What to consider before buying your first vibrator
What is the purpose of your new sex toy?
For many, the purpose of a sex toy is simply for pleasure.
Think about where and how you get most of your sexual enjoyment. For example, do you like penetration, clitoral play, or both? Do you like to lie on your front or your back? Or do you feel horny in bed, in the shower or in the bath?
A vibrator or dildo is an excellent way to get familiar with your pleasure points if you've been a stranger to them for a while.
I recommend something simple and gentle to start. Then, work your way up to a more exciting toy when you know precisely what arouses you the most.
It might also be that you want a sex toy to enjoy with a partner, in which case, see here: 10 Best sex toys for couples to have extra fun in the bedroom.
Size and shape of vibrators for beginners
For me, many vibrators and dildos on the market are too big. But I have friends who think the bigger the better! We are all different, and choosing a toy that is the right size and shape is very personal.
Your adult toy must feel comfortable to handle and fit safely into all the places you plan to put it.
Remember that manufacturers can't create human touch and feel however hard they try. I find a good quality lube will make the experience super comfortable and give you the confidence to explore to your heart's content.
What is the vibrator made of?
Many adult sex toys are made of silicone, but not all. You will also find them created from plastics or even glass!
I recommend silicone because:
- It's a softer material
- Kinder to the sensitive regions of your body
- It feels more like the real thing!
- Easy to clean
As you are reading an article about vibrators for beginners, you might not know you can get eco-friendly sex toys. These are designed with both pleasure and the planet in mind. They minimise ecological impact and are typically crafted from body-safe, recyclable materials like:
- Medical-grade silicone
- ABS plastic
A great option to indulge in guilt-free pleasure while contributing to a greener, more sustainable future.
Does the brand matter?
When it comes to sex toy brands, the big names include but are not limited to:
- Lovehoney
- Lelo
- We-Vibe
- Womanizer
I tend not to shop by brand alone as you can save money getting a very similar toy from a lesser-known brand.
Having said that, if you are looking for vibrators for beginners, the recognised brands tend to have more reviews, so you can get more details before buying.
Do you need something quiet?
Having a nice quiet vibrator is at the top of the list for many women.
I will tell you now, that when it comes to vibrator noise, they are not all equal.
A partner once bought me a vibrator that was so loud we nicknamed it 'The Jackhammer'!
Check the finer details or specifications of your chosen toy before you buy. Some will boast about how quiet they are. Others may not say, which usually means it isn't super quiet.
I check the reviews as users often mention noise. If all else fails, contact the company and ask them. Most good online adult toy shops have excellent customer service and Live Chat available 24/7.
Do you want to use it in the shower?
What I mean here is: Do you want a vibrator that you can get wet?
Luckily, most vibrators can sustain some water because they need to be cleaned between uses. However, not all are made for water play.
As mentioned above, check the specs, and if you need clarification, ask!
The power source!
Nearly all vibrators are rechargeable now. But you can still get old-school battery-operated toys suitable for travel if you don't know when you can next juice up.
Many modern vibrators come with built-in rechargeable batteries, or the toy itself recharges. They can be charged using a USB cable or a charging dock.
Some of my toys are compatible with my iPhone charger which is super convenient. The problem comes when I have to decide which one I want charged and ready-for-use the most!
Note: Rechargeable vibrators are eco-friendly, as they reduce the consumption of disposable batteries.
How much does it cost?
We all have a price point.
I advise you to spend as much as you comfortably can on a quality vibrator. I speak from experience that you can fall in love with your toy, so you don't want it dying on you in a year.
Not only that, you are purchasing an item that will be used on delicate, private and special parts of your body. It will also be responsible for giving you much happiness through incredible orgasms.
Surely this is worth saving up for?
The price point for vibrators varies from $20 to $900, so do your research and choose one that you love without exceeding your budget.
Check the reviews
If you thought people would be embarrassed to publicly talk about their experiences and love of sex toys, think again.
As with any other purchase, one of the best ways to get the nitty-gritty is to check the reviews. And boy, do these customers love to share! Not only do you get the low-down on the vibrator, but it's highly entertaining to read them.
The reviews are also where you will find details about product performance, such as motion, noise and feel. All of which are super important with a purchase such as this.
Privacy and packaging
I know from experience that if you order from a well-known sex toy shop such as the Adult Toy Megastore or Lovehoney, your order will delivered with the utmost discretion. They pride themselves on beautiful packing delivered discretely.
Be careful if ordering from a bigger department store like Catch or Amazon. I once gave my daughter a parcel that I thought contained her new water bottle, only to discover it was my new BodyWand! Luckily, the wands can be easily passed off as massagers ... but I had to do some fast thinking!
