Read about the advantages of silicon and metal vibrators and learn why silicon vibrators are the most popular ones.

Vibrators made of hard plastic or metal are appropriate mostly for the external stimulation of the clitoris and if they have no sharp edges, also for penetration. The advantages of these vibrators are more vibrations felt, they are easier to clean, they rarely cause an allergic reaction and they do not bend when you are giving yourself pleasure.

Metal vibrators are made of aluminum, titan, and some more prestige items even out of gold. Because they are heavier than plastic vibrators, the feeling during penetration is more intense. Metal conducts vibrations differently than plastic, so the shaking is more pleasant, but mostly different than the shaking with other vibrators. The metal is cold at first, then it warms up, which makes for pleasant, arousing sensations in the vagina. Metal materials do not usually cause allergies (especially titan), they are healthy and easy to clean. The only weakness of metal vibrators is their high price.

Soft rubber vibrators are the best selling items. They are made out of silicon, vinyl, fake leather, soft rubber, or a mixture of soft rubber and silicon. The advantage of these vibrators is their softness, which is reminiscent of skin, they are also quieter from metal and hard plastic vibrators and they do not crack as easily or break if they fall on the floor.

The best material among soft vibrators is silicon. It is the cleanest, easiest to clean, it handles vibrations best and the temperature of the rubber adapts to the temperature of the vagina really well. Soft rubber vibrators sell really well mostly because of low prices.

Some vibrators are made of hard plastic and are covered with a thin layer of silicon. These vibrators have a better vibration sensation and a softer feeling during penetration.
