Best vibrators and sex toys for couples 2025, tested by 130 people

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, 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.

It took testers a bit of trial and error to get it right, but the app provided a lot of information on how to use the sex toy, plus how to deploy the hands-free feature. One tester loved how much thought went into the app – you can select preset modes, live control, stories, and even let your partner take control from a distance. Just note, some people did find it was a little too large for them, so keep this in mind before shopping. While most suction vibrators are designed with the clitoris in mind, this Womanizer wand delivers pulsating, massaging air pressure to the G-spot. With 12 intensity levels and three vibrational modes, this impressive gadget also features an “afterglow” function that reverts the toy back to its lowest setting for a gentle comedown after an orgasm.

We’ve scoured our favorite online sex toy shops for vibrators, dildos, penis rings, and other toys that are intuitive to use and more importantly, a lot of fun. Buying a vibrator or other sex toy for the first time can be intimidating, but it doesn’t have to be. In fact, we’d argue that it’s an act of self-care to do some research and consider what types of toys you might like to try.

“This tiny vibrator’s size makes it perfect for partner play, since it can be discreetly slipped into an overnight bag for a spicy sleepover,” says Alvarez Story. Indeed, it’s one of the smallest bullets available that also manages to be decently strong. With one button for toggling through both settings and speeds, it’s easy to use and even waterproof for bathtime fun. While its less-intense settings may not be ideal for those who enjoy (or need) a powerful vibe, my clitoris is incredibly responsive, so the fact that I could use the Vibrato sans-panties was a huge perk for me. I also love that while the handle-turned-dildo portion can vibrate, it only does so when turned on; when it’s not activated, it doesn’t buzz at all. This means when I used the toy as a wand vibrator, my hand didn’t numb out—a common complaint I have with some other vibes.

But if you’ve got a ring that’s flexible enough, like this favorite of Zizelman’s, it can be stretched around the base of your shaft and your balls, increasing its positive effects. “Around the shaft, you are going to get restricted blood flow to help keep a strong and longer-lasting erection,” Zizelman says. But despite the balls and scrotum typically being relegated to a supporting role (if that) in any given sexual encounter, there are countless inventive ways to stimulate them. For instance, cupping them, stroking them, and tugging on them can feel good. Vibrators, cock rings, and ball-stretchers can all create interesting scrotal sensations.

We’re also testing nearly a dozen other vibrators, including the FemmeFunn Ultra Wand viberator, the Satisfyer Pro 2 Generation 3, and Womanizer Next. We’re testing the new Magic Wand Waterproof, a more-powerful (and IPX7-rated) version of our top pick, the Magic Wand Rechargeable. We recommend storing toys in boxes or pouches to keep them dust-free and putting them in a cool, dark place where they will not have exposure to direct sunlight. Many high-end manufacturers include cloth pouches or attractive storage boxes with their toys. The Magic Wand was the only toy in our test group that could consistently bring testers to an intense climax quickly, intuitively, effectively, and predictably.

What is a suction vibrator (or, as most of us will call them clitoral stimulator or suction toys) and how does it work? Well, suction toys use the power of air (or sonic waves, in one case) to create a highly stimulating sensation on and around the clitoris. As you may or may not know, the clitoris is a bigger-on-the-inside marvel of biological machinery that people with vulvas have.

It has eight different vibration settings that you can cycle through via the controls on the handle. They’re somewhat small, so I found myself fumbling with them a bit in the beginning. But once I knew where the buttons were, this issue was easily corrected.

On top of all that, the material felt soft against their skin, and the detailed instructions and diagrams helped them to get the most of out of the device. So, if you’re on board with the concept but don’t know where to start, let us be your guide. The long and short of it , ahem, is that these toys feature two curved appendages (one mini, one biggie) that stimulate two pleasure points simultaneously, otherwise known as dual-stimulation. If you have a vagina, those hotspots will be internal and external—the G-spot and the clitoris—but the shorter end can also be used to stimulate the prostate. This shorter arm is how the toy got its moniker in the first place, since many feature flickering “bunny ears” for textured stimulation that feels good and looks adorable. Bellesa has long been at the forefront of sexual wellness innovation, and WhisperBullet is no exception.

This petite style of vibe, as its name suggests, is small and shaped like a bullet. These are useful for stimulating any external spot that likes vibration, and can fit into small spaces between bodies, making them ideal for pairing with penetrative sex or using with a dildo or strap-on. Usually these vibes are on the weaker side, because their limited size makes it hard to cram a high-powered motor inside, but there are some exceptions.
