The Bottom Line
If you've got the money and you know you love vibration, Elemental Pleasures are the ultimate luxury vibrators. Simple in design and function, it's the feel of the metal and the depth and strength of vibration (not to mention the sleek and sexy look) that make Elemental Pleasures worth their high end cost. It's also nice to get what you pay for, and Le Lynx certainly offers longevity. Plus you're buying direct from the manufacturer, a rarity with vibrators.
Pros
  • Durable, Le Lynx comes with a one year warranty.
  • Sleek and sexy design.
  • Powerful vibrations which resonate differently in metal than plastic.
  • Waterproof and boilable.
Cons
  • The steep price is out of reach for most of us.
  • Not recommended for beginners both because of price and strength of vibration.
Description
  • Made from medical grade titanium, austenitic stainless steel, and aircraft grade anodized aluminum.
  • With thoughtful design, they look as good as they feel.
  • Most models come with three heads, each providing different sensations.
  • These toys are significantly heavier than most, providing a great feel in the hand and on the body.
  • Ranging in price from $205 to $595, they are built to last.
Guide Review - Le Lynx by Elemental Pleasures

Designed by a husband and wife team whose day job is in the aerospace industry (I believe they make the metal boxes that in-flight televisions sit in) Le Lynx, and the entire line of Elemental Pleasures represent the best of the growing high end sex toy market.

Each vibrator is made of a different body safe and durable metal, and each material feels different and produces a slightly different vibratory feeling. In some ways these are toys that should be tested before bought, so if you're near a store that carries them I recommend that over buying on line. Here's a brief description of the materials from the manufacturer's website:

  • Stainless Steel is the heaviest metal and therefore slightly dampens out the vibrations. While heavier to hold, it also transmits less vibration to your hand.
  • Titanium is lighter weight than stainless, but heavier than aluminum.
  • Anodized Aluminum is the lightest metal. This vibrator is lightweight and transmits the maximum level of vibration.

Elemental Pleasures aren't vibrators with lot of bells and whistles. Most models come with a few different attachments which offer both a variation in shape but also in speed of vibration. Most are fully immersible making them exceptionally easy to clean and also safe for use in water. What they all share is a unique powerful and deep vibration and a life span that is almost unmatched in the sex toy industry.
