How to Clean a Vibrator and Other Sex Toys Safely
With more than 150 electric models to choose from, VIBCO has an electric vibrator to suit your specific needs including adjustable speed and force, heavy duty, high frequency and explosion proof models. VIBCO’s Big BerthaTM Dumpbody Vibrators and SandBusterTM Spreader Hopper Vibrators are perfect for trucking and mobile applications. Given that buying three separate gadgets that perform the functions of the Vibrato would total over $300, I argue that the Vibrato is well worth its price point. Plus, I’m now willing to spend extra just to keep my sex toy collection a little more manageable.
Clitoral suction stimulators are designed to replicate the sensation of oral sex, and this winning Womanizer toy is a top-tier option. Every product below has been tested by at least five people, who made sure it lived up to any claims made on the box. This included trying every speed setting, vibration type and any accompanying apps, as offered by toys like Lovense’s App-Controlled Love Egg Vibrator. Hard plastic and silicone toys are easiest to clean with anti-bacterial soap and cool or warm water.
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, 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.
If you shop online, you have a huge selection, and you don’t have to worry about anyone peering over your shoulder. Go to websites that are really great at providing educational/expert information with their toys, like Babeland, Good Vibrations, Ella Paradis or Lovehoney. Some sites even give you the option to chat with a live representative who can answer your questions. Also, for all modes, music is available to create a relaxing atmosphere. The main distinguishing feature is that the app also works when the screen is off. It provides a convenient and portable massage solution, making it perfect for on-the-go relaxation or relieving muscle tension throughout the day.
Another key facet of using any vibrator is keeping it nice and clean, to avoid bacteria buildup and infection. “For toys with motors, you can use fragrance-free soap and water or toy cleaner,” Eva Sweeney, a sex toy reviewer, educator, and founder of Cripping Up Sex with Eva, previously told Allure. You can spritz the toy with a bit of warm soapy water, or, if it’s waterproof, you can soak it in the sink for a few moments. And, like all LELO sex toys, the Ora 3 is so elegantly designed that you can leave it out on your nightstand and people will assume it’s simply a beautiful sculpture…maybe. The G-spot, the P-spot, the A-spot—no matter which internal spot you’re looking to stimulate, there’s probably an insertable vibrator that’s up to the task.
Phthalates have come under fire for their potential to affect human health (the scientific jury is still out, according to the CDC) but in the name of “better safe than sorry,” you can easily find sex toys that are phthalate-free. This is any vibrator designed specifically to make the outside of your body feel incredible. People typically use them on their clitoris, labia, and vulva, but you can try them for external stimulation on any part of your body you like.
Some vibrators have forked ends that sit against either side of the clitoris, almost like a cradle or tuning fork, that are made specifically for people who like direct and intense vibration, Hodder says. Others have a scoop-like end that almost cups the clitoris for a “surround sound” type of stimulation. Some are textured with ridges or little nubs and others have thin, flexible fin-like extensions that flutter. The Vibrato has three buttons vibrators, which allow you to control each end of the toy separately. While I love that the vibrator’s dual motors can be operated independently, there is a learning curve to figuring out which buttons do what.
