Why combine suction and vibration in one toy? Suction and vibration work in different ways. Suction draws gently on the clitoris through a small opening, giving a pulsing pull with little friction. Vibration shakes the tissue directly and reaches a wider area. Some people respond far better to one than the other, and many like to move between them or layer them. A toy that offers both, each with its own range of levels, lets you find your preference without owning two devices.
Maia Tulip Pro: 15 levels of suction, 15 of vibration
The Tulip Pro is a stimulator from Maia that offers both suction and vibration, with 15 levels of each. The body is ABS covered in silicone that the maker describes as medical grade, and it is listed as 100 percent waterproof. This is the teal version. Both modes are built into one body.
It charges by USB and comes with a charging base as well as the cord, so it has a place to sit between uses. Fifteen steps in each mode give a fine degree of control, from barely there to intense.
Best for: For people who want to explore suction-style clitoral stimulation without giving up vibration. The long range of levels suits both sensitive users who need a gentle start and those who like a lot of power. Waterproofing makes it a good bath companion.

How to use
Connect the USB cord to the charging base and charge the Tulip Pro fully before first use. Wash and dry it. Apply a little water-based lubricant around the suction opening. Place the opening over the clitoris so it forms a light seal, and switch on at the lowest suction level. Hold it still and raise the level one step at a time. Try the vibration on its own, then with the suction, to see which you prefer. After use, wash the toy, dry the opening well and return it to its base.
Care
- Use water-based lubricant only on the silicone.
- Wash with mild soap and warm water after each use, rinsing the suction opening.
- Never boil it or put it in a dishwasher.
- Dry it completely before placing it on the charging base.
- Keep the charging base and cord dry.

Frequently asked questions
How many settings does the Tulip Pro have?
The maker gives 15 levels of suction and 15 levels of vibration. The feature list calls the vibration settings patterns, so some of the 15 may be rhythms and not just strengths.
Is it really waterproof?
The maker lists the Tulip Pro as 100 percent waterproof, so it can be used in the bath or shower. That applies to the toy. Keep the charging base and USB cord away from water.
How does it charge?
By USB. The box includes a charging base and a USB cord. The facts do not give the charging time or the run time, so charge it fully before the first use.
Is the teal version different from the pink one?
Only in color. Both are the Tulip Pro with the same 15 suction levels, 15 vibration levels, silicone covering and charging base. Pick the shade you like, since nothing else changes between them.
Which lubricant should I use?
Water-based lubricant. A small amount around the opening helps the seal. Avoid silicone-based lubricant, which can damage the silicone covering. Wipe away any excess from the opening when you are done.
