Did you know? There are some *very* exciting sex toys for couples available these days..

Best sex toys for couples: A woman and man kiss in bed

If you’ve ever been stuck in a rut and felt like you don’t know how to be intimate with your partner, it might just be time to invest in one of the best sex toys for couples.

Fun fact: UK sex toy statistics reveal that 45% of couples have used a toy at some point in their relationship. A bit like serial monogamy, sex toys can commonly be misjudged as a little taboo when, really, they’re a great way to explore your sexual freedom and enhance your sex life.

Sex therapists maintain that using one of the best sex toys as a couple – if both parties are comfortable, keen and interested in doing so – can be a sure-fire way to spice up your love life and reignite some passion in the bedroom. Even shopping for said toy could act as an exciting form of role-play. Keep scrolling.

Best sex toys for couples: how do I know which to buy? 

Good question. Our advice? Always read the reviews and go with a brand you know and trust. Key considerations:

– Do you want to buy a toy that you use on your partner, or a toy that works on both of you at the same time?
– Do you want a toy that vibrates, or a toy that massages, or a toy that you can insert?
– Do you need a quiet sex toy or is noise not an important factor?
– Do you need your toy to be cheap, or do you have more expendable budget?
– Do you have a particular type in mind, eg cock ring, couple’s vibrator, jiggle balls, or dildos?

Our personal favourites are the Lelo Tor 2 (a couple’s ring, hello), LoveHoney Satisifer couple’s vibrator and the Sqweel oral sex stimulator (the clue is in the name).  Keep reading for our full round up of the best sex toys for couples.

Best sex toys for couples: Durex Play Vibrations Cock Ring

Price: £5 from amazon.co.uk

Good for: Couples who just want to give it a try

Review: With a price as low as £5 you might think it’s not worth the bother, but Durex’s Play Vibrations penis ring is a great example of orgasmic value for money! It slides over his penis and the tiny vibrator stimulates your clitoris as well as giving him exciting vibrations, too. It’s an ideal starter sex toy and is great for travelling with as it’s small and you won’t need a charger. Be aware, though, each ring lasts around 20 minutes, so you might want to keep a back-up!

4. LoveHoney Tease Finger Vibrator

Best sex toys for couples: LoveHoney Tease Finger Vibrator

Price: £9.99 from lovehoney.co.uk

Good for: The couple who don’t want another ‘penis’ in the bedroom

Review: Phallic vibrators and dildos can be off-putting for men, and yet other men suffer ego damage at the idea that a vibrator can get you to orgasm when maybe they can’t… which is why the LoveHoney Finger Vibrator is so great. This is a vibrator that fits onto his fingertips, so your man is still giving you your orgasm, just with a little help. But it’s not just about your orgasm, you can also put it on your fingertip to stimulate him while using your hands.
