Choosing the Best Vibrator for the Job

You have decided to treat yourself to a vibrator but with so many on the market where do you start?

First step - Have a long 'hard' think. What do you want to get from your vibrator? Answering this is crucial if you are to make a good and satisfying purchase.

Things to Take into Consideration

Do you want a vibrator that is designed for penetration?

Do you want a vibrator for external stimulation?

How about a vibrator that is good for external stimulation and penetration?

What about a simultaneous dual action vibrator?

Or, a vibrator that gives different patterns of vibration?

Second Step - Don't be shy or bashful here, "Why do you want a vibrator?'

Here's a start

You are curious

You want to discover what really turns you on.

You want to spice up a long-term relationship.

You want an orgasm

You just want some added fun

Once the above have been answered the next step is to consider whether you would prefer a battery or electric powered vibrator.

Battery operated vibrators do give you a wider choice as they are good for both external stimulation and penetration. These vibrators are often less expensive and come in a huge variety of colors, styles, and shapes.

You will find that many electric vibrators are for external stimulation only as they do need to be plugged into an electrical outlet. But some do come with added accessories for penetration. Electric vibrators are more expensive than battery operated vibrators and they are usually stronger.

External Stimulation - You will probably find that a hard plastic vibrator is best for external stimulation as they give much stronger vibrations.

Penetration - In this instance you will find that a vibrator made from elastomer, silicone rubber or jelly rubber is the best. These materials are soft, giving softer vibrations and added comfort.

External Stimulation and Penetration - For a vibrator that suits both purposes be sure to purchase one where the motor is at the tip. If you get one where the motor is at the base you will only experience the full vibration when using it for penetration.

Dual Action Vibrators

These are less versatile but can be fun to play with. If you desire clitoral stimulation and simultaneous penetration, this is for you.

Vibrators Offering Different Vibrations

These can be really wicked. Depending on the style, you can purchase vibrators that have different patterns of vibrations, multiple speeds, and they pulsate.

This type of vibrator usually has several different patterns to play with which is particularly good for the first time vibrator user.
