Review: Le Wand Dive

I once had a boyfriend who, after watching me orgasm so quickly and so strongly with a vibrator, looked at me mournfully and said, “Now women will never need men again.” We were both 25 at the time and inexperienced, and not just sexually.

I haven't thought about him or that conversation in years, but after the new Le Wand Dive brought me to orgasm pretty much on contact, the memory came back to me. He was right, after all: No one with a vulva needs a man for anything, especially a clitoral orgasm. My favorite bullet vibrator is the Le Wand Deux, so I have plenty of experience with the company's sex toys, but nothing could have prepared me for the Dive.

Off-the-Charts Intense

When I first encounter a vibrator, I always go through the vibration intensities in my hand before anything else. While testing a vibrator against your nose is the best way to figure out if the settings are strong enough (or too strong) for your clitoral satisfaction, I’ve tried so many vibrators that I can gauge their strength fairly well with a grip. I do this as a way to give myself a heads up as to just how powerful something is before I use it on my clitoris.

Maybe the other wands I have in my collection have exhausted themselves with time and use, but when I cranked the Dive to its top intensity (there are 10), the vibrations were so strong that I could feel them up my arm, across my chest, and into my jaw. Even 20 minutes after this brief test round, my hand was still feeling the effects and struggling to shake the tingling away. I tend to be a glutton for high-intensity vibrators on my vulva, so I’m so happy I did this first.

With this necessary information about its power in mind, I eased my way into the Dive during my first time, taking on each intensity slowly, although you have the option to hold down the (+) button and take it from zero to 60 in seconds. I couldn’t get past the fourth intensity without completely caving and having an immediate orgasm.

I was equally shocked, impressed, and confused. But most importantly, feeling so amazing and practically enlightened—thank you, oxytocin!—that I briefly thought I could solve all the world’s problems. But because the Dive isn’t just splashproof but fully submersible, I knew I was just getting started, and the world would have to wait.

Underwater Fun

I’ve never really been into sexual activities that involve water. I learned after my first few forays into pool sex that water washes away natural lube, so my mind has categorized sexual pleasure and water separately. However, with the Dive being waterproof, I had to unlearn what I knew.

What’s cool about using a vibrator in the water—not just in the shower, but underwater—is that you get to experience the sensation that comes with the vibrator itself and the ripple effects it has on the water. While the overall experience is enhanced, I’d be lying if I said the water didn’t get in the way—just a bit—of the intensity.

Still, being able to use a powerful vibrator that you know can induce orgasms while in the bathtub after a long day is the big selling point here. It’s also fantastic to indulge in that moment of self-pleasure without fear that your vibrator isn’t going to survive the tryst, making the Dive that much more lovable.

The Le Wand Dive is phenomenal. Sure, it’s heavier than most vibrators, but that’s a small price to pay for the deliriously delicious power it’s serving. It’s also on the loud side, but so are most wand vibrators. The Dive offers 20 pattern variations, providing loads of sensation exploration, and gives you a whopping two hours of playtime when fully charged—great news for those who love to edge as long as they can before a strong finish. It's also travel-ready with a bag, as well as a USB charger and travel lock, the latter of which will prevent any awkward run-ins with TSA should you choose to pack it in your carry-on.

We’re only just past the halfway point of the year, but I can safely say the Dive is in my top 10 sex toys of 2025 list. If you’re looking to upgrade the wand vibrator you have or want to treat yourself, then the Dive is the way to go.
