18 Best Sex Toys for Beginners That Anyone Can Master

This stroker is so high-tech, it makes a standard Fleshlight look like a lubed-up toilet paper roll. The Lovense Max offers not only a pleasurably textured interior, but also vibration that surrounds your dick, and rhythmic contractions that squeeze and massage it. If you prefer gentler, pinpointed stimulation, the Lelo Dot may be the best choice for you. The teardrop-shaped Dot looks a bit odd at first glance, but its accessible design offers focused clitoral stimulation. There’s nothing worse than fumbling around with buttons while you’re trying to get in the zone, either alone or with a partner.

“You’ll be surprised by how much this tiny, unobtrusive thing can do,” Weiss says of longtime fan-favorite, the Crave Vesper. The fact that it doubles as sleek, chic, eye-catching jewelry is the cherry on top of the sundae. Check that you’re happy with the size – it may be bigger or smaller than you thought. If there’s a vibe gathering dust underneath your bed right now (no judgement), adding an attachment can make a huge difference. The original Magic Wand is corded, so it will never die on you in the middle of a session (so not cool). But if you don’t have an outlet nearby, you may want to try the brand’s rechargeable model instead.

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.

Its run time on a full charge is relatively short at just one hour, though, so make sure you’re never too far away from the charger. Lovers may come and go, but you can always count on the best clitoral vibrators to get you off whenever you please. Yes, there are tons of sex toys made for G-spot stimulation like rabbit vibrators and dildos. But for people who can only (or simply prefer to) orgasm through clitoral stimulation, or are looking for devices that mimic oral sex, there are more high-quality external titillation options than ever. The Lovense Lush 3 is one of the best hands-free sex toys, hands down (pun intended).

Jawed-Wessel, whose area of research expertise is postpartum sex , likes Lelo’s clitoral vibrators, “which are perfect for the woman who doesn’t even want to be reminded of vaginal penetration,” she says. The nipples are very sensitive, so showing them some attention can be an exciting way to bring more pleasure to solo or partner sex. This is super lightweight, so you can really focus on the sensations, plus there are five modes to find your ideal intensity. And don’t be afraid to explore beyond the breasts — try tickling around the vulva or penis to see what feels good. Introducing hands-free vibration during sex can enhance things for both you and your partner, and this is a good first option for people who haven’t experimented with wearable toys before (just note that it may feel snug at first).

Palm vibrators are named for the fact that they fit into, yep, the palm of your hand. Most have a slightly curved shape that enables them to rest on your vulva hands-free when you’re lying down, Wright says. Since they have a larger surface area than some other toys, they can diffuse sensations across the vulva viberators, beyond the clit. This egg vibrator has a rounded shape for easy entry into the vagina, as well as a silicone loop for seamless removal. Thanks to the motion sensors in the remote control, you can shift between eight patterns and different speeds just by tilting your hand.

But the vibrator bends exactly the way you want it, so you can hit just the right spots. This Je Joue option (as its name indicates) is the love-child of the classic rabbit and fun-sized bullet vibrator, with ears that flutter against or hug the clit for orgasmic ripples. Just shy of four inches long, it’s ideal for when you want all the clitoral stimulation of a rabbit vibe in a pocket-friendly size. “Don’t be fooled by how cute this toy is—the low rumble of Je Joue’s motor packs some serious power for an intense climax,” Babeland brand manager Lisa Finn previously told SELF. Just note that, unlike other rabbit vibrators, this one doesn’t target the G-spot. A favorite of sex-toy blogger Epiphora, the bejeweled pastel Pillow Talk Sassy is affordably priced and offers powerful vibrations that can work for either clitoral or G-spot stimulation.
