The Hottest Air Suction Toys for the Clit and Beyond
What is an air suction toy?
Unlike vibrators, which use (you guessed it) vibration as the main source of stimulation, air suction toys use the pulsation and pressure of air waves to create the sensations that these toys have become completely iconic for.
Many who have used these toys describe the sensation akin to oral sex – like someone is sucking at the clit while flicking their tongue across it. Yes, please.
How do I use a suction toy?
Many air pleasure and suction toys don’t actually touch the clitoris directly to stimulate it, even though they still offer that pinpoint sensation. They are shaped in a way that the opening of the toy (where you can feel the air stimulation) is meant to encircle the head of the clit - it’s the trapped air surrounding the clit that is moving and pulsating across it that is giving all of that sensation, rather than through direct contact like a vibrator.
While you can certainly move the toy as you go, hovering it over the body or rocking it to create even more stimulation, these toys can be used as simply as lubing up the body, getting the toy in position, and letting that air pulsation do the rest of the work for you.
Not just for clits!
Though many are designed specifically with clitoral pleasure in mind, clits aren’t the only place that can benefit from this kind of targeted sensation. Using an air stimulation toy over the nipples can feel fantastic as well, offering a similar kind of stimulation that many can enjoy with a mouth or nipple sucker – but leveled up with the intensity of a motor.
Air stimulation toys can feel great on a penis as well! Use the toy to tickle the scrotal skin, or put the opening of the toy against the frenulum (that’s a hot-spot on the underside of the penis where the head meets the shaft). There’s even toys that use similar tech in a way that’s designed for the penis - I’ll recommend that below as well.
Educator picks for air suction pleasure toys:
The One Rose Clitoral Stimulator
Arguably the most well-known air suction toy (and for good reason!) the Rose combines powerful suction and pulsation to create a toy that’s ideal for any level of toy enthusiast. With 3 speeds and 7 patterns, this smooth silicone rose provides a bouquet of sensations to explore. Plus, the adorably discreet design is cute enough to leave out on your nightstand - we’re taking no shame with our pleasure in 2024, anyway.
Womanizer Blend
Have your cake and eat it too - and by that I mean give yourself an incredible blended O with this dual-stim rabbit-style vibrator that’s designed to combine G-spot and clitoral stimulation for a serious double down on sensation. With separate motors so you can independently control the vibration of the curved G-spot arm and the Air Pleasure technology of the clitoral suction, you can really customize your play to find your perfect blend.
Namii Clitoral Suction Stimulator and Vibrator
Another 2-in-1, the Namii from Biird (a woman-owned brand, btw!) uses a totally unique shape to contour this clitoral suction toy to the body in a way that helps to stimulate the entire vulva. Coated in ultra-soft silicone, the Namii is perfect for grinding against to experience the combination of vibration and texture alongside the suction with settings varying from feather-light kisses to powerful pulsations - or you can use the features separately if you wanna change things up. A bonus: the charging dock doubles as a mood light. Very demure, very cutesy.
Body Kisses Suction Vibrator
Not all bits are the same, and the Body Kisses Suction Vibrator by Gender X not only recognizes that, it celebrates it. Body Kisses boasts an extra-wide flexible opening to fit a variety of sizes (this design is great for folks with bottom growth or a larger clit) and 7 speeds of sucking sensation, or you can ride the textured silicone on the outside as a great grinding vibe with 7 additional settings of vibration to play with.
Beyond the clit
Womanizer OG
Womanizer OG takes the question of “if air toys feel great on external hot spots, why not on internal hot spots, too?” and answers it with a gorgeous vibe that is quite literally like nothing else on the market. The OG uses the Pleasure Air tech that Womanizer is iconic for and places it at the tip of a flexible curved vibe to target the G-spot with air pulsation, while a vibrating motor towards the center of the vibe works to stimulate the nerve-rich vaginal opening for a combination of sensations that has the OG leaving us saying OMG.
Arcwave Ion Penis Stimulator
Another innovation from the brand that pioneered the air suction genre, the Arcwave Ion takes Womanizer’s patented Pleasure Air tech and combines it with a super-soft textured stroker to focus in on the under-rated pleasure hot-spot of the frenulum (a nerve-dense area right under the head of the penis). You can use Arcwave like any hand-held stroker and thrust through the ridged sleeve or rest your shaft against the air pulsation opening and let the sensations do the work for you.
