The 19 best thrusting vibrators to take solo play up a notch
Let these thrusting sex toys do all the work for you...
Do you love your rabbit vibrator, but wish it went the extra mile in terms of internal stimulation? Well, we have the answer: thrusting vibrators. Specifically, thrusting rabbits put an emphasis on internal thrusts targeted to your G-spot, while also giving you some super enjoyable clitoral stimulation.
And while there has been some scientific back-and-forth on what the G-spot is and whether it exists, a good portion of women and people with vulvas believe they have one. In fact, a 2021 systematic academic review on the subject suggested that between 51.5% and 84.3% of cis women believe in the existence of a G-spot or a more sensitive area inside the vagina.
But while thrusting rabbits tackling the G-spot is one type of thrusting vibrator, they're not the be-all and end-all of the thrusting game. There are also thrusting butt plugs for folks who are into anal penetration and thrusting prostate massagers to help men and folks with a prostate stimulate their P-spot.
Across all thrusting toys, there is some crossover with sex machines — they create a penetrative experience that’s more similar to partnered sex with another human. Sure, it’s not an actual person, but these toys take the effort out of masturbation; and for some, robot sex is a serious kink.
That being said, you can use a thruster in any situation — it doesn’t have to be a solo sesh — and having your partner use a dildo with some serious motion during partnered sex can be the hottest thing ever.
Below, we tell you everything you need to know about thrusting vibrators, and even share our pick of the best.

How do I choose the right thrusting vibrator for me?
Thanks to tech and innovation, the sex toy industry is constantly inventing new ways for us to shake up solo sex sessions. This is where thrusting dildos and vibrators step in — please, keep them (and us) coming.
First things first: companies may promise that thrusting devices will completely replicate and replace partnered sex, but we hate to break it to you, this won’t be the case. What thrusting vibrators and dildos can do however, is provide a similar experience to partnered sex, with little to no effort from you. With all that in mind, it's worth thinking about what to look out for in a thrusting vibe.
Waterproof claims
According to Gigi Engle, a certified sex and relationship psychotherapist and sex expert at the LGBTQIA+ dating app Taimi, it pays to check out whether your thrusting vibe is waterproof or not. “Thrusting toys are really great for shower use, so be sure you're checking that the toy is shower safe or completely waterproof,” Engle says.
Materials
She also recommends checking the materials toys are made of and only spending your cash with reliable retailers. “Like with all toys, you want to consider the materials the toys are made of; be sure you're looking for something made with body-safe or medical-grade silicone.”
Safety and reliability
“Make sure you're only buying toys from trusted retailers,” says Engle — and she has a point. International standards for sex toys were introduced in 2021 — which means you can look out for an 'ISO 3533: Sex toys compliant' label on any sex toy packaging if you want some peace of mind. However, these regulations are more akin to safety guidelines rather than legally binding rules, so don't assume that all toys are compliant. The bottom line: only ever buy from retailers you can trust!
To take the headache out of finding the thrusting vibe of your dreams, we've put our expert team to work in order to try, test and select a whole range of thrusty probers. We’ve included ones designed for the butt or vagina, with varying lengths, thrust patterns and designs, from a host of our favourite brands. So let’s get into it…
How we test the best thrusting vibrators
In order to find the best thrusting vibes out there, we've tapped our internal team of sex experts to personally test the best thrusty toys out there.
Each person on our team has a vulva and clitoris but the group identifies across the gender spectrum and with a range of LGBTQIA+ labels. Once ensured that our sexperts had a generous supply of water-based lube, we asked them to check out every function and feature across the sex toys' battery life, noise level, settings and thrusting power.
In order to get the mooooost out of the toys on offer, testers tried a variety of positions. The big O isn’t everything — and some folks can’t climax, or experience difficulty in doing so — but we made sure that orgasms were aimed for in each instance.
