6 Best Couples Sex Toys (2025), Tested and Reviewed

As much as I’m a fan of partnered sex, I’ve learned that the best (and easiest) way to elevate any sexual experience is by bringing couples’ sex toys into the equation. These are not just toys you use with a partner(s) in the bedroom, but they also include devices that can be controlled remotely—whether you’re in a long-distance relationship or your partner is on a business trip.

Advances in sex tech and overall mainstream acceptance have shed the stigma that using one of these gadgets means something is lacking in a couple’s sex life. Instead, these sex toys are seen as an extra hand, so to speak, allowing for deeper exploration and other ways to experience pleasure together.

Not sure where to start? Don’t worry, I’ve got you covered. I’ve been testing and reviewing sex toys for close to a decade, and I’m here to help you figure out exactly which couples’ sex toy is going to be most compatible for you and your partner.

Not every sex toy on this list may apply to every gender and sexuality, but there’s still something for everyone here. Be sure to check out our other sex tech guides, including the Best Sex Toys, Best Vibrators, Best Clitoral Suction Toys, Best Lubes, Best Sex Machines, and Best Mattresses for Sex.

### Why Might You Want a Couples’ Sex Toy?

There’s no one reason why someone might want to give a couples’ sex toy a try. For some, it may be simply a matter of curiosity and seeing what all the hubbub is about, while for others, there could be an interest in wanting to explore other ways in which sexual pleasure can be enjoyed together.

It’s important to realize that wanting to experiment with couples’ sex toys doesn’t say anything negative about your sex life or even remotely suggest that something is lacking. Instead, being open to the idea speaks volumes about how much you and your partner prioritize the sexual aspect of your relationship, your desire to understand each other’s wants and needs better, as well as work on your communication skills when it comes to sex-related topics.

### How to Broach the Subject of Sex Toys With Your Partner

If you and your partner have never used couples’ sex toys (or even standard sex toys for that matter), then the first step is broaching the subject in an honest and open way.

If you’re someone who already has a stash of sex toys you use when you’re rolling solo, then you can start the conversation by explaining how much pleasure you derive from using sex toys alone and that it’s something you’d like to share with them.

Although sex toy use has become very mainstream, there are still some people who aren’t totally on board. Some partners might see the subject of couples’ sex toys as you hinting that you’re not satisfied in the relationship.

If this is the feedback you get from your partner, it’s important to explain that using sex toys together isn’t about replacing a partner but rather about enhancing what you already have. After all, sex tech innovation can do things that the human body just can’t, creating other ways to have fun and even tap into possible kinks neither one of you may have realized you had.

### What to Look for in a Couples’ Sex Toy?

The first thing to take into consideration is what interests you most.

– Are you looking for a bit of a helping hand in the clitoral stimulation department during penetration?
– Or are you looking for a device that can aid in foreplay so both you and your partner can prolong those intimate sessions?
– If you and your partner are in a long-distance relationship and are hoping to find a vibrating dildo, cock ring, or butt plug that can be controlled by an app, then that’s the direction to take your search.

Reading reviews of couples’ sex toys, as well as the information on the device’s packaging, will really help guide you in your search. You may find yourself dealing with a bit of trial and error, but that’s part of the fun.

No matter what toy you decide on, make sure it’s made of body-safe silicone, especially if it will be used internally.

In addition to material, features are also something to consider:

– Is it waterproof or only splash-proof?
– Is it best for someone with a penis or someone with a clitoris?

Being able to answer these questions before you start your couples’ sex toy shopping will really help you narrow down what’s likely to be the best fit for you and your partner.

—

### Other Sex Toys to Consider

Here are a few other toys that aren’t quite as great as the top picks but are still worth a try.

**Lelo Tor 3 – $116**
If you love cock rings but wish they were app-enabled, meet the Lelo Tor 3. While at first the Tor 3 looks very snug, this ring is extremely flexible, making it a perfect fit for all penises or strap-ons. It’s designed to stimulate the clitoris when paired with a partner who has a vulva.

Although you can score a whopping two hours of playtime with Tor 3, it’s paramount that you don’t exceed 30 minutes of restricted blood flow to the penis. And if at any time things start to hurt — not in a good way — remove the ring immediately.

Unlike the Dame Hug, the Tor 3 doesn’t have pinchable arms, so it’s up to users to be mindful of time limits and potential side effects.

—

**Unbound Bender – $69**
The Unbound Bender isn’t marketed specifically as a couples’ sex toy, but as far as I’m concerned, it absolutely is.

The Bender earns its name because it bends this way and that, making both external and internal stimulation fun. Similar to the Dame Pom, it’s not app-connected but offers couples a chance to experiment with different types of stimulation from head to toe — either as foreplay or the main event.

With 10 vibration modes and two hours of run time, you and your partner can light some candles, put on your favorite album, and explore each other’s bodies. Safe for vaginal and anal play, the Bender’s versatility really allows you to get creative in how you use it.

—

**B-Vibe Rimming Plug 2 – $108**
Ilana Wexler said, “It’s 2014. Anal is on the menu,” in *Broad City*, over a decade ago, so it would be profoundly wrong not to include the remote-controlled B-Vibe Rimming Plug 2.

This toy falls into the couples’ sex toy category thanks to its easy-to-use remote. Whether you’re new to anal stimulation or a seasoned fan, this plug offers everything you’d want.

It’s not too big, and people with prostates will thoroughly enjoy the internal stimulation, not to mention the rotating beads at the base of the plug that stimulate the anus — adding a sensation anyone with a butt can enjoy.

SCOOP: Rs. 20 crores spent on the GRAND Bhediya scene in Thamma; was shot under Amar Kaushik’s supervision

The grand Diwali release **Thamma** is a part of the much-loved Maddock Horror Comedy Universe. As expected, characters from earlier films make an appearance in this Ayushmann Khurrana-starrer.

Back in July, Bollywood Hungama revealed that Varun Dhawan appears in the film, reprising his role as Bhediya. The actor reportedly shot for six days, and the scene featuring him is said to be a visual spectacle. Now, Bollywood Hungama has uncovered some fascinating details about this sequence.

A source shared, “The makers decided to go all out with the scene of Betaal vs Bhediya. Hence, a mind-boggling amount of Rs. 20 crores was spent just on that sequence. Producer Dinesh Vijan was clear – the fight scene should have top-class VFX that would stun the viewers. After all, this scene is very crucial for the future of the universe.”

The source further revealed, “Amar Kaushik, the founder and mentor of the Maddock Horror Comedy Universe, serves as the producer of Thamma. But for the crucial Bhediya scene, he was personally present on set to supervise. With so much at stake, Amar decided to oversee the filming. Thamma’s director, Aditya Sarpotdar, was informed in advance and completely understood Amar’s point of view. He was more than happy to have Amar on set and appreciated his valuable inputs.”

**Thamma** stars Ayushmann Khurrana, Rashmika Mandanna, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, and Paresh Rawal.

The breathtaking Betaal vs Bhediya showdown has left audiences in awe, blending cutting-edge VFX with Amar Kaushik’s trademark storytelling flair. With *Thamma* now cementing the foundation for the next chapter in the Maddock Horror Comedy Universe, fans can look forward to even grander crossovers and deeper connections in upcoming films.

Robert Irwin ‘Breaking Point’ Fears Erupt — Late Crocodile Hunter Steve’s Only Son ‘Risks Hitting a Wall Sooner or Later’ as Fame Pressure Mounts From ‘DWTS’ Gig

**Robert Irwin Faces Pressure Amid Rising Fame from Dancing With the Stars**

*Published Oct. 24, 2025, 5:45 p.m. ET*

The late Steve Irwin’s son, Robert Irwin, has sparked concerns among close sources that he might be pushing himself to the “breaking point” due to mounting pressures from his rising fame on *Dancing With the Stars* (DWTS), RadarOnline.com can reveal.

At just 21 years old, Robert has quickly become a fan favorite on DWTS. His recent tear-jerking performance honoring his mother, Terri Irwin, during dedication week deeply touched audiences. As his star continues to rise—with more TV gigs and projects coming his way—insiders warn that burnout could be imminent if he doesn’t slow down.

—

**Robert Irwin’s DWTS Success Leads to New Opportunities**

According to well-placed industry insiders, Hollywood executives are eager to capitalize on Robert’s newfound popularity. Talks are reportedly underway to have the Australian conservationist host the upcoming U.S. version of the UK survival show *I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!*

One source revealed that plans include filming the U.S. series near the Australia Zoo, the wildlife sanctuary owned and operated by the Irwin family.

“Robert is a natural. He has the charisma, the humor, and that genuine love for the outdoors that Americans absolutely adore,” the insider explained. “Everyone sees him as the next big global wildlife presenter, and the timing couldn’t be better.”

—

**Captivating U.S. Audiences**

The Irwins have long held a special place in American hearts, thanks to the late Steve Irwin’s iconic show *The Crocodile Hunter*. When Robert’s older sister, Bindi Irwin, 27, competed on DWTS in 2015, U.S. audiences voted her the season champion. Now, Robert is following in his father’s and sister’s footsteps, captivating viewers with his charm and impressive dance skills.

“The reaction to Robert has been overwhelming,” the insider added. “He’s funny, polite, and down-to-earth. American audiences can’t get enough of him.”

Terri Irwin, Robert’s mom, is also reportedly supportive of the *I’m a Celebrity* U.S. reboot, with sources saying she believes the opportunity aligns well with the family’s brand.

**Terri Irwin Advises Caution on ‘Risqué’ Offers**

In addition to the survival show, producers of *The Bachelor* have expressed interest in recruiting Robert for their franchise. However, Terri Irwin was apparently less than thrilled about this, stepping in to advise her son against considering the dating show.

When asked about the possibility, Robert responded with a lighthearted, “Stranger things have happened.”

Insiders also noted that Robert has declined other “risqué” offers following his DWTS success, including proposals to join Las Vegas male revue shows such as Chippendales and Thunder From Down Under.

—

**Family-Friendly Projects and Warning Signs of Burnout**

Choosing to focus on family-friendly projects, Robert recently agreed to voice a character named “Robert Furwin,” a koala, in the upcoming animated film *Zootopia 2*.

As work opportunities continue to pour in, sources caution that the young conservationist turned Hollywood darling may need to consider slowing down for his own well-being.

“Robert is booked and busy,” one source shared. “However, he is going non-stop—and even a fit, healthy lad like him risks hitting a wall sooner or later.”

As Robert Irwin’s star continues to rise, fans and family alike hope he finds the right balance between career opportunities and personal health.

El nuevo look de Manelyk González, exparticipante de La Casa de los Famosos

La creadora de contenido Manelyk González, exparticipante del reality show *La Casa de los Famosos*, sorprendió a sus fanáticos la noche del 23 de octubre en los Premios Billboard de la Música Latina 2025 al mostrar su nuevo color de cabello. Ahora, la ‘Pajarita’, como también es conocida, luce rubia.

En la alfombra roja del evento celebrado en el James L. Knight Center de Miami, la ex *Acapulco Shore* deslumbró con un vestido brillante de color negro que destacaba por una inmensa cruz en la parte frontal. Sin embargo, su estilismo llamó aún más la atención gracias a su nuevo look en el cabello.

Varias reacciones en redes sociales no se hicieron esperar: “Ella es única”, “Todo que ver”, “Con todo menos con miedo, reina, explota las redes”, “Mane, la reina por siempre”, fueron algunos de los mensajes que le dejaron sus seguidores.

En una entrevista con Telemundo, Manelyk habló sobre lo importante que es para ella reinventarse constantemente. “Soy la chica del contenido, la chica de propuesta, siempre proponiendo con mis outfits, no le temo a nada. Siento que eso es importante porque cada vez que voy a una alfombra o un proyecto diferente, entro con una personalidad y un outfit diferente”, explicó.

Este evento le sirvió para reflejar su personalidad única a la hora de vestir y presentar su imagen pública.

Poco antes de asistir al evento, la ‘chica reality’ se refirió a su relación con el ganador de *La Casa de los Famosos All-Stars*, Caramelo. Aclaró que no tuvieron una relación debido al poco tiempo que compartieron y descartó cualquier posibilidad de reconciliación: “Yo chancla que tiro, no la vuelvo a recoger”.

Con estas palabras, Manelyk dejó claro que prefiere enfocarse en su crecimiento personal y profesional, sin mirar atrás.

What Made Rudy Sarzo Feel Accepted in Ozzy Osbourne’s Band

Even after securing the gig, Rudy Sarzo still sought assurance that he would be truly accepted as the new bass player in Ozzy Osbourne’s band. Recently, Sarzo opened up about how Ozzy helped him feel more comfortable during that uncertain time on an episode of *The Magnificent Others* podcast, hosted by Billy Corgan of the Smashing Pumpkins.

### What Ozzy Said About Rudy During a Magazine Interview

With the help of former Quiet Riot bandmate Randy Rhoads, Sarzo found himself auditioning for Osbourne’s band in early 1981. The first step involved playing two songs with the band while Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne observed from the front of the stage. Afterward, the group asked Sarzo to play the same two songs again, but this time with Ozzy behind the mic.

“Ozzy turns to me and he says, ‘Hey, man, do you want the gig?’ And I said, yes,” Sarzo recalled during *The Magnificent Others*. “And my life went into Panavision color at that moment. It was like, ‘Wow, I’m in this world now.’”

Despite nailing the audition, Sarzo still wondered if he would truly fit in with the band. This sense of uncertainty was familiar to him, having escaped Cuba with his family to Florida in 1961 when he was just 10 years old.

However, it was an interview Ozzy did with *Circus* magazine that finally reassured Sarzo. The 74-year-old bassist explained that in the 1981 interview, Ozzy was asked who was in his band at the time. Ozzy referred to Sarzo as “Rudy from Cuba.”

“I open [the magazine], and I see ‘Rudy from Cuba,’ and I went, ‘Wow, he doesn’t mind that I am from Cuba,’” Sarzo said. “That is what confirmed it.”

### Ozzy and Sharon Kept Rudy From Sleeping on the Floor

Sarzo also revealed to Corgan that he was still sleeping on the floor after joining Osbourne’s band. That changed when Ozzy and Sharon stepped in. The couple invited Sarzo to move in with them so he would have a comfortable place to sleep.

Ozzy also offered Sarzo some of his own stage clothing.

“We were playing pool. He takes a look at me and he goes, ‘Man, you look like you need some rock and roll clothes,’” Sarzo recalled. Ozzy then left the room and returned with a suitcase full of clothing, which he dumped out in the middle of the pool table.

“He says, ‘Grab whatever you want.’ And I’m like, ‘Oh my god, that’s the jacket from that album cover of this magazine,’” Sarzo said. When he told Ozzy he couldn’t take the clothing, the Prince of Darkness insisted.

“Nobody did that for me before,” Sarzo reflected on Ozzy and Sharon’s hospitality.

How Swizz Beatz Is Taking Off With Surprising New Career Move

While Jon & Kate Plus 8 alum Kate Gosselin lamented that much of her savings went toward paying lawyers in her battle with ex-husband Jon Gosselin, evidence suggests she’s enjoyed her return to nursing.

“I am an RN, I work in PEDs home health care,” Kate detailed in an August 2025 TikTok. “I work with one family currently. The patients already know my name and some things about me, so before I come into their home, they know who I am. And I imagine they already know me.”

What she knows, though, is that helping others is quite fulfilling. “It’s actually been a really rewarding and fun job,” Kate continued. “To come in and relieve a family of their medically challenged child so that they can spend time with their other kids and do other things.”

For Drew Barrymore, a day of work has never been missed. Though her current gig helming *The Drew Barrymore Show* fills her days now, when the child star found herself emancipated from mom Jaid Barrymore at age 14, she scrambled to pay the bills.

Noting her friend worked at a coffee shop in the Valley, the actress shared in her 2015 memoir *Wildflower* that she had to find something closer to their rental because she didn’t have a driver’s license.

“It was the start of the 1990s, and coffeehouses were where everyone hung out,” she detailed of working at L.A. hot spot The Living Room. “People poured out onto the street every night.”

Unfortunately, she continued, “I wasn’t great at my job. I wasn’t really great at anything. I had only done two things: acted and had wild life experiences.”

She served up the tea on one tense experience in her book: “I could tell my boss, who had hired me on the novel idea of having a washed-up former child actor behind the counter, was patient with all my learning curves, but was also irritated with me,” she wrote, revealing how he walked in while she was doing the dishes and said, very sharply and exasperatedly, “Don’t use the abrasive side of the brush! All the pastry cases are getting scratched and foggy, and you can’t see what’s inside!”

**Lifeguard on Duty!**

When *Stranger Things*’ Noah Schnapp isn’t battling supernatural beings in the Upside Down, he spends his time saving others in another way.

In a 2022 interview with *Flaunt* magazine, the actor revealed he had a part-time job as a lifeguard at his local pool during the summer. “It’s kind of a ‘just for fun thing,’” he explained. “I’ve kind of grown up with a normal life and normal friends and stuff outside of *Stranger Things*, so it’s kind of kept me grounded.”

In the late ’90s and early ’00s, Erik von Detten captured the hearts of teens everywhere thanks to his roles in *Escape to Witch Mountain*, *Brink!*, and *The Princess Diaries*. But after his last acting credit in 2010, he shifted focus from Hollywood to other pursuits.

Finally, reflecting on a significant personal milestone, an aspiring nurse shared on Instagram in 2020, “Today is #WorldHealthDay. It is also the day I went from a volunteer, then a student nurse, and now an RN resident. I just hope to live up to all of the amazing healthcare providers on the front lines now as I get ready to join them.”

These diverse stories highlight how celebrities and former stars have embraced everyday roles—whether nursing, lifeguarding, or working behind a coffee counter—finding fulfillment and purpose beyond the spotlight.
