The Le Wand Petite’s top vibration strength is below half the power of my strongest wands. It’s still enough for me to orgasm with. But its overall strength is closer to my non-wand vibrators, like the Lelo Mona, than it is to my large wands.

This isn’t necessarily bad – many people will be happy with this level of power. I rarely use the upper settings on my strongest wands anyway. But for the price of the Le Wand Petite, I’d expect more power.

For example, the Magic Wand Mini has a touch more vibration power, and is around $50 cheaper. And Magic Wand is the most respected brand for wand vibrators.

Or if you’re looking for immense power, the BMS PalmPower Extreme and Magic Wand Plus are twice as strong as the Le Wand Petite – and each is less expensive.

Something I like about the Le Wand Petite is that it offers both soft, lower levels and stronger, upper levels with small increments in between. Its low levels are comfortably gentle, and there are 10 intensity levels before you reach its maximum power. So you can enjoy light stimulation when you need softer vibrations and gradually increase strength.

But overall, the vibration power and range is simply mediocre for how expensive the wand is. This has been my experience with Le Wand’s products generally. I also tested the Le Wand Baton and Le Wand Grand bullet vibrators, and found them to be underpowered for their price too.

The Fun Factory Vim has an excellent power range that starts gently and reaches extreme strength on high.

Although there are even more powerful wands, I consider the Vim’s top strength of 7.3 out of 10 extremely intense and more than enough for me. I rarely use the top levels because the first few settings provide plenty of stimulation. It’s especially strong, considering how rumbly the Vim is – most wands that reach this strength become buzzy.

The Fun Factory Vim’s 5 preset power levels provide a gradual journey from gentle to intense. The initial strength of 1.7 out of 10 provides an enjoyable warmup without overstimulating. And steps from one setting to the next are comfortably small.

You can make the transitions even more subtle by holding down the (+) or (-) buttons. This slowly increases or decreases the motor’s power until you release the button. It allows you to access intermediate power levels beyond the Fun Factory Vim’s 5 predetermined settings. Holding the (-) button also allows you to reach an even gentler starting level.

Because the Fun Factory Vim’s power range is wide and gradual, you’ll likely find settings that suit you. The only people who might not be satisfied with the Vim’s power range are those who want as much intensity as possible. If that’s you, consider the Doxy Die Cast or BMS PalmPower Extreme, but most people will not need more power than the Vim offers.

When we rate wands, we award higher scores to those with rumbly (low-frequency) vibrations and lower scores to those with buzzy (high-frequency) vibrations. But there are plenty of people who enjoy buzzy vibrations from time to time. Including me! So consider your own preferences during this discussion.

The Le Wand Petite starts out extremely rumbly on its lowest powers. But since these levels are pretty soft, most people will only use them briefly. And as the power increases, it quickly becomes less rumbly.

All the power levels with substantial power are in the neutral range – neither rumbly nor buzzy.

This may work well for you – I personally enjoy neutral vibrations too. However, even if you like vibrations in this part of the spectrum there are better options available.

The FemmeFunn Ultra Wand is a cheaper option with moderately rumbly to neutral vibrations and stronger power. Or the BMS PalmPower Extreme has rumbly lower power levels, neutral high power levels, and substantially more vibration strength.

If you prefer those deep, rumbly vibrations, consider the Lovense Domi 2 if you like high power, or the Dame Com if you enjoy moderate strength.

We rate wands with rumbly vibrations higher than those with buzzy ones because it’s what most people prefer. Rumbly vibrations travel deeper and impact the entire area. But some people like buzzy vibrations that stay near the surface, so consider your preferences!

The Fun Factory Vim has outstanding rumbliness. The heavy weight in its motor creates impactful vibrations without needing to spin as fast as a lighter motor (slower speeds feel more rumbly, and faster speeds feel buzzier).

It reaches a deeper, more rumbly level on its lowest setting than any of my other wands. The first 4 of 5 settings are extremely rumbly. And even the highest power is still moderately rumbly. Most wand vibrators that reach a comparable strength are buzzier.

The Fun Factory Vim is my main wand vibrator recommendation for those who value rumbly vibrations. Although the Lelo Smart Wand 2 and Orion Grande Wand have even lower-frequency vibrations than the Fun Factory Vim, they’re worse wands overall.

If you’re familiar with the We-Vibe Tango X, a small bullet vibrator famous for being super rumbly – the Fun Factory Vim is even more rumbly, while being much stronger!

I also find the Vim’s extreme rumbliness feels particularly enjoyable with my Liberator Axis mount for hands-free stimulation during sex.

The Le Wand Petite is quite comfortable and easy to use. I have no complaints about the Le Wand Petite in this area.

The head is a little firmer than I usually prefer, but its smaller size means I can comfortably fit and press it into tighter spaces. And it’s pretty easy to leverage for nice, firm pressure.

The buttons are easy to press and provide all the necessary functionality for a positive experience. There are separate buttons to increase and decrease power. So you don’t need to cycle through power levels. And a third button controls pattern selection.

But there are many wands that are just as comfortable and easy to use while costing less. So if this is important to you, check out some of the other wands that score an 8 or higher.

The Fun Factory Vim is very comfortable and extremely easy to use, especially for a full-sized wand vibrator.

Although the Vim’s motor is heavy, the overall weight is lighter than most full-sized wands, making it easier to maneuver. The fact that most of the weight is in the Vim’s head helps it naturally press the vibes deeper without needing to leverage the wand as much with your wrists.

The Vim’s handle is slim and covered with a slightly plush, textured silicone, providing a comfortable grip. The Vim’s silicone feels especially luxurious. And the vibrations are not at all distracting in my hands – they travel less into the handle than many other wands this powerful.

The head is fairly firm, which can feel less comfortable when pressing against less fleshy areas (like your pubic bone). But the Vim’s flexible neck helps keep it comfortable despite its firmness. And the wide head (2.4 inches) spreads the contact comfortably over a broad surface area.

The Fun Factory Vim’s controls are excellent and easy to use too.

It turns on and off with a simple press of the button (no need to hold it down like several wands require). But more importantly, it has separate buttons to increase and decrease power. You do not have to cycle through all the settings to return to a previous strength. And if you want more gradual increments between intensity levels, you can hold the (+) or (-) button to change the power slowly.

The only thing that could improve its controls is an additional button to move through the vibration patterns. You change vibration patterns by using the (+) and (-) buttons. Once you’ve reached the top strength, clicking the (+) button again will move you into the vibration patterns. You cannot alter the pattern’s strength since you use the (+) and (-) buttons to change vibration patterns. This is not a big concern since most people rarely use vibration patterns.

You can also use the Fun Factory Vim’s travel lock to keep it from accidentally turning on in storage. Just press and hold the “Fun” and “-” buttons together for 2 seconds to lock it. Hold “Fun” and “+” to unlock.

The Le Wand Petite is also enjoyable during sex.

The smaller handle and head take up minimal space and don’t get in the way. It’s easy to fit the Le Wand Petite between your bodies.

However, since the head is more firm I find it occasionally bumps uncomfortably into my pubic bone in positions where my partner and I are facing each other – like Missionary and Cowgirl.

So I prefer it in positions from behind like Spooning or Doggystyle where this is not an issue.

The Magic Wand Mini is similar in size to the Le Wand Petite, but it has a squishier head that I find more comfortable. I prefer it during sex over the Le Wand Petite. Or if you want an even smaller head for those extra-tight spaces, the Lovense Domi is excellent!

Either option is better during sex than the Le Wand Petite at a lower cost, so I don’t see a compelling reason to consider the Petite during partnered sex.

The Fun Factory Vim works great during sex. Though it’s larger than I typically prefer during sex, the Vim’s rumbliness allows the vibrations to travel deep into my body in an effective way that’s not overstimulating.

So even though I can’t fit the Vim’s head directly near my clit in face-to-face positions where space is limited, the vibrations are still effective because they travel to my clit anyway!

Spooning and Doggystyle positions with the Vim are awesome! The head comfortably distributes pressure and vibrations, and I can grip the handle at multiple points along the handle for excellent leverage. The long handle is especially useful because you can prop it on the bed in these positions if your arm gets tired.

When we tested the Le Wand Petite’s decibel levels, it measured slightly louder than other wands with comparable power.

In practical use, I can use the mid and lower power levels without my partner hearing from the other side of a closed bedroom door. But he can hear the upper levels. So if you’re trying to avoid being overheard, sticking to lower powers will help. Turning on a fan or music in the bedroom also masked the sound of the Le Wand Petite.

If you want something more discreet, there are several quieter wand vibrators with comparable or greater power. Some of my favorites are the Viben Sultry (budget-friendly) or We-Vibe Wand 2 (better but more expensive).

The Fun Factory Vim has excellent noise levels. It’s the best option for those looking to balance power and discretion. Only weaker wand vibrators are quieter than the Fun Factory Vim.

For a wand this powerful, the decibel readings were especially low.

And during our testing, I could use most of the power settings in the bedroom without my partner being able to hear from the other side of the door. My partner could only hear the top level. And even then, my partner noted that he could barely make out the Vim’s sound. The vibrations are so deep that they’re unnoticeable unless you’re trying to listen for it.

Turning on a box fan easily masks the noise if you’re worried.

Since the vibrations are so rumbly, they have an excellent, deep sound that isn’t distracting. So, if you’re easily annoyed by noise, the Vim is a great choice!

For a mid-sized wand, the Le Wand Petite has great attachment compatibility.

Le Wand designed several high-quality attachments specifically for the Le Wand Petite. These attachments provide G-spot, prostate, anal, or dual-stimulation. Or they can add textured clit stimulation.

The Lovense Domi’s attachments also fit the Le Wand Petite – this adds the option for penis stimulation.

But keep in mind, the Le Wand Petite’s attachments also fit other mid-sized wands like the Magic Wand Mini. So you can still consider other wands if you want to use the Petite’s attachments.

The Fun Factory Vim has fantastic compatibility with wand attachments. Most attachments are designed for wands with a full-sized head like the Fun Factory Vim.

You can find compatible attachments for various stimulation, including clitoral, G-spot, penis, prostate, and dual-stimulation. You can see all the attachments I’ve tested for compatibility with the Fun Factory Vim here.

I test my wand vibrators with Liberator’s wand mounts: the Axis and Wanda. These hold your wand for you so you can enjoy hands-free stimulation.

The Le Wand Petite gives excellent clit stimulation when placed in the Liberator Wanda mount. I find mid-sized wands like the Le Wand Petite rest at the best height in this mount. It’s easy to straddle the mount and keep the Petite in good contact with my clit. And I can easily lean forward to create more space for penetration while keeping the Petite on my clit.

The Le Wand Petite works decently with the Liberator Axis, but it takes some extra effort to get quality contact and pressure from the wand. With the Axis, it’s easiest to lie on your stomach over the top of the mount. It holds the wand angled out to the side at a slight upward angle between your legs.

I find angled or curved wands are best with the Axis because it places the head of the wand closer to where your clit is naturally positioned. Since the Le Wand Petite has a straight handle, it’s not quite as effortless as wands like the BMS PalmPower Extreme or Dame Com (two of my favorite wands to use with mounts).

The Fun Factory Vim has outstanding compatibility with Liberator’s wand mounts for hands-free play. I test all my wands with the Liberator Axis and Wanda mounts. Both work very well with the Vim.

The Axis holds your wand while you lie across the mount on your stomach. I like using the Axis to hold my wand to my clit during sex while my partner penetrates from behind. The Axis grips the Vim’s handle firmly, keeping it securely in place.

And although curved or angled wands (like the BMS PalmPower Extreme) contact my clit more firmly, the Vim still maintains great clitoral contact and stimulates well. At 2.4 inches, the Vim’s head is one of the widest, which helps it reach my clit easily. And the exceptional rumbliness is a huge bonus during hands-free use. The rumbly vibrations travel deep and stimulate my clit even if the head is positioned away from my clit.

The Fun Factory Vim works even better with the Liberator Wanda because you have more variety. If you press the handle down far enough, you can enjoy the vibrations while fully sitting on the Wanda mount, which I love during alone time. Or you can position it farther up in the mount and straddle it on your hands and knees, which works great for hands-free stimulation during penetration from behind with a partner.

This wand has a decent battery life. During our testing, it lasted 105 minutes continuously vibrating at its highest power. There is also a Plug-In version with nearly identical performance.

But for the price, there are many options with comparable or better performance – including more powerful toys that last longer on high power. For instance, the Magic Wand Rechargeable is one of the most powerful wand vibrators and lasts over 4 hours on high.

The Fun Factory Vim is rechargeable and has good battery life. During our testing, it lasted about an hour and a half, continuously vibrating on its maximum power. Since it’s such a powerful wand, it’s also likely that you’ll use its lower and middle levels quite a bit. So your actual runtime will likely be longer.

The construction of the Le Wand Petite feels pretty well-made. The head feels durable and firm. The handle looks metallic, but it’s actually a thin plastic that feels a little cheap, but helps keep the wand from being too heavy.

The Fun Factory Vim has outstanding build quality and feels exceptionally luxurious. The silicone is slightly plush, grippy, and textured – all of which feel comfortable and luxurious.

The solid weight of the motor makes it feel durable. The head is also heavier than the handle, so it naturally tips the wand down at the angle you want. The Vim seems very solid, and the flexibility in the neck is the perfect amount to keep it comfortable without feeling like it will break when I press firmly.
