The Lovehoney Deluxe Plug-in wand has moderate vibration power – stronger than most mini wands, but softer than most full-sized wands, maxing out at 6.7 out of 10. It’s certainly more powerful than any non-wand vibrator I own, but it’s not extreme. It can be a good option for those who enjoy a nice kick of power but don’t want anything too overwhelming.

It also provides plenty of power range – beginning softly at a 1.9 of 10 and working gradually in small steps through 10 levels up to its highest power. Most large wands have between 4 and 8 power levels, so the Lovehoney Deluxe’s 10 settings provide more subtle steps between levels than other wands.

I personally only need level 5 or 6 to orgasm, so unless you need something very intense, you’ll likely be happy with this wand’s power range. But if you want the extreme strength full-sized wands are famous for, others like the BMS PalmPower Extreme or Magic Wand Plus will suit you better.

The Magic Wand Plus is my second-most powerful wand, reaching a 9 out of 10 on its top level. Only the Doxy Die Cast reaches a higher strength than the Magic Wand Plus. But the Doxy is more than double the cost, and it’s buzzier.

Priced under $100, the Magic Wand Plus is the most budget-friendly option for people who want immense power. It’s just as strong as the much pricier Magic Wand Waterproof, making it a better value for most people.

Its 4 power levels also provide a broad range of intensities. It has softer levels as a warmup or for people who don’t need extreme strength. I rate the lowest power at 1.9 out of 10 and the second level at 6.1 out of 10.

Personally, I rarely use the third or fourth settings because the first two are enough for me – I can orgasm from either level. I think many people will be happy with just these. And if you venture into the upper settings, you may want to try them over your clothes – they are intense! Even on the second power, I often use the Magic Wand Plus over my underwear.

We rate wands with rumbly vibrations higher than buzzy ones because most people tend to prefer them. However, preferences vary and some people enjoy neutral or even buzzy vibrations more – the Lovehoney plug-in wand is best for these people.

Although its first four settings are rumbly, the higher settings range from neutral to moderately buzzy. Many people will need its middle or upper levels to orgasm so you’ll likely spend a lot of time on the neutral-feeling or buzzy settings.

While I personally prefer more rumbly wands, I still enjoy this wand’s vibrations since they are not overly powerful or extremely buzzy. The buzziness is not overwhelming like other wands, such as the Viben Obsession. The Lovehoney wand will be in the sweet spot for some people. But the majority of people will prefer something more rumbly like the Magic Wand Rechargeable or PalmPower Extreme.

Because most people prefer rumbly wands, we rate these higher than buzzy wands.

The Magic Wand Plus’s first two power levels are extremely rumbly. These low-frequency vibrations feel deep and impactful. And since the wand is so powerful, many people will primarily use these lower two levels.

Power level 2 packs excellent strength, while remaining deep and low-frequency. This rumbly quality of the vibrations prevents them from feeling overwhelming, ticklish, or numbing. That second setting is my favorite, and it’s the one I orgasm with most frequently.

The third level feels neutral – neither rumbly nor buzzy.

Only the highest power (9.0 out of 10) begins to feel buzzy. No wand I’ve tested yet has remained rumbly when its power increases beyond 8.0 out of 10. The BMS PalmPower Extreme is the only wand with comparable strength that stays in the neutral range on its top power – but the difference is minimal.

Most people will be happy with the Magic Wand Plus’s balance between extreme strength and rumbliness.

This wand is larger, which can make it more challenging to maneuver due to its weight and bulkiness. Even compared to other full-sized wands it’s longer with a larger head. The wide handle also requires more effort to grip firmly compared to slimmer handles.

However, the weight can also feel good, as it provides natural pressure and does some of the work for you. Larger wands like this offer diffuse, broad stimulation. While some, like the Magic Wand Rechargeable, have a cylindrical head with a lip that provides more focused stimulation when you’d like, the Lovehoney Plug-in Wand has a very round shape, providing broad stimulation only.

The buttons on this wand are easy to feel and use. You don’t need to cycle through intensity levels, as it has separate buttons to increase and decrease power.

The Magic Wand Plus is a great fit for those who want a comfortable full-sized wand. It has a wide, tall head, which diffuses the intense power comfortably over a broad area.

Full-sized wands like the Magic Wand Plus are more difficult to maneuver quickly or fit into tight spaces than compact wands like the Lovense Domi or Magic Wand Mini. But because this wand has such powerful, deep vibrations I don’t need to position it with precision. The Magic Wand Plus’s rumbly vibes impact the entire vicinity around the head!

I also love how plush the head is!

It’s firm enough that I can still apply substantial pressure, but soft enough that it’s completely comfortable against my body. It doesn’t bump uncomfortably into my pubic bone as really firm wands like the Satisfyer Wand-er Woman do.

When the Magic Wand Plus is on its lowest power, you can feel the vibrations in your hands. But they’re so rumbly that it doesn’t feel uncomfortable or distracting. And it does a great job of dampening the handle vibrations on higher powers.

The Magic Wand Plus is not waterproof, so it’s best to wash down the head with a warm, soapy cloth. But since there are no tricky grooves on the head, it’s still easy to clean. There is a waterproof version, the Magic Wand Waterproof, but it’s much more expensive, so the Plus is a better value unless you really value waterproof play.

The Plus’s silicone buttons are comfortable and easy to press without moving my hands. But most importantly, there are separate buttons to increase or decrease the power. Some wands make you cycle through intensity levels with a single button. When toys have this much power, I like to be able to step back down easily.

This wand’s large size makes it tricky to use during sex. It has the biggest head of any wand we’ve tested, even though it’s not more powerful than similar wands. 

The bulky head requires you to spread your legs fairly wide to fit the wand near your clit. In most positions, my partner and I need to be aware of our body placement and adjust to accommodate the wand’s size.

And since its vibrations aren’t extremely rumbly nor extra powerful, I need to fit the head pretty near to my clit. Whereas stronger, more rumbly full-sized wands like the Magic Wand Rechargeable can effectively stimulate my clit indirectly. So precise placement isn’t as necessary.

The wand’s head is quite firm with minimal flexibility, causing uncomfortable pressure on my pubic area during sex. Additionally, the wand is heavy and corded, making it somewhat tiring to hold in place and maneuver around the cord. A smaller, rechargeable option like the Lovense Domi is much easier to handle and move.

The Magic Wand Plus is one of my favorite full-sized wands to use during sex – though I also enjoy the cordless convenience of the (slightly less powerful) Magic Wand Rechargeable.

I particularly enjoy the Plus in the spooning position and a modified missionary position (lying on my back with my partner kneeling).

The full length of the wand has the space it needs for me to angle and leverage the handle in these positions – I like to really push my vibes deeper (which is why I need a sturdy wand). And the plush head maintains comfortable, easy, consistent contact with my clit.

I move a lot more in Cowgirl, so I notice the weight and bulk of the Magic Wand Plus more in this position. The size is a little harder to control with more movement (especially compared to small wands like the Magic Wand Mini or Lovense Domi), but it’s still manageable. Plus, the sheer strength the Magic Wand Plus cranks out means you don’t need to position the wand in a precise spot to feel its effects.

Doggystyle is the trickiest position for the Magic Wand Plus because you’re working against gravity to hold the wand up between your legs. But I’ve found that I can place the base of the handle on the bed to support some of the weight and give my arm a rest (though this works even better with the Rechargeable since the base doesn’t have a cord in the way).

Overall, it’s a great option during sex – especially for those who want the immense power of a full-sized wand.

Even though the Lovehoney Plug-in wand is not extremely powerful, it is audible on every power level when I’m using it behind a closed bedroom door. You can turn on a box fan or music to mask the noise. But there are certainly more discreet options with greater power including the Magic Wand Rechargeable and the Viben Sultry.

To test a wand’s discretion, I use the wand in our bedroom while my partner stands directly on the other side of the door to see whether he can hear it.

The Magic Wand Plus is not audible behind a closed door on its lowest power level. But with no other sounds in our house, he can hear the top three settings. In fact, all three of my strongest wands are only inaudible at their low levels.

We also test whether turning on a box fan or music in the bedroom drowns out each wand’s noise. Either option successfully masked all the Magic Wand Plus’s power levels.

So if you have housemates, you’ll want to grab a box fan or turn up some jams.

The Lovehoney Deluxe Plug-in Wand is compatible with a wide variety of wand attachments. Its head is close in size to the Magic Wand brand, so attachments designed for those wands also fit the Lovehoney wand.

You can find compatible attachments for many kinds of stimulation including penis, G-spot, anal, prostate, clitoral, and dual-stimulation. See our full wand attachment compatibility table for all wands and attachments we’ve tested.

Because Magic Wand is the most well-known wand massager brand, the majority of wand attachments are designed for the Magic Wand Plus. So this wand (and others close in size) have the greatest compatibility.

You can find a compatible attachment for a broad variety of stimulation – penis, clitoral, G-spot, anal, prostate, and dual-stimulation. For more specifics, you can check our wand attachment compatibility table here.

I test my wands using Liberator mounts for hands-free stimulation – the Axis and Wanda.

With the Axis, the wand’s head is large enough to reach my clit and provide good stimulation. However, the head is very firm, and there is a sharp ridge at the top of the handle, making it uncomfortable when I press my body more firmly against the head for additional pressure.

But when resting normally, the broad head provides a comfortable, diffuse surface. And the handle size keeps the wand held firmly in place in the mount.

The Wanda mount holds the wand in a mostly upright position, allowing you to kneel above it or rest on your hands and knees. The head is positioned at an ideal height for easy clitoral contact. Again, I wish the head were softer for better comfort. But as long as you don’t press too firmly, it remains comfortable.

I test my wands with the Liberator Axis and Wanda mounts for hands-free stimulation.

The Magic Wand Plus is excellent in the Axis mount. I insert the wand and lie on my stomach over the top of the wedge. The Axis holds the wand out at a slight upward angle between my legs. I can just rest lying on the mount and enjoy a hands-free orgasm. Or my partner can easily enter from behind.

When placed in the Axis, the Magic Wand Plus’s tall, broad head maintains much better contact and pressure with my clit than narrower wands. And the squishy texture keeps the wand comfy – the extra comfort is helpful since you don’t have as fine-tuned control over positioning the head when using it hands-free. And since the Plus’s vibrations are extremely powerful, you get excellent clit stimulation without needing to position the wand in a precise spot.

The Wanda holds the Magic Wand Plus in a nearly upright position. You can rest on your elbows and knees (in a sort of Doggystyle position) and get hands-free stimulation solo or during sex.

Again, the wide, plush head provides a comfortable, broad surface to lean your weight on. And with taller wands like this, you don’t have to spread your legs as wide to keep your clit in contact with the wand’s head. So it’s comfortable to hold this position longer.

Some shorter wands also allow you to straddle and sit on the mount, leaning backward or forward into the vibrations for stimulation. The Magic Wand Plus is too tall to straddle like this, but it performs really well in the Doggystyle position.

This wand is a plug-in wand, which comes with its own set of advantages and disadvantages. You’ll never reach for your wand and realize you forgot to charge it. It’s always ready to go. But you need to play near an outlet. Though the cord is 2.4 meters (~8 feet) long so there’s plenty of room. Some people will not enjoy having to position a cord out of their way – others aren’t bothered by it.

The Magic Wand Plus is a plug-in wand (most of the strongest ones are). So you don’t have to worry about running out of battery, but you’ll need to play near an outlet. The Plus’s cord is 6 feet long though, so it’s not very restrictive.

You can also remove the Magic Wand Plus’s cord which makes storing it easier – this is the only plug-in wand I have with this feature. As someone who loves organization, I find this really convenient. If you prefer a rechargeable wand, the Rechargeable and Waterproof versions are cord-free, but pricier.

The plastic handle of this wand feels well-constructed and sturdy. The neck has a good thickness to it, so I’m not ever worried I’ll break it if I apply firm pressure. 

The buttons are not quite as comfortable as other wands, and the firm silicone head does not feel as high-quality as the plush silicone of the Magic Wand Rechargeable and others. But overall, it’s a well-built wand.

The Magic Wand Plus is made from quality materials and feels built to last. The older Magic Wand Original had a porous head that could not be sanitized. But the upgraded Magic Wand Plus has a body-safe, silicone head. The silicone is plush and extremely comfortable. And the Magic Wand Plus’s hard plastic handle feels sturdy and durable.

The neck is slightly flexible, but solid. I can comfortably apply firm pressure without feeling like I may damage the wand. The silicone buttons are positioned well along the handle and are always responsive.
