Identity Theft Protection Roller Stamp, Address Blocker Stamp for Hiding Personal Information, Addresses & Confidential Data

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.

Brilliant idea. So easy to use, great it comes with refills. Really good value for money and it saves having to spread thing's. There's no mess and so effective. Just roll over information and it's backed out.

Great little item. Easy to refill, and can reorder replacement refills. Had my last one for about 3 years before it clogged up.

Very easy to use, it is nice and simple and does the job very effectively. Replacing the ink is easy but not quite as easy as you might think from the description as it can get a bit blobby and you have to wait for the last bit to settle before squeezing the capsule, but having said that, they are seem to work in the same way so this one is no better or worse than the others and it is surprisingly UNmessy given you are squeezing thick black ink into a tiny hole. It is possibly I haven't quite got the knack but in any case, it is fine and the overall use is excellent so I'd recommend this item from this seller.

Worth the money just to save time removing the name & addresses from the junk mail. Certainly hides the details. and it's a lot quicker. Just hope that the ink cartridges continue to be made available as my previous one went in the bin when the ink run out,

Amazing item

The item is good quality good value for money

Very easy to use and very effective

This works well as advertised - used primarily on junk mail to hide addresses before trashing. Refills untested thus far but hope they work as it comes with 6 refills. Well cased with directions.

Zamazywacz w 100% spełnia swoją rolę, czasami muszę przejechać dwa razy aby dokładniej pokryło powierzchnię. Dzięki temu produktowi przestałem się martwić o wyrzucane etykety i korespondencję, ale głównie etykiety na paczkach.

Correspondant parfaitement à la description

Working great to cover up sensitive information on labels and paper.

Product was delivered promptly and in good order. The roller stamp can cover p&c as the ink is evenly distributed and does not make a mess. Am satisfied with the product.
