Here are five sex toys that go above and beyond to reliably give you the erotic pleasure you’ve been craving, without the perils of dating and relationships. Have some water-based lube handy, and get ready to spend some quality time with these toys that are so good you may never want to leave your bed!

• The Magic Wand is the OG of vibrators. It was the first, and remains (arguably) the best wand-style vibrator on the market for over fifty years. Sure it’s kinda ugly, but you won’t care once you’ve experienced how quickly this super powerful vibrator can get you over the edge! The strong “rumbly” vibrations are capable of reaching clitoral nerves deep within the pelvic floor (did you know that 90% of the clitoris is actually internal?), guaranteeing an intense orgasm virtually every time. The rechargeable version can be used with or without the cord and offers 4 vibration intensities, 4 vibration patterns, and an easy-to-clean silicone head. The toy can also be used with attachments to convert it into a G-spot stimulator, penile sleeve, or even a dual-stimulating “rabbit” style vibrator.

• Although it may look more like a modern art sculpture than a sex toy, Njoy’s The Pure Wand one of the best insertable toys for stimulating the G and A spots in the vagina, as well as the prostate during anal play. This 8” long curved stainless steel wand is tipped with two round balls (measuring 1” and 1.5” in diameter respectively), and weighs a hefty 1.5 pounds. The firmness and curved shape of this toy allows it to deeply massage internal pleasure points in a way that fingers or a penis cannot. Many people with vulvas report being able to “squirt” (aka “female ejaculation”) for the first time after using this toy, because of the intensity of the G-spot stimulation it provides.

• Clitoral suction toys provide a different type of stimulation than traditional vibrators. These toys generally have a small opening or “mouth” that fits snugly over the clitoris, applying a gentle air suction that many people compare to the feeling of oral sex. The cute and affordable “Rose Toy” suction vibrator pioneered by Adorime (and imitated by many other brands) has gone viral on social media for a reason, with users claiming it can “snatch your soul” with the pleasure it provides. And yes, it lives up to the hype! Just make sure you purchase this toy from a reputable retailer, as there are many sketchy knock-offs for sale on Amazon.

• The sleek Kiroo Pearl2 G-Spot Vibrator is great both as an insertable G-Spot stimulator or an external clitoral vibrator. It’s super easy to use, with a single-button console, and the vibrations are so powerful that there’s no need to thrust: it does all the work while you lay back and relax. This toy was developed in tandem with an app called FeelMe that allows you to sync the toy with porn and VR content if you are feeling adventurous!

• If you enjoy blended clitoral/g-spot orgasms, Inmi Shegasm 5 Star 10X Rabbit is a dream come true, combining powerful clitoral suction with an internal “thumping” mechanism that stimulates the g spot. You can literally insert this toy and let it do all the work. The suctioning mechanism helps it stay in place, so you have both hands free to peruse porn, read erotica, or stimulate other erogenous zones.

This is just a starting point! We encourage you to experiment with different toys to find your “happy place” that enables you to achieve the pleasure you desire, time after time!
