14 Best Quiet Vibrators for Discreet Play, Recommended by Sex Toy Experts

Sensing a pattern yet? Lelo products are some of the internet’s favorite sex toys for their supercharged batteries and extra-quiet motors, and the Smart Wand 2 Large is one of the best wand vibrators. Unlike typical wands, this one is shockingly quiet without compromising on powerful vibrations. It’s so strong that it won’t only stimulate your clit and vulva to the fullest, but it can also be the new BFF of your sore muscles. “I actually find myself using it periodically throughout the day to massage my neck and shoulders,” says Chatel.

“If you’re looking for a vibrator that combines elegance with whisper-quiet vibrations, the Lelo Sona 2 Cruise is a fantastic option,” says certified sex expert Mak Adikami, cofounder of LustyBoy. But it’s not only the whisper-quiet ways of Sona 2 Cruise that gets this clit sucker on this list; it’s also the design. “It’s easy to hold for long periods of time if you, like me, tend to go down a rabbit hole of multiple orgasms,” says Chatel.

With the Lovehoney Silencer, the name really does say it all. Lovehoney’s beginner-friendly Silencer, with its smooth and wavy shaft, is great for both internal and external stimulation. “It’s the perfect hitman when you need to murder your vagina but don’t want the whole house to hear it go down,” says Courtney Kocak, comedian and cohost of the podcast Private Parts Unknown.

Womanizer brand has come a long way, and the Pro40 is proof of just how quiet a clit sucker can be—something that’s extremely important for those with a sensitive clitoris. For these people, a suction vibe is a fantastic alternative for reaching an orgasm. “Suction vibrators are the most difficult when it comes to noise control,” says Wood. “This is mostly because if the suction is not sealed perfectly, air escapes. The Womanizer Pro40 is highly regarded for its intense clitoral stimulation and impressive quietness.”

• Type: Suction toy
• Modes: 6 intensity settings
• Waterproof: Yes
• Battery: 4-hour rechargeable battery

The Womanizer Duo 2 combines clitoral suction with a vibrating G-spot stimulator, all without letting everyone in your vicinity know that you’re about to get off. While it might be bulkier than a lot of vibrators, its orgasmic delivery and hushed tones are what really matters—and what you’re paying for with this darling. (Want something a little less intense? Check out the Womanizer Premium 2.) “I’ve gifted this particular toy to a handful of friends, and they all turned into first-time squirters because of it. Pretty impressive, if you ask me,” says Chatel.

The slightly angled top allows for precise external stimulation, so you never miss the mark. “As someone who can never get enough of bullet vibrators, I stand by this small and discreet wonder, and for a bullet, that’s really saying something,” says Chatel. “It excels in exceptional quietness, making it perfect for those who value privacy,” says Wood.

Finger vibrators are great on two fronts. For starters, they allow for full-body exploration. Secondly, due to their size and the fact that they’re on a finger, which absorbs some of the vibration, they’re super quiet. Just slip on the vibe, and you can glide your finger over your body or your partner’s body, stimulating every erogenous zone from head to toe. As an extension of the hand, this ergonomic toy can stimulate direct points. Everyone needs more foreplay in their lives, especially those with vulvas (20 minutes at least!), so this finger vibrator will make both partners want to indulge in extended foreplay.

“For sex toys that allow a partner to give vaginal or oral sex and provide added stimulation, I highly recommend a finger vibrator, which lets your partner stimulate the clitoris while licking the labia or vice versa,” says Lisa Lawless, PhD, who is CEO of Holistic Wisdom.

• Type: Finger vibrator

Although Dame has always done a fabulous job at keeping all their products really quiet, one of their most popular products just so happens to also be its quietest and one of the most discreet vibrators you can buy. “It fits perfectly in my palm. I don’t have to hold anything awkwardly in my hand, and it offers allover vulva stimulation for those of us who like to work our way up to the clit. It’s basically a masturbatory spa for the hand, if that were such a thing,” says Chatel.

• Type: Palm
• Modes: 5 intensity levels
• Waterproof: Yes
• Battery: 1-hour rechargeable battery
• Shipping: Free shipping through Dame

When it comes to long-distance sex toys, there are two groups of people: the We-Vibe crew and the Lovesense gang. While both groups appreciate a great vibrator, it ultimately comes down to shape and fit when deciding between these two fantastic brands. While We-Vibe’s LDR toys sort of clip into place (but without the actual clip), the Lovesense toys scoop their way into the vagina to find their perfect spot. Lovesense Lush 3 definitely does a lot of “scooping” in the way it hugs snuggly against the pubic bone to stimulate both the G-spot and clit at the same time. It’s hands-free pleasure at its finest.

“This toy is phenomenal for couples play, especially those couples looking to spice things up publicly or who are long-distance,” says sex therapist Jenni Skyler, PhD, the resident sexual expert at Adam & Eve.

What’s a quiet vibrator list without a quiet vibrating butt plug to join the mix? I’ll tell you: nothing. If you want the feel of analingus with just the right amount of penetration, this is your vibrator for anal play. “When I tried Rimming Plug 2, everything I thought I knew about butt plugs was immediately erased,” says Chatel.

• Type: Butt plug
• Modes: 6 intensity levels
• Waterproof: Splashproof
• Battery: 1-hour rechargeable battery
• Warranty: 1-year warranty
• Shipping: Free shipping through Lovehoney on orders over $49; free shipping through Amazon Prime

“While I, personally, was initially indifferent to cock rings, I was always thrilled when my penis-wielding partners liked them. But from experience, and trial and error, I learned that my indifference stemmed from low-quality rings. Enter Lelo Tor 3. When it comes to vibrating cock rings, this is essentially royalty. Not only do my partners with penises love the thrill and intensity of the ring, but the design makes sure that my clitoris is stimulated too,” says Chatel. It can also be controlled via an app, so you don’t have to fumble with the buttons on the ring mid-play.

• Type: Cock ring
• Modes: 8 vibration settings
• Waterproof: Yes
• Battery: 90-minute rechargeable battery
• Shipping: Free regular shipping through Lelo on orders over $50.

When the Crave Vesper launched, it was one of a kind. While other types of sex toy jewelry have come out since, the Vesper remains the most iconic. “It looks like a necklace that you can wear, so that’s great for young adults that live with others and really don’t want any toys that look like sex toys,” says sex and relationship expert Tara Suwinyattichaiporn, PhD. “It’s somewhat cost-effective, but the one downside for newbies is that it’s so small and delicate it can be hard to hold steady. It doesn’t have a silicone tip, so for women who prefer a softer touch, this might not be something they like. If you live with your parents or roommates, and want a quiet toy that doesn’t look like a sex toy, this is a good option.”

• Type: Bullet vibe
• Modes: 4 vibration settings
