The Only Vampire I Want

The Vamp is a soft, slick, silicone dildo, that is also harness compatible, with just enough firmness for easy insertion and g-spot stimulation. It size (both length and girth) is good for both beginners and advanced users. A great all around dildo.
Published: August 14, 2010
Pros:
Great length and girth, can stimulate the g-spot, soft with just enough firmness
Cons:
Lint/Hair magnet, would be perfect if it had a suction cup base
Rating by reviewer:

extremely useful review

Use

The Vamp is a semi-realistic, harness compatible,silicone dildo that has many uses and SPARKLES under the right light! The size and shape feel great when used for shallow or more aggressive thrusting while the pronounced ridge under the head can be angled in a way to provide g-spot stimulation for some users. The size is not very intimidating so most beginners, as well as advanced users, should be have no problem using this dildo. The Vamp has a flared base, so it can be used anally, however due to its size I would recommend it for advanced users.

Material / Texture

This is my first silicone dildo and as soon as I took this out I was amazed at how it felt in my hands! The first thing that went through my mind is "I can't wait to feel this inside of me!" It has a fair amount of give to it that makes it comfortable to use (and fun to squeeze!) , but also has a nice firmness that makes insertion easy. The silicone that the Vamp is made from is very shiny and slick and not matte. There was no smell or taste when I took the Vamp out for the first time since it is made out of 100% premium silicone.

The vamp looks pretty realistic with a normal phallic shape and a realistic head with a pronounced ridge. There is even a slight bit of texture in the form of raised veins that run down the shaft. After playing with this, I would say that the veining on the shaft is barely felt and should not cause problems for those who do not enjoy texture. However, if you are someone who does not enjoy ridges on the heads of dildos, because they can catch on the pubic bone, then you might find the Vamp uncomfortable during play.
    • Flexible
    • No odor
    • Not porous at all

Design / Shape / Size

The Vamp is realistic in appearance and measures 6 3/4 inches in length with 6 1/4 inches insertable. It has a diameter of 1 1/2 inches and a 5 inch circumference, so it is not too large for a beginner but at the same time this size can also be enjoyed by a more advanced user. The head of this toy is the largest part, so the girth is a little more manageable after this part is inserted.
The shaft is straight and has veins that may provide extra stimulation for some, but I didn't seem to notice them too much. One of my favorite aspects of the Vamp is his head and the exagerrated ridge! Although some may find this uncomfortable if it catches on their pubic bone, I find it to be great of g-spot stimulation.

    • Realistic

Performance

The Vamp works really well for thrusting, and for me it also worked really well for g-spot stimulation. The firmness and slickness of this toy makes insertion very easy while the nice amount of give that the Vamp has makes use very comfortable. It is easy to get the Vamp to work with your body shape during use.
I do not own a harness, so I do not know how well it works when used in one. Also, as I am, very much, a beginner to anal play, I have not had the opportunity to test the Vamp in this area.
    • Comfortable
    • Easy to use
    • Lots of variety in function

Care and Maintenance

With silicone toys, it is best to stick to water based lubricants as silicone can cause bad reactions with the material and ruin your toy!

Since the Vamp is made from 100% premium quality silicone, he is very easy to care for. To clean you can wash him in warm water with anti-bacterial soap, use toy cleaner, or run him through the dishwasher. Silicone can also be sterilized by boiling or wiping it down with a 10% bleach solution.

I store my Vamp in a satin pouch that I have because he is a LINT MAGNET! So I would also suggest cleaning him both before and after use to ensure that he is clean for play.
    • Easy to clean
    • Easy to maintain
    • Easy to store

Packaging

The Vamp comes packaged in Tantus packaging. It is a clear plastic box that has a little information about Tantus and their silicone toys. Inside the box is a plastic insert that is fitted around the toy. I do not use this for storage because it is not very discreet, but some people may want to store their Vamp in the original packaging if privacy is not an issue.
If giving as a gift that needs to be discreet, I would suggest putting it inside a box that does not disclose so much about what is inside.
    • Not discreet

Personal comments

I did not buy the Vamp because I like Twilight or vampires, it just looked like a great dildo and I must say that I am happy with my purchase. In my opinion the Vamp works well as an all around dildo. It can be used for thrusting ( shallow and gentle or more intense), g-spot stimulation ( for most, depending on your body shape), and it can also be used as an anal toy for more advanced users. If you are looking for a dildo to satisfy the above needs then I highly recommend the Vamp!
The only thing that would make this toy perfect in my opinion, is if the harness compatible base also functioned as a suction cup base.

Experience

As this was my first silicone toy, I didn't know what to expect the first time I used it. After a little bit of warm up, I was able to easily insert and begin to thrust with the Vamp. I was not expecting to get such nice g-spot stimulation from the ridge under the head(in fact I was a little nervous about the ridge). The flexibility and give of this toy made it so that as I slid it in and out, I could also run some of the shaft along my clit for added stimulation. Upon orgasm, the soft but firm feel of the material, feels so nice to contract on.
    • Lots of uses
Follow-up commentary
I still love the Vamp because it is such a great all around dildo for me. I love the ridge under the head, the size, the give of the material, everything. There is only one other silicone toy that ranks higher than the Vamp in my collection and that is the Vixskin version of the Johnny. That makes the Vamp my second favorite silicone toy and I am pretty sure this will be a favorite of mine for a while. I highly recommend it to both beginners and experienced users!

My vamp is a lint creator. I swear, I take it out of the ziploc bag for less than 1 minute, and it's got dog hair, and crap and dust on it. Lint is evil.

    • 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.
