How to Choose a Dildo

Silicone dildos, glass dildos, strap ons or double dildos? Find help with materials, sizes, styles, and harness-compatibility when shoppping the perfect dildo.

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 the Outlaw and Bandit are scandalously realistic, made of medical-grade silicone, and come with a lifetime warranty. The Adam is similarly realistic, with a slightly different shape.


Non-realistic styling

The brightly-colored Laid D.1 is a great hand-held option for those who don't want their dildo to look like a penis; for a harnessable non-realistic dildo, try Silk.


Hand-held dildos Hand-held dildos like the Ella and the Pure Wand are great for self-use (especially for G-spot stimulation), and for folks who love penetration but don't want to deal with a strap on or dildo harness.

 Double  dildos Double-ended dildos like the Nexus and the Share allow both partners to be penetrated simultaneously. Best when used with a harness.
Vibration The Leo Vibe Kit and the Vibrating Mistress are both vibrating silicone beauties that incorporate a mini-vibrator, removable during cleaning, in the base. These dildos are great for use with a harness.
Anal action Smaller dildos like the Silk are great for anal play beginners. The Vibrating Mistress provides a slim, vibrating option, also great for anal beginners.

G-spot stimulation G-spot toys all feature a distinct curve. If you're looking for G-spot stimulation, try dildos with a curved tip, like the G Curve dildo, Pure Wand, and Rose G-Spotter
Small dildos The Silk 1 dildo is narrow and short, the Vibrating Mistress is narrow with an average length, and the Buster is squat and girthy. Take your pick!
Big dildos Randy, Outlaw, and Rodeo Rick are dildos with very generous proportions.
Medium-sized, all-around dildos Woody and Leo aren't too big or too small (though Woody is smaller than Leo). They’re a good middle-of-the-road size if you're buying a dildo without a particular partner in mind.
Packer 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 and the Goodfella feature a flexible core that makes it easy to pack, but still firm enough for fucking.
Firmer Glass dildos like the Candy Colored Glass Dildo offer a rock-hard feeling of fullness. The stainless steel Pure Wand is a dream come true for fans of G-spot and P-spot stimulation.

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 or Commando.
