Spend a little more on a luxury vibrator and you'll find the best features and highest quality materials. Creators of luxury sex toys invest heavily in research and are able to develop ergonomic shapes and innovative features, resulting in beautiful objects that are designed to leave you feeling fully indulged.

With a superior build quality and advanced materials, high-end sex toys not only feel great, but they're durable too. Designed to last the course, most luxury vibrators are rechargeable sex toys. Doing away with batteries means the toys are greener, you'll spend less on powering your toy (which offsets the initial investment) and you'll avoid the frustration of running out of batteries mid-session.

Why is a luxury sex toy better?

Luxury vibrators are an investment in your pleasure and this guide will explain the benefits of choosing a designer sex toy and help you to decide which leading brand is right for you.

Exquisite Presentation

Luxurious from start to finish, the packaging of designer sex toys promises sensuality and indulgence from the moment you set eyes on them. In such exquisite packaging, luxury sex toys are the perfect treat - whether it's for yourself or a loved one.

From matt black boxes to satin-lined cases, each luxury toy brand has its unique presentation. The packaging is usually designed so it can be used to store your toy in, keeping it in tip-top condition between uses.

Highest Quality Materials

Most luxury sex toys are made from medical grade silicone, stainless steel and advanced skin-safe plastics. They're body-safe, soft to the touch and extremely durable. However, the quality materials of luxury sex toys don't stop with the external look and feel. If your designer toy is a vibrator, the motors and microprocessors within will also be of the highest quality, ensuring powerful, silent vibrations and unrivalled responsiveness to your touch.

Innovative Design

A massive amount of research goes into the creation of a designer sex toy with special attention being paid to the shape, construction and build of the product. Every aspect is thoroughly tested and improved, from materials used, to the angles of toy and placement of controls.

As well as improving classic toys by making them more ergonomic, designer sex toys also create brand new innovative products, such as the We-Vibe which allows couples to receive clitoral and G-Spot vibrations during sex.

Superior Features

The very best motors and microprocessors are used in luxury vibrators, making them extremely powerful and responsive to the user. As well as having multiple patterns and pulsations, luxury sex toys will often have separate speed settings too. For example, the Lelo Siri has 6 different vibration modes that can be used at 8 different speeds - giving you 48 combinations and the ability to tailor-make your orgasms. As well as packing power and almost endless variety, most luxury vibrators are practically silent.

Rechargeable Technology

The vast majority of luxury sex toys are rechargeable from the mains, and some like the Lelo Mia can even be charged via USB! With magnetic charger technology becoming widely adopted and advances in self-healing silicone, more and more modern sex toys have reached the holy grail of being rechargeable and waterproof.

Examples of rechargeable waterproof toys include Fun Factory's Cobra Libre (a male vibrator), We-Vibe (the couples' vibrator) Lelo's Insignia Range and all toys by Je Joue.
