Sex Toys for Couples: How to Bring Sex Toys Into the Bedroom
Everyone praised the soft, supple material and agreed it was extremely quiet, giving them the confidence to use it with others at home or when travelling. If you love the size and the stimulation provided by beginner bullets, but are in the market for a more sophisticated vibrator, try this lipstick-like option from We-Vibe. Lovehoney received rave reviews when it first brought out the Rose Clitoral Suction Stimulator, and it recently revisited the original design to add some bells and whistles – or to be exact, a G-spot egg.
Clitoral suction stimulators are designed to replicate the sensation of oral sex, and this winning Womanizer toy is a top-tier option. Every product below has been tested by at least five people, who made sure it lived up to any claims made on the box. This included trying every speed setting, vibration type and any accompanying apps, as offered by toys like Lovense’s App-Controlled Love Egg Vibrator. Hard plastic and silicone toys are easiest to clean with anti-bacterial soap and cool or warm water.

Some vibrators have forked ends that sit against either side of the clitoris, almost like a cradle or tuning fork, that are made specifically for people who like direct and intense vibration viberator, Hodder says. Others have a scoop-like end that almost cups the clitoris for a “surround sound” type of stimulation. Some are textured with ridges or little nubs and others have thin, flexible fin-like extensions that flutter. The Vibrato has three buttons, which allow you to control each end of the toy separately. While I love that the vibrator’s dual motors can be operated independently, there is a learning curve to figuring out which buttons do what.
When I removed the Mini from my neck, I could easily hold it between my index and middle finger—I have small hands—and it couldn’t be seen. In fact, the only time the Vesper Mini might become indiscreet is if you play with it in public. That’s why I kept my Mini time behind closed doors, having never been much of an exhibitionist. While both the Vesper and Vesper 2 have four vibration intensities to choose from, the pattern setting on the newer model is now a wave-like sensation as opposed to the original’s pulsing.
Phthalates have come under fire for their potential to affect human health (the scientific jury is still out, according to the CDC) but in the name of “better safe than sorry,” you can easily find sex toys that are phthalate-free. This is any vibrator designed specifically to make the outside of your body feel incredible. People typically use them on their clitoris, labia, and vulva, but you can try them for external stimulation on any part of your body you like.
With its Pleasure Air technology, it provides gentle suction to your clit, giving you the feeling of being wrapped in a cloud of pleasure. Plus, it’s designed to fit snugly between partners so you can both enjoy the 12 intensity levels while getting busy. This dual-ended remote control vibrator offers clitoral and G-spot stimulation, plus an adjustable neck to fit you in all the right ways. Plus, Dolce’s dual motors make it more powerful than most other vibrators on the market. Whether you realize it or not , there are many situations in which knowing how to convert household items into homemade sex toys is a real plus. Maybe you’re away from home and realize you’re without your favorite sex toy; maybe things have gotten heated and you don’t have time to hunt for a vibrator; maybe you’re looking to try a new kink without investing much money.
The Volta definitely involves a bit of a learning curve, and it’s probably a better choice for advanced sex-toy users. The Inmi Vibrassage series features three vibrator models, each of which uses three individual tendrils to stimulate the clitoris. The two models we tested, the Fondle and the Caress, each have one stationary vibrating leg and two legs that rotate in circular motions to stimulate the clitoris. We preferred the longer handle of the Fondle, which made it easier and more ergonomically comfortable to use. Both testers who tried these toys said that using them involved a learning curve, and while one tester enjoyed the novel sensations and achieved orgasm using them, our other tester could not, even after multiple sessions.
When I first got my hands on one shortly after Vesper hit the market, I was blown away by the concept. It was a symbol of sex positivity, a reminder that owning our sexual pleasure is an essential facet of being human—plus it’s a great conversation starter. It also made me feel like I belonged to a private club, especially if I ran into someone else rocking one around their neck.
“It’s simple but effective, washable, and inexpensive… A nice starting point for most guys,” he says. Like the Tenga Egg (more on that below), this toy is designed to be disposable, but can be used up to a few times if you wash and dry it properly between uses. This particular one has a multi-chambered texture on the inside that’s meant to mimic the sensations of a deep-throat blowjob. For an even more realistic oral-esque sensation, you can cover up the air hole on one end using your finger, to introduce some suction into each stroke.
