What’s the difference between a TPE Sex Doll, a Silicone Sex Doll and a Masturbator? This is a question we get often, as we have all three types of sex toys on our site. They are absolutely different things, and while we see some cross over in terms of features, it’s important to know the difference before shopping for a sex a doll.
The biggest difference you’ll notice is price – Silicone sex dolls can come in between $2500 and $4000. TPE sex dolls will run from $600 – $1500, and masturbators will be much cheaper. They cost anywhere from $25 – $600. Those are very rough estimates, bu they will give you a quick benchmark for determining what is what on our site.
What are Masturbators?
Masturbators are large men’s sex toys, often made of TPE variants like FantaFlesh, Cyberskin and SexFlesh. They usually life-like models of various body parts. They are less expensive than larger Sex Dolls, but will get you off just as fabulously. Because they don’t have the same level of “personality” that a luxury sex doll has, we recommend them for married people and couples.

Masturbators are generally male sex toys – although the transsexual versions sell VERY well – molded after different parts of the female or male body.
Masturbators can be life-like, but they can also have a more ‘artistic’ look. They are humans paired down to their sexiest parts. They come in all shapes and sizes, from smaller Fleshlights to full-blown female torsos complete with vaginal and anal holes as well as amazingly shaped breasts.
These are meant to do get you off without any of the fancy custom sculpting and pose-able bodies of the sex dolls that can cost up to 10x as much. And they get you off well.
What are TPE Sex Dolls?
TPE Sex Dolls are what you see most of at our site. These are hyper realistic sex dolls made of a futuristic compound called TPE, that look like amazingly beautiful women and feel incredibly realistic.
TPE sex dolls are mid-range sex dolls. They are more expensive than masturbators but cheaper than luxury silicone sex dolls. A good TPE sex doll will cost you from $500 for a solid mini sex doll to upwards of $2000 for a life-size doll.
TPE stands for Thermo Plastic Elastomer. It’s a blend of different silicone and plastic compounds that creates a soft spongy material that can be sculpted and stretched. TPE can stretch up to 5.5 times its original size and still retain it’s shape. This is what makes it especially good for sex dolls.
Most TPE dolls come with an interior skeleton that has metal joints. This lets you pose the doll in any number of positions. Because TPE is so flexible and malleable, when you put the doll in a new pose, the skin will just retake it’s original shape. You won’t get any sagging skin in the doll.
You can find a TON of TPE sex dolls on our site. There’s a number places to purchase them, we’re recommending Amazon, SiliconWives.com and SexyRealSexDolls.com. All are solid shops. SiliconWives.com is out of NYC and SexyRealSexDolls.com is a Euro outfit.
