Whether you’re single, in a relationship, or just want to spice things up, there are plenty of ways to stroke, vibrate, and thrust yourself to an earth-shattering orgasm. From men’s masturbators that upgrade your oft-used hand to cock rings that transfer sensation to your shaft, there are countless options available to make the night more fun and intense than ever.
The key is to avoid the cheap knock-offs that are so common online and instead support brands who produce good, affordable toys and sex shops that curate them. You’ll save money and get a product that lasts longer than a few months, while also supporting the people who are putting their time and energy into making good toys for you.
A great place to start is LELO, which is known for sleek, high-quality toys that feel just as good as they look. Its Hugo prostate massager is a powerful orgasm-inducer for solo play, but it’s also an ideal couples toy thanks to a remote that can be shared. It’s medium in size, so it fits well on most guys and has a motor in both the tip and base of the insertable shaft for a range of sensations.
Another fun and affordable option is the one-time-use Egg stroker from Tenga, which has ridges that grab lubricant for added sensation. The toy’s design means it can also be used as a suction cup, with the valves providing additional stimulation on the inside and outside of the sleeve. The toy is made from body-safe TPE and is latex-free. Though some users say the toy smells like rubber at first, it washes off easily and doesn’t leave a rubbery residue.
For something a little more advanced, the Q-shot from Doc Johnson is a double-sided anal stimulator that’s open-ended and easy to clean. It’s made from a body-safe, odor-free PVC that’s latex-free and comes with a lubricant pad for easy application. It’s available in a few different textures, but the one with a ribbed texture is a big favorite among customers.
If you’re interested in anal toys, consider trying a cock ring. The rings trap blood inside the penis, which can help create a firmer erection and some even come with vibrations to add pleasure for both you and your partner. This cock ring from California Exotics has a tight fit, but it doesn’t cut off circulation or hurt during use. It’s also available in multiple colors, and the sleeve can be covered with a lubricant to add an extra layer of sensual excitement. It can be paired with a prostate toy for a more intense experience, or used alone. The toy is also reusable, but it’s important to use a different lube each time for cleanliness.
