12 best clit vibrators to help you climax

When it comes to finding a good vibrator, it can be really hard to know where to start. The temptation is to gravitate towards the penetrative versions, but there is a lot to be said for starting small.

Clitoral vibrators, also known as stimulators, are a great place to get to grips with your pleasure without resorting to some of the (ahem) larger items on the market. They are usually lower in price – a good stimulator can cost as little as £30 and still get the job done – which means you can afford to sample a few options to get to understand what you like.

Aside from price, size and colour, there are a few other things to consider when selecting the one that’s just right for you. The firmness, material or ease of use can also interfere with our pleasure and can lead to frustration.

A lot of the older vibes available also tend to be simplistic in that they click on, click off and are made from hard plastic. This is great for those who need a no-muss, no-fuss option but what about those who need a softer touch?

Thankfully, tere is a real trend toward clitorial suction toys which sound more terrifying than they are. These innovative products create sonic waves which can be a blessing for anyone who is super sensitive or possibly struggles with vulva pain. However, these can be a little bit on the lighter side for some. It all comes down to personal preference. But it is great to see the toy industry accepting that one size, and one texture doesn’t suit all.

How we tested

Variety is the spice of life and that is certainly true of vibrators. Why settle for one when there are so many different options available? With that in mind, we tested a range of vibrators: from bullet shapes to extravagant gifting options that come with chocolate. There are many different price points considered in this review starting with the cheapest option at £27 before moving up to the more expensive treats at £170.

We also included a wide variety of different textures including hard plastic bullets or softer silicone options. Some of the vibrators may work for those who have dexterity, reach or pain-related issues so
