Here’s the main conclusion: the Dolce has one of the strongest clit motors out of all my wearables, and it’s one of the few I can orgasm with hands-free from the clit stimulation alone.

The gradual settings from gentle to intense provide lots of warmup space, and, when both motors are running, they play off each other for an enjoyable, deeper thudding sensation.

The adjustability makes it more likely you’ll get good clit contact, though it’s still somewhat dependent on your anatomy for the perfect fit. But even if it’s not direct – the vibrations are strong enough that they travel.

In the next sections, I’ll cover the Club Vibe’s vibration power and rumbliness in-depth.

Here’s the main conclusion:

The Club Vibe is one of the weaker panty vibrators for clit stimulation – not one I can orgasm with hands-free. Having only a single power level (no warmup, no build) and a loose fit, the vibrations just don’t feel stimulating.

For meaningfully better clit stimulation at a lower price, go with the Lovense Ferri (about $20 less) if you want app control, or the VeDO Niki (about half the price) if you want a physical remote.

The Lovense Dolce has one of the strongest clit motors of any wearable I’ve tested, with a top power of 9.75 out of 10 – a touch stronger than even Lovense’s panty vibrator, the Lovense Ferri. It’s easily strong enough for me to orgasm hands-free from clit stimulation alone when the toy’s positioned well, and even when the fit sits a little off to the side, the vibrations are powerful enough that it’s still one of the most stimulating wearables for external vibes.

It also has one of the broadest power ranges you’ll find in a wearable – starting at a gentle 1 out of 10 strength with very gradual adjustability. That’s really useful since you likely wont be varying the toy’s position or pressure with your hand, if you’re sticking with wearing it for hands-free stimulation.

For me, both of the Dolce’s arms are a touch long, so the external arm sits near my clit, but not pressed totally against it. You can adjust the angle of the hinge point, but not the lengths of the arms. So whether the vibrations transfer well to you depends on the fit.

Thankfully, the vibrations are so strong that it stays very stimulating even without firm, direct contact. Especially when the two motors’ vibrations work together to create a sort of “thumping” feel.

If you want more guaranteed direct clitoral contact with your wearable, try the Lovense Ferri, a panty vibrator that you can position wherever you need it in your underwear and secure it with a strong magnetic clip. You can pair it with the Lovense Lush 4 to add in the G-spot vibes.

But if you’re not as concerned about a perfect fit, the Lovense Dolce is our strongest dual-stimulator.

The Club Vibe 3.OH’s clit vibrations fall short. I can’t orgasm with it hands-free like I can with better panty vibes like the Lovense Ferri and VeDO Niki.

There’s only one power level – sitting at about 6.75 out of 10. There’s no way to dial intensity down for a gentler warmup or up for a stronger finish. And since it’s a hands-free toy, this really eliminates your ability to vary stimulation.

The vibrations also transfer poorly to my clit because there’s no magnet to secure it in place like better panty vibrators have. So the toy slips easily out of position, especially in looser underwear or pants. But even when wearing tight clothes, I still end up pressing the toy against me by hand to try to get the vibrations to feel stronger.

Both the Lovense Ferri and VeDO Niki are better picks with a better fit and more power levels.

We rate rumbly vibrations higher than buzzy ones because most people prefer them. But it’s a personal preference.

The Dolce’s clit motor is more rumbly than most wearables. It starts extremely rumbly on its lowest setting (around 49 Hz), stays neutral through the middle, and only turns extremely buzzy at full power (around 116 Hz).

Vibrations always get buzzier as the power rises, and the Dolce provides a nice variety of frequencies. And if you’re running both motors at once, (especially one high and one low) you can achieve a low-frequency “beat” sensation from the two motors interacting with each other – that beat makes the vibrations feel deeper and more rumbly than their raw frequency alone suggests.

The Dolce’s external motor is actually more rumbly than the Lovense Ferri, so it’s a great pick for those who prefer deeper vibrations.

The Lelo Ida Wave is slightly more rumbly, but it’s not as strong overall. So if you prioritize a good balance of rumbliness and power, the Dolce is better.

We rate panty vibrators with rumbly vibrations higher than buzzy ones because rumbliness is what most people prefer – but it’s genuinely a personal preference, so consider what you like.

With only one power level, there’s a single frequency: 109 Hz, which is extremely buzzy.

Panty vibes with buzzy clit motors can still feel great if the rest of the design delivers (like the Lovense Ferri). Unfortunately, the poor fit and lack of settings make this toy understimulating no matter the frequency.

If you do prefer rumbly clit vibrations, try the VeDO Niki.

In the next sections, I’ll cover the G-spot motor’s power and rumbliness in detail.

Here’s the main conclusion: the Dolce has the most powerful G-spot motor I’ve tested in a dual-stimulation wearable. Its girthy, bulbous arm presses firmly into my front wall, so the strong vibrations transfer right to your G-spot where you want them.

The vibes feel rumbly on low and buzzy on high. But when you have both motors going together, it adds a thuddy sensation that feels deeper and more layered.

Like all panty vibrators, the OhMiBod Club Vibe 3.OH only stimulates your clit – not your G-spot. Since most women need clit stimulation to orgasm, a panty vibrator is often the right type of wearable. But if you’re interested in G-spot stimulation instead, see all our recommendations for the best egg vibrators here.

The Lovense Dolce has the most stimulating G-spot arm of my dual-stimulation wearable vibrator. Its internal motor is strong, reaching about 9.4 out of 10 on high, and that power tranfers to my G-spot well: the bulbous arm presses firmly against the front wall, hands-free.

These strong vibes and pressure on my G-spot make my orgasms from the clit vibrations feel richer and fuller.

Like the clit motor, the G-spot arm has incremental adjustments through the app – much more control than budget options like the Fantasy For Her G-spot Stimulate-Her provide. It starts gentle enough to warm up with, and gradually builds to the extreme top strength without large jumps. A wide range like this makes it easy to find power levels that work for you without getting overstimulated.

What makes the vibrations land so well is the internal arm’s shape. It’s a bit wider and thicker than even Lovense’s famous Lush eggs, so it applies firm pressure and creates a really full feel. The slim-armed Fantasy For Her actually reaches a hair higher on paper (about 9.75 out of 10), but its narrow arm doesn’t press as firmly, so the Dolce feels more stimulating.

The dedicated G-spot eggs still do one thing better: the Lovense Lush 4 and older models press a little more precisely into the ideal spot since you’re not trying to position two arms in a perfect place. So if targeted G-spot stimulation alone is all you’re after, an egg vibrator can be better. But the Dolce also provides the clit stimulation that many need to orgasm (which the Lush eggs lack).

The Lovense Dolce has a good balance between rumbly and buzzy vibes. But it is my most rumbly powerful dual-stimulation toy. And when both motors run together, there’s an extra thuddy sensation layered in that makes the vibes feel even more rumbly.

Rumbliness matters more on the G-spot side than it does for the clit motor. On the clit side, you’re placing the vibe directly on a highly sensitive area, so whether the vibrations are deeper (rumbly) or more surface-level (buzzy), it feels very stimulating. But G-spot vibrations have to travel farther through tissue to reach more nerve-rich regions, and lower-frequency vibes do that better.

So it helps that the Dolce’s G-spot motor is on the more rumbly end compared to most wearables. The entire first half of it’s settings fall in the rumbly range, and it only turns extremely buzzy at the very top strength. But when you have the two motors going at the same time, it adds that low-frequency “beat” sensation that keeps the top level from turning into a thin surface-level buzz.

The Dolce has the best balance of rumbliness and power I’ve found in a dual-stimulation wearable.

In the next sections, I’ll cover the Lovense app’s close-range features, long-distance features, and connectivity in detail.

Here’s the main conclusion:

The Lovense app is by far the best of any brand. It provides the most control, is easiest to use, and has the most reliable connectivity. If an outstanding app is your top priority, stick to a Lovense toy.

The OhMiBod Club Vibe 3.OH isn’t controlled through an app. App control lets you create custom patterns, control multiple motors or toys, play long-distance, and lets a controlling partner see exactly what your toy is doing. If that matters to you, see our app-controlled recommendations in these guides:

• best remote and app-controlled vibrators (all types of vibrators)
• best wearable vibrators (wearables only).

The Lovense Dolce’s app has the best close-range features of any brand. It gives easy intuitive control over power or patterns.

On the main Remote screen, you drag the control dots up or down to adjust intensity of the vibrations.

Tap Float to hold a steady power, or Loop to draw a custom pattern that repeats. Since the toy reacts as you draw, you can feel the pattern in real time instead of creating it blindly and testing it later. If you like what you made, tap Record to save it to My Patterns.

Lovense provides separate control of each motor, so you can set them to different intensities. Or drag one dot on top of the other to control them together if you find that easier.

For presets, the My Patterns screen includes Lovense’s default patterns, anything you’ve saved, and patterns downloaded from Lovense’s active community library.

Lovense’s sound-reactive mode is also the best I’ve used. You can set a minimum decibel threshold, so the toy stays quiet until the sound around you is louder, and adjust sensitivity to control how much of the toy’s power range it uses. The live decibel readout makes it easy to calibrate. Many other apps either combine these controls or don’t offer a threshold at all.

The music-sync mode works with Spotify or local files and follows the music well enough to keep the vibrations varying without any effort on your end. You can cap the intensity to keep it in a comfortable range to you.

Lovense also includes a few useful extras: Voice Control, device-to-device control with certain Lovense toys, and per-toy max intensity settings. The intensity cap is helpful if you want to limit noise or prevent a partner from pushing the toy too high.

Overall, the Lovense app’s close-range features are excellent – and easily the best of any brand I’ve tested.

Lovense also has the best long-distance experience of any brand, by a wide margin.

During messaging or video calls, your partner gets the same excellent Remote screen used for close-range control. They can set a steady intensity with Float or draw a repeating pattern with Loop, so long-distance control doesn’t feel stripped down. The only small downside is that you can’t control your own toy during a video call – only your partner can.

The video call tools are excellent. Incoming calls are easy to notice and accept, and once you’re in a call, the video feed is clear. You can mute, toggle your camera, switch between front and back cameras, cast audio to a speaker, or end the call. The controls stay out of the way until you tap the screen, and you can move your self-view so it doesn’t block your partner.

The app also handles normal phone use well. You can lock your screen or switch to another app without disrupting the session.

Messaging is equally strong. The thread is easy to follow, and you can send voice notes, photos, and videos from your camera or camera roll. There’s also an optional “burn after reading” feature for one-time viewing that prevents screenshots, and it works as intended.

Lovense gives you helpful partner settings too. You can let a trusted partner auto-accept control requests – so they can take control of your toy by surprise. Or get a notification when they come online, or hide your online status from specific people. Each partner can have different settings.

Lovense also offers the broadest anonymous and group control options. You can send a one-time control link or create a group link for up to 10 people. When the time runs out, they lose access and can’t request control again.

If long-distance play is the main reason you’re buying a wearable vibrator, Lovense is the best choice.

The Dolce’s connectivity is excellent. Lovense has the most reliable app connection of any brand I’ve tested, both for nearby Bluetooth control and long-distance play.

Pairing is quick: The very first time you connect, simply tap Add Toy, turn the Dolce on, and it appears in the app within seconds. After that first setup, it auto-connects as soon as you turn it on with the app open.

Once paired, the Dolce stays connected through normal phone use, including locking your screen, switching apps, or leaving the app idle.

It also handles body interference very well. Water-rich materials (like body tissue) can weaken Bluetooth more than walls or clothing, which is why some egg vibrators work fine for solo control but drop connection when a partner controls them from certain angles. In our body-interference test, the Dolce stayed connected through all three positions, including the hardest one.

Bluetooth range was excellent too, reaching about 340 feet in our clear line-of-sight test. That’s one of the longest ranges we’ve measured for a wearable and far more than most people will need. Though walls and other interference will shorten real-world range.

If the Dolce does disconnect, the app reconnects automatically once the signal is clear. A red “Reconnecting…” message also tells the controlling partner that control has paused. You can choose whether the toy stops vibrating during a disconnect with Auto-Stop, or keeps vibrating at the last intensity level until it reconnects.

Long-distance connectivity is also excellent. The toy connects to your phone over Bluetooth, and your phone connects to your partner’s phone over Wi-Fi or cell data. Since the Bluetooth connection is strong, long-distance play works well as long as your internet connection is decent. Sessions stay stable, commands go through reliably, and locking your phone or switching apps doesn’t disrupt control.

One quirk: if you start a session on Wi-Fi and then switch to cell data, the first switch can drop control and require a quick re-invite. After that, switching works normally. To avoid this, start the session on cellular data – for some reason if you do that, you can switch freely between cell data and Wi-Fi without issue.

The Lovense Dolce doesn’t include a physical remote control. A remote lets you adjust the toy by feel – without pulling out your phone. Though there’s other downsides like less depth and no visual feedback to help your partner know what your toy’s doing. If you want to consider options with physical remotes, see our recommendations in these guides:

• best remote and app-controlled vibrators (all types of vibrators)
• best wearable vibrators (wearables only).

In the next sections, I’ll cover the OhMiBod Club Vibe’s remote features and connectivity.

Here’s the main conclusion:

The remote itself is great – a longer range and a reliable connection set it apart from many panty-vibe remotes. But the toy gives little to control: just one intensity level, a few pulsing patterns, and sound-responsive control. The lack of steady vibration settings is a big downside.

If you want a great remote on a toy with stimulation worth controlling, go with the VeDO Niki (about half the price).

The Club Vibe’s remote is functional but flawed.

The toy itself gives the remote almost nothing to work with: you can toggle its single power level on or off, send a “burst” of that same power level by holding the burst button, and cycle through a short loop of four vibration patterns without the ability to adjust their strength.

The remote also has a music/sound-reactive mode, like many apps have, where the toy vibrates in response to ambient sound picked up by a mic on the remote. But the vibes are at one fixed intensity – no softer vibrations for softer sounds.

And since the mic is on the remote, keeping it in your pocket causes more vibrations from your clothes rustling than the sound around you. There’s also a sensitivity adjustment with three settings, indicated by how brightly the power button glows – I couldn’t see any difference between the brightness levels, and I couldn’t feel any difference in how the toy responded between settings.

Partner feedback is better than some. The power button blinks in time with the vibration patterns, so my partner can actually tell what my toy is doing. But it only blinks like this for patterns which most people don’t use much. And the display keeps blinking patterns even when the toy is off – so I can’t fully trust the indicator if something’s gone wrong.

The remote is also comfortable to hold and the buttons feel good. There are four distinct buttons, the click is crisp and satisfying, and the remote’s small size sits naturally in my hand. The buttons are easy to tell apart by touch, but with this many buttons, I still need to glance down to remember which one does what.

If a physical remote is what drew you to the Club Vibe, the VeDO Niki is a better choice for most people. It has a great remote – and more importantly, the toy itself is much better at about half the cost.

The OhMiBod Club Vibe’s remote connectivity is outstanding.

Its connection is reliable through common interference. Body tissue is the main thing that often breaks a remote’s signal during partnered play. Water-rich materials like your body weaken a remote’s signal – and your body often comes between your toy’s receiver and your partner with the remote.

Our body-interference test simulates this scenario at three progressively challenging angles, and the Club Vibe holds a stable connection through all of them. Several panty-vibe remotes I have tested drop the connection at one or more of these positions, so a clean pass through all three is a real strength. Our test also runs harsher than typical real-world conditions, so partnered play should stay reliable in practice.

Button presses register with no perceptible lag – the toy reacts the instant I press, keeping the rhythm of play intact. And there’s no annoying reconnection routine when starting to play – the remote’s automatically connected. Though you have to make sure both the toy and remote are turned on separately.

The remote reaches about 200 feet in our open-air max range test – measured with clear line-of-sight and no body interference. That’s by far the longest of any panty-vibe remote I have tested; the next-longest, the We-Vibe Moxie+, reached about 125 feet in the same test. Real-world range will be somewhat shorter once objects and body interference come in, but the Club Vibe has an outstanding signal strong enough to register at a far distance.

The Lovense Dolce has some of the best on-toy controls of any wearable I’ve tested. While you’ll probably use the app most of the time, the on-toy controls are still helpful if you don’t want to hold something or when straightening the spine to use the Dolce like a handheld vibe.

A pair of +/- buttons on the external arm lets you step up or down through 3 power levels and 4 patterns. The two buttons are nice, because you can backtrack instead of having to cycle thorugh every setting on a loop. And the buttons are raised, so you can find them easily without having to look.

The buttons only give you three steady power levels; the full range lives in the app. But through the app, you can set those three preset levels to be whatever intensities you enjoy most – so they’ll be levels you’ll actually use.

The Club Vibe’s on-toy controls are even more limited than what most panty vibrators offer – the single button is a power switch to turn the toy on, but can’t control the vibrations at all from the on-toy button – you need the remote.

The button is squishy and takes firm pressure to register, with no tactile click to confirm the press worked. And because the toy sits between your body and your underwear, that firm press pushes the toy uncomfortably against your body when you’re starting or stopping it.

In practice this rarely matters during use – the remote handles everything else, and the on-toy button only comes into play at the very beginning or end of a session. But it does mean there’s no real on-toy fallback if you’d rather skip the remote or if you want to try to use the toy like a handheld vibe.

The Lovense Dolce has good adjustability, and is the most secure fit out of all my dual-stim wearables. It doesn’t budge whether using it in bed, walking around the house, or even during heavier activity like running or jumping.

The girthy internal arm keeps the toy fully inserted, and prevents it from swaying side to side. Many of my other dual-stim toys start to loosen and work themselves out of place with movement.

And it has the good adjustability too. Many other strong dual-stimulation wearables, like the Lelo Ida Wave and Fantasy For Her G-spot Stimulate-Her – are simply flexible, and spring back. You can’t change their shape to fit your body better. But the Dolce has an adjustable spine you can shape to fit you better.

The Dolce holds at the angle you set it to. It even adjust a little side to side so you can nudge the external arm toward one side of your clit or the other. However, you can’t make either arm shorter or longer. It fits my anatomy okay, but you’re out of luck if you end up needing a longer clit arm, or shorter G-spot arm. So it’s still somewhat dependent on your personal anatomy.

If you are concerned about fit, a safer way to replicate a dual-stimulation toy is to pair the Lovense Lush Mini or Lush 4 for G-spot stimulation with the Lovense Ferri for clitoral stimulation. You can clip the Ferri in your underwear at the most stimulating position, so you’re not restricted to the set arm length of the Dolce.

Once the Dolce inserted, it’s actually difficult to adjust because of how firm the hinge is – a little annoying until you find the right fit, but convenient for the tight hold. This rigidity and girth works great for a secure fit, but it does cause some issues with comfort – primarily when walking around.

The OhMiBod Club Vibe 3.OH has one of the least secure fits of any panty vibrator I’ve tested. For a panty vibrator to fit well, it has to have a magnet that secures it to your underwear like the Lovense Ferri and VeDO Niki have, among others. This panty vibe just slips loosely into your underwear.

Without a magnet, I have to rely on tight clothing to hold it close to my clit, which just doesn’t work well.

Even lying down, the Club Vibe shifts around inside my underwear – especially when I roll onto my stomach, where it falls forward too high. During light or heavy activity like walking around, going upstairs, or working out it doesn’t fall out, but it shifts around a ton and doesn’t stay in contact with your clit – so the stimulation’s bad.

If you want a panty vibrator that stays where you put it, go with the Lovense Ferri if you want app control or the VeDO Niki if you’d prefer a physical remote. Both are great, magnetically secured panty vibrators.

The Lovense Dolce can be a bit uncomfortable, mainly when walking around. In bed, it can be comfortable in the right position and depending on your preferences for girth.

The same things that keep it securely in place are what affect comfort: the bulbous arm is most comfortable to those who don’t mind a stretch and a full feel. I prefer internal toys that are slimmer, so the Dolce is most comfortable to me when laying flat. If I try to bend forward, it starts to press painfully at my vaginal opening and against my bladder.

The adjustable, but somewhat rigid hinge also gets in the way once you’re not laying flat. There’s no squish to cushion your pubic bone, and when you’re walking, this can get pushed too hard against you. Especially if you’re wearing clothes that will force the clit arm firmly against your body.

None of this is unusual for a strong dual-stimulation wearable. They’re generally the bulkiest wearables there are. They’re really only designed for in-bed use, and most don’t even stay fully inserted unless you’re lying down.

If you’re sensitive to girth and pubic-bone pressure, the slimmer Fantasy For Her G-spot Stimulate-Her may be more comfortable in bed – but you give up the Dolce’s stronger, stimulation and its app control. And if what you really want is a toy to wear comfortably while you’re up and moving around, combine the Lovense Ferri panty vibrator with the Lovense Lush 4. You can control them together in the same great Lovense app.

The Club Vibe’s loose fit makes it less comfortable than magnetically secured panty vibrators.

The loose fit isn’t as bad in bed since the toy’s not moving around a ton. Nothing actively hurts – no pinching, no pressure on my pubic bone, no sharp seams. But the toy is rigid, firm, and just sits loosely in your underwear, so it doesn’t exactly hug your body comfortably either.

Light activity is where the loose fit becomes a bigger distraction. The toy shifts inside my underwear with each step. The loose vibrations tickle as they lightly touch my clit instead of pressing into it, and the rigid, firm toy bumps against me when I walk up and down stairs. Not necessarily painful, but it pulls my attention away from the stimulation in a way the better-fitting panty vibes don’t.

If comfort matters, the VeDO Niki and NS Novelties Techno Lucy are some of my most comfortable panty vibrators. Each is form-fitting and magnetically secured.

Unfortunately, the Lovense Dolce is louder than most wearables I’ve tested, especially on its higher settings – a bit expected, since both its motors are powerful.

Decibel readings range from 43 dBA on low to about 57 dBA on high. On those higher settings the vibrations also take on a slight grating quality rather than the kind of clean, consistent hum of the Lovense Lush 4 that blends in with other background sounds more easily.

The Dolce did worse than many wearables in our Background Noise Masking subtest, where I wear the toy while my partner listens from three feet away and we play pink noise through a speaker at set volumes (56, 62, and 68 dBA). Its lowest strength was masked by the quietest background noise we played, but on the middle and high strengths we had to raise the audio to our moderate volume (62 dBA) before he could no longer hear it. Plenty of wearables – including the Lush 4 and Lelo Ida Wave – were fully masked by that quietest audio.

For the closed-door test, my partner listens directly outside our closed bedroom door while I use the Dolce like a handheld toy. Wearing dampens sound, and the Dolce works well handheld because you can straighten the spine and grip the clit arm like a handle, so holding it gives us the most conservative results. My partner couldn’t hear the low setting through the door, but the middle and high came through clearly. Turning a box fan to its lowest setting was enough to mask both.

If you want a more discreet dual-stimulation wearable without giving up much power, the Lelo Ida Wave stays fully masked at our quietest tested background level on every setting.

The OhMiBod Club Vibe 3.OH is a quiet panty vibrator. But better panty vibrators like the VeDO Niki and NS Novelties Techno Lucy are just as discreet, and better overall.

The Club Vibe is in the most discreet group of wearables I’ve tested for our Background Noise Masking subtest. My partner listens from three feet away while I wear the toy and we play pink noise through a speaker at quiet, moderate, and loud volumes (56, 62, and 68 dBA). He couldn’t hear the Club Vibe at any of the three background-noise levels. It is definitely audible in our room without any background audio playing – but every wearable I’ve tested is, no matter how gentle and quiet its vibrations are.

For our closed-bedroom-door test, my partner stands directly outside the bedroom while I use the toy in bed. I use it like a handheld toy since wearing dampens sound, and some people want the flexibility to safely re-position the toy or move it around – holding it instead of wearing it gives us the most conservative results. He couldn’t hear the Club Vibe at all from the other side of the door.

But it’s not hard to find a panty vibrator at this same level of discretion. The VeDO Niki and NS Novelties Techno Lucy are similarly quiet and better in other important areas.

The Lovense Dolce has a short battery life – in our test it ran 45 minutes with both arms vibrating at their highest power before dying: among the shortest of any wearable I’ve tested.

That 45-minute figure is a worst case, though. It’s measured at constant full power on both motors. Since you’ll likely spend plenty of time on lower settings, or with only one of the motors running strong, your real runtime will likely be longer. For a typical solo session in bed – where the Dolce is at its best – that’s usually enough, as long as you charge it beforehand.

If you want to go longer between charges, the Lelo Ida Wave lasted 135 minutes at full power in our test, though its stimulation isn’t as strong. Or pair the Lovense Lush 4 and Lovense Ferri which both have a run time of 2 or more hours on high.

During our testing, the OhMiBod Club Vibe lasted 40 minutes continuously running on its only power level – short of an hour, and the lowest of any panty vibrator I have tested. The runtime is a hard ceiling too: with only one power level, there are no lower settings to fall back on to stretch the battery the way you can with most panty vibrators.

If runtime matters to you, the Lovense Ferri lasted 168 minutes at max power in our test – more than four times longer than the OhMiBod Club Vibe – and is about $20 cheaper.

The Lovense Dolce is very easy to clean because it’s fully waterproof – rated IPX7. You can rinse it under a running faucet or fully submerge it in soapy water.

The OhMiBod Club Vibe is easy to clean. It’s rated IPX7 waterproof, so I can rinse it under a faucet or submerge it without worrying about water damage.

One oddity worth mentioning is that OhMiBod’s own product listings discuss the Club Vibe as “splash-proof” rather than waterproof. When I reached out to OhMiBod about the discrepancy, they confirmed in writing that the toy is genuinely IPX7-rated and fully waterproof – but they label it splash-proof on their site as a precaution because they say the pin charger might wear over time with repeated use.

Because of the odd situation, we did a quick check on this product ourselves (not as rigorous as the official standardized IPX7 testing). We filled our bathroom sink with water and submerged this product for 20 minutes. It has continued to work fine. And to get an IPX7 rating (which this toy has), it has to undergo standardized immersion testing in a meter deep of water for 30 minutes without allowing harmful water damage. Because of our own quick check and the fact this toy has an IPX7 rating, we personally feel comfortable submerging it, but you can decide for yourself what you’re comfortable with.

The Lovense Dolce has excellent build quality. It’s covered in smooth, firm, body-safe silicone, and the central hinge feels strong and solid, with no loosening in the time I’ve owned it. I’ve had mine since 2021 when it was still called the Quake, and it still works like it did when I bought it.

The Club Vibe’s build feels cheaper than its price suggests. The back of the toy hard plastic, but even the front’s silicone is thin and feels plastic-y, without the plushness or give of many panty vibrators. Both the toy and the remote have a lightweight, somewhat hollow feel to them. The on-toy button is squishy and lacks a satisfying click, but the remote’s silicone buttons are crisp and feel nice.

That said, nothing has rattled or broken in our testing, and the Club Vibe has held up reliably so far. But other panty vibrators in this price range, like the Lovense Ferri, feel sturdier and better-made.
