Best for Buyers who need to lift and move a full-size doll regularly.
A 148 cm TPE doll listed at about 22 kg (48.5 lb), the lightest full-size doll we found under $1,000.
Best for A first torso that is easy to lift, wash and hide.
A small, light TPE torso with two channels, the cheapest torso in the catalogue that we'd shortlist.
Best for Buyers who want silicone's lower-maintenance surface without paying doll prices.
A light silicone torso with an S-curve shape and two channels, one of the few silicone torsos under $150.
Before you compare faces or body shapes, settle three practical questions: can you lift it, can you store it, and can you clean it? A full-size doll in the current catalogue weighs roughly 48–82 lb net and ships in a box close to 5 feet long. A torso weighs roughly 5–22 lb and fits in a closet or under a bed. For most first-time buyers, a torso is the better value. A full-size doll makes sense if you want a figure to hold, pose and dress, and you have the space and strength to handle one.
TPE dolls need washing, thorough drying and powdering after use, and they stain from dyed fabrics. Silicone is easier to look after but costs more. Our guide to cleaning TPE vs silicone toys covers both.
