As someone who’s tried everything from cheap knockoffs on Temu to luxurious $300 tentacle toys (yes, there was a time), I like to think I know a thing or two about what makes a product stand out in the pleasure tech world.

So you can be pretty sure when I say it’s rare that a trending product catches me off guard, but when I first saw Avo and Lem—two discreet, fruit-shaped suction toys from Nancy—taking over Tiktok, I knew I at least had to test them.  Lowkey, I didn’t want to get my hopes up about these products at first. But after seeing everyone online losing their minds over them, I had to see what the hype was about for myself.

With their playful shapes and serious “tech”, these toys have gone viral, and for a good reason: they bring a fresh, discreet twist to clitoral suction. Below, I’m breaking down the experience of using Avo and Lem, including insights from experts and reviewers, comparisons with similar suction toys, and my final thoughts on whether these toys should (or shouldn’t) be part of your first toy or pleasure lineup.

The Fruit Vibe Trend, Explained

Fruit-inspired pleasure products are booming, and with brands bringing discreet, playful designs combined with the magic of clitoral suction into their collections, once can’t help but scream. Nancy has fully embraced this with Avo (an avocado-inspired vibe) and Lem (a lemon-shaped clit sucker), both offering unique features. “Avo and Lem are ideal for anyone who wants a subtle, non-obvious design that packs a powerful punch,” says Diana, sex educator and brand ambassador at Gamizo. The fruit-inspired shapes not only add fun but also give these toys a discreet look, perfect for anyone who values privacy.

Product Testing: My Step-by-Step Review

After testing Avo and Lem over a few weeks, here’s my honest review, from setup to sensation:

1. Setup: Both Avo and Lem come with chargers that are easy to connect. Their soft silicone bodies are comfortable to hold, and with waterproof designs, they’re perfect for shower use.
2. Intensity Exploration: Avo’s 10 suction settings offer intensity from gentle pulsing to intense throbbing. Lem, meanwhile, has softer, more consistent vibrations that are ideal for teasing and warm-up.
3. Direct Experience: I started with Lem, which offered a light, tapping sensation that mimicked gentle oral. Moving to Avo was like dialing it up; the suction was intense and made for a powerful climax. Both toys were quiet, even on the highest settings, making them as discreet in use as they look.

How Avo and Lem Compare to Other Suction Toys

If you’re curious about how Avo and Lem stack up to similar toys, here’s a quick comparison:

• Satisfyer Pro 2: Offers the cult-favorite Air Pulse Technology but lacks the playful design of Avo and Lem. Great for consistent air pulses but can feel bulky.
• We-Vibe Melt: Slim, ergonomic design with powerful suction, but lacks the beginner-friendly vibe of Lem. Better suited for experienced users who enjoy intense stimulation.
• Dame Aer: Known for high-quality air pulses with a body-safe design, but at a higher price point. It provides a more direct, intense experience, though it’s less discreet than Avo or Lem.
• The Rose: Iconic rose-shaped suction toy that’s become a social media phenomenon. While the design is discreet and visually appealing, users sometimes find the suction inconsistent, and it can lack the intensity provided by Avo and Lem. Ideal for those who are drawn to a visually subtle option with moderate suction.
• Lelo Sona: Luxe option with sleek design and powerful Cruise Control feature for consistent suction. It’s a strong choice for users who want a refined look and higher-end features, though it comes at a premium price. Its ergonomic design is great for comfort but may lack the playful, discreet appearance of Avo and Lem.

Both Avo and Lem offer something unique: a playful yet powerful design that merges fun with function, making them ideal for anyone looking for discretion and variety in their pleasure lineup.

Final Verdict: Avo vs. Lem—The Intense Obsession vs. the Gentle Must-Have

Despite the steep price, Nancy’s Avo Clit Sucker is the go-to for me as someone who loves unapologetically intense stimulation (seriously, I’m obsessed). But if softer, understated vibes are your thing—or you just want to jump on the trend before it’s too late—Lem is your best bet, and a steal of a price IMO.

And honestly, if you can’t decide, why not just treat yourself to both? 😂  Nancy just launched the Tutti Frutti bundle (gotta love the name!), and you get to try both the Lem and the Avo!
