When I first saw Playboy’s catalog of sex toys, this one really caught my eye. The unique shape is designed to simulate the feeling of oral sex. Plus, the use is twofold: On one side is a vibrating shaft that can be inserted, and on the other end is a tongue-like mouthpiece shape that can move up and down. It took me a bit of time to get the hang of how the toy works, but in the end, it was very fun and did the job. My only critique? The tongue-like portion is on the louder side, so be wary if you don’t want your neighbor to hear. Otherwise, with nine speeds and functions, you can certainly find a setting that works for you.

This small but mighty toy packs a punch — and fittingly, the Rabbit name coincides with the Playboy brand perfectly. Made for smaller bodies and beginners, it’s compact, with a silicone curved shaft and flexible bunny ears for clitoral stimulation. The rabbit ears vibrate, and the G-spot stimulator at the end of the curved shaft has seven vibrating speeds and functions. I liked that the entire shaft didn’t move up and down (unlike many similarly shaped toys), but rather just a small portion. If you’re on the hunt for your first G-spot toy, this bunny is user-friendly and simple but super effective.

I tend to be hard to impress — but Playboy’s Pleasure Palm vibe really blew my mind. As the name would suggest, this toy fits in your palm. Like many others from the collection, it also has two different functions: The small button-like piece on one end provides focused tapping sensations for clitoral stimulation, while the wider, tapered end vibrates and can be used on the entire vulva. Personally, I love the moon shape, and it’s versatile — you can hold it in your hand, grind against it, sit on it, and more. With two separate motors and 10 different speeds, you can really choose your own adventure.

Can you tell this one is my favorite?

I am not a person with a penis, but I gifted this toy to a friend of mine, who gave me his personal rating. Made with a textured inner channel of thermoplastic, body-safe rubber and beaded rings that move up and down the shaft, the user can experience seven vibrating speeds and rhythms. And unlike other strokers, this one has a clear channel along the side so you can see the action happening. At a slightly higher price point than similar toys on the market like the Love Honey Masturbator for men, it comes with a “Pause” button for when you need a break but want to come back to where you left off. My friend told me it required a bit of getting used to, but still felt good.

If you haven’t seen the viral rose vibrator on TikTok, you might not understand the hype of this type of toy. Reviewers have used the words “life-changing” and “life-altering” to describe it, so I obviously had to give Playboy’s version a try. Just like it sounds, this vibrator is shaped like a rose, but with one twist: a flicking tongue at the end. It provides nine speeds and patterns and also has multiple uses: clitoral, vaginal, and even anal play. According to the brand’s description, it’s “a rose so lovely you’ll have to feel it to believe it,” and I definitely think that’s accurate. Would I use the word “life-changing” to describe it? Maybe not. But I did find it fun, easy to use, and gorgeous.

A panty vibe can add some spice to date night, and Playboy’s version definitely brings it. This is a silicone panty vibrator that you or your partner can wear while the other gets full control with the small remote. With 10 speeds, the motor is extremely quiet, which is exactly what you need if you want to wear it out to dinner. It also has a flexible curve that isn’t bulky or uncomfortable to wear, and perhaps most importantly, makes the toy super discreet. I’d recommend it to anyone into public play.

Historically, I’ve always been a fan of wand toys, and I loved how small and cute this one was. It’s great for slipping in a carry-on bag or bringing it to your partner’s house for some added fun in the bedroom. It has a textured, soft head, and the neck moves along with your body as you use it. I’ve only ever used a smooth wand, so the texture really added something extra and unexpected. It also has metal rings at the very top, which was a surprisingly good sensation. Plus, it’s waterproof and fully submersible — a feature I always look for in my own sex toy collection. This wand is small but mighty and super multi-functional, and it would make a great toy for novices and experts alike.
