What is a vibrator?
Vibrators are electromechanical devices which produce vibrations, and are intended to be used in contact with the body to stimulate the nerves and tissue. Vibrators come in many shapes and sizes, and can be used in a variety of ways, including externally or internally to the body. When used for sexual stimulation (rather than for massage or other therapeutic use), vibrators are generally applied to the erogenous zones, and in particular to the clitoris, vulva, vagina, anus or penis.

- What type of stimulation are you looking for?
- Would you prefer rechargeable or battery powered?
- How much should you spend?
