Our Verdict

The Doxy Die Cast is a great option for people who prefer extremely powerful stimulation. It has the strongest vibrations of any wand vibrator I’ve tried. And it has a couple softer levels that work well as a warmup – or for people like me who prefer moderate power over enormous strength.

Its first two settings are also wonderfully rumbly, but its highest powers are buzzy. Although no wands I’ve tested remain rumbly with this much strength, there are some like the BMS PalmPower Extreme which get less buzzy. If you’d rather trade off some rumbliness for even more power, the Doxy Die Cast is excellent. Or if you’re like me and prefer moderate strength, you may stick with the first two settings and enjoy rumbly vibes the entire time.

This wand’s high-quality materials and heavy metal construction add some additional pressure that I really enjoy too. If you’re going to spend on a Doxy wand, get this one. I think it’s easily the best Doxy massager.

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 Doxy Die Cast is the most powerful wand I own. 

The “10” on my vibration power scale is based on this wand’s highest setting. In fact, all of its top 3 settings are stronger than my second-most powerful wand. So the Die Cast is a wand for those on a search for extreme intensity.

But it also has some softer settings for those like me who prefer moderate strength. It starts at about 20% power which is a perfect strength for warming up. This power still feels impactful, but not overwhelming. I spend a lot of time on this first setting. Once I’m ready, I’ll jump to the second level, which is around 73% of its full power. 

This second power is already substantially more powerful than my non-wand vibrators (like G-spot vibes, rabbits, etc.). But it’s still not overstimulating, and this power is rumbly so I really enjoy the second level! 

Doxy Die Cast vs Weaker Vibrations
The second power of the Doxy Die Cast (left) is stronger than the highest powers of my favorite g-spot or rabbit vibrators (left)

And that’s as far as I venture. The rest of the settings have enormous power. And even on the first two levels, I wear underwear and leggings to dull the intensity a bit.

If you typically prefer mild stimulation, a wand with more gentle settings like the Dame Com may be better for you. If you love power, the Doxy Die Cast is excellent!

Vibrations: Frequency (Rumbliness)

Performance Rating:

5.2

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 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.

When does it matter:

If you want a wand with a good balance of power and rumbliness.

Show All Scores (Click to See):

We rate rumbly wands higher than buzzy wands since most people prefer rumbliness. 

The Doxy Die Cast has excellent rumbliness on its lower power levels. But when you increase a wand’s power, its vibrations always become buzzier. And the Die Cast’s vibrations are extremely buzzy on its highest levels. These buzzy upper levels are what bring the wand’s overall rumbliness rating down.

But what you’ll experience depends on whether you’ll spend most of your time using the Die Cast’s moderate lower levels or its extreme upper levels. Since I only use the first two power levels, I enjoy deep, rumbly vibrations the entire time.

And the second setting has impressive rumbliness for how much power it packs! This setting’s vibration strength is 7.3 (out of 10). But it vibrates with more rumbliness than wands with comparable power like the Le Wand Rechargeable, Viben Sultry, and others.

BMS PalmPower Extreme vs Doxy Die Cast - Vibration Power vs Frequency Graph

The third power level feels neutral: neither rumbly nor buzzy. And the rest of the Die Cast’s settings are buzzy! If you prefer extreme intensity with less buzziness, consider the BMS PalmPower Extreme. Its only slightly less powerful than the Doxy Die Cast, but it’s less buzzy.

If you’re like me and will usually stick to the moderately powerful settings, the Doxy Die Cast will be a lovely, rumbly wand for you.

Waterproof Rating:

No Rating

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 Doxy Die Cast is a great fit if you enjoy the broad stimulation a full-sized wand provides and like the extra pressure that a heavy wand naturally applies. 

The Die Cast’s large head comfortably spreads the vibrations over a broad area. I feel its strong vibrations throughout my entire vulva. And the smooth silicone head has a bit of plushness to it, which makes it comfortable to press against my body. 

This is also my heaviest wand massager. When lying on my back, the Die Cast’s weight naturally applies delicious pressure against my body with no need to leverage the handle myself. It automatically pushes the vibrations deeper into me for richer-feeling stimulation.  

The heavy weight makes it more difficult to maneuver or make quick adjustments than smaller, lighter wands. But since the vibrations are exceptionally powerful, I don’t need to position the Die Cast very precisely. I can place it roughly near my clit and get plenty of stimulation! So I enjoy this wand’s additional weight. But if you have wrist or maneuverability issues, you may want a lighter, more compact wand like the Lovense Domi.

Weight and Size Comparison of Lovense Domi vs Doxy Die Cast
The Domi (left) is still very powerful, but easier to maneuver than the Doxy Die Cast (left)

The handle takes some effort to grip due to the width and overall weight. But it’s not a problem for me, since I’m not angling and leveraging the Doxy Die Cast like I am with smaller, less powerful wands.

The buttons are easy to use. Their silicone texture is comfortable – and there are separate buttons to increase and decrease power. Some wands only provide a single button to cycle through intensities. 

Though its full-size and heavy weight makes fine-tuned maneuvering and positioning more difficult, it helps in other aspects like pressure. If you typically enjoy full-sized wands, the Doxy Die Cast provides an easy, comfortable experience overall.

Large and small wands each have pros and cons during partnered sex.

The Doxy Die Cast takes up a decent amount of space with its long handle and large head. So if you want to fit it into tight spaces, you have to be more intentional about how you position your bodies. For instance, to use the Die Cast in Cowgirl, I need to lean back slightly to fit the head closer to my clit. On the other hand, I can effortlessly maneuver a small wand like the Lovense Domi exactly where I want it during sex. 

The Die Cast’s heavy weight also takes effort to hold to my clit in some positions – mostly in positions like Doggystyle where I’m holding the wand’s weight up. But its long handle actually comes in handy here – I can help support the weight of the wand by resting the base of the handle on the bed. I find this easy to do in Doggystyle and Spooning positions. 

And in Missionary, I love the weight of the Die Cast. It naturally applies pressure on my vulva and adds to the stimulation I’m enjoying.

Doxy Die Cast Natural Pressure
The Doxy Die Cast adds natural, effortless pressure in this position due to the heavy weight

Strength is another aspect the Doxy Die Cast has going for it during sex. 

Because the vibrations are so powerful, I don’t need to position the head as precisely as I do with a small wand. Pressing the vibrations just above or anywhere near my clit provides all the stimulation I need. 

So it still works well during sex even with limited space. But you may need to experiment more to find ways of supporting its weight, or positioning your bodies that work for you. And the clit stimulation during sex will more likely be indirect since you won’t always be able to place the head right on your clit.

The Doxy Die Cast’s lower levels are discreet, but you’ll need to play music to mask its extremely powerful upper levels so any housemates don’t hear.

My partner cannot hear the lowest power when standing directly on the other side of our closed bedroom door. This power is still strong enough that I orgasm easily from it. And he can only hear the second setting (my favorite) if the house is extremely quiet and I’m moving the Die Cast around a lot so the motor’s sound keeps changing.  

The third level and higher can be heard by someone standing right on the other side of the door. Extreme power is simply loud – every wand we’ve tried is audible in a silent house at that strength. 

But there are solutions. I can use the Doxy Die Cast’s entire power range discreetly as long as I’m playing music in the bedroom.
