Vantamo Address Blocker Stamp for Hiding Sensitive Information, Wide Identity Theft Protection Roller Stamp with 6 Refills, Confidential Ink Roller for Personal Data Theft Prevention, Classy Gray

Durable & works well. It is easy to use & covers sensitive data. Ink dries quickly & stamp simple to clean after use.

I thought I'd try one of these as I sometimes get fed up with ripping labels off before recycling, especially when they tear and take several attempts. The Vantamo one, amongst hundreds of alternatives, seemed to get good reviews and comes with 6 refills of oil-based ink, so took a gamble. I'm not sure which alternatives use water-based ink and I'm not sure which type would be better overall. It's quite sturdy and the roll-over process is very satisfying; it works very well to obscure certain labels, but beware that on some it does not. Looks OK to start with but at certain angles it's possible to read just about everything, so a determined snooper could see through it. Note that these limitations are clearly mentioned in the instructions, though, so there's nothing misleading here. I think the basic rule is: if the ink still appears to be shiny and can smudge off after, say, a minute, then it's not suited to that particular surface and so it may be possible to still see information. I get the impression this is a universal thing, though, and not specific to this model/ink (although I have seen that there may be some inks that are specifically formulated for more shiny surfaces–no experience with those yet as they don't apply to this model). This is an excellent quality device that does its intended job as long as one is careful about the printed surface: always check before recycling! As I said, limitations are clearly documented, 6 refills in the pack AND if you register you get 6 more! Superb! As well as that, an extended warranty and a PDF booklet which is a quite basic, U.S.-centric guide on data security in general which might be useful to some.

Works well. Easy to use. Covers the address. Dries quickly. Value for money. Comes with 6 ink cartridges.

Good product. I’ve had one of these before.

Fantastic item, i didn't know these existed tbh until the wife mentioned them. Far easier and quicker than letting things build up to shred. Well pleased with purchase

Handy for obliterating personal information, use it daily on incoming post and parcels.

Great way to keep your identity safe, one swipe, job done, simple to refill. Saves having to shred everything, our local tip doesn't allow shredded paper!!!

Perfect refills for the vantamo Confidential roller.
