Introduction – The Most Asked Questions Answered
New and experienced sex doll owners often have the same concerns: shipping surprises, cleaning confusion, and storage worries. These three areas cause the majority of problems – from damaged deliveries to sticky skin or mold. This FAQ collects the most common questions about transport/shipping, cleaning, and storage, with clear, practical answers based on real owner experiences and manufacturer guidelines.
1. Shipping & Transport – Common Questions
Q: Will my sex doll arrive discreetly?A: Yes – all reputable sellers ship in plain, unmarked boxes (usually labeled “fitness equipment”, “mannequin”, or “statue”). No logos, images, or explicit text appear on the outside. Inside is protected by thick foam and plastic wrap. In most countries, customs declarations use neutral terms.
Q: How long does shipping take, and what if there’s damage?A: Standard shipping: 7–20 days (EU/US domestic faster, international slower). Damage during transport is rare but covered by insurance from good sellers. Inspect immediately upon arrival – report any issues (broken fingers, tears) with photos within 48–72 hours for warranty claim.
Q: Can I pick up locally or avoid shipping risks?A: Many EU/US sellers offer warehouse pickup (no shipping cost/risk). In-stock models arrive faster and safer. Always choose sellers with local warehouses if possible.
2. Cleaning – Most Frequent Problems & Solutions
Q: How do I clean the orifices properly without mold?A: Use lukewarm water + mild antibacterial soap. Flush with irrigator or shower hose (low pressure). Dry completely with absorbent sticks or small USB fan (30–60 min). Never leave moisture inside – mold starts in 24–48 hours if wet.
Q: My TPE doll became sticky after a few uses – what now?A: Normal oil bleed. Clean with soap, dry fully, then apply renewal powder (corn starch or talc-free) generously. Focus on thighs, under breasts, armpits. Repeat weekly or after heavy use. Avoid baby powder with talc – it can clog pores.
Q: Can I use alcohol or strong cleaners on silicone?A: No – alcohol degrades silicone over time. Use only mild soap or toy cleaner. For tough stains, test 70% isopropyl on hidden spot first. Always rinse well and dry.
3. Storage – Avoiding Creases, Dust & Damage
Q: What’s the best way to store a full-body doll long-term?A: Hang from neck hook on sturdy stand (prevents creases). Keep in cool, dark, dry place (no direct sun, no humidity). Use light dust cover. Remove wig and store separately on stand.
Q: How do I store a torso without taking up space?A: Drawer, large box, or suitcase works best. Lay flat on soft surface (no pressure on breasts/butt). Pad with foam if stacking. Keep upright in closet if possible – avoids flattening.
Q: How do I prevent dust and oil stains during storage?A: Clean and powder (TPE) before storing. Use breathable cotton or silk bag/cover. Avoid plastic bags – trap moisture. Check monthly: wipe, re-powder (TPE), inspect for dust or new stains.
Bonus Tips from Owners

Conclusion
Shipping, cleaning, and storage are the three areas where most sex doll problems start – and where proper habits prevent almost all issues. Choose discreet, insured shipping; clean and dry thoroughly after every use; store smartly to avoid creases, dust, and mold.
Follow these basics consistently, and your doll stays beautiful, hygienic, and enjoyable for years.
