Though not as overwhelming as a few wands like the Magic Wand Plus or PalmPower Extreme, the Viben Sultry has excellent power topping out at 7.3 out of 10 – significantly stronger than any of my non-wand vibrators.

Though it has 8 power levels, it begins with a fair amount of power – I can orgasm easily on any setting. The lowest level is 6.5 out of 10 – already close to its top power of 7.3. There’s nothing really soft.

Normally with a limited power range, I’d need to use a gentler toy to warm up before switching to a powerful wand. But for me, the Sultry just works! Its power range is at my ideal threshold – I find it intense, but comfortable. And I think the main reason it works for me is because of how the vibrations feel: the vibration frequency.

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.

The Viben Sultry is one of the most rumbly wand vibrators we’ve tested. Its entire power range is on the rumbly side of the spectrum, and it packs excellent strength while remaining rumbly.

The Sultry’s lowest 3 levels are extremely rumbly. This makes the wand’s powerful start feel impactful but not overwhelming. The rumbly vibrations are more widespread and comfortable while traveling deeper through your body.

The top 5 power levels remain moderately rumbly, with just a bit more zing that focuses the vibrations in a tighter area. Only a few other wands reach the Sultry’s top strength of 7.3 or higher (like the Orion Grande) while remaining rumbly.

If you enjoy moderate to strong power and love deep, rumbly vibrations the Viben Sultry will be a good fit.

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 Viben Sultry is an especially comfortable full-sized wand, but the controls are poor.

It weighs less than other large wands and has a slim, contoured silicone handle that’s very comfy to grip. These features make it easier to maneuver and leverage the Sultry for firm pressure – it doesn’t feel like you’re holding a bulky wand vibrator. The slightly flexible neck also keeps the pressure comfortable without flexing so much that applying pressure becomes difficult.

The tall head provides lovely, broad stimulation. But you can also use the slight lip formed near the top of the head to apply more focused stimulation.

The Sultry’s controls are its only downside. It does not have separate buttons to increase and decrease power. You need to cycle through intensity levels using a single button, and they’re in reverse order (most powerful to least). While this is mildly annoying, the power levels are so close together that I can live with it. It’s still one of the wands I reach for the most.

What’s more frustrating is that if you accidentally press the vibration pattern button, you must cycle through all 19 patterns to return to the constant setting. Simply turning the wand off and back on again does not work because the wand resumes on the same setting. The Maia Nala is a comparably-priced wand with better controls if that’s your priority.

It’s also fully IPX7 waterproof, so it’s quick and easy to clean.

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.

The Viben Sultry also works well during sex. Its tall head is still relatively slim, so it fits into tight spaces better than other full-sized wands. You also don’t need to position it very precisely because its strong, rumbly vibrations travel deep and feel impactful, even when the head is not placed right near your clit.

Its light weight is even more helpful during sex since you’re more often in positions where you’re holding the wand up, like in Doggystyle or Spooning. So it doesn’t get tiring like heavier wands. Since the Sultry is fairly long, you can also rest the base of its handle on the bed during Doggystyle to further support its weight.

Though the head is firmer than the plush silicone of the Magic Wand Rechargeable or Plus, its flexible neck keeps it comfortable during sex.

If you enjoy the broad, powerful stimulation of full-sized wands, and want something easy to use during sex, this is one of the best options.

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.

The Viben Sultry is one of the quietest wands with this much power – it’s a good option for people who want something strong and discreet. From behind a closed door, my partner can easily hear most wand vibrators this strong.

But I can often use the Sultry on its highest power level without my partner hearing it. We have retested this wand multiple times because it’s right on the border between audible and inaudible on its max setting. Some days my partner can just barely discern the sound of the Sultry’s vibrations on high. But the house has to be completely silent, and he has to try hard to listen for it. Other days he can’t hear it at all.

Turning on a box fan in the bedroom will ensure the Viben Sultry can’t be heard on any power level.

For even more discretion, the We-Vibe Wand 2 is better overall and remains inaudible on every setting, but it’s also more expensive.

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.

The Viben Sultry’s slim head which makes it comfortable and easy to use during sex limits its compatibility with wand attachments. Some attachments designed for full-sized wands like the Magic Wand Rechargeable also fit the Viben Sultry, while others are too loose.

You can still find compatible attachments for a variety of stimulation including penis, anal, G-spot, prostate, and clitoral. But your selection is more limited. See our full wand attachment compatibility table for information on all the attachments we tested for compatibility.

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 test my wands with Liberator’s wand mounts – the Axis and Wanda. The Sultry works well with both!

The Axis holds the Sultry at a slight upward angle between my legs, as I lie face down along the mount. I can simply lie on the mount and cruise to orgasm solo or have my partner enter me from behind.

Despite its slimmer handle compared to other full-sized wands, the Axis firmly and securely grips the Sultry, preventing any unwanted movement. The Sultry’s tall head provides plenty of surface area for good contact and comfort. With its considerable height, the head applies pressure without requiring me to adjust my body much. Though angled wands like the BMS PalmPower Extreme provide even better contact.

When using the Wanda mount, the Sultry rests upright, allowing me to press against it while kneeling. I find the Sultry’s rounded slim head especially effective in the Wanda. Since it’s slim, I get a bit more focused stimulation, and the subtle rounded shape is very comfortable.

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 Viben Sultry is rechargeable and lasted just over 2 hours continuously running on its max power during our testing. This is above-average performance and will be plenty for most people.

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 solid and comfortable! The neck has some flex but doesn’t feel flimsy at all, so I’m not afraid to apply firm pressure. I love the silicone head and handle, which makes for a comfortable hold and feels luxurious.

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!
