The mighty rabbit vibe is named after the attractive bunny ears that protrude from the clitoral teaser. Still, this is not how the rabbit vibe got its name, as this toy was invented in Japan in the 1980s. The country’s strict laws caused Vibratex, the manufacturer, to design their sex toys using animal shapes and make them in bright colors.
Many of these were quite popular, but the Rabbit Vibrator stood above the rest. Still, it was in 1998, when Sex and the City devoted a whole episode to the rabbit vibe, that this sex toy gained global fame, and the rest, as they say, is history. So, here we discuss all you need to know on how to choose a rabbit vibrator and why this vibe is the prime choice for many ladies.
What Is a Rabbit Vibrator?
The rabbit vibrator is a high-tech vibrating sex toy that provides combined clitoral and G-spot stimulation. The main feature of the rabbit vibe is that it has an L-shaped protrusion from the main shaft that curves upward to reach the clit. This sex toy has come a long way since its inception in the 1980s, and today, different companies have improved the design and features, providing us with multiple pleasure toy choices.

How to Choose a Rabbit Vibrator?
You need to choose the right rabbit vibe for you so you can have a profoundly pleasurable experience. The options are very diverse, so here we list the main things to note when choosing a rabbit vibe, especially if you are a beginner in using such a sex toy:
- Design – the design of the rabbit vibe is the first thing you need to look at when selecting your new toy. You can choose between models with straight shafts, models with curved shafts, or models with bulbous or textured shafts. You can also choose a model with a rigid or flexible shaft or even a model that thrusts on top of the vibrating clitoral stimulator. The options are versatile, so we suggest any beginner pick a model that is simpler in design and easier to use, and after gaining some experience, you can go for a more advanced model.
- Size – the different rabbit vibes come in various sizes, but all vaginas are different too, so getting a model that fits you in size is vital. You already have a good idea of what insertable size you are comfortable with, so get a rabbit vibe that is compatible with that size. If you have doubts, then we recommend you get a smaller model, as you can more easily use a smaller model instead of a larger one that may be painful to use. Also, consider the clitoral tickler size, as the majority of models are designed to hug the clit and provide targeted vibrations. We also suggest you get a model that has a slightly flexible tickler so you can get some room to move and find that sweet spot.
- Material – The material choice is critical for safe use, and we always recommend that you get a model made from silicone. Silicone is non-porous, body-safe, and comfortable to use, and most silicone sex toys are waterproof and effortless to clean. Please note that silicone toys are only compatible with water-based lubes. We suggest you stay away from rabbit vibes made from jelly, as this material is porous and challenging to clean.
- Power – you can choose between battery-powered or rechargeable models, and both have their merits. However, our primary recommendation is to get a high-tech rechargeable model that you can use over and over again and have a reliable rabbit vibe that will serve you for years. High-tech rabbit vibes come with battery level indicators, so you’ll know when it is time to charge your toy.
- Waterproof rating – we recommend you get a rabbit vibrator that is waterproof or at least splashproof. You can use a waterproof rabbit vibe in the shower or bathtub, and it is also effortless to wash and keep clean. Splashproof toys are also straightforward to clean, as you can rinse them with sex toy cleaner and warm water, but non-waterproof toys are challenging to maintain.
- Extra Features – apart from the main features of the rabbit vibe, which is to provide internal and clitoral stimulation, some models come with more features like thrusting, warming, sucking, rotating, etc. You can also get models with remote controllers or app-controlled vibes that allow you app connectivity and long-distance control.
Tips for Using a Rabbit Vibrator
Using a rabbit vibrator is easy, and the key is relaxation and getting used to the sensations. Here are a couple of tips to help you get used to using a rabbit vibe:
- Charge it and learn the controls – before you start using your rabbit vibe, charge it and learn the controls. Try out all the buttons and see which button controls the vibrations and intensities; scroll through all the intensities and patterns so you won’t be surprised or ruin the experience once you start playing with it.
- Relax and enjoy – foreplay is key, and you should devote enough time to sexy teasing and getting in the mood to play. It does not matter if you are playing by yourself or with a partner, as getting in the right mindset is essential for intense pleasure. Do the things that set the mood, like music, candles, or even porn, and allow your body to become relaxed and aroused.
- Always use lube – you should use lube any time you use a sex toy, and the rabbit vibe is no exception. Even if your vagina is very wet, adding some lube is helpful, as it will make insertion better and the clitoral teasing even more comfortable. We recommend you only stick to water-based lube that is safe for vaginal use and is compatible with silicone rabbit vibes.
- Experiment with movements and sensations – start playing with your rabbit vibe slowly, first teasing your erogenous zones, and once significantly aroused, you can lip the shaft inside the vagina. Test the movements and position the clitoral teaser on your clit, moving it slightly to find the best spot. Try different movements and poses, and experiment with the things you like the most.
Cleaning a Rabbit Vibrator
You need to clean your rabbit vibrator thoroughly to ensure you have a safe toy to use. You’re your waterproof rabbit vibrator with soap and water or your favorite sex toy cleaner, and you can also clean and wash a splashproof rabbit vibe with water and sex toy cleaner. Once it is clean and dry, store it in a particular sex toy storage bag and keep it away from other sex toys, heat, and direct sunlight.
