10 Best Grinder Toys [Video Demonstration]

We use affiliate links and may receive a small commission on purchases.

All the grinder sex toys we testedI don’t know about you, but I’ve been grinding all my life. And I’m not the only one: grinding up against something is the way a lot of people learn to masturbate. But using a pillow gets old fast; there’s no texture, there’s no pushback, and there’s certainly nothing for the imagination to run away with.

But now you can buy a grinder that’s as good for masturbating as it is for partnered sex! These upgraded, modernized grinders have features no pillow could ever dream of, like straps to attach to your partner’s leg (or arm or face if you are so inclined), designs to give your wildest fantasies free rein, and body-safe materials that come to life with lube.

But how do you select the ideal grinder toy? You should consider whether you like a lot of friction or a little, want to play by yourself or with a partner, and how much you’re willing to spend. This list has the staff’s favorites, including one that works as a cock ring, something for those who like a little penetration when they grind, and a must-try for anyone who is just here for the texture (Spoiler: Our favorite is Uncover Creations Handheld Tentacle Grinder II.)

1. Uncover Creations Handheld Tentacle Grinder II: Test Winner

Uncover Creations Handheld Tentacle Grinder

Why we love the Handheld Tentacle Grinder II:

The Handheld Tentacle Grinder II is a grinder toy that fits like a glove, thanks to the three-finger slots. It doesn’t have straps to attach to your partner or a pillow, because you instead wear it while you rub. Or, if you prefer, you can insert a vibrating bullet to make it an extra-sensory experience. Uncover Creations sells one as an upgrade that will fit perfectly into the glove, but you can also use a standard-sized bullet vibe if you have one on hand.

Underneath the tentacle texture is a coral design that screams under the sea. Once you slip it onto your hand, you can use your imagination, and voila! Your arm has magically transformed into a tentacle. The Uncover Creations Handheld Tentacle Grinder II is thin enough that you can slip it on your fingers and grind against it during sex, whether you’re in missionary position, doggy, or cowgirl.

Wearing a grinder sex toy on your hand is an excellent way to get your daily bump and grind in, especially if you have lower energy. Using your hand to rub rather than your torso takes a lot less energy and is perfect for those who don’t have much left in the tank at the end of the day. Keep in mind that this model doesn’t come with slots for straps, so you won’t be able to affix it to something.

Minor issues we found during testing:

The Handheld Tentacle Grinder II is one of the most difficult products on this list to clean. The intricate texture and finger slots make for a lot of places for dust and lube to gather, especially if you don’t get the silky-smooth upgrade. You can’t quite turn it inside out, so you must be sure you use a sponge or toothbrush to reach inside and scour all the little bacteria-attracting pockets.

The finger slots are slightly shallow and one-size-fits-all. Since they’re not adjustable, they may not fit all finger sizes. But my partner, who has large fingers, could wear it snugly and comfortably. The finger holes were a bit looser on me, but they fit just fine as long as I curled them up a bit.

Features:

  • Material: Platinum silicone
  • Length: 4.4” long, 3.3” wide, 2” deep finger slot
  • Weight: 5 oz

Pros:

  • Perfect for solo or partnered grinding
  • Affordable: just $40
  • Small, lightweight, and waterproof—perfect for travel

Cons:

  • Difficult to clean

2. The Snap Dragon Grinder: Best BookTok Fantasy Grinder

The Snap Dragon Grinder

Why I love the Snap Dragon Grinder:

Fellow BookTokers, this one’s for you. The Snap Dragon Grinder is the perfect grinder toy to pair with your latest romantasy novel. Snuggle in with some explicit smut, and keep the Snap Dragon nearby with some lube, because things are about to get steamy. It’s so striking, I inevitably end up showing it off during book club. The silky materials and heft alone are enough to impress.

The Snap Dragon Grinder is uniquely ideal for BookTok grinding because of its supernatural/paranormal design. If the book you’re reading doesn’t currently include a dragon, you can imagine this dragon is a shapeshifter. That’s what I like to do, anyway. The design begs to be paired with dark romance, creepy creatures, and twisted fantasy literature. It’s the combination of a beautiful snapdragon flower with the face of a dragon, so it’s already shapeshifting.

What I love about this grinder most is that there is space for a wand. What’s a more perfect fantasy sex toy than a dragon with a wand? It could not be more magically themed. I have several to choose from, and nearly all of them fit into the wand hole. The mini wands work if you hold them in place, but full-size wands work better. Once the wand is inside, the vibrations travel easily through the silky, body-safe platinum silicone, and you can insert the dragon’s insertable tongue for extra stimulation. This is one of the most stimulating grinder toys I’ve tried, thanks to the wand slot and double stimulation with tongue insertion.

Next, the design has strap holes, so you can put it on your partner and grind away or attach it somewhere else. Why is this so clutch? Because it frees up my hands to turn the pages of my latest smut selection. Pro-tip: use lube and reapply as necessary because edging and smut-reading go together like wine and cheese. You can customize it, too, with the different colors, firmness, and ability to add a wand to ensure the Snap Dragon Grinder pairs with your latest book perfectly.

Minor issues I found during testing:

The tongue isn’t super sturdy, depending on the firmness of the silicone you choose, so riding the dragon’s tongue is difficult until you get the feel for it.

Features:

  • Material: Body-safe platinum silicone
  • Size: Length 7.5”; width 5.5”; insertable length 3”; insertable circumference 3.7”
  • Weight: 2 lbs., 3 oz

Pros:

  • Gorgeous design
  • Customizable colors, firmness, and more
  • Can strap to a person or chair for hands-free play (so you can read)
  • Dual stimulation, plus designated space for wand vibe
  • Only $99

Cons:

  • Very soft, can be difficult to ride tongue

3. Knot II Dildo: Best Dildo to Pair with a Fantasy Grinder

Knot II Dildo

Why I love the Knot II Dildo:

The Knot II Dildo offers the “bump” for the bump and grind, rather than grinding in the more traditional sense. In other words, it’s knot a regular dildo. This is an insertable fantasy dildo that might be the perfect paranormal dildo for your collection. I’m obsessed with the unique design, silky silicone, and gorgeous color combinations available. The material is legitimately otherworldly.

I haven’t tested many dildos that get significantly wider at the bottom, but this one does, and it is an experience. It stimulates the nerve endings at the base of the vagina while stimulating the G-spot; plus, it looks like it could belong to a nefarious fantasy creature. The sudden rise in intensity when I reach the knot takes my breath away every time. It’s an out-of-this-world feeling in more ways than one. Few other dildos I’ve tested can provide a similar sensation of fullness, and the knot helps it stay in place.

Better yet, you can choose from a variety of sizes based on your experience level. I started with the extra small, and I’m glad I did. Even the medium size is an impressive specimen. You can also add a suction cup if you’d like to ride it hands-free on the floor or attached to a shower wall. Pair it with a grinder, and suddenly you’re in the middle of a fantasy adventure like no other. The Uncover Creations Knot II is thinner than the Knot I and more comfortable for beginners. It’s also easier to manage when paired with a grinder for the perfect dual-stimulation combo. The versatility is impressive, as this knot works well in a harness, so it’s perfect for partnered penetration play.

Once you try a knotted dildo, it may be tough to go back to the traditional kind. I find the deeper stimulation addicting, and the Knot II Dildo by Uncover Creations provides it in spades. You’ll feel the distinct “pop” right at the end, and you’ll likely love it or hate it. I love it. It takes the idea of thrusting and turns it on its head, as insertion is the main challenge. The Knot II Dildo opened my eyes to new ways to enjoy internal pleasure and shifts the burden from G-spot stimulation to everywhere stimulation.

Minor issues I found during testing:

With the super soft materials, the largest knots can be difficult to insert. And the extra size won’t be comfortable for people who experience pain during insertion.

Features:

  • Material: Platinum-cured silicone
  • Size: XS has 4.5” insertable length; 5.4” total length; knot circumference 4.5”
  • Weight: 3 oz

Pros:

  • Affordable at $69 (for extra-small; prices rise with size increase)
  • Various sizes and upgrades available, including a vac-u-lock hole or suction cup base
  • Fantasy-forward aesthetic
  • Can be used hands-free with a grinder for double the sensation

Cons:

  • Extra girth may be painful for people with dyspareunia

4. Tentacle Masturbator II: Best Fantasy Grinder for Penises

Tentacle Masturbator II

Why I love the Tentacle Masturbator II:

Penis-owners, I haven’t forgotten about you. My penis-having partner is obsessed with the Tentacle Masturbator II grinder, and for good reason. He gets to join me in my romantasy obsession, and penises deserve as much whimsy and wonder as the vaginal sex toys get. The Tentacle Masturbator II makes that a reality. Moby Dick role play, here we come (pun intended!).

This stroker has a tentacular sensation, with internal suction cups providing the seafaring texture my partner didn’t know he was missing until he tried it. It’s not as silky as TPE strokers we’ve tested before. You would never mistake it for the real thing (like a vagina or anus), which is exactly what he wanted in a fantasy grinder. It’s not vagina-like; it’s tentacle-like, so you’re never taken out of the fantasy.

The firmness you choose directly affects your experience, and that’s a good thing. People with giant or extra-girthy penises will want the softest kind called squishy soft so that they can fit comfortably. It’s difficult to use soft, but it’s one of my partner’s favorites because of its unique, intense texture. This is one you’ll always want to use copious amounts of water-based lube with, to ensure you don’t get tentacle burn—unless you have a tentacle burn kink.

Every single detail of the design is gorgeous. Many strokers we’ve tested are not durable, are porous, and are disposable. The Tentacle Masturbator II is the opposite. The non-porous, made-to-last exterior is easy to clean and low-maintenance. This is a stroker we will be using for role play for the foreseeable future, and it might be my partner’s favorite non-realistic stroker.

Minor issues I found during testing:

The tentacles can be intense, and the silicone can feel extra sturdy. If you have an extra-large erection or sensitive skin, this stroker might provide too much sensation to be pleasurable.

Features:

  • Material: Platinum-cured silicone
  • Size: Length: 4.3”; 2.3” diameter; 7.2” circumference
  • Weight: 7.5 oz

Pros:

  • Unmistakable texture
  • Intense stroking sensations
  • Excellent for partnered fantasy play
  • Affordable base price of $59
  • Durable and easy to clean

Cons:

  • Texture is intense; the stroker may not be comfortable for extra-large erections except with the squishy-soft texture
  • Won’t work well for people with ED, since it is so firm

5. The Cowgirl Rodeo Rumbler: Best Automatic Grinder Toy

The Cowgirl Rodeo Rumbler Grinding Sex Machine

Why we love The Cowgirl Rodeo Rumbler:

We compared a range of automatic grinder-style toys built for clitoral stimulation, and The Cowgirl Rodeo Rumbler stood out as the most balanced performer in power, comfort, and control. It was also the most stable on multiple surfaces during testing, thanks to its non-slip base and flexible build. Most grinder toys either slide around or feel too rigid to allow natural movement, but this model combines firm support with just enough flex to move with the body.

What really sets the Rodeo Rumbler apart is how effectively it delivers external stimulation. Many sex machines focus on penetration or thrusting, but this one centers entirely on grinding, vibration, and tapping sensations. The tapping mimics a rhythmic pulse similar to what suction toys provide, while the vibration delivers a deeper, more grounded rumble. Together, they create sensations that feel more organic and steady compared to other automatic grinders. During our tests, the Rodeo Rumbler achieved higher satisfaction ratings among users who prefer external stimulation only.

Close-up of the clitoral tapper

The usability also impressed us. Both the vibrator and the tapper (image above) can run independently, giving full control over the intensity and rhythm. The rechargeable remote control worked well from a short distance, making it possible to switch settings without losing the groove. Battery life reached 1 hour and 40 minutes at mid-power, which is above average for grinder-style toys. It recharged in about 90 minutes using the magnetic cable included in the box.

Build quality was another deciding factor. The Rodeo Rumbler is made from soft silicone over a rigid ABS frame, creating a comfortable surface that still feels secure when used on a bed or chair. At 2 by 4.2 by 11.5 inches and just under 0.8 pounds, it’s portable, so you can store it discreetly or take it on trips. The waterproof rating (IPX6) means it’s easy to clean, though it shouldn’t be submerged. Sound levels ranged between 46 and 60 decibels, which we believe is quiet enough to use under blankets or in shared living spaces.

Close-up of the two control buttons

Minor issues we found during testing:

The button placement could be improved. Depending on how you position the toy, one of the control buttons may sit behind you, making it harder to adjust manually. The device also shuts off completely when turning off the tapping mode, which interrupts use. These are small usability issues rather than major flaws, but are worth noting.

6. Uncover Creations Tentacle Grinder: Best For Extreme Sensations

Uncover Creations Tentacle Grinder

Why we love the Uncover Creations Tentacle Grinder:

The Uncover Creations Tentacle Grinder looks like something straight out of Moby Dick. It’s gorgeous, with intricate color wisps and tiny little suction cups begging for something sensitive to rub against them. There are four holes on the outside where the straps go so that you can attach it to your partner or anything else you want to hump. The straps are 2.5 feet long, so if you are planning to attach it around your partner’s waist, it will only fit people who are fairly slender around the middle. It fits my partner but would not fit anyone bigger, so you might want to order a larger strap if your partner’s stomach is larger than 2.5 feet around. Otherwise, strap it onto a limb.

It’s a thick boy, so it’s ideal for being extra sturdy, but not so great for rolling up and using it as a stroker. Anyone with a clit will love the rise and fall of the tentacular texture. There are sloping ribs in between the tentacles, which offer a gentler experience for those with extra-sensitive clits. But the small, knobby suction cups, the silky-smooth finish, and the dual-density upgrade make this the most intense grinder I tried. I didn’t expect the forgiving, silken little protuberances to be so forceful, but they were.

One of the other thoughtful components of the design is that it’s asymmetrical and full of details. You can grind against one spot on one day, move ½ inch over, and have a completely different experience the next time. No two grinding spots are alike, and you may find that you like the sides where smaller tentacles intertwine or the middle where they recede best. Flipping it around and grinding against a new spot feels like a different masturbating adventure.

All the Uncover Creations grinder toys are customizable, so you can pick a firmness that ranges from super soft to squishy soft or dual-density (which will feel a little bit like human skin). You can choose a strap color, add a vibrating bullet hole, or purchase a silky-smooth upgrade. My Tentacle toy came with a silky-smooth upgrade, made from a durian-derived formula. I was intrigued by this since I’ve never heard of durian in a sex toy before. I’ve traveled to Southeast Asia and smelled the real thing, and it’s indeed a memorable experience. The Tentacle Grinder, thankfully, smelled nothing like the durian fruit I remember, but all the toys had a slight, unfamiliar odor.

The silky-smooth finish made this notably less tacky than the other Uncover Creations models I’ve played with, and I enjoyed the texture significantly more. Without it, the grinder sex toys are sticky and immediately pick up dust and debris. However, the silky-smooth exterior is not as shiny and has a matte aesthetic, so if that will mess up your seaside fantasy, skip the silky-smooth upgrade.

Since the Tentacle Grinder has so many gorgeous details, you’ll want to be sure you’re fully aroused and lubed up before going toe-to-toe with this guy. Every single bump is tiny, and since mine came with the dual-density upgrade, it was firm. This combination will work best for people seeking the most powerful grinding experience. It’s extra stable with the dual-density and solid core, so it’s perfect for those who don’t want something to move as much during playtime.

Minor issues we found during testing:

The body is large and thick, so it wouldn’t be the perfect choice to roll up and use as a stroker. It functions best as a grinder, so it’s slightly less versatile than some of the other thinner, more pliable designs. There’s no spot for your hand, but you can add a hole for a bullet vibe for an upcharge of $13.

The Tentacle Grinder is covered in bumps and ridges, and the tiny bumps make for a sensation overload. If you have a sensitive clit, you’ll want to opt for something that has mostly ridges, which feels less gritty. This one can be almost painful, especially if you don’t use extra lube. If your clit isn’t overly sensitive, this is the perfect option.

The detailed design means endless little spots for lube to crust over and bacteria to hide. Wash thoroughly and often!

Features

  • Material: Platinum Silicone
  • Length: 7”
  • Width: 4.9”
  • Weight: 1 lb, 3 oz

Pros:

  • Gorgeous
  • Detailed bumps add extra sensation.
  • The tall, dense base works for partnered use.

Cons:

  • More expensive: $77, plus upgrades like color, firmness, and finish

7. Uncover Creations Tentacle Grinder IV: Best for Penetration

Uncover Creations Tentacle Grinder IV

Why we love the Uncover Creations Tentacle Grinder IV:

The Uncover Creations Tentacle Grinder IV has a long, suction-cupped tentacle for grinding against with a base that flares into an erection-like nub. Therefore, the test team rated this bae as perfect for anyone who wants the best of both worlds: grinding against a textured work of art and then inserting the tentacle for a sensation-filled finish. The flat base is huge, and if you have it secured to something like a leg or a lamp post with the buckles fastened completely, it should be safe for vaginal or anal penetration. The extra-wide base adds stability without adding a ton of weight.

Not only is the tentacle part realistic, but the background also has the welded-steel look and circular windows of a ship from which the aquatic erection springs forth. If this doesn’t bring out the seafaring adventurer in you, I’m not sure what will.

The internal arm is smaller but large enough to reach most G-spots. It also has a smaller tip that widens the further you insert it for an unexpected feeling of fullness. Since you can use the straps to strap this on a partner, it’s great for anyone who doesn’t have a penis or can’t get an erection, but still wants to feel and see their partner get penetrated.

Minor issues we found during testing:

The penetrative part of this grinder is small, which I loved, but it will unquestionably disappoint size queens. It’s also super flexible, making it extra comfy for insertion but harder to ride. The platinum silicone is oh-so-soft, making it perfect for grinding against, but you won’t want to tie the straps too tightly, or it may feel like the holes could tear through the toy after extended use (though this never happened throughout our extensive testing).

The large suction cups provide a bumpy ride for your clitoris, but there is no space in between where there are smooth ridges. That means that there’s no cool-down zone for your clit, so you’ll have to have texture throughout. If that’s how you like to grind, this won’t be an issue, but if you’re extra sensitive like me, you might want to find a model that has some smoother areas where your clit can take a break if it is getting overstimulated. It’s also not great for someone who doesn’t want any penetration—it’s too cumbersome to try to avoid the erect tentacle.

Features:

  • Material: Platinum silicone
  • Length: 7.5” long, width 5.5”, insertable length 3.85”
  • Weight: 1 lb, 3 oz

Pros:

  • Dual stimulation
  • Perfect for partner or solo play
  • The sturdy base and the heavier design don’t move as much.
  • Excellent for people with disabilities

Cons:

  • Not great for those who don’t want penetration

8. Uncover Creations Spiked Grinder: Most Versatile

Uncover Creations Spiked Grinder

Why we love the Uncover Creations Spiked Grinder:

The Spiked Grinder is a lot comfier and sexier than it sounds. It’s less like masturbating with a pineapple and more like rubbing against something very gently prickly. It reminded me of my acupressure mat, but instead of helping me relax, this soft model is meant to help you get off. Make all your sea urchin fantasies come true with the tender texture. It’s so lightweight and pliable that you can rub against it if you have a clit or roll it into a circle and use it as a stroker. Form it into a C-shape, and it looks like a sea monster’s teeth. A sex toy that works equally well on any gender is difficult to find, but the Spiked Grinder pulls it off.

The large spikes feel gentler than you’d expect because they are soft. They are also big enough to bend, so if you’re using this as a stroker, you will feel the motion of them bending more than a texture. The smaller ones feel more gravelly, gritty, and intense. Since there are different areas of spikes, you can decide where you want to grind and move from gentle spikes to more intense textures as you get more turned on. You can also start with the Spiked Grinder, gently gliding over your clit for a ticklish sensation, and then slowly press down for something more extreme.

The Uncover Creations Spiked Grinder is a body-safe sex toy, thanks to the fact that it’s made from platinum silicone. It’s waterproof and easy to clean—boil it or throw it in the dishwasher. The straps are less easy to keep bacteria away from, but a cycle on the highest heat in your washing machine ought to do the trick. Put them in a bag for delicates if you’re worried about damaging them or them making a bunch of noise. It’s best not to dry them in your laundry dryer, though, so hang them up to air dry instead.

Minor issues we found during testing:

This model is so versatile, fun, and easy to use that it was hard to find an issue with it. The design isn’t as aquatic as the others, so it may be harder to incorporate into a sea monster fantasy. But if that isn’t your thing, this is the ideal grinder for you.

It’s also long enough that it can reach your anus, so you’ll need to be careful with your motion so that you aren’t essentially wiping back to front, transferring bacteria that can lead to a UTI. Lastly, it’s somewhat narrow, so you have to grind mindfully so that you don’t interact with the straps, which are much less sexy to grind up against.

Features:

  • Material: Platinum silicone
  • Length: 6.9” long, 3.1” wide
  • Weight: 7.25 oz

Pros:

  • Affordable: only $40 without upgrades
  • Versatile, great for people of any gender
  • Easy to clean

Cons:

  • The narrow design and extra flexible spikes mean you may be grinding against the straps.

9. Uncover Creations Tentacle Grinder II Cock Ring: For Straight Couples

Uncover Creations Tentacle Grinder II Cock Ring

Why we love the Uncover Creations Tentacle Grinder II Cock Ring:

The Uncover Creations Tentacle Grinder II turned out to be such an incredible cock ring. It is stretchy, and it fits my partner’s erection comfortably and snugly. The straps provide extra stability for the top part of the cock ring and plenty of room for your clit to grind against. Pro tip: if you want this to give extra sensation, put something between it and your partner, like a small towel, so it protrudes even more since the base height is thin.

The cock ring diameter is 1.18” and stretches to 3.14”, so measure your erection’s girth before making this purchase. There’s no way to adjust the ring, so it’s essential to be sure it fits you before deciding to buy it.

The base of the cock ring is covered in coral, and then there is a tentacle with soft ridges and nubby suction cups to tempt your clit. Both my partner and I loved the feel and look of this cock ring. Plus, it didn’t fall prey to the main problem most clit-targeting cock rings have: a lack of surface area. A lot of vibrating cock rings have too little space for the clit to play against, but this one is larger, and it feels amazing for both partners when your clit rubs against the tentacle. Further, the tentacle has ridges that are smoother and less stimulating (my personal favorite) as well as tiny suction cups, which are more tactile and intense when you rub against them.

Minor issues we found during testing:

Since the Uncover Creations Tentacle Grinder II Cock Ring is made from platinum silicone, the texture is a little sticky. If you opt for the upgrade to the silky-smooth finish, you likely won’t have issues, but if you have pubic hair, it may get caught and stuck against this type of material. If both partners shave or wax, this won’t be an issue.

Features:

  • Material: Platinum silicone
  • Length: 5.9”
  • Width: 2.7”
  • Weight: 5 oz

Pros:

  • Comfortable to wear
  • Customizable
  • Easy to clean

Cons:

  • The thin base may need some extra height to reach your clit.
  • The sticky texture may catch the wearer’s pubic hair.

10. Uncover Creations Tentacle Grinder II: Beginner-Friendly

Uncover Creations Tentacle Grinder II

Why we love the Uncover Creations Tentacle Grinder II:

The Uncover Creations Tentacle Grinder II was easily my favorite of the bunch to rub up against. It’s tall enough that you don’t have to be super acrobatic to grind against it on your partner’s body or on a pillow. It has broad, smooth ridges that provide a tantalizing texture that’s not overstimulating—and there are suction cups on the side of the tentacles in case you want more friction to amp up the grind. Further, there are different sizes of suction cups, so you can customize how much stimulation you receive.

My Tentacle Grinder II came with a hole for a bullet vibe, an optional upgrade that costs $13. I highly recommend it. If you’re used to masturbating with a vibrator, having optional vibrations can bridge the gap and help you transition to grinding while masturbating. The platinum silicone material transferred the vibrations unexpectedly well, turning this into an excellent vibrating toy. With the slippery lube, it opened up a whole new world of sensations.

The hole fits all standard-sized bullet vibes, and I used the bullet that came with my Lovehoney Sex Toy Advent Calendar, and it worked like a charm. If you use the vibrating feature and have it strapped to your partner, they may feel a bit numb if it takes you a while to get off, thanks to the transfer of the vibrations.

The bullet vibrator hole makes this slightly more difficult to clean. But the orgasms you’ll have more than make up for this minor inconvenience.

Minor issues we found during testing:

We loved this grinder so much that it was difficult to find fault with it. But with the bullet vibrator hole, this would be somewhat difficult to clean. The nooks and crannies are what make it so stimulating to grind against, but they also attract debris like nothing else. At $78, this is one of the more expensive grinders, but it was 100% worth the money. This was an impeccable grinding experience.

Features:

  • Material: Platinum silicone
  • Length: 7.5”
  • Depth: 1.77”
  • Weight: 15.5 oz

Pros:

  • Gentle ribs for smooth gliding
  • Sturdy base
  • Perfect texture for beginners
  • Can add a hole for a bullet vibrator for an upcharge

Cons:

  • Slightly difficult to clean

Other Good Alternatives

The Tentacle Grinder IVDid you know some Uncover Creations grinders come in the tiniest of sizes? The Tentacle Grinder IV has a small counterpart that is perfect to put in your bag on your next vacation. This small grinder has the littlest penetrator ever, a cute little tentacle that can be punishingly pleasurable and so much fun on a trip. It will leave you wanting more, even after climax. I find it even more interesting for edge-play, as it gives you a taste but nothing more. Keep it in your purse, and no one will ever be the wiser—if you can stop yourself from showing everyone you come across. I know I can’t.

Tentacle Grinder TinyThe under-2” Tentacle Grinder Tiny belongs with you, wherever you go. I keep this and a sample lube bottle in my purse for devious role-play whenever I’m out and about. It’s pretty, polished, and perfect for quickies on the go. It’s so cute that I can’t help but show it off, thanks to its tiny, tentacle-filled design. The little one offers shockingly substantial stimulation because the many detailed knots are rippled and full of surprises. The larger grinders have less concentrated texture, which feels softer and less intense overall. This tiny one is for someone who wants a good price, something meant for travel, and intense stimulation, which is me when I go on vacation.
