Medical grade is a label you’ll see pretty often

Meet the smart vibrator that wants to help you get better at getting off

Then there are the health benefits of staying sexually active – many of which are backed by scientific studies and research. Masturbating to orgasm has a significant positive impact on one’s mood and stress levels, and can even help relieve pain and improve sleep. Reaching orgasm releases hormones like endorphins, oxytocin, and serotonin, helping promote the above-listed benefits. Medical grade is a label you’ll see pretty often, but if it’s not backed up with the specific regulatory body or testing standard used to determine that it’s medical grade, it leaves me wondering why that hasn’t been disclosed. If the manufacturer specifies which kind of silicone it uses, we will list it in the product description. It just means the specific kind used in that toy isn’t listed or hasn’t been provided to us.

There are no less than 20 functions to explore, with something for all preferences, and the device can be used in the shower or bath. The best G-spot vibrators are specifically designed to stimulate your internal pleasure points, which can increase the intensity of orgasms for some. The Le Wand Stroke Attachment transforms your massager into one of the most rumbly strokers around. He’s also a fan of the open-ended design, which fits a wide range of bodies. A corded wand offers consistent intensity, and you never have to think about charging it—the downside is you’ll need to be near an outlet. This might not be a big deal when you’re using it by yourself at home, but it can be a pain when you’re switching positions with a partner or going abroad (where you might need an adapter).

Keep your pleasure indulgences simple with this well-reviewed streamlined G-spot vibrator from Lelo. The Gigi 2 features a simple and elegant design with a flattened tip that channels deep G-spot massage. Though research is still underway regarding the G-spot, we do know that for many women it’s a pleasure center—located about two inches into the vagina up towards the belly button—that feels incredible when stimulated.

The same goes for the phallus—the erectile tissue goes deep into your body, and stimulating it with a vibrator can provide a new and exhilarating experience. For vibrators, you want them to be made with 100 percent platinum-cured silicone and/or ABS plastic. Hard glossy plastic is OK for parts that don’t touch your genitals, but platinum silicone is nonporous, easy to clean, and body-safe. Unlike lesser grades of silicone, platinum silicone doesn’t give off any weird smells or compounds that may be unpleasant or even harmful to your genitals. That’s because it’s chemically different from other kinds of silicone. Surgical steel (also called 316 stainless steel), and borosilicate glass are just as body-safe, durable, and nonporous but less common in vibrators and more common in dildos.

While it’s on the pricey side, it has 20 different vibration patterns and 10 intensity levels (that’s more than most other vibes on this list). Plus, five hours of run time on a single charge is pretty impressive. This rechargeable vibe is similar to the Magic Wand in lots of ways—with a powerful motor , large head, and intuitive buttons—but has a sleeker package. It “feels like a little bit of luxury,” Shadeen Francis viberators, LMFT, an AASECT-certified sex therapist, tells SELF. If you’re impressed by a sex toy that has multiple functions, you’ll love the Satisfyer Partner Multifun 3, which Wyatt rates as one of her favorite choices for couples — especially those who want to get creative with sex play.

The last thing anyone wants to do during sex is troubleshoot gadgets. It features a dual motor; one in the bendable shaft and the other in the ‘rabbit ears’. This helped most of our testers have a more intense orgasm with half reaching climax faster than normal.

These are some of the least obtrusive vibrators on the market, because they can make it feel like you’re just touching your partner with your fingers, which happen to be vibrating. They’re typically not the most powerful, but their versatility and ease of use make up for that. The Wild Flower Enby 2 (currently unavailable) is a versatile vibrator that can be used both by people with penises and people with vulvas. Shaped like a miniature bicycle seat, the Enby 2 features a vibrating protrusion that expands out to a flexible, flat, triangular silicone surface that transmits the vibrations. We like the concept, and we found the vibrations to be plenty strong.

Historically, there’s been a lot of mystery and mysticism surrounding the infamous G-spot. Here, we asked sex experts about all the ins and outs of G-spot stimulation and the best G-spot vibrators and sex toys for the job. Thanks to this vibrator, first-timers can finally enjoy both external and internal stimulations whenever they please. You’ll fall in love with its velvety-soft silicone feel that’s been constructed using premium silicone polished for the smoothest touch. Choose from four speeds and two pulsation modes, and enjoy up to four hours of strong rumbling vibrations.
