How We Tested the 16 Best Vibrators
Bedbible’s mission is to find you the best buzzy buddy for your needs and desires! We understand that everyone is different, which is why we tested a whole range of vibrators before compiling this list. And, we don’t want you to just take our word for it.
We ask real people, just like you, to test these products. They put each vibrator through its paces and record their experiences, so you can find out where they excel and where they don’t. But, one person’s experience can’t speak for everyone, which is why we also aggregate user reviews left on online sex toy stores to give you the full picture.
Plus, this review has been written by an expert in the field. Over 40 hours of research has gone into making this review, and our sexperts are aces at knowing what makes a good vibrator. We’ve rated each on design, ease-of-use, quality, price, features and more. Everything you could want to know when looking for your perfect vibe, we’ve got it!

The Types of Vibrators You Need to Know
There are so many vibrators out there these days that it can be overwhelming.

How to Pick the Perfect Vibrator for You
When looking for your dream vibrator, there are a few things that are important to consider…
- Your Area of Focus — Do you want a vibrator just for clitoral stimulation, or do you want something insertable for your g-spot? Do you want to use it anally?
- Materials — Here at Bedbible, we recommend sticking to sex toys from body-safe, non-porous materials. These include silicone, ABS plastic, steel and glass.
- Vibration Intensity — Are you looking for something so powerful that you’ll orgasm within seconds, or do you want to slower build-up? A vibrator with weaker vibrations isn’t necessarily worse, it just might not be to everyone’s tastes.
- Rechargeability — Battery-powered vibrators are generally cheaper than rechargeable ones, but also tend to be less reliable.
- Size — Finding the right size vibrator can involve a bit of guesswork, especially if you don’t have a ton of sex toy experience. However, you can use our guide to help you!
- Price — Your budget will, of course, impact which vibrator is best for you. However, each of our vibrator reviews include affordable options!
FAQ
What is a Vibrator?
A vibrator is any sex toy that has a motor that vibrates! Plus, the category actually includes some sex toys that don't vibrate, but don't worry too much about trying to categorize each vibrator. The truth is that vibrators have come an incredibly long way since the first Hitachi wand. Now they exist in so many forms that there might just be a vibrator that's perfect for every vulva-owner in the world! Of course, vibrators aren't limited to those that offer clitoral and g-spot stimulation, but they are the most popular types. Vibrators can vary a lot in intensity, rumble and functions, which is why we've analyzed and rated each vibrator in this review.

The 16 Best vibrators in Test
Fifty Shades of Grey Greedy Girl
When your brain hears ‘Fifty Shades of Grey’ it may jump straight to BDSM, but this powerful rabbit vibrator from the Fifty Shades collection is less bondage and more blissful. This whole toy is a lesson in sleek and sensual sex toy design. Its silicone shaft is girthy enough to satisfy those who want to feel filled, and has a wonderfully curved, bulbous tip that hits your g-spot with ease. Then, there are the bunny ears, which are fairly firm (perfect for those who like to apply pressure to their clit) yet still made of soft silicone. There’s also a rabbit ‘head’ that can also be pressed against the clit for a different feel.
Both the shaft and the rabbit arm are equipped with powerful motors that churn out intense vibrations where you need them most. Paired with simple controls, this vibrator is a powerhouse that’s still accessible and easy to use. Plus, it’s rechargeable and waterproof.


The Greedy Girl g-spot rabbit is a perfect combination of luxury and affordability. It looks the part, with silky silicone and silver touches, but won’t cost you a small fortune. Plus, it really doesn’t skimp on the power.
Those who have very limited experience with insertable sex toys, or just prefer a slimmer shaft may find that the Greedy Girl is a bit too girthy. However, many will find it just as pleasurable with some extra warming up beforehand!
We-Vibe Tango X
If you’re looking for a versatile, powerful, portable vibrator, then look no further than the We-Vibe Tango X. An upgrade to the bestselling Tango, the Tango X features a hard plastic tip that looks just like a lipstick. As well as being stylish and discreet, this slanted tip is also perfect for pinpoint clit stimulation! The handle is made from soft silicone that’s easy to grip and manipulate, and the controls are a simple up, down and switch between patterns deal.
Yet, the real star of the Tango X show is the incredibly rumbly vibrations. Nothing I’ve tried comes anywhere close to the sheer power of the rumbles this vibrator can pump out, even in much bigger vibes! The low-frequency vibrations penetrate deep into the tissue, pleasing your entire internal clitoral network. Use it alone or during sex with a partner, or even in the shower. The Tango X is the perfect companion at home or on the go.


The Tango X’s rumbles are ideal for those who find that buzzier vibrators make them feel numb or tingly. Alternatively, if you find yourself wishing your vibrator was just more powerful and intense, then the Tango X might just be what you’re looking for!
While some may feel a little apprehensive at the idea of a hard plastic vibrator, it truly is perfect for firm, satisfying stimulation. The plastic feels smooth on the skin, and, with a good helping of water-based lube, moves around with no problem.
Of course, if you’re in the market for a vibrator to use internally, then you might want to keep looking. Good thing we’ve recommended a whole bunch below!
Dame Arc
The Dame Arc is a really great example of simplicity in a sex toy done to (almost) perfection. It has an ergonomically-designed body, with a beautifully curved shaft and very bulbous tip that hits the g-spot just right. The vibrations aren’t overwhelmingly powerful, but are rumbly and oh so satisfying. But wait, there’s more! The tip can also give you some amazing clit stimulation, too, with a squishy ridge that provides firm yet comfortable pressure.
The Dame Arc offers 5 vibration speeds and 5 patterns that are controlled through a simple three button system. The controls are easy to see, but also have tactile markers so you won’t accidentally hit the wrong one when you’re mid-session. The Arc is also totally waterproof and rechargeable for your piece of mind.


The Dame Arc just oozes quality. It feels silky soft and the vibrations are quiet without feeling weak. While not buzzy by any means, some people may find the Arc’s vibrations not quite rumbly enough, but it’s all a matter of preference, and I would recommend it to beginners and experienced users alike! Plus, the sheer versatility of this vibe really puts it above many others in the g-spot vibrator category!
Doxy Die Cast
The Doxy Die Cast is the ultimate wand vibrator. The sleek aluminium titanium alloy body feels powerful in your hand and that’s before you even turn it in. Once you plug it in and press the power button, you will be stunned by the incredible power this thing is capable of! Scroll up to the highest settings to unleash all 9000 rpms of vibration! Yes, this is one for the power kings and queens out there! The head is covered in silky soft silicone and double weighted to make sure you get the rumbliest vibrations.


This is a true powerhouse of a vibrator! The weightiness feels amazing in your hands and means you don’t need to apply a lot of pressure. This does mean it might not be the best option if you have strength or mobility issues in your hands/wrists though. The vibrations go from a very low deep rumble to extremely powerful, and still manage to maintain a good level of rumbliness on the higher settings. The power kicks up quite a lot from the first to second setting, so if you have a sensitive clit or labia, this might be too powerful, but if you love power, you are in for such a treat! It’s definitely one of the more expensive wand vibrators but it is so well made and more powerful than any other I’ve come across. Plus, it will leave you weak at the knees in every sense!
Dame Fin
If you love the intimate touch of your own hand or your partner’s, but wish that it had a little more pep, then you may just love the Dame Fin. This finger vibrator is incredibly intuitive to use, and has none of the learning curve of more complex vibrators. According to Dame, the Fin was “designed to feel like an extension of your hand”, and, just like your hand, it can wander all over the body. It’s perfect for gentle clit stimulation, but you can also use it on the nipples, perineum or even less obvious places like the neck!
This super accessible vibrator has a strap to keep it anchored to your fingers, though this can be removed if you prefer to freehand it. It can also be worn in different ways, so you can make use of both the soft, squishy side (for broader, diffuse vibrations) and the harder side (for more precise, firm stimulation).


If you’re a newbie, starting out on your sex toy journey, you can’t go wrong with the Dame Fin. Be aware that its vibrations are quite gentle and buzzy, so it’s ideal for slow self-pleasure sessions, building up your arousal during foreplay, or adding some extra stimulation during penetrative sex. However, if you want something that will totally knock your socks off with its power, you won’t find that here.
Rocks Off 80mm Rainbow Bullet
Rocks Off are known for creating affordable sex toys that don’t suck, something that is much harder to come by than we’d like. The Rocks Off 80mm bullet vibrator is a great example — it’s perfect for powerful, pinpoint stimulation. The hard plastic, bullet-shaped body means you can get super precise with your stimulation, or lay it on its side for broader vibes. While not as rumbly as something like the We-Vibe Tango X, this vibe is great for those who don’t have the budget for a more premium bullet, or those who are new to vibrators.
The Rocks Off 80mm is also incredibly versatile. Use it as a clit vibrator during sex or solo sessions, or try exploring around the body and tease the nipples, perineum and more. Just don’t insert it anally, as it doesn’t have a flared base and could get easily lost. While this bullet vibe isn’t rechargeable, it is completely waterproof, so you can take it in the shower or bath with no issues.


The Rocks Off 80mm bullet vibrator has one big issue: it’s battery-powered. It’s also not a standard battery type, but an N battery, which isn’t so easily available. However, this does allow it to be a lot cheaper than most rechargeable vibrators, so judge for yourself is this is something you’re willing to compromise on. The affordability of this vibrator also means that you’ll have to forgo some of the usual amenities you’d expect from a more high-end vibe, like a travel lock function and a storage bag. However, satin storage bags are available very cheaply from stores like Lovehoney, so you can make up for it with no issue.
Lovense Dolce
Powerful vibrations? Check. Dual g-spot and clitoral vibes? Check. Adjustable fit? Check. Remote app controls? Also check!
The Lovense Dolce (previously known as the Quake) is a wearable vibrator that you insert into the vagina, with an arm that extends up to give your clit some love, too. Covered in soft but textured silicone, the Dolce has a fairly girthy bulb that sits next to your g-spot, rumbling away. Plus, you can adjust both the angle of the bend and how much either end extends, so you can find your perfect fit and make sure it hits both of your sweet spots.
Just like its cousin, the Lush 3, the Lovense Dolce has a whole load of app control capabilities, from a library of patterns, to music syncing and long-distance play. It’s also programmable, so you can find your favorite speeds and patterns and actually program them into your toy, accessing them using the buttons on the Dolce itself. Finally, since you can use the Dolce hands-free, why not try out the Speed mode, which allows you to sync its vibrations with your movements as you walk around wearing it.


You might automatically start comparing the Lovense Dolce to the Lush 3, and I wouldn’t blame you. In truth, one isn’t necessarily better than the other, but it is worth noting that some do prefer the Dolce for its adjustability and more solid clitoral stimulator.
However, it’s not the quietest toy. If you do want to take it out for a spin in public, I would recommend doing a test run at home first, and sticking to noisier public places if you want to keep things discreet.
Lovense Lush 3
The Lovense Lush 3 is a different breed of vibrator. This love egg is designed to be wearable — no need for straps or magnets! The bulbous egg nestles next to your g-spot and delivers incredibly powerful vibrations exactly where you need them. It also has a fixed tail that hugs your body and teases you clit with extra vibrations for a blended experience.
You can use it as is, but the fun doesn’t stop there. Lovense are pioneers of app-controlled toys, and the Lush 3 is perhaps their finest example. Just connect it to the Lovense Remote app and unlock a whole lot of possibilities, including custom speeds and patterns, voice-activated vibrations and syncing to music. You can also connect your Lush 3 up to any phone in the world using WiFi and have it be controlled remotely! Perfect for long-distance partners or just taking control when you’re not at home. It can even be used for discreet public play!


The Lovense Lush 3 is pretty famous in sex toy circles, and that’s for a reason. It’s incredibly powerful and intense, and can be used alone or with a partner, wherever you choose. It also has a crazy battery life of up to 5 hours, and takes only 1 hour to charge. It’s totally waterproof, too!
It is not, however, completely silent, even when inserted. If you’re using it at home, that shouldn’t be much of an issue, as it’s quite quiet. But, if you want to take it in public, then stick to places with a bit of background noise if you want to be discreet. Clubs and gigs are perfect places to try out its sound-activated vibrations!
Happy Rabbit Thrusting Rabbit Vibrator
The Happy Rabbit thrusting rabbit vibrator is one of Lovehoney’s best-known and most-loved creations, both for its functions and its relatively cheap price. Made with smooth silicone and an extending thruster arm, this vibrator offers both powerful clitoral vibes and a sensational g-spot massage experience. The rabbit arm features a ‘head’ with a slightly pointed ‘nose’ that you can press into your clit for some super firm stimulation, as well as two ears made from thick, solid silicone for some real pinpoint vibes. Then you have the shaft, which is a pretty girthy 1.6 inches in diameter for a really filling sensation. Of course, this might be a bit big for some, but is sure to please the size queens out there!


Many thrusting vibrators are actually pulsators, meaning they only make small movements for a kind of mini-massage. The Happy Rabbit Thruster, however, is the real kind, with longer strokes that more accurately mimic the thrusting of penetrative sex.
Lovehoney state that this toy has whisper-quiet vibrations, which may be true, but the thrusting is certainly not so whisper-quiet. One of the biggest complaints that users have said is that it can get extremely loud, especially on the more intense thrusting settings. So, if you’re looking something discreet, this might not be your best option.
Fun Factory Volta
It might look a bit strange at first, but the Fun Factory Volta is a tongue vibrator that promises to deliver unique sensations to your clitoris and beyond. From its powerful motor, rumbly vibrations are transmitted up through the silicone, to two flexible ‘tongues’ at the tip. They quiver and ‘lick’ with intensity, giving you direct, precise clit stimulation that feels not unlike oral sex. Of course, the clit isn’t the only possible target — the Volta can be used all over the body. It feels amazing on the nipples, and can even be used as a vibrating stroker on the penis.


It’s the opposite of the kind of broad stimulation that you get from a wand vibrator, but if you love more intense, direct clitoral stimulation, the Volta could be a winner. This tongue vibrator doesn’t exactly replicate oral sex, but it’s its own unique and wonderful thing!
You might have to spend a little time beforehand learning the controls, but once you’re familiar, you can enjoy its large range of intensities. Also, like all Fun Factory toys, the silicone texture is a little strange. They actually sand their silicone down with a very fine grit, creating a grippy, slightly rough texture. While it can attract lint, it’s still 100% non-porous and body-safe. If you give it a quick rinse before using and use plenty of lube, you’ll keep everything pleasurable and hygienic.
Lelo Smart Wand 2 Large
Wand vibrators: they’re powerful as heck, and perfect for those who love intense, broad clitoral stimulation. If you’re looking for a shining example of the genre, then check out the large edition of the Lelo Smart Wand 2. It’s a classic magic wand vibrator, but with a difference. This sleek-looking wand is covered top-to-toe in smooth silicone, making it fully waterproof and body-safe. The curved handle means it’s easy to hold and maneuver around to your sweet spots, and its simple controls make it a breeze to use, even if you don’t have a ton of sex toy experience. Then, of course, there are the vibrations. The Smart Wand 2 is one of the rumbliest wands out there, especially on the lower settings. It has a super powerful motor, and doesn’t need to be plugged in to work, unlike many other wands.


The Lelo Smart Wand 2 Large is an ideal vibrator for all the power queens out there! It delivers on intensity, and doesn’t compromise on other quality-of-life issues that plague so many other wand vibrators do.
That being said, this may not be the perfect option if you’re looking for something portable or lightweight. It’s also fairly loud, so watch out if you prefer a discreet session!
Lelo Soraya 2
As soon as you see the Lelo Soraya 2, you know that you’re in for a treat! Everything about it’s design screams quality and luxury, but that’s not its only selling point. This rabbit vibrator has two powerful motors in the shaft and rabbit arm that deliver super rumbly vibrations to your g-spot and clitoris simultaneously. The shaft has a gentle curve to it and a bulbous tip, both of which help it make maximum contact with your g-spot, and it’s also a bit girthy, really giving you that feeling of being filled up. Then, you have the rabbit arm, which is super flexible and also quite bulbous so it can nestle nicely against your clit, whatever your anatomy looks like.


In the mood for a spectacular blended orgasm? Give the Lelo Soraya 2 a whirl! It’s rumbly, silky smooth and a perfect way to treat yourself to an extra special orgasm.
Unfortunately, it’s definitely pricey, but it’s also one of those toys that will last you a long, long time. Just be sure, when cleaning it, to get into all of the crevices where the silicone and plastic meet, as lube and other residues can collect there if you aren’t careful!
Womanizer Premium 2
Okay, we cheated a bit — the Womanizer Premium 2 is not technically a vibrator. But, we’re including it here because it’s just as good as one, if not better!
It’s a clitoral suction stimulator, or clit sucker, which uses pulsations to stimulate both the internal and external parts of your clitoris. Yep, your clitoris extends inside your body — read all about it here. The way it works by creating pulses or air, move a tiny drum in the mouth of the sucker back and forth, kind of like your ear drum. This creates a vacuum that pulsates and ‘sucks’ at your clit, without actually making any direct contact with it.
The Womanizer Premium 2 is one of the best examples of a clit sucker out there, with an enormous 14 different intensity levels of choose from, and a Smart Silence function that means it only turns on when in close contact with your body. It’s fully waterproof, rechargeable, and ergonomically-designed to make it easy to hold. Plus, it comes with two different sizes of ‘mouth’ to fit all kinds of bodies. Finally, it has an improved Autopilot mode, which moves randomly between different intensity settings in an exciting and unpredictable pattern. You can use Autopilot on soft, medium or intense mode.


There are loads and loads of clit suckers around these days, but the Womanizer Premium 2 encapsulates a lot of what makes them fantastic. It is very expensive, so it might not be the first choice for those wanting to try one out for the first time. However, if you know and love this kind of toy, then it could be worth investing in such a high-quality and effective one.
You should also know that, despite its Smart Silence feature, the Womanizer Premium 2 is not a silent vibrator. Depending on your intensity level, and how much of a seal you create around your clitoris, it can be fairly loud when in use.
Magic Wand Rechargeable
It’s the one and only! This vibrator is the rechargeable version of the Original Magic Wand, which is mains-powered. Both the Original and Rechargeable Magic Wands are infamous for their sheer power and intensity, but the Rechargeable takes a lot of the good stuff about the original and makes it better. It has two more speed settings, and replaces the unhygienic vinyl head cover with non-porous, body-safe silicone.
The Rechargeable Magic Wand is many people’s go-to for intense clitoral orgasms, and is also popular in the BDSM community for edging and forced orgasms. Whatever your taste, the Magic Wand has been accompanying people’s sexy romps for many years.


Do I think the Rechargeable Magic Wand is the best of the wand vibrators out there? Honestly, no. While it might be incredibly powerful, there are a lot of downsides to it. It’s not waterproof, or even splashproof, meaning that you have to take great care when cleaning it, and it’s very hard to clean it thoroughly. It also has fewer speeds than other wands, and lacks lower speeds that many people enjoy while warming up. Finally, compared to newer wands, the Rechargeable Magic Wand has fairly buzzy vibrations, which aren’t everyone’s cup of tea.
We-Vibe Nova 2
The We-Vibe Nova 2 is a rabbit vibrator with a whole lot of adjustability added to the mix. I’m talking a highly adjustable and posable rabbit arm, as well as a flexible shaft, giving you a super customizable and tailored experience. Since the rabbit arm is so curved and flexible, it can move with your body as you thrust the Nova 2 in and out. That means constant clitoral contact, no matter the depth or the angle! The shaft itself is also curved, so you can easily reach your g-spot, and is bulbous enough to feel satisfying without being overly girthy for beginners. In all-over silky-soft silicone, the We-Vibe Nova 2 is comfy and smooth against the skin, too.
For maximum rumbles, the Nova 2 has a motor in the shaft and a motor in the arm. Explore the 10 patterns (which can all be experienced at 10 different intensity levels) manually, or connect your toy up to the We-Vibe app and enjoy custom speeds and patterns, syncing the vibes to sounds, and even long-distance controls!


The We-Vibe Nova 2 is truly a vibrator that everyone can find a way to enjoy! With its supreme adjustability and huge range of speeds and patterns, you can really experiment with it and find all kinds of ways to make it work for you. It’s also quiet, waterproof, and rechargeable — qualities that everyone loves in a sex toy.
While the Nova 2 can be enjoyed perfectly on its own, you also have the option of connecting it to the We-Vibe app. For some, this is a easy-breezy process, but others (including myself) have struggled with connection issues and a lack of instructions when using this app.
Satisfyer Pro 2 Next Generation
And finally, we have another viral sex toy sensation! The Satisfyer Pro 2 is one of the most popular sex toys in history, and that’s not an exaggeration! It’s a clitoral suction stimulator, like the Womanizer Premium 2 above, that uses Satisfyer’s Air Pulse technology to deliver intense but indirect clitoral pleasure. Despite its affordable price, the Satisfyer Pro 2 is sturdily made and uses body-safe silicone on the mouth, giving you a comfortable feel on your skin. Since the mouth is quite wide, it can fit a variety of bodies and create a tight seal that guarantees maximum suction intensity! There are 11 intensity levels to experiment with, so you can start off slow and then increase as you get towards the grand finale.


There’s a reason why the Satisfyer Pro 2 is so loved — it’s a great mix of affordability and function that come together to make a toy that might just blow you away. It looks pretty and feminine without being too pink or frilly, and the controls are super simple to use.
However, it also doesn’t always have the most reliable, smooth functions, and can sometimes feel a little jumpy. Also, while it’s much smaller than the Womanizer, the Satisfyer Pro 2 is still fairly bulky when compare to other clit suckers, like the We-Vibe Melt, for example. While the mouth it comes with is quite wide, for under $10 you can buy a pack of 5 different sized and shaped heads.
Vibrators for Long-Distance Relationships
We’ve talked a little about this above, but now it’s time to take a deeper dive into the world of long-distance sex toys. These are vibrators (and other sex toys) that harness the power of the internet to allow you to control them from anywhere in the world, all at the touch of a button. There are several sex toy brands that specialize in these kinds of app-controlled vibrators, including Lovense and Kiiroo, but many other brands have dipped their toes in too. Here are two of our favorites…
Anal Vibrators
Of course, vibrators aren’t just for the vulva! Among the many great types of vibrators out there, we couldn’t not mention just a couple of anal vibrators. Whether it’s a butt plug, anal beads or a prostate massager, there are so, so many buzzy buddies out there to give you tons of booty bliss. Here are two of our top picks to pique your interest…
Best Vibrators for Beginners
Delving into the world of vibrators for the first time can easily end up being a bit overwhelming, and even intimidating! Of course, which vibrator you pick will depend on the kinds of sensations you like and how you want to use it, but here are two that we think make an easy and satisfying introduction…
The Best Travel-Friendly Vibrators
Is there anything more erotic than letting loose in a hotel room in some exotic location? Probably not. For all those who want a discreet but powerful vibrator to pack away in their suitcase, here are two of our top travel vibrator picks…
Buzzy vs Rumbly Vibrations
When we talk about the kinds of vibrations that sex toys produce, we generally describe them as buzzy or rumbly. Vibrations exist on a spectrum, with high-frequency ‘buzzy’ vibrations on one end and low-frequency ‘rumbly’ vibrations on the other.
Very buzzy vibrations stimulate only the surface of the skin and can feel ticklish or tingly to many people, though some also prefer a very powerful vibrator to feel more buzzy. Rumbly vibrations, on the other hand, penetrate deeper into the tissue. You could compare it to the treble and bass in music.
It can be hard to tell if a vibrator will feel more buzzy or rumbly without trying it out. That’s why we include a buzzy/rumbly rating on all of our Bedbible reviews! You can also try checking the reviews on online sex toy stores like Lovehoney to see what other people say.
Why You Should Spend More Than $100 on a Vibrator
It’s the eternal question: how much should you spend on a vibrator? And, why do so many of them cost so dang much?
Well, the truth is that, if you want a cheap vibrator — say under $20 — you’ll have to sacrifice some comforts and quality. Sure, it will vibrate, and may well give you an orgasm, and if that’s all you want from it, then we certainly won’t stand in your way! However, most cheap vibrators aren’t made from high-quality, body-safe materials, they deliver very buzzy, tickly and surface-level vibrations, they aren’t rechargeable, they aren’t waterproof, and they don’t offer a huge range of different vibration speeds or patterns.
But, I hear you say, there’s still a huge difference between $20 and $100! That is true, but you have to consider the kind of vibrator you want when you think about the price. There are some fantastic bullet vibrators for around $70-$80, but if you want something insertable, like a g-spot vibrator or rabbit vibrator, you’ll often be looking at $100+. These kinds of vibrators are bigger, with larger motors (and sometimes more than one). That’s not to mention if you want any special features or functions, like thrusting, licking or stroking.
How to Recognize Body-Safe Materials
Having a vibrator made of body-safe materials is important! Since your vibrator is going on or inside your body, getting all up in your most intimate parts, it’s vital that it’s not doing you any damage or causing any harm. That’s truly the opposite of pleasurable.
The most common body-safe materials you encounter in vibrators are silicone and ABS plastic, though you may also occasionally see glass or steel, too. These are all non-porous, meaning that they can’t harbor any germs or other nasties inside the material that could be released into your body. So, how do you tell if your vibrator is actually made from body-safe materials?

Only Buy from Reputable, Specialized Sellers

Your first step is to only buy your vibrators from reputable sellers that specialize in sex toys. That could be a brick-and-mortar store, or a trusted online sex toy store, or directly from a brand themselves. We’ve listed some of our recommendations below.

Read the Materials Carefully

All the materials on the outside of your vibrator (i.e the parts that will be touching your body) should be listed on the product box (for physical stores) or the product page (for online stores). Read them carefully, and avoid toys that have other materials than what we listed above.

Avoid Silicone 'Blends'

Occasionally, you will see a sex toy advertised as being made with a silicone ‘blend’. While this might sound safe, it actually means that the silicone has been mixed with porous and even potentially toxic ingredients, compromising the integrity of the silicone and making it unsafe to use.
The Best Vibrator Brands to Choose From
Of course, there are countless vibrator brands out there — too many to even count! So, how do you know which ones are worth it? Well, we can help you out just a little bit — here are some of our favorite brands for their quality, power and range…
The Best Vibrator Stores to Choose From
Of course, you don’t have to buy straight from the brands to get your vibrators. In fact, oftentimes, you can actually better deals on sex toys by shopping at online sex toy stores! The trick, however, is finding reliable online stores that stock great products and ship their products discreetly. Here are some that we trust and recommend…

Lovehoney

Lovehoney is one of the most well-known and widespread online sex toy retailers around, stocking hundreds of brands as well as many of their own creations. They’re 100% legit, and offer discreet shipping, too. Though, if you’re looking for Lovehoney alternatives, why not look at the next shop…

SheVibe

SheVibe is another legit sex toy store, with a huge selection, low prices and discreet shipping. And, if that didn’t convince you, just check out their website — it’s totally covered in Marvel cartoonist Alex Kotkin’s absolutely incredible illustrations. Otherwise, we have a SheVibe alternative for you, too…

Hustler Hollywood

Finally, we have Hustler Hollywood. You may already know them, since they started out from the Hustler porn mag and now have 39 physical stores across the country, as well as an online store. Despite their origins, this sex toy store is totally legit and offers discreet shipping. Still, if you need more options, check out our Hustler Hollywood alternatives.
Vibrations vs Air Pulse Technology
You might have noticed that we snuck in a few non-vibrating sex toys into this vibrator review. That’s because there’s a new technology in town that offers supreme pleasure for your clit, all without vibrations. They’re called clit suckers, or clitoral suction stimulators, or sometimes air pulse stimulators, and work by creating a seal around your clit and delivering a pulsating vacuum that ‘sucks’ and pulses through it. Plus, it does it all without actually making direct contact with your clitoris.
We won’t say that one is better than the other, because vibrations are pretty amazing, too. However, here’s the basics of how they compare. If you want to know all the deets, and how to decide which one you might like more, check our Vibrator vs Air Pulse Technology blog post.
