Best Cock Ring: Lelo Tor 3
“A vibrating cock ring is a great choice for partnered sex, since the small vibrator is strategically located to rub against the whole clitoral area while a couple is having penetrative sex,” says Sari Cooper, a certified sex therapist and founder and director of the Center for Love and Sex in New York City. “Penis rings are also helpful to support an erection because they maintain the blood flow in the genital area.” Plus, tons of people get aroused from feeling those vibrations. “If you like clit stimulation as a partner penetrates you, I 100% recommend this,” says a Glamour tester. I'll note that my partner thought it was too tight [the diameter is a little over an inch], so that's worth considering if you have a thicker partner.”
Type: Cock ring | Material: Body-safe silicone | Modes: 8 vibration settings | Battery: 2-hour rechargeable battery | Run time: Up to 2 hours | Waterproof: Yes | App-compatibility: Yes | How to charge: Via USB cable
- Why we love it: Enjoyable for both the penis and the clitoris; can create stronger erections
- What could be better: Might be too tight; short battery life; not designed for internal use
- How to use: During partnered sex, it can be worn on the penis for simultaneous clitoral stimulation—and can also be used as a vibrator to tease the clit and other erogenous zones like the nipples and anus.

We-Vibe Chorus
Cooper recommends the We-Vibe Sync for everyone and every body part. It has a head that massages the clitoris and a smaller end that acts as a G-spot vibrator—it can also stimulate the penis. Plus, it’s waterproof (i.e., ideal for shower sex), and has a remote for mess-free adjustments and an app that allows users to control the rhythm of the vibrator from anywhere. “I’ve been in a lot of long-distance relationships,” says Glamour sex toy writer Amanda Chatel who has tried nearly 600 toys. "The Sync 2 has been a favorite through them. “It gets the job done and does provide some intimacy in a strange, faraway way.”
Type: Dual stimulation vibrator | Material: Body-safe silicone | Modes: 10 vibration settings | Battery: 2-hour rechargeable battery | Run time: 90 minutes | Waterproof: Yes | App-compatibility: Yes | How to charge: Via USB cable
- Why we love it: App-controlled; waterproof; relatively quiet; wearable design
- What’s worth considering: Can be tough to keep in place

Satisfyer Pro 2
This beloved suction toy sends waves of pleasure through the clit, mimicking the sensation of oral sex. If you have trouble orgasming from internal stimulation alone, our experts unilaterally recommend this toy. (In our Satisfyer Pro 2 review, our tester called it “almost too good.”) We recommend you or your partner hold it over the clitoris during oral sex or penetration; combined with G-spot stimulation, it’ll feel heavenly. “I have tried a lot of sex toys, alone and with a partner, and they all help on some level, but the Satisfyer is in a league of its own,” one Glamour tester said. “I am not exaggerating when I say my body did things I did not know it could do with this toy. Like, I always thought squirting was just a thing I would see in porn, but it turns out my body can do that.”
Type: Suction vibrator | Material: Body-safe silicone, ABS plastic | Modes: 11 vibration settings | Battery: 2-hour rechargeable battery | Run time: 2.5 hours | Waterproof: Yes | App-compatibility: No | How to charge: Via USB cable
- Why we love it: Quiet design, pinpointed stimulation, tons of intensity levels
- What’s worth considering: Focuses only on the clit; short battery life
- How to use it: Hover the toy's mouth around the clit and cycle through its handle's buttons to increase its pressure.

Lelo Ida Wave
Leave it to Lelo to design the best waterproof vibrator for couples. Whether you use it in the same room or half a world apart, the Ida Wave is perfect for anyone with a vulva. According to Weiss’s Ida Wave review, the orgasms are plentiful and then some: “They kept on coming. Each orgasm was progressively more intense and felt like it was coming from a slightly different place. And after each one I’d think I was done for good, and then suddenly I’d feel the vibration in a slightly different place and get extremely turned on all over again… Within around a half hour, I’d reached my previous record of eight orgasms…but I still had another half hour until dinner…. As it turned out, there were seven more in me.” There really isn’t more to say on the matter, is there?
Type: Dual stimulation vibrator | Material: Body-safe silicone | Modes: 10 vibration settings | Battery: 2-hour rechargeable battery | Run time: 2 hours | Waterproof: Yes | App-compatibility: Yes | How to charge: Via DC port
- Why we love it: Dual stimulation; orgasm-inducing; has two motors that provide double the power
- What’s worth considering: A bit bulky
- How to use it: The Ida Wave's smaller arm fits inside the vagina and rotates to mimic a finger-like movement against the G-spot, while its smaller arm rubs against the clit. It can be used solo or with a partner (it's app-controllable, after all).

Dame Eva
Used alone or with a partner, this hands-free vibrator fits in the vulva and rests between the labia. It comes highly recommended by Gottfried: “It stimulates the clitoris and allows for penetration simultaneously, and even has a discreet charging case.” (Pro tip: Use crotchless panties to keep it in place with zero effort.) “It’s a very unobtrusive toy that tucks between your labia and sits on your clitoris,” explains sex educator and Glamour sex writer Suzannah Weiss, who often uses it during partnered sex. “It’s surprisingly powerful for its small size and also works great for solo masturbation. It does occasionally move around, so it may require you to use your hands a bit.”
Type: Wearable vibrator | Material: Body-safe silicone | Modes: 3 vibration settings | Battery: 4-hour rechargeable battery | Run time: 1 hour | Waterproof: Yes | App-compatibility: No | How to charge: Via USB cable
- Why we love it: Waterproof build, wearable design; great for couples
- What’s worth considering: Limited vibration options; can be tough to keep in place
- How to use it: Squeeze the toy's wings around it, then slide it under the labia so it stays put (and leaves your hands free to explore).

Magic Wand Rechargeable
If it’s your first time experimenting with a toy during partnered play, start here. “The classic Magic Wand is not only my own favorite vibrator, [but] it has also been the best-selling vibrator for over 50 years,” says Nan Wise, PhD, a certified sex therapist and author of the book Why Good Sex Matters. This bestseller actually gets the job done, adding pleasure with a bendable neck and an extra-soft head that’s great for sharing with a partner, whether it’s focused on sore muscles or any erogenous zone you please. (Add full-body massage to your running list of foreplay ideas.) Just a word of warning: This thing is loud.
Type: Wand vibrator | Material: Body-safe silicone | Modes: 8 vibration settings | Battery: 3-hour rechargeable battery | Run time: 3 hours | Waterproof: No | App-compatibility: No | How to charge: Via charger cable
- Why we love it: Extra powerful vibrations; flexible neck; rechargeable battery

- How to use it: Run it along your body for a relaxing massage and foreplay, or across the vagina and clit (through underwear or a blanket, if the sensation is too strong).

Lovense Lush 3
“The Lush 3 is a powerful wearable vibrator made from body-safe silicone that’s meant to be worn vaginally for rumbly internal vibrations,” says Dainis Graveris, certified sex educator and relationship expert at SexualAlpha. “The largest bulb slips inside the vagina, while the curved flexible tail wraps toward the clit for a more comfortable and secure fit. Despite the powerful vibrating motor, it’s discreet enough that you can wear it while you’re out in public and give your short-range or long-distance partner control over your pleasure.” Any partner can use an app to control the vibration, whether they’re in the same room or countless miles away.
Type: Dual stimulation vibrator | Material: Body-safe silicone | Modes: Customizable vibration settings | Battery: 85-minute rechargeable battery | Run time: 3 hours | Waterproof: Yes| App-compatibility: Yes | How to charge: Via USB
- Why we love it: App-controlled; wearable design; tons of vibration modes
- What’s worth considering: Might break down quickly
- How to use it: “If you’re feeling adventurous, wear it out and about and enjoy the quiet and unpredictable vibrations in public settings,” says Weiss.

Lelo Hugo
To kick your anal play up a notch, try this dual-ended vibrator. It’s a prostate massager, meaning it’ll hit what’s basically the male version of the G-spot (some can even climax from prostate stimulation alone). It’s also waterproof, remote-controlled, and rechargeable, and it has six vibration patterns and up to two hours of juice. “It’s a great addition to your bedroom arsenal,” a Glamour toy tester says. “It’s soft to the touch and just the right size and shape for people of any experience level. It might look big, but it’s designed to be the perfect size to tease the prostate.” We recommend using it to warm up for anal sex or using it on its own to make oral sex or mutual masturbation more pleasurable.
Type: Prostate massager | Material: Body-safe silicone, ABS plastic | Modes: 6 vibration settings | Battery: 2-hour rechargeable battery | Run time: 2 hours | Waterproof: Yes| App-compatibility: Yes | How to charge: Via DC port
- Why we love it: Has remote control; two motors; great battery; waterproof
- What’s worth considering: Expensive
- How to use it: Apply water-based lube, insert the toy's longer arm anally, and use the remote to increase the toy's power.

We-Vibe Moxie+
When it comes to couples sex toys, you can never go wrong with a panty vibrator. “They are an easy way to spice up date night at home or out on the town,” says Chatel. “Just slip the vibrator into your undies and hand the remote control or app over to your partner, and let the games begin. Moxie, in particular, is my favorite in this style because the fit is perfect, whereas other toys can be bulky and feel like you have a load in your pants.” With its 10 rumbly vibrations that are whisper-quiet and the super easy-to-use We-Vibe app, Moxie is a great addition to every sex toy collection.
Type: Panty vibrator | Material: Body-safe silicone, ABS plastic | Modes: 10 vibration settings | Battery: 2-hour rechargeable battery | Run time: 2 hours | Waterproof: Yes| App-compatibility: Yes | How to charge: Via USB cord
- Why we love it: Magnet attachment for extra security; 2-year warranty
- What’s worth considering: Could be stronger
- How to use it: Magnetically fasten the vibe inside your underwear, and hand the remote to your partner. You can control it too, of course, and by app too.

Fun Factory Manta
This vibrating male masturbator “makes a great addition to penetrative play, blow jobs, and hand jobs,” explains Cassandra Corrado, a sex educator who hosts sexuality-focused retreats. Its magic lies in those two textured wings, which act like a vibrating hand or throat; they expand to accommodate nearly any penis size, so you or your partner probably won’t be left out of the fun.
Type: Male masturbator | Material: Body-safe silicone, ABS plastic | Modes: 12 vibration settings | Battery: 2-hour rechargeable battery | Run time: 2 hours | Waterproof: Yes| App-compatibility: No | How to charge: Via USB cord
- Why we love it: Magnet attachment for extra security; 2-year warranty
- What’s worth considering: Could be stronger
- How to use it: Slide it around the shaft of the penis (or over or under the head) during masturbation or coupled sex—or push it to the base of the shaft during a blow job.

Dame Fin
What do you get when you put two or more vulvas in the same room? Magic. And the best way to celebrate such a coming together of greatness is by stimulating not just the vulva, but every inch of both partners. “Fin is more than just a perfect finger vibrator, so it’s great for lesbians and all their erogenous zones,” says Chatel. “Whether it’s the clit, nipples, earlobes, or that super sensitive part of the lower back, this vibrator won’t quit until everyone has climaxed multiple times.”
Type: Finger vibrator | Material: Body-safe silicone | Modes: 3 vibration settings | Battery: 1.5-hour rechargeable battery | Run time: 1.5 hours | Waterproof: Yes| App-compatibility: No | How to charge: Via USB cord and
- Why we love it: Extra powerful vibrations; versatile; affordable
- What’s worth considering: Charge might not last a full session.
- How to use it: Perch the vibrator above or below your fingers with its tether, then trail it along the body and vulva.

Lovehoney Advanced Strap-On Harness Kit
Here's an excellent deal for a strap-on kit—it includes everything you need to peg. Its harness is machine-washable, has a pocket for a bullet vibrator, and straps that adjust up to 65 inches along the hips. Its included dildo comes in a the not-too-intimidating insertable length of six inches. “I love this set not just because it’s comfortable and easy to use, but it’s not overwhelming when you put it on,” says Amanda Chatel, Glamour writer and sex toy reviewer. “As someone who prefers vibes with my dildos, I’ve also found that putting a vibrating cock ring at the base against the O-ring really adds an extra thrill for both partners.” The kit also provides three O-rings, so you can incorporate different toys that you already own—or plan to buy in the future.
Type: Strap-on set | Material: Body-safe silicone (dildo) | Waterproof: Yes
- Why we love it: Affordable; versatile; good for beginners to strap-ons
- What’s worth considering: May not fit all body types
- How to use it: Fasten the harness around one person's hips, slide in the dildo to its holder, and slowly push it into your partner's vagina, anus, or against their prostate.

Lovense Nora
Yes, rabbit vibrators are a bit bulky if you and your partner plan on having penetrative sex. But if you’re not going to be on top of each other—say, if you’re enjoying long-distance Zoom sex, or mutual masturbation turns you on—this ridged pick should be right up your alley. “Nora is for those who love rabbit vibes, intense clit stimulation, and G-spot stimulation,” Moore says. Like all Bluetooth-enabled Lovense devices, it can be controlled by anyone in the world via an app and pairs with the brand’s other toys. Moore explains that while the length is great for beginners, the rotating head might be too thick for first-timers or those who prefer less girth.
Type: Rabbit vibrator | Material: Body-safe silicone, ABS plastic | Modes: 7 vibration settings | Battery: 3-hour rechargeable battery | Run time: 4 hours | Waterproof: Yes| App-compatibility: Yes | How to charge: Via USB cord
- Why we love it: App connectivity; great battery life; syncs with other Lovense toys (like its male masturbator)
- What’s worth considering: Might be too bulky for partnered sex
- How to use it: The vibe's long arm rotates inside the vagina for some G-spot action while its smaller arm tickles the clit.

Njoy Pure Wand
This unique stainless steel dildo looks more like a small sculpture than a sex toy—and hey, we'll take it. “The sleek wand has two different-sized weighted balls, and it’s wonderfully curved,” says Megan Fleming, PhD, a psychologist and AASECT-certified sex therapist. That curve ensures its balls bend enough to hit the G-spot or prostate when thrusted and rocked, and its weight creates a feeling of fullness that can feel really good especially anally. Its metal body is easy to clean with soap and water, and retains heat and cold, if you're looking to give temperature play a try.
Type: Metal wand | Material: Medical-grade stainless steel | Waterproof: Yes
- Why we love it: Excellent for temperature play; doesn't require charging; discreet
- What’s worth considering: Pricey; doesn't vibrate; metal may feel too hard for some.
- How to use it: Add lube to the toy's ends, and then experiment with pressing it against the G-spot or P-spot, or inserting it anally. You can run it under warm water to heat it up, or stick it in the fridge for a few minutes to chill.

Fun Factory Limba Flex
The versatile Limba Flex dildo can be inserted in the anus, vagina, and mouth. Its extra-bendable shaft adjusts with the body's shape but is rigid enough for strong thrusting. “You can flex it in all sorts of different directions for your just-right fit,” says Marla Renee Stewart, MA, an AASECT-certified sex educator and founder of Velvet Lips, who calls it “multidimensional.” It's an excellent choice for strap-on anal play, and its curved shape can more easily hit the G-spot during vaginal penetration.
Type: Dildo | Material: Body-safe silicone
- Why we love it: Versatile; great for penetration; curved enough to hit the G-spot; it's not too lifelike.
- What’s worth considering: The dildo comes in three lengths (we'd recommend starting with small if you're new to butt stuff).
- How to use it: Hold the dildo at the shaft near its base if you want to insert it a little bit at a time. You can stick its suction base on a shower wall for hands-free play, or tuck it into a strap-on.

Lelo Gigi 2
Lelo Gigi 2 is a standout among sex experts, Glamour writers, and readers. The bestseller is designed for internal stimulation, but it feels great externally, too. “Gigi 2 has been one of my absolute favorite vibrators since I first tried it,” Chatel says, who reviewed the toy for us. "For me, it’s not just the design that reaches my G-spot with ease, but the shape of the head—it’s not oval or round but flat. It’s this flatness that makes both G-spot and clitoral stimulation feel more full-body in its vibrations, as opposed to just directly and only genital.” It's easy to navigate the wide tip internally, and its broad size dampens and deepens the vibrations that spread through the vulva and up to the clit.
Type: G-spot vibrator | Material: Body-safe silicone, ABS plastic | Modes: 8 vibration settings | Battery: 2-hour rechargeable battery | Run time: Up to 4 hours | Waterproof: Yes | App-compatibility: No | How to charge: Via USB cord
- Why we love it: Beginner-friendly; can be used internally; long battery life; girthy
- What’s worth considering: Pricey
- How to use it: Hold the toy's handle and circle its tip around the vulva and on the clit before tilting its tip inside the vagina to thrust against the G-spot. You can do this yourself or for a partner (and in the tub too).

We-Vibe Tango X
This bullet vibrator is about the size of a tube of lipstick—making it extremely discreet and travel-friendly. Jessica O’Reilly, PhD, sex therapist and host of the Sex With Dr. Jess podcast, tells Glamour that “its vibrations are powerful and deep” and the We-Vibe Tango X’s tapered tip “presses perfectly against the head of the clitoris.”
Type: Bullet vibrator | Material: Body-safe silicone, ABS plastic | Modes: 8 vibration settings | Battery: 1.5-hour rechargeable battery | Run time: 1.5 hours | Waterproof: Yes | App-compatibility: No | How to charge: Via USB cord
- Why we love it: Discreet; powerful; waterproof; precise clit stimulation
- What’s worth considering: It's not for internal use
- How to use it: Grasp the toy like a wand and trail its pinpointed tip across the neck, nipples, vulva, and the head of the penis during foreplay and sex.

Unbound Bender
This super-bendy vibrator is a great complement to partnered play because it can be used both internally and externally on everybody and every body. “As much as I like the Bender when I’m solo, I love it even more with my partner,” says Chatel. “It’s not just really powerful, but super flexible, making getting creative during sex extra fun because there’s no body part that this toy can’t stimulate and no place it can’t be used.” Bender reaches full charge in only an hour and is 100% waterproof and shockingly quiet.
Type: G-spot vibrator | Material: Body-safe silicone | Modes: 10 vibration settings | Battery: 1-hour rechargeable battery | Run time: 2 hours | Waterproof: Yes | App-compatibility: No | How to charge: Via USB cord
- Why we love it: Super flexible; inclusive of all bodies
- What’s worth considering: Pricey; poor battery life
- How to use it: Curve the toy's body so that it more easily accesses the clit or angles inside the vagina for internal stimulation.

B-Vibe Snug Plug 3
Certified sexuality educator Amber Mallery, MPH, calls herself “a big advocate of butt plugs” for couples, no matter if you have a prostate or a vulva. (The internal pressure “makes the vagina feel more cozy,” she says, and it’s especially fun if vibrations are involved.) This pick comes highly recommended by Corrado. “They come in a variety of sizes and are beginner-friendly for the booty-curious folks who want to start using toys,” she says, with the smallest size starting at about the size of an index finger. When you start working your way up, you’ll have an additional six sizes to choose from.
Type: Butt plug | Material: Body-safe silicone
- Why we love it: Multiple sizes to choose from; weighted for extra sensation and fullness
- What’s worth considering: Pricey; does not vibrate
- How to use it: Apply lube to the rim of the anus (so that a finger or two comfortably fits inside) before gently sliding in the butt plug.

Lelo Mona 2
This ergonomic pick from Lelo “doesn’t take up much room during sex,” says Aliyah Moore, PhD, a certified sex therapist with SexualAlpha, who appreciates the gadget’s “comfortable curve and handle” that make it easy to use on the clitoris and vulva. “I highly recommend it for clit play during partnered sex. There’s also a wide range of power settings, from soft to very strong.”
Type: G-spot vibrator | Material: Body-safe silicone, ABS plastic | Modes: 6 vibration settings | Battery: 2-hour rechargeable battery | Run time: 2 hours | Waterproof: Yes| App-compatibility: No | How to charge: Via USB cord
- Why we love it: Waterproof design; unobtrusive shape; for internal or external use
- What’s worth considering: Buttons are easy to accidentally push during sex.
- How to use it: Use it as an external vibe during oral sex or penetration, or slip in the curved tip for targeted G-spot stimulation.

Lovehoney Double Duty Vibrating Strap-On Dildo
Double-sided dildos like this one give you double the penetration and is an ideal choice for both vaginal and anal sex. “The person wearing the strap-on typically has a vulva,” says Indigo Stray Conger, LMFT, an AASECT-certified sex therapist. “The larger side is for penetration into their partner, while the other end is inserted into the thruster’s vaginal canal.” Additionally, the remote-controllable toy vibrates on both ends and comes with an adjustable harness, so it can be worn during pegging.
Type: Double-ended dildo | Material: Body-safe silicone | Modes: 7 vibration settings | Battery: 2 x AAA batteries | Run time: N/A | Waterproof: No | App-compatibility: No | How to charge: N/A
- Why we love it: Can provide penetration to two people; includes harness; remote-controllable
- What’s worth considering: Battery-operated only
- How to use it: Insert the smaller side of the toy inside inside one partner's vagina. Then gently guide the larger side into the other person's anus. You can incorporate a harness as well, if you want to peg.

Liberator Wedge
A sex pillow is one of the most useful (and oft-overlooked) accessories in the bedroom. It's ergonomically shaped like a wedge to open you and your partner up to a world of positions and angles. “[These] are extremely good for those with mobility issues or wheelchair-bound,” Taylor Sparks, erotic educator and founder of Organic Loven, tells Glamour. “I have clients who do not have the use of the lower half of their bodies, preventing them from ‘pushing back’ against their lovers during sex or the ability to hold their hips up to receive. The use of the Liberator Sex Pillows gives them the angles and comfort to be able to enjoy deep penetrative sex or oral sex in a manner that is comfortable for them.” It's moisture-resistant and has a machine-washable cover—two major wins for anyone who squirts.
Type: Sex pillow | Material: Soft microfiber
- Why we love it: Makes many sex positions more comfortable and accessible; machine-washable cover
- What’s worth considering: Pricey
- How to use it: Slide it under the bottom partner's hips during poses like missionary and cowgirl, and even during oral sex.

How to introduce sex toys into partner play
Some people might feel “intimidated or shameful” about using toys in the bedroom because they think it means they aren’t good enough at sex, Dr. Goldstein says, so broach the subject when you’re both in a good mood. (Who knows? Your partner may have the same desires you do, even if they seem unreceptive.)
Also give yourselves the space to be silly while experimenting; taking things too seriously—including sex—can be limiting in how you experience and express pleasure. “Getting playful and maybe a little bit goofy with your partner can bring you even closer together, building intimacy and trust as you’re both showing new sides of yourselves and learning more about each other,” says Brown.

What are the best beginner sex toys for couples?
As Good Vibrations staff sexologist Carol Queen, PhD, tells Glamour, any toy can be a couples toy. But if you want something tailored to partnered sex, she says, you should specifically look for wearable toys (including penis rings or cock rings, dual-ended vibrators, and strap-on dildos) that don’t require adjusting once you’re in the moment. Handheld vibrators also work well, especially ones with ergonomic handles for easy maneuvering: Wand vibrators allow sensual, full-body massage during foreplay, then targeted vibration on the clit, vulva, or nipples during sex. Clit suckers, meanwhile, mimic the feeling of oral, which can be used during mutual masturbation or penetrative sex, and there are also panty vibrators with remote controls to experiment with public play.
- 25/27
What materials should you look for?
Body-safe silicone is the gold standard material for sex toys (stick to water-based lube here), and ABS plastic, stainless steel, and high-quality glass are also common and safe, says Amber Mallery, MPH, a certified sexuality educator and community manager at Bijoux Indiscrets—but avoid rubber.
