The Best Vibrators for Men Are Ready to Rumble

Dr. Jessica Shepherd, an OB-GYN, says vibrators are not harmful to the genital area if used correctly. However, she notes that if they’re used too aggressively or shared between folks without proper cleaning, there is potential for doing harm. It was loud—a lot louder than I remembered it being when I used it alone. Once we actually started getting into it, with the vibrator squished between us, you couldn’t hear it quite as much. Now that I wasn’t so distracted by all that buzzing, I turned my attention to, ya know, orgasming.

If you’re well-versed in sex toys, you know that a wand vibrator is a must-have for your pleasure tool kit—and if you’re newer to the sex-essories scene, these microphone-shaped devices are a superb place to start. In 2024, there’s no shortage of sex toys to choose from, but the pleasure brought on by the best wand vibrators is second to none. You probably already know and love the Magic Wand vibrator marketed as a „personal massager“ (yeah, right) way back in 1968. It’s since become the little black dress, if you will, of sex toy stashes, but there’s more to the genre than ‚ol faithful. The web is bursting with all sorts of fresh takes on the vibrating wand for your playing pleasure, like toys with up to 20 pulsation modes, two-sided designs, and app-controlled, titillating tech.

And the fun doesn’t have to stop in the shower or bathtub because the Little Secret has a waterproof (IPX7) finish. The premium silicone design, waterproof functionality, USB rechargeability, and 5-year warranty make it a more justifiable investment for those seeking the best in clitoral stimulation. As its name suggests, bullet vibrators are handheld vibrators typically shaped like bullets (and often roughly the same size). Similar to the egg vibrator, bullet vibrators offer pinpointed external stimulation to your erogenous zones, and some models are designed to stimulate the G-spot as well. That’s why we scoured online reviews, consulted with sex therapists and talked to real couples to figure out the best sex toys for long-distance relationships.

You may want to do some research to pick a vibrator that will satisfy your needs, although many vibrators have a variety of possible uses and vibration strength settings. The Ruby Glow Massager contours to your body—one side has raised ridges that you can grind your vulva against vibrators, while the other features a smooth nub that targets your perineum. Each side has its own motor, so “you can either rock back and forth along the toy, or simply sit down on it and let the vibrations do all the leg work,” Finn tells SELF. The Ballerina stays easy to maneuver in any position and can even rest between two bodies without you holding it there. It has 12 different settings, two simple buttons , and is quiet (even at its strongest). I try to keep things simple and stick with vibrators that are USB rechargeable either with USB-A or USB-C.

In addition to 14 speed and intensity settings, ‘climax control’ allows users to play around with the depth of suction, so you’re bound to find something that works for you. Before you purchase a sex toy, check that it’s body-safe (like all of our picks are). Single-use sex toys are “the most underrated option for first-time sex-toy owners,” according to one SELF sexual wellness writer.
