If you are not familiar with the power of a heated vibrator, allow me to put you on to Lora DiCarlo’s new line of warming sex toys because, hi, yes, I cannot get enough of.
Warming vibrators are pretty much exactly what they sound like: Sex toys that have the functionality to heat up to be right around 104 degrees or so. They’re like a toasty, comforting heating pad, but for your vulva, and clitoris, and any other erogenous zone.

There are multiple reasons why someone might opt for a warming vibrator over a basic one, but personally? I’m a fan because they’re great for those who enjoy temperature play, which is using hot and cold sensations to heighten your arousal in the bedroom. (Looking at all of you who have ever played with ice before.)
Now, as someone who writes about sex for a living and has tried hundreds of sex toys for work and pleasure, I think I have a pretty solid ability to differentiate the good from the bad. (Obviously taking into consideration that the word “good” is subjective to each person because different strokes for different folks.)
But fucking 100+ toys in my lifetime has granted me this superpower of identifying great toys that I can then recommend to you. And I promise, Lora DiCarlo’s dual vibration warming massager Sway, $150, is one you’ll want to add to your cart.
First, let’s get into Sway’s unique features:
- The massager warms to 104 degrees, which admittedly sounds way too fucking hot to place anywhere near genitals, but trust the process. It’s the perfect temperature for inserting into your vagina. (More on this below.)
- It comes with not one, but two vibrating ends. Both can be used for external and internal use.
- It’s specifically contoured for “all over stimulation” pleasure spots.
- The product flexes seven intensity settings and three vibration patterns.
Alright, now for my very descriptive personal experience because I know you’re wondering
When I first pulled the massager out from the package, I started by just getting familiar with its texture and functions (as any person should do before diving head-first into masturbating).
I noticed there were four buttons: one to control the vibration on one side, one to control the vibration on the other side, the warming button, and the power button. Now I know, I know, that’s a shit ton of buttons that could easily ruin the mood if you press the wrong one in the moment, but it ended up being not a problem.
After playing around with the functionality a little more, I realized the vibrator wouldn’t automatically heat up once you turn it on—hence why there’s a warming button. (Oh, and important side note: The warming button is literally just a warming button. It’s not like a straightener where you can control the temp.)
When I turned the warming button on, I held each end of the Sway to see when it was going to heat up and how hot it would get. After a minute or two of impatiently waiting, I felt a slight heat? But it was absolutely nowhere close to the 104 degree fire I was expecting. To be honest, it basically felt how any other vibrator feels once you use it for a long period of time.
So I waited a couple more minutes to see if it was gonna get any hotter—and even held both ends up to my face to see if maybe the skin on my cheeks would sense the heat better than my hands could, but it didn’t.
So I gave up. I got tired of waiting and said fuck it and started masturbating. And fam, let me just tell you, this shit was hot. Literally and figuratively.
Once I placed the massager around my vulva and eventually inside of me, I Felt! That! Heat! Literally as soon as I slid it inside of my vagina, it was totally noticeable. I guess my genitals are way more sensitive and better at measuring temperature than my hands?
But y’all, the heat felt good. Like, so good. The warming feature made it feel like it was someone’s penis inside me or tongue on me instead of a lifeless vibrator being paired with my imagination. And honestly, the heat actually helped me stay in my head and think about a partner pleasing me instead of lil old me doing the deed all by myself in my bedroom.
Once I got used to that sensation, I then used the other vibrating end of the sex toy. Now the user manual that comes with Sway actually explains that each part of the massager is designed to fit around different anatomies, like, your vagina, booty, clitoris, etc. so you can actually flip the Sway to face forward or backward depending on what your body prefers.
Honestly, this gives you like four different options to find just the right angle and pressure. So while I spent most of the time stimulating my clit, after flipping between both vibrating ends, the feeling ended up being so enjoyable that I orgasmed after maybe five minutes of use. We love to see it.
The Verdict
Okay, so this toy offers you lots of options and versatility for pleasure, a warming sensation that is honestly The Move, and it replicates the feeling of what it would be like to be with another person right now, which I think we could all use after a year of this global pandemic.
But generally, I personally prefer much heavier, deeper, rumblier vibes, which this toy just doesn’t seem to have. (Though I was still able to orgasm.) If you’re like me and want stronger vibrations, then the Sway may not be the toy for you. Oh, and the charging port is also annoying to connect because it doesn’t really magnetize so it disconnects very easily?
But, y’all, to have a self-heating vibrator around whenever you want to fuck around with temperature play is a luxury. It’s literally a masturbator’s dream. And even if I wasn’t ~professionally~ reviewing this product, I would still opt for a warming vibrator instead of the basic.
Just be warned: These toys do fall on the more expensive side because they’re pretty high-tech (like, a whole warming feature, duh). Lora DiCarlo’s self-warming toy line specifically ranges from $95 to $150. But I’d totally consider them a good investment if you have $100+ to drop on a new sex toy right now.
Because trust me when I say, once you experience the warming sensation, you literally will not be able to go back to a non-warming sex toy. It’s just that much better, y’all.
