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 Le Wand Plug-In has a good top strength of 6.7 out of 10 on our scale—but its power range is limited. All 10 levels fall in a moderate-to-strong range and are close together. There are no gentle warmup levels or extremely powerful settings that many full-sized wands have.

This could work if you only want moderate to strong settings. But for anyone who wants more nuance—a gradual build or extreme strength—it falls short. For example, the Magic Wand Plus starts gentler and ends stronger, with 34% more strength. The BMS PalmPower Extreme also offers gradual adjustability from very soft to extremely intense.

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 rumbly vibrations higher than buzzy ones because it’s what most people prefer. However, this is an area of personal preference, so consider what you like.

The Le Wand Plug-In has average rumbliness – the first several settings provide rumbly vibrations at a moderate strength. Settings on the higher end feel neutral or buzzy. This covers a wide range of frequencies and can be good, especially if you want rumbly, neutral, and buzzy settings.

However, in this price range, there are better wands that span similar frequency ranges to the Le Wand Plug-In. For instance, the Magic Wand Plus and PalmPower Extreme cover a similar range with more power and better overall performance.

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 Le Wand Plug-In is easy to use and has average comfort for a large wand.

You can easily reach the exact setting you want because of the excellent controls. You can increase and decrease strength, and adjust the intensity of each vibration pattern, too.

The thick, heavy handle can be tiring to hold and slower to maneuver. I find it easier to use two hands most of the time. While it’s not as nimble to move around, the weight adds excellent natural pressure. The head is pretty comfortable for how large and firm it is. It’s best if you prefer broad contact and tend to keep your wand in the same place. It’s not for you if you like more precise contact and want something smaller to move around more easily, like the Le Wand Dive.

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.

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 Le Wand Plug-In is sub-par during sex, mainly due to its large size, heavy weight, and firm, full-sized head.

In spooning, the wand’s bulk makes it tiring to hold. It’s best to shift your top leg back so that the vibrations don’t fatigue your leg.

In doggystyle, you can rest the base of the handle on the bed to help support the weight. But getting the bulky rounded head to hit where I want is tough. I have trouble getting good contact in modified missionary, too. In cowgirl, you’ll likely need to lean back to provide enough space for the wand to stimulate well. It’s heavy, so I prefer to let the weight rest against me.

The vibrations travel pretty well, but wands with smaller heads like the PalmPower Extreme or Le Wand Dive are better if direct, consistent contact is important.

If your partner moves aggressively in any of these positions, the firm head can also press into you uncomfortably, in which case the Magic Wand Plus’s plush head is better.

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 Le Wand Plug-In is not discreet. When we tested it, my partner could hear it on every setting from behind our closed bedroom door.

It’s so big that it’s hard to prevent it from hitting the covers, which makes extra sound. And without the covers, there’s no dampening of the sound. You can mask the noise with a box fan or music. But if you want something more discreet, the We-Vibe Wand 2 is both stronger and quieter.

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 Le Wand Plug-In has fantastic compatibility with attachments. Most attachments are designed for full-sized heads like this, so you have a ton of variety. Le Wand also makes several of their own attachments specifically designed for this wand. See our wand attachment compatibility table here for the full list of attachments that fit this 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. 

We test our wands with the Liberator Axis and Wanda mounts. The Le Wand Plug-In works well with both.

The Axis holds your wand at an angle while you lie across the mount on your stomach. The Le Wand Plug-In provides great pressure and contact in this mount since the head is so big – it reaches your clit easily and provides lots of comfortable surface area to press against.

The Wanda holds the wand up while you straddle the mount on your knees. Some smaller wands allow you to sit directly on top of the mount, but the Le Wand Plug-In is too tall for this. Instead, you’ll need to kneel above it for hands-free solo play or with a partner behind you. The broad head is very comfortable to press against for even pressure and consistent contact.

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 Le Wand Plug-In is corded, so you’ll need to play near an outlet, but you don’t have to worry about charging it between uses.

The power cord is 8 feet long, giving you some flexibility, and comes with 4 adapters for US, AUS, EU, and UK outlets.

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 Le Wand Plug-In has good build quality.

The plastic handle feels well-constructed and sturdy (not somewhat thin like the Le Wand Petite’s). The neck is thick, and I’m not worried about applying firm pressure. The buttons and firm head aren’t quite as comfortable as the competing Magic Wands‘ plush heads. But overall, it seems sturdy.
