Discretion isn’t always a concern when it comes to buying and using a vibrator. But if you live in a house full of other people (particularly with kids who are curious and prone to touching things that aren’t theirs), it very well might be a priority to have a quiet and sneaky sex toy in your collection. Thankfully, your favorite sex toy shops are loaded with discreet vibrators that offer subtlety, silence, and satisfying sex in equal measure.
Finding time to use a vibrator is often harder than it should be. Between work, social engagements, family responsibilities, and the always-growing list of shows you need to watch on Netflix, carving out a little Me Time (or even Us time with your partner) can be a serious challenge. The last thing you need is for your few, well-earned minutes of escape to be ruined by a vibrator that’s so loud it threatens to wake up the whole house or that makes you too self-conscious about the chainsaw-like sounds to actually get off.
And, of course, when we’re talking about discretion, we’re not only talking about volume—we’re also talking about toys that have a more streamlined or understated appearance. Toys that don’t attract a lot of visual attention. Toys that, well, don’t obviously look like sex toys. A quiet motor is key to keeping someone from barging in on your alone time. But you also want a go-to that you can throw in your nightstand — or toss into your suitcase — without giving it a second thought. It doesn’t matter who stumbles upon your favorite vibrator if that vibrator looks like a necklace, or tube of lip balm, or a small piece of abstract art. The nice part? There are so many of these stealth sex toys on the market that allow you to keep your sexy business on the DL. You can absolutely find a sex toy that isn’t obviously recognizable to the untrained eye, and that doesn’t sound like a threatening swarm of bees every time you turn it on. Sex toys so smart they practically disguise themselves? We’ll take 20. So read on for a few that pass the low-key “shhh” test or deliver on a particularly subtle aesthetic. You might find the chill, discreet vibe of your dreams. Our mission at SheKnows is to empower and inspire women, and we only feature products we think you’ll love as much as we do.

Crafted from supple silicone, the toy is incredibly smooth to the touch.

Girls Get Off Missy Image Credit: Girls Get Off Shoppers are obsessed with this clioral vibe from Girls Get Off, a cult-favorite, female-founded brand from New Zealand. The Missy is the epitome of small but mighty. “I came so hard I went deaf momentarily,” one reviewer wrote after taking the Missy for a spin, and yeah, OK, we’re intrigued. While shoppers say this vibe can get a little louder at the higher settings, the good part is it’s so effective, you won’t need to keep it there for long.

Iroha Mini Vibe Image Credit: Tenga. In addition to being incredibly adorable, the Iroha Mini Vibe is decidedly discreet. Its appearance leaves it looking more like a lip balm than a sex toy, and it boasts subtle vibrations that keep the volume to a minimum.
We-Vibe Moxie Panty Vibrator Image Credit: We-Vibe We-Vibe Moxie Panty Vibrator is exactly what it sounds like: a sex toy you can (discreetly!) slip into your underwear and wear all day long.

The subtle hum will delight (without disturbing others), and the shape will offer a few different kinds of stimulation.
Maude Vibe Image Credit: Maude Another discreet favorite courtsy of Maude, the Vibe looks like a small, sleek knickknack that could sit on your nightstand without raising any eyebrows. Hit that little button, though, and the Vibe provides three powerful speeds for you to enjoy, plus a solid 1.5-hour runtime that’s sure to get you where you need to go.
Crave Vesper Image Credit: Crave You can’t get more discreet than the Crave Vesper, which looks like a chic silver necklace until you tap the magic button on the side. Enjoy four powerful but super-quiet modes with this sleek and sneaky little vibe. Crave Vesper $69 on Amazon.com

Dame Products Rechargeable Quiet Silicone Wand Massager Image Credit: Dame The Dame Com was designed to be a seamless addition to partner play. Whereas other clitoral stimulators may feel bulky — and hard to make space for during intercourse — the Dame Com slips right over your clitoris to provide a little extra fun. The toy’s quiet motor and confounding appearance make it a particularly discreet way to spice things up in the bedroom. Rechargeable Quiet Silicone Wand Massager $129.99

This waterproof, pocket-sized bullet vibe is packed with 10 modes of pleasure and is tiny enough to tuck in your purse. Lovehoney Magic Bullet $16.99
Fin Finger Vibe Image Credit: Dame. Though finger vibrators require a little more effort than the average sex toy, they offer all kinds of discretion. Since finger vibrators are small, their motors tend to err on the quiet side. Plus, they rarely, if ever, resemble standard sex toys, so it’s unlikely anyone will stumble upon one and know exactly what it is.

Je Joue Mimi Clitoral Vibrator $99.99
