The Lovense Gush 2 is Lovense's updated take on the "male vibrator" category — an adjustable open silicone sleeve with dual internal motors that wraps around the penis to add oscillation and vibration to a user's own hand stroking, rather than thrusting automatically like a Keon or Solace Pro. Retailing at about $99 (US) / £129.99 (UK), it's become one of the most-cited entry points into app-connected male sex toys at the sub-$100 tier.
Why It Matters
The "male vibrator" category has been underdeveloped for years, dominated by Hot Octopuss's Pulse line and Fun Factory's Manta. Lovense's push with the Gush 2 — paired with the Lovense Remote app ecosystem — extends long-distance partner play into the hand-assisted stroker category, which historically hasn't been connected. With the industry's male segment projected to hit $12.3B per Fact.MR's April 2026 report, this is the price tier where most of that growth will happen.The two-motor design splits labor: one motor drives deep vibration across the shaft, the other produces a faster oscillation targeting the frenulum. Adjustable velcro-like bands accommodate a wide range of sizes and allow the user to set how tight the sleeve grips. Like all Lovense hardware, it pairs with the Lovense Remote app over Bluetooth for long-distance partner control, sync with adult content on participating platforms, and custom pattern programming — plus sync with a partner's Lovense device for mirrored play. An "endurance training" mode is marketed as premature ejaculation training, echoing the Fleshlight STU's positioning but with haptic feedback.
Independent reviewers at Dapper and Groomed (one-year long-term review) and Consent Culture call the Gush 2 "excellent value" and among the most effective male vibrators at its price, with the trade-off being it's not fully hands-free: you still stroke. For buyers who want a hands-free stroker, the Keon, Solace Pro, or Magic Motion Xone are better picks. It's also stocked at Boots in the UK, signaling mainstream retail comfort with app-controlled male toys.
Body-safe silicone sleeve, ABS motor housing, IPX7 waterproof for easy cleaning. If you already own a Lovense Max 2 or Solace Pro, the Gush 2 isn't a replacement — it's a complementary tool for when you want active control with vibration. For men curious about teledildonics but not ready to commit to $200+ hardware, this is the on-ramp.
