Crave Vesper Mini Review: The Discreet Vibrator
The folks at Satisfyer sent me a few of their app-friendly toys recently and a partner and I decided to try a few out (for science). On top of some extensive solo research, I’m here to give you a run-down of a few of their app-controlled sex toys that you might want to pick up ASAP. The other side of the toy—which functions as the handle of the wand portion—is a 5.75-inch long dildo with a motor that allows it to vibrate, twirl, or twist. When used as a dildo, the Vibrato can help people who enjoy penetration get theirs, Weiss says. Many vulva-owners enjoy penetration even more after a clitoral orgasm, as the vagina often expands and becomes more lubricated in response to pleasure, she says. As such, she loves that each side of the vibrator can provide a different kind of orgasm.
And their standard treatment, bleeding, killed more people than it helped. For more on the 19th-century treatment of hysteria, read The Road to Wellville by T.C. Not surprisingly , these beliefs left an enormous number of women sexually frustrated. They complained to doctors of anxiety viberators, sleeplessness, irritability, nervousness, erotic fantasies, feelings of heaviness in the lower abdomen, and wetness between the legs. This syndrome became known as “hysteria,” from the Greek for uterus. After a few minutes of fiddling with the controls, I got the hang of it—however, I think the slightly confusing design keeps this vibe from being quite as beginner-friendly as it could be.
Regardless, I found that the Womanizer Premium is user friendly and powerful, especially on the higher notches. With 12 intensity levels, there’s something for everyone, and I didn’t get near the top intensity in order to climax. Scouring the internet, asking sex educators, and looking at bestsellers on Babeland and Adam & Eve, however, led me to some of the most popular sex toys on the market. Vibrators of varying designs popped out as being the most functional or the best bang for its buck (literally) or the best blended orgasm. IntensityControl adjusts the thickness and throb of the vibe (chorus) effect from subtle waving all the way to a deep and strong «heart-beat» like warble. In vibrato mode it adjusts the amount of pitch de-tuning effect.SpeedControl adjusts the rate of the pulsations of the vibe (chorus) or vibrato effect.
The biggest compliment I can offer the Connaisseur MJ is the considerable time I spent with it in a meditative musical state—thinking not about a review, just basking in its warm, sprightly resonance and inviting touch response. At $2,499, the Godin arguably offers more personality than a satin-finished instrument at the same price with a more famous name. It’s well built and feels like a guitar that’s in it for the long haul. And when it comes to tone and a pure playing experience, the Connaisseur MJ shines.
Like the Magic Wand, it’s corded, so it can’t die on you mid-solo session. Meanwhile, the aluminum and titanium handle adds some heft, which increases the amount of pressure this vibe can deliver. We still think these toys are worth recommending, even though they didn’t make it into our top picks. (After all, every wand vibe can’t be the best!)

Another highly praised rabbit-style vibrator is the We Vibe Nova ($149), which features a flexible arm that moves with you and has 10 vibration settings. This two-in-one vibrator has a far more modern design than the original Rabbit vibrator.
The We-Connect app lets couples control the product even when they’re miles apart, bringing a new charge to long-distance relationships. In fact, while most sex toys are great for solo play, they can also be a fun part of partnered sex if you want them to be. “It’s also a way to signal more of what you like, which is a thrilling way to grow the relationship.” In particular, those who can’t reach orgasm through penetrative sex, or people who simply want to explore new avenues of masturbation.
This jeweled sex toy comes complete with 15 vibration patterns and 6 intensity levels, so you can always find the right setting to get you going. And with up to 90 minutes of continuous use, you’ll be able to enjoy backdoor fun all night long.
