How to Choose a Wand Attachment: 5 Checks Before You Buy

Choosing a wand attachment is easier when you know what to look for. Before buying, check whether it fits your wand, what it is made from, which shape suits your preferences, what lubricant to use and how to clean it. Getting the fit right is especially important. An attachment that is too loose may slip during use, while one that is stretched too far could tear. This guide is for adults aged 18 and over.

Quick answer

  • Fit: Check the attachment’s inner diameter against your wand head. Several of our listings specify a 2.3 inch inner diameter.

  • Material: TPE, silicone and vinyl have different textures and care requirements.

  • Shape: Choose from external stimulation, dual stimulation, insertable styles and attachments designed for male use.

  • Care: Use water based lubricant, clean the attachment after every use and use a new condom each time if sharing.

  • Authenticity: Buy from a trusted seller and check the product details, compatibility information and warranty.

What is a wand attachment?

A wand attachment is a soft cover that fits over the head of a wand massager. You might also see it called a wand topper or wand massager attachment. It changes the shape, texture or reach of the head while the wand provides the vibration.

The original wand became widely known under the Hitachi name, which is why many people still search for Hitachi Magic Wand attachments. If you are choosing your first wand as well as an attachment, our massage wand UK guide can help you compare the options.

Step 1: How do you check a wand attachment will fit?

Start with the measurements rather than assuming every attachment fits every wand. Compare the attachment’s inner diameter with the size of your wand head and check the manufacturer's compatibility information.

Our Rabbit Tip lists a 2.3 inch inner diameter and compatibility with standard size wand massagers and the Hitachi Magic Wand. The Euphoria attachment is listed as fitting most standard size wands, including Hitachi models.

Here is how that applies to our wand range:

Always switch the wand off before fitting or removing an attachment. Check it for damage before use and replace it if you notice any tears.

Step 2: Which wand attachment material is best?

Material affects how an attachment feels and how you should look after it. Silicone is nonporous and generally easy to clean, while TPE and vinyl products can have different properties depending on their formulation.

Essex Sexual Health Service advises choosing nonporous materials such as silicone because they are easier to clean. It also advises against sharing porous toys.

Our range includes three materials:

  • TPE: A flexible, rubber like material used in the Rabbit Tip and Lily Pod. Check the product's cleaning instructions and avoid assuming that every TPE formulation has the same properties.

  • Silicone: Often chosen for its smooth, soft feel. The Euphoria attachment is one option if you prefer silicone.

  • Vinyl: Used in our Accessory Kit. Check the product details for the recommended cleaning method and any material specific precautions.

If you are unsure whether an attachment is nonporous, keep it for personal use. If an attachment is suitable for condom use and you share it, use a new condom each time and clean it according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Step 3: Which shape suits what you want?

Once you have checked the fit and material, think about how you want to use the attachment. Different shapes offer different kinds of contact, so it helps to choose based on your preferences rather than appearance alone.

  • External textured stimulation: The Lily Pod (£39.95) is a TPE cup with a textured inner surface. You can also compare the Flutter Tip and Nuzzle Tip if you are looking at other shapes.

  • Dual stimulation: The Rabbit Tip (£49.95) is made from TPE and has a 4 inch insertable length. The silicone Euphoria (£59.95) has a larger petal for internal use and a smaller one for external contact. Check the product instructions before use.

  • Male use: The Twin Turbo Strokers 2 in 1 is designed for male use.

  • Hands free use: The Wand Assist gooseneck holder holds your wand in position, which may be useful if you want to keep your hands free.

If you are new to wand attachments, there is no need to buy several at once. Start with a style that suits your preferences and see how you get on. Our beginner guide to using a wand vibrator covers the basics.

Step 4: Which lubricant should you use?

Water based lubricant is a good starting point for wand attachments. It is compatible with silicone toys and works with many other materials, although you should always check the manufacturer's guidance.

NSW Health explains that silicone based lubricant can damage the surface of silicone toys over time. Water based lubricant is the safer choice if you want to avoid that issue.

Our lubricants collection includes water based options from £4.99. Check the label before use, especially if your attachment is made from a material other than silicone.

Step 5: Is the seller genuine?

It is worth checking who you are buying from, particularly when purchasing an electrical wand. Counterfeit products may not meet the same safety or quality standards as genuine products.

Electrical Safety First warns that counterfeit electrical products can pose a significant risk of fire and electric shock. Our real vs fake guide explains what to look for when checking a wand's authenticity.

Buying your wand and attachment from a trusted seller also makes it easier to check compatibility and get help if you have questions. Orders from us are sent in plain, confidential packaging. You can find more information in our shipping policy.

Keep your attachment clean and safe

Cleaning your attachment after every use helps keep it in good condition. Follow the care instructions for its material and check it regularly for tears, changes in texture or other signs of damage.

The NHS advises keeping sex toys clean. If you share a toy, wash it between each use and put a new condom on it each time. Sharing toys without proper cleaning and protection can pass on infections, including chlamydia, syphilis and herpes.

Avoid using a damaged attachment and stop if you experience pain or irritation. If symptoms continue, speak to your GP or a sexual health clinic.

Final thoughts

Choosing a wand attachment does not need to be complicated. Check that it fits your wand, choose a material you can care for properly and pick a shape that suits your preferences. Use a compatible lubricant and clean the attachment after every use.

FAQs

Will a wand attachment fit my Magic Wand?

Many attachments are designed for standard size wand massagers, but compatibility depends on the attachment and the model you own. Check the listed inner diameter and product compatibility details before ordering.

Do attachments fit the Magic Wand Mini or Micro?

Do not assume they will. Both models have smaller heads than standard size wands, so contact our team to check compatibility before buying an attachment.

Which material is best for a wand attachment?

Silicone is nonporous and generally easy to clean, making it a popular choice. TPE and vinyl can also be suitable, but their properties and care requirements vary. Check the material information and cleaning instructions for the specific product.

Which lube is safe with wand attachments?

Water based lubricant is a good starting point for most attachments. It is suitable for silicone toys and avoids the potential surface damage associated with silicone based lubricant on silicone toys. Always check the manufacturer's guidance for your attachment.

How do I stop an attachment slipping or tearing?

Check the inner diameter against your wand head and confirm that the attachment is listed as compatible with your model. Fit it with the wand switched off, avoid stretching it beyond its intended size and inspect it regularly. Replace the attachment if it tears or becomes damaged.
