The Comprehensive Guide to Vibrators

Vibrators are simple but effective sex toys that deliver direct stimulation to the erogenous zones. They come in all shapes, and each one gives an exciting buzz, hum, sucking or throbbing sensation. Vibrators are the ideal sex toy for solo play and help you to orgasm quickly. Some fit into the vagina, while others are for external stimulation.

These sex toys are also ideal for couples to use during foreplay and add extra spice to your bedroom games. In addition, vibrating sex toys are perfect for nipple play and perineum play.

Different Vibrator Materials

The materials used in making vibrators are silicone, metal, PVC, rubber, glass, TPE, plastic, and a mixture. However, some stimulators are latex and phthalate-free, while others are even vegan-friendly. When choosing a sex toy, pick one with a material you feel suits your body best. For example, if it’s your first time, you might feel more comfortable using a small, realistic toy.

What is the texture of the material?

Vibrators come in all shapes and sizes and have different textures. For instance, some stimulators have realistic veins on the shaft that mimic a natural penis. Others have raised dots, nubs and ridges to make play even more exciting. However, everyone is different, and a smooth, slick shaft is what they want.

External stimulation

External vibrators usually target the clitoris, nipples, vulva and outer vagina lips (labia). These sex toys have different textures and speeds to deliver pinpoint stimulation. The size varies from small, discreet finger-size toys to vibrating mats you sit on. Some external stimulators are ideal for couples to share and offer exciting foreplay options.

Most Popular External Vibrators:

Below, we will list the most popular external vibrators women use, but not in any particular order.

1. Bullet vibrators are small, discreet, easy-to-use toys you hold like a pencil. It is perfect for pinpoint stimulation.
2. Clitoral vibrators can be any sex toy that provides pinpoint stimulation to the clitoral area, no matter the size.
3. Wand Vibrators are among the most powerful of all sex toys and have a flexible tip/head and handle.
4. Air Pulse Vibrators or clitoral suckers use air pulses to stimulate the clitoris but are not for internal play.

Internal stimulation

Internal vibrators target the vagina’s inner sensitive spots. They are usually penis-shaped with a slightly curved body and have a vibrating tip. Internal sex toys come in various materials, including metal and even glass. Metal and glass sex toys are ideal for temperature play, and you can heat or cool them in water.

Glass and metal sex toys clean easily in warm, soapy water and are perfect for couples sharing toys. Also, some of these internal stimulators are suited for anal play, and most are condom safe. Use lubricants with all internal vibrators for comfort.

Most Popular Internal Vibrators:

1. G-spot stimulators are sometimes curved with a vibrating tip to reach all your erogenous zones.
2. Realistic Dildo Vibrators have the shape of a natural penis, and some have veins and testicles.
3. Egg vibrators have a string or tail for easy removal and sometimes have a remote control, which is ideal for couples.

Duel Stimulation

Duel vibrators target the inside of the vagina (G-spot) and the clitoris simultaneously. These come in different sizes and materials. Some are waterproof, rechargeable, and have multi-speed vibrations. These are among the most popular sex toys and are ideal for solo and couple play. The material of these sex toys varies, but silicone toys are the top sellers.

However, they are also available in glass and other materials. Also, some have clitoral flickers (Rabbit ear type), while others have an air pulse stimulator.

Most Popular Dual Vibrators:

1. Dual stimulators are for clitoral and internal stimulation. The most popular is the Rabbit sex toy.
2. Rabbit Vibrators are the original dule sex toy and still are the most popular vibrating toy chosen for personal pleasure.

Is it Rechargeable?

Some vibrators are fully rechargeable and never need new batteries. Once charged, rechargeable vibrators are always ready for play. They are sometimes waterproof and more powerful than battery-operated vibrators. However, they are usually more expensive than battery-powered vibrators.

How to charge your vibrator? Charging your new rechargeable sex toy is usually a simple process. The toy will have a cable that plugs into a USB port at one end and into the vibrating sex toy at the other end.

However, some toys have a magnetic charging point and stick to the vibrator with the two metal charging points. Please keep the instructions and display box that the sex toy comes in for full charging instructions.

Is the Vibrator Waterproof?

Where can I use a waterproof vibrator? Waterproof sex toys will give exciting new pleasures in the bath, shower or if you are lucky enough to have a swimming pool. These beautiful toys work fine underwater and are perfect for destressing after a long, hard day.

They are also perfect for couples looking for new thrills and water play. Waterproof toys are usually rechargeable, but not always. So read the instructions, and as always, keep the display box.

Can I use the sex toy with my smartphone?

You can control some vibrators with an app on your smartphone. These App controlled sex toys are exciting in many ways. For instance, they work as a thrilling sex toy and also allow a partner to control the vibrations from anywhere.

In addition, you can watch and hear your partner using the sex toy on your phone. (Ensure the phone is secure and you trust your partner completely)

Is it temperature-controlled?

Some vibrating sex toys are excellent at holding heat or cold. You can achieve this by immersing it in hot or cold water. For example, some people might enjoy the cooling effect of a vibrator, while others prefer the warm feel of a sex toy. Cooling or heating a vibrator is a personal taste and won’t interfere with the vibrations or functions.

However, before heating or cooling your new toy, ensure it is suitable and will not damage the material. Read the instructions and keep the outer box for reference.

Can I use it for anal pleasure?

Some sex toys are perfect for anal and vaginal play.

These unisex toys are usually waterproof, and the material cleans easily. Metal, glass, some plastic and silicone are the primary material for anal stimulators.

But of course, you have to be careful what you insert into your anus. For instance, a small bullet might slip too far into your anus, and retrieval might be complex. Also, unlike the vagina, the anus is not self-lubricating, and you will need lots of lubricants applied as needed. So be careful what you use for anal play, and if unsure, read the instructions supplied with the sex toy.

As we said, this is The Comprehensive Guide to Vibrators, and we will include stimulators designed for couples to use together. These sex toys have a unique design that fit onto the penis and into or onto the vagina.

The purpose is to bring couples closer together when using sex toys and for both to enjoy the vibrations. Cock rings, or penis rings, sometimes have a clitoral stimulator attached and thrill and delight both couples. These cock rings work best when the penis is deep inside the vagina and the clitoral vibrator is touching the clitoris. Cock or penis rings also keep the penis rigid and allow the wearer to last a bit longer during lovemaking.

Tips on Choosing Your Perfect Vibrator

Here are some tips to help you find the right sex toy for you:

• Know Your Preferences:

Consider what type of stimulation you enjoy, internal or external. Will you want to use it in the shower or bath? Is it for vaginal use only, or do you want it for anal play also? Do you want a realistic-looking sex toy? These are a few things you should consider before choosing your perfect one.

• Size and Shape:

The size of your new sex toy is essential. For instance, a large toy might be uncomfortable for new users, so start small. Also, do you want a curved or straight toy? Do you want one with batteries or a rechargeable toy?

• Noise Level:

Some vibrating sex toys have whisper-quiet motors and are ideal for discreet fun, alone or with a partner. Quiet sex toys do not have to be the most expensive, as cheap stimulators are sometimes very quiet and powerful. The best way to choose a quieter toy is to visit the seller and ask to see and hear the toy you want. Or phone Cherry Pink and inquire about the stimulator you are thinking of purchasing.

Meanwhile, if you are worried about the noise your sex toy makes, turn up your TV or music when enjoying some solo pleasure.

• Budget:

Vibrating sex toys range in price from affordable to expensive, and some are hundreds of Euros. But you can enjoy the pleasures of a vibrating adult toy within your price range. Some powerful sex toys are cheaper than a bottle of your favourite wine and will give you much more fun.

In addition, the better the toy, the longer it should last. Of course, don’t overspend if you are unsure that the vibrator you are buying will suit your sexual needs.

• Read Reviews:

Reading reviews on sex toys from different shops and online companies is the best way to choose where to buy your toys. Nevertheless, some reviews might not be genuine and honest. However, independent companies like Feefo guarantee that the reviews are truthful and 100% honest. Feefo only allows real customers to give a company a review, and this review can not be altered or removed.

How to clean and care for your sex toy?

Care and cleaning your new sex toy is essential. Cherry Pink recommends cleaning before and after use. Also, store your adult toy in a clean container. Warm, soapy water will clean most sex toys sufficiently.

However, using a sex toy cleaner will kill all bacteria and germs to keep your new toys safe and ready for use. Take even more care when sharing toys with a partner. Also, anal toys will need more upkeep to keep them spotless.

5. Can I use a vibrator when pregnant?

Yes, if you feel satisfied using a vibrator, then it’s safe to do so. Just as making love to a partner is safe when pregnant, you might want to be gentler and not overdo things. Also, a vibrator might be stiffer or longer than a natural penis, and you might need to be a bit more careful.

6. What is the best vibrator? 

Every person is different, and what might be your favourite sex toy might not suit another person. Choosing a vibrator is personal, and the best one is the one that makes you feel delighted and leaves you smiling.

7. Can a vibrator get stuck?

The vagina is about 3-4 inches deep, which is not large enough for a vibrator to get stuck during regular use. However, a small bullet vibrator might slip into the vagina and turn sideways and make it harder to remove. But a small vibrator, like a bullet, might get lost or stuck in the anus.

8. Can I use a vibrator underwater? 

You can use a waterproof vibrator underwater, for instance, in the bath, shower, or swimming pool. Destressing in a hot bath with your vibrator is thrilling and relaxing, which can help you sleep better. Waterproof vibrators are perfect to use in other rooms, including the bedroom. In addition, these vibrators are sometimes the same price as non-waterproof sex toys.

9. Can I use a vibrator with my partner?

Yes, vibrators are perfect for couples to use during foreplay and to spice up bedroom fun. In addition, you can get a couple’s vibrator that will bring pleasure to both simultaneously. However, before you bring a vibrator to your sex games, it might be wise to talk to your partner beforehand.

10. Do I need lubricant with my vibrator?

You don’t need lubricants with your vibrator because the vagina is self-lubricating. However, lubricants will make the sexual experience much more enjoyable. Lube stops chaffing, pubic hair snagging, friction, and soreness. Lubricants are a must if vaginal dryness is an issue, whether using a sex toy or enjoying lovemaking with a lover.
