There are many, many different materials that you can choose from. Just wondering what everybody likes/dislikes and why or why not.

I love silicone, I like the safety rating of glass too but don't often crave such solid toys.
10/29/2012
Silicone & plastic. Haven't tried glass yet.
10/29/2012
Glass and Silione, both for different reasons.
10/29/2012
I love silicone , and I know that the skin-like materials aren't that great for you, but I just love how they feel.
10/29/2012
I want to try ceramic one day too!

I love toys made with stainless steel, wood, and silicone; and I'm thinking of giving ceramic toys a try.

I have used silicone, hard plastics, and rubber and I like them all. The rubber/ skin-like toy I have is my least favorite though but that could be because it is the hardest for me to use. That toy is not a vibrating toy, it has a suction cup and it is a bit big for me as well as it is awkward for me to use it. I found a better use for it though, I stuck it to my shower wall as a gag to company that comes over. I about died laughing when a friend of mine came over for a visit and went in to use the bathroom. She saw it and screamed,"Holy Hell! Has life got so dull that you needed a cock in the shower too!" My reply was,"My shower was jealous of my husband and wanted a cock too."

Silicone is my "default" material that I tend to buy because of it's safety. It's also easy to clean and care for, and feels nice!
I really want to try one of those wood ones someday though.

Glass and silicone are my favourites. I've tried plastic and it's fine, I just prefer the others. I want to try metal next.

Silicone and glass, but I would like to try wood as well. I like to stick to more natural materials.

Love silicone and glass. Wood is so beautiful, might have to give it a try.
11/18/2012
Silicone, vix skin.

Silicone and glass. I said metal too because I think I'll like it, but I haven't tried it yet. Haven't tried stone or wood or some of the others yet either.
11/18/2012
I have yet to try many of those materials but so far my favorites are silicone, glass and steel.
11/18/2012
My favorite toys are made of glass or silicone. Safety and ease of cleaning is a major issue for me.
11/18/2012
Glass, metal, and silicone.

Silicone, but also wouldn't want to do without my metal wand. Or hard plastic clit vibe.

I like silicone the most, but i also love glass and metal. plastic for things like bullets.

I'm really fond of silicone but I'm eager to try out other materials (glass and steel especially).
12/27/2012
I'm pretty much open to anything but jelly and wood.
12/27/2012
wood, metal, glass and silicone....I try to stay with those
12/27/2012
Silicone is my favorite too with glass as a close second.

There are stone toys? Ouch.

Silicone is my #1, glass is my #2.
12/27/2012
Depends what it's for. I like using skin-like toys for oral better than silicone, but for insertion, it has to be silicone or glass. Vixskin (dual-density silicone) is my #1 favorite.
01/08/2013
plastic
01/08/2013
Silicone is a given. But glass is my favorite of all.

I love silicone, but plastic would have to be my #1 because I love silicone lube the best.

Does safety play a part in why you do or do not like a certain material?

There are quite a few toys that I would love to try but I don't want to risk it with the material they are made of. It's not like I'll only use 10's, but I have yet to use a 2 or something.

Yes, I try to avoid certain items that are made of jelly and such.
10/29/2012
Yes. I will NOT buy something under 7 or 8. I will wait for something better and similar to come out.

I agree with Skeeterlynn, I prefer things to be above a 7 but try to only get things that can be completely sterilized!!! I don't want to toss something cause I ended up with a yeast infection or UTI an used the item before catching it in time an then having to toss it.

10/30/2012
Wood scares me
10/30/2012
Yes. Anything that is porous I don't want going into me. It's the not being able to fully clean it and the questionable ingredients in the materials.
10/30/2012
safty first

Yes, it is very important.

It plays a factor for me, but I don't freak out about, say, Jelly and parabens like some people do.
11/18/2012
Safety is absolutely a factor! One of my number 1 factors in fact.
11/18/2012
The only thing I won't use is jelly toys. I have no issue with latex, rubber, or PVC. I clean my toys very well and they aren't shared with anyone. As for phthalates, they're pretty much ubiquitous in our environment. So if I have a toy in me for an hour, I don't think it's gonna make much difference. If I can get silicone, I'll go for that just because I like the feel of the material best. I have two glass plugs that I love but would not use a glass dildo anally. It has no give to it and could cause damage. If I could afford a metal plug, I'd love to give it a try.
11/19/2012
Yes it is
11/19/2012
I do. I love my no nos and would like to keep them safe from harm.

You didn't put jelly in the list!
I voted "skin-like", which I assume you mean the UR3 and similar materials. I love the feeling, but the material is so porous. It would be nice if that type of material were safer.

I HATE Jelly and am allergic to it which I am okay with since its porous and has a strong smell. I also don't like latex items as I am allergic to latex.
10/29/2012
Rubber, skin like, and jelly
10/29/2012
PVC, jelly, skinlike stuff like cyberskin and Uwhatever -- basically anything rubber, porous, and generally unsafe.

Rubber/Jelly as I've heard too many horror stories.
10/29/2012
VixSkin is usually considered "skin-like", even though it's silicone.
10/29/2012
I have been wanting to try glass for a little while now I know I would love the temperature play! I don't like the "skin-like" products.
10/29/2012
I have to agree that Jelly is missing.

Skin like, jelly, anything that is porous.

No jelly for me, I wouldn't use stone either because it's too hard

Jelly. Ew.
11/18/2012
Never cared for rubber or jelly. Tried metal once, wasn't really for us so we'll probably give it another go.
11/18/2012
Rubber, jelly.. The less body safe materials are not ones I'm likely to use or buy at all. There are several materials though, such as wood, and stone that I've never used that I'd love to try.
11/18/2012
Rubber, Cyberskin, jelly...Bad for the body.
Stone just sounds horrible.

Rubber
01/08/2013
Rubber, jelly, pvc. Although some rubber is not nearly as smelly as other rubber is. Not sure what the difference is.
01/08/2013
I could never use a wood toy, I'd always be too afraid of splinters.
06/22/2014
No Wood for use either. Although we have never tried it. All of our recent purchases have been Medical grade stainless steel and silicone.
06/22/2014
I think it'sVERY use dependent. For example, the fleshlight material is amazing for masturbators, but would be the last thing I'd want to use for an anal toy. It also depends on if a toy is multi purpose penetration or single purpose. (mouth/vag/anus) even more so if we are talking about external vibrator materials.
