Sex Toys & Adult Products
The Jasmine has a small, flexible, vibrating “tongue” set in a loop that is supposed to encircle the clitoris. Though this toy provides powerful, focused stimulation penis pumps, we found such pinpoint stimulation to be more intense and easier to position with toys like the Lelo Dot and the Dame Aer. The NS Novelties Inya Sonnet provides dual stimulation, offering both clitoral suction and internal vibration. The Sonnet is a fine toy, but our tester preferred the 5 Star Rabbit overall. The 5 Star Rabbit is also covered by a longer warranty (five years versus the Sonnet’s one). Waterproof toys made from nonporous materials such as silicone and stainless steel can tolerate washing with soap and warm water.
Carol Queen, PhD, is an author, educator, and the staff sexologist for sex-toy retailer Good Vibes. Also noteworthy is the fact that the toy flips open, which makes lubing the toy up and washing it incredibly easy and hassle-free. Strokers come in a variety of shapes and sizes, and include options like ‘blow job stimulators’, ‘Fleshlights’, and ‘pocket pussies’.
If your sexy time is getting a little too stale for your taste, you can always make things more fun with pleasure toys. Popular Science started writing about technology more than 150 years ago. There was no such thing as “gadget writing” when we published our first issue in 1872, but if there was , our mission to demystify the world of innovation for everyday readers means we would have been all over it. We know we don’t know everything, but we’re excited to live through the analysis paralysis that internet shopping can spur so readers don’t have to.Find out more about our product evaluation process.
This is one of our favorite silicone sex toys, as it packs all kinds of punches during partnered sex. Made from body-safe silicone and totally waterproof, this little rabbit can take on any terrain. First, a good online resource for sex toys will not skimp on product details. Product descriptions should be easily accessible and include important features, including each toy’s materials, dimensions, run time, how the device is charged, and how to use it properly.
The cozy, self-wearing design was another highlight of the review. Our testers loved how the tapered head and bulbous body made it easy to insert the vibrator. Its soft silicone material had an excellent finish that felt great against the vagina walls. Although some reviewers have found the neck uncomfortable, we found it more durable. The solid neck made retrieving the toy more straightforward than its predecessor (read our review of it here).
