The Bellesa Nirvana has 5 power levels with subtle jumps between settings. Great for a gradual build.

The top level is mid-powered for a wand, but it’s actually still stronger than my favorite non-wand vibrators. Personally, I don’t use the extreme, upper levels some wands reach very often. So I’m satisfied with the strength of the Bellesa Nirvana’s vibrations…

But not at this price!

If you’re like me and you typically enjoy moderate (but not overwhelming) power – the Dame Com and Magic Wand Mini both have wonderful mid-powered vibrations without costing as much as the Nirvana.

And if you like a lot of power, the Lovense Domi and BMS PalmPower Extreme both reach those immense power levels at a lower price tag. These both have excellent power range with lovely low levels too – so I also enjoy them even when I don’t want crazy strength.

Though not as overwhelming as a few wands like the Magic Wand Plus or PalmPower Extreme, the Viben Sultry has excellent power topping out at 7.3 out of 10 – significantly stronger than any of my non-wand vibrators.

Though it has 8 power levels, it begins with a fair amount of power – I can orgasm easily on any setting. The lowest level is 6.5 out of 10 – already close to its top power of 7.3. There’s nothing really soft.

Normally with a limited power range, I’d need to use a gentler toy to warm up before switching to a powerful wand. But for me, the Sultry just works! Its power range is at my ideal threshold – I find it intense, but comfortable. And I think the main reason it works for me is because of how the vibrations feel: the vibration frequency.

The Bellesa Nirvana’s first two power levels are extremely and moderately rumbly respectively. But that rumbliness is gone on the three highest power levels which feel more neutral.

This may or may not be a positive for you.

We rate wands with more rumbly vibrations higher than neutral or buzzy wands because most people prefer rumbly vibrations. So the Nirvana scores fairly low in this category.

But the choice between buzzy or rumbly vibes is ultimately a personal preference – and many enjoy vibrations near the middle of the spectrum like the Bellesa Nirvana.

If you don’t like your vibrations too far on the rumbly side, you’ll enjoy how the Nirvana feels! But, then I’d still recommend you check out the Lovehoney Mantric Wand instead. The Mantric is practically the same vibrator for about half the cost.

And if you prefer deep, rumbly vibrations: try the Lovense Domi or Dame Com instead. Both have excellent, rumbly vibrations throughout their entire power range!

The Viben Sultry is one of the most rumbly wand vibrators we’ve tested. Its entire power range is on the rumbly side of the spectrum, and it packs excellent strength while remaining rumbly.

The Sultry’s lowest 3 levels are extremely rumbly. This makes the wand’s powerful start feel impactful but not overwhelming. The rumbly vibrations are more widespread and comfortable while traveling deeper through your body.

The top 5 power levels remain moderately rumbly, with just a bit more zing that focuses the vibrations in a tighter area. Only a few other wands reach the Sultry’s top strength of 7.3 or higher (like the Orion Grande) while remaining rumbly.

If you enjoy moderate to strong power and love deep, rumbly vibrations the Viben Sultry will be a good fit.

The Nirvana’s slender, smooth, curved handle and slim head make it a comfortable wand to maneuver and leverage for good pressure. Not to mention it’s completely waterproof and easy to clean!

You may have been drawn to the Nirvana because it’s one of our top performers in this category. But you can find other wands that are just as comfortable, and perform better in other areas – at a lower cost.

I’d recommend the Magic Wand Mini if you want a compact wand. Or the Viben Sultry if you want something longer.

The Viben Sultry is an especially comfortable full-sized wand, but the controls are poor.

It weighs less than other large wands and has a slim, contoured silicone handle that’s very comfy to grip. These features make it easier to maneuver and leverage the Sultry for firm pressure – it doesn’t feel like you’re holding a bulky wand vibrator. The slightly flexible neck also keeps the pressure comfortable without flexing so much that applying pressure becomes difficult.

The tall head provides lovely, broad stimulation. But you can also use the slight lip formed near the top of the head to apply more focused stimulation.

The Sultry’s controls are its only downside. It does not have separate buttons to increase and decrease power. You need to cycle through intensity levels using a single button, and they’re in reverse order (most powerful to least). While this is mildly annoying, the power levels are so close together that I can live with it. It’s still one of the wands I reach for the most.

What’s more frustrating is that if you accidentally press the vibration pattern button, you must cycle through all 19 patterns to return to the constant setting. Simply turning the wand off and back on again does not work because the wand resumes on the same setting. The Maia Nala is a comparably-priced wand with better controls if that’s your priority.

It’s also fully IPX7 waterproof, so it’s quick and easy to clean.

Many of the same features that make the Bellesa Nirvana comfortable and easy to use solo also make it great during sex – the smaller size and curved handle in particular.

The Nirvana performs best in the Spooning position, Modified Missionary, and Cowgirl. Doggystyle is a little trickier since you’re working against gravity and pressing the toy upwards. My arm gets tired because it’s not tall enough to rest the weight of the wand on the bed.

If you want something that works better for all positions, I’d recommend the Lovense Domi 2 or the BMS PalmPower Extreme. These are less expensive than the Bellesa Nirvana.

And they’re all-around better wands!

The Viben Sultry also works well during sex. Its tall head is still relatively slim, so it fits into tight spaces better than other full-sized wands. You also don’t need to position it very precisely because its strong, rumbly vibrations travel deep and feel impactful, even when the head is not placed right near your clit.

Its light weight is even more helpful during sex since you’re more often in positions where you’re holding the wand up, like in Doggystyle or Spooning. So it doesn’t get tiring like heavier wands. Since the Sultry is fairly long, you can also rest the base of its handle on the bed during Doggystyle to further support its weight.

Though the head is firmer than the plush silicone of the Magic Wand Rechargeable or Plus, its flexible neck keeps it comfortable during sex.

If you enjoy the broad, powerful stimulation of full-sized wands, and want something easy to use during sex, this is one of the best options.

The Bellesa Nirvana is fairly quiet in use. It only measures 35dB on low power and high power.

But we also test with my partner listening on the other side of our closed bedroom door while I use the wand in bed. During these tests, he could hear the Nirvana on its middle through high power levels. There’s a slight rattle or some other off-sound that makes it more perceptible.

The Lelo Smart Wand 2 (Large) and Viben Sultry have more power while remaining more discreet. And even the Magic Wand Rechargeable with its enormous vibration strength was only audible at its highest power level.

The Viben Sultry is one of the quietest wands with this much power – it’s a good option for people who want something strong and discreet. From behind a closed door, my partner can easily hear most wand vibrators this strong.

But I can often use the Sultry on its highest power level without my partner hearing it. We have retested this wand multiple times because it’s right on the border between audible and inaudible on its max setting. Some days my partner can just barely discern the sound of the Sultry’s vibrations on high. But the house has to be completely silent, and he has to try hard to listen for it. Other days he can’t hear it at all.

Turning on a box fan in the bedroom will ensure the Viben Sultry can’t be heard on any power level.

For even more discretion, the We-Vibe Wand 2 is better overall and remains inaudible on every setting, but it’s also more expensive.

For a smaller wand, the Bellesa Nirvana has fair attachment compatibility (most wand attachments are designed for full-sized options like the Magic Wand Rechargeable).

The Nirvana’s compatible with the Lovense Domi’s attachments. And these cover a broad range of stimulation: adding texture, or providing penis, G-spot, prostate, or anal stimulation.

If you want a ton of variety, you’ll want to consider a larger wand vibrator.

There are several that score a “10” for wand compatibility on my list, but my favorite is the Magic Wand Rechargeable.

The Viben Sultry’s slim head which makes it comfortable and easy to use during sex limits its compatibility with wand attachments. Some attachments designed for full-sized wands like the Magic Wand Rechargeable also fit the Viben Sultry, while others are too loose.

You can still find compatible attachments for a variety of stimulation including penis, anal, G-spot, prostate, and clitoral. But your selection is more limited. See our full wand attachment compatibility table for information on all the attachments we tested for compatibility.

I test my wands with the Liberator Axis mount and Liberator Wanda mount – these mounts hold your wand so you can enjoy hands-free stimulation. They’re also great if you don’t like holding a vibrator during partnered sex.

The Axis lets you lay on your stomach on top of the mount while it holds the wand between your legs. And the Wanda lets you straddle the mount for stimulation.

The Bellesa Nirvana is very compatible with both of these because of its medium size and curved handle. I’ve found curved wands tend to provide the best pressure and clitoral contact when used with a mount.

But for its price, since the Nirvana underperforms in other areas I’d recommend a cheaper wand – one that scores even higher in this category:

The BMS PalmPower Extreme!

This one’s my favorite wand vibrator to use with a mount. It’s also less expensive and more powerful. It has a slightly wider, angled head that gives excellent clit stimulation with either mount.

I test my wands with Liberator’s wand mounts – the Axis and Wanda. The Sultry works well with both!

The Axis holds the Sultry at a slight upward angle between my legs, as I lie face down along the mount. I can simply lie on the mount and cruise to orgasm solo or have my partner enter me from behind.

Despite its slimmer handle compared to other full-sized wands, the Axis firmly and securely grips the Sultry, preventing any unwanted movement. The Sultry’s tall head provides plenty of surface area for good contact and comfort. With its considerable height, the head applies pressure without requiring me to adjust my body much. Though angled wands like the BMS PalmPower Extreme provide even better contact.

When using the Wanda mount, the Sultry rests upright, allowing me to press against it while kneeling. I find the Sultry’s rounded slim head especially effective in the Wanda. Since it’s slim, I get a bit more focused stimulation, and the subtle rounded shape is very comfortable.

I test battery life by charging all my wands fully – then letting them run continuously on high power until they die. The Nirvana lasted about 105 minutes.

This is plenty of time to play solo or with a partner. But there are several toys at this price point that have longer battery lives. Especially if you know you’re going to forget to charge between uses.
The Magic Wand Mini and Magic Wand Rechargeable, for example, will double your play time!

The Viben Sultry is rechargeable and lasted just over 2 hours continuously running on its max power during our testing. This is above-average performance and will be plenty for most people.

This wand feels very sturdy and the silicone seems high-quality. Overall, it’s pretty well constructed, though it has an occasional rattle sound in the vibrations. It hasn’t affected its performance but may be annoying to some.

This wand feels solid and comfortable! The neck has some flex but doesn’t feel flimsy at all, so I’m not afraid to apply firm pressure. I love the silicone head and handle, which makes for a comfortable hold and feels luxurious.
