10 sex toys that rock: a review and giveaway (NSFW)

The Trio Cock Ring - Screaming O
  • The Trio Cock Ring - Screaming O
Looking for a toy that will make both partners happy? This little cock ring has two vibrating motors. One to vibrate her clit while the other vibrates his balls. You might be thinking, "Do I really want my balls to vibrate?" I'm here to tell you that you do! If you aren't much into ball play this will be an eye opening experience. Since the ring stays planted on your cock, the fast motor will constantly work its magic. Hold tight to her when you press that top vibrator on her clitoris because she will squirm with delight. The ring is one size fits all - meaning it's made small, though not super small, and will stretch out to accommodate most guys.


RealSkin American Whopper Realistic Dildo - NassToys
  • RealSkin American Whopper Realistic Dildo - NassToys
If you love the look of a big cock, this will give you an eyeful. The RealSkin American Whopper gives more than just a realistic look - it feels almost like the real thing! Suction it to the floor, hold it in your hand, or have your partner thrust it for you. Girls - Bigger sometimes is better so don't let the size of this thing intimidate you. Guys - Rest assured that this dildo will only be a part-time lover. This baby can't whisper in her ear or pinch her nipples while she cums.


Red Rider Strap On - California Exotics
  • Red Rider Strap On - California Exotics
For those who prefer partner action, strap on the Red Rider and get rolling. The beauty of a strap-on is that it works for men and women. Both sexes can be givers and receivers. The straps are adjustable, allowing for almost anyone to ride their love! Great for girl-girl action, men who enjoy a little penetration, men who are too quick on the draw, or men who just want to give their partner a different sensation.


Icicles no. 7 Glass Massager by Pipedream Products
  • Icicles no. 7 Glass Massager by Pipedream Products

Do you like your phallus hot or cold? You actually have that choice with this Glass Massager. Heat it up in hot water or plunge it into a pitcher of ice. The great part about this product is that it actually looks like a piece of art. Put this baby on the mantle for decoration while not in use and after you have cleaned it off. Your kinky friends will get a laugh out of it and your less sexually adventurous friends will be in awe of its beauty.


Waterproof Slender G-Spot Vibrator - Pipedream Products
  • Waterproof Slender G-Spot Vibrator - Pipedream Products
Unfortunately the exact location of the G spot is a mystery to most. The reason for this is that it is at an awkward position that not all can easily access. The Waterproof Slender G-Spot Vibrator reaches far inside that hot box at an angle with ease. With a little assistance from this toy, you might become a squirter too!


Hop n Rabbit Vibrator - Doc Johnson
  • Hop n Rabbit Vibrator - Doc Johnson
The rabbit has long been my favorite of all vibrators. The little ears seem to fit perfectly over my clit, launching me into orgasm ecstasy time and again. It comes with multiple speeds, but I always just set that baby on high. My enthusiastic use of this product has led to more than one broken shaft. I have yet to find a rabbit that can withstand my obsessive need to push that bunny to its limits. Maybe the Hop n Rabbit Vibrator will be able to go the distance like the Energizer Bunny, or maybe I will just have a regular order in for this product!


Hitachi Magic Wand - Vibratex
  • Hitachi Magic Wand - Vibratex
The Hitachi Magic Wand is one toy I have not tried, but I have friends who tell me it's the best toy they have ever used. The vibrator reminds me of my first - a regular back massager that my husband talked me into trying out. It worked well and I eventually graduated to real toys. It seems a little bulky for me; I like to squeeze my legs tight when I cum and this doesn't seem to work for that position. Also, it doesn't have that important 'place holder' to go into my vagina which seems to help me keep the clit vib perfectly placed. With that said, I'm going to keep an open mind about the Hitachi Magic Wand until I actually try one out.


Juli Ashtons Anal Beginners Kit - Doc Johnson
  • Juli Ashton's Anal Beginners Kit - Doc Johnson

My first anal play toy was a small blue butt plug. Since then I have graduated to all types of dildos and vibrators. If you are a beginner and interested in trying many different types and sizes of anal toys, Juli Ashton's Anal Beginners Kit may be a perfect fit for you!


Fleshlight Original Lady - Fleshlight
  • Fleshlight Original Lady - Fleshlight
Sometimes masturbating with your hand just gets boring. While I lack a key body part to test out a Fleshlight, I have heard over and over from my male friends that it is the best toy on the market for men who are not interested in toying with their asses. Fleshlight offers a variety of molds: mouths, vaginas, assholes, and molds of your favorite porn star's assets. The true genus of the product is that it is self-contained. When you are finished you can screw the cap on and it just looks like a flashlight you keep in your sock drawer.


Butterfly Kiss Rabbit Vibrator
  • Butterfly Kiss Rabbit Vibrator
I love anything that pays extra attention to my clit. While I still think the traditional rabbit will forever be my favorite toy, the Butterfly Kiss Rabbit Vibrator comes in a close second. The butterfly fits perfectly over my lips giving the whole area a nice feeling. The small size makes it perfect to bring with you or to keep hidden in your nightstand.

Finding the right sex toy can be as difficult as finding a comfortable pair of stilettos. You will never really know how good or bad your choice has been, or if the proverbial glass slipper fits, until it's too late to return your purchase. I've spent hundreds of dollars trying out toys that just don't work for me. My collection of unloved toys is larger than most people's boxes of childhood toys stuffed in the attic. What's worse is that many of them were too expensive for me to just throw away, and it's not like I can resale them on ebay.

Since sex toys can be costly and their benefits unknown, I decided to do a little research and find out what toys are the most popular. My friends at Swingtastic Toys shared their list of best sellers and even sent a few my way to test drive.
