The Best Luxury C-Shaped Vibrator: We-Vibe Chorus
We-Vibe has created many iterations of its signature C-shaped couples’ vibe over the years, and this one is about as close to perfect as it’s gotten yet. Like its predecessors, this one has two “arms”. During penetrative heterosexual sex, one arm can be worn inside the vagina to hit the G-spot, while the other sits outside of the clit. It’s meant to stimulate both partners at once, but I’ve also found that it works well solo. The Chorus’s most unique feature, though, is its squeeze-control remote: the tighter you grip the remote, the stronger the vibration gets, which is much more intuitive in the heat of the moment than struggling to press buttons in the dark.
Pros: Strong, rumbly vibrations; three vibration speeds and seven patterns; intuitive squeeze-control remote; Bluetooth-controllable; can be used long-distance; waterproof
Cons: Can’t be used with silicone-based lubes; ridged surface can be hard to clean
The Best Luxury Suction Vibrator: Womanizer Duo 2
If you want to overload your clit and G-spot with pleasure, this toy is one of the best and fanciest ways to do it. The outer arm of the toy stimulates the clitoris head with air, creating a suction-like sensation that’s incredibly pleasurable. On the other hand, ahem, the inner arm has an upward curve to reach the G-spot and give it rumbly vibrations. Sure, it’s a little bulky, but in some ways, this is like having two toys in one.
Pros: Offers both clitoral stimulation and G-spot vibration at once; each function can be controlled separately; strong, rumbly vibrations; 14 intensity levels and 10 vibration patterns; comes with two differently sized stimulator heads to fit a range of clitoris sizes; waterproof
Cons: Can be inconveniently large/bulky; can’t be used with silicone-based lubes
The Best Luxury Male Masturbator: Hot Octopuss Pulse Solo Lux
Vibration is a highly underrated way of stimulating penises, and with this wrappable sleeve, made to curve around the penis, sending rumbly vibrations all throughout your shaft and especially focusing on the super-sensitive frenulum. My partner likes this one and especially likes that it can be used at all stages of the arousal cycle, from flaccid to fully erect.
Pros: Powerful, rumbly vibrations; six vibration settings; can be used with or without an erection; includes a remote with a watch strap for added convenience; waterproof
Cons: Can’t be used with silicone-based lubes; short battery life; may not work for very short or very thick penises; not as easily incorporated into partnered sex as some other penis vibes
The Best Luxury Butt Plug: Lelo Hugo
This elegant vibrator has two rumbly motors to stimulate your prostate and perineum at the same time, potentially amping up your orgasm a great deal. You can control it using the included remote or hand the remote to your partner so they can take over. Sounds like it’s worth its high price tag!
Pros: Powerful, rumbly vibrations; six vibration settings; two motors for stimulating the prostate and perineum; good curve for hitting the prostate; can be controlled via remote or via the buttons on the toy; waterproof
Cons: May be too large for some users; remote uses disposable batteries; can’t be used with silicone-based lubes
The Best Luxury Clitoris Stimulator: Lelo Sona 2 Cruise
“This is an amazing luxury clitoris-sucking toy that really does get the job done every single time,” says Gigi Engle, a sex and relationships psychotherapist and resident intimacy expert at 3Fun. The air pulse technology used in this toy feels decidedly different from standard vibration—it’s like a mix of rhythmic tapping and mild suction. The 12 speeds offer a lot of variety, from ultra-gentle stimulation to breathtaking intensity.
