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

Here’s the main conclusion:

The OhMiBod Foxy’s clit stimulation is just decent – strong on paper, but its straight, fairly heavy body doesn’t deliver that power to your clit well. The motor is strong, the rumbliness is average, and the stimulation area slips out of position too easily for steady contact. I can’t orgasm with it hands-free, like I can with the Lovense Ferri.

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

Here’s the main conclusion:

The Niki is one of the most stimulating panty vibrators and one of the few I can orgasm with hands-free. It’s strong, transfers the vibes where they should go, and is the most rumbly panty vibe I’ve tested. If you value raw power most, go with the stronger Lovense Ferri. If strong, rumbly vibrations matter more, go with the Niki.

The OhMiBod Foxy’s clit motor reaches a strong top power of 8.5 out of 10 with only a few panty vibes, like the Lovense Ferri and the NS Novelties Techno Lucy, hitting higher top powers. But the Foxy’s design doesn’t transfer that strength to your clit as well as other panty vibrators.

Across its seven power levels, the Foxy spans a wide range – a gentle 1 out of 10 at the bottom rising gradually to that strong 8.5 top. So its vibrations cover good warmup levels, moderate settings, and strong levels for the finish.

But the vibrations only transfer well to your clit when you situate it just right. The toy is straight, fairly heavy, and has a large rounded bumpout near the clit end. So it tends to pull down in my underwear or roll off slightly to the side, so the bumpout (the part in contact with your clit) slips off the ideal spot. Though it stays near or partially in contact with my clit. For me, it’s most consistent when I’m sitting up in bed and not moving around much.

But the lack of the more direct, consistent clit contact means it doesn’t feel quite strong enough to me, and I can’t orgasm with it hands-free like I can with the Lovense Ferri or VeDO Niki.

The Niki’s clit motor hits a top power of 8.0 out of 10 – great power, but not the strongest panty vibrator out there. Both the Lovense Ferri and NS Novelties Techno Lucy are stronger on high power, though both are also noticeably buzzier than the Niki. Where the Niki stands out isn’t raw power, though – it’s that the broad, flexible, curved design delivers that power to your body unusually well – essential for good stimulation in a hands-free toy. Among panty vibrators, only the Ferri transfers more of its motor’s strength to the clit.

For me, the Niki’s 8.0 top strength is enough power to orgasm hands-free. If top vibration strength is your main priority, go with the Ferri – but the Niki is plenty powerful for most people.

The Niki has six power levels spanning a wide range, from a very gentle 1.0 for warmup up to 8.0 at the top. That low end matters more with a wearable than with a handheld because you can’t just lift a panty vibrator off your body when things start feeling too intense – it’s nice to be able to dial down without reaching to pull the toy out of place.

Vibration transfer is where the Niki really stands out from most panty vibes. With a handheld you can position the vibrator exactly where you want it and just press harder to make the vibes feel more intense; with most wearables, you can’t, so the toy’s shape has to naturally transfer the vibrations where they should go. And the Niki’s shape does that well – its broad, flexible, curved design stays consistently in contact with my body transferring the vibrations right to my clit.

I wear it two different ways: with the top near my clit and the back end toward my vagina, or my preferred “upside-down” way with the top just under my clit and the rest of the toy wrapped up around my pubic bone. The vibrations transfer really well either way, but the toy stays even tighter to my body with the upside-down method.

The Niki’s curve also lets you press harder when you want to for more stimulation – something flat panty vibes can’t do. When you’re sitting, you can shift your weight against the end of the toy that’s opposite your clit. The surface pushes against the base and the curve tilts the clit end to press more firmly into you making the vibes feel stronger. It’s the closest a hands-free wearable gets to the better pressure control of a handheld.

We rate panty vibrators with rumbly vibrations higher than buzzy ones because most people prefer them. But plenty of people enjoy buzzy vibes too, so this is up to your personal preference.

The Foxy isn’t particularly rumbly. Like almost all panty vibrators I’ve tested, it’s centered in the moderately buzzy frequency range – the Lovense Ferri sits in the same place, so neither is rumbly.

Its lowest power level is moderately rumbly at 66 Hz, but that’s the warmup setting – too gentle for the rumbliness to come through in any meaningful way. From there, frequency climbs as power does: the Foxy is moderately buzzy through the middle of its range at around 99 Hz, and extremely buzzy at 122 Hz on its top setting. And because the Foxy’s transfer is inconsistent, you’ll likely spend most of your time on the upper, buzzy settings to feel enough power.

If rumbly vibrations are what you want from a panty vibe, the VeDO Niki is the only panty vibrator I’ve tested with a deep, rumbly motor.

We rate rumbly vibrations higher than buzzy ones because most people prefer rumbly. But it’s a personal preference, and some people like buzzy vibrations more.

The Niki is the most rumbly panty vibrator we’ve tested. Every other panty vibrator I’ve tested – the Lovense Ferri, We-Vibe Moxie+, NS Novelties Techno Lucy, and Romp Party – center around around the moderately or extremely buzzy frequency range. The Niki is the only one with a primarily rumbly clit motor.

The Niki’s lowest settings are extremely rumbly, the middle settings stay moderately rumbly, and only the very top setting feels neutral – never becoming buzzy. All the other panty vibrators we’ve tested become buzzy on their top settings. The Niki’s rumbliness has real power behind it too – the motor is strong as well as deep.

If rumbliness is what you want from a panty vibrator, the Niki is the best choice – no other panty vibrator I’ve tested comes close. If you care more about raw power than rumbliness, the Ferri is excellent – it’s less rumbly, but it’s stronger with excellent vibration transfer, and I can orgasm hands-free from it just as easily as from the Niki.

Like all panty vibrators, the OhMiBod Foxy 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.

Like all panty vibrators, the VeDo Niki 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.

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

Here’s the main conclusion:

The OhMiBod app is pretty good, sitting a tier below Lovense and Satisfyer, but much better than We-Vibe.

Its connectivity is excellent – nearby Bluetooth and long-distance modes hold a solid connection on par with Lovense’s. But the features themselves are clunky and don’t provide as much customization as the better apps.

The Lovense Ferri is a better panty vibrator if you want the best app.

The VeDo Niki 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 OhMiBod Remote app’s close-range features are usable but unintuitive. The basics all work, but they’re poorly labeled, split across more screens than they need to be, and don’t have the polish of Lovense’s or Satisfyer’s apps. The Lovense Ferri is better if you want the best app.

The biggest drawback is constant intensity control – the thing people often use the most. Setting a steady vibration is spread across three different screens, each with its own quirks:

Rhythm Screen is the preset-pattern selector, and constant power is buried in there as one of the patterns. You’d never find it on your own – it’s listed last, and oddly named “Ludicrous.” Once you do find it, you adjust intensity using your phone’s volume buttons rather than an on-screen control. The lowest volume positions don’t vibrate at all, and the volume bar disappears off screen after a moment, so a partner controlling my toy can’t easily glance over to see what they’ve set the power to.

Tap Screen provides a button that sends a constant pulse for as long as you hold it. To use it as a steady setting, you have to hold the button down for a long stretch, then let go and live with the small pause baked into the resulting loop. There’s an intensity slider labeled with a turtle-and-hare icon, which makes it look like it controls speed – but it controls power. (And a quirk: power resets to full every time you start a new tap, so if you wanted to tap a gentle pattern you can’t – you have to tap it out at full power and drop the intensity afterward.)

Touch Screen gives you a grid with an on-screen dot you drag around to control the vibrations. Dragging left or right adjusts intensity; dragging up or down adjusts speed. It’s not a true constant vibration – it’s a wobble that smooths into something close to steady on the fast-speed end. There’s no axis labeling the grid, just the same turtle-and-hare icon, so you have to figure out which axis does which by experimenting.

All three reach a working result, and once you’ve spent enough time with the app you can pick the one that matches what you want. But the better apps just give you a simple intuitive screen for controlling the power.

The other preset patterns include 6 options – with names like “The Moon” and “Club,” which tell you nothing about what they feel like. There are no waveform previews the way Lovense and Satisfyer show you, so the only way to learn the patterns is to try them all and remember which is which. Intensity is again adjusted with your phone’s volume buttons.

Pattern creation is limited to the Tap Screen – you tap out a rhythm and the app loops it back. There’s no waveform-drawing the way Lovense’s loop creation or Satisfyer’s Live Control let you, so anything that isn’t a series of pulses can’t be built here – no gradual ramps or smooth waves. You can save a tapped pattern to a Favorites list and pull it up again later.

You can connect and control multiple OhMiBod toys at the same time, but the toys aren’t independent – they vibrate in sync. So you can’t play the toys at different intensities or patterns.

OhMiBod’s sound-reactive mode, called Club Vibe, is strong. The toy reacts to ambient sound through the phone’s mic, with two adjustable sliders: one for sensitivity (how loud a sound has to be before the toy responds). And one for intensity (how strong the vibrations get when it does respond). It works as intended with a small caveat: at the very lowest intensity, the toy makes a high-pitched hissing noise without producing real vibrations. I can skip over this in other modes, but I can’t really control it in Club Vibe since it’s noise-responsive.

You can also sync to music through your Spotify account with the Music Vibes mode. It’s fine, but doesn’t follow the music that closely.

There’s a couple other features that don’t feel that helpful like Pulse mode that pairs the toy with an Apple Watch’s heart-rate monitor and an Oh!Dometer that just let’s you log your orgasms.

Everything works, it’s just clunky. For a better experience, consider the Lovense Ferri.

The OhMiBod app’s long-distance features are okay, but they take some learning. OhMiBod sits a step below Lovense and Satisfyer here – the basics work, but the features are limited compared to those apps.

Your long-distance partner uses the same Rhythm, Tap, and Touch control screens you’d use for close-range play, with all the same workarounds and quirks discussed in the previous section.

The OhMiBod app does have one nice bonus over Lovense during long-distance play: during a video call, both partners share an on-screen intensity slider for your toy, which means you can also adjust your own toy’s power instead of relying only on your partner, which is rare in an app.

The trade-off is that your partner can immediately undo whatever you just set, since the app has no built-in handoff mode. And between two people controlling intensity, there’s not much clarity for the controlling partner on where power is at.

The video call experience itself is great. Starting a call is easy – your partner sends a request, you get a clear notification and accept. The video quality is good on decent internet, the toy controls sit in a small panel at the bottom of the screen that doesn’t crowd the view of your partner, and locking your phone or backgrounding the app doesn’t drop the call.

Controlling while messaging is rougher. Chat threads are easy to follow and you can send photos – but not video clips or voice notes. There are no privacy features for shared media (like preventing screenshots), and you can only send a message while you’re actively controlling your partner’s toy. You can’t send a flirty message for them to see when they hop on the app.

The controls split awkwardly during chat sessions, too: the controlling partner selects the pattern but the wearer adjusts intensity via their phone’s volume buttons, leaving them with no on-screen indication of what intensity the toy is at.

Only one partner can connect a toy. If you both have OhMiBod toys, you cannot each control the other person’s toy like you can in Lovense’s or Satisfyer’s apps.

If long-distance partnered play is the main reason you’re shopping for a panty vibrator, the Lovense Ferri is a better choice, but OhMiBod’s app is decent for occasional long-distance play.

The OhMiBod Remote app’s connectivity is excellent – reliable in both nearby Bluetooth and long-distance modes.

For nearby play, the Foxy auto-connects fast. There’s no toy-selection screen in the app. Just turn the toy on, open the app, and your phone pairs to it automatically. The one tradeoff: if you and a partner are both trying to use OhMiBod toys in the same room, the lack of a selection screen can cause mix-ups about which phone connects to which toy. For most people that won’t come up, and the auto-connect just feels seamless.

Once connected, the Foxy’s connection holds through normal phone behavior like locking the phone, backgrounding the app, and swiping through other apps. Commands reliably go through. And on the rare occasion the signal does drop (like you walk too far away), the app reconnects automatically as soon as the signal is clear again. There’s one small caveat: if a “Play Remotely” prompt pops up while the toy is out of range, don’t tap it – that breaks the auto-reconnection. If you tap it by accident, closing and reopening the app reliably fixes things.

The Foxy is also stable through body interference: when a partner controls the toy from across the room at an angle with you between their phone and the toy, water-rich body tissue dampens Bluetooth signals. Our body-interference test simulates this at three progressively harder positions (and is harsher than real use), and the Foxy holds a stable connection at all three, including the most severe angle.

We also tested Bluetooth range by separating the phone from the Foxy until the connection dropped. It stayed connected until about 340 feet in our test (your own results may vary depending on obstructions – we test with a clear line of sight).

Long-distance connectivity is also excellent. As long as both partners’ internet or cell signal is decent, the long-distance session stays live. The OhMiBod app handles the messy parts of real-life phone behavior gracefully – locking your phone, briefly switching to another app, or swapping between Wi-Fi and cell data don’t drop the session, even during a long distance call. Commands keep going through reliably.

The one downside is that starting a long-distance video call has a bug, but it’s easy to work around. The flow asks the receiving partner to tap accept twice – first to allow toy control, then to accept the video call itself – and if they tap both prompts too quickly, the video call fails to start. Waiting a couple of seconds between the two taps works reliably, but it’s the kind of thing your partner has to remember each time. Long-distance messaging sessions without video don’t have this issue.

The OhMiBod Foxy 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 Niki’s remote features and connectivity.

Here’s the main conclusion:

The Niki has one of the better panty-vibe remotes – reliable connection, quick response, and fast, direct power buttons. Its main limitations are typical of remotes versus apps: less partner feedback and shorter range. Go with the Lovense Ferri for app control, but the Niki has great remote control, which can be nice if you don’t want you or a partner to be tied to a phone.

The Niki’s remote is great with a few minor downsides – most of which are typical of remotes compared to apps.

Power control is fast and direct – you can move forward and backward through the six power levels with dedicated + and – buttons. Pattern navigation uses a single-button cycle loop – clicking forward through the nine patterns one at a time, with no way to go backward to a previous pattern. In practice this doesn’t matter that much, since most people stay on steady vibrations rather than cycling through patterns. You can also adjust the intensity of each pattern.

The remote is comfortable to hold, but the buttons themselves are less tactile than the best panty-vibe remotes – they’re not raised enough to tell which is which by feel, so I have to look at the remote to find the right button – something you get used to as you use the remote more.

Like most remotes, the Niki’s gives your partner just a faint blink when you press a button – no way to tell what setting your toy is on. That’s fine if you’re using the Niki yourself and many partners won’t mind. Others find it less engaging when they can’t tell what your toy is doing and what you’re actually feeling. An app-controlled panty vibe gives your partner real-time visuals of the toy’s vibrations, which makes controlling it feel more engaging. If that’s a priority for you, the Lovense Ferri is the best app-controlled panty vibe, and Lovense has the best app of any brand.

The Niki’s remote connectivity is excellent, though its maximum range lands in the middle of the pack.

Body tissue between a remote and toy is typically the main thing that breaks a remote’s signal during partner control, but the Niki holds up well to this. Our body-interference test simulates this scenario at three progressively challenging angles, and the Niki holds a stable connection through all of them. Our test runs harsher than typical real-world conditions, so partner-controlled play should stay reliable in practice.

Button presses register with barely any delay – the toy reacts the moment my finger leaves the button, keeping the rhythm of play intact. And theres no reconnection routine required when starting to play – the remote is always connected.

The remote reaches about 60 feet in our open-air range test – measured with clear line-of-sight and no body interference. This is middle-of-the-road for the wearable vibrators’ remotes we tested and real-world range will likely be shorter once objects and body interference come in. But this gives you enough flexibility for most activities, and especially any same-room use. If you need an especially long range, many app-controlled toys stay connected farther – for instance, the Lovense Ferri stayed connected until 190 feet in our same test.

Like most panty vibrators, the Foxy’s on-toy controls are limited by design – the toy sits inside your underwear during use, so you’ll typically rely on the app.

A single button cycles through three steady power levels and two vibration patterns. The full seven-level power range only lives in the app. The trimmed-down three levels available from the button is actually a helpful choice for rare occasions you use the on-toy button (like if you want to use it like a handheld toy). It keeps you from clicking through a long string of settings to find the intensity you want. The two patterns mixed into the loop is something most people don’t want, but with only five settings, it’s still quick to tap through.

The button is well-placed: easy to feel without looking, and sits away from the plush bumpout. So while pressing it while wearing does push the toy against your vulva, the pressure is distributed more broadly and closer to the vagina, so it stays comfortable.

The on-toy button works fine as a backup, but the app is the main way you’ll use the Foxy.

Like most wearable vibrators the Niki’s on-toy controls are limited by design, since you’ll typically use the remote to control it. There’s a single button that cycles through a steady vibration and nine patterns – all at one fixed intensity. To use the toy’s full six-level power range, you need the remote.

The button itself has a subtle feel and sits further back on the toy, so it takes some reaching to press if for some reason you want to change settings without the remote. When you do press the button, the toy’s broad, flexible shape keeps the pressure comfortable against your body. The on-toy button works as a backup, but the remote is the main way you’ll use the Niki.

The Foxy stays securely in place in bed, while walking around it just requires readjusting at times, but it shifts a lot more during heavy movement like running or jumping.

The strong, large magnet holds clipped to my underwear – I don’t ever feel like it’s going to fall off. It locks enough of the body to your underwear that the toy doesn’t swivel too much side-to-side either.

In bed, the Foxy stays where the magnet is secured. The toy jostles a bit with the underwear as I shift, but the bumpout keeps good clitoral contact in bed where you’re not moving around much.

The Foxy moves around a bit more when you’re walking causing the bumpout to move off the ideal spot on my clit. The bumpout is pretty large, so it’s always maintaining contact somewhere fairly near my clit, but I have to adjust to keep it in a great spot.

Heavy activity is where the toy’s weight really starts working against it. The magnet itself doesn’t slip, but the toy is heavy enough to pull the underwear down a bit during bigger movements like jumping, running, or dancing, and the bump shifts around. The long, straight design doesn’t contour to the body for consistent, close contact.

Curved panty vibrators like the VeDO Niki(remote-controlled) and NS Novelties Techno Lucy(app-controlled) stay in better clit contact while moving.

In my experience the Niki stays securely in the ideal place when wearing it in bed and during normal everyday activity like walking or going up and down stairs – but it shifts more during heavy movement like running or jumping.

The Niki’s broad, flexible, curved design contours to your body, so it stays snug and doesn’t shift during light activity the way some slimmer or straight panty vibrators can. It’s also secured to your underwear by a magnet – essential for any panty vibrator to fit securely. The Niki’s magnet is on the weaker side compared to other panty vibrators, but in normal wear that’s not really an issue – the form-fitting shape prevents the kind of shifting, tilting, or movement that would pull the magnet off, and the magnet itself is slim and form-fitted to the toy so it doesn’t get bumped off easily. The magnet can come loose when you actively re-position the toy in your underwear, but otherwise has stayed attached for me.

Heavy activity is not as good. When running, the toy bounces on landings and the stimulation briefly pulls away before gravity returns it. With jumping jacks, it slid further down in my underwear, and I had to adjust the placement afterward. It never fell out, but during vigorous movement the form-fitting shape can’t fully prevent the toy from shifting, and the relatively weak magnet doesn’t pick up the slack the way a stronger one can.

If you specifically want a panty vibrator that holds securely under intense movement, the NS Novelties Techno Lucy holds up better. Otherwise, the Niki’s fit is reliable for the way most people will actually use it.

The Foxy is comfortable in bed, but the bumpout takes some getting used to when walking.

The Foxy’s bump is one of the more comfortable nub-style designs I’ve tested because it’s plush. The body itself isn’t really flexible, but the bumpout has nice cushioning, and a bit wider than most. So the pressure spreads out more evenly rather than concentrating into one spot, and the plushness helps it feel comfortable against my body – much better than the OhMiBod Club Vibe 3.OH’s firm nub.

When I’m walking, it shifts, and the amount of pressure it applies against my clit varies – sometimes a gentle press, sometimes firmer, which some people may find uncomfortable. If you prefer a more blanketed, consistent feel against your clit, a broader panty vibrator like the NS Novelties Techno Lucy or the VeDO Niki is a more comfortable pick.

The Niki is one of the most comfortable panty vibrators I’ve tested, and the comfort holds up just as well when I’m moving around as it does lying in bed.

That’s less common than you’d expect. Most panty vibrators are noticeably less comfortable during light activity than lying down – mostly because toys can poke or apply uneven pressure when walking – but not for the Niki. The Niki’s broad, flexible, curved shape distributes pressure evenly across my body, so there’s no digging in, no pinching when I close my legs, and no uncomfortable tapping when I move. It blankets the area rather than pressing into a single spot.

One wear note: I find the Niki most comfortable when worn upside-down (so the charging port end is facing upward), with the toy’s curve wrapping up around my pubic bone. The reverse orientation is still great, but “upsidown” is slightly more comfortable and stimulating for me.

The OhMiBod Foxy has quiet decibel readings, but it did worse than many wearables I’ve tested in our Background Noise Masking subtest.

Decibel readings on both low and high power were extremely quiet. The ambient room noise was 35 dBA, and our Sound Level Meter measured the Foxy at just 37.6 dBA on high – quieter than many vibrators, but decibel levels are only a part of the story.

For our Background Noise Masking subtest, I wear the toy while my partner listens from three feet away and we play pink noise through a speaker at quiet, moderate, and loud volumes (56, 62, and 68 dBA). At our quietest audio (56 dBA of pink noise), my partner could hear the Foxy at every vibration power

When wearing it, the lowest power had a distinct grating quality, that made it more noticeable. When I was sitting still, my partner couldn’t hear the middle power, but as I walked around, an occasional rattling sound came through. The high power was actually the cleanest of the three – just a hum that almost blended into background noise. Once we stepped the pink noise up to our moderate level (62 dBA) every vibration power was masked.

For our closed-bedroom-door test, my partner stands directly outside the bedroom while I use the toy in bed. He couldn’t hear the Foxy at all from the other side of the door on any power level.

Other panty vibrators were quieter including the VeDO Niki and NS Novelties Techno Lucy

The VeDO Niki is a very quiet panty vibrator – one of the areas it outperforms the Lovense Ferri a bit. Decibel readings on both low and high power were too quiet for our Sound Level Meter to pick up on – the ambient room noise was 35 dBA, and the Niki never measured higher than this.

It’s in the most discreet group of wearables I’ve tested for our Background Noise Masking subtest. I wear the toy while my partner listens from three feet away and we play pink noise through a speaker at quiet, moderate, and loud volumes (56, 62, and 68 dBA). My partner couldn’t hear the Niki at any vibration strength under any of our three tested volumes of background noise. It is definitely audible in our room without any background audio playing – but every wearable vibrator I’ve tested is audible in a fully silent room, 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. My partner couldn’t hear the Niki on its low or middle power levels. He could just barely hear it on high in our completely silent house – pretty faint, and easily masked by cars passing by outside. When I re-checked while actually wearing the Niki, the sound was significantly dampened and he couldn’t hear it on any setting.

The Foxy lasted 55 minutes at its highest power during our testing – short for a panty vibrator in this price range. Since you’ll use the Foxy’s lower and middle settings too, your actual runtime will be longer. But for long sessions, the Lovense Ferri is a better panty vibrator – it lasted 168 minutes in our test, about three times the Foxy’s runtime.

The Niki has a short battery life. It lasted 55 minutes continuously running at its highest power during our test – below the higher-end panty vibrators. Since you’ll use the Niki’s lower power levels too, your real-use runtime will likely be longer.

If long battery life is a priority, go with the Lovense Ferri – it lasted 168 minutes during our test, about three times the Niki’s runtime.

The OhMiBod Foxy is easy to clean. It’s IPX7 waterproof, so you can rinse it under a faucet or fully submerge it without worrying about water damage. OhMiBod doesn’t have the IPX rating listed on the Foxy’s product page, but we reached out by email and they confirmed it has an IPX7 rating.

Cleaning the Niki is straightforward in practice, but our rating is conservative because we couldn’t confirm the toy’s exact waterproof status. VeDO lists it as “splashproof – suitable for shower” on their site, which usually corresponds to an IPX5 or IPX6 rating. Products with those ratings are safe to clean under a running faucet or use in the shower, but IPX4 products (which are also sometimes called “splashproof”) are not. We emailed VeDO to confirm the exact IPX rating and didn’t hear back, so we rated the Niki’s cleaning based on not being able to run it under a faucet.

In practice I do run most of the Niki under a faucet without being especially careful, just keeping water away from the charging port and wiping that area with a cloth. I haven’t encountered any issues.

The Foxy feels well-built. The body is covered in smooth silicone with a small plush portion that feels luxurious.

The Niki feels well-built. It’s coated in smooth silicone with a small plastic section around the charging port, and the toy’s slight flex feels sturdy and adds to its comfort. I’ve had mine since 2021 and it’s continued to operate as expected. The plastic remote is very lightweight and cheap-feeling, but it functions well.
