I've never had a jelly toy and I don't plan on getting any. Most of my toys are silicone, but I like plastic too since I prefer hard toys.

Silicone all the way. I have some ABS plastic toys I like too and one jelly toy that has made me hope I never receive a jelly toy again.

Once you go silicone you never go back. Or at least never really want to. I never minded jelly, though. I like flexibility in a toy.

Silicone but now I like glass and stainless steel as well. I disposed of all my jelly toys and those made of mystery substances.

Silicone by a long shot! I usually don't go for plastic and I steer clear of jelly completely!

Silicone, but I have to admit, I am in LOVE with my Ultra Gelle luscious Thrill Her! It's somehow managed to be my fav! So, I like silicone, but I really enjoy jelly too.

silicone purly because it's more body safe. I do love the colors that jelly toys come in.

Jelly is very porous - harboring bacteria which can lead to various health issues. Jelly also has various chemicals that many people have adverse reactions to. The most common symptom is a burning sensation. We've used jelly toys in the past - but my wife has developed a sensitivity to the chemicals - so if we ant to use them we need a condom.

Silicone on the other hand is 'inert' - that is there are no chemicals that you can develop a sensitivity to. They are also considered 'non-porous' meaning it is difficult for bacteria to get a foot hold and grow.

Thorough washing and periodic sanitizing is a good idea. Some use diluted bleach solutions - I prefer alcohol.

EF also has material descriptions;
