Massagers vs Vibrators?

Contributor: lalapetitee lalapetitee 12/16/2011

I don't own any massagers but I am interested in trying one. Do they provide different sensations in general? Are one more powerful than the other? Which do you prefer and why?

I like them both. They take care of different needs for me so I enjoy either depending on my mood and needs at the time. I have the Hitachi Wand and all three Wahl massagers. Out of mine I crave the Hitachi Wand best and it's extremely powerful. I use it for full body and clitorial stimulation. My vibes are mainly internally used or for teasing. Neither are hard to use but vibes have the advantage of no wires where as the hitachi and wahl have cords (the rechargeable wahl is not as powerful). Usually I'll use my hitachi with a dildo and vibe's on their own.

Personal preference, but massagers are sometimes more intense.

I've got both, but the massagers are too big, heavy and just too powerful for my enjoyment most of the time. Give me a nice focused vibe, thank you.

I don't really care for massagers - I don't require anywhere near that kind of power.
So it's vibes for me.

I like both, but I need a massager to come. Good quality massagers (the Wahl, the Hitachi etc) have deeper and stronger vibrations than anything battery operated.

Vibrators are enough to do it for me.

I've never used a massager myself, but I've been looking at some, trying to figure out which one looks like it has the most potential.

Vibrators are easier to use, and more comfortable in my opinion.

vibrators are more a buzz whereas massagers are a rumble

I've never actually tried a massager, so I guess I might not be qualified to vote, but I really do like how vibrators feel. :3

I like both. I don't have Hitachi or Wahl massagers; I have the Mystic Wand Massager by Vibratex and it's able to give me a clitoral orgasm along with the Eroscillator and the Mimi. Anything that allows me to have an orgasm is a winner in my book regardless of design or type.

All three have different advantages/disadvantag es. The Eroscillator is bound by a cord and uses powerful oscillations. The Mimi is small and rechargeable, but can weaken in the middle of a session The Vibratex Wand I have is battery operated and you have to get used to holding it directly in place.

I don't really like massagers since they are so big.

I've tried massagers, and yes, they are much too big for me. And less powerful in my opinion. I actually prefer bullets/eggs.

I require power, so I like massagers. If you require POWER than try massagers.

I prefer massager style vibrators because they (generally) provide "rumbly" vibrations (deep) vs "buzzy" vibrations (high frequency) from things like bullet vibes. That and the handle makes it easier to apply a lot more pressure and lets me reach better in different positions.

I like the power that wands offer, but at the same time, I like having something smaller and easier to hold. They both have their separate purposes, so I say I like both.
