Vibrators- The Best & The Rest
 
        A Look Into Why We Love Them With Recommendations

Vibrators are the most popular sex toy around. The pulsating hum placed against a sensitive body part such as a nipple, clitoris, penis, or even that delicate anus can be riveting!

Did you know women can achieve orgasms up to ten times faster by using a vibrator on her most sensitive body part… the clit. It's true! In addition, a woman who uses a vibrator before having sex is more likely to have multiple orgasms from penetration. The vibration from the vibrator increases blood flow and engorges the vaginal walls and g-spot allowing for more intense pleasure and the likelihood of breathtaking orgasms!

Flavored Lubricant Reviews

Men also benefit as the vibrations can bring that erection to a glass cutting hardness! A man's orgasm can be magnified greatly from that level of stimulation created much the same way a woman's juices get flowing.

Vibrators are also great for people who experience lack of sex drive. This is because vibrators stimulate blood flow and increase feelings of pleasure in the sex organs in a manner that sends messages to the brain saying "hey this feels awesome… I want more!"

The variety and function capable of today's vibrators is astonishing. Low cost and high powered vibrators are easily obtained from the privacy of your own home and are a must have for the solo masturbation session to the passionate exchange of pleasuring your lover.

Yet, there are so many to choose from and finding the right one can feel overwhelming. That is why you will find an easy to follow guide below to help you take the guess work out of it and get you on your way to the fun stuff!

What To Watch Out For

There are a lot of vibrators that are made as a novelty and break easily so it is important to choose wisely, selecting from a reputable store with high quality products like ours. The most important thing when buying a vibrator online is knowing the SIZE. Please refer to our measurements outlined by each of the products so that you do not get something that is too big or small.

Determining Size

Sometimes it is hard to gage what is the best size. I remember ordering my first dildo online and then getting one that was supposed to be "realistic" and ended up thinking that King Kong himself would be envious when I saw how big it actually was!

 

May I suggest using a simple test of finger width or vegetable testing before deciding on a width or length. Using your fingers or a vegetable like a carrot or cucumber may help you decide what width and length to get.

You should certainly wash anything you insert in any orifice of your body prior and then take some time to determine what will bring you the most pleasure. You can also have a partner assist in either exercise for a fun sexual adventure!

Diameter Vs. Circumference

Also, remember the difference between circumference and diameter when assessing how large your sex toy is going to be.

 

 

Power & Functioning

How powerful do you want your vibrator to be? Power can make all the difference in the world. It affects the intensity of stimulation and can mean the difference between reaching orgasm and not.


Some vibrators are more powerful than others. There are two factors that will affect the power of a vibrator; how many volts it uses and the motor and components. The volts can be determined by how many batteries are required or if it is electric or rechargeable, you can assume that it is 120 volt (for a plug made for US outlets). Some products are made to be more durable than others. Typically, the better quality materials a product is made from the better the components and motor will be.

While some companies charge a lot of money for products regardless of quality, you can easily determine what are the higher quality products on our website. You can choose a high quality product by the price and through our sex toy materials guide that outlines why the materials of the products we offer are better than others. The old adage of you get what you pay for is true on our web sites.

When considering the power of vibrators, it is important to recognize that battery operated vibrators are less powerful than electric vibrators that plug in. Also, rotating vibrators are sensitive to too much pressure on them that can keep them from working properly.

If you have a rotating vibrator like many of the dual action vibrators you may notice that if you clench or grip the rotating shaft too hard it may stop working. These types of toys are intended for rotating inside when someone is relaxed and while they can withstand some pressure, they are not intended to be used under a great deal of pressure. If you clench your Kegel muscles around them, you may notice that they slow or stop. If you prefer a rotating sex toy that can withstand a lot of pressure, then you will need to invest in something like a sex machine such as the Sybian, However, most people find these sex toys suit their needs perfectly and understand their limitations. Normal pressure on them does not impair their intended functioning and they do provide wonderful stimulation.

 

How Your Vibrator Is Powered

Do you prefer something that requires batteries, is rechargeable or plugs in? There are pros and cons to each-

Battery Pros & Cons
A sex toy that requires batteries affords the user to operate without cords and provides a larger variety of sex toys to choose from as most require batteries. These can be costly if not using rechargeable batteries by having to keep replacing them. These can be bad for recycling purposes if you use non-recyclable batteries and therefore bad for the environment. We recommend getting rechargeable batteries to counter the cons if you get a battery operated sex toy.

Rechargeable Pros & Cons
Rechargeable sex toys do not require batteries and are therefore, better for the environment and less expensive to maintain. Depending on the quality of the toy, they may not hold the charge for long. These may also require long charging periods and may not work unless fully charged; making it important to plan on having it charged before your next use. Some rechargeable may not allow you to use it while it is charging.

Plug In Pros & Cons
Electric sex toys are often some of the most powerful vibrators and offer a deep vibration that others cannot compare to. You do not have to worry about costly batteries, the effect of batteries on the environment or planning to make sure your toy is charged. These can limit how far you can move around (we recommend getting an extension cord). The cord may get tangled or get in the way during wild sexual adventures. These also cannot ever get wet as they may create the risk of electrical shock. We recommend wiping down with a moist wash cloth when it is unplugged that has been sprayed with sex toy cleaner.

 

 

Figuring Out The Best Vibration Level-

This is a question that is completely subjective, however, we will provide factors in choosing a vibrator that many often do not consider. You should explore these factors before your purchase a vibrator so that you will better be able to select the perfect sex toy for you or your lover.

Vibrations-

There are variations to vibrators that go beyond just how powerful a motor is capable of functioning. Just because something has a higher or lower level of power does not mean it stops there when it comes to one's preference.

Noise Level -

Noise factors affect the pitch and power of a vibrator is when it comes to the type of vibration it will offer. The reason this can be a factor is because often manufacturer will do everything they can to make a vibrator quiet as that is how most customers prefer it. However, in doing so they must often add sound barriers that keep the vibrator from having the internal components vibrate. This will impact the level of sensation that one can feel on the surface of the vibrator and may reduce the power. However, one of the most powerful vibrators on the market is so quiet that you can barely tell it is on, so it really is in how a vibrator is designed that will affect it's noise and power.

Pitch-

By pitch of vibration, we mean the difference between something that is low pitched where the vibrator gives of a base vibration. This is a deeper type of vibration and often comes in the form of a larger vibrator. It does not necessarily mean that it is less powerful than one that is high pitched, rather it is much like putting you hand on the hood of a muscle car that has a low base vibration in it's engine versus your hand on the hood of a fast smaller car. They both can pack a punch, and can go very fast, they just have a different feel to them and we refer to this as pitch.

Power & Material-

Vibrators can have many different levels of power and this is dependent upon the size of the vibrator and the level of power source that it receives. This is then impacted by the material that surrounds the motor as well as it's location. A powerful motor in a silicone vibrator may get muffled because the silicone does not conduct vibration as easily as Elastomer or plastic. Therefore, looking at not only the power of a motor can be just as important as what materials are used to make the product.

Location of the Motor-

It is important to also consider that if a vibrator's power is located in the base, you may not feel it in the tip of the product nearly as much. However, if it is conducting through something like Elastomer and vinyl this may not be as much of an issue as opposed to silicone or rubber. Taking into account all factors or construction is important.

Personal Sensitivity-

Women are not created equal. It is true, that some women have less nerve endings in their clitoris than others, but this factor is not the only thing one must consider when choosing a vibrator based on physical factors. How accessible the clitoris is, size and hood covering can also impact how well the clitoris is stimulated. Finally, some women prefer different sides of their clitoris stimulated, while others prefer direct contact with or without the hood covering it. It truly comes down to personal preference and comes from time experimenting.

Exploration-

We encourage women to take time to explore their bodies through masturbation using their fingers to determine what level of stimulation is preferred as this will help determine what type of vibrator will work best.

Contact Us With Questions-

We also encourage those who are buying a vibrator for the first time or have questions as to what type would be best based on sexual goals to call or email us before you make your purchase as we are happy to make recommendations based on your desires.

 

Battery Tip

Vibrators that use batteries often suggest taking the batteries out in between use… this is a good tip as it helps prolong the life of the vibrator and prevents the batteries from leaking causing damage to your vibrator.

 

 

What Pleasures You?

There is nothing quite like the humming of a vibrator between your legs… but there are some questions you may want to ask yourself before choosing one. Do you want one that allows you to be hands free, vary the speed and intensity, with or without a remote control, small or large, and/or have one attach to a partner to pleasure you? Below you will find a review of some of the basic features of vibrators that will help you better answer these questions and get you on your way to experiencing erotic vibrations!

 

G-Spot & Prostate Vibrators

G-spot vibrators are not only great for g-spot stimulation but for prostate stimulation as well. Curved vibrators designed for internal penetration that targets and stimulates a woman's g-spot or man's prostate. They are usually long and slim with a curved tip and make access to the g-spot and prostate easy. Many know that finger play can get tiring and these vibrating stimulators are pleasurable for a partner or solo experience. This is a basic sex toy that everyone should have!

Gspot & Prostate Vibrators

 

 

Clitoral Vibrators

Any woman who has tried a vibrator on her clit will tell you that it is heaven. Some women favor stimulation to one side, while others like direct contact. Many vibrators can stimulate the clit, yet we have toys especially for explosive clitoral orgasms!

Nonetheless, it is a sure winner in the pleasure department. Also, as previously mentioned, it brings a women to climax much more quickly and allows her g-spot and vaginal walls to become more sensitive when used prior to penetration from her lover or a toy. Of course you can always combine your pleasure by getting vibrators that multitask… like the dildo/clit stimulator vibrator for more intensity.

Clitoral Vibrators

One of the more popular clitoral vibrators is the bullet, which is usually 2-4 inches in length. These egg-shaped wonders can ignite the clitoris, labia, anus, nipples and head of a penis like a charm. Other lucky body parts can also benefit from these little hummers.

Most often these pleasure eggs are attached to a multiple speed battery pack connected by a long cord. One of my first vibrators, I can attest that these will bring hours of fun. Other types are the strap-on vibrators (Venus Bumble Bee, Penis Petal) that come with elastic straps to hold it over the clitoris for a hands-free, more mobile stimulation or come attached to a vibrating and/or rotating dildo.

 

 

Penis Vibrators (Cock Rings & Masturbation Sleeves)

These can take the form of a ring that encircles the base of a male's penis allowing him to experience vibrating ecstasy. Others like this have an additional attachment that allows a male to stimulate his female partner's clit with a vibrator as well. There are also vibrating pussy sleeves, ball holders and for the adventurous male who knows how good prostate stimulation feels there are the vibrating dildos and slim models. All in all a lot to choose from for the man who wants it all.

Anal Vibrators

A lot more people enjoy anal play than you may think. While anal play is still something that some people may be wary about, many are enjoying this pleasure zone and loving every minute of it.

If you are one already enjoying it, than you will agree when I say that the stimulation of a vibrator on your anus is fabulous.

Anal Vibrators

If you haven't yet tried anal play, but are curious about what it feels like, you might consider trying an anal toy like a vibrator. It's a good way to find out if you like anal stimulation, without having to worry about being embarrassed. For simple "rim" stimulation a bullet or slim vibrator is simply heaven. For penetration, a Cyberskin, or g-spot vibrator is a great way to go.

 

 

Nipple Vibrators

These are vibrating clamps that squeeze and stimulate the nipples. Some have adjustable settings so the pressure can be customized or varied as well as the speed of the vibrations.

Nipple clamps can also be used on other areas of the body, such as the labia lips, ball sack, ear lobes... well you get the idea. It's a good idea to test the clamps on the skin of the inner wrist or the webbing between the thumb and forefinger, to get an accurate "reading" of the level of intensity. If it's bearable and tolerable within that threshold of pain/pleasure, they should be fine for the nipples or labia or balls!

Controls

Basic "On-Off" Controller

This is one of the most basic of controls on a vibrator and is simply an "on-off" control found on the base or hand control of a vibrator. While this simplicity allows a user to not have to think about anything more than turning their vibrator on, it may not be the ideal choice for someone who wants to adjust the speed to find just the right stimulation for them or to vary the intensity during use.

Multiple Speed Controller

This type of vibrator (such as the Berry Delight) allows you to adjust the level of speed to adjust the intensity. Some people prefer the more subtle vibrations while others want pure power to get them going, thus having the ability to customize the level of intensity is a nice feature. Another advantage is being able to start out slow and advance into more intense stimulation as you or your partner become more aroused.

Multiple Function Controllers

There are many types of vibrators and some have multiple features. For example you might find something like our dual action vibes that acts as a rotating dildo with a jelly lined vibrator curved to stimulate the clitoris. Most people multi-task in their work all day… why not do it when you are ready to have some fun too!

Hand Controller

The hand-held control connects to the vibrator by a wire which allows one to adjust the speed without moving the vibrator away from the sweet spot that is being happily stimulated. These are very common on "bullet" vibrators and many people like them because they are small and discreet and do not require an outlet to play! The one main drawback to the handheld is that it is not recommended for water use and the cord can sometimes get in the way when a partner is involved.

Remote Control

The remote control vibrator is great for partner play as well as solo. Imagine you have your sweetie on a wireless remote totally at your command to experience pleasure and increase it at the right moment while you move around the room. Whether you are stimulating the clitoris, anus or other lucky body part… this is a wild ride in the technologically advanced world of vibrators.

Electric Plug-In Fun

This is a personal favorite because like many women, I love a deep wet orgasm brought on by the more intense vibrations that these plug-in versions give. Batteries can not make up for the power that an electrical outlet can bring you. You can find a few varieties… some require being plugged in at all times, while other's just need to charge. The larger versions also double as a whole body massager and are especially nice on the back and shoulders.

The Buzzzzz On Noise

A drawback to using a vibrator discreetly is that they hum and sometimes loudly! Usually this is not a dilemma, but if you have a roommate or kids you may feel a bit self conscious about using it. There are vibrators that are quieter than others, and doing things like having music on or using them under the sheets does help drown out the noise. Bottom line, all vibrators make a certain amount of noise but a good rule of thumb is that a plastic vibrator will tend to be noticeably louder noise than a latex or Cyberskin covered vibrator.

There are a few vibrators that are so quiet that we could not even tell they where on! Here is a list of our most quiet-

Examples Of Vibrator Types

Vibrating & Ben Wa Balls

Based on a 1,000 year old Asian sex toy (Ben Wa Balls), are usually a pair of hollow balls and have something inside that rolls around inside them, creating vibration and stimulation to the g-spot or prostate. However, they are now available with vibrating motors in them for an even more intense stimulation.

Women have also used them to strengthen their vaginal muscles (primarily the Kegel muscle, which enhances a woman's pleasure for stronger contractions during an orgasm and man's pleasure when his penis is gripped harder during sex.

Vibrating Bullets

Usually 2-4 inches these egg-shaped wonders can ignite the clitoris, labia, anus, nipples and head of a penis like a charm. Other lucky body parts can also benefit from these little hummers. Most often these charmers are attached to a multiple speed battery pack connected by a long cord. One of my first vibrators; I can attest that these will bring hours of fun.

Bullet & Bead Vibrators

 

 

Cyberskin

If you have not felt CyberSkin you are in for a real treat. When you combine this amazingly life like material with a vibrator… baby, you've got to make sure to schedule some recovery time from the pleasure it will bring you!

The first time I felt CyberSkin it was in the form of a sleeve over a slim vibrator. I could not believe it… I literally had goose bumps. I almost felt naughty touching what felt like a real erect penis. I also took the time to feel a CyberSkin pussy and it too gave me shivers of sexual delight!

Cyberskin Dildos

CyberSkin comes in all kinds of forms… various body parts (breasts, vagina, penis, and anus) to accessories on vibrators, dildos and more. If you are looking for something that will feel like the real thing with an added bonus of it vibrating look no further you have found the toy of your dreams!

 

 

Erection Enhancers

Vibrating cock rings are unique sex toys in the sense that they essentially act as blood flow "restrictors". They are worn at the base of the penis and are designed to heighten and prolong an erection, as well as intensify orgasms. Great for partners as it engorges the cock making it harder and bigger.

Cock Rings & Penis Sleeves

 


Finger Vibrators

These are newer to the vibrator family. They usually come in the form of a glove and fit on two to three fingers allowing the vibration to come through the padding on your fingers as you manually stimulate. Those that have tired it for all over body stimulation including the traditional sweet spots of the clitoris, anus, nipples, etc. have given it rave reviews.

Finger Sex Toys

 


Traditional

Straight or curved, these can act as a g-spot and prostate stimulator as well as a dildo when a sleeve is added. These usually have a twist control at the base and offer a vibrating shaft for a variety of pleasure points on the body.

Traditional Vibrators

 


Strap-ons

Strap-on vibrators vary. Some come in the form of a clitoral vibrator with elastic straps to hold it over the clitoris for a hands-free, more mobile stimulation, while others are vibrating dildos, or cock rings. Strap-Ons are great for allowing one to be spontaneous in their movement while getting and/or giving pleasure to their lover.

Waterproof Vibrators

These vibrators are not only portable and versatile they can be used in the bath, hot tub, pool, ocean… well you get the picture, they can get wet! Covered with waterproof material these vibrators make ripples of fun.

Sex Toy Machines

Men & Women can experience intense and multiple orgasms easily. Whether your partner likes to watch, is out of town, is tired, or you simply do not have one at the moment, these dildo & vibrator machines go from gentle to intense, as they allow one to determine their orgasmic potential. Multiple orgasms are easily experienced as they allow for controlled levels of stimulation using realistic attachments that match their partner while providing endurance and vibration that a partner cannot provide.

Quick Tips -

Always make sure you have secured the batteries tightly inside to reduce the risk of water leaking in from a loose cover. For a lubricant, use a silicone based one as water based lubricants will just dissolve in water.

 

 

Must Have Accessories

After you have selected one or more vibrators that are ideal for your needs, you will want to make sure you have the right accessories-

Batteries -

There is nothing quite as disappointing as getting all worked up only to discover you don't have batteries for your sex toy. Make sure to have not only what you need to operate your toy but a stock supply to keep you happy and carefree.

Lubricant -

Even if you are already lubricated from your body's own juices a vibrator will actually feel more intense when it is lubricated with a water or silicone based lube. Also see our lubricant reviews.

Toy Cleaner -

Buying a cleaner just for your sex toys is a good idea because these specially designed disinfectants will clean your toys while preventing damage to the type of plastic, gel, or other sensitive materials of which your toys are made. Also killing bacteria and viruses can prevent infection and the spread of STDs while keeping your toys fresh and smelling good.
