May is National Masturbation Month! Even though it’s coming to a close (with Memorial Day weekend, of course), we’ve had an entire month to celebrate and practice one of the healthiest ways to get to know yourself a little better. Self-knowledge is self-love, after all, so let’s stock up on some knowledge. We’ve collected the best deals on vibrators, air pulse toys, and harnesses to ring in the unofficial start of summer. Check out our Best Sex Tech and Toys guide for more recommendations and advice.
Updated May 27, 2022: We’ve removed expired deals and added new ones from Dame and Fun Factory.

Best Suction Toy Deals
Satisfyer’s Pro Penguin Next Gen has a special place in my heart. Just look at that adorable little bow tie! This toy isn’t just cute, it’s a killer suction stimulator. It has a removable silicone mouth that’s soft and squishy to the touch, which makes it great for clitoral use. The suction is even powerful enough to be used on other erogenous zones, like the frenulum and nipples. That penguin-shaped body also serves an important purpose: It fits in your hand perfectly. Toys that require a strong grip or a lot of handling during use make my hands tired really fast, but the Pro Penguin’s shape is ergonomic and fits into your palm just right.
Suction stimulator best for small erogenous zones.

There are other air pulse toys on this list, but one of the things I like about this one is that it’s very small. My partner has pretty small hands, and sometimes bigger air pulse toys can be hard to handle. Plus, it’s super slim and discreetly fits into most luggage pockets.

Best Vibrator and Harness Deals
Standard straps can be pretty medieval-looking and intimidating. When you’re in the heat of the moment with a partner, messing around with buckles and straps can put a pause on the action. That’s why I tend to prefer the boxer brief-style harnesses. These fit just like a pair of boxer briefs, and they have a little O-ring in a pocket in the front where you can mount just about any phallic toy with a flared base. They’re snug, so they stay in place pretty much no matter what you’re doing, and this brand goes all the way up to 5X size, which is always a plus.

It has a soft flexible body, with an ergonomically curved handle that makes it much more comfortable to use solo or with partners. Honestly, the angled handle also makes it a great tool for massaging knots out of my neck. With its broad head and rumbly vibrations, it provides diffuse stimulation to just about any erogenous zone; plus it’s waterproof.
Diffuse vibes are good for any erogenous zone.
This one’s a fun-looking alternative to the usual rabbit vibrator. The oceanic theme gives the shaft a little bit of a curly little tail for anyone looking for a slightly different experience from traditional rabbit vibrators. That curly shape isn’t just for show though; it’s designed to make it easier to reach your G-spot or P-spot.
Good for internal play and all genitals. Safe for anal use.
