Key Features to Look for in Beginner Vibrators
The best vibrators for beginners are those that are simple, effective, and exciting without being overwhelming. Like all things in life, new skills take time and practice, and self-pleasure is no different. Remember, you don’t need the most expensive, high-tech model to get started. Some of the simplest designs will still deliver amazing results.
Here are the key features we recommend for the best beginner vibrators:
Non-Intimidating Design | Your first vibrator shouldn’t be something that scares you. It needs to look and feel, friendly and inviting. Straightforward shapes with easy to use controls are ideal for a stress-free experience. |
Compact Size | Smaller vibrators are great for beginners as they are typically easier to handle. |
One Touch Control | Simple, user friendly control is key to being able to use your vibrator confidently. Selecting a vibrator with one touch control or a dial or twist control will prevent frustrating fumbling during play. |
Quiet Vibrations | A quiet vibrator may help you to relax. Less noise equals less distractions so you can enjoy the sensations. A quiet vibrator also offers discretion meaning you are naturally less self-conscious. |
Affordable Price Tag | It doesn’t make sense to spend lots of hard earned cash on something you’re not yet sure you like. Purchasing a cheaper vibrator will ensure you can try out vibrator play before investing more heavily. |

How to Use Your First Vibrator: Tips for Beginners
If you’ve selected the right vibrator then using it should be trouble free. To use a vibrator for the first time give these simple steps a try:
- Read any instructions.
- Get to know the vibrator by giving it a go ahead of playtime. Experiment with how to hold, manipulate and operate it.
- When you’re ready, apply a little lube to the vibrator and to yourself.
- Explore your body, trying out how the vibe feels on different erogenous zones. Nipples, the clitoris, the perineum and the banjo are all big fans of vibrators.
- Experiment with different angles and pressure. Varying pressure or changing the angle you position the vibrator, will provide a wider range of sensations making play more arousing and exciting.
- Take your time. There is no point in rushing the process. You need time to understand what turns you on, to fully feel these new sensations and to enjoy the moment. Building up to an orgasm slowly will ensure it is fulfilling and long lasting.
Maintaining and Cleaning Your Vibrator
Keeping your vibrator clean and safe are vital if you want it to ensure long-lasting durability. Here’s our quick guide to cleaning a vibrator.
First and foremost check if your vibrator is waterproof. For a waterproof vibrator all you need to do is:
- Rinse the vibrator under warm running water to remove residue
- Rub the vibrator all over with a mild antibacterial soap or spray with a sex toy cleaner
- If your vibrator is textured, be sure to get into all the nooks and crannies
- Rinse again under warm running water until you are confident all debris and cleaning agent is removed
- Set your vibrator aside to air dry on a clean dry cloth
For vibrators that are not waterproof:
- Wipe the vibrator with a clean damp cloth or kitchen paper, to remove any debris
- Spray with sex toy cleaner and leave for 30 seconds
- Using a clean cloth or more kitchen paper, rub the entire vibrator to remove the cleaner and any remaining debris
- Set aside to air dry
Once the vibrator is 100% dry it needs to be stored away until the next playtime. We recommend using proper sex toys storage. Sex toy storage keeps the vibrator safe and clean until you want to use it again. It can prevent accidental damage to the toy and it ensures discretion, keeping your toys out of sight of any prying eyes.
Common Mistakes to Avoid as a Beginner
To be successful with a vibrator there are a couple of common mistakes you will want to avoid.
- The wrong lube. Using a lube that is not compatible with your vibrator could cause damage and seriously reduce its lifespan. If you are unsure about what lube to go for, choose a water based one. This type of sex lube is compatible with everything including all sex toys and condoms.
- Not using lube. Never mind the wrong lube, using no lube at all is just as much a mistake. Lube ensures the friction of vibrations doesn’t cause soreness whilst also helping the body to relax. Lube is great at supporting those intimate body parts to orgasm.
- Not cleaning your vibrator. Failing to clean up properly will only lead to bacteria, making your vibrator unhygienic, smelly and unattractive for play.
- Rushing. Not allowing yourself enough time to enjoy the moment can prevent you from fully experiencing everything a vibrator has to offer. Take your time and explore at your own pace.
- Ignoring your body. Your body knows you best so if something doesn’t feel right, stop. Listening to your body is key to getting the most pleasure, so take a break, reassess and then try again.
Exploring Further: When to Upgrade Your Vibrator
We’re not saying that you will ever need to get rid of your beginner vibrator. It can always be a trusty pleasure tool in the bedroom toybox. But as you become more confident you may to explore new sensations and extra functionalities. Consider upgrading when you feel ready for more powerful vibrations, different textures, or advanced features. Features may include remote control, app control, warming or even suction. Upgrading from a basic vibrator to a more complex model opens up lots of orgasmic opportunities but you need to get the basics right first.
