Sex dolls have become increasingly popular in recent years, but they are still not everyday products. Because of this, it is understandable that there are still many questions about sex dolls, or sex dolls. This FAQ answers the most frequently asked questions about sex dolls.
Sex dolls are life-size dolls that mimic the human body. They are designed to simulate sexual interaction. They are usually made of silicone or TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) and have an internal skeleton that allows them to assume different positions. Sex dolls can vary in appearance, size and functionality and can be used by both men and women.
Sex plugs are usually made of silicone or TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) materials that are safe for human use. The manufacturing process generally begins with the creation of a mold of the human body, which is then filled with the chosen material. The material is then cured and the doll is assembled with an internal skeleton. The doll is usually hand-finished with hair, eyes and other details to appear as realistic as possible.
In general, more expensive sex dolls are of higher quality than cheaper sex dolls. More expensive dolls are often made of high-quality materials such as silicone or better versions TPE, which provides a more realistic feel and durability. In addition, more expensive dolls often have advanced internal skeletons and can assume different positions, while cheaper dolls tend to be less flexible. More expensive dolls may also have more detailed features, such as facial features, eyes and hair, making them appear even more realistic. While it may be tempting to save on a cheaper doll, the quality and durability of more expensive dolls can make the investment well worth it.

The difference between a cheap and expensive sex doll
Yes, some manufacturers offer the option of having sex dolls custom-made. This means you can fully customize the doll to your specific needs and preferences, such as height, weight, skin color, hair type and other body features. However, this can be more expensive than buying a standard doll, and it can also take longer to produce and deliver. In addition, it is good to know that a custom sex doll has not been tested as extensively as a standard model. Therefore, the quality of a custom model is often not as good as standard models.
DutchDoll does not provide custom models because we want to optimize the quality of each doll and because our aim is to keep the price low.
If a brand that adheres to the guidelines is chosen, sex dolls are safe to use. It is important that a manufacturer use safe and non-toxic materials, such as medical silicone or TPE.
It is also important that the manufacturer does not add toxic materials to this, such as certain solvents. Guidelines for this vary by country, so our advice is always to buy from a European supplier who can demonstrate that their products have been tested for safety and suitability for human use.
It is also important to maintain sex dolls by cleaning and disinfecting them regularly to prevent the growth of bacteria and other pathogens. Furthermore, it is important not to overload the doll by forcing it into unnatural positions and to always be careful not to damage the doll.
If a sex doll is cleaned and disinfected regularly, it is unlikely that it can transmit diseases. Sex pads made from safe and non-toxic materials such as medical silicone or TPE can be safely used by people without health risks as long as they are maintained according to the manufacturer’s instructions and are cleaned and disinfected before and after each use. It is important to remember that if you share a sex doll with someone else, there are risks of disease transmission. Therefore, it is important to always use a new condom if you plan to share the doll with another person.
When renting a sex doll, it is also always advisable to use a condom because you cannot be sure if the user before you has properly disinfected it.
TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) and silicone are both materials commonly used to make sex dolls. The main difference between the two is that TPE is softer and more flexible than silicone, giving it a more realistic feel. TPE is also slightly more porous than silicone, meaning it can pick up more dirt and bacteria if not cleaned properly. Silicone, on the other hand, is more durable and easier to clean than TPE, and it is non-porous, making it less susceptible to dirt and bacteria.
Because silicone dolls are often relatively hard, it is possible to “draw” the face more beautifully using makeup. That looks very nice in pictures. The downside is that in reality it looks somewhat unnatural and because of the hardness, the mouth anus and vagina are often less usable.
Yes, sex dolls can be appropriate for people with both mental and physical disabilities. Sex dolls are frequently purchased by-and for-people with mental illnesses such as autism or anxiety disorders who find it difficult to form relationships with other people.
For people with physical disabilities, sex dolls may also be appropriate. Just be aware that sex dolls are fairly heavy and sometimes difficult to move.
Yes, it is definitely possible to rent sex dolls instead of buying them. There are some rental companies specifically for sex dolls. It is possible both to have a the doll delivered to you, and to use a doll on location.
DutchDoll does not offer rentals itself, but we supply several rental companies. Feel free to contact us if you are looking for advice on a reliable rental company.
Maintaining your sex doll is important to extend its life and ensure that it remains safe and hygienic to use. Here are some general tips for maintaining a sex doll:
Clean your sex doll regularly. Use mild soap and lukewarm water to clean the outside of the doll. Be sure to clean the inside of the doll as well.
Dry your sex doll completely before storing it. Use a soft towel to pat the doll dry and then leave it in a well-ventilated place to dry completely. You can dry the inside using a microfiber cloth.
Powder the doll with talcum powder. This can help keep the doll’s skin soft and smooth. In older models, this step was necessary after each use. With new models of DutchDoll, we recommend doing this only when you notice the skin getting a little sticky or dry.
Avoid direct sunlight and heat sources. Exposure to direct sunlight or heat sources can damage the doll’s skin.
Use a condom. This can help keep the doll clean.
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for maintaining your particular sex doll. Each type of sex doll may have different maintenance instructions depending on the material and construction. Therefore, always consult the manufacturer’s instructions for specific recommendations.
By following these tips, you can ensure that your sex doll remains safe and hygienic to use and lasts longer.
Yes, the use of lubricant is highly recommended . A sex doll does not naturally become moist like a real woman, so it can feel a bit stiff without lube. With TPE and silicone sex dolls, it is important to use a water-based lubricant. Silicone-based lubricants can affect TPE and silicone.
The price of a sex doll depends on several factors, including the quality the size of the doll, the degree of realism and the brand name.
In general, sex dolls can range in price from several hundred euros to thousands of euros. The cheapest sex dolls are usually made of cheaper materials and have limited features, while the more expensive models, such as those from DutchDoll, are made of high-quality TPE.
You can buy the cheapest sex dolls from around €500, while the more expensive models can cost as much as ten thousand euros.
In pictures the difference in price is often not noticeable, but in practice you will see and feel the differences. Therefore, it is always advisable to check out a doll in a store first and read independent reviews before proceeding with the purchase.
The lifespan of a sex doll depends on several factors, including the quality of the material, the frequency and intensity of use, and the degree of maintenance and care given to the doll. In general, sex dolls can last several years if properly cared for and maintained, but the life span can be shortened if the doll is used frequently, not cleaned properly or exposed to extreme temperatures or humidity. It is important to follow the manufacturer’s instructions for maintaining and caring for the sex doll and to clean it regularly and store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture.
Whether a sex doll can be repaired depends on the nature and extent of the damage. Smaller problems such as cracks or holes in the material can often be repaired with special TPE or silicone adhesive, while larger problems such as severe cracks or structural damage may not be repairable. If the damage is covered by the manufacturer’s warranty, it may be able to be repaired or replaced at no charge. In other cases, it may be necessary to take the doll to a professional repair shop, although this may be potentially expensive. Therefore, it is important to follow the manufacturer’s instructions for maintaining and using the sex doll to minimize damage and extend the life of the doll.
There is some evidence that sex dolls can help reduce sexual problems, especially in men with erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation or fear of sexual intimacy. Using a sex doll can help these men feel comfortable experimenting with different sexual positions and techniques without worrying about performing or satisfying a partner’s desires. Moreover, using a sex doll can increase sexual imagination and self-confidence, which can lead to better sexual performance and overall sexual health. However, it is important to remember that sex dolls are no substitute for real human interaction and that it is important to address any underlying psychological or medical issues that cause sexual problems.
When you are not using your sex doll, it is important to store it properly to prolong its life and prevent it from being damaged. Here are some tips for saving a sex doll:
Clean the doll thoroughly and let it dry completely before storing it.
Powder the doll with talcum powder or cornstarch to prevent the material from becoming sticky or sticking together.
Store the doll in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and humidity. It is best to store the doll in its original packaging.
If you’re not going to use the doll for an extended period of time, consider rotating or changing its position occasionally to avoid permanently flattening the material.
By storing your sex doll the right way, you can ensure that it lasts as long as possible and is always ready for use whenever you want.
The laws surrounding sex dolls vary from country to country. Although it is legal to possess sex dolls in most countries, there are some countries where both their possession, production and sale are illegal. Moreover, in some countries, sex dolls depicting children or animals are considered child pornography or animal cruelty, which is also illegal. One example is Germany, where sex dolls smaller than 148 cm are banned.
It is important to mention that all of DutchDoll’s sex dolls are legal in all European countries.
