| How to find the Perfect-Fitting Vibrator |
| With the thousands of vibrators on the market, it can
be quite a challenge to find which ones best fit your needs. This
vibrator guide will look at
Essential Vibrator Guidelines you should consider before buying
a vibrator. After boning up on those pointers, you can then explore some
of the dozen different Vibrator
Models to see what each has to offer. Then, this guide covers
some of the Special Vibrator Features
you should look for in your new vibrator. By carefully planning your
decision, you’ll be able to better narrow your selection and find the
vibrator that best suits your needs. |
| Deciding on a Material for your Vibrator |
| What material you choose is also important. Vibrators
are made from a several Different
Materials, which can affect how you use your vibrator, its price
and even how you maintain it. Before buying a vibrator, you should
research the benefits and drawbacks of the different materials so you
can find the vibrator best suited to your needs. There are five main
types of material used to make vibrators: Plastic, Latex, Jelly,
Cyberskin, and Silicone. |

Essential Vibrator Guidelines |
|
The most important factor in buying a
vibrator is size - a fact many people tend to gloss over.
You can buy an expensive vibrator with all kinds of special
features, but you’ll end up disappointed if the vibrator of
your dreams turns out too small or too large to use. Most
vibrators are sized 5 to 7 inches long and 1 inch wide -
similar to the average penis. Vibrators intended exclusively
for anal use tend to be a little shorter and thinner while
other vibrators can measure a whopping 14 inches long and
2.5 inches wide.
Many vibrator novices make the mistake of
buying a vibrator too large for their needs - making it a
good idea to start out with an average-sized vibrator. If
you feel the need for deeper penetration, look for a longer
model with average width so you do not get stuck with
something larger than you can comfortably handle. As a good
yardstick, you could estimate the size of a lover’s penis
and buy a similarly sized vibrator.
There are two standard ways to control the
power of your vibrator. The more basic models come with a
rotating dial in their base so you can vary the vibrator’s
speed from low to high. Other vibrator models have pre-set
pulsations. By pressing a button on the vibrator’s base or
on a separate remote, you can set the speed from low to high
or even select a pre-set pattern that rapidly turns the vibe
on and off.

Different Vibrator Models |
|
Once you’ve determined a comfortable size for
your vibrator, it’s time to think about which model of
vibrator suits your needs. Depending on how you plan to use
your vibrator, there’s likely a special model of vibrators
specifically engineered to suit your needs, whether you’re
looking for a simple back massage, clitoral stimulation from
a Rabbit Vibrator or something to hit your G-Spot. While
there are some vibrators designed to stimulate multiple
erogenous zones, many women prefer to have multiple
vibrators with each vibrator specializing in one area.

As their name implies, anal vibrators are
designed specifically for anal penetration. Anal vibrators
are shorter and thinner than regular vibrators and feature a
flared or extended base for easy removal. Anal vibrators
generally measure 4 to 6 inches long with a width that can
vary from 0.75 to 1.25 inches.
When using an anal vibrator, it’s important
to apply lots of lube to the anus and the vibrator itself
for a smooth penetration. With sufficient lube, the anal
vibrator should slide in and out with only slight
resistance. DO NOT FORCE IT IN. If the resistance is too
much, you can try inserting a finger to slightly loosen the
sphincter ring. If that doesn’t work, stop trying to use the
anal vibrator. Continue the finger exercises regularly over
a two-week period to loosen up the sphincter before trying
out the anal vibrator again.
If this is your first anal vibrator, then
look for one of the smaller-sized anal vibrators or for one
advertised as a beginner’s model. Until you have adjusted to
the experience and know you can handle it, trying to use a
larger anal vibrator is just asking for trouble.

Many adults love these vibrators because of
their all-purpose nature. These vibrators are great on their
own but also are commonly used in a wide variety of adult
toys to enhance stimulation.
Bullet vibrators are generally 2 to 3 inches
long and very thin. They usually run on watch batteries and
have a speed control built into their base. Egg vibrators
are roughly the size of a large egg and are usually wired to
a remote control. Most egg vibrators take standard AAA or AA
batteries which are inserted into the remote. Many women use
egg vibrators for vaginal insertion and use bullet vibrators
for clitoral stimulation.
On a precautionary note, the small size of
bullet vibrators and their lack of a cord or wire makes it
unwise to insert a bullet vibrator into your vagina or anus
as it might be difficult to retrieve it afterwards. One
should also never use a regular egg vibrator to stimulate
your anus as there is a chance that the cord will break and
you will be unable to retrieve the vibe. However, there are
special egg vibrators that come with a strong cord or wire
that are intended for anal use - just pay attention to the
product description.
Bullet and egg vibrators are both common
additions to several different models of sex toys because of
their ability to provide extra stimulation and enhance the
user’s experience. Bullet vibrators are often used in
different models of cock rings, while egg vibrators can be
found in masturbation sleeves and love dolls.

Butterfly vibrators are designed solely for
clitoral stimulation. These special vibrators come with
straps and are worn in place like a pair of panties, which
gives them a butterfly like shape. Many of these vibrators
have an overall colorful and stylish appearance to make them
more attractive.
Butterfly vibrators are usually covered with
dozens of pleasure nubs, which are simply small and flexible
points. When you turn on the vibrator, these pleasure nubs
vibrate very rapidly creating a mind-blowing feeling of
dozens of feathers tickling your clit at once.
Many women love butterfly vibrators for their
hands-free stimulation. This leaves you free to use another
vibrator for vaginal or anal penetration at the same time.
Or you could put on your butterfly vibe before having sex
with your partner for constant clitoral stimulation.

These are arguably the best vibrators on the
market because they provide such intense clitoral
stimulation they’re effective on even women who otherwise
have difficulty having an orgasm.
There are two major kinds of clitoral
vibrators - rabbits or dolphins and beavers. The names come
from how these vibrators stimulate the clitoris. Rabbit
vibes feature two small prongs - the rabbit’s ears - that
directly tickle the clit. Beaver or dolphin vibrators rely
on one larger nub, either the beaver’s tail or the dolphin’s
nose, for clitoral stimulation. Many women prefer the rabbit
vibrator claiming that it has a lighter, more teasing and
feather-like feel to it than the beaver or dolphin. The
single, larger nub of the beaver and dolphin vibrators
allows for more intense and heavy-handed stimulation.
Clitoral vibrators tend to be the luxury
model on the adult toy market. They rank among the more
expensive vibrators, but almost all clitoral vibrators
include several special features. Unlike butterfly
vibrators, the rabbit or beaver probe is attached to a long
shaft for dual vaginal penetration and clitoral stimulation.
Many models also feature two separate speed controls, one
for the vibrating shaft and another for the clitoral
stimulator. Like G-Spot vibrators, these shafts are
liberally covered in raised veins and pleasure nubs for
added satisfaction. Some of the higher-end models have
rotating tips, a piston action that mimics actual thrusting,
or the ability to connect to your computer for long-distance
relationships.

These are your basic nuts-and-bolts vibrator.
Cylindrical vibrators lack extra features that come with
higher-end vibrators, but they make up for that with by
being highly dependable and relatively inexpensive.
Cylindrical vibrators tend to less than 1 inch wide, making
them relatively thin. Most of these vibrators feature a
rounded, smooth shaft. One end tapers down to a smooth
point, while the other end houses the controls and battery
compartment.
With their rounded tip and smooth surface,
cylindrical vibrators are useful for either clitoral
stimulation or vaginal penetration. It is not recommended to
use cylindrical vibrators for anal penetration as they lack
the flared base that ensures easy retrieval. Be sure to use
a toy-safe lubricant with cylindrical vibrators for an
easier and more satisfying experience.

You can easily tell if a vibrator is designed
to hit your G-Spot by looking at their shape. G-Spot
vibrators feature a distinctive curve right at the tip so
the head of the vibrator can more easily hit your G-Spot
every time. The tip of the G-Spot vibe is also fairly large,
more like the head of an actual penis than the rounded point
on a cylindrical vibrator. On the whole, G-Spot vibrators
tend to be wider than many cylindrical vibrators - measuring
around 1 to 1.5 inches wide and 5 to 7 inches long.
G-spot vibrators also tend to feature
additional features to enhance stimulation. These can be
something as simple as raised ridges along the length of the
shaft to make penetration more pleasurable or a shaft with a
series of bulbous projections so you can feel it gliding in
and out.
G-Spot vibrators tend to be one of the most
popular models on the market, coming in narrowly behind
clitoral and rabbit vibrators. Many women use G-Spot
vibrators while stimulating their clitoris for truly
powerful orgasms.

Rabbit vibrators are the most popular
vibrator model on the market, thanks to publicity from the
popular HBO series Sex in the City, the Oxygen Network’s
Talk Sex with Sue Johanson show, and simple word of mouth.
Even with all that hype, many women find that their rabbit
vibrators are even better than promised.
Rabbit vibrators are named after the
two-pronged "bunny ears" that vibrate at high speeds to
stimulate the clitoris. Many women find that the rabbit ears
have a light teasing feel - almost like a high-speed feather
or tongue. Rabbit vibrators are attached to a long shaft for
dual vaginal penetration and clitoral stimulation. Many
models also feature two separate speed controls - one for
the vibrating shaft and another for the clitoral stimulator.
Like G-Spot vibrators, these shafts are liberally covered in
raised veins and pleasure nubs for added satisfaction. Some
of the higher-end models have rotating tips, a piston action
that mimics actual thrusting, or the ability to connect to
your computer for long-distance relationships.

Vibrator Kits come with one basic cylindrical
vibrator and a variety of sleeves made from different
materials. These sleeves are simply slipped over the
vibrator so you can customize it for several different
purposes - such as G-Spot or clitoral stimulation. Many of
these sleeves are completely covered with flexible pleasure
nubs making these vibrators ideal for clitoral stimulation
as well as an arousing massage.

Although vibrators are often seen as a
product for women, men can enjoy them every bit as much as
women. A vibrating massager can be highly relaxing on tense
muscles. And you might be pleasantly surprise at a man’s
reaction to using a clitoral vibrator on his balls. But
there are some vibrators that cater exclusively for men.

These are usually small rings made of a
stretchy material like cyberskin or silicone with a bullet
or egg vibrator. The ring fits snugly over the base of the
penis - restricting blood flow so a man can stay harder for
a longer amount of time. Meanwhile, the vibrator attached to
the cock ring can be positioned for several different uses.
The man can point it downward to stimulate his balls or he
could place it to hit a woman’s clit during sex. Some cock
ring vibrators have dual stimulators - one for the clit and
one for a woman’s ass. The potential afforded by the
positioning of the vibe combined with the
endurance-enhancement of the cock ring makes these items
highly popular.

These are a cross between anal and G-Spot
vibrators. Prostate vibrators often have a bigger tip for
better stimulation with a long, curved shaft to easily reach
the prostate. While some men simply aren’t comfortable with
the concept of prostate stimulation, prostate stimulation
coupled with just stroking the penis causes an extremely
powerful and more satisfying orgasm.
When using a prostate vibrator, you should
follow the same precautions as with using an anal vibrator.
Be sure to use plenty of lube and be careful during
insertion. With sufficient lube, the anal vibrator should
slide in and out with only slight resistance. DO NOT FORCE
IT IN. If the resistance is too much, you can try inserting
a finger to slightly loosen the sphincter ring.
Look for prostate vibrators.

| Special
Features to Improve your Vibrator Experience |
| |
| Now that you know what you want your ideal
vibrator to be made out of, it’s time to actually start
shopping. While browsing through our extensive collection of
vibrators, you’ll find several that advertise special features -
like Pleasure Nubs, a Realistic Look or
Waterproof Controls. This section explains just what these
little extras are and what they do. |
|
Pleasure Nubs, Bumps or Ridges
Many higher-end vibrators aim to increase
stimulation as much as possible by creating ridges, bumps
and pleasure nubs along the vibrator. Ridges are lines that
run along the vibrator’s shaft and stick out just a little
bit to provide additional stimulation during penetration. On
many vibrators, particularly realistic vibrators, these
ridges are made to look like veins.
Bumps tend to small, raised circles along the
vibrator’s shaft that function similar to ridges.
Larger-sized bumps are also found around the vibrator’s base
for clitoral stimulation. Bumps have little to no
flexibility.
Pleasure nubs are small and thin but highly
flexible hair-like pieces that stick out along the shaft and
near the base for clitoral and vaginal stimulation.
Realistic Vibrators
Rather than a nondescript cylinder or an
oddly shaped one like most G-Spot vibrators, realistic
vibrators faithfully replicate a penis - from the head down
to the balls. These are frequently molded from real-life
models, including several top adult stars. Realistic
vibrators are often made from cyberskin - a special material
that simulates the feel and consistency of the real thing.
They come in a wide variety of sizes from average to the
largest ones that top out around 12 inches long and 2 inches
in girth. Some of the better models also include raised
veins to provide increased stimulation during penetration.
See what realistic vibrators have to offer.
Waterproof Vibrators
Whether you’re alone or with a partner,
waterproof vibrators are perfect for turning bath time into
playtime. Many women love being able to combine the
stimulation of their vibrator with the sensuous feel of
water or a powerful shower massage for a knee-shaking
orgasm. A special plastic ring seals the battery compartment
off from the water allowing you to use these models in the
shower or the pool with ease.
Take a dip in the pool with these waterproof vibrators.

| Deciding
on a Material for your Vibrator |
Plastic Vibrators
Plastic is a popular choice for vibrators, largely because of
its extremely low price. Vibrators made from plastic tend to be
very basic, no-frills models. Plastic vibrators are very smooth
and sleek. Plastic vibrators tend to be excellent for
penetration - providing a firm and fulfilling experience. But
their lack of flexibility makes them less effective when it
comes to clitoral stimulation.
Latex Vibrators
This material is one step up from plastic. While still
relatively cheap, latex gives the vibrator user many more
options. Latex vibrators are firm enough for deep penetration,
but these vibrators have more give and a little more flexibility
than their plastic counterparts. Because latex vibrators have
much more friction than plastic ones, you should always use a
lube with them.
Jelly Vibrators
Jelly vibrators provide an excellent balance between usability
and cost, making this the material of choice for many mid-range
and luxury vibrators. Jelly is very easy to mold, color and
shape - properties which manufacturers take advantage of
whenever possible. This results in jelly vibrators numbering
among the most colorful and exotic-looking models of vibrators
as well as giving designers a chance to include many special
features. Jelly is a very pliable material that has on overall
smooth, soft and even supple feel to it. Despite their name,
jelly vibrators have a consistency similar to a hard-boiled egg
and are very effective at penetration. Browse our large
collection of jelly vibrators.
Cyberskin Vibrators
Cyberskin vibrators are prized for their highly realistic feel
and appearance. This special material comes very close to
replicating the feel and appearance of human skin, especially
after you hold these vibrators close to your body to warm them
up. Because of its realistic look and feel, cyberskin is
commonly used in high-end adult toys and realistic vibrators. It
combines the soft give of jelly vibrators with the firmness of
latex vibrators. Cyberskin vibrators do require some specialized
cleaning.
Silicone Vibrators
Silicone is a high quality material that is rapidly
revolutionizing the vibrator industry. Silicone is prized for
its durability as well as its superior hygienic properties.
Silicone can put up with a great deal of stress and hard-use
while retaining its original shape and qualities. Silicone
vibrators tend to be more expensive because these models are
meant to last for years of intense usage. For the most part,
silicone vibrators are soft and firm and feel very comfortable
whether used for penetration or clitoral stimulation. Silicone
vibrators are also easy to clean. |
