7 Accessible Vibrators You Can Use With Just One Hand

When you go through life using one hand, some things can be challenging. About six years ago, I was in an accident that caused my left arm to be paralyzed from my elbow to my fingertips. I soon discovered that small, routine tasks were the most difficult to do: tying my shoes, washing dishes, chopping onions, and using a vibrator—yes, a vibrator.

I believe that sexual pleasure should be frequent, stress-free, and accessible to all. The first vibrator I bought, however, was a struggle to operate with one hand. Intimacy really shouldn't feel tedious, and a vibrator is one of those things you don't want to ask your friendly neighbor/roommate/mom for help with if you're having trouble using it.

After more failed vibrator purchases, I figured out what I needed and now look for an accessible vibe. First, it should come with an easy charger plug-in option, magnetic preferred, and no batteries. I also prefer a comfortable hold; I want to be able to relax my grip without worrying about a runaway vibrator (especially if lube is involved!). Finally, it should have well-placed buttons and on/off functions. I once bought one that you needed to twist on—no thanks.

If you live with an arm or hand impairment like I do, the following vibrators are excellent options to look into. If you have two very functional hands, don't assume these vibes aren't also for you—they just might help you master the art of multitasking in the bedroom. I've selected seven toys, since everybody deserves options. These inclusive vibrators, for solo or couple play are equipped for single-hand usage (one is even hands-free) from start to finish.
