How to Choose a Dildo
by Alicia Guinn
Dildos are popular because penetration feels good. People from across
the spectrum of gender and sexual orientation love penetration and love
dildos.
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. But don't worry; we
have some tips that will simplify your shopping experience and help you
hook up with your dream dick.
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.

|
Realistic
design? |
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 Siren
series of dildos provides a pleasing option for folks who don’t
want their dildo to look like a penis. |
 |
|
Hand-held? |
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 strap it on. |
 |
|
A
double-ended 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 firm curve. If
you’re looking for g-spot action, try curvy dildos like Colt
and G-Spot
Pearl. |
 |
|
Bumpy? |
Dildos with ridges range from the textured Goddess
to the seriously bumpy Spine
Tingler. |
 |
|
Smooth? |
Silk
dildos are as smooth as their namesake. |
 |
|
Small? |
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. |
 |
|
Big? |
Randy,
Outlaw,
Rodeo
Rick, and Sire
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. |
 |
|
Luxury |
Unique, sensually-designed dildos like the Flip and the premium Jollie silicone dildo. |
 |
|
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 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. |
