Our Verdict

The Romp Flip is one of the least expensive wand massagers available. 

But it has weak vibrations, and the extremely flexible neck makes it hard to apply any pressure. So I have a difficult time orgasming with the Romp Flip. It also feels cheaply made – my first Romp Flip broke within the first 5 months of use.

There are several better wand vibrators under $50. Or if you have some wiggle room in the budget, there are several great options that are only slightly more expensive – including two of my favorites, the Magic Wand Mini and Dame Com.

Compare Wand Vibrators

The Romp Flip is a cheap wand vibrator. But it has a flimsy build, weak vibrations, and there are better wands in this price range. The Blush Noje W4, Orion Your New Favorite Wand, and VeDO Wini are all more powerful, durable options with generally better performance.

Build Quality


Build Quality Rating:

3.0

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.

Romp Flip Build Quality

This wand feels cheap. I’m currently on my second Romp Flip – the first one stopped vibrating within the first 5 months of testing it. And while I haven’t experienced issues with its replacement, this toy does not feel like it was made to last.

The plastic construction feels especially thin and delicate. And the extremely flexible neck feels flimsy. I’m worried it will break if you apply much pressure – I suspect this is why my first one stopped working.

At a comparable price, the Blush Noje W4 feels like a higher-quality wand.


Vibrations: Power And Range


Max Power Rating

3.2

What is it:

How strong the wand vibrator’s highest power level feels.

When does it matter:

If you prefer the extreme power some wands offer or want to make sure your wand at least reaches a certain strength.

Scoring Factors:

Subjectively Scored

Power Range Rating:

4.8

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.

Power vs Frequency Graph:

What is it:

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 Romp Flip is one of my weakest wand vibrators. Its top strength is closer to the middle power levels of my bullet vibrators. And all 6 intensity levels are so close together that they essentially feel the same.

The Romp Flip is only a good option for people who are very easily overstimulated.

But if you’re looking for power, like people considering wand vibrators usually are, you have a few options.

First – if you’re here because the Romp Flip is budget-friendly, you should check out the Blush Noje W4 instead. This wand is cheaper, but has 3x the vibration strength of the Romp Flip. Or for even more power, the Orion Wand is the strongest under $50.

Blush Noje W4 as Better Wand vs Romp Flip
The Blush Noje W4 (left) – a better, budget-friendly option than the Romp Flip (right)

If you’ve got a bit more budget, you can find several wands under $100 (or less) that provide a more traditional wand vibrator feel.

If you prefer moderate power, the Magic Wand Mini or Dame Com are stronger than my non-wand vibrators (like G-spot vibes, rabbit vibrators, etc.). But they don’t have the extreme upper levels some wands reach. They’re great if you like some strength, but find too much power overwhelming.

Magic Wand Mini Dame Com and Magic Wand Plus
Better mid or high-powered alternatives under $100 (left to right: Magic Wand Mini, Dame Com, Magic Wand Plus)

And if you want those immense upper levels, the Magic Wand Plus is one of the strongest wand vibrators available, and it is the most powerful wand under $100.

Vibrations: Frequency (Rumbliness)


Rumbliness Rating:

6.9

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.

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.

Frequency on Low Power:

38 Hz

(Extremely Rumbly)

Median Frequency:

43 Hz

(Extremely Rumbly)

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.

Frequency on High Power:

(Extremely Rumbly)

Ave Power Per Frequency:

4.2

What is it:

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.
