"I want to buy a sex doll, but I'm not sure about the difference between silicon and TPE" is a question many customers have when shopping for a sex doll for the first time. This article introduces the materials and compares their advantages and disadvantages in easy-to-understand language for those who are unfamiliar with the differences and characteristics of silicon and TPE products.
1. Advantages And Disadvantages of TPE Sex Doll
Compared to silicone, the TPE material came later. TPE is a branch of elastomeric materials and it is the latest material that has recently started to be used in the medical field. In fact, TPE materials are not only growing in the medical field, but companies that used to make love dolls from silicone have started switching to TPE materials.
Then there is the fact that the TPE material is so stretchy that the skin feels like a real person. Compared to silicone dolls, TPE dolls are soft in every area of the body, while silicone dolls are not, and are only softer in the face, breasts, hips, thighs, and belly.And the price of TPE love dolls is affordable for most people, only half the price of silicone sex dolls to experience a sex doll made with top craftsmanship.
Although TPE has some advantages over silicone, it also has some disadvantages. The first point is that it tends to get dust and dirt. Since the skin is very elastic, dust and dirt will be more difficult to remove. Especially if you don't take good care of your doll and apply the toner evenly, the dust will be concentrated in those places, in the sense that it will help you find the places you forgot to apply it. Second, although the softness of the skin is an advantage, it can easily be scratched. Especially when you move the doll, if you're not careful, you'll get rough "dry and cracked" skin.
2. Advantages And Disadvantages of Silicone Sex Dolls
The first is in the smell of silicone sex dolls, although there are differences between manufacturers, a common feature of silicone dolls is less pungent odor. So for those who are sensitive to odors, silicon dolls can be recommended.
Secondly, compared to the silicone dolls of ten years ago, the technology of silicone dolls has improved a lot and the durability of silicone dolls has also improved a lot. Compared to TPE sex dolls, it is much more durable, so if you want to use the same love doll for a long time, this highly durable silicone doll is worth buying. Of course, if handled roughly, it will still have scratches and scuffs, but even so, the probability of leaving scratches is relatively low compared to other materials.It is also resistant to heat and does not melt during normal storage and usage.But silicone sex dolls are more expensive than TPE dolls because of the medical grade silicone used and the price tends to be a little higher.
In general, we recommend sex dolls for beginners to choose TPE sex dolls, who have lower prices. Silicone dolls are suitable for experienced dolls players, they have better quality and will stay with you longer!
