The O-wand has a good power range, starting off gentle (1.9 of 10 vibration strength) and working through four levels to a top power of 7.3. Its top strength is extremely powerful and substantially stronger than any non-wand vibrator I own.

The first gentle setting provides a good warm up, and I often finish on the second power. I usually don’t need to use the third or fourth levels as the first two are powerful enough.

But while the O-wand’s power is good, there’s no reason to pay this much for it. Several cheaper wands have an even better power range including the Magic Wand Plus, Magic Wand Rechargeable, and BMS PalmPower Extreme.

The Bellesa Nirvana has 5 power levels with subtle jumps between settings. Great for a gradual build.

The top level is mid-powered for a wand, but it’s actually still stronger than my favorite non-wand vibrators. Personally, I don’t use the extreme, upper levels some wands reach very often. So I’m satisfied with the strength of the Bellesa Nirvana’s vibrations…

But not at this price!

If you’re like me and you typically enjoy moderate (but not overwhelming) power – the Dame Com and Magic Wand Mini both have wonderful mid-powered vibrations without costing as much as the Nirvana.

And if you like a lot of power, the Lovense Domi and BMS PalmPower Extreme both reach those immense power levels at a lower price tag. These both have excellent power range with lovely low levels too – so I also enjoy them even when I don’t want crazy strength.

Most people prefer rumbly vibrations, so we rate these wands higher. But your preferences may vary, so consider what you enjoy.

The O-wand begins extremely rumbly on its lowest power. But every level after feels neutral or buzzy. If you are one of the folks who enjoy buzzy vibrations, then you may really enjoy this! The O-wand’s not so buzzy that it’s overwhelming, but I still prefer wands with deeper vibrations.

If you usually prefer rumbly wands, you’ll be better off considering the comparably powerful, but more rumbly Magic Wand Rechargeable or BMS PalmPower Extreme.

The Bellesa Nirvana’s first two power levels are extremely and moderately rumbly respectively. But that rumbliness is gone on the three highest power levels which feel more neutral.

This may or may not be a positive for you.

We rate wands with more rumbly vibrations higher than neutral or buzzy wands because most people prefer rumbly vibrations. So the Nirvana scores fairly low in this category.

But the choice between buzzy or rumbly vibes is ultimately a personal preference – and many enjoy vibrations near the middle of the spectrum like the Bellesa Nirvana.

If you don’t like your vibrations too far on the rumbly side, you’ll enjoy how the Nirvana feels! But, then I’d still recommend you check out the Lovehoney Mantric Wand instead. The Mantric is practically the same vibrator for about half the cost.

And if you prefer deep, rumbly vibrations: try the Lovense Domi or Dame Com instead. Both have excellent, rumbly vibrations throughout their entire power range!

The O-wand is one of the largest, heaviest wand massagers which makes it more difficult to maneuver than others. 

And I think the handle shape compounds this difficulty. The O-wand has a looped handle, intended to make holding the wand more comfortable. And while the unique shape of some wands like the PalmPower Extreme actually helps, I find the O-wand’s looped handle awkward. It makes the handle too wide, and I can’t find a comfortable spot to grip and leverage the O-Wand.  

The looped handle could be a personal preference. And perhaps with more use, I might adapt to it. But the O-wand just isn’t one of my favorite wands, so I don’t reach for it.

The larger head is quite firm, which is great for applying pressure. But it would be more comfortable if it were plusher. Its wide surface is best for broad stimulation over focused.

The buttons on this wand are fairly easy to press, but you have to cycle through the vibration powers. I prefer wands that let decrease the power level instead of looping through all the higher settings first. But since there are only 4 powers on this, it isn’t too problematic.

The vibration patterns are controlled with a separate button from the intensity levels. I appreciate this because I don’t often use patterns. So when looping through settings to get back to a softer power, I don’t have to pass through a flurry of random patterns taking me out of the mood.

The Nirvana’s slender, smooth, curved handle and slim head make it a comfortable wand to maneuver and leverage for good pressure. Not to mention it’s completely waterproof and easy to clean!

You may have been drawn to the Nirvana because it’s one of our top performers in this category. But you can find other wands that are just as comfortable, and perform better in other areas – at a lower cost.

I’d recommend the Magic Wand Mini if you want a compact wand. Or the Viben Sultry if you want something longer.

The O-wand is going to be a struggle for most people during sex due to its size and weight. It takes up a lot of room and gets tiring to hold – especially since the handle makes it more awkward to grip.

I have the most success in Cowgirl and Spooning positions. In Cowgirl, the long handle has more room to move around without getting in the way. And the round head has a very slight taper, which can squeeze into slightly tighter spots in those positions.

While Spooning I’ve found that I can rest the handle against the bed to support the O-wand’s weight. So it helps a bit with the heaviness issue.

I find Doggystyle very difficult with the O-wand. I want to rest the bottom of the handle against the bed, but the curved handle makes this difficult. So I have a hard time getting the head to maintain good clitoral contact – my arm gets very tired trying to keep the O-wand’s head pressed to my clit.

Many of the same features that make the Bellesa Nirvana comfortable and easy to use solo also make it great during sex – the smaller size and curved handle in particular.

The Nirvana performs best in the Spooning position, Modified Missionary, and Cowgirl. Doggystyle is a little trickier since you’re working against gravity and pressing the toy upwards. My arm gets tired because it’s not tall enough to rest the weight of the wand on the bed.

If you want something that works better for all positions, I’d recommend the Lovense Domi 2 or the BMS PalmPower Extreme. These are less expensive than the Bellesa Nirvana.

And they’re all-around better wands!

The O-wand body massager is fairly noisy. When we tested whether my partner could hear it from the other side of a closed door – he heard the O-wand on every power level. 

You can mask its sound by turning on a box fan or playing music. This made it so that my partner couldn’t hear it even on high. So you can still use it discreetly if you take some extra precautions.

But there are comparably powerful, quieter wands like the Magic Wand Rechargeable and Viben Sultry among others.

The Bellesa Nirvana is fairly quiet in use. It only measures 35dB on low power and high power.

But we also test with my partner listening on the other side of our closed bedroom door while I use the wand in bed. During these tests, he could hear the Nirvana on its middle through high power levels. There’s a slight rattle or some other off-sound that makes it more perceptible.

The Lelo Smart Wand 2 (Large) and Viben Sultry have more power while remaining more discreet. And even the Magic Wand Rechargeable with its enormous vibration strength was only audible at its highest power level.

The O-wand has good compatibility with wand attachments. It comes with its own attachment that adds some texture for clit stimulation. And since it’s a full-sized wand most attachments designed for the Magic Wand brand fit the O-wand. 

However, the O-wand’s head has a slightly tapered shape to it, which causes a few attachments to fit loosely. They’re still useable, but not a perfect fit. But overall you’ll be able to find something enjoyable. There are compatible attachments for a broad variety of stimulation. 

Below are the attachments we’ve tested and found compatible with the O-wand.

For a smaller wand, the Bellesa Nirvana has fair attachment compatibility (most wand attachments are designed for full-sized options like the Magic Wand Rechargeable).

The Nirvana’s compatible with the Lovense Domi’s attachments. And these cover a broad range of stimulation: adding texture, or providing penis, G-spot, prostate, or anal stimulation.

If you want a ton of variety, you’ll want to consider a larger wand vibrator.

There are several that score a “10” for wand compatibility on my list, but my favorite is the Magic Wand Rechargeable.

I test each of my wands with Liberator’s mounts for hands-free stimulation (something I really enjoy).

Unfortunately, the O-wand body massager is not compatible with either mount. The large, looped handle prevents it from fitting into each mount’s slot designed to hold a wand vibrator.

My favorite for mount use is the BMS PalmPower Extreme.

I test my wands with the Liberator Axis mount and Liberator Wanda mount – these mounts hold your wand so you can enjoy hands-free stimulation. They’re also great if you don’t like holding a vibrator during partnered sex.

The Axis lets you lay on your stomach on top of the mount while it holds the wand between your legs. And the Wanda lets you straddle the mount for stimulation.

The Bellesa Nirvana is very compatible with both of these because of its medium size and curved handle. I’ve found curved wands tend to provide the best pressure and clitoral contact when used with a mount.

But for its price, since the Nirvana underperforms in other areas I’d recommend a cheaper wand – one that scores even higher in this category:

The BMS PalmPower Extreme!

This one’s my favorite wand vibrator to use with a mount. It’s also less expensive and more powerful. It has a slightly wider, angled head that gives excellent clit stimulation with either mount.

The O-wand is rechargeable and can last about 215 minutes continuously vibrating on its highest power. This is longer than average, but there are others that match it.

I test battery life by charging all my wands fully – then letting them run continuously on high power until they die. The Nirvana lasted about 105 minutes.

This is plenty of time to play solo or with a partner. But there are several toys at this price point that have longer battery lives. Especially if you know you’re going to forget to charge between uses.
The Magic Wand Mini and Magic Wand Rechargeable, for example, will double your play time!

The O-wand has a sturdy construction and feels well-made. The handle is durable and the head can take firm pressure without feeling strained at all. 

The buttons feel slightly cheap, but overall, I expect this wand to last.

This wand feels very sturdy and the silicone seems high-quality. Overall, it’s pretty well constructed, though it has an occasional rattle sound in the vibrations. It hasn’t affected its performance but may be annoying to some.
