Which is Better about TPE VS Silicone Sex Dolls?

TPE-vs-Silicone-Sex-Dolls

You have decided to get yourself a sex doll – but you cannot decide which material works better for you: TPE vs Silicone Sex Dolls! Let’s start with reviewing the material that real sex dolls are made from, which is generally either TPE or silicone. The technology is creating miraculously realistic products, which we can enjoy today! For those looking for a quick answer, TPE Sex Dolls are superior, but the reasoning might surprise you!

TPE Advantages

First of all, let’s talk about what TPE is made from and its performance when it comes to sex dolls. TPE (or Thermoplastic Elastomer) is almost brand new, compared to silicone. It is a mixture of rubber and plastic. TPE can be stretched repeatedly and it will return to its original length right away. It is much softer than other materials, and it can hold multiple positions because of flexibility.

Another advantage of TPE sex dolls is that they are cheaper than the silicone dolls even though the material is more realistic. TPE materials can be recyclable. It is also very hypoallergenic and it will not cause any allergic reactions.

What Does a TPE Sex Doll Feel Like?

Obviously, it will depend upon the shape and size, but for a general feeling of the “sex doll boob” we can look at something with a similar shape and size that we all have experience touching. Why, yes, we are talking about the many bouncy and rubbery toys often found in the mall! These toys pictured below are made of a very similar type of TPE material, and you can already imagine how bouncy and real every curve of your next sex doll will feel like.

TPE Disadvantages

If you get a stain on your doll – it is a very hard clean. The material is very porous and you should clean up the vaginal and anal cavities as much as you can. If you do not do a good clean up – beware, you may see some mold!

TPE is could be sticky to touch, but this problem can be easily solved with some baby powder. It is also barely resistant to heat, so taking a bath with your doll may be a problem!

 

Silicone Advantages

Silicone material is much easier to clean since it is not as sticky as Thermoplastic Elastometer. It is more expensive, but also more resistant to heat, stains, and water. It does not require much maintenance compared to other sex dolls materials. And just like TPE, silicone is also hypoallergenic.

Silicone sex dolls have the most realistic vaginal and anal cavity, which can be a great benefit to most people. Cleaning it would not be a problem since it is very easy to sterilize. We would still not recommend the use of alcohol for sterilization, but rather softer cleaning tools.

Silicone Disadvantages

When you touch a silicone doll – it feels like it is very hard, way harder than TPE material. The butt and breasts will not wobble when you rock them back in fourth.

For some, a big disadvantage would be the price of a silicone doll – it is way more expensive, than TPE. The average price would be $2500 for a doll like that.
