What is it:
How wide the range is between the highest and lowest power levels, and whether it has enough power levels that steps between levels aren’t too large.
When does it matter:
A broad power range is usually important because it enables more versatile stimulation. You can start on softer levels when your body isn’t ready for crazy strong power. But when you want more strength, you can turn it up high.

A graph of each wand vibrator’s power vs frequency across all of its power levels.
When does it matter:
If you want a detailed look at the full power and frequency characteristics of any particular wand vibrator. This will tell you how strong and how rumbly each setting of the wand feels.
How Strong Is Each Power?
- Power ≤ 3: Comparable to the vibration strength of smaller vibrators like bullets.
- Power between 3 and 4.5: Comparable to …
(Expand Descriptions)
- Power ≤ 3: Comparable to the vibration strength of smaller vibrators like bullets.
- Power between 3 and 4.5: Comparable to the vibration strength of mid-sized, non-wand vibrators like the Lelo Mona 2, Lovense Hyphy, Lovense Lush 3, We-Vibe Nova 2, etc.
- Power between 4.5 and 7: Slightly to moderately more powerful than mid-sized, non-wand vibrators like those mentioned above.
- Power ≥ 7: Substantially stronger than other kinds of vibrators. These levels feel extremely powerful.
The Vibration Power scale is defined with a 10.0 given to the most powerful wand vibrator’s highest strength (Currently the Doxy Die Cast). So a vibration power of 8.0 feels 80% as strong as the Doxy Die Cast. A 5.0 feels 50% as strong, and so on.
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.

Vibrations: Frequency (Rumbliness)
Rumbliness Rating:
6.5
What is it:
How “rumbly” (low frequency) or “buzzy” (high frequency) a wand vibrator feels at each of its power levels. And whether a wand can deliver strong vibrations while remaining reasonably rumbly. Higher scores indicate a “more rumbly” (lower-frequency) wand, since the majority of people prefer rumbliness. But ultimately vibration frequency is a personal preference.
When does it matter:
If you prefer vibrations in a specific area along the rumbly-to-buzzy spectrum.

If you want a detailed look at the full power and frequency characteristics of any particular wand vibrator. This will tell you how strong and how rumbly each setting of the wand feels.
Frequency on Low Power:
44 Hz
(Extremely Rumbly)
Median Frequency:
75 Hz
(Neutral)
What is it:
What part of the frequency spectrum a wand vibrator’s power levels are centered around. It’s the vibration frequency of the wand’s middle power level (the average of the two middle levels if there is an even number of settings).
When does it matter:
If you prefer vibrations in a particular part of the frequency spectrum. This is a fast way to see whether one wand’s vibration levels are generally more rumbly or buzzy than another wand’s vibration settings. Since most people prefer rumbly toys, a higher performance score implies a lower-frequency (more rumbly) wand.

A measure that rewards wand vibrators that remain rumbly (low-frequency) while packing good vibration strength. Calculated for a wand using the normalized power / normalized frequency at each power level and taking the median.
When does it matter:
If you want a wand with a good balance of power and rumbliness.
Show All Scores (Click to See):
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!

Comfort & Ease Of Use
Comfort & Ease of Use Rating:
9.3
What is it:
How comfortable the wand is to hold and press against your body. As well as how easy it is to press the buttons, leverage the wand for good pressure, and maneuver it to apply the stimulation where and how you want it. This rating also includes how easy the wand is to clean. Ratings are based primarily on solo use – I cover use during partnered sex here.
When does it matter:
If you are easily distracted by subtle discomforts such as feeling the vibrations in your hands, slight wrist strain, or an awkward grip on the handle. It also matters if you want a wand that’s easy to use for a wide variety of stimulation or for long periods of time.
These wands have excellent performance in this category and others. We only include wands we recommend overall, excluding wands that perform well here but not in other areas.

Waterproof Rating:
IPX7
What is it:
The waterproof rating of the wand vibrator – IPX7, IPX6, or No Rating
When does it matter:
When you plan to use your wand vibrator in the shower or want simpler cleaning.
- IPX7 (Submersible): Wands with this rating are considered “waterproof.” You can submerge them in water up to a meter deep for up to 30 minutes. So you can use them in the bath and cleaning is easy.
- IPX6 (Splashproof): Wands with this rating can resist high-pressure, heavy sprays of water, but should not be fully submerged. This means you can use them in the shower (but not submerged in a bath). You can also clean them under a sink faucet without worry.
- No Rating: These wands do not have a waterproof rating. You should not use them in the shower, and you must be careful to keep water away from electronic components when cleaning them .
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.

How easy a wand vibrator is to maneuver and comfortably hold to your clit for quality stimulation in the Cowgirl sex position – the penetrating partner is lying on their back, while the partner using the wand is straddling on top of them.
When does it matter:
If you frequently have sex in positions facing each other with the partner receiving penetration on top.
Scoring Factors:
Subjectively Scored
Show All Scores (Click to See):
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!

What is it:
How loud the wand’s lowest power level is, measured in dB with a sound level meter approximately 12 inches away
When does it matter:
If you typically use a wand’s lower power levels. Several wands are so strong, many people will only use the lower end of their power range.
Good Value:
<43 dB is excellent; Nearly everything under this value was inaudible behind a closed door.

Lastly, we tested the highest power while music was playing in the bedroom.

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.

Show All Scores (Click to See):
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.

When does it matter:
If you own or plan to purchase the Axis mount. You can use this mount solo or with a partner, but I find it best for hands-free stimulation during partnered sex. You can lie on top of the mount face-down, and it makes using your wand vibrator hands-free during sex from behind comfortable and easy. (Like a more relaxing version of the Doggystyle sex position)

Compatibility with Wanda:

What is it:
How well a wand vibrator fits with the Liberator Wanda mount. Whether the wand fits correctly and securely, and whether it can provide quality, comfortable clit stimulation when the wand is placed in the mount.
When does it matter:
If you own or plan to purchase the Wanda mount. This mount is best if you enjoy positions on your knees. With the Axis mount, it’s easiest to lie on top of it. But you’ll straddle the Wanda on your knees. You can use it solo or with a partner.
Scoring Factors:
Subjectively Scored
Show All Scores (Click to See):
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:
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.

Battery Life on High Power:
105 minutes
Power Source:
Rechargeable
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!
Build Quality
Build Quality Rating:
7.5
What is it:
Our perception of the wand vibrator’s durability and material quality; whether it feels cheap or sturdy and long-lasting. If we noticed any decline in a wand’s performance over our months of testing, it is accounted for in its Build Quality rating.
When does it matter:
When you want a wand vibrator to last for years. Many wand vibrator manufacturers provide a warranty (usually 1 to 2 years), but a higher quality wand vibrator is more likely to endure after your warranty is expired.
