Contributor: eri86 eri86
When a vibrator or dildo have moving parts in the shaft, what feels best to you? Something that rotates inside of you, or something that thrusts?

Forum highlights on Vibrating dildos:

Vibrating dildos vs. Non-vibrating dildos
Which do you prefer?

Beginning Dildo/Vibe
Hi! I am looking into getting my first dildo and vibe (with the current promotion) and want to find something recommended for those that like...

realistic or something else
What type do you want, something that looks like a penis or something that is more like an art piece

Realistic Executive - will it work in a harness?
This is a great looking cock, I like that it looks erect instead of pointing straight out, but would it work for gender-play in a harness?

Dildos or Vibrators!!
Which do you prefer, A well lubed none Vibrating flesh colored Dildo, or a Vibrating purple house of pleasure! Let's see what the numbers say!!

I'm not partial to mechanical toys unless it's a simple vibrator with multiple settings. Functions such as thrusting or rotating don't appeal to me because I prefer to have the control over my thrusts, and rotating toys have done nothing for me in the past that I've tried, even the rabbits with the beads. I'm a simple girl, give me a dildo and a vibrator any day.

I'm with Vegan on this one...just a solid dildo and vibe and I'm good to go!

I enjoy toys that do all kinds of things. My girlie parts just like variety.

Oh my, there we differ. I want the digital LED control panel with 1001 settings, and I can assure you, I will try them all. I will even keep a label on the box saying which "settings" are my favorites!

I have a vibe with a rotating shaft. the rotating isn't powerful enough beyond just feeling it. I'd like to have a vibe where the shaft does rotate but strongly so it would give me pleasure.

I like both thrusting and rotation I am easily overwhelmed into numbness with straight vibrations, so at first I was really happy to find the pulse setting on some vibes; that was when I first discovered that vibrations actually could feel good. Then I found the rotating vibes (both beaded and non) and those work really well for me. In fact, I prefer not to have the clit arm of a rabbit running, just the rotation. I can feel even the most subtle of movement inside and I love it! However, I still did not find thrusting a toy to feel good -- that is until the Stronic Eins arrived and blew my mind! I do have to be very worked up though before I can handle the Stronic. Interestingly, both thrusting & rotating sensations are best for me on the lower settings, same as with vibration. I think I am just very sensitive and therefore, I do better with less powerful rumbles as opposed to more (at least initially, but I can handle higher settings toward the end as I approach my climax).

@ Bignuf: Ah ha! I have met my match; my "girly parts" like variety, too! (hmm, that sounds like...well, I restrain myself to sampling like that with toys, not boys, lol.)

@Edeneve: I found the rotation on the Jopen Vr12 to be the strongest I have had and if you use the YouTube trick (annoying video, but couldn't find the good one I originally saw, sorry) where you very slightly adjust it, you can really make that shaft move in a wider circle! On the higher settings, even my PC muscles & their kung fu grip can't stop it from moving - and that's saying something! I know Antipova mentioned in her review of the Vr10.5 that even she couldn't stop the rotation on the high settings and she says she can stop most.

Answering for my wife. When we got our first 'rabbit' she wouldn't let me use the rotation function - but once she tried it - she really liked it and still does. We've never had a thrusting toy - job security for me

@ Gunsmoke: "job security" Bahahaha, good point, but honestly, nothing I have used or seen even comes close to the thrusting a person with a penis can do!

The thrusting and rotating toys I have had have been disappointing, weak and unreliable.

Because I haven't tried them yet. Lol.

With enough power and girth, a toy that rotates and thrust gives me an ultimate orgasm.

I like either one. Not sure which one I like better

Mine doesn't thrust or rotate, it is just a standard vibrator, but I like the sound of the rotating one

Having both gives you more options on what you want day to day when you're using it, so more options more freedom.

It completely depends on how large the toy is & how strong the thrusts are. I've found that most rotation/thrusting toys lack power & make an annoying high-pitched noise when used. They usually come as rabbit-style vibrators, so I just end up using them just for that purpose because they tend to lose power when all the functions are turned on.

Both are amazing and different feelings. Depends on the mood as to which I want.

I like both or at least the option for both since you never no what you're going to feel like wanting on a certain day so why not have both for the days you want both

Both have different feelings for my wife. She describes them both as pleasurable in their own way.

I'm actually interested in picking up one of these. Can I get a few recommendations in different price points?

Check out the some of the Jopen's and the Fun Factory Stronic line either here or on their websites. Of course there are plenty of reviews of them here on EF. They will cost some $ but rechargeable high end silicone toys are well worth the $.

I don't know about the rechargeable toys, with exception to the Lelo Billy, but I have heard that rechargeable toys aren't as powerful. Once again, this is only what I have heard. The only personal experience I have with rechargeable toys are with the Lelo Billy and the Pulse. Those are the only ones I can personally vouch for.

Also, noise is an issue for the partner.

I luv and use both types. Many times both types firing the same session. All vibes are not the same, some are duds!

I love both types, but it must also have clitoral stimulation as well.

a thrusting or rotating toy may feel good, but nothing compares to the real thing. NOTHING! So, I'm pretty sure you have excellent "job security"
