Thrusting Saddle or Vibrating Sex Machine: How To Choose the Right One for You!
Sex machines are revolutionising the way people experience pleasure, offering hands-free thrills that elevate both solo and partnered play! With so many choices out there, it can be tricky to decide between a thrusting saddle machine or a vibrating sex machine. Let’s dive into what sets these two apart, highlighting their unique features and benefits and which one might be the perfect fit for you and your bedroom!
Thrusting Saddle Machines: Simulating Realistic Thrusts
Thrusting saddle machines are designed to mimic the natural motions of penetrative sex as you straddle them and sit on top while the machine’s attachment (like a dildo of some kind) thrusts back and forth to move in and out of you. These machines closely mimic the sensation of a real partner’s thrusting, allowing you to sit back and enjoy the ride without tiring out. The hands-free design makes it easier to control the depth and rhythm of each thrust via the machine’s control buttons or remote, creating a custom pleasure experience that’s perfect for longer, sustained sessions.
Thrusting Sex Machines: Realistic Penetration & Stimulation
For those who crave a more lifelike, penetrative experience in more sex positions that don’t necessarily involve sitting on top like a saddle, a standard thrusting sex machine is the way to go! These usually consist of a dildo that’s attached to a long, telescopic rod that pistons back and forth to simulate strokes at whatever speed and depth you like, depending on how you adjust the rod’s settings. Alternatively, if the attachment is a masturbator, it can feel like you're penetrating a partner who is taking care of all the work while riding or grinding against you! Either way, the realistic, hands-free thrusting allows you to fully immerse yourself in the experience, giving you the freedom to focus on sensation and supporting yourself if needed.
With adjustable speed and thrust depth, sex machines like those available at Sexyland allow you to finetune the intensity of your experience, giving you full control over your pleasure!
Are sex machines safe to use, and what precautions should I take?
Yes, sex machines are safe when used correctly. Ensure the machine is on a flat, firm surface and make use of any stabilising features the machine has, suction as suction cup feet. Use plenty of lubricant on the insertable attachment and start with lower settings as you can always work your way up later once you’re accustomed to the machine’s movements and power. Clean the machine and attachments regularly and stop if any discomfort occurs.
Exploring Vibrating Sex Machines: Intense Vibration for Enhanced Pleasure
If deep, rumbling vibrations are more your style, a vibrating sex machine offers a whole different kind of thrill compared to a thrusting one. These machines are designed to deliver powerful external stimulation that resonates throughout your body and can be compatible with vibration-friendly attachments that target specific areas like the clitoris, penis, or anus. Vibrating sex machines are ideal for users who love exploring different vibration patterns and sensations. They provide versatility, allowing you to enjoy pulsating, buzzing pleasure that’s perfect for external stimulation or adding variety to your usual play.
Choosing Based on Sensation Preferences: Thrusts vs. Vibrations
When deciding between a thrusting or vibrating machine, consider your preferred type of stimulation:
- Thrusting sex machines are ideal for users seeking a hands-free, penetrative experience. Thrusting machines offer rhythmic, realistic movements that mimic partnered sex.
- Vibrating sex machines are perfect for those who love deep, intense vibrations rumbling across their genitals. Vibrating machines provide versatility and are great for exploring external pleasure.
If you’re still undecided, why not try both? Each offers a unique way to explore your desires, and alternating between the two can provide variety in your play!
Customisable Features: Adjusting Speeds, Angles & Intensity Levels
Modern sex machines, whether thrusting or vibrating, offer various adjustable settings like the angle of the thrusting component, interchangeable attachments, and stroke depth/speed to ensure a tailored experience that’s just right for you and your unique body. Thrusting machines allow you to control depth and speed, while vibrating machines often feature different vibration modes and strengths to suit your mood. You can also find remote-controllable options for both types of machines so you or a partner can easily adjust the intensity mid-session for added excitement!
Considering Size and Design: Compactness & Storage
Another factor to consider is the size and storage requirements of your chosen machine.
- Thrusting Sex Machines — these tend to be larger and more robust, often needing dedicated space in your room or a storage closet (unless you’re willing to disassemble and reassemble them between play sessions). These are built for stability and durability, and are designed to handle deeper, more sustained thrusting over long periods of time.
If you’re after a portable thrusting sex machine, some of Sexyland’s bestsellers have been the Handbag Sex Machines, which come in a variety of stylish designs and pack up neatly into a handbag sized package that’s sleek and discreet, whether it’s in storage or slung over your arm in public!
-
Vibrating Sex Machines — these are usually more compact and easier to store, making them ideal if you have limited space or prefer a more portable option.
Sexyland are big fans of one of our newest arrivals, the Zalo Flora Smart Hands-Free Vibrating & Warming Massage Pad, which is a compact vibrating sex machine that can seriously do it all! It targets the clitoris and external anal area with vibrating pads while the vibrating dildo portion also vibrates and warms up to 42°C for soothing, toasty sensations inside you. The entire base is a suction cup so you can stick it against walls, floors, and other firm surfaces for hands-free play in all kinds of positions, and controlling it is a cinch from anywhere in the world thanks to the smartphone app compatibility!
Otherwise, for a non-penetrative option, the Lust Remote Control Vibrating Dual Rider Grind-On Massager is also a top choice. The raised mounds position the vibrations against the front of the vulva and the exterior anal area for dual stimulation at two of your most sensitive erogenous zones!
User-Friendly Controls: Ease of Use & Accessibility
Both thrusting and vibrating machines are designed with ease of use in mind. Look for models with simple controls, easy-to-access buttons, or remote options to keep things running smoothly during play. Some machines even feature programmable settings, letting you find and save your favourite modes for future use!
Maintenance and Care Tips: Cleaning & Longevity
Proper care is key to extending the life of your sex machine. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning and maintenance. Removable attachments should be cleaned thoroughly after each use with warm water and a mild toy cleaner to ensure hygiene across all your play sessions.
Keep your machine stored in a cool, dry place to avoid damaging any mechanical parts, and if you need to disassemble it between uses, keep all the parts together. This will ensure your toy is easy to set up and ready to go whenever the mood next strikes.
The Final Call: Which Machine is Right for You?
Choosing between a thrusting saddle machine and a vibrating sex machine ultimately comes down to your personal preference. If you’re after realistic, hands-free penetration that mimics the motions of partnered sex, a thrusting saddle machine might be the perfect fit. On the other hand, if you crave intense, all-over vibrations that can target multiple pleasure zones, a vibrating sex machine offers a versatile and powerful experience.
Both options deliver unique sensations and can be tailored to meet your specific desires with customisable features like speed and intensity. No matter which machine you choose, both are designed to enhance your pleasure and elevate your intimate experiences.
