Choosing a vibrator shouldn't feel overwhelming or judgmental—it's one of the most empowering decisions you can make for yourself. Whether you're curious for the first time or you've been exploring for years, there's a perfect vibrator out there for your body and your desires.
This guide walks you through everything you need to know: the types available, how to find what works for YOU, what materials matter, and why shopping at NBN makes all the difference.
Types of Vibrators: Finding Your Style
Vibrators come in dozens of shapes and sizes, each designed for different sensations and preferences. Here are the main categories:
Wand Vibrators
The classic. Broad, flat head that delivers powerful, rumbly vibrations across a larger surface area. Perfect if you like intense stimulation or broader coverage. The Mercedes of vibrators—reliable, versatile, and beloved for a reason.
Bullet Vibrators
Compact, discreet, and portable. Great for beginners because they're usually affordable and easy to control. Perfect for travel, quick moments, or trying something new without commitment.
Rabbit Vibrators
Dual stimulation in one toy—internal and external. The "ears" provide clitoral stimulation while the shaft goes inside. If you like blended pleasure, this is your category.
Clitoral Vibrators
Designed specifically for external stimulation. Smaller, focused, and often with suction or pulsing features for unique sensations. Incredibly effective and come in fun shapes (cones, butterflies, lipsticks).
App-Controlled & Remote Vibrators
Let a partner control the vibrations from their phone—same room or long-distance. Add an element of anticipation, surprise, and teamwork to partnered play.
Luxury Vibrators
Made with premium materials, advanced motors, and sleek design. Higher price point, but often quieter, longer-lasting, and more powerful. Think of it as the investment piece in your pleasure toolkit.
How to Choose a Vibrator That's Right for You
The best vibrator is the one YOU'LL use. Consider these factors:
Sensation Type: Do you prefer rumbly (deeper, more satisfying vibrations) or buzzy (surface-level, intense)? Most people discover they strongly prefer one over the other. Wands tend to rumble; bullets tend to buzz.
Size & Portability: Will you use this at home, travel with it, or keep it discreet? Smaller doesn't always mean less powerful—modern motors pack a lot into compact designs.
Noise Level: If discretion matters, prioritise quieter motors. Premium vibrators are significantly quieter than budget options.
Power & Speed: Do you want one speed or multiple settings? Some people know exactly what they want; others like options. Both are valid.
Solo vs. Partnered: Are you exploring alone or incorporating this into partnered play? Some vibrators are designed for couples' comfort.
Materials & Safety: What Your Vibrator Should Be Made From
This matters more than you think. Your intimate health depends on what touches your body.
Silicone: Body-safe, non-porous, and lasts forever. The gold standard. Easy to clean, compatible with most lubricants, and naturally feels soft and comfortable.
Glass or Stainless Steel: Non-porous, durable, and amazing for temperature play (chill in the fridge for a unique sensation). Hypoallergenic and perfect if you have sensitive skin.
Avoid: Jelly rubber, phthalate-containing plastics, and anything mystery materials. These degrade quickly, harbour bacteria, and can cause irritation.
Waterproof vs. Water-Resistant: Waterproof means fully submersible (great for shower play). Water-resistant means splash-safe but not for full dunking. Know the difference for your use case.
Cleanliness: Always wash your vibrator before and after use with warm water and toy cleaner. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat.
