How to Choose a Dildo


Dildo shopping involves a lot of personal preference. Shape, size, texture, style, and color are all up to you. We carry a large variety of dildos because everyone’s preference is different. This quick guide is designed to easily hook you up with your dream dick.

Realistic dildos?

Vixskin toys like Buck and Bandit are scandalously realistic, made of medical grade silicone, and come with a lifetime warranty.


Non-realistic styling?

The brightly-colored Stallion and Colt dildos provide a pleasing option for folks who don’t want their dildo to look like a penis.


Hand-held dildos? Hand-held dildos like G-Force and the Lumina Wand are great for self-use and for folks who love penetration but don’t want to deal with a strap on or dildo harness.

A double  dildo? Double-ended dildos like the Nexus allow both partners to be penetrated simultaneously. Best when used with a harness.
Vibration? Buzz 1 and Smooth Operator are both silicone dildos that incorporate a mini-vibrator in the base. The vibrator can be removed during cleaning.
Anal action? Smaller dildos like the Spur are great for anal play beginners. The longer, thicker Mistress is our most popular anal dildo.

G-spot stimulation? G-spot toys all feature a distinct curve. If you’re looking for G-spot stimulation, try curvy dildos like G-Spot Pearl.
A bumpy ride? Dildos with ridges range from the textured Colt to the seriously bumpy    Spine Tingler.
Smooth? Silk slicone dildos are as smooth as their namesake.
A small dildo? Both the Bond and the Silk 1 are finger-sized delights. They are perfect dildos for first time explorers of penetration—whether it’s anal or vaginal.
A big dildo? Randy, Outlaw, Rodeo Rick, and Ultraskin Large are dildos with generous proportions.
A good, medium-sized all-around dildo? Woody and Leo aren’t too big or too small. They’re a good middle-of-the-road size if you’re buying a dildo without a particular partner in mind.
Packer? Cyberskin soft packs are the standard choice for creating an enticing bulge. The Mr. Right packer is a long-lasting, high-quality toy made of 100% silicone.
Equally good for packing and playing? The Mr. Bendy features a flexible core that makes it easy to pack, but it is still firm enough for fucking.
Squishier? Folks with sensitive cervixes often prefer softer, squishier dildos like the Tex and Cotton Candy.
Firmer? Glass dildos like the Scepter and stainless steel toys like the Pure Wand (formerly Jupiter Wand) are a dream come true for g-spot and p-spot fans.
Inexpensive? Jelly rubber dildos like Ballsy Supercock and Big Red are affordable. They are also made of porous materials that get dirty quickly and should be covered by a condom when in use

Dildo 101

Materials are one of the most important considerations in choosing a dildo. Non-porous materials like silicone, pyrex, and stainless steel are Babeland favorites because they are the easiest to care for and last much longer than porous materials like jelly rubber or cyberskin. If you’re looking for a dildo to use with a harness, you’re in luck. Most of the dildos we carry are designed to be used in harnesses. Look for a toy with a wide base that won’t slip through the ring on your harness. Dildos with balls fit best in harnesses like the Terra Firma dildo harness or Commando harness.
