The Le Wand Rechargeable has moderate to high-powered vibrations, and it’s surprisingly 9% stronger than the corded Le Wand Plug-In. It has 8 intensity levels, so increasing power is gradual. But it begins already fairly strong – there are no truly gentle levels for when you’re warming up.

And although the Le Wand Rechargeable is strong it has one of the weakest top-power levels for a wand its size. This may not matter to you – many people never use the upper strengths on their wand vibrators. But since it’s priced so high, I’d expect to have the option.

Wands this large and heavy are also more difficult to leverage for good pressure – so more natural power is nice to have. So if you like this size, I would recommend getting a stronger one like the BMS PalmPower Extreme or Magic Wand Plus.

And if you’re really on the hunt for the highest power – the Doxy Die Cast is the strongest wand massager I own.

Each of these also has a softer warmup power level.

The Viben Obsession is significantly stronger than any of my non-wand vibrators, even on its softest setting. 

There are three power levels. The lowest starts at 7.7 out of 10 vibration strength, and it goes up to 8.5 on high. It doesn’t provide any warm-up, which is a bummer because I typically need softer power when I’m starting out. Otherwise, the vibrations feel too overwhelming.

I can only use the Viben Obsession’s lowest power level without feeling irritated. And even then, I need to use it over my clothes.

I find the second and third levels wildly unpleasant. They’re extremely buzzy which feels overwhelming and uncomfortable combined with the immense strength. I’ll talk more about that in the next section.

Many wands have a broader power range than the Viben Obsession – packing extreme power on high, but beginning gentler on low. I prefer these wands like the Lovense Domi, BMS PalmPower Extreme, among others.

We rate rumbly wands higher than buzzy wands since most people prefer rumbliness. But vibration frequency is a personal preference. Consider what you enjoy!

The Le Wand Rechargeable is a buzzy vibrator. But it’s not too far on the buzzy side, so some people will enjoy it.

Only the lowest level falls (just barely) in the moderately rumbly range. Most of its power levels feel buzzy. Even though I enjoy some buzzy vibrators, high-frequency vibrations with this much power feel really uncomfortable to me.

If you want a powerful wand like the Le Wand Rechargeable, most people will prefer something with more rumbliness. Consider a strong, rumbly wand like the Magic Wand Rechargeable, or We-Vibe Wand 2.

We rate wands with rumbly vibrations more highly than those with buzzy vibrations. Most people prefer rumbliness. But, there is definitely variation in peoples’ preferences. 

For example – I really enjoy neutral or moderately buzzy vibrations when they’re moderately powerful (roughly vibration strengths between 4 and 7). But when vibrations are both extremely buzzy and immensely powerful they become unbearable to me.

And that’s the problem with the Viben Obsession – it’s extreme in both power and buzziness. 

It’s one of the few wand vibrators we’ve tested that is already buzzy on its lowest setting! And on high, it’s the buzziest of all our wands. On the second or third power, I don’t even like to touch it to any part of my body. And I definitely don’t want it near my clit!

You can find comparably priced, powerful wands with better rumbliness. Whether that’s extreme rumbliness, like with the Lovense Domi, moderately rumbly like the Viben Sultry, or more neutral  like the BMS PalmPower Extreme. I enjoy each of these wands, and each provides powerful stimulation with deeper, more enjoyable rumbliness.

While very few of my wands, including the Le Wand, are really uncomfortable – I consider this wand one of the more difficult to use.

The main problem is that it’s heavy. And the weight is distributed in a way that makes it feel even heavier than others with a similar weight like the Magic Wand Rechargeable.

The handle is also a little wider than I find comfortable with no contouring to help (like the Viben Sultry has, for instance). So it can grow tiring during long sessions. The mid-sized Le Wand Dive is much easier to grip and maneuver.

I also find the head too firm for my taste. I am ok with a firm head on smaller wands. But the Le Wand Rechargeable’s head is large enough that it bumps against my pubic bone occasionally. And without a squishy head, this can be uncomfortable.

I prefer large wands with plush heads like the Magic Wand Rechargeable or Magic Wand Plus.

Note: The handle material does affect the experience. My Le Wand Rechargeable, which I ordered in “white”, is a shiny, grippier plastic, which sticks to my hand better. I ordered the Le Wand Plug-In in “cream”, which has a matte finish, and this slides in my hand more easily, so it takes more effort to hold. Since you can’t select the exact handle material (only the color), you can contact the manufacturer before purchasing to ensure you get your desired finish if this matters to you.

The Viben Obsession has a comfortable handle that’s relatively narrow for a full-sized wand. People with small hands like me will find its slim, silicone handle comfortable and easy to grip. I also don’t feel any uncomfortable vibrations in my hands as I do with some wands. This surprised me since the Obsession is extremely powerful.

The head is large, which means you can’t fit it into tight areas, but it provides wider stimulation instead. Since the vibrations are so strong, you probably won’t need to position its head in a precise spot – it broadly stimulates the entire area. It’s also lighter than other full-sized wands so maneuvering it is fairly easy.

The head is firm, but the neck is extremely flexible which keeps it comfortable.

The controls are great. They’re easy to feel without looking, but I don’t accidentally press them. And you can both increase or decrease the power, which is necessary since this wand is so strong. You may need to step back down sometimes.

As with general comfort, I also find the Le Wand Rechargeable more difficult to use during sex than other large wands. Mainly due to its weight, firm head, and buzzy vibrations.

It’s tiring to use the Le Wand in positions where you’re holding the wand’s weight up, like Spooning and Doggystyle.

Missionary is the easiest position to hold it in since I’m lying on my back, and the weight adds natural pressure. But the large, rounded head is difficult to fit in tight spots, so I can’t position the head very near to my clit. I feel the vibrations that manage to travel through my body rather than enjoying direct contact like I typically prefer with more buzzy wands like this.

Because the vibrations are buzzy, I also have to press them harder against me to feel them effectively. So I have to leverage this heavy wand even more! Whereas rumbly vibrations naturally travel deeper.

The firm head also bumps into me uncomfortably with a lot of movement during sex. I’d prefer a more plush head. A curved handle or angled head would also help fit this wand’s large head into tight spaces without discomfort.

If you want a powerful wand that’s easy to use during sex, consider the BMS PalmPower Extreme – one of my personal favorites. It’s stronger, lighter, and has a helpful angled head.

In this section, I try to rate how easy it is to use the wand during sex. I consider aspects like whether a wand limits how my partner and I can position our bodies and whether maneuvering the wand and keeping it in contact with my clit during sex is easy. 

I try to compartmentalize how the vibrations themselves feel. But I experience such discomfort from the Viben Obsession’s extremely buzzy vibrations during sex, it’s impossible to separate that component out completely.

With all the movement happening during sex, the Viben Obsession’s wide head bumps into my legs and other areas that I don’t want to be stimulated. And since the vibrations are so powerful and buzzy it feels uncomfortable and distracting.

This is especially the case in positions like Missionary or Spooning where I can’t lean back to create more space for the wand’s head. The Viben Obsession’s firm head also bumps uncomfortably into my pubic bone in Cowgirl.

The Obsession’s vibrations seem to feel more diffuse in Doggystyle, and I’m able to enjoy the lowest power level a bit. And the Viben Obsession has a long enough handle that I can support its weight by resting the wand’s base on the bed. So my arms don’t get tired using it in this position.

Unfortunately, the Le Wand is one of my loudest wands. And you can’t simply keep the power low to be discreet. The lowest level is almost as loud as the highest setting!

When my partner sits on the other side of our bedroom door, he can hear me using the Le Wand Rechargeable on all power levels. However, turning on a fan or music does drown it out.

But there are definitely quieter options if sound is a priority. The Magic Wand Rechargeable and especially the We-Vibe Wand 2 are powerful wand massagers with more discreet sound levels.

The Viben Obsession is my loudest wand vibrator. I find its noise distracting, and it’s certainly not discreet. 

My partner can hear it from the other side of our closed bedroom door on all power levels. And it’s the only wand that was not drowned out by playing music in the bedroom. My partner could still hear it on the other side of the door! 
The Viben Sultry and Magic Wand Rechargeable are comparably powerful, but much quieter (and more rumbly too!)

The Le Wand Rechargeable is compatible with a large variety of wand attachments.

Le Wand has several attachments designed specifically for this wand. And since the head size is close enough to the full-sized Magic Wands, it’s also compatible with attachments designed for them.

Whatever stimulation you’re looking for (G-spot, anal, penis, dual-stimulation, etc.), you can find an attachment that fits the Le Wand Rechargeable.

But since the Magic Wand Rechargeable and Magic Wand Plus have the same attachment compatibility and outperform the Le Wand in other areas, I’d consider one of them instead.

The Viben Obsession has excellent compatibility with wand attachments. As a full-sized wand, the majority of attachments are designed for heads this size.

There are compatible attachments for a range of stimulation including G-spot, prostate, anal, penis, clitoral, and dual-stimulation. Below are the wand attachments we’ve tested for compatibility with the Viben Obsession.

The Le Wand Rechargeable works fairly well with wand mounts for hands-free stimulation! The two mounts I test my wands with are the Liberator Axis and Wanda.

Of the two, the Le Wand works better with the Axis mount. With this wand mount, you lie across it on your stomach, and the Axis holds the wand to your clit at a slight upward angle. It gives effortless clit stimulation in a relaxing position. But better yet, you can enjoy the vibes during sex with your partner penetrating from behind.

The Le Wand’s larger handle keeps this wand in place well. And the tall, broad head provides lots of surface area to receive clit stimulation from. So the Le Wand stays in great contact with my clit and provides good pressure. The only wands I like better with this mount are angled or have a curved handle – like the BMS Palmpower Extreme or Dame Com.

Le Wand Rechargeable is trickier with the Wanda mount. This mount holds the more upright. Then you straddle the mount as it holds the wand to your clit.

The Le Wand is slightly taller than I’d like for the Wanda – I can’t rest my weight down on it. If you’re taller than me, it may work better for you. I’m 5’4” for reference.

In general, I find slightly shorter wands like the BMS PalmPower Extreme easier to use with the Liberator Wanda mount.

I test my wands with the Liberator Wanda and Axis mounts which hold your wand so you can play hands-free. The Viben Obsession fits well with both mounts. 

The Axis works best lying on your stomach while the mount holds the wand between your legs. The Viben Obsession’s head rests in a good position for clit stimulation, sticking out just past the fabric. 

In the Axis, I prefer wands with an upward curve or angle like with the BMS PalmPower Extreme which put a little more pressure on my clit. But since the Viben Obsession’s power and buzziness are so intense, I’m happy to have slightly less contact with my clit.

The Wanda mount also holds the Obsession in a good position. I can comfortably straddle the mount while keeping the head in contact with my clit. The broad head provides plenty of surface area to lean against. And the flexible neck is comfortable when I press my weight back on it.

Battery life is where the Le Wand Rechargeable really crushed it. It has one of the longest battery lives of any of my rechargeable wands at 224 minutes on high power. And you can use it while plugged in (a rare feature for rechargeable wands), so you don’t need to wait for the battery to charge.

That being said – I don’t think a long battery life is reason enough to justify the high price of this wand. And there are several other high-powered wands that will provide 2+ hours of play easily, including the Magic Wand Rechargeable (which you can also use while plugged in) and We-Vibe Wand 2.

The Viben Obsession lasts around 65 minutes on high power, which is shorter than other comparably strong wands. You’ll have to be vigilant about charging between uses.

If you tend to forget to charge your wand like me, you might want something with a longer battery life, like the Magic Wand Rechargeable. 

The plastic handle of the Le Wand Rechargeable feels much thicker and more sturdy than the handle of the Petite. The neck is thick and strong, so I’m not worried about applying firm pressure.

Compared to the Magic Wand, the Le Wand’s firm silicone head is not as high-quality and the buttons are not as comfortable to use. But it’s still a well-built and solid wand.

The Viben Obsession’s construction is decent overall. The buttons feel a little clicky. And the neck feels somewhat flimsy and makes a weird noise when I apply pressure. This makes me more cautious to press the Obsession as firmly as other wands. 

Other than that, the silicone and construction quality feels good.
