So, you're on the hunt for the best clitoral vibrators. Enter stage right, our handy guide, packed full of top picks from some of the best sex experts in the business. 

A bit of background for you, first: the initial anatomical study of the clitoris was carried out in the '90s. Published in 1998, it prompted an examination under MRI in 2005. During the MRI, urologist Professor Helen O’Connell found the clitoris to have "nerve-rich glans extended beneath the pubic bone and wrap[ing] around the vaginal opening, with bulbs that become engorged when aroused." Speaking to The Guardian, she said: "It looked like an orchid. It was beautiful."

Prior to that, countless medical professionals had dismissed it as some form of "erectile tissue."

Now, we know way more about the clitoris and just how key it is for female pleasure. One 2016 Socioaffect Neurosci Psychol. study found that while 26% of women cum from internal and external stimulation, as many as 70% of women orgasms after clitoral stimulation alone. That's where clit stimulating toys come in, designed to boost both your mental and physical health and enhance solo and partner play. Yep - there's a reason that Sex and the City's Samantha loved her toys so much (and looked so damn good all the time).

That said, there are tonnes of different types of vibrators, as our handy guides to the best rabbit vibrators, best remote vibrators and best bullet vibrators show. That's we've asked five top experts to share their go-to clitoral vibrators, so you know which ones are genuinely worth your money.

Testing process for the best clitoral vibrators

Loads of different factors make a toy one of the best vibrators - things like vibration intensity, battery life, and shape all play an important part, as does the price point (cost of living crisis, we're looking at you). 

That's why we asked our board of experts to share the top toys they've tested - aka, the ones they'd genuinely recommend to a friend and continue to use themselves.

All eight of the vibrators in this round up have been tested over a minimum of one solo or partner session and reviewed for their individual pros and cons. They considered the following factors: 

  • Was the toy an affordable price point?
  • Does it charge quickly, and is it rechargeable or battery powered? 
  • Is the packaging sustainable? 
  • Did it offer tailored and effective clitoral stimulation? 
  • Did it deliver a satisfying clitoral orgasm?
