Everyone has their go-to for something. A favorite artist, a preferred place to eat, a chosen side of the bed. We all have preferences and we have them for good reason. It’s obvious that the same should extend to your sex toys, right? You might have your one and only trusted vibe, or a few toys on deck to mix and match, or maybe you reach blindly into your nightstand for whatever’s fully charged. No shame in that game! The point is: we all play favorites. And the Pleasure Chest clientele definitely has its favorites. Read on for a list of our tried and true bestsellers from every category as well as insight from one of the brands whose toys always come in at #1: Vibratex.
1. Magic Wand Rechargeable, Plus & OG
Magic Wand Rechargeable |
Magic Wand Plus |
Original Magic Wand |
Our bestsellers of all time: the iconic Magic Wand trio from Vibratex! The Original Magic Wand has been around since the late 60s and is a plug-in wand with two settings--high and higher. The Plus is a much more recent addition to the line that is also a plug-in but features four vibration intensities and four patterns as well as an updated silicone head. The Rechargeable Magic Wand has all the settings of the Plus and can be used without being plugged in! There’s something for everyone in this wonderful family of wands and we love each of them so much that we even wrote an Ode to the Magic Wand. Our true bestie.
2. Njoy Pure Wand
The Pure Wand from Njoy is a pure beauty that makes our list for one important reason: pressure. This weighted stainless steel wand is excellent for applying direct pressure to the P or G spot to achieve that ever-elusive internal orgasm. Each side of the Pure Wand can be inserted for different variations of pressure and, because of its high-quality durable material, it can be used for hot and cold temperature play. If you’ve been wanting to explore G or P spot stimulation, this wand will do the trick.
3. Spareparts Joque
The harness that does it all. The Joque from Spareparts brings you the comfort of an underwear-style harness and the durability of an adjustable-style harness. The fabric is soft and stretchy and the ring will fit any dildo up to 2” wide. It can be adjusted in the waistband as well as in the straps that wrap around the thighs. It comes in an assortment of cute colors and even has little pockets on the inside to put bullet vibrators into!
4. b-Vibe Snug Plug
Snug as a plug! The Snug Plugs from b-Vibe have skyrocketed onto our top sellers list in just a handful of years for a few reasons. One: comfort. The iconic torpedo shape of this plug is designed specifically to sit comfortably inside for a longer amount of time than your usual tapered plug. Two: sensation These plugs are weighted and, as you move and play, you feel the weight shifting and bouncing around in all the right spots. Three: durability. Once these plugs are inserted they will not budge so you can go about your pleasure as you please.
5. VixSkin Mustang
VixSkin is known for having the most realistic dildos on the market. Their silicone is a unique blend that combines a hard inner core with a life-like squishiness on the outside that moves like real skin! The authenticity can also be seen in the convincing ridges that grace the outside of the dildos. No characteristic went unchecked when creating these products; VixSkin’s attention to the tiniest of details validates why you can trust them to provide you with a realistic and high-quality experience.
6. Sportsheets Under the Bed Restraint System
No headboard? No problem! Sportsheets’ Under the Bed Restraint System is an accessible BDSM/bondage play kit that’s great for beginners and experts alike. It’s super versatile and can fit nearly any size bed. Simply slip it beneath the mattress and pull the cuffs over on each side. You can use the cuffs separately and link them together or use the whole kit in one go. It’s also easy to travel with so you can take your bondage on the go. The versatility, accessibility and easiness of this kit is why it makes our list! (The original system is pictured on the left and the Special Edition is pictured on the right.)
7. Sutil Water Based Lube
Luxury in a lube. We love Sutil because they use natural plant sourced eco-certified ingredients in all of their products and their formulas are long-lasting and high-quality. As much as we love a more natural alternative to ingredients like glycerin (which is in a lot of lubes and can sometimes cause irritation) that doesn’t always mean the lube will stand up to friction. Fortunately, that is not the case with Sutil! A little goes a long way. Their water-based formulas are our fave and they’re compatible with any toy you choose to pair them with.

8. Tenga Egg Sleeve
Tenga’s Egg Sleeve has become one of our bestselling stroker toys over the years. They’re inexpensive, versatile and incredibly stretchy. Each egg has a different texture on the inside as well as a sample of compatible lube to go with it. They can easily be used solo or to spice up a hand-job to add a little bit of… spice. These sleeves are a great first choice if you’re looking to try out a stroker but you’re not sure what kind to choose. The only question you need to ask yourself is: how do you like your eggs?
9. Aneros Helix Syn Trident
From the prostate pros themselves, the Aneros Helix Syn Trident is the most anatomically on-point prostate stimulator we offer. This plug is designed to move on its own once inserted. The shape of the base allows it to self-pivot and hit four erogenous zones all at the same time. Talk about sensory overload! Our friends at Aneros are masters in anatomy, not only when it comes to the shapes of their toys but also the materials. Put your prostate in the hands of the experts; you won’t be disappointed!
10. Fun Factory ShareVibe
Our bestsellers list would be pointless without a shoutout to Fun Factory! Fun Factory is an excellent company that puts a lot of thought, care, trial and error into the making of their toys. Their motors are powerful and their silicone is of the highest quality. Their toys also last a long time (they have a 2-year warranty) both in charge-time and longevity. The ShareVibe in particular is our most popular share-style dildo. The vibration from the bullet travels effortlessly through the silicone to reach both the giver and the receiver. It’s curved in all the right angles to stay in place and get the job done!
The Legacy of Vibratex at the Pleasure Chest
Chances are, even if you’ve never heard of the legendary Magic Wand, you’re well aware of at least one Vibratex product. Their rotating and vibrating dual-stimulation Rabbit Habit was notoriously featured on Sex and the City which sent vibrator popularity through the roof.

One could argue the products that come from Vibratex’s unique and classic line helped normalize owning sex toys and sent the toy industry on a race to bring more and more toys into the homes of the masses. Pictured below are three Vibratex toys that utilize their most well-known feature that gained tons of traction after its cameo on HBO: rotation!
Vibratex Rabbit Habit Original Deluxe |
Vibratex Sugar Pop |
Vibratex Dahlia |
The dual-stimulation toys above each house rotating beads just below the surface that mimic a sort of rimming sensation to arouse the opening. With these toys you get internal stimulation paired with external stimulation everywhere--not just on the clitoris. Vibratex continues to make these classic crowd favorites as well as add new toys to their collection every year. Read on to learn about the journey of the Magic Wand, what Vibratex is up to now and how they’ve navigated the toy world for more than 30 years!
What has changed about Vibratex over the years?
As a proper authority in the world of pleasure products, Vibratex has taken its turn as an innovative manufacturer and now serves as the source of the iconic Magic Wand brand. While most Magic Wand customers may not recognize the Vibratex name, they surely know the product categories we originated – including dual-stimulation toys now commonly known as “rabbit” vibes. Fun fact – they got that nickname because of our original product name – the Rabbit Pearl.
What is something you want folks to know before choosing their first toy?
It’s an exciting time to be a first-time toy buyer right now. With so many options, styles, price ranges, there is something for everyone. My best advice is to recognize that it may take time to figure out what works for you. We think the Magic Wand is an excellent choice for first-time users because its simplicity, size, and power make it remarkably versatile. Some users enjoy the rumbly vibrations when used indirectly – or even over their clothes! Plus, you get the confidence of buying a brand that millions of people have trusted for more than fifty years!
What is something more experienced folks might not think about when choosing a toy?
Sometimes, simplicity is the best option. Although some AMAZING toys feature beneficial apps and controls or programmable functions, there’s something to be said for having something simple that just works.
What’s in the future for the Magic Wand?
We intend to keep evolving the Magic Wand brand and welcoming new users to the family.
What do you think is missing in the toy world that the Magic Wand brings to the table?
Community. When you own a Magic Wand, you’ll immediately understand why so many people love it. Just check out the fan art and unsolicited tributes to the brand. I mean, some people love it so much, they get it TATTOOED!
Why is the Magic Wand a “desert island” toy?
Well, presuming there’s power to plug it in to use or charge, Magic Wand tends to be the “sure thing” for most users. And, even if you don’t have power, maybe something of its size and shape would make a pretty helpful survival tool! But please – don’t try using one to crack open coconuts at home.
Thank you, Vibratex! And thank you for creating a product that has truly stood the test of time as one of the most versatile and powerful toys out there. If you'd like to keep up with Vibratex, you can check them out here.
