Penile Vibratory Stimulation and Electroejaculation
An extra wide mouth on the LELO Sila means this suction toy can travel to so many erogenous zones and caters to all clitoral sizes. Perfect for foreplay or solo play, it easily suctions over the entire clitoris and can even be used on your nipples. Whether you’re a jet setter, searching for the perfect after-dark honeymoon accessory or just don’t want something that screams “sex toy,” this shell-shaped toy is bound to be your new BFF.
Our Good Housekeeping Institute testing panel, made up of over 130 women of all ages and sex toy experience levels, tested a range of vibrators to find the ones worth investing in. Safe-sex practices are important either with a partner or on your own. Ensuring your toys are clean keeps infections at bay and can improve the life-span of your bedroom buddy. Remote control options come with a separate device that offers short-range control or hands-free fun. Meanwhile app-controlled vibrators are ideal for long-distance sessions.
When it comes to design, Shannon suggests thinking about sensations you know you like during solo or partnered sex and looking for a toy that can mimic them. Battery-operated toys are also nice for travel—just take out the batteries, and you won’t have to worry about them accidentally starting up in your bag. Plug-in toys won’t turn on unexpectedly either, but their real claim to fame is their intensity. Since they’re connected directly to a power source, they can provide much stronger vibrations than other models. All of the toys featured in this guide are paired with proprietary mobile apps that can be used to remotely control them from areas way outside the bedroom, often through WiFi-enabled connections. Some of these apps (Lovense Remote, FeelConnect chiefly among them) simply allow you to access your partner’s toy remotely even if you don’t have one yourself.

Unlike the Pom, Mimi can’t bend and doesn’t come with its own pouch.
(BTW, A Roll In The Hay and Oh Joy Sex Toy are two of my favorite reviewers). As fan-freaking-tastic as masturbation is, there’s often an annoying amount of work that goes into solo sex play. Yes, a dynamite vibrator will make the experience easier, but all that maneuvering?
In the best instances, the patch exposed to lube appeared slightly raised; in the worst cases, the lube completely removed the finish from the toy, causing it to become gummy, sticky, and blistered. The staff at Early to Bed replicated our test and found similar results. I received my master of public health degree in 2014 from Indiana University, where I assisted research scientist Debra Herbenick with academic and consumer research related to sex-toy use.
Made from soft silicone, it has five speeds and six patterns for users to enjoy, with most of our testers saying it helped them achieve a stronger orgasm more quickly. To find the top performers, our Good Housekeeping Institute testing panel of 123 women put a range of models to the test. While I easily had sex with my partner during the aforementioned play party, sitting on top of an intensely vibrating machine in front of people I didn’t know felt too exposed for me, for some reason. However, the other people I’d seen trying it out always looked like they’d immensely enjoyed it. That’s why when the opportunity arose for me to try the Motorbunny Buck in my own home, I was stoked.
Equipped with a special gripped design that targets both your G-spot and clitoris, Lovense’s Dolce vibrator comes equipped with two motors for both areas. Testers loved that the toy’s adjustable base allowed them to use this toy hands-free, enabling the Dolce to sit firmly against the skin and fit snugly internally. Its petite size makes it a perfect option for play while away from home, alongside its discreet design profile.
