Frequently asked questions

Honest answers on shipping, discretion, materials, sizing, payment and the law — everything you want to know before buying a curvy companion from Curvelle.

Below are the questions we are asked most often. If yours is not here, reach our concierge through the contact page — we reply within one business day. For deeper reading, see our materials guide, sizing guide and discreet shipping explainer.

Every order ships in a plain, unbranded corrugated carton with no images, no product description and no mention of Curvelle on the outside. The sender appears as a neutral fulfillment name, and the return label is generic. Nobody handling the box — couriers, mailroom staff or a curious neighbor — can tell what is inside. We treat discretion as part of the product, not an add-on, which is why we cover it in detail on our discreet shipping page.
Because we hold stock in US warehouses, most orders are delivered in 5–7 business days with full tracking, rather than the three-to-six-week waits common with overseas ordering. In-stock configurations ship fastest; certain custom options (specific skin tones, gel upgrades or heating) can add a few days while the build is finished. You receive a tracking number as soon as the carton leaves the warehouse.
We accept major credit and debit cards through a secure, PCI-compliant checkout. Your statement shows a neutral billing descriptor — something like "CVL*OPS" — rather than anything that identifies the product category. We never store full card numbers on our servers, and the entire checkout runs over encrypted connections. If a payment is declined, no charge is held.
No. Curvelle ships domestically from US warehouses, so there are no customs declarations, no import duties and no risk of a package being opened or held at the border. This is one of the biggest practical advantages of buying domestically rather than directly from an overseas marketplace, where customs delays and inspection are a genuine concern.
Because these are intimate products, an opened or used doll cannot be returned for hygiene and safety reasons — this is standard across the industry. Unopened orders can be returned within the window described on our refunds page. If an item arrives damaged or defective, contact us within 48 hours with photos and we will arrange a repair, replacement or refund. We inspect every claim individually and fairly.
Our companions are built from medical-grade TPE (thermoplastic elastomer), platinum-cure silicone, or a hybrid of a silicone head on a TPE body. TPE is soft, warm and affordable; silicone is firmer, more detailed and more hygienic. Each has trade-offs in feel, durability and care. We explain all of this in depth in our materials guide so you can choose with confidence.
Sizing comes down to the silhouette you prefer and the space and weight you can manage. Curvelle figures range from roughly 150cm to 172cm, weighing about 65–110 lbs depending on build. Our sizing guide breaks down mini-BBW, mid-BBW, full-body and premium categories, with height, weight and cup-size ranges, so you can match a doll to your real living situation.
Curvy and BBW builds carry more material, so they typically weigh 65–110 lbs across the 150–172cm range — heavier than a slim doll of the same height. Most adults can manage this solo with sensible lifting technique: support the torso, bend at the knees and move slowly. For the fullest builds, a second pair of hands and a wheeled storage case make handling and storage much easier.
Yes. Most premium curvy dolls can be tailored at checkout. Common options include skin tone (fair, natural, tan, deep), eye color, removable wig style, an internal heating system for warmth, standing-foot bolts, and bust or hip upgrades such as gel-filled implants. Customization is part of making a curated doll feel genuinely yours; we list each companion's available options on its product page.
Curvelle is strictly for adults aged 18 and over. When you first visit, an age gate asks you to confirm your date of birth before entering. At checkout we require confirmation again, and we reserve the right to cancel any order where age cannot be reasonably verified. Every figure we sell is an unambiguously adult body of 150cm or taller; we never sell childlike dolls under any circumstances.
Due to a specific state statute restricting these products, Curvelle does not sell or ship to addresses within the State of Alabama. Any order placed to an Alabama address will be cancelled and fully refunded. This is the only US shipping restriction we observe; we ship to all other states. We monitor the legal landscape and will update this policy if the statute changes.
Yes. Our manufacturer partners provide a limited warranty against manufacturing defects, typically covering the skeleton and major construction faults for a defined period after delivery. Normal wear, staining from clothing, and damage from misuse or improper storage are not covered. If you believe you have a defect, contact us with photos and we will coordinate the warranty claim with the manufacturer on your behalf.
Ordering directly from an overseas factory usually means long waits, customs risk, unpredictable packaging and no real support if something goes wrong. Curvelle curates a tight edit of vetted builds, holds them in US warehouses for fast discreet delivery, writes about them honestly, and provides US-based customer support. You pay a little more than a bare-bones marketplace price for speed, discretion, vetting and accountability.
Clean intimate areas after each use with mild antibacterial soap and lukewarm water, rinse, then pat fully dry. TPE bodies benefit from a talc-free renewal powder every week or two; silicone tolerates more frequent cleaning. Avoid alcohol-based products on TPE, keep dark or dyed clothing off the surface to prevent staining, and store the doll dry and supported. Our cleaning guide covers the full routine.
For adults, yes. Purchasing an adult companion doll is legal across the United States, with the clear legal line concerning any depiction of minors — which is exactly why responsible retailers never sell sub-150cm or childlike figures. Every Curvelle doll is an unambiguously adult body of 150cm or taller. Our legal guide covers the state-by-state picture in detail.
These are descriptive body-type terms, not quality grades. "Curvy" usually means a defined hourglass with fuller bust and hips on a moderate frame. "Voluptuous" adds more softness and exaggerated curves throughout. "BBW" (big beautiful woman) describes the fullest, softest builds with the most generous proportions everywhere. "Chubby" or "plus" sits between curvy and full BBW. Our sizing guide explains each silhouette.
Yes. As soon as your carton leaves our warehouse you receive a tracking number by email. You can follow the shipment through the carrier's site or a tracking app without any reference to Curvelle or the product appearing in notifications. For added privacy you can choose signature-on-delivery or hold-at-location options where the carrier supports them, as covered on our discreet shipping page.
Inspect your order on arrival. If anything is damaged or defective, photograph it and contact us within 48 hours through our contact page. We will assess the issue and arrange a repair, replacement part or full replacement as appropriate, at no cost to you for genuine manufacturing or shipping damage. Keep the original packaging until the claim is resolved, as carriers sometimes require it.
