Yes, it is recommended. If you were getting your first TPE doll you would have nothing for comparison and it would be just fine. My original doll was worth the money I paid and I would have been quite content. The new doll is magnificent the makeup is about the same, but the eyelashes are put on correctly this time. The joints are much smoother and easier to move, no noise at all from the neck. The vaginal opening is so much smaller, I thought it was a defect. Surprise, it fit perfect and now no more feeling like she is try to eject me. First night with her is very good.
