Why Should You Trust Us

Tim Larson has been testing sex toys professionally since 2016, always making sure to try things himself for better judgment. Over the years, he’s explored just about every type of toy out there—but automatic models have earned a special place in his heart.

This article took 135 hours to put together. From hands-on testing by Tim and his colleague Shane Davis to digging through sex toy forums and user reviews, Tim left no stone unturned. With all that research behind us, here are the 10 best masturbation toys of the year:

How We Picked the Products

This article took two months to complete, with the bulk of the time used to test more than 50 automated masturbators. Some devices we didn’t include this year were Cobra Libre II and Arcwave Ion because we felt there were better devices available now. Before the review, I defined well-defined quantitative metrics that we could measure on a scale from 0 to 100. These factors included the following:

• Design: The design really mattered because it had a big impact on how the toy felt and worked. We focused on strokers that were built to make things easier, more comfortable, and more enjoyable during use.
• Size: The size affects handling and decides what sex toy suits specific users. As always, we measured the length, girth, and usable length to help you compare different strokers before deciding on the one to buy.
• Settings: The number of vibration/stroking settings shapes a sex toy’s flexibility. It also makes them ideal for different users, experienced or new to self-pleasuring.
• Special Features: Masturbators like the Lovense Calor offer a unique experience with the warming feature. We prioritized such sex toys with more than the standard vibrations.
• Realism: People have different tastes and preferences, and the degree of realism is one feature that elicits mixed reactions. We added products with realistic and non-realistic designs, so everyone had something to consider.
• Build Quality: Quality over quantity! Throughout the review, I highlighted the importance of only going with high-quality and well-made automatic masturbators made of latex-free and non-porous materials.
• Rechargeability: A rechargeable sex toy is as good as its battery life. Beyond ensuring we prioritize USB-rechargeable models, we only picked those with enough battery life to last a few self-pleasuring sessions.
• Bells and Whistles: Every sex toy has a unique feature setting it apart from the competition. We paid attention to these bells and whistles, including heating capabilities, interactive content, voice control, a flexible design for couples’ play, and wireless remote control.

During testing, we rated each test criterion on a percentage scale from 0% (Worst) to 100% (Best). We then calculated the overall score using different weighted metrics depending on the importance of the test criteria. Half the total rating comes from Design (25%) and Size (25%). After that comes Settings (10%), Special Features (10%), Realism (10%), Build Quality (10%), Rechargeability (5%), and Bells & Whistles (5%).

After testing, I pulled everything together using comparison charts to sort and review the results. My teammates helped me decide the winners, especially for categories where a second opinion mattered. After more than a month of hands-on testing and 25 hours of discussion, we’re confident these are the best automatic male masturbators this year.

1. Kiiroo Keon: Our Overall Test Winner!

Why we love Kiiroo Keon:

Among the automatic male masturbators we reviewed, Kiiroo Keon performed the best. We loved most of its attributes, but its wide range of stimulations stood out. Whether you want a quick wank or an extended session of self-pleasuring, both the manual thrusting and interactive modes made it easy to explore the best Kiiroo Keon had to offer.

Kiiroo Keon’s compatibility with a dedicated mobile app was another highlight of the review. The Real Feel application (screenshots in the image below) added more possibilities to the automated thruster, making it ideal for singles and couples. Notably, pairing the app and masturbator was much easier than most of the other models we tested, with easy-to-follow prompts.

The reviewers highlighted the impressive 2D and 3D content compatibility that opened the user’s world to new possibilities. Besides elevating your everyday masturbation needs, advanced masturbator fans will be glad to stretch their imagination with interactive webcam shows and VR porn. “You can also connect it with compatible sex toys like Pearl 3,” emphasizes Shane Davis. “The immersive toy-to-toy interactivity added a layer of excitement, allowing couples to enjoy real-time connectivity, regardless of distance.”

Besides connecting it with 2D and 3D content, the mobile app allows lovers to chat and video with each other and schedule playtime. In addition, future functions like music sync, custom patterns, and sound-activated strokes will undoubtedly make the experience more wholesome.

Let’s get into the design next. We’ve reviewed plenty of Kiiroo masturbators over the years, and one thing they consistently nail is the shape. But we’ve got to say that with Keon, the designers really delivered. The ergonomic build (shown in the image below) felt great in the hand, and the control interface was refreshingly simple—just a few well-placed, easy-to-press buttons on each side.

The buttons on the right side help control the stroke speed, while those on the left regulate the stroke length. You could even change the stroker’s position so that you can specifically target different regions of the penis. Whether you want to focus on the head of your penis for teasing fun or full-shaft blowjobs, the control interface significantly enhances the experience.

Another highlight was the RealFeel stroker’s texture. We thought it felt like the Stamina Training Unit (STU), with the characteristic evenly-sized bumps running from end to end. “The tight canal and firm, rounded bumps made the stroker ideal for a range of stimulation, including stamina training and edging play,” confirms Tim Larson. “The pocket pussy ‘s smooth TPE material felt warm around the penis, and the Helix Power texture spread the sensations from the head to the tip, making for full-on stimulation.”

Some testers raised concerns about the stroker’s size (highlighted in the image below), describing it as too big for some users. “People with limited mobility or weaker hands will find it challenging to keep up with the weighty masturbator,” says Shane Davis.

Note: For regular users, the extra weight made the experience more realistic than other smaller models we tested for the article.

The versatility was another review highlight. As stressed before, the mobile app opened the user’s world to new possibilities, including mobile control, toy-to-toy connectivity, and VR compatibility. In addition, the masturbator can be used with attachments like the PowerBlow or table clamp for automated suction pressure and hands-free pleasure.

The build quality was also very impressive. As seen in the image above, everything about the design and quality of craftsmanship was exceptional. We loved the firm housing, and the structure remained strong without any moving parts, even with vigorous shaking. “I’ve used mine a dozen times, and nothing about the stroker taints its durability, and even with continuous shaking, the structure maintained its integrity, and there was no doubt about longevity. Notably, both the masturbator and stroker were made by Kiiroo, meaning they lock in firmly without any compatibility issues.

Minor issues we found during testing:

Unfortunately, the masturbator is expensive, and budget seekers might have to look elsewhere. The cost ranges between $249 and $279, which most users, especially beginners, will find too much. We recommend going for a more affordable model like Lovense Max 2 if you’re only interested in a quick wank.

As mentioned before, some users, especially those with limited mobility and grip strength, will find the automatic stroker too heavy. Kiiroo Onyx+ is the best alternative for folks who find Keon’s dimensions off-putting.

Why Kiiroo Keon is the best automatic male masturbator:

• Design: The masturbator’s ergonomic design was a highlight of the review. We loved the simplified user interface, with easy-press buttons on the sides. Kiiroo designers made the housing and stroker, taking away any compatibility issues common with sex toys made by collaborating brands. In addition, the Helix Power texture on the stroker’s cavity evenly distributed the sensations, rendering it perfect for stamina training and teasing fun.
• Build Quality: The testers lauded the stroker’s phenomenal build quality. “The plastic body was alarming at first, but it turned out firmer than we had anticipated,” says Shane Davis. “The housing felt solid, and even after shaking it vigorously, all the parts remained in place.” More importantly, the Real Feel sleeve was made from high-quality TPE material, rendering it durable and reliable for extended use.
• Versatility: Kiiroo Keon’s versatility made it stand out from the competition. The dedicated mobile app opened endless possibilities for singles and couples. Everything from long-distance control to VR compatibility and real-time toy-to-toy connectivity, there was no limit to the capabilities. In addition, the masturbator was compatible with multiple accessories, including the table clamp and PowerBlow. The latter promoted automatic suction pressure, while the former enhanced hands-free pleasure.

2. AutoBlow AI Ultra: Blowjobs Simulations!

Why we love AutoBlow AI Ultra:

AutoBlow AI Ultra scored high across the board in our testing. The team was especially impressed by how well it balanced realism and intensity. “It was the most realistic masturbator we reviewed,” says Shane Davis. “The lifelike opening and ribbed texture inside really mimicked a blowjob with incredible detail.”

We also noticed a stopper node deeper in the sleeve that created a satisfying deep-throat sensation. And thanks to the large Video Sync Library (image below), the stroker’s movements matched the action on screen almost perfectly. “I loved browsing the blowjob videos from different pornstars,” Shane adds. “There’s something new all the time since AutoBlow keeps updating the collection—definitely a standout feature.”

The reviewers also pointed out the ergonomic design and how the finger grooves on either side helped simplify the user experience (demonstrated in the image below). The more compact 3rd generation device ran more smoothly than its predecessor, and the design was more balanced. Unlike the original masturbator, the AutoBlow AI Ultra’s stroker and sleeve moved together, thereby generating more friction and laying the foundation for more satisfying orgasms.

AI Ultra’s build quality was another highlight. You can clearly see that the AutoBlow designers paid attention to detail, incorporating reviews and changes recommended by sex toy users of the original AutoBlow toys. For instance, the team ditched the tear-susceptible lip ends on the sleeves for a more conservative Fleshlight-like design.

As said before, the masturbator is an upgrade from its predecessor. Unlike AutoBlow AI+, the sleeves feel tighter and more realistic. The mouth orifice (image below) was especially relatable; you can mistake it for your partner’s mouth. More importantly, the new masturbator features standout features like video syncing, making the experience more animated.

Besides the realistic blowjob simulation, we appreciated that the AI Ultra came with more sleeves for users looking to switch things up. The vagina sleeve was the most intense among the three, and it had a tight canal with a much sharper texture. On the other hand, the anal cavity was texture-free and relatively loose, making it perfect for newbies and those in favor of extended self-pleasuring sessions.

Lastly, the product was compatible with the AutoBlow mobile app. The dedicated application offered more control than the built-in interface for solo-play fans and couples. Pairing it with the sleeve was straightforward, and there were endless customization options. More importantly, bells and whistles like long-distance control and customized patterns made it a worthy investment.

Good Alternative: AutoBlow AI+:

If you have Erectile Dysfunction (ED), the AutoBlow AI+ (image below) is a better option because the ‘more relaxed’ structure makes it easy to use with a flaccid penis. Like the Ultra model, the stroker has three sleeves to replicate blowjobs, anal sex, and anal gaping. In addition, its compatibility with the dedicated mobile app made it more versatile, with notable bells and whistles like voice control and long-distance control.

While the Adult Video sync is unavailable for the AutoBlow AI+, the stroker was more affordable and ED-friendly.

You can find out how this alternative works better for people with ED in this AutoBlow AI+ review.

Minor issues we found during testing:

A significant concern was the dimensions. Newbies and folks with smaller hands will find it chunky, and using the product for extended sessions will be challenging.

In addition, the suction cap produced an annoying rattling sound during stoking, especially when the cap wasn’t fastened well.

Why AutoBlow AI Ultra is perfect for blowjob simulations:

• Stimulations: The blowjob simulator felt more realistic than the other review samples, thanks to the mouth-shaped opening and the detailed canal inside. While it wasn’t as intense as the vagina sleeve, the textured interior, stretchy cavity, and signature grooves on the upper side created a pretty lifelike deepthroat sensation.
• Versatility: AutoBlow AI Ultra’s compatibility with the mobile application made it stand out from the competition. The dynamic stroker was more manageable to regulate, and bells and whistles like long-distance control and customized patterns elevated the quality of solo play and coupled sex. In addition, the product came with an extra two sleeves to replicate vaginal and anal sex. The former was the most intense and tight, while the latter was loose and ideal for extended self-pleasuring sessions.
• Design: Lastly, the new design addressed concerns users raised about the previous models and incorporated them into the latest AI Ultra’s build. The testers emphasized that the stroker felt more balanced and the stroking action was smoother. More importantly, the design was ergonomic, with easy-to-use side buttons and finger grooves to enhance handling. “The single-housing design that synced the housing and sleeve movements created more friction and made the orgasms more intense,” confirms Shane Davis.

3. Lovense Max 2: Our Budget Pick!

Why we love Lovense Max 2:

If you’re on a budget and you want to sink your feet into the wild world of automated male masturbators, the Lovense Max 2 offers excellent value for money. For $99, the dual stimulation stroker provides a bang for your buck with the simplified and exciting design. Most of the models we tested were twice the price without many features to justify the price, which makes Max’s cost a massive bargain.

The ribbed cylindrical body (image below) gives the Max 2 a clean, masculine look—and it’s not just about appearances. The design also makes handling easier, especially for people with smaller hands. Compared to many other masturbators, using the Max 2 felt more natural and less bulky.

The team noted that the case was easy to open (as shown in the image below), which made cleaning fast and hassle-free. The sliding switch on the air pressure vent helped control suction, and the quick-release valve at the bottom was a smart safety feature. “I wasn’t a fan of the air vent design—it was tricky to adjust and needed fingernail precision,” says Shane Davis. “But overall, the body felt solid, and the experience was great.”

Another standout feature was the stimulation. The stroker blended vibrations and contractions in a balanced way, creating a strong and satisfying stroking motion. If regular sleeves haven’t worked for you, this hands-free penis stimulator might just change that.

Setting up the automatic stroker was simple, and pairing it with the app took just a few moments. The mobile app made everything more fun with features like music sync and custom vibration patterns. “I had my bedroom playlist going,” says Shane Davis. “Each beat triggered a new sensation, and the rhythm pulsed right through the ridges inside the sleeve.”

Minor issues we found during testing:

One of the most significant concerns we had was the porous TPE material. Cleaning and drying can be tedious because you must avoid soaking water in the microscopic holes. In addition, the sleeve attracts a bit of dust and hair, so you’ll need to clean it more often.

In addition, adjusting the suction pressure regulatory valve is challenging, and the design could be better.

Why Lovense Max 2 is our budget pick:

• Price: At $99, this dual-stimulation stroker delivers serious bang for your buck. The simple design, ribbed case, and combination of contractions and vibrations make it a standout. Most of the other models we tested in this category cost more (sometimes a lot more) without offering many extra features.
• Design: The cylindrical body significantly enhanced handling. “It was a unique mix of the low-key, sophisticated, yet masculine body that’s almost impossible to find for the price,” says Shane Davis. The easy-to-open case simplified cleaning significantly, while the air pressure vent made it easy to regulate the suction vacuum to your desired intensity.
• Versatility: Lovense Max 2’s compatibility with the mobile app gave it a high versatility score. Unlike most budget-friendly products, the dedicated application offered impressive bells and whistles, including more customization and music sync for a more hands-free experience. Pairing the two was straightforward, and the simple interface made the experience blissful for any user, regardless of experience.

If you want to see what Lovense Max 2 looks like and how to use it, please watch our unboxing and demonstration video below:

For our budget-conscious kinkster out here, you can check the Lovense Max 2 full review here.

Features:

• Material: TPE & ABS
• Insertable Width: 3.33″
• Insertable Length: 6.5″

Pros:

• The most affordable automatic penis vibrator.
• Body-safe TPE and ABS materials.
• Squishy TPE sleeve with ridges and nodes.
• Convenient Lovense mobile app.
• Bells and whistles, including music sync.
• Adjustable suction vent.

Cons:

• Cleaning TPE can be a pain in the ass.
• The air vent design could be better.

4. Lovense Solace Pro: Best Hands-Free Mount!

Why we love Lovense Solace Pro:

The Lovense Solace Pro outperformed other male masturbators when it came to hands-free capabilities. Unlike the often-unstable suction cup base models, the secure clamp attachment has a sturdy threaded peg that fits the rear connector for a stable hold.

Our testers tried the clamping system on different desks (image below) and tabletops, and the results were positive across the board. Of course, you don’t want to use a threaded peg on fragile surfaces like glass or marble, but it does great with wood. It took about two minutes to get it securely fit, which might be a bummer for people after a quick fix, but taking it down only took 20 seconds.

Something else we loved about the desk mount was the flexible structure. The adjustable 180° positioning greatly enhances the user experience, allowing you to sit, recline, or stand while using the stroker. “You can also angle the mount so the device aligns with your body for maximum comfort and stability.”

The design felt a bit chunky compared to its predecessor, but this only becomes a problem if you don’t plan to use the mount. “I tried mimicking the stroking action without the mount for a few seconds, and my forearm was sore,” affirms Tim Larson.

For the sleeve, our primary concern was the TPE material. Although it felt soft and stretchy, it’s not as durable as silicone. However, we loved the textured inside because it added a bit of resistance to the stroking, making the experience more fun. “Of course, it meant cleaning was a bit tedious because body fluids and dirt loved hiding in the crevices, but we thought the improved sensations were worth the hustle.”

The powerful motor offered numerous customization options. Besides regulating the stroke speed and depth, the mount allowed users to control the positioning for maximum comfort and stability. Notably, controlling the depth and speed made the piece ideal for edging because you could customize the action to target the head at slow speeds before transitioning into chaotic full-body thrusting when you’re about to climax.

Lovense Solace Pro’s 6-button interface (image above) was easy to figure out, but it was the app that opened the door to more possibilities. If you haven’t used the app before, we recommend watching the explainer video on the Lovense website, as it summarizes the features well. However, it was also easy to grasp, so you shouldn’t get stuck.

The mobile app enabled enhanced partner play, whether in the same room or halfway across the world. Unlike We-vibe and other apps, we found pairing to be seamless, and we didn’t have to unpair and pair it several times. The VibeMate also connected to the device, allowing you to sync with porn and other immersive content, which we found very convenient, especially when you want the extra visual motivation.

Minor issues we found during testing:

Our primary concern was the size. The design was chunkier than its predecessor, which makes it indiscreet. In addition, the TPE sleeve isn’t as durable as silicone, and you’ll need to replace it soon.

Why Lovense Solace Pro has the best hands-free mount:

• Design: Lovense Solace Pro’s hands-free desk mount made it stand out. Besides the self-thrusting system, the mount clung onto any desk or table up to 2.5″ thick, with the single-screw clamp design ensuring it remains in place throughout the session. Our testers loved the 180° adjustable positioning because it made it easy to customize the angles and position so you can either sit, recline, or stand for maximum comfort.
• Ease of Use: Although setting up the desk mount took about two minutes, the sturdy connection made it all worth it. Its 6-button interface was easy to grasp, and so were the Lovense and VibeMate mobile apps. You might have to watch the explainer video on the Lovense website to understand all the app’s features, but overall, a few uses will get you into expert mode. Features such as long-distance control, 3D content syncing, and customizable patterns made the two mobile apps resourceful.

If you want to see what the Lovense Solace Pro looks like and how to use it, please watch our unboxing and demonstration video below:

You can read our full Lovense Solace Pro review here.

Features:

• Material: TPE, ABS Plastic
• Insertable Length: 7.08″
• Stroking Length: 2.55″

Pros:

• Convenient hands-free mount.
• Easy to use.
• Impressive versatility.
• Multiple control options.
• One-year warranty.

Cons:

• It felt chunkier than its predecessor.
• Cleaning can be tedious.

5. AutoBlow VacuGlide: Most Powerful!

Why we love AutoBlow VacuGlide:

Among the male masturbators we tested, AutoBlow VacuGlide was the most powerful. The testers found the sensations 40% more intense than the other models we reviewed, making it ideal for more experienced users. Besides the intensity, the suction-based sex toy’s motor had multiple patterns and speed levels, making it easy to customize it to your preferences. “Having different pleasure modes was instrumental because it made the ultra-powerful stroker less intimidating for intermediate users,” says Shane Davis.

This automatic male masturbator comes with three different sleeves (shown in the image below), giving you plenty of options to match your size and preference. The team reported that the medium sleeve was the most comfortable overall, but it may feel too tight for girthier users. On the flip side, the larger sleeve had more give, making it better for bigger sizes, though that extra room slightly reduced the suction intensity.

One of VacuGlide’s biggest strengths was its versatility. By combining both stroking and suction functions, it delivered a much richer, more layered experience. It might take a bit of tinkering to dial in the perfect balance between the two, but once you get it right, the sensations are impressively close to a real blowjob. “We tested several so-called blowjob machines,” wrote our lead tester Tim Larson, “and only the AI Ultra came closer to mimicking the feel of oral sex.”

The gentle puffs of air created soft but satisfying sensations, while the added vibrations gave the suction more strength and depth. Together, my colleagues thought they struck a great balance. One feature we especially liked was the LED display on the side of the stroker (shown in the image below). It clearly showed the current speed setting—an often-overlooked detail that actually made using the toy much easier and more enjoyable.

Lastly, the designers clearly put thought into the size and build. The stroker felt sturdy in hand, even at the highest settings, and everyone believed this device would last for many years. The waterproof silicone sleeves were a nice touch too—silky smooth and comfortable enough to enjoy longer sessions without any discomfort.

Minor issues we found during testing:

The automatic stroker isn’t the most affordable model in the article. It costs $899.95, which most sex toy fans will find to be too expensive. We recommend getting the Lovense Max 2 if you want an affordable model.

In addition, AutoBlow VacuGlide lacks hands-free properties, which is a bummer for the price. Other models like Lovense Solace and Max 2 are compatible with mobile applications, adding a load of possibilities to the experience.

Why AutoBlow VacuGlide is the most powerful:

• Stimulations: The range of stimulation was best among the powerful models we tested. The extreme lows and highs were easy to customize, making the masturbator perfect for edging and intense orgasms. Whether you want to enjoy teasing strokes for extended sessions or hasty but intense stroking and suction patterns, the VacuGlide offers the best of both worlds.
• Design: The testers highlighted how the modern and sleek design elevated the user experience. For starters, there were multiple masturbation sleeves, making the toy ideal for different users. In addition, the compact stroker had a straightforward user interface with a responsive LED strip to help monitor the pleasure settings during use.
• Build Quality: Lastly, the build quality was rated as above average. We loved that VacuGlide designers chose high-quality materials, including aluminum, silicone, and ABS plastic. The different parts of the masturbator worked together flawlessly, and the system felt stable while holding it.

If you want to see what AutoBlow VacuGlide looks like and how to use it, please watch our unboxing and demonstration video below:

Check out our Autoblow Vacuglide review to find out how powerful this masturbator can get!

Features:

• Material: ABS Plastic, Silicone, & Aluminum
• Dimensions: 6.18″ x 15.15″

Pros:

• The most potent product.
• Different penis receivers for better customization.
• Phenomenal build quality.
• Multiple suction and vibration patterns.
• Cleaning the sleeves is straightforward.
• It comes with a cozy travel bag.

Cons:

• It’s pricey – $899.95.
• There was no app compatible with the stroker.

6. Fleshlight Universal Launch: Best For Fleshlights!

Why we love Fleshlight Universal Launch:

The Fleshlight Universal Launch is the top pick if you already own multiple Fleshlights. This newer model works with a wider range of sleeves, so you’re not limited to just a few options. Its universal design made attaching each stroker simple, and once locked in, the secure fit kept everything in place, even during more intense sessions.

The team noted right out of the box the new ratcheting system (zoomed in the image below) with a stable plastic loop that secured the sleeve from the outside. While awkward looking at first, we found it added an extra layer of security and made it easy to switch between different Fleshlights.

The ergonomic design featured large handles on each side. “It looked like something straight out of a sci-fi movie,” says Shane Davis. “But those handlebars really laid the foundation for one of the most intuitive automatic strokers I’ve used.”

Despite its size, the masturbator was surprisingly easy to control one-handed, thanks to those well-placed grips. Just below the thumbs, ergonomic buttons made it easy to adjust everything on the fly: stroke speed, length, and even position. The left-side buttons handled the stroke length and depth, while the right-side ones managed the four speed settings. We especially appreciated the positioning function, which let us fine-tune where the sleeve focused (on the tip, along the shaft, or down at the base).

The Universal Launch’s smartphone mount was another highlight of the review. Most reviewers pointed out that the lack of interactive features was a bummer. Still, we firmly believe the universal mount added more possibilities—the visual assistance of watching porn and other raunchy content while masturbating made for more exciting experiences.

Unlike the discontinued Fleshlight Launch, there’s a lot to love about the Universal Launch. Besides its compatibility with more Fleshlight sleeves, we loved the comparatively quieter and discreet build. It wasn’t whisper-quiet but relatively discreet for its size and power. Your roommate will be in the loop, but your neighbor won’t know about your newfound love.

Minor issues we found during testing:

The stroker is definitely on the pricey side, ranging from $262.67 to $291.85—an amount that might feel steep for many users. If you’re looking for something more budget-friendly, the Lovense Max 2 is a solid alternative.

We also had concerns about the lack of smart features. While many newer masturbators come with app control, VR syncing, or interactive play with other toys, the Fleshlight Launch keeps things basic. That simplicity might be a letdown if you’re hoping for a more high-tech experience.

Why the Fleshlight Universal Launch is the best for Fleshlights:

• Design: As the name suggests, the Universal Launch is compatible with most standard Fleshlight sleeves. Its unique design and rugged ratcheting system promoted security, ensuring the sleeve stays in place regardless of the intensity.
  The massive handlebars with intelligently placed buttons beneath the thumbs simplified handling. In addition, we found it easy to control the stroker with a single hand, leaving the other free to explore other erogenous zones during self-pleasuring and foreplay.
• Versatility: The Fleshlight Universal Launch performed incredibly well in terms of versatility. For starters, it was compatible with multiple sleeves, making it the perfect choice for people with a vast collection of Fleshlights. Connecting the stroker to the housing is quick, and the ratcheting system significantly enhances the security.
• Build Quality: Like other Fleshlight products, the masturbator boasted impressive craftsmanship. The designers paid attention to detail, with remarkable handles to simplify control and intelligently placed buttons beneath the thumbs. In addition, the high-quality materials emphasized the designer’s commitment to brilliance.

If you want to see what the Fleshlight Universal Launch looks like and how to use it, please watch our unboxing and demonstration video below:

You can read our full review of the Universal Launch here.

Features:

• Material: ABS Plastic, Silicone, & PC
• Size: 14″ x 11.5″ x 7.5″

Pros:

• The best product for Fleshlight owners.
• Impressive build quality.
• Sturdy ratcheting system
• It’s compatible with multiple sleeves.
• Straightforward control interface.
• Fitting smartphone holder.

Cons:

• The stroker didn’t come with a storage bag.
• No interactive or high-tech capabilities.

7. The Handy: For the Voyeur!

Why we love the Handy:

The Handy really stood out, especially with its clear TrueGrip sleeves. Watching everything in action added a fun visual twist, and my wife and I both enjoyed the view during mutual play. Plus, the transparent design made cleanup easier—you can instantly see any leftover lube or fluids that need rinsing.

We also appreciated that the Handy came with three different sleeves: the Lotus, Touch, and Lips (image below). The length ranged between 4.1″ and 5.3″ while the diameter stretched from 0.5″ to 2.75″. In addition, all the sleeves had a varied feeling, making each experience unique.

The Lotus mimicked the sensations of penetrating a vagina, with a tight canal lined with nibs and ridges from end to end. On the other hand, the Touch sleeve felt like a human hand. It even had an open end to give a natural wrist-job feeling. The five finger-like ridges and nubs accentuate the sense of a firm grip. It was also the tightest of the three, and the open end allowed the user to enjoy deeper strokes.

The Lips sleeve (image below) mimicked the feeling of a tight deepthroating mouth. The bumps in the cavity formed ridges that almost created a corkscrew pattern that felt like a swirling tongue – almost like someone slurping ice cream on a cone.

Something else that stood out when testing the male masturbator was the stimulation. The robust motor packed a punch with a max speed of 10 strokes per second. Unlike most models, the stroke length was impressive (4.3″), providing an exciting depth of pleasure. The team also praised the straightforward control interface on the side that made regulating the stroke length and speed easy.

The Handy also had some decent interactive features. It’s compatible with HandyConnect, a dedicated mobile application helping couples in long-distance relationships keep the spark alive. In addition, the app synced to porn content on sites like HandyFeeling, giving users a link to a wide range of porn videos to explore. Lastly, the stroker connected to the FeelMe AI, allowing for a more realistic experience. The advanced artificial intelligence system lets the sleeve transform a quick wank into a realistic blend of sensations from your favorite adult star.

Lastly, we appreciated that the versatile masturbator can be used with other sleeves from different brands. The ratcheting system might not be the most stylish, but it allows the user to try different strokers with the device for a more dynamic experience.

Minor issues we found during testing:

Unfortunately, the automatic stroker was louder than we had anticipated. Unless you don’t have a problem using music and other distractions to mask the sound, the Handy might not be for you.

In addition, the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity could be spotty at times. Sometimes, we had to disconnect and reconnect the app and stroker repeatedly to get it to run smoothly.

Why the Handy is ideal for the voyeur:

• Design: If you enjoy the sight of your erect dick when masturbating, the Handy gives you a glimpse of the veined shaft, adding to the visual excitement. All three sleeves are transparent, with a clear view of the textured cavity. Unlike most models, the sleeve shafts up and down on the outside, giving you 360-degree access to the action.
  In addition, the Velcro strap on the outside might not be the most sophisticated feature. Still, it significantly enhanced the security, holding onto the sleeve through the most intense stroking actions.
• Extra Bells & Whistles: The product was compatible with a convenient mobile application. The HandyConnect made it easy to regulate the stroking action with a single touch of the screen. In addition, it opened a world of possibilities, including syncing a vast collection of porn videos to the sleeve. An AI system bridged the physical gap, letting you enjoy top-tier intimacy.
• Versatility: Besides enhancing security, the Velcro strap adds to the dynamism, allowing you to use different sleeves, including those from other brands. The adjustable design and straightforward system made it completely foolproof.

Other Good Alternatives

Lovense Gush 2 performed best among the frenulum stimulators we reviewed. The flexible design felt like a bracelet on the penis, and the textured inside added to the sensations, and the compact size made it easy to hold onto the sleeve with one hand. Impressive bells and whistles like the Lovense Remote application also made it stand out. Regulating the intensity with the hand grip was another remarkable feature that complemented frenulum sensations.

Hot Octopuss Pulse Solo Lux is a good alternative for frenulum stimulation fans. The flexible body encapsulated the penis warmly, with the more rigid body feeling more intense. Notably, the lines on the inside rub against the frenulum, making the vibrations more impactful. The convenient remote with a watch strap simplifies the user experience.

Another good alternative was the Cobra Libre II. The Fun Factory’s sex toy’s dual-motor design ensures a flow of satisfying rumbles over the frenulum. With six vibration modes and multiple speeds, the toy combines power and versatility, making it a unique pick. More importantly, its open design meant people with ED could use it.

Lovense Calor stood out for its precision and easy-to-use design. The warming sensations felt so natural, you could almost mistake them for the real thing. It also works with the Lovense Remote app, giving you fun extras like music sync, remote control, and even an alarm feature. Add in the adjustable grip, textured sleeve, and multiple vibration settings, and it’s easy to see why this was our top choice among warming masturbators.

Is the Lovense Calor not compact enough? Well, the Blowmotion male masturbator is the best alternative. The small-sized model was travel-friendly, and its affordable price made it ideal for beginners and budget seekers. Toggling the warming feature was straightforward, and the powerful motor churned out an excellent range of pleasure settings.

Honey Play Box Warrior is a good rotating masturbator. The wondrous wank warrior combines hands-free thrusting and rotation settings, making for satisfying rubbing sensations. Notably, the compact design makes the stroker easy to use, while the transparent sleeve makes it ideal for voyeurs. “It felt like my partner was rinsing my member while simultaneously stroking it,” says Shane Davis.

KYO F-Motion is our top pick if you want an intense, automatic rotating masturbator. Its powerful motor combines rotating and thrusting motions, offering strong, satisfying sensations. The team noted that the textured sleeve felt great, and the ergonomic design made it easy to hold and control.

What Is an Automatic Male Masturbator?

An automatic male masturbator is a stroker designed to stimulate penetrative or oral sex through a thrusting motion. Unlike manual models, these toys feature vibrating motors and other mechanisms to stroke or massage your penis with the press of a button.

How To Use Automatic Male Masturbators?

Unlike traditional strokers, using automatic masturbators is much easier, thanks to the mechanized operation. You don’t need to stroke your penis because the sex toy does it all with just the touch of a button.

Before diving in, I recommend preparing your body, mind, and room before the action starts. Most people love taking a warm bath to get themselves ready. A good music playlist or scented candles get me in the right mood. In addition, I like to have a bottle of water-based lube within arm’s reach for easier ‘re-fueling.’

Once everything is ready, pour a generous amount of lube into the orifice, using your finger to direct it inside the sleeve. Pour some on your penis before slowly sliding it into the canal. You can experiment without the vibrations, switching between slow and fast thrusts.

Once your penis is accustomed to the sleeve, turn on the rumbles and enjoy the journey. Switch between low and high settings, making the most of the different rhythms. In addition, shift between different sex positions to keep things exciting.

Lastly, experiment with unique features like interactivity and mobile control. Most automatic masturbators are compatible with interactive content, allowing you to enjoy complete immersion. And if you’re in a long-distance relationship, connect the stroker to your lover’s sex toy and enjoy real-time interaction and control sharing.

How To Clean Automatic Male Masturbators?

As with other sex toys, regularly cleaning and properly maintaining them is key to enjoying them in the long run. After using the toy, remove the sleeve from the case (where possible) and use a sex toy cleaner or antibacterial soap to clean it. Rinse it under warm water, and air dry it completely – you can also use a clean towel to dry it.

Use a clean, damp cloth to remove visible dirt marks on the case. Ensure it’s also completely dry before sliding the sleeve back in.

Lastly, store it in a cool, dry place away from damp conditions. Ensure the storage space is away from everyone’s view—a top shelf always does it.

Happy vibing!
