You might be interested in air-suction toys. These toys are similar to oral sex and can be used to replace your favorite vibrator. Samantha Bard, co-owner of Williamsburg Shag, says that air-pulse toys produce intense orgasms which are not like the clitoral orgasm you’d get with a vibrator. The toys are externally designed to surround the clitoris and emit sound waves or pulses to stimulate the nerves. This can create a deeper and more subtle sensation than direct stimulation with a vibrator. Bard points out that no two clitorises will be the same size, so it is important to ensure the mouth of any air-suction toys you purchase fits well. We also asked 12 experts to help us find the best air-suction toys. Below are 13 suggestions from experts: toys that have different-sized mouths; toys for partners, as well as those that can double up as night lights.
The best overall air-suction toy
Womanizer Premium- $200
Taylor Sparks, an erotic educator and founder of Black-owned Intimacy Shop Organic Loven said that Womanizer “perfected” the air-pleasure technique in the five years since the introduction of its first air-suction toys in 2014. She says that Womanizer is the pioneer in offering a variety of intensities, vibrations, and sizes for its air-suction toys. Shan Boodram (author of The Game of Desire) agrees explains that the beam-me-up-Scotty effect, which was introduced by the Womanizer (an incredibly orgasmic toy), is a feature of the clit.
We heard the most about the Womanizer Premium out of all the products. Sex expert and intimacy coach Davia Frost calls the deep, internal sensations it provides “an experience,” adding: “If I close my eyes, it’s almost like I’m feeling this sucking sensation throughout the whole clitoris.” Sexologist Marla Renee Stewart, the co-author of The Ultimate Guide to Seduction & The Womanizer Premium is suitable for many people, according to Foreplay. It comes with two different size stimulator heads that are easy to swap. You can also manually select between 12 intensity levels, and an autopilot mode that cycles through the various levels. It only works when it touches the skin. The toy is quiet when it’s on and it starts working immediately after touching it. This makes it an ideal choice for people with thin walls or roommates. It’s waterproof so you can take it into the shower or bath.
Our experts offer some general tips for anyone who is using an air-suction device, or any other type of air-suction tool, for the first time. First: “Add some lube,” according to sex educator Kenneth Play, the creator of the Sex Hacker Pro Series .and co-founder of an intentional sex-positive community Hacienda Villa. You’ll need a water-based lube if your silicone toy is being used. Play says toys work best when they form a complete sealing seal. He advises users to use a water-based lubricant if your toy is made of silicone.
The best (and most affordable) air-suction device
Lily Allen Womanizer Liberty – $94
The Liberty was created in collaboration with Lily Allen and is basically a reduced version of the Womanizer Premium, but at a lower price. Although the Liberty offers six levels of intensity instead of 12, the Liberty is a more affordable option for those who are looking for an air-suction starter toy. One user said that the toy was “very intense” when we tested it. We also noted that it has a magnetic cover that attaches magnetically, making it more “an avocado” and less “a sex toy.”
