Clit suckers are a fantastic option for women looking for a toy that directly stimulates the clit without the deadening effect of a vibrator.
If you’re looking for that, and many women are, a clit sucking vibrator is one of the best choices you can make for your pleasure future.
Suckers use an air pulse – usually generated by a sonic pulse generator – that stimulates the entire clitoris, not just the glans.
This is the same general principle that your average loudspeaker works under as well.
If you’ve ever noticed the way your body tingles down to your bones when you’re standing next to the speakers at a show, you’re in the right ballpark for this one.
Lovense Tenera: The Ultimate Clit Sucker? Yup!
Lovense doesn’t need an introduction as one of the most definitive sex toy manufacturers of our time.
With sleek, body-friendly silicone wrapping electronics and top-quality sex toy hardware including one of the most rock-solid and dependable Bluetooth connections ever developed, Lovense toys are the top of the class for virtually every type of sex toy you can think of.
Everything from thrusting dildos to g-spot vibrators for women have been designed, as well as several kinds of men’s toys.
Lovense steps into the clit sucker market with Tenera, their first toy in this class.
As you would expect, the Lovense Tenera is a masterpiece of design, with a sleek, sexy curve that is perfectly ergonomic, which you’d also expect from Lovense.
The Lovense app makes Bluetooth connectivity a matter of plug-and-play, making the toy particularly easy to use either by yourself or with another, whether together at home or long-distance.
If there are any downsides to Lovense Tenera, it’s not the strongest sucker on the market, or the cheapest.
If you have questions about the longevity of your desire to play with a clit sucker, you will want to go with a less expensive device.
If your questions are more about how strong your toy can get, you’ll want to go with a more powerful one.
But if you’re like most women who are interested in a clit sucker, Lovense Tenera is going to be one of your go-to options.
Pros
- Lovense’s quality is top-notch.
- Backed by one of the best warranties on the market.
- Best for long-distance play.
- Super free to customize patterns.
Cons
- Can be a little daunting for first-time users.
- Not the most powerful clit-sucker on the market
Lelo Sila Cruise
Calling itself a “sonic clitoral massager,” Lelo Sila Cruise is one of the clit sucker options from legendary Lelo, one of the leading names in luxury sex toys.
Featuring Lelo’s patented triple-infinity symbol control system, Sila Cruise eschews patterns and other gimmicks in favor of dialable power and a wide mouth – and Sila Cruise’s wide mouth makes it a great option for women and transmasculine users alike, giving a uniquely spread-out vibration pattern that differs from many of the other options around.
Wrapping the whole clitoris in pleasure is a bold move, with an elegant, ultra-soft silicone surface that makes it feel unique.
It’s also completely waterproof and produces very little noise, making it an easy choice for travel play, and playing in a hotel bathroom is trivial with this toy, with its fully sealing barrel plug outlet.
Another unique mode for travel play is lock mode, which will prevent it from turning on when it’s sitting in the bottom of your carry-on bag, avoiding both an embarrassing predicament and a pointless waste of your precious battery charge.
The sides are chromed plastic, which can be a bit of a downside because if (which is really when) the chrome starts wearing or flaking away, it can make the sides of the toy feel less comfortable to hold.
Overall, Sila Cruise is a great design for both beginners and experts in the sucker field.
However, it is a bit expensive for a beginner toy, so that may be a point for the buyer to beware of.
Pros
- Unique sonic design gives an amazing vibrational feeling.
- Intense sonic wave stimulation is more of a hybrid between traditional vibrators and clit suckers.
- Travel mode and waterproof design make a perfect travel companion.
Cons
- A little spendy.
- Plastic sides can feel less pleasant than the silicone body. An all-silicone design probably would have suited this toy better.
Lelo Enigma Cruise
Enigma is one of Lelo’s most artistic sex toys.
It wouldn’t look too far out of place on the shelf if you were of a type to buy sex toys for display as much as for use, and the curved prong brings the best of both a g-spot vibrator and a clit-sucker to the party.
The sonic-wave clitoral massager uses the same basic functionality as the Sila, but the cool, curvy design sets it worlds apart.
Other reviewers have said it looks almost alien, and they’re not far wrong – the curve is sexy and artistic, and makes you wish there was a museum just for sex toys out there because this belongs in pride of place.
Beyond its out-of-this-world looks (see what I did there?), the Enigma Cruise is just a great combination of different sensations for its user, combining a top-tier vibrator for internal pleasure with a sonic-wave clit sucker for external use and that all-important clitoral stimulation.
If you’re greedy, Enigma Cruise is going to fill all of the holes in your needs and leave you feeling that someone really understands your wants.
Suction toys are the future, but g-spot vibrators are a huge part of the now, and Enigma’s nice, flexible neck means you can also leave its appendage outside of you if you’re not ready for penetration tonight.
If we’re going to do this one on any deficiencies, it’s the same as the Sila Cruise.
That iridescent plastic belly, as beautiful as it is, is made of plastic, and plastic can lose pretty much any coating that’s ever placed on it because, shocker, made of oil.
If anything, the Enigma Cruise is a little bit quieter than its less penetrative cousin, which helps it feel a little more discreet despite its melted-alien-spaceship vibe.
It’s definitely worth the price tag (which is a bit on the spendy side for a sex toy, even a super-deluxe design orgasm from Lelo).
Pros
- Dual stimulation is proof positive that God is a woman.
- Design student’s orgasm can be your orgasm.
- Penetrating head is flexible enough to be pushed out of the way if you’re not in the mood.
Cons
- Be a little cautious with that plastic panel on the belly.
- One of the most expensive clit sucker toys out there.
Lelo Sona 2 Cruise
The third of our three options from Lelo being profiled, the Sona 2 Cruise is the well-made, sturdy, and surprisingly weighty third option in Lelo’s family of sonic-technology clitoral vibrators, with a unique backward curve that separates it both from the turbine-shaped Sila and the alien orgasm tentacle that is the dual-stimulating Enigma Cruise.
Sona 2 occupies a comforting middle ground in both capability and price and has some benefits that are unique all to itself.
The Sona 2 Cruise’s head is about the same size as the Enigma Cruise’s, which is to say it’s about the same size as most of the other toys we’re profiling in this list.
With that mid-sized head and its palm-sized erogenous ergonomics, it’s a great option for just keeping around your bedside.
The curve makes it artistic without being pretentious, as well, giving you a toy that fits surprisingly well in your palm, making it easy to keep pressed into your clitoral zone.
With Lelo’s award-winning Cruise Control technology, the Sona 2 Cruise avoids a common problem with sex toys, that being losing power when they’re pressed hard into you.
The chrome surface has the same concerns as the other Lelo toys with a chromed surface, perhaps a little more so because its size is bigger proportionally to the size of the toy.
Its strength and sensational characteristics, however, more than make up for this minor cause for concern.
Pros
- Another great sonic toy from Lelo.
- Sonic wave vibrations combine the best characteristics of vibrators and clit sucking.
- Nice weight for its size makes it an easy toy to maneuver.
- Concave curve on the back side makes it sit nicely in the hand while pressing it into yourself.
- Cruise control technology keeps it active and powerful for the duration of play.
Cons
- Chrome part can draw smudges, may be cause for durability concern.
We-Vibe Melt
The sleek curve of the We-Vibe Melt toy gives it a pretty and sleek look, and its range of colors make this an artistic choice.
The smart toy never touches the clitoris, and its slim shape makes it an ideal option for partner play, with a little bulk put between two bodies.
We-Vibe’s shape, in addition to keeping the parts between the bodies to a minimum, also makes it more manipulable for a partner.
We-Vibe’s app looks a good deal like competitor Lovense, but it also has its problems.
It’s a lot more limited, and Lovense’s app is more appreciated by people who are more able to adapt patterns using its finger trace programming system.
The best options for We-Vibe are onboard control and solo, and its Bluetooth controls are neither as refined nor as consistent as Lovense’s.
We-Vibe is a great option, but it’s definitely more of an in-person and solo toy versus its competitor’s internet-enabled design.
Pros
- Sleek and pretty with lots of refinement and artistic looks
- Great for in-person partnered play.
- The app is lovely and works fine.
Cons
- Bluetooth is less reliable than Lovense’s.
- Better for in-person and solo play than long-distance.
Satisfyer Pro 2 Generation 2
Satisfyer was the second toy on the market of this type, and the Pro 2 Next Generation, sometimes called Pro 2 Generation 2, shows great refinements.
Unlike its close competitor, the Womanizer Pro40, the Satisfyer Pro 2 Next Generation has a slightly less refined look, with a bulbous body, but its rocker switch is on the back, making it a little easier to manipulate than the Womanizer Pro40’s.
The sucker is nice and powerful, and the device is fully waterproof, making it great for playing in the shower.
Satisfyer Pro is difficult to be discreet with, making it an attractive toy for shower use, but if noise is not a problem for you, you’re likely to not care about this.
The Satisfyer Pro is up there with Womanizer Pro40 as one of the two best beginner toys in the segment.
We love it and we think it’s just a great choice.
Pros
- Basic and simple, it’s great for a beginner toy user.
- Back-mounted controls make it slightly easier to use than competing Womanizer Pro40.
- Powerful and simple, with great orgasms provided.
Cons
- A little noisy
Womanizer Premium 2 puts a Premium Touch on Advanced Pleasure
Advertising first-class orgasms, Womanizer Premium is a beautiful, luxurious toy wrapped in a sleek silicone body and a luxurious design that helps you get your money’s worth of pleasure.
It differs from the Pro40 in that while the basic design is very to the point, Premium 2 lives up to its name with a sleek, artistic design, metallic accents without having the downside of the vast puddles of chromed plastic seen on Lelo’s toys, and good battery life for their size.
Womanizer Premium 2 is the top level of Womanizer’s range, next to the Starlet 3 and Classic 2 models, and all use the same technology: An air pressure wave device that generates sonic-like pulses of air over your clit in a high-hertz pattern.
There’s none of the on-off pulsing that you see in lower-end vibrators, just pure, dialable power.
In an additional benefit for its design, the Premium 2 has small, medium, and large-sized stimulators.
The Premium 2 also has a magnetic charger, which makes it easier to waterproof, and indeed, its waterproofing is exceptional in the category.
Pros
- Premium design.
- Great onboard controls, and a decent app.
- Magnetic charging makes the toy truly waterproof.
- Different head sizes give different sensations.
Cons
- Expensive, making this a truly premium toy in more senses than one.
- Controls require a fair bit of manual dexterity to handle.
Womanizer Pro40: Basic, Sturdy Pleasure
Womanizer has clit suckers in every price tier of these toys, and the Pro40 is a great option to enter into these toys with, a device that can introduce you to the basic principles of a clit sucker.
Clear and distinct power, plus, and minus buttons, and a sleek, simple plastic casing mean that these devices are easy to handle without putting eyes on them.
With that advantage on the table for you, you’re going to be able to get used to these toys.
Like most clit sucker toys, the Pro40 looks a little bit like a water pick, with tasteful, subtly curved lines and a nozzle at a right angle to the rest of the body.
The design is basic, but from the company that introduced the clit sucker to the market, Womanizer Pro40 is a great introduction for anyone to this category of toys.
When you have a Womanizer Pro40, you know what you’re getting, and you know how it’s going to help you get off.
It doesn’t have an app and it doesn’t have a Bluetooth connection. It’s just a basic, sturdy sex toy for individual play, and sometimes that’s all you need.
Pros
- Great, budget designed clit sucker
- Does exactly what its category of toys says and does it well.
- Suction is strong.
- Pulse control is simple with standard plus-and-minus controls.
Cons
- Very basic, and solo focused only.
- If you need a toy for long-distance play, this isn’t it.
Svakom Pulse Union Wins on Great Features, Killer App
The Svakom Pulse Union is a shockingly great toy in the middle of the range for clit suckers.
Pulse Union has all the features you’d expect of a toy of this kind, and quite a few that go above and beyond the baseline.
If you’re looking for a toy with some amazing functions, this is it.
It has a sleek, soft silicone skin, remote app control, and strong but gentle suction that reminds your body of your lover’s touch.
If you’re new to suckers, Pulse Union is a great option.
Many toys in this price range have a barely passable app that doesn’t really do anything other than cycle through the pulse patterns that the toy has onboard, but the Svakom app includes good Bluetooth connectivity and a decent pattern editor.
The Svakom Pulse Union has a few special tricks in its corner.
Among others, it has a larger than average cup size, making it a great option for transmasculine people looking for a larger sucker that can accommodate a clit that’s undergone growth under testosterone.
With its combination of interactive features normally seen in much more expensive toys, a deep, accommodating cup, and sleek, sexy design with touches of luxury seen in many much more expensive toys, Svakom Pulse Union is not an entry-level device; it’s a high-end sex toy with an affordable price tag.
Pros
- Premium features, bargain price tag.
- App functionality is one of the best on the market.
- Magnetic chargers are a luxury feature for this price point and permit true waterproof use.
Cons
- If you want aggressive suction, this one isn’t for you.
Buyer’s Guide to Clit-Sucker Toys
The basic clit sucker toy uses a diaphragm to handle pressure transfer.
This is a huge advantage for people with joint issues like arthritis or carpal tunnel syndrome, who are going to have problems with vibrators.
If you’re looking for a more sensitive, more self-responsible toy, the clit-sucker may be the toy for you to give your best shot at.
When you’re looking at a toy in this category, your main criteria are going to be pulse strength, pulses per minute and ergonomic design.
Fortunately, all the toys on our list deliver.
The best overall toy in the category is, in most ways, the Lovense Tenera.
In addition to having the same level of premium features that makes all of Lovense’s toys be held in such high regard, the Tenera also has a comparable level of fit and finish to Womanizer’s top level Premium 2, despite Tenera being Lovense’s first attempt at these toys.
It really does seem that their experience of general toys translated beautifully to this new category.
Womanizer has some of the best experience in the segment and both their Premium 2 and Pro40 are great options for the segment.
If you’re looking for a manufacturer with the most experience for clit suckers, Womanizer is your safest choice, and they have toys in every segment.
Lelo are experts in premium, luxurious sex toys, and their three toys represented here are all fantastic options.
I have reservations, which I’ve communicated, about the amount of chromed plastic represented on Lelo’s toys but really ultimately that’s a very marginal concern.
Their toys are legendary for both design and function, and especially the Enigma is both beautiful and functional, one of the few sex toys that you should feel comfortable about displaying, because its design is genuinely fantastic and deserves to be admired in contexts outside of the pleasure they can bring.
Lelo’s Enigma is also fantastic for people who want additional internal stimulation for a more full and complete orgasm. If you’re in that group, go for Lelo Enigma.
Verdict
Overall, you really cannot go wrong with a clit-sucker toy.
They are fantastically pleasurable, simple, and well-designed, and even the most basic among them still looks pretty amazing and feels great in hand.
My personal recommendation for these toys is to focus on the ones with solo-only functionality. The clit sucker is really an expression of self-love.
With any toy that you want to use in the clit sucker category, make sure that it has good self-controllability without the presence of its app, because that’s how you’re going to be using it most of the time.
