Any sex toy reviewer will tell you that the market is absolutely jam-packed with pricey new G-spot gadgets that are simply increasingly expensive variations on the same theme—which is why the new Bender from Unbound is actually remarkable. Priced at just $59, this slim pink silicon toy can be easily bent to stimulate your clit and G-spot simultaneously at whatever angle suits your anatomy best.
One of the hazards of experimenting with a new sensation like G-spotting is that not every toy is suitable for every body, and finding the right one for you can get expensive. Plus, there’s always the chance that you might not even like the sensation once you figure out where your G-spot is. That’s another reason why the Bender is great; if you buy it to explore internal stimulation, or a combo of internal and external, and you decide one way is not for you, you can also use this vibe just on your clit or just inside or wherever you or your partner(s) want a buzz of pleasure—the options are endless. Sure, it’s a little more expensive than, say, a Bullet vibe, but it’s also body-friendly and waterproof. I don’t love the magnetic USB charger, but it’s not a huge hassle, either.
Before the Bender, the Je Joue G-Kii was my normal go-to toy when I wanted an orgasm that was more fulfilling than just pounding it out with the Magic Wand. And while it offers a deeper, more rumbly vibration than the Bender, it isn’t as long, and adjusting the angles can get fiddly. Plus, I lucked out that the G-Kii even works with my anatomy; if it hadn’t, I’d be left with a $119 paperweight. I already knew I liked vibing my clit and G-spot at the same time when I picked up the Bender, so I was extra pleased to find it went deeper than the G-Kii and was generally easier to use.
While the Bender also offers a range of patterns and speeds, what it does best is just what it promises on the box—and inside of it.
