How to choose a sex toy for students

Looking for the perfect sex toy as a uni Student? Don’t panic! Let the LOVE Team, your devoted experts, walk you through the journey. Affordable, whisper-quiet, and user-friendly: dive in with us to discover your next pleasure buddy.

Uni life? It's a whirlwind of feelings, learnings, and fresh experiences, and yes, that includes the world of intimacy. Trying out a sex toy can be a fab way to explore your own body, get to grips with what gets you ticking, and chill out after a full-on day. But with so many options out there, how do you even start? Enter: the LOVE Team. We're here to shed some light and guide the way. In this cheeky guide, we'll highlight what every student's looking for in a sex toy: it needs to be discreet (because, hello, shared living), budget-friendly (we get it, every quid counts), and compact (to fit those, let’s admit it, not-so-spacious digs).

A budget-friendly dildo

Whether you're just dipping your toes into the world of sex toys or you're after something straightforward, effective, and won't make your wallet cry, the dildo's got your back. It's easy on the purse strings, but that doesn't mean you're scrimping on quality—if you know where to look.


One of the major pluses of a dildo? Its low-key vibe. Easy to stash away, you can keep it handy—by your bedside or tucked in a drawer—without worrying it'll cramp your style or become the room's main attraction.


And let's talk longevity! With a bit of TLC, a decent dildo can stick with you throughout your uni years and maybe even clock in some overtime.

Glass sex toys: class, versatility, and slyness

When it's about meshing functionality with a touch of class, glass sex toys are undeniably at the top of the leaderboard. If you're counting pennies but want to make every single one bang for its buck, a glass sex toy could be a game-changer for you.


What's one of the major wins with glass toys? They're absolute temperature teases. Fancy a warm and cosy vibe? Just soak your toy in some hot water. Or, for a tantalising tingle, give it a chilly dip. One piece, and you've got a whole spectrum of feels at your fingertips.


And here's a sneaky tip: keep it on your bedside table, and your glass sex toy can double up as a swanky piece of modern decor. Dodge any awkward encounters and even spark up a chinwag about art and design. Who'd have thought pleasure could be so... cultured?

A contact-free clit stimulator: stealth and subtlety

For those of you who are fans of a little clitoral magic, but don't fancy broadcasting it throughout the shared digs, we've got just the ticket. We totally get the jitters that come with firing up a rumbly vibrator when flatmates or, heaven forbid, parents are just a wall away. But here's the thing: personal pleasure shouldn't take a back seat for the sake of hushed hallways.

Enter the contactless clit stimulator. Thanks to its crafty air pulse technology, it delivers pinpointed clitoral stimulation without even making contact. The true genius? Its whisper-quiet operation. So hush-hush, you could almost give it a whirl with someone in the next room none the wiser.


If you're the type to mix and match your thrills, many models offer a bit of both worlds. Air pulses for a sly and silent session, and vibrations when you're craving some oomph. Opting for the latter? Here's a cheeky tip: best wait until the house lights are off and the lot's sound asleep.

A compact and portable pocket pussy: stealth and sensations

Lads, if hand gymnastics just isn't cutting it and you're after a solo play that's a bit more... 'oomph', the stroker is your next best mate. It's more than just a toy; it's engineered to deliver mind-bending feels, all while being slyly compact and discreet.


The real win with a stroker is its dinky size, making it a top pick for those in shared living. It's so snug, you can easily tuck it in a drawer or even a gym bag.


Unlike some of the more cumbersome toys out there, this gem is virtually silent, so you can dive into those private moments without the niggling fear of broadcasting it. And when it comes to clean-up? Easy peasy. It's designed for quick and sneaky washes, even in a communal sink.

LOVE Team Tip

For an even smoother ride: don't forget to slide in some water-based lube. It'll add that extra touch of 'real' to your solo sesh, making every moment that bit more thrilling and gratifying.

App-controlled sex toy: get close, even when you're miles apart

Long-distance in your love life? An app-controlled sex toy might just be your new secret weapon.

Picture this: instead of just risqué texts or steamy phone chats, you can now have a more 'hands-on' experience. With these savvy app-controlled toys, your partner can take the reins of your toy right from their smartphone, creating a real-time intimate connection.


It's a fresh and spicy way to keep the spark alive, feel each other's touch, and discover new pleasure horizons, even with oceans between you. With a nifty app and a splash of Wi-Fi, distance gets a bit fuzzy, and boundaries blur, bringing you closer together like never before.

We hope you find the perfect partner-in-crime for those intimate times, one that'll both relax you and ramp up the pleasure. And remember, wherever you are in your quest for the ultimate toy, the LOVE Team's got your back. Questions? Doubts? Or just after a bit of advice? Give us a shout. We're here to help guide the way.
Best of luck with your studies and... happy exploring!
