This Vamp doesn't suck

Overall, a great toy with many applications for a great price. An enjoyable challenge for a beginner and no frills elegance for the experienced. A truly worthy dildo for any collection.
Published: March 14, 2010
Pros:
High quality, fits a strap-on harness but fun without, non-toxic, a lot of bang for your buck.
Cons:
Limited color choice, slightly flimsy base making it slightly less secured in a strap-on.

Use

My favorite way to use the Vamp is to have my girlfriend have sex with me while it's secured in an O-ring style strap-on harness. She also enjoys using the dildo both vaginally and anally. This toy is suitable for anyone from an adventurous novice to a practiced veteran dildo user. It has plenty of flare to be used in an O-ring strap on harness, while the flare remains large enough and ergonomic enough to be used as a safe and comfortable anal toy.
    • Middle age couples

Material / Texture

The Vamp's premium silicone composition makes it a safe, body friendly dildo without much smell or taste. Minus its artful snow white appearance it looks and feels realistic, complete with head and veins. The silky exterior is slightly malleable and yields when it needs to. While the core is firm enough to maintain vigorous play without getting sloppy.

Design / Shape / Size

Both a combination of realism and surrealism. I found the design to be simple and elegant. Nothing fancy, but no compromises in quality. As far as size is concerned I would say it's a true medium. Any larger and it would be large, any smaller and it would be small. I think it's suitable for the average user, though it's not to be underestimated. At times it can be challenging.

Performance

This is a great toy for the value. Its size, shape, feel, and high quality silicone make it a bargain. It doesn't have a suction cup on the bottom though it seems to suction to whatever surface I stand it upright on. It is O-ring strap-on harness compatible and worked good with my Aslan Jaguar G harness. Though the flare on the base is a little slim so it doesn't lock in as securely as other dildos with thicker bases. However, this slim base is what lends itself to being a fairly comfortable and ergonomic anal toy, rather than its thick based counterparts that leave you feeling like you're sitting on a bar of soap.

Care and Maintenance

Wash with your favorite soap. I use natural dish soap brands because I don't want to be putting chemicals, phosphates, or petroleum inside me. As for lubes, just use your favorite silicone friendly lube.

Packaging

Packaged professionally in a custom fit box, not an old ratty zip-lock bag stapled to cardboard. That's nice.

Experience

Overall a comfortable and fun toy. My only experience of discomfort is that the ridge of the head feels pretty firm and can kinda pull on its way out of you. Also I should note.. For those who are shy or easily embarrassed, the singular color choice of snow white on this dildo easily illuminates any residue left on it. So if that is a concern, perhaps pick something with darker color choices.

You might like to know, that this is the same as Tantus' 'Sire' dildo which comes in black, so there is a tiny bit of colour choice there. Smile

You said: "My only experience of discomfort is that the ridge of the head feels pretty firm and can kinda pull on its way out of you"

Does the ridge catch every time you thrust? Is it painful or just annoying?

It seemed to catch frequently. Both in the ass, and on girlfriends pubic bone (vaginally). It can be painful sometimes, but more often it's just a shock, which can get annoying.

    • Does the Vamp come with a storage pouch or packaging that you can keep it in?
    • There's a really good video review that I think talks about the packaging.

      You can definitely use the packaging for storage. I don't think it was meant to be used that way, but it definitely works,

  • Does it have to sparkle?
    • I like vampires, and I like things that are shiny.

      But I do not like my vampires to be shiny.

      Could there be a non-sparkly version of the Vamp? (did I read somewhere that is used to be non-sparkly, but then Twilight happened and it was made sparkly, or did I imagine that?).

      Just for thought - I can see the logic behind not being able to have multiple versions of one project out; at the same time, lots of products are available in more than one color and it could be a choice like that. :)

      The Vamp is modeled after the Tantus Sire, only sparklier.
