Lovers Vibrator Buyer Guide
Beginners
Thinking about buying your first vibrator? Lovers is here to help! Buying your first sex toy shouldn’t be overwhelming, anxiety-inducing, or embarrassing; we’re here to make it easy and fun. Before you shop, consider the following features of the toy or toys of your dreams to help narrow your search and find the perfect vibrator for you.
Ease-of-Use
Vibrator’s with fewer buttons are naturally easier to operate and will allow you to spend less time with the how-to guide and get right to exploring and enjoying the power of your new vibrator.Bullet vibratorsare great for those new to sex toys because they are simple to use, often designed with one-button controls, and have a basic shape that is wonderful for a variety of stimulation whether you’re using one for masturbation or with a partner.
Materials
Choosing a vibrator made with body-safe materials like silicone, stainless steel, or glass ensures they will last and keeps your health and safety at the forefront as these materials are easier to clean and sanitize and are less likely to harbor bacteria after use.
Size
Vibrators come in a vast variety of sizes, so it’s good to think about what will work best for you starting out. This applies to what fits in and on your individual body, as well as how easy the vibrator is to hold and maneuver. Wand vibrators come in a variety of sizes and are great for beginners because they have wide, rounded heads great for broad stimulation and massage. They can be very easy to control thanks to their ergonomic handles.
Discretion
Does a vibrator with a more realistic-look excite you? Or would you like a toy that is more ambiguous and less likely to be identified if you left it out on your nightstand?
Have you thought about a Rabbit Vibrator? Most of the time when we’re referencing a Vibrator that’s ideal for someone new to using sex toys, the styles are very straightforward and intended for singular erogenous zone targeting. Some vibrators can be used externally to stimulate the clitoris and external vulva. Some vibrators can also be used for penetration and to stimulate the G-Spot. And then there’s Rabbit Vibrators that provide both internal and external stimulation and blended orgasms (orgasms that come from pleasuring multiple erogenous zones at the same time). Rabbits are famous for their ability to please and are generally easy to operate.
Choosing a vibrator that is beginner-friendly like a bullet vibrator or wand vibrator can make your introduction to sex toys less daunting and more likely to be an orgasmic success. Going with a toy that takes less experience to enjoy doesn’t say anything about your sexual prowess or skills and there’s always room in the toy chest for more sex toys. Get comfortable and then add to your collection as your desires develop and change!

Skilled vibrator operators who want to add to their sex toy collection will benefit from innovative technology, unique ways to play with vibrators, and sex machines.
App-controlled sex toys are a great way to stay connected with a long distance partner or simply exchange control with a partner, taking turns exploring different settings on the toy and learning what arouses you the most. App-controlled vibrators come in a wide variety of styles from wands to egg vibrators to vibrating cock rings. Vibrators with app-connectivity can also have extra features like being able to sync to webcam sites like toys from the Svakom line or sync vibrations to music like toys from the We-Vibe line.
Whether you’re headed out for date night or simply playing around the house, wearable vibrators and panty vibrators are exciting and fun. Wearable vibrators can be used on your own or with a partner and come with a remote control that allows your partner or date to adjust the settings while you wear it. These vibrators are designed to fit snug and comfortable against your body, under your clothes, so no one else will be able to tell you’re wearing one. The secretive fun of this style of vibrator adds to their arousing capabilities.
Sex machines are larger-style sex toys that have bigger, more powerful motors than the average vibrator and mechanics that move a dildo or other attachment to simulate the rhythmic motion of penetrative sex. Saddle-style machines are designed for sitting on and tripod styles can be set up and angled to your preference. Sex machines provide a truly hands free experience and can be used in BDSM scenes.

How to Use a Vibrator
Using a vibrator is a pleasurable and enriching experience, whether for solo play or with a partner. To begin, choose a vibrator that suits your needs—consider the size, shape, and vibration patterns. Ensure the device is clean before use; most vibrators can be cleaned with warm water and mild soap or a specialized toy cleaner (see below for cleaning instructions).
Apply a water-based lubricant to both the vibrator and the area of your body you plan to stimulate to enhance comfort and sensation. Start with the vibrator on a low setting to allow your body to acclimate to the vibrations, then gradually increase the intensity as desired. Smaller vibrators are typically made for the clitoris while others such as rabbits and thrusting vibrators allow you to insert a part of the toy into your vaginal canal. Explore different areas and pressure levels to discover what feels best for you.
Vibrator Care
Like most sex toys, which are typically intended for use on or in intimate parts of the body, thorough cleaning is very important. We recommend using specially designed toy cleaners that both disinfect and are gentle on the materials that will also extend the life of a vibrator.
How to Clean a Vibrator: Step-By-Step Process
Turn off and unplug or take batteries of the vibrator.
Rinse the vibrator under warm water (if it's waterproof). If it's not waterproof, use a damp cloth.
Use a mild, unscented soap or a toy cleaner to clean the surface of the vibrator. Scrub the vibrator thoroughly with the soap.
Rinse off all the soap or toy cleaner and residue under warm water (if waterproof). If not waterproof, wipe down with a clean, damp cloth.
