The best Christmas sex toys of 2023 to ensure a not-so-silent night

Our verdict

Christmas is the time for giving and receiving and this sex toy is perfect for that sentiment. Since it’s designed for couple’s use, it’s earned its place as our best overall thanks to its versatility - and can be used for solo and partner play.

It’s designed to wear during penetration, as the flat arm slips inside the vagina whilst the longer arm rests against the clitoris for dual pleasure. There are ten functions to choose from and you can even control it from the app. Plus, the toy is splashproof, which makes it perfect for using with lubes and oils. Plus, customers say it’s quiet so you don’t have to worry about waking up the in-laws during a stay over the holidays…

Still not convinced? Maybe this review of the We Vibe Sync Lite by our own MNHQ editor, Rebecca, might persuade you to gift your DP with it this Christmas. 

Our verdict

What’s better than one orgasm-inducing sex toy? A whole bundle at an amazing price tag, of course. Forget quirky jokes or little squares of chocolate, Ann Summers has a great selection of sexy advent calendars packed full of toys that are guaranteed to put a smile on your face (and your DH!). 

This great bundle is pricey at £200 but the total cost of the products is £350 when sold separately, making it an absolute steal. Amongst the delights is the Thrusting Rampant Rabbit, which has become a best-seller for a reason. Don’t believe us, just read the reviews!

Oh, and don’t miss our roundup of the best sex toy Advent calendars.

Our verdict

If you’re up for a festive fiddle, this novelty penguin toy is the perfect find. Plus, it’s a Satisfyer Pro - which comes highly recommended on our very own Talk boards. The toy uses clitorial suction to increase sensitivity and lead to a more intense orgasm. It’s not for everyone, as some of our Mumsnetters claim a traditional wand or Rampant Rabbit works better for them.

But for fans of the Satisfyer, it’s safe to say the reviews are glowing. Fans of the product suggest trying a lower speed at first and building it up slowly. And they recommend placing the toy gently on your clitoris as opposed to pushing it too firmly.

Our verdict

This toy was just built with endless pleasure in mind. Not only can it target the G-spot but it has suction and Pleasure Air Tech to satisfy the clitoris. It’s also waterproof, which makes it perfect for lubes and oils as well as a little bit of fun in the bath. 

The one drawback is some customers said the product was loud when in use, so may not be the best for discretion when you’d got relatives staying at yours for Christmas. We guess you could always say it’s your new electric toothbrush?

Our verdict

G-spot and clitorial stimulation go together like mince pies and ice cream. The perfect combination. This toy from Girls Get Off has a flexible design, which allows you to hit every spot and ensure the product works for you.

There’s also 20 different settings to choose from so we defy you to not find something that’ll knock your festive socks off. It is on the pricier side but think of it like the gift that just keeps giving. 

Our verdict

Men can be notoriously difficult to buy for at Christmas and there’s nothing exciting about watching them open a new pair of socks. So, how about investing in a prostate massager? Perfectly designed for their pleasure, this toy by We Vibe can target the prostate and perineum at once. It’s remote and app controlled, although some customers did say the app was a little tricky to navigate. But once you get the hang of it, we’re sure it’ll be a small price to pay!

Our verdict

This vibrator is festive-themed without being too kitsch. The candy cane design is so pretty and eye-catching, and customers say the variety of speed settings lets you switch things up. The plastic material might not feel as comfortable as silicone so it’s worth investing in some lubricant. But for just over £20, we say this little toy is totally worth it. Plus, it’s waterproof. What more could you ask for?

Our verdict

Just hearing the words Rampant Rabbit puts a certain spring in our step. And this cock ring is such a clever design as it’s pleasurable for you and him. The cock ring is made of stretchy silicone to adapt to any size or shape. But the real star of the show is the rabbit ears that stimulate the clitoris. There’s a variety of speed settings to choose from too, so you can both find something that gets you there.

The only negative is that it can be noisy during use and some customers said it was a little tricky to get fully charged.

Our verdict

This massager is ideal for foreplay and post-play. The four spheres move effortlessly across the skin and are ideal at soothing tired muscles. The plastic might not be as appealing for some but many reviews say it feels amazing. Massage is also perfect for intimacy and some customers say this handy tool helped them discover new erogenous zones they didn’t even know about. Don’t forget your massage oil!

Our verdict

You really can’t go wrong with a bullet. It’s often regarded as an ideal sex toy for beginners and experienced fans alike. 

This pocket-sized toy from Lovehoney is such a great price and comes in a range of bright colours. There are ten function settings for you to choose from and the tapered tip is designed for easy insertion when used with lube. You can control everything with the click of a button, which makes for easy and fuss-free usage. 

Some complained that the pocket-sized product was smaller than had hoped but for clitorial stimulation, it’s ideal. Plus, the compact design means it’s portable for travel.

Our verdict

If you’re looking to dip your toe into the world of bondage, these restraints from Lovehoney are the ideal starting point. The satin ribbon feels so festive and don’t seem as intimidating as some of the more traditional latex and leather equipment. 

Many customers said the price was really worth it and also used the restraints as a blindfold. There were a few reviews complaining that the satin was a little scratchy on the skin so may be worth loosening it up.

Our verdict

If you really want to get your partner in the mood this Christmas, why not opt for a bit of daring dress-up? This sexy Mrs Santa outfit from Ann Summers leaves very little to the imagination and comes in a good size range from 4 to 24. 

It can be worn with the suspenders for an added touch or on its own as a plunge body if you want to keep things simple. One thing to note is the lace is delicate so if your DP is desperate to rip it off, you may need to undress for him. Which we’re sure he won’t complain about.

Our verdict

Santa may be the one with the presents but we can guarantee this sexy Mrs Santa costume will be the best gift for your DP. The stretchy velvet makes for a comfortable yet figure-flattering fit and the waistband will cinch you in and create that sexy hourglass shape. Some customers say it’s also the perfect piece if you are feeling a little shy about your body as it feels sexy without being too revealing.

One downside is that it’s a one size fits all design for sizes 6 to 16. Not ideal for larger body types but Lovehoney do have a great range of lingerie for sizes up to a 28.

Our verdict

You can guarantee that nobody will be putting this elf on a shelf! The bottle green colour of this dress is a festive touch and the tight, velvet design is figure flattering. Just make sure you get a few elfies before wowing your DP with it!

Customers all agreed this dress has the wow factor but did warn that the sizing can run small, so suggested going down one or even two sizes. Especially if you have a larger bust.

Our verdict

The reviews for this card game are so positive, as customers say it's the perfect way to really push you out of your comfort and try new things. You get two sets of cards, one for women and one for men, plus a dice. The number on the dice will select a sexy option from one of the cards for you to try. 

Some customers said it was a little tame for them but that means it's ideal for newbies or people who just want to add a little spice to the bedroom.

Our verdict

This is the perfect gift from you to you. The set includes The Surfer, which is a waterproof clitoral stimulator designed for ultimate pleasure. Plus, it’s silent for the perfect level of discretion.

Smile Makers make sex toys with women in mind, which is one of the reasons Mumnset teamed up with them in 2023 to create The Whisperer - an industry first sex toy designed for new mums.

The Pleasure Trip Gift Set includes a vanity case, which means it’s perfect for taking with you on the go. The silky wipes are so nourishing and ideal for pre or post-sex and the erotic oil is made from 100% natural ingredients, which makes it great for use on sensitive skin.

Our verdict

It’s hard to argue with the price of this vibrator. At less than £10, it’s an absolute bargain. Plus, reviews say that the sleek design and tapered tip makes for easy insertion and also offers great clitoral stimulation. The one downside is that it only has one speed setting but we think that’s understandable given the bargain price. Plus, one speed setting may be all you need…
