The Je Joue Mimi Soft Fuchsia Vibrator is undeniably a stylish and sophisticated toy, but when it comes to practicality and comfort, it leaves a bit—or rather a lot—to be desired. While the soft silicone and variety of vibration patterns are nice features, the awkward shape and limited maneuverability make it hard to fully enjoy. I found myself flipping it over more than once and trying more than a few angles, trying to get a good dose of the broad external stimulation it promises. All in all, it’s a toy that looks better on your nightstand than it feels in your hand during use. Switching through modes is another uphill battle, with small, dainty buttons on the circumference of the toy, which makes it almost impossible to switch through while you’re holding it in play. On the plus side, it’s rechargeable with a magnetic charger and has a fairly long playtime (I guess you’re going to need the extra juice considering finding the right play angle is near impossible on most days). On paper, it ticks a lot of boxes, but in practice, it’s not as user-friendly as it sounds.

The TENGA Flex Silky White exudes a beautiful and successful minimalistic design, all while preserving the pleasurable qualities of a sex toy, while still bringing in some innovative features into the design. As someone new to the world of sex toys, I found this to be an excellent introduction. It was easy to use, intuitive, and didn’t feel intimidating - in fact, discreet. The combination of functionality, innovative features, and user-friendly design has left a lasting impression. Without a doubt, I’ll be keeping this one in my collection.

As someone who genuinely loves Satisfyer products and their air pulse technology, it pains me to say that I can’t recommend the One Night Stand. While it’s designed as a budget-friendly entry point ($13 USD) to entice new users, its one-time-use approach is incredibly wasteful and irresponsible. One Night Stand is made of plastic and silicone, with batteries permanently sealed inside, and the disposal instructions are vague and hidden deep in the user guide. I’d much rather see Satisfyer offer a lower-cost reusable model that prioritizes accessibility and environmental responsibility.

I usually don't pay much attention to the small products by the cash register, but in this case, I'm so glad I did. The 3-Speed PowerBullet is a solid choice for beginners or anyone looking to enhance their toy collection without spending much. It's small, versatile, and surprisingly powerful for its size, with three speeds that deliver rumbly vibrations. While the design isn't perfect—its size can make it tricky to handle, and the vibrations linger in your fingers—it works well when paired with other toys like dildos or harnesses. The included LR44 batteries last a while, but I'd recommend the rechargeable version if you can afford the small price jump. Overall, it's a reliable, no-frills mini vibrator that gets the job done.

Does the job in a portable, travel-friendly format. But maybe wait for a sale, because it feels a lot cheaper than it is.

The Bwild Classic Bunny Vibrator is a soft, silicon, beginner-friendly rabbit that’s more about gentle vibes than mind-blowing power. It’s a solid pick for those dipping their toes into dual stimulation toys, but if you’re a power seeker, this bunny might feel a little tame. The design is undeniably fun and playful with little floppy "clit bunny" ears. The toy is actually powered by two AAA batteries and that really surprised me (in not the best way). These batteries are of course, easy to source but they run out quicker than you’d like if you’re planning to use it in extended play sessions. The internal arm is slim and curved for G-spot stimulation, but it doesn’t penetrate very deeply, mainly because of its size, making it better suited for gentle exploration rather than deep dives. The external bunny ears are flexible and soft, designed to focus on clitoral stimulation, but the 5 vibration modes are all on the buzzier side rather than the famed rumbly. So, think more tease, less knock out. Cleaning is relatively easy since it’s made of body-safe silicone, but it’s not waterproof. You’ll need to wipe it down with a damp cloth and mild soap or toy cleaner, being cautious around the battery compartment to avoid water damage. For its price point, this bunny is worth a shot if you prefer a softer touch, but it’s not going to give you that deep, powerful stimulation that some might crave. It’s more about light, approachable fun for those who enjoy a softer vibe.

I gave the BGood Classic Bullet a try, and I’ll be honest—it’s a solid pick if you’re looking for something simple but effective. Despite being called a bullet, this bad boy is pretty long, coming in at 7 inches, there's plenty space for a good comfortable grip during play. The PU-coated plastic material has a smooth feel that works beautifully with lube, gliding effortlessly for pinpoint or broader stimulation. So, whether you going for the classic clit stimulation or looking to trail the toy down your thigh, its going to work. The matte finish is a nice touch too—it keeps things from slipping through your fingers during play. Okay, let’s talk about the feel. The vibrations are steady and satisfying, there's a mix of steady and pulsing modes, offering some variety in stimulation. The vibrations range from a gentle buzz to more intense settings that touch into a rumble, so definitely take the time to explore here. Oh, and the waterproof design? Total win as always. Who doesn’t love a long, satisfying soak (in more than one way). I must admit, it's not loaded with fancy extras, but if you’re after a reliable, wallet-friendly option, this bullet is the go-to.

The Wonderlust Harmony is a flexible little number which has a smooth, soft-touch and a curved design that feels great against the skin. The idea of dual stimulation—internal and external— with this toy initially sounded great, but the clit hood on the external arm is a bit too gentle. It's almost unnoticeable vibrations across all 20 modes, which might be a little underwhelming if you're after intense clitoral stimulation. The internal arm on the other hand, does a great job of providing varied stimulation (my boat was pleasantly rocked). The power is nothing to write home about but the mix of buzzy and rumbly vibrations hit the spot. It's also waterproof and incredibly easy to clean, making it low-maintenance and travel-friendly. If you’re someone who enjoys steady pleasure, the Wonderlust is for you.

As far as penis sleeves go, this one takes the cake! (Literally!) It's a great pick for anyone looking to explore enhanced sensations without spending a fortune. While it lacks advanced features like vibrations, it offers a snug fit, jelly-like texture, and a supportive scrotum strap that not only keeps it in place but also delays orgasms, extending playtime—who wouldn’t want that? The ribbed or nubby patterns enhance friction during penetration, providing added stimulation for both the wearer and their partner, making it a win-win for shared pleasure. The fit also boosts the wearer’s size while offering gentle constriction to heighten sensations and help maintain a firmer erection. This sleeve proves that simplicity can be just as effective as high-tech options. Whether experimenting solo or with a partner, it’s a budget-friendly, fun way to spice things up. Just don’t forget the water-based lube to keep things smooth and comfortable—and ensure proper cleaning for repeated enjoyment!

If you’ve been curious about anal play but felt overwhelmed by the options, let me introduce you to the CalExotics X-10 Beads. These beads are designed to ease you into the experience with their gradual sizing and simple, effective design. The clever design allows you to start small (with some itty-bitty beads) and progress at your own pace (to the larger, more ball-like beads). The spacing between the beads offers plenty of room for movement without any slips, and their flexibility ensures they adapt naturally to your body. Talk about comfort! They're a low-risk, easy choice for anyone new to anal toys or looking for a gentler, more relaxed experience. One standout feature is the pull-out ring, which adds an extra layer of safety and control. Whether you’re using the beads solo or with a partner, the loop ensures a secure grip for smooth retrieval, so you can focus entirely on the sensations without any worries. It’s a small but crucial detail that makes the X-10 Beads especially beginner-friendly. More experienced users might find the smaller beads too subtle, but the larger ones deliver a satisfying “pop” sensation that makes the journey worthwhile. Their approachable size also makes them great for warm-ups or adding variety to partnered play. The PVC material, while body-safe and phthalate-free, is porous, so proper cleaning is essential. Wash with mild soap and warm water, or use a toy cleaner, to keep them hygienic. While I’d prefer silicone for its non-porous nature, the trade-off is understandable given the price. While they lack the intensity of larger or vibrating options, the X-10 Beads are a great pick for gentle exploration or mixing things up. Whether you’re dipping your toes into anal play or just looking for something low-key, these beads offer comfort and pleasure without breaking the bank.

The plusOne Air Pulsing Arouser is marketed as an air pulse clitoral stimulator. But in my experience, it doesn’t live up to that claim. Unlike similar products in this category, the plusOne Air Pulsing Arouser lacks actual pulsing functionality. Instead, it’s essentially a vibrator with a clitoris-friendly shape. While there are positives – such as ergonomic design and gentle sensations – it falls short in several areas. The waterproof claim is misleading, as submerging it in water noticeably impacted its performance. Cleaning is also challenging, as fluids can easily get trapped in the rim and charging port. Typically priced around $45 USD, it’s an affordable option for those who want to venture beyond a traditional bullet vibrator. However, it doesn’t deliver the distinct sensations I’d expect from a proper air pulse device. I’d recommend investing a little more money for a higher-quality product that genuinely offers what it claims.

This is a great beginner prostate toy, it's relatively small and very simple to use, and I would definitely recommend for anyone interested in getting into prostate stimulation!

The PlusOne Vibrating Bullet is marketed as a travel-ready, rechargeable vibrator—and I can confirm, it lives up to that. At under 3 inches long, this toy delivers a vibration quality that’s sure to raise more than just an eyebrow. While the vibrations are more on the buzzy side than the deep, rumbly end, they’re intense enough to create a mini tsunami in a glass of water (you get the idea). With 10 modes to choose from, the variety keeps things interesting, and you’ll definitely find a setting that works for you. Although it’s designed for clitoral stimulation, I found it works well on other sensitive spots too (just, you know, don’t insert). Like other PlusOne toys, this bullet is waterproof and made of body-safe silicone, which makes it easy to clean and maintain. I’ve tried a few of their budget-friendly toys, like the Travel Bullet, and while the silicone on those felt a bit plastic-y, this one’s a major upgrade. It’s soft, smooth, and feels way better on the skin. It has a one-button operation that’s easy to use, though it can be a little frustrating when you’re cycling through settings quickly.

So, is it worth a buy? If you’re a beginner, absolutely! The reasonably priced Snug Plug 3 is a fantastic choice to start with. Its smooth, rounded edges make insertion a breeze, and the premium silicone ensures it feels great for long-term wear. The 180g weighted balls inside the plug add a unique sense of fullness that’s satisfying without being overwhelming, even for extended use. The thin neck helps the plug stay securely in place, so there’s no need to worry about it slipping out unexpectedly. However, it doesn’t offer much in the way of girth training, so keep that in mind. My one issue was the grip handle—it felt a bit too wide and was the first spot where I noticed any discomfort. For more experienced users, the Snug Plug 3 might feel a bit small, as it did for me. But the good news is that the Snug Plug series comes in seven sizes. You can start small and work your way up to the Snug Plug 7, which features a hefty 600g of weighted balls and a diameter of 2.5 inches!

The Trojan Finger Tip Vibrator is a lightweight, one button toy that’s made from soft silicone, so it feels good against the skin—but don’t expect it to blow your britches off. The material itself is hygienic (easy to clean) and body-safe, and the ribbed design offers a nice tactile sensation when you touch it. However, getting that smooth, glide-worthy play experience does require a bit more effort, so you’ll definitely want to use a generous amount of lube. Now, let’s talk about the finger loop. This is where things get a little tricky. The loop can be a bit fidgety, and if your fingers aren’t the perfect fit, the toy can wobble during use. For smaller hands (like mine), it’s a little more awkward to keep it in place, which can be a bit frustrating when you’re trying to stay in the moment. A more adjustable loop or better grip would’ve made this design a lot more user-friendly. The single-speed vibration is another area where this toy falls short. It’s definitely more of a gentle hum than the intense buzz that’s advertised. If you’re looking for something to really pack a punch, this won’t do the trick. It’s more about teasing and warming up, so it’s a great option for light, easy play (plus side its quiet). Another thing to keep in mind is the battery situation. While it’s convenient to pop in button cells, they can add up over time, which is something to think about if you plan on using this regularly.

After giving the PlusOne Fluttering Arouser a solid try, I’d say it’s a fun tease. The standout feature for me was the realistic flicking tongue—it’s definitely unique—and thoughtful design comes in a close second. The varied vibration modes and 'licking patterns' are enjoyable, but some of the modes felt a bit repetitive, leaving me bored instead of locked in. That said, with some patience and effort (especially on the higher settings), it can get the job done—so if you want to put in the extra effort you can get to the finish line. The toy scores points for being quiet, easy to handle, and a breeze to clean and care for. I also love its versatility—it’s waterproof, the controls are straightforward, and the charging setup is refreshingly simple (no finger gymnastics required). However, as a standalone clitoral stimulator or vibrator, it doesn’t quite hit the mark for me. It’s more of a teasing, foreplay kind of toy, which worked well during partnered play and alongside other toys. But as a solo act? It falls a bit short in delivering that ultimate satisfaction.
