22 Best Sex Toys for Couples in 2024, Reviewed by Experts
The first question our reviewers considered when testing each vibrator was what type of physical contact typically turns them on and how well a given toy could replicate that feeling. For a lot of people, that’s going to be direct clitoral stimulation,” says Richmond. Testers who preferred clitoral stimulation and/or were still figuring out what they liked started with some kind of clitoral vibrator that stimulates the vulva externally , Mintz recommends. Reviewers who said they usually had their best orgasms when something (or someone) was penetrating them tested insertable G-spot vibrators instead. And those who love simultaneous external and internal stimulation—specifically, the feeling of being penetrated while having their clitoris touched—tested dual-stimulation toys, like rabbit vibrators.
Besides the convenience of not having to worry about replacing batteries, the rechargeable model was affordable in the long run. Some reviewers pointed out the charging cable was fiddly, and you had to jam it in there a few times to get things right. However, the convenient charging light (image below) made it easy to tell whether or not it was charging.
While it lets you bulk up in a few seconds and indulge in exciting sexual pleasure, it lessens the sensations, and you might have to take it off to climax. In addition, people with a small penis might need penis sleeve inserts to use the sheath. The hollow strap-on was extra thick (evident in the image above), and some people found that it dullened the sensations. While we believe VixSkin designers did a great job at regulating the wearer and receiving partner’s comfort without lessening its efficiency, the abundant material does diminish the quality of sensations. Among the models we tested, VixSkin Colossus was the best performing model, with notable features like the hands-free design.
Something that stood out during testing was the well-thought-out size. The 4-inch long prober provided a good balance so that the sensations were intense while still accommodative. The bulbous body was easy to insert ben wa balls, and the widening shape made the sensations stimulating once the sex toy was inside the anus. We-Vibe specializes in app-controlled toys that are great for those of us in long-distance relationships — or who just love the feeling of giving up a little control in the bedroom. The sleek and tech-savvy toys have found fans around the world, and one of the brand’s bestsellers is the simple yet effective Sync 2.
Generally, the term ‘sleeves’ refers to non-motorized strokers. Sleeves are usually made of a soft material like elastomer (TPE) or liquid silicone and are designed to be placed over the penis during a jack-off session. Rather than using vibration or pulsation to stimulate the penis, sleeves usually feature textured nobs and nodules on their inside. Varying in shape (just like you!) these small but powerful vibrators tantalize the sensitive nerve endings in the clitoris. We chose not to test the since-discontinued Unbound Squish because it appeared to be very similar to the Minna Limon, which also offers programmable stimulation and squeeze-pressure technology.
