Sarah's Favorite Toys of 2026

As a professional sex toy tester, I have enough toys to make my bedroom look like an electronics warehouse. Most of the toys are good. Some are great. A few make me wonder if anyone involved in their creation has ever encountered a human body.

And then there are the toys I keep going back to, the ones I recommend to friends, customers, and anyone at a party who makes the mistake of asking me what vibrator they should buy.

These are those toys. 

I've divided my favorites into sex toys for women and sex toys for men to make this guide easier to navigate, but obviously, anatomy isn't the same thing as gender. Shop according to the body parts you want to please.

Read on for my picks of the Best Sex Toys of 2026. You can also browse my full Sarah's Favorites collection for a complete list of the toys I love the most. 

The Best Sex Toys for Women in 2026

SVibe Snail Twinn Finger Vibrator

The SVibe Snail Twinn Finger Vibrator feels different from a standard vibrator almost immediately. Instead of hammering away with vibration at one tiny spot, its Compression Technology surrounds the clitoris and creates a slower, fuller build.

The Twinn has 2 motors, 5 speeds, 5 modes, and more combinations than I can count. I also love the finger-worn design, which gives you the intimacy and precision of using your hand rather than a gadget. The teal and lilac colors are app-enabled for remote and long-distance play, while the red is manually controlled (and a bit less expensive as a result). 

The Twinn is rechargeable, quiet, waterproof, and one of the most unique and stimulating clitoral toys I tested this year. 

Best for: Clitoral stimulation that doesn't feel like every other vibrator. It's also a great option for intercourse

FemmeFunn Aluna Dual Stimulating Arc Vibrator

The FemmeFunn Aluna Dual Stimulating Arc Vibrator is one of those toys whose design makes more sense the minute you use it. One end delivers a rhythmic thumping sensation while the other vibrates. You can use either side independently, or combine them if you want an intense blend of sensations. 

The flexible arc is designed for simultaneous G-spot and clitoral stimulation, with 5 thumping speeds, 4 vibration speeds, 7 patterns, and a boost mode to push yourself over the top. 

The Aluna is made from FemmeFunn's ultra-soft silicone, with a fast-charge system that can fully power the toy about 30 minutes. If regular vibes don't do it for you, check out the Aluna. Its thumping setting resonates through the entire clitoral network. 

Best for: Combining G-spot and clitoral stimulation, exploring beyond traditional vibration

Womanizer Next DUO

If you love air pressure but want internal stimulation, too, the Womanizer Next DUO is the luxury version of both.

The external piece stimulates the clitoris with Womanizer's 3D Pleasure Air Technology, while the internal arm delivers deep, rumbly vibration to the G-spot. You can control not only the intensity of the air stimulation but its depth, which makes the experience more customizable than a basic suction toy.

The Next DUO includes 14 intensity settings, 10 vibration patterns, while the Smart Silence feature keeps the motor dormant until the toy is close to your body. Is the Next DUO on the pricey side? Yes. Is it worth every penny? You bet it is.

Best for: Unbeatably pleasurable clitoral and G-spot stimulation

ROMP Jiggle Thrusting Dildo

Sometimes you don't want a toy that vibrates. You want one that does some of the work.

The ROMP Jiggle Thrusting Dildo creates an actual in-and-out thrusting motion, with 6 speeds and 4 thrusting patterns. The suction-cup base attaches to a smooth, nonporous surface, so you can use it hands-free on a floor, wall, shower surface, or wherever your imagination takes you.

The Jiggle is a particularly good choice for folks who like riding or thrusting stimulation, but don't want a gigantic machine taking up half the closet. It's also anal-safe and great for prostate massage. 

Best for: Hands-free, easy-to-use, super-portable thrusting

Magic Wand Waterproof Rechargeable Vibrator

You know the Magic Wand Waterproof Rechargeable Vibrator. Well, now it can get wet.

The legendary wand finally comes in a fully waterproof, submersible version, without sacrificing the deep, rumbly power that made the original famous. It has 4 intensity levels, 4 vibration patterns, a soft silicone head, and a flexible neck that makes it easy to press, grind against, or position exactly where you want it.

Not only is this Magic Wand waterproof, it's cordless, with a best-in-show motor that runs up to 3 hours on a full charge. And because this is still a full-size Magic Wand, it works with compatible G-spot, P-spot, and internal attachments when you want to expand its job description.

Best for: Anyone who has ever wished their Magic Wand could join them in the shower

VibePad 3 Grinding Pad

I have been a grinding-toy evangelist for years, because after all, not everyone wants pleasure delivered by something shaped like a penis! The VibePad 3 Remote Controlled Grinding Pad takes that concept and gets considerably more ambitious.

2 vibrating silicone arches stimulate the clitoris and perineum as you grind against them, while a curved internal vibrator targets the G-spot. 3 motors can be controlled together or independently, and there's a remote, which comes in handy when you don't feel like hunting for buttons. It's waterproof and rechargeable, as well.

Best for: External stimulation in a form you can grind against. The vibrating dildo delivers vibes to the G-spot, leaving (almost) no spot untouched

SVibe Snail Gizi Pro Triple Stimulator

The SVibe Snail Gizi Pro Triple Stimulator is not here to make a modest contribution.

It combines clitoral, vaginal, and anal stimulation in one flexible toy, powered by 3 powerful motors. The clitoral motor can be controlled separately from the vaginal and anal motors, with 5 speeds and 5 modes creating more than 600 possible combos.

The Gizi Pro's shape is designed to stay aligned with the body rather than forcing you to continually reposition 3 different things at once—which, unless you're an octopus, is useful.

It's also made from body-safe medical-grade silicone and is fully waterproof.

Best for: Maximalists who like to pleasure as many zones as possible

The Best Sex Toys for Men in 2026

Male sex toys have gotten dramatically better. The old choice between your hand and a rubber sleeve that looked vaguely medical has been replaced by heating, vibration, air pressure, app control, automatic movement, and genuinely clever design.

These are the six I would start with.

TENGA FLIP 360 Stroker

The TENGA FLIP 360 Stroker proves that a male masturbator doesn't need Bluetooth, an app, or seventeen motors to be excellent.

Its interior has a helical design with textured pressure pads that surround the penis. You control the intensity simply by squeezing the outside of the toy. The Green model offers a somewhat softer, enveloping sensation, while Purple is designed for firmer stimulation.

The other reason I love the FLIP design is profoundly unsexy but important: it opens. Anyone who has spent ten minutes minimum trying to clean and dry the mysterious interior tunnel of a stroker understands why this matters. The whole thing flips apart for washing and drying. Genius.

Best for: Anyone who wants a powerful, ultra-stimulating stroker that doesn't involve motors or apps.

VUSH Sol Vibrating Stroker

The VUSH Sol Vibrating Stroker is simple in all the right ways.

This open-ended silicone stroker has flexible wings that let you control the pressure. It can stimulate the entire shaft or concentrate sensation in one area, and the open design leaves the head and testicles accessible during partnered play. We particularly love it as a blowjob accessory. 

Add 10 vibration modes, waterproof construction, and a very manageable size, and you have the perfect versatile stroker. It's budget-friendly, too! 

Best for: Stimulating solo sessions and play with a partner 

Snail Vibe Ikon VOLT Heating Masturbator

Heating sounds like a gimmick, until you use a stroker that actually does it well.

The Snail Vibe Ikon VOLT Heating Masturbator combines warmth with powerful vibration and adjustable friction. There are 9 vibration options, 6 friction modes and 2 warming settings, along with an Intense Climax Mode for the end of the proceedings.

The Ikon VOLT is the sort of toy I recommend to someone who already owns a basic stroker and wants to know what the next generation of male masturbators can actually do. Well, here you go. 

Best for: Realistic warmth, deep vibes, and adjustable stimulation

TENGA Arte Drape Stroker

The TENGA Arte Drape Stroker is the simplest and one of the most pleasurable strokers we've ever tried. 

How does Tenga manage both these feats at once? This soft, stretchy sleeve is built from overlapping layers of lifelike elastomer filled with folds and crevices, with a snug base that adds extra pressure as you stroke.

Unlike an automatic masturbator, the Arte Drape allows you to control absolutely everything. The speed, depth, and intensity change depending on your grip and movement.

The Arte Drape is lightweight, waterproof, and small enough to fit in your palm, and you can turn it inside out for cleaning and drying. As if that weren't enough, the price can't be beat. 

Best for: Anyone who craves intense stimulation without a lot of bells and whistles

LELO Hugo 2 Prostate Massager

A good prostate toy requires more than vibration. Shape is key, because a motor is not much help if it doesn't deliver stimulation where you want it.

The LELO Hugo 2 Vibrating Prostate Massager has two motors positioned in the tip and base for prostate and external stimulation. Its curved silicone shape is sized to be approachable enough for newer prostate players without feeling underwhelming for the aficionados among us.

You can use the built-in controls to operate the Hugo 2 manually, or connect it to LELO's app to unlock additional modes and customization. This toy is made from non-porous silicone for easy cleaning and it's waterproof for aquatic fun. 

Best for: Deep, rumbly prostate massage in an accessible package

The Dame Hug Vibrating Couples Ring

The Dame Hug Vibrating Couples Ring is designed to make intercourse equally orgasmic for both partners. 

Instead of the usual rigid vibrating ring, the Hug is soft, flexible, and bendable, so you can adjust where the vibration lands—against the clitoris or perineum—while the ring itself provides snug pressure around the penis.

It has 5 intensity levels and 5 vibration patterns, with a flexible design that moves with your body. It’s also waterproof, made from body-safe medical-grade silicone, and quiet enough so the motor won’t become the loudest participant in the room.

Best for: Couples who want a vibrating C-ring that pays attention to both partners

So, What's the Best Sex Toy of 2026?

I refuse to pick one, because that would require pretending everybody gets off the same way.

If you're shopping for the best sex toy for women, start with the kind of stimulation you already know you like. Love external pleasure? Look at the Snail Twinn. Need internal and external stimulation together? Try the Womanizer Next DUO or Gizi Pro. Prefer pressure and movement to penetration? The VibePad 3 has you covered.

The same rule applies when shopping for the best sex toys for men. Someone who loves texture may be happier with the TENGA FLIP 360 or Arte Drape than with a more complex electronic toy. If vibes are your thing, you may prefer the VUSH Sol. And anyone curious about prostate play can't get a better introduction than the Hugo 2. 

One thing I've learned after testing hundreds of sex toys is this: the best choice isn't necessarily the priciest, newest, or most technologically advanced. It's the one you keep going back to again and again.
