A Womanizer vibrator is a clitoral stimulator that uses gentle air pulses instead of a buzzing motor. The brand calls this Pleasure Air, and it is why so many people search for Womanizer by name. This guide explains how the technology works, compares the four models we stock in Canada today, covers the newer models we don't carry, and walks through choosing, using and caring for one.
The short version: For most people, the Womanizer Premium 2 ($159.20 CAD) is the best all-rounder, with 14 intensity levels, Autopilot and up to 240 minutes of run time. The Classic 2 ($149.99) is simpler. The Liberty 2 ($95.20) suits travel, and the Starlet 3 ($99.99) is the gentlest start.

How does a Womanizer vibrator work?
It does not rub or buzz against the skin. Instead, a soft head sits over the clitoris and moves air in rapid pulses, which creates a sucking and massaging feeling. The product listings for every model we stock describe it the same way: Pleasure Air "stimulates without direct contact."
That indirect touch matters because the clitoris is very sensitive. Cleveland Clinic notes that the glans, the small visible part, "has about 10,000 nerve endings that make it incredibly sensitive." It also explains that the whole clitoris is "about 3.5 to 4.25 inches long," and that the internal part "branches out around your vagina" (Cleveland Clinic).
So why do people call it a vibrator? Mostly habit. Shoppers type "womanizer vibrator," and many stores file these toys under vibrators. Technically, most models are air-pulse or suction toys. If you want to know how they differ from other suction toys, our clit sucker guide explains the whole category, and our rose toy guide covers the viral cousin.
Air pulses vs vibration: which suits you?
Neither is better for everyone. They simply feel different, and many people end up owning one of each.
- Air pulses feel like a light sucking or fluttering sensation. Because nothing rubs the glans, people who find direct buzzing too sharp often prefer them.
- Vibration spreads through a wider area and works well when pressed against the vulva, the hood or a partner's body. It also suits people who like firmer contact.
- Positioning: an air-pulse head needs to sit over the clitoris with a light seal. A vibrator is more forgiving about where you hold it.
If you have only used vibrators before, expect a short learning curve. Most people find the right angle within a session or two.

Our quick decision rule: buy the Premium 2 if you want one toy for years, the Liberty 2 if it has to fit in a bag, and the Starlet 3 if you are not yet sure air pulses are for you.
Womanizer Premium 2: best all-rounder
The Premium 2 ($159.20 CAD) is the model we point most shoppers to. It has 14 intensity levels, the widest range we carry, so very sensitive and less sensitive users can both find a setting that works.
Two features set it apart. Smart Silence means it only switches on when it touches skin and goes to standby when you lift it away. Autopilot cycles through intensities on its own, which helps if pressing buttons breaks your focus. The listing gives a run time of up to 240 minutes on a 120-minute charge, and it comes with two head sizes.
Who should skip it: anyone who wants something tiny. At 15.5 cm long, it is bigger than the Starlet 3 (11.7 cm) and the Liberty 2 (about 10.5 cm). The listing describes it as body-safe silicone, free of phthalates, BPA and latex.
Womanizer Classic 2: the simple choice
The Classic 2 ($149.99 CAD) keeps things straightforward. It offers 10 intensity levels, two stimulator heads for a better fit, and an IPX7 rating for the bath or shower.
Its stand-out extra is Afterglow, which drops back to the lowest setting so you can wind down gently. There is no Smart Silence or Autopilot, and the listing does not state a run time.
Who it suits: people who want fewer modes and no automatic features. Journal du Geek's French buying guide calls it "le meilleur rapport qualité-prix," or the best value for money in the range (Journal du Geek). In our store the Premium 2 costs only about $9 more, so compare the two before you decide.
Womanizer Starlet 3: the gentle starter
The Starlet 3 ($99.99 CAD) is small, light and simple, with 6 intensity levels from gentle to strong. At 11.7 cm long, it sits comfortably in the palm.
It charges through magnetic USB pins in about 30 minutes, and the listing gives a run time of about 30 minutes. That is enough for most solo sessions, but not for long, slow play.
Who it suits: first-timers who want to try air pulses without spending more. The trade-off: fewer levels and the shortest battery life of the four. If you already know you like strong stimulation, the extra levels on the Premium 2 are worth it.
Womanizer Liberty 2: best for travel
The Liberty 2 ($95.20 CAD) is built to be packed. It weighs 70 g, measures about 10.5 by 5 cm, and has a travel lock so it can't switch on in a suitcase.
It comes with a protective case and cover, and the listing gives 8 intensity levels, an IPX7 rating, and about 120 minutes of run time on a 60-minute charge. That battery life is four times longer than the Starlet 3's.
Who it suits: anyone who travels or shares a home and wants a discreet toy. Journal du Geek notes its protective shell makes it easy to take everywhere. The trade-off is range: 8 levels against 14 on the Premium 2.
Other models: Next, Duo 2, OG and Pro40
Womanizer makes more models than we carry. Here is what the newer and older names mean, so you can compare listings elsewhere.
- Womanizer Next: uses what the brand calls 3D Pleasure Air, with a feature called Climax Control. Journal du Geek reports it offers three stimulation depths, 14 intensity levels, Smart Silence and up to 240 minutes of run time, and launched at €20 more than the Premium 2 (Journal du Geek).
- Womanizer Duo 2: adds internal G-spot stimulation to the air-pulse head, according to the same guide.
- Womanizer OG: adapts the brand's signature technology to internal stimulation.
- Womanizer Pro40: an earlier model, which Journal du Geek credits with making the brand's name.
We don't stock these four today. If you want internal and clitoral play in one toy, our clitoral vibrators guide compares dual toys we do carry.
How to choose a Womanizer
Pick by how you will use it, not by the price tag. These five questions narrow it down fast.
- How sensitive are you? Very sensitive users often live at the lowest settings, so any model works. If you need strong stimulation, more levels give more headroom.
- How long are your sessions? The Starlet 3 lasts about 30 minutes; the Premium 2 lasts up to 240.
- Do you travel? The Liberty 2's lock and cover make it the obvious pick.
- Do buttons distract you? Autopilot on the Premium 2 takes over the changes for you.
- Do you need a better fit? The Premium 2 and Classic 2 both come with two head sizes.
A note on budget: all four sit between about $95 and $160. Spending more mainly buys battery life, intensity range and comfort features, not a different core sensation.
What each budget gets you
Here is how the range lines up by price in our store today.
- Under $100: the Liberty 2 ($95.20) or the Starlet 3 ($99.99). Choose the Liberty 2 for battery life and travel, or the Starlet 3 for the simplest controls.
- $140 to $160: the Classic 2 ($149.99) or the Premium 2 ($159.20). For about $9 more, the Premium 2 adds four extra levels, Smart Silence and Autopilot.
Every model on this list is rechargeable, so there are no batteries to buy.
Is a Womanizer waterproof?
Is Womanizer waterproof? Yes. All four models we stock are rated IPX7, and their listings describe them as fully submersible for the bath or shower.
Two practical points. First, charge the toy only when it is completely dry, since the charging pins sit on the body. Second, water rinses away lube, so plan to reapply if you use it in the bath.
Using a Womanizer for the first time
Start low and keep the head still. Air-pulse toys feel different from vibration, and many people find the first try surprisingly intense.
- Charge it fully before the first use.
- Add a little water-based lube around the rim of the head to make contact more comfortable.
- Place the opening over the clitoris so it forms a light seal. Don't press hard; gentle contact works best.
- Begin on the lowest setting. The Starlet 3 and Premium 2 listings both advise this, then increasing gradually.
- Try small changes in angle rather than moving the toy around. A tiny shift can change the feeling a lot.
If the sensation is too much, try placing the head over the hood rather than directly on the glans. You can also bring it into partner play: hold it in place during sex, or let your partner control it.
Troubleshooting common problems
Most first-try problems come down to the seal or the setting. Try these fixes before deciding the toy isn't for you.
- "I can barely feel it." The head is probably not sealed. Reposition so the opening sits over the clitoris, try the other head size if your model has one, and raise the level slowly.
- "It's too intense." Drop to the lowest level, move the head onto the hood, or hold it slightly away so the seal is looser.
- "It keeps switching off." On the Premium 2, Smart Silence pauses the motor when the head leaves the skin. That is normal, and it restarts on contact.
- "The battery died fast." The Starlet 3 runs about 30 minutes per charge. If you like longer sessions, the Liberty 2 or Premium 2 will suit you better.
Care, cleaning and safety
Wash the head after every use and keep the toy for your own use, or clean it well before it touches anyone else. Planned Parenthood says "it's best to use one made of a body-safe, non-porous material," and advises: "Wash your sex toys with mild soap and water after you use them" (Planned Parenthood).
- Clean the head: the Classic 2, Premium 2 and Starlet 3 listings all say to clean with mild soap and water after each use. Rinse inside the opening, where fluids collect.
- Dry and store: let it air-dry, then store it in a cool, dry place, as the Premium 2 listing advises.
- Charge with care: use the cable it came with, and only on a dry toy.

Alternatives we stock
If you like the idea of air pulses but want app control, two toys outside the Womanizer range are worth a look.
- We-Vibe Melt 2 ($127.20 CAD): its listing says it uses Pleasure Air technology, with 12 intensity levels, Smart Silence, app control and up to 120 minutes of run time. It is designed to slip between partners during sex.
- Lovense Tenera 2 ($198.89 CAD): an app-controlled suction toy with a wide suction mouth and an IPX7 rating. The listing gives up to 78 minutes of run time and a maximum noise level of 43 decibels, and you can create and save your own patterns.
Both are good picks for long-distance couples, since a partner can control them through an app.
FAQ
Is a Womanizer a vibrator?
Not quite. Most models use air pulses rather than a vibrating motor, so they work without direct contact. People still call them vibrators because they are sold alongside them.
Which Womanizer is best for beginners?
The Starlet 3 is the gentlest and simplest, with 6 levels. If you can spend a little more, the Premium 2 gives far more range and battery life, which you will grow into.
What is the difference between the Premium 2 and the Classic 2?
The Premium 2 has 14 levels, Smart Silence and Autopilot. The Classic 2 has 10 levels and an Afterglow wind-down setting. Both are IPX7 and come with two head sizes.
Is a Womanizer waterproof?
All four models we stock are rated IPX7 and can be used in the bath or shower. Dry the toy completely before charging it.

It depends on the model. The listings give about 30 minutes for the Starlet 3, 120 minutes for the Liberty 2 and up to 240 minutes for the Premium 2.

The Next adds 3D Pleasure Air and Climax Control, with three stimulation depths. It costs more, and we don't currently stock it. The Premium 2 shares its 14 levels and battery life.
What lube can I use with a Womanizer?
Use a small amount of water-based lube around the rim of the head. Water-based formulas are safe with silicone and rinse off easily.
