and patterns. However, she enjoyed it even more when she got her partner in on the action. He explored all of the features that the ZALO app offers, including creating his own patterns and syncing the vibrations to music. She mentioned that “this became one of our favorite remote controlled vibrators to use because you can’t even tell it’s on when inserted!“. Since it’s powerful and yet so quiet, the Aya would also make a great wearable vibrator for public play!

After Sarah tested out the Vibepad 2 for Bedbible, she was blown away. The heating function in particular made a big difference in comparison to the original Vibepad (which she had also tried). She mentioned that the heat ignites the clitoral erectile tissue and makes for much more intense orgasms!

“I think it’s a uniquely innovative toy that lets women and vulva-owners explore new, thrilling sensations. And makes pretty good practice for face-sitting too! It’s earned its place as one of my all-time favorite sex toys, and I think folks who like grinding stimulation should definitely give it a try.”

I adore grinding too, and love that this style of vibrator is becoming more and more common. The Vibepad 2 is a great pick for those who enjoy firm pressure while grinding, given its rigid surface, and that flickering tongue really adds a new dimension of pleasure compared to a regular grinding vibe. The flat non-slip surface makes is ideal to use on a chair, on a pillow, on the couch, by your home office desk, or even on your partner’s lap!
