Automatic & Hands-Free

An automatic masturbator is a male stroker with a motor: it thrusts, rotates, sucks or vibrates on its own, so your hands are free and the rhythm never tires. It is for men who want a steadier, more intense or completely hands-free session than a manual sleeve gives, and for couples who want to hand the controls to a partner through a remote or an app.

Our automatic range runs from €24.95 to about €219, with models from IntoYou, XISE, Minothor, Tardenoche and Action. The mechanism is the real choice, because each one feels completely different; the price mostly follows the number of motors and whether there is an app.

The mechanisms

Thrusting: the sleeve moves up and down along the shaft, the closest imitation of intercourse. The Minothor Tornax (€39.95) has seven thrusting speeds and a removable sleeve; the IntoYou Tenkro (€59.95) adds five thrust patterns and a heated lid that warms up in about twenty minutes.

Thrusting and rotating: the sleeve also turns around the shaft, the two movements a hand makes. The Action Zyon Advance (€72.95) is shaped like a game controller with four rotation speeds and four thrusting frequencies under the thumbs; the IntoYou Egor (€111.95) does both and runs from the ActiveJoy app.

Suction and vibration: the Tardenoche Tronik 2.0 (€60.95) has two motors, three suction and ten vibration settings and a boost button. Suction is more intense and usually shorter than stroking.

Rubbing: the IntoYou Nextor (€110.95) moves two internal cylinders in opposite directions, with nine vibration settings on three motors.

Body masturbators: the XISE Sora (1.54 kg, 23.5 cm) and Eliza (1.83 kg) are small torsos with a vaginal and an anal entry that thrust and vibrate in seven patterns each and connect to an app. Their weight keeps them in place, which makes them truly hands free. The XISE Large Thrusting Machine II (2.6 kg, €139.95) stands on a surface and strokes in three speeds.

What to check before you buy

A removable sleeve: it is the only way to clean the inside properly. Noise: a motor strong enough to move a sleeve always makes a hum or a whirr, stroking machines most of all. Battery: expect 30 to 60 minutes of motor time; the XISE Sora runs about fifty minutes. Fit: most sleeves stretch, but check the stated length and entry width if you are larger than average. Heat: a cold sleeve is the most common complaint, so a heating function or warming the sleeve under the tap first makes a real difference.

Using it

Use plenty of water-based lubricant on the sleeve and on yourself, start on the slowest setting and let the machine settle before turning up. Hold the case lightly: pushing against a thrusting motor slows or stalls it. A pillow between the thighs or a flat surface turns most models hands free. Charge it before the evening, not during it.

Cleaning and care

Take the sleeve out, rinse it with warm water and a little mild soap or toy cleaner, turn it inside out if it allows, and let it dry completely before it goes back. Wipe the case and keep the motor and charging port dry. Most sleeves are TPE: dust them with cornstarch now and then so they stay soft, and use only water-based lubricant, never silicone lubricant or oil.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best type of automatic masturbator?

It depends on the feeling you want: thrusting for the closest thing to intercourse, rotating for a sensation a hand cannot copy, suction for intensity. Combination models such as the Action Zyon Advance or IntoYou Egor let you try two in one.

Are automatic masturbators loud?

Louder than a vibrator. Expect a steady hum or whirr; stroking machines are the loudest, suction models the quietest. A duvet muffles most of it.

Which lubricant should I use?

A water-based lubricant. Silicone lubricant and oil damage the TPE sleeves used in almost all automatic masturbators.

How long does the battery last?

Usually 30 to 60 minutes of motor time from one charge, less at full speed. Charge it after every one or two sessions.

Can a partner control it?

Yes, with the app models: the IntoYou Egor, XISE Sora and XISE Eliza can be run from a phone, so a partner can take over from the same room or from far away.

How do I clean an automatic masturbator?

Remove the sleeve, rinse it with warm water and mild soap, let it dry fully and dust it with cornstarch. Never put the motor unit under the tap unless it is stated as waterproof.
