National Masturbation Month: The history of the vibrator
These small sex toys are designed to slide onto your fingers or sit right between them, allowing you to use one as an extension of your finger. “Finger vibrators are also great for people to extend the experience of their own touch,” says Balestrieri. “Because they are often easy to hold, or slide over a finger, there is less mobility and agility required to access the pleasure of a vibrator. When used via solo sex, a finger vibrator allows you to stay more closely connected to your own sensations and erotic energy because it organically matches your own movements,” she explains. Whether you have a treasure trove of sex toys or this is your first one, finding the best one to suit your needs can be a game-changer for your sex life. Most have a single motor and only one or two buttons to control intensity.
Sure, there’s nothing as quiet as an analog dildo or good ol’ finger, but these toys come pretty close. Plus, if you have limited hand mobility for many reasons, these pleasure aids can be especially beneficial. There are plenty of reasons you might need to shop the best quiet vibrators.
That’s because this soft, sleek, gold-accented toy has — wait for it — more than 30 different functions and 100 different vibration combinations to play around with. Its insertable shaft and two prongs, or “arms,” add to the array of options. To pick the best vibrator products for this list, I started with data on the bestselling vibrators from some of the biggest online adult stores, including Good Vibrations, Babeland and Lovehoney.
A physical remote is like a TV remote, where you can change settings by pressing buttons. A smartphone app allows you to adjust levels and patterns on your phone screen. This flexible and ergonomically designed rabbit dildo syncs with other We-Vibe products, making it a strong choice if you’re in a couple. With a unique suction feature for the clit, Melt’s female customers rave about the sensations it offers. Going for 2 hours on a single charge viberator, the Melt can also go into sleep mode, staying on standby for up to 4 hours. With the ability to both vibrate and rotate, the Lelo IDA is ideal if you’re a heterosexual couple.
Alongside other We-Vibe toys on this list, this Nova 2 toy is fully remotely accessible via the We-Vibe app. Lovense’s most popular offerings for people with penisesis less a penetrative sex simulator and more of a holistic vibrator with mind-blowing constriction that’s temperature-controlled, too. Testers indicated that this gadget felt like a highly customized hand job which set it apart from other sleeves on this list. Alongside the Nora or another Max 2 , Lovense gives you the capability of syncing up each toys to each other’s rhythms and movements, so it truly feels like lovers are experiencing the same eroticism in step with one another. Made in a familiar shape that’s time-honored, this rabbit vibrator brings all the features you already love into the future with Lovense’s mobile application. Designed to pair with the Lovense Max 2 masturbator (featured below), the Nora will respond in real time to thrusts and other motions so that each toy simulates live sex, despite being apart.
While orgasm doesn’t have to be the goal, I personally wasn’t going to come this way as the length of the attachment made it difficult for my clit to reach the vibrating saddle — and I wanted to come. It comes with various attachments suitable for both vaginal and anal penetration. The controller has two settings, one for “buck” and one for “buzz.” The buck setting controls the bucking movement of a dildo attachment while the buzz setting controls the vibrations, in levels that range from one to 11. The Motorbunny Buck is an update on the Motorbunny, which is a vibrating sex saddle. If you’ve never seen one, they look like smaller versions of those mechanical bulls you see in bars.
This cleverly conceived toy is made up of soft, heat-retaining stackable rings that can be placed on the base of the partner who is doing the penetrating; from there, simply adjust so you can control how deep your partner goes. Wyatt also points out that the rings can easily be added or removed to accommodate different positions so that pleasure takes center stage. Researching, discovering and shopping together is part of the fun — so grab your partner and read on to learn more about our top sex toy picks for couples, plus what you should be looking for before buying. As vibrators have become more mainstream, the types of products available have expanded.
