If you peruse our Best Sex Toys guide, you’ll come across several products from Lelo, but let’s be honest—they can be pretty expensive. That’s why Lelo’s 20th-anniversary sale caught my eye. There aren’t a ton of huge discounts, but there are a couple of standouts, including some of our favorites and some always-in-demand intimate accessories every bedroom should have.

The Sona 2 Cruise is a classic suction toy. It feels solid and comfy in the hand, the buttons are easily reachable, and it can produce surprisingly powerful suction. The “cruise” in the name refers to one of my favorite features: The intensity of the suction air pulses can ramp up and down depending on how hard you’re pressing the toy against your body, so your natural body language can communicate to the toy that it’s time to ramp things up or cool things off all without having to touch a single button. Lelo’s Sona 2 (without Cruise) is also on sale, and it’s a great pick if you want to keep things manual control only.
The Lelo Dot is a precision vibrator, and it’s an interesting little thing. Unlike vibrators you may have seen before, the Dot tapers down to an ultra-fine, flexible, silicone point, for the most targeted stimulation you can get out of a toy. The tip of the toy can channel surprisingly gentle or intense vibrations depending on your tastes, and it’s a wonderful toy to experiment with no matter your genitals.
No bedroom should be without lube and a cleaning spray. Lelo’s offerings here are appropriately slick and stylishly designed, but they also work super well. The lube is water-based and safe for any toy, any body, and any erogenous zone, and the cleaning spray makes cleaning up your toys a breeze. (We recommend keeping the spray in the bathroom—that way you can just spritz and rinse your toys and be all done.)
Lelo’s Sila Cruise is an adorable little suction toy. Shaped like a snail, it has a soft silicone mouth that fits nicely over just about any small erogenous zone. Like the Sona 2 Cruise, the Sila Cruise has the ability to automatically ramp up or down the suction power based on how hard you’re pressing the toy against your body, making for an effortless and completely seamless way to spend some time with yourself.
If you’re a condom user, chances are you’ve used some bad condoms in the past. These are one of our favorite premium condoms, and they’re here to change your mind about the old-fashioned latex prophylactic. Lelo’s Hex condoms don’t have any of that unfortunate rubber smell you get from other condoms, and they’re textured to provide a surprisingly tactile experience. Plus the little wrappers are super easy to open. These are also great for use with toys! Using a condom with a toy is one way to make cleanup even faster and easier, and can also keep things nice and lubricated.
