With so many different versions and varieties on offer, male consumers might have a bit of trouble finding out what are the best sex toys for men. Well, we’ve done our homework so you don’t have to!
STROKE OF GENIUS: THE BEST MALE SEX TOYS
Just like with most things, us guys have it easier. This also holds true when it comes to shopping for sex toys, as we’re not bombarded with a million different types and varieties of hit-or-miss products to anguish over before finally clicking ‘BUY NOW’. We’re the simpler sex, and we have simpler sexual needs. Whereas women have to choose between clit vibes, G-spot massagers (or both at the same time), guys’ toys tend to simply be something you put your penis into.
When we say ‘Male Sex Toy’, your mind likely immediately goes to a Fleshlight or other brand of pocket pussy. And while it’s true that these types of toys make up the majority of male masturbator products, there are some companies that are pushing the envelope and innovating all new ways to climax. Here we’re covering some of these innovators and their pioneering products.
Satisfyer Men
After making their name producing clit-sucking sex toys for women, the Satisfyer brand turned their attention to pleasing and teasing men with the — aptly named — Satisfyer Men. What it lacks in name imagination, it more than makes up for with its performance.
The way that Satisfyer Men differentiates itself from your Fleshlights and Tengas is that in addition to multiple vibration modes, the interior of the toy features a heating function. This added heat can bring the experience to a whole new level of pleasure as it more closely mimics the feeling of being in a mouth or vagina. What’s more, the opening of the toy (where the penis goes in) features added surface area you can use to massage your scrotum as you get warmed up.
In addition to the Satisfyer Men, there’s the Satisfyer Men ONE available as well. It’s also a masturbation sleeve, however without the heating function. Instead, it includes an air pump that tightens the toys around your penis to give a wide variety of experiences. They’re both really great toys, and even better still is that they’re very reasonably priced at under fifty bucks!
PROS
- Reasonable price
- Unique Heating Function
- 7 vibration levels
- Body-safe silicone interior
- Waterproof & rechargeable
CONS
- 1hr use from 3hrs charge
Arcwave Ion Male Stroker
For something completely different, there’s the Arcwave Ion Male Stroker. This innovative masturbator comes from the clever folks at Womanizer, who decided to apply the Pleasure Air™ technology from their line of clitoral massagers to male pleasure.
Did you know that the frenulum (the tissue on the underside of your penis at the base of the head) is chock full of nerve endings, just like the clitoris? With the Arcwave, you can target this very sensitive part of the penis with waves of gentle pressure while you stroke. This toy is an incredibly pricey addition to any collection at 200 bucks, but it’s a solid piece of work, made with quality and including a dock that charges as well as dehumidifies the toy between uses.
This is a very exciting new direction in male sex toys, and we’re pretty sure that many other companies will be copying this new style in the months and years to come.
PROS
- New & innovative stimulation
- Fully waterproof
- Quality craftsmanship
- Charging & drying dock included
CONS
- Expensive price point
- Very specific stimulation may not work for all users
LELO F1s
Always quick to follow a trend and put their own spin on it, LELO jumped in to the male masturbator game with the F1s series of masturbation sleeves that have some eyebrow-raising gimmicks. On the surface, they’re very good vibrating pocket pussies. They look amazing and they feel great, just as you’d expect from a LELO toy.
However like so many sex toy brands, LELO isn’t going to leave well enough alone. The F1s mastubration sleeves are part of their SexTech line of advanced sex toys, which plan to push sex toy tech and capabilities further. The high end version of the F1s, the F1s Developer’s Kit RED, boasts app connectivity and a SDK (software developer’s kit) that will allow users skilled in programming to adjust the toy’s performance to their liking, and then share their program to other F1s users. Aside from that, the F1s toys contain multiple sensors that can be used to gauge feedback on stamina, speed, hardness and more.
It’s all well and good, but if you’re like me, you’re not a programmer — you just want to get off! Because of these very out-there additions to these toys, the asking prices are very steep.
PROS
- Sculpted interior
- Assertive vibrations
- Quality craftsmanship
- Rechargeable & waterproof
- 2hrs use per charge
CONS
- Really superfluous value add-ons
- High price of entry
