After a year of changes in 2023, we’ve obtained some intriguing data that we’d like to share.
As one of the primary distributors of sex dolls in 2023, we visited numerous factories, including notable brands such as WM Doll, Innotech Doll, Ridmii Doll, and Realing Doll, alongside several smaller factories. Remarkably, many of these smaller factories produced exquisitely detailed products.
Through these visits and by examining the orders and products they manufacture, coupled with our own sales data, we’ve discerned the overall sex doll trends of 2023 and observed some shifts in the market for 2024:
1.The demand for taller sex dolls is increasing.
Previously, most sex dolls were relatively small, ranging from 140cm to 160cm, with a few popular models around 170cm. However, changing tastes have led to the evolution of custom dolls sizing from 170cm to 180cm. Some factories have even received orders for dolls as tall as 190cm, suggesting a trend towards a variety of preferences.
2.There’s a gradual decrease in the preference for BBW dolls.
BBW sex dolls were initially designed to offer a unique experience, but tastes regarding body shape have become more balanced. Demand for extremely plump or obese models has stabilized, with a growing number of orders for dolls of average body shape.
3.Customers don’t seem to focus heavily on the doll’s facial features.
While we initially believed that only beautiful dolls would be popular, this has not been the case. Many dolls with average or unique faces are actually preferred by many customers. Also, we’ve observed diverse facial style preferences even within the same region, which makes it challenging to predict regional tastes. Consequently, we aim to provide a wider range of faces for people to choose from.
4.Pregnant sex dolls are slowly gaining popularity.
Surprisingly, pregnant sex dolls with larger bellies have started to sell well. Despite requiring more material for their creation, many people like this style.
5.Despite a brief surge in popularity, torso products haven’t significantly impacted the market.
Torso products were a temporary trend. Many consumers have reported that these are often a one-time purchase. On a second viewing, due to their incomplete form, they appear strange. Indeed, a complete sex doll not only satisfies sexual desires, but also offers companionship and aesthetic pleasure.
6.TPE sex dolls continue to hold a strong market presence.
Some predict that by 2024, TPE sex dolls will be obsolete, and silicone dolls will dominate the market. However, production and sales data show that while silicone doll sales are rising, TPE sex dolls continue to receive steady orders. Whether in terms of cost-effectiveness or presentation, TPE sex dolls have their unique appeal.
