Smile Makers The Tennis Pro G-Spot Vibrator
The W500 model offers two different sized heads — because clitorises don’t come in one shape or size! — which is a nice upgrade but you’ve got to be willing to pay the price” (The Pleasure Chest, $220). No matter your tastes, there are many, many uses for remote-controlled sex toys — from hands-free solo play or partnered activities (up close or long distance). To start, I stripped to my silk skivvies, keeping them on as a buffer just in case the vibrations from the wand were too intense. When they weren’t, I threw my underwear to the floor and reached for some water-based lubricant in my night table.
While in some cases, you get what you pay for, “there absolutely are sex toys for under $50 that are safe and well-made,” says Wright. Many of the budget-friendly options below are great for beginners , as luxury toys can have too many intimidating bells and whistles. It’s only about the size of a pinky (3.35 inches) and has 15 vibration patterns for a wide range of sensations.
A classic magic wand vibrator is a must-have for folks who want non-penetrative toys that have tons of power. With options to plug in to the wall, you can forget about worrying about batteries and instead zero in entirely on intense sensations. Simply pop in two AA batteries, and you’re ready to experience this seven-inch-long vibe’s powerful internal and external stimulation. Twist the base to adjust it to your desired setting and you’re good to go. Customers add that it arrives in a discreet box, so you can avoid a potentially awkward interaction with the UPS guy.
Those who prefer direct pressure should opt for a pinpoint or bullet vibrator, while others may like more diffused vibrations that spread across the vulva, which can be achieved by most wand vibes, grinding toys, and palm vibes. If receiving oral sex is your favorite way to get off, consider a clit suction toy or oral sex stimulator. Our best suction toy and our highest scoring vibrator overall, the Next uses innovative 3D pleasure air technology to produce slow, pulsating sensations our testers loved.
With all that loud buzzing, slipping, and readjusting, focusing was not something I was able to do. For the few moments that the vibrator actually did stay in place, it felt really, really good for me. Dave said he barely noticed it, which I’d say is probably the ideal situation for the other person in this scenario. If it had just stayed put, everything would have been smooth sailing. Maybe we’ll give it another go in the future, but for now I’ll stick to using Eva solo.
Generally you don’t need to disinfect toys that only one person uses or that stay covered with condoms. Some nonporous, nonmotorized toys can go into the dishwasher without soap for steam sanitizing. Alternatively, you can boil most nonporous, nonmotorized toys in hot water.
Some women also find smaller toys easier to use or more comfortable than larger ones. The LELO Enigma Double Sonic is a dual-action vibrator that combines external and internal stimulation. Its clitoral stimulator uses SenSonic technology for contactless pleasure viberator, while the insertable arm features DeepSonic waves to target the G-spot and A-spot. The toy boasts eight different vibration patterns, is fully waterproof, and offers up to 2 hours of playtime on a single charge. It offers 10 levels of intensity for the Pleasure Air Control and vibrations, as well as 10 vibration patterns to choose from if that’s your thing, plus buttons to increase and decrease power. The buttons are easy to figure out, but because of where they’re placed and how you have to hold the Enhance to ensure it’s snug against the clitoris, it’s easy to accidentally switch modes and intensities.
Silicone lubricants are great for anal play, but unfortunately they interact negatively with silicone toys. I’m a full-time writer and sex educator who has tested more than 200 different sex toys in the past 25 years. I began blogging about sex toys in 2011, and I worked as a toy tester and copywriter for the retailer The Stockroom for several years. And, like all Magic Wand models, it’s also useful as a whole-body massager. Shopping for sex toys can be intimidating, for first-time buyers and experienced users alike. We talked to sex experts to find out how vibrators can enhance pleasure during both solo and couple play.
Read on to learn why I recommend this multitasker to any pleasure-seeker who is new to sex toys, short on storage space, or otherwise craving variety. I’ve been on the sex toy beat for over a decade, and have tested and reviewed about 400 toys in that time, including over 60 different rabbit vibrators. The ones that stand out to me the most, after testing so many, are those that have a truly great motor (or in some cases, multiple motors), a comfortable shape, and controls that are simple and comprehensible.

Safe-sex practices are important either with a partner or on your own. Ensuring your toys are clean keeps infections at bay and can improve the life-span of your bedroom buddy. Remote control options come with a separate device that offers short-range control or hands-free fun. Meanwhile app-controlled vibrators are ideal for long-distance sessions.
