About The Womanizer Premium
The Womanizer Premium utilizes “Pleasure Air Technology”, a patented tech that uses pulses of air to stimulate the user's clitoris. The toy's nozzle creates a seal around the clit and the result is intense stimulation that does not have the overstimulating or numbing effect that some vibrators can cause. The Womanizer Premium is waterproof, USB rechargeable, and ergonomically designed for a comfortable user experience. It offers 12 different intensity levels and a selection of additional features including Smart Silence (more on that shortly) and an "Autopilot" mode.
The vibrations of the Womanizer Premium are quiet, quite powerful, and neither really buzzy nor rumbly

Personal Experience
A new Version of the Womanizer has been launched, see our review of the Womanizer Premium 2 here. I had high hopes for the Womanizer Premium, which was actually one of the first Womanizer toys I got my hands on. And I was not disappointed! From the lowest, rumbly settings up to the levels where it feels like it’s determined to rip the orgasm from my body, this absolute powerhouse is a total winner.
How I Use It
When I use vibrators, I usually just stick them onto the highest setting immediately and leave them there. I can’t do the same with an intense clitoral suction toy like the Womanizer Premium, though, as the higher settings are too full-on to use without sufficient warm-up. Instead, I typically like to start on level 5 or 6 and work up from there. Often, I don’t even need to get all the way to level 12! The feeling of this toy can best be described as somewhere between a suck and a caress. The nozzle hugs your clit and the pulses of air can be anything from a gentle flicker up to a serious pounding. At its best, it can take me from cold to the point of orgasm in just a few minutes.Positioning Tricks
When I first started using suction toys, I couldn’t get them to work for me because I was trying to use them in the same way that I use vibrators. That just didn’t really work, because they’re really different products and work in different ways. I had to try various different positions and angles to find the one that works for me (in case you’re wondering, it’s “legs close together, toy between my thighs attacking my clit from above”). As ever, your mileage may vary, so don’t be afraid to try a few different things out to see what works for you.Use in Water
I’m not normally big into masturbating in the bath (aside from anything else, I find the physics of it quite challenging!) But I was curious to see what the Womanizer Premium would feel like in water, so I decided to give it a go. Have you ever masturbated using a well-placed jet from a hot tub or jacuzzi? Well, it’s a bit like that! The suction makes the water swirl and pulse in a very interesting way. For that reason alone, I recommend this one if you’re into playing in water. It’s a very different feeling to playing with the toy outside of water, and a sensation that surprised me with how much I enjoyed it.About that “Autopilot” Feature
I sort of hate this function, I’m afraid. It’s essentially a glorified version of a vibration pattern, in which the intensity of the pulses moves automatically between speeds within a range of 4. For me, it completely throws me off and can even ruin my chances of reaching orgasm if it changes at the wrong moment. I guess it could be fun if you like unpredictability, but it really doesn’t do anything for me but annoy me. It was like getting non-consensually edged by my toy, and not in a good way!Any Downsides?
The only complaint I have about the Womanizer Premium – and it really is a tiny one – is that I would have liked the silicone of the nozzle to be a little bit thicker and squishier. It’s quite firm, which can be a little uncomfortable if I’m not sufficiently warmed up and lubricated. This can be mitigated by adding plenty of lube to the nozzle and my body, but it could have been avoided by using a slightly thicker and softer nozzle design to begin with.Verdict
I was sent this product in exchange for a review but, had I paid for it, I’d definitely feel like I’d got my money’s worth. It might be pricey, but you get what you pay for and the Womanizer Premium is an absolute gem. Simply the best clitoral suction toy I’ve ever used (and at this point, I’ve used a lot). Truly excellent.Design
The Womanizer Premium immediately lives up to its name. This gorgeous, sleek and sexy toy is available in black, red, pink, navy blue, or white. Mine is black and adorned with a single gold-coloured accent band. The silicone is velvety soft and feels lovely to the touch. The entire presentation and design says luxury and premium quality! I particularly appreciated the inclusion of two different nozzles, because bodies are varied and different sizes will suit different people. It also comes with a useful branded storage bag.
Ease of Use
Pressure wave toys (also known as suction toys) like the Womanizer range of products always have a bit of a learning curve attached when you first use them. You'll need to experiment with positioning, placement, and nozzle size to see what works best for you. But once you've mastered the basics, the Womanizer Premium is simple to use. The user interface is intuitive (up/down buttons for the speeds, an on/off button, and an Autopilot button). They're easy to press and well positioned so you can change setting without having to move the toy and interrupt your flow.
Quality
This is genuinely an incredible quality toy. Well-designed and beautifully presented, made of premium body-safe and easy-care materials, and with a host of cool bonus features. The Womanizer Premium is clearly well-made and built to last... but if something does go wrong, you're covered by a five year manufacturers' warranty.
Price
The Womanizer Premium comes with a premium price tag. Retailing for $199 at full price, this is currently the second most expensive toy in my entire (extensive) collection. Is it worth it? Yes... with caveats. If you're after the ultimate luxury clitoral stimulator and willing to pay for it, look no further. If you're happy to dispense with some of the additional features for the sake of getting a more affordable but equally quality toy, the Womanizer Classic is a great alternative option.
Performance
The Womanizer Premium is a toy I reach for again and again when I want a reliable toy that can be counted on to deliver orgasmic results. I get a good 2 hours' runtime out of a full charge, which is pretty impressive considering I like to use my toy on the highest settings. I'm particularly obsessed with the Smart Silence feature, which means the toy stops automatically when it is not against your body (more on that in a minute). The Womanizer Premium is genuinely a joy to use and remains one of my faithful go-to products.
Packaging
The Womanizer Premium's packaging is gorgeous. It's somewhat reminiscent of what might be used for high-end perfume or makeup, beautifully designed and with a clear panel showing the toy inside. The packaging comes in different colors to match the colorway you choose for your toy. The only downside is that there's a LOT of plastic, which isn't ideal if you like to be eco conscious. It's almost entirely recyclable, though.
Materials and care
The Womanizer Premium is coated in 100% smooth body-safe silicone. It is submersible, which makes cleaning a breeze. Just use warm water and gentle soap. The nozzles are also removeable, so you can wash them separately or even sterilize them in a pan of boiling water. When cleaning, take special care around the nozzle.
Special feature
Smart Silence is the Womanizer Premium’s outstanding feature. This innovative invention means that when the toy is switched on, it will only pulse while it’s actually in contact with the body. Whether you want to pause for a moment (to grab lube, find a porn clip, or whatever) or need to be able to stop at a moment’s notice (for example, if someone is about to walk in on you), this is an awesome addition that I really, really love.
