Unlike bullet vibrators and clitoral toys, these specialized toys are all about penetration &#8211; but they&#8217;re not the same as your average dildo. Perfect if you want something a little special.<\/p>\n<p>Keep reading to get the lowdown on these exciting toys and find some product recommendations.<\/p>\n<p>Are you ready? We are. <em>Let&#8217;s jump right in.<\/em><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"whatisathrustingvibrator?\"><strong>What is a thrusting vibrator?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>As their name suggests, thrusting vibrators are a type of vibrator that offers a thrusting motion. Forget moving the vibrator yourself! These handy toys move for you, allowing you to lay back and enjoy without the extra hand cramps.<\/p>\n<p>Thrusting vibrators can phallic-looking but aren&#8217;t always realistic. They often have a tapered end for easy insertion and a thicker base where the thrusting mechanism or batteries are stored. Some even have &#8220;rabbit&#8221; style vibrators attached for extra clitoral stimulation.<\/p>\n<p>These vibrators are typically used for penetration. However, you can also use vibrating ones to massage intimate areas to really turn the heat up.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why is a thrusting vibrator beneficial?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Wondering why you should buy a thrusting vibrator when you can simply *move* a standard vibrator yourself?<\/p>\n<p>Well, first of all, there&#8217;s something extra exciting about not having to do the work. Plus, a hands-free toy allows you to touch yourself elsewhere during <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vivastreet.co.uk\/blog\/solo-bdsm\/\">solo play<\/a>. Excellent if you want to explore your erogenous zones.<\/p>\n<p>But one of the core benefits of a thrusting vibrator is its accessibility. If you have limited hand mobility, arthritis, carpal tunnel, or general difficulty when <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vivastreet.co.uk\/blog\/cleaning-sex-toys\/\">using sex toys<\/a>, a thrusting vibrator gives you that sensual movement without needing extra effort.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Is a thrusting vibrator only for solo play?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Nope! While thrusting vibrators make solo play extra exciting, they&#8217;re not only for moments of personal bliss. They also make a great addition to foreplay with a partner (or two). From teasing your partner to watching them be penetrated, a thrusting vibrator is a great way to play with sensations and control when you&#8217;re with a lover.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s also a great way to change up your usual sex and foreplay routine. This way, you want to try out new positions, kinks, and toys to find undiscovered turn-ons. Better orgasms? Yes, please.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4638\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vivastreet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/what-is-a-thrusting-vibrator-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1080\" height=\"608\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vivastreet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/what-is-a-thrusting-vibrator-1.png 1080w, https:\/\/www.vivastreet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/what-is-a-thrusting-vibrator-1-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/www.vivastreet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/what-is-a-thrusting-vibrator-1-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.vivastreet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/what-is-a-thrusting-vibrator-1-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/www.vivastreet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/what-is-a-thrusting-vibrator-1-600x338.png 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"\u201dthrustingvibratorsvsvibratorsvsdildos&quot;\"><strong>Thrusting vibrators vs vibrators vs dildos<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>It&#8217;s important to weigh up your options before going all-in on a sex toy. So, here&#8217;s everything you need to know about thrusting vibrators and their alternative options.<\/p>\n<p>Thrusting vibrators and vibrators are similar, but the main difference is that a thrusting vibrator offers penetrative motion. In contrast, a vibrator only buzzes, and you must move it &#8211; if it&#8217;s a phallic-shaped object. Some vibrators aren&#8217;t even designed for insertion (e.g. oral-mimicking vibrators and mini vibes), whereas a thrusting vibrator is designed to be inserted.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, thrusting vibrators and dildos are both designed to be inserted. However, a dildo won&#8217;t vibrate or move &#8211; it&#8217;s a stationary object. A thrusting vibrator is better if you want a dildo with extra capabilities.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"\u201dwhattoconsiderbefore&quot;\"><strong>What to consider before trying a thrusting vibrator<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Picking a thrusting vibrator is an exciting step, but make sure you&#8217;ve considered all the options. <strong><em>Here are some key factors you should explore to ensure you pick the thruster that&#8217;s right for you:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. Shape and size<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>As you delve into the thruster world, the first thing you&#8217;ll notice is that they all look different. There&#8217;s no one-size-fits-all for these vibes and starting out with one you&#8217;re familiar with can be best. Also, if you&#8217;re new to insertion toys, you might want to pick a slimmer design before experimenting with girthy toys.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Purpose<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>While all thrusters are designed for insertion, some have different purposes. For example, you might want a thruster that doubles as a rabbit for some clitoral stimulation. You can find slimmer thrusters for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vivastreet.co.uk\/blog\/anal-training\/\">anal play<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>If you are interested in anal play, make sure your chosen thrusting vibrator is designed for anal insertion. Many aren&#8217;t, and it&#8217;s always better to be sure before diving in.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Power<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Like shapes and sizes, thrusters also have different power levels. The best way to gauge the thruster&#8217;s power is via reviews and product descriptions.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Different types of thrusting power include:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Rapid thrusts<\/li>\n<li>Deep thrusts<\/li>\n<li>Shallow thrusts<\/li>\n<li>Gentle thrusts<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Some models even give information on strokes per minute or thrust length. Great if you want the complete lowdown before you buy.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4. Noise<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Noise is always a big deal when shopping for vibrators, especially if you don&#8217;t live alone. Technically, vibrators that are 50 dB or lower are discreet vibes, but these also tend to be the more gentle vibes. So, if you want a more powerful one, remember that it might be a little louder.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5. Reviews<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Finally, take five minutes to read the product&#8217;s reviews. Sex toy reviews might make you blush, but they&#8217;re one of the best ways to get an accurate view of the vibrator. Enjoy!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4637\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vivastreet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/what-is-a-thrusting-vibrator-2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1080\" height=\"608\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vivastreet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/what-is-a-thrusting-vibrator-2.png 1080w, https:\/\/www.vivastreet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/what-is-a-thrusting-vibrator-2-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/www.vivastreet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/what-is-a-thrusting-vibrator-2-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.vivastreet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/what-is-a-thrusting-vibrator-2-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/www.vivastreet.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/what-is-a-thrusting-vibrator-2-600x338.png 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"\u201dpopularthrustingvibrators&quot;\"><strong>3 popular thrusting vibrators<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Thrusters are quickly becoming one of the most popular types of vibrators.
