The Lovehoney Mantric is best if you like the size, shape, and broad stimulation that wand vibrators provide, but you prefer mild to moderate vibration strength.

It starts out gentle and gradually builds power. The 5 intensity levels are enough that there are no large leaps and it covers a good range with both low and moderate power levels.

Though the Mantric wand’s full strength is less than half the power of my strongest wand vibrator (the Doxy Die Cast), it’s still more powerful than my non-wand vibrators like bullets, rabbits, and G-spot vibes.

I still orgasm easily with the Mantric wand. 

It’s just not engulfing me with sheer power as full-sized wand vibrators do. It fills a unique niche of having comparable power to smaller vibrators while providing a longer handle for easier maneuvering and a broader head to spread the vibrations. 

So if you enjoy mid-strength and want broader stimulation, the Mantric can be a good choice.

If you enjoy wands for their extreme power, the larger Magic Wand Plus has exceptional strength in a similar price range. Or for intense power in a compact size, the Lovense Domi 2 is one of my favorites. 

The Blush Lush Gia has a really enjoyable power range for the price – as long as it’s on sale for under $50. It has power levels similar to one of my favorite premium wands, the Magic Wand Mini, but at a lower price.

The wand end begins softly at a 1.7 out of 10 strength. I enjoy this warm-up level – it’s comfortable and helps me get in the mood without feeling overstimulated.

There are three power levels, maxing out at 4.7 out of 10 vibration strength. This is still slightly stronger than what you’d experience from a typical non-wand vibrator. It’s plenty of power for me to orgasm easily and reliably.

Those seeking a budget wand for more extreme power will be happier with the Orion Your New Favorite Wand, which reaches a 6.7 out of 10. Anything more powerful will require increasing your budget.

The Blush Lush Gia’s G-spot end is less intense but still enjoyable. Its strength is more comparable to a mini or bullet vibrator. But it’s more impactful than the other dual-ended wand we’ve tested (the Maia Zoe). So for those looking for a combination wand, the Blush Lush Gia’s power makes it a better choice.

A higher performance score in this category reflects a “more rumbly” wand – not necessarily a better or worse wand vibrator.

We rate more rumbly wands higher because a rumbly feel is what most people enjoy. However, the choice between buzzy or rumbly vibrations is a personal preference. And I actually really love a buzzy vibe from time to time.

The Mantric’s first two power levels are extremely rumbly. Then the next level is moderately rumbly. And its two highest powers are neutral – or a mix between rumbly and buzzy.

If you prefer deep rumbly vibrations, then the Mantric wand is probably not the best option for you. Since this is a mid-powered wand, you’ll likely use its highest powers often. And you won’t get that low-frequency, rumbly feel from its top levels.

The Lovense Domi is a similarly-sized wand that is much more rumbly (and stronger too). 90% of the Domi’s intensity levels fall within the “extremely rumbly” range.

If you prefer toys with a mixed feel – not too far on either the rumbly or buzzy side – you’ll enjoy the Mantric wand vibrator.

We rate wands with rumbly vibrations higher than buzzy ones because most people prefer it. But preferences vary, so consider what you enjoy!

The Blush Lush Gia is not exceptionally rumbly, so if that’s your main priority, the Gia is not for you. However, its vibration levels span a versatile range with some rumbly and some buzzy levels.

The wand end’s first setting is impactful and rumbly. Then the middle and top levels feel neutral and moderately buzzy. Since I enjoy neutral and even buzzy vibrations (as long as they’re not overwhelmingly powerful), I really like the Gia. And if you’re unsure what frequency you want, the Lush Gia provides a range of options to experiment with and learn what you enjoy!

The Blush Lush Gia’s G-spot end ranges from neutral to extremely buzzy. I like more rumbly vibrations on my G-spot, so I don’t use the Gia internally often. But it’s still enjoyable and is my best dual-ended option.
If rumbliness is your priority, the Satisfyer Wand-er Woman is slightly more expensive – but it’s the cheapest wand with exceptional rumbliness.

The Mantric wand vibrator is one of the most comfortable and easy-to-use wands I own. 

The slim handle is very comfortable to hold. And the gentle curve helps you easily leverage the wand to press the vibes firmly to your body. 

The head has a smaller circumference, which is great for more direct/focused stimulation than you can get with larger wands. But you can still press the side of the Mantric’s head to your body for broader vibrations. 

The head is not squishy, but the neck has a slight flex to it, which makes it very comfortable without making it more difficult to apply pressure.

The main reason it does not score even higher is that I don’t love the Mantric’s buttons. 

To achieve a more sleek look, the three buttons are gently raised bumps along the silicone handle, almost blending in with the wand. I find this design makes it more difficult to press the buttons without looking, and I occasionally press them accidentally if I’m not conscious of my grip on the wand. 

More importantly, the middle button is not always responsive if I don’t apply the right pressure. Though once you get used to the feel, it’s not much of an issue.

If you want no distractions or a learning curve, I find the Magic Wand Mini is another comfortable alternative with a similar size and weight. But the buttons are a little easier to feel, and I don’t find myself pressing them by accident.

But the Magic Wand Mini is not waterproof or splashproof. So if that’s your goal, try the FemmeFun Ultra Wand or stick with the Mantric!

The Mantric wand is waterproof, so it’s easy to clean. And this also means you can take it into the tub or shower with you. 

The Blush Lush Gia is very comfortable and easy to use, although its controls are basic.

One of my favorite things about it is the curved handle, which makes it very easy to leverage without tiring your wrist. You can feel the vibrations in your hand when the wand end is on high power, but I don’t find it distracting. And the handle width and curve provide a comfortable grip.

The small head (1.6 inches wide) fits easily between your legs for direct or indirect clit stimulation. And the flexible neck makes it great for those who enjoy firm pressure. The moderate flexibility keeps the pressure comfortable but does not detract from the amount of pressure you can apply.

Each motor has its own button to cycle through that motor’s 3 power levels and 4 patterns. I prefer a control system with separate buttons to increase and decrease strength. But there are only a few patterns, so cycling through them isn’t a huge pain point.

This wand is pretty convenient to use during sex. The smaller size and curved handle make it more easily maneuverable than larger wands.

I especially enjoy the Mantric in the spooning position. With the curved handle and open space spooning provides, I can easily leverage the Mantric and press the vibes to my vulva with excellent pressure.

And it works well in a modified missionary and cowgirl position too. The smaller circumference, but the reasonably tall height of the Mantric’s head allow you to fit the wand in tighter spaces and adjust how much surface area is in contact with your body. A definite advantage over big, full-sized wands like the Doxy Die Cast.

The only position I actually prefer a bigger wand than the Mantric is in Doggystyle. The main issue in this position is that you have to hold the toy up, and gravity is working against you. So I find taller wand vibrators are less tiring because I can rest the base of the handle on the bed to prop it up. 

Even so, the Mantric is lightweight enough that it’s reasonably easy to use in Doggystyle – I still rated it a 7.5.

The Blush Lush Gia is excellent during sex. Its handle and head are slim, which helps it fit easily and comfortably between your bodies. The curved handle also helps you leverage the wand for pressure more easily – even in a limited space.

I can keep excellent contact with my clit for enjoyable stimulation in all positions, but the Gia excels in Spooning, Modified Missionary, and Cowgirl positions. Doggystyle also works well, but since it’s not a very tall wand, you can’t prop the base against the bed, so it can get tiring to hold after a long time.

If you live with other people and need a quiet wand, the Mantric is an excellent choice. It’s one of the absolute quietest wand vibrators we tested even with its moderate power.

When we measured its noise with a sound level meter, it was one of the quietest wands on both low and high power. 

We also test whether my partner can hear the wand on the other side of our closed bedroom door. And he could not hear the Mantric wand on any of its power levels.

Whether loud sounds distract you or you live with others and need to remain discreet, the Mantric is an extremely quiet wand vibrator. 

If you value discretion but prefer the stronger vibrations of larger wand vibrators, the Viben Sultry can also be a good choice. It has excellent power and my partner could not hear it behind a closed door either.

The Blush Lush Gia has passable noise levels.

During our noise testing, I could use both motors’ first two power levels in my room without my partner hearing it behind the closed bedroom door. But he heard the 3rd level of each motor.

If you’re worried about housemates overhearing, a box fan easily drowns the noise out. Or you can stick to the first two settings. The third setting could be annoying if you’re sensitive to sound since it’s a higher-pitched buzz.
If sound is one of your main concerns, the VeDO Wini is a comparably priced wand with better noise levels.

This Mantric wand has some compatibility with attachments, though much less than full-sized wand vibrators since most attachments are designed for large wands.

Of the 25 attachments I own, only 3 fit the Lovehoney Mantric wand: the Wand Essentials – Vibra Cup Penis Masturbator, Domi Male Attachment, and Domi Female Attachment.

However, these three attachments cover a broad range of stimulation. The Domi attachments alone can be used internally for G-spot or anal stimulation, to change the texture of clit stimulation, or for penis stimulation.

So your choices between attachments are more limited. But the compatible attachments still cover a decent variety.

If you value compatibility with a wide range of attachments, a full-sized wand would be best. The Magic Wand Plus, Magic Wand Rechargeable, and Doxy Die Cast all have excellent compatibility with attachments and perform well in other aspects too.

The Blush Lush Gia has poor attachment compatibility compared to most. Its head is smaller and slimmer than most wand vibrators. So only a couple of my wand attachments consistently work – the Lovense Domi attachments. One is a clit and G-spot attachment, and the other is for penis and prostate stimulation.

So you have options, but fewer than wands with large heads like the Orion Your New Favorite Wand.

I found the Mantric Wand very compatible with wand mounts for hands-free play. In fact, I rated it the second highest of all my wand vibrators! Outranked only by one of my personal favorites – the BMS PalmPower Extreme Ultrapowerful.

I use two different mounts – Liberator’s Axis and Wanda. The Axis is geared more toward couples’ play. And the Wanda is my favorite for solo play. Though both mounts can be used alone or with a partner.

The Mantric Wand is the perfect height for the Wanda – the Mantric’s head rests in the perfect position just outside the mount. And I can vary the stimulation by facing the Mantric’s curve toward the front or back of the mount.

I can also straddle the Mantric in the Wanda Mount with plenty of space for my partner to kneel behind me during sex.

The Mantric wand works great with the Axis mount too. It fits securely in the Axis’ wand slot. And the Mantric’s curve makes it hit my clit easily while lying on top of the Axis mount. 

The only wand I enjoy more in the Axis is the BMS PalmPower Extreme. This one also has a curve, but the head is larger. The bigger head allows me to get even more firm pressure. It’s also more powerful if you enjoy extreme vibration strength. 

The Blush Lush Gia has excellent compatibility with mounts for hands-free stimulation!

I test my wands with my Liberator wand mounts, the Axis and Wanda.

The Lush Gia does best with the Wanda mount. The Gia’s curved shape allows you to position the wand in multiple directions for a variety of stimulation. You can sit on the Wanda mount, straddling it for effortless, hands-free stimulation. Or you can kneel above the mount for clitoral vibrations during penetration from behind.

The Lush Gia works great in the Axis mount, too. You can lay over this mount on your stomach while the Gia curves upward between your legs. That curve helps to provide firm pressure and clitoral contact that straight wands often can’t achieve. It’s very comfortable and stays in place well.

The Mantric Wand has a higher-than-average battery life. 

Running continuously on its highest power, it lasted over 2 hours in our testing. And in practical use, you can stretch this out longer by also using some of the lower and middle power levels during your play.

If you expect you’ll need more than 2 hours (or if you’re like me and love to fit several play-sessions between charges), then you may consider the Magic Wand Rechargeable, which lasts over 4 hours!

And of course, plug-in wands like the Magic Wand Plus and Doxy Die Cast never need to be charged.

The Blush Lush Gia has a disappointing battery life. During our test, it lasted only 45 minutes with its wand end continuously vibrating on high. You can extend that time by using the lower and middle power levels, but you’ll want to charge this one frequently.
If you’re looking for a budget-friendly wand with a longer battery life, try the Orion Your New Favorite Wand, which lasted over an hour and a half on high.

The Blush Lush Gia has a G-spot vibrator on the opposite end from the wand. It’s an excellent addition for those who have never tried a G-spot vibrator and want to give it a whirl.

The shape is flexible, which helps with comfort, and the upward curve efficiently targets and presses on my G-spot. It’s best for those who enjoy a slightly girthy feel. If you don’t want much of a stretch, smaller G-spot vibrators like the Pillow Talk Racy G-spot bullet are better.

The Lush Gia’s G-spot vibrations are very buzzy. When it comes to internal vibrations, I prefer a rumbly feel like the vibes on the We-Vibe Nova 2 or Pillow Talk Sassy, so I don’t use the Gia for internal stimulation often.

But it’s certainly a fun bonus, and great for exploring what you like with just one vibrator purchase. And the G-spot stimulation is far better than the other dual-stimulation wand I’ve tested – the Maia Zoe.

This wand feels sturdy and the silicone is high-quality. So it feels nice in the hand and I’m not worried about it breaking with firm pressure. I do find that the power button can sometimes not be responsive though, and I have to press several times to get it to work.

The Blush Lush Gia has adequate build quality. The silicone has a high-quality feel, and the weight makes it seem sturdy. The buzzy G-spot motor sounds and feels a bit cheap, but the wand end is better.

Since it’s so flexible on both ends of the toy, it feels a little flimsy, but I don’t expect that bending it will damage it, and it hasn’t yet!
