The VB List: Favorites, improved

This week’s VB List answers a few of your requests in high style at decent prices — and shows that the Hitachi Magic Wand has had some recent updates. What’s so great about the Hitachi? If you’re unfamiliar with this orgasmic powerhouse, it’s a staple of women’s sex toy boutiques because it’s extremely powerful and has a wide, flat tennis-ball shaped head that is perfect for stimulating the vulva (clitoris!) and squeezing between the thighs in blissful rapture. Some women find that the power of the Hitachi is exactly what they need for strong orgasms, or to ejaculate. The thing is, some women also find that the Hitachi is too strong, and many wish it had more than two (intense) speeds — or that the vibe wasn’t limited by its cord, forever keeping pleasure seekers tethered to a wall and forsaking a good time when the power is out.

Hence the new school of Hitachi, in this week’s list. I’ve also got the trendiest male masturbation toy, the most stylish clit vibe, a superb prostate therapy device (ahem), and more. Have better sex with:

The Japanese Tenga Egg is currently one of the most popular boy toys in the world: Amazon / Babeland

Everyone wants a small, powerful version of the Hitachi for partnered sex — say hello to the Acuvibe Mini: Amazon / Babeland

New and powerful, the Trinity Rechargeable has seven speeds and goes cordless (everywhere the Hitachi can’t): Amazon / Babeland

So many men want an Aneros that vibrates, but without the huge price tag, just like the New Ultimate Prostate Massager 4.0: Amazon

I can’t recommend massage candles like the Fun Factory Allume enough, for the silky warm oil they create of the capacity for the most mind-blowing handjob on earth: Amazon / Fun Factory

Lelo’s gorgeous white ceramic work of art Nea is a gentle, beautiful pleasure: Amazon / Lelo

Update: Reader Jason asked if there were any comparisons between the new Hitachi style vibes; I pointed him to the outstanding comparison review by Dangerous Lilly (via Pleasurists) plus Beautiful Dreamer’s in-depth review of the Mystic Wand and Darling Dove’s stand alone review of the Mystic Vibe. Talk about Consumer Reports style sex toy reviews; these are essential.
