Tenga Vacuum Max — Test & Review
![Tenga Vacuum Max review](https://wp.bedbible.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Tenga-Vacuum-Max-Feature-Image.jpg)
My Verdict
Overall, the Tenga Vacuum Max is a great product that changes the way you would normally experience a Tenga Cup. While I really like this product, it has a major downside, depending on the user. When you buy this product, it gives you only one usage, as the Tenga Cup that comes with it is a single-use item. That means that the Vacuum Controller II becomes useless afterward. If you already oftentimes buy Tenga Cups, then this itself shouldn't be a problem, but if you have never stepped foot into Tenga products, I would recommend that you first try a normal Tenga Cup and see if you like it or not, and then decide for yourself whether this product is for you or not, as otherwise you end up with the Vacuum Controller becoming a useless accessory after a single use.
Buy, if you...
- want a vacuum controller for Tenga Cups
- already are a fan of Tenga products and use them
- are willing to pay per use
- don't want to deal with cleanup
Don't buy, if you...
- are unwilling to pay per use
- are looking for a cheap experience
About The Tenga Vacuum Max
The Tenga Vacuum Max comes with the Tenga Vacuum Controller II and a Tenga Cup, which you need for the Vacuum Controller to function. The Tenga Vacuum Controller is a sleek and modern addition to the world of sex toys. Its intuitive design and ease of use enhance the experience you can have with the Tenga Cups. With this Vacuum controller, you can create a vacuum inside the normal Tenga Cup and create suction to enhance your overall experience. Depending on your preference, you can then choose between a different pattern or adjust the suction level to your liking.
Pros
- ✅Great sensation and texture (Tenga Cup)
- ✅Great suction
- ✅No cleanup is necessary.
Cons
- ❌Without a Tenga Cup, the controller is useless.
- ❌Tenga Cups are single-use items that cost about $10–20 per cup.

Personal Experience
![My Personal Experiences with Tenga Vacuum Max](https://wp.bedbible.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Tenga-Vacuum-Max-Personal-Experience-scaled.jpg)
First Impressions
Upon unboxing the product, I was immediately impressed by the simplicity of the setup compared to some other products I have tested. The device itself felt sturdy and well-constructed, with an intuitive control layout that made the product easy to use.What Worked For Me
Using the Tenga Vacuum Controller was a seamless experience. The simplicity of attaching the vacuum controller to the Tenga Cup and the pre-lubricated nature of the cup made the preparation process quick and hassle-free. The suction modes and rhythm settings added a new dimension to the experience, making it far more enjoyable than using a standard masturbator. The texture of the Tenga Cup itself was fantastic, providing intense sensations even without the vacuum feature. The cleanup itself was also one of the highlights for me, as there is no cleanup necessary as this is a single-use product that you throw away after use, meaning there is no need to clean it.What Didn’t Work For Me
While the Tenga Vacuum Controller excelled in many areas and brought a great overall experience with it, there was one major downside. The cost of the single-use Tenga Cups, which are necessary for the Tenga Vacuum Controller to function, as without those you end up with a useless device. This makes it an expensive option if you want to frequently use this product.Design
![Tenga Vacuum Max Design](https://wp.bedbible.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Tenga-Vacuum-Max-Design-scaled.jpg)
The Tenga Vacuum Controller has a simple and modern design. It's easy to use the buttons and connect it to the Tenga Cup. As the device only has a few buttons, you are not overwhelmed with which to use, enhancing your overall experience. The Tenga Cup itself is also looking very modern and simple, though if you are a fan of orifice entrances with masturbators, I need to disappoint you as this one has a neutral opening.
Ease of Use
![Tenga Vacuum Max Ease of Use](https://wp.bedbible.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Tenga-Vacuum-Max-Ease-Of-Use-scaled.jpg)
This product is certainly easy to use. All you need to do is charge the vacuum controller and place it on the Tenga Cup. Before use, you remove the cover from the Tenga Cup and open the cap. That's it; there is nothing more to do, as the Tenga Cup is already pre-lubricated. After the session, there is nothing more you need to do. As the Tenga Cup is a single-use item, you simply throw it away afterward.
Quality
![Tenga Vacuum Max Quality](https://wp.bedbible.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Tenga-Vacuum-Max-Quality-scaled.jpg)
The vacuum controller itself is definitely of higher quality. It looks and feels good, but on the other hand, the Tenga Cup is undoubtedly not of higher quality, but it isn't designed for this as it is a throwaway product: you use it once and throw it away. The outside feels and is very cheap, but surprisingly, on the inside, the main aspect, the texture of the cup, certainly feels good, making up for the outside, which itself I don't even care about as this is not a Fleshlight nor a FeelStar which are designed for continuous use, unlike this one.
Price
![Tenga Vacuum Max Price](https://wp.bedbible.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Tenga-Vacuum-Max-Price-scaled.jpg)
The Tenga Vacuum Max is priced at $170, though you can get it for cheaper if you decide to avoid their retail store and buy through a different store for about $120-130. A problem though is that every single time you want to use the Vacuum Controller, you need to have a compatible cup, which unfortunately are one-use, disposable items with each costing about $10-20, which quickly sums up and is very expensive to say the least. The items are great, no question, but whether they are worth so much per use is a question everyone needs to ask themselves. With this I need to quickly address a point: if you already use Tenga Cups and don't mind that those are single-use only, then buying this vacuum controller is certainly for you to make a change in experience; however, if you have never had contact with Tenga and are unfamiliar with this I would rather recommend to first test the Cups themselves and see if those are for you before making this purchase. Depending on this entire fact, it decides if this product is for you or not.
Performance
![Tenga Vacuum Max Performance](https://wp.bedbible.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Tenga-Vacuum-Max-Performance-scaled.jpg)
So firstly, to address the performance of the vacuum controller, for me, it worked flawlessly, adding to a much different experience than using a regular masturbator without the vacuum. You have two suction modes and three different rhythm modes to choose and combine them, which definitely enhances your session instead of just regularly using the Tenga Cups. Then we have the Tenga Cups themselves, which come pre-lubricated and are designed for single-use, meaning you throw them away afterward, which comes to one point: expenses. For more information regarding the pricing point, just scroll up to the previous category where I addressed this point. Nevertheless, these cups differentiate from each other, texture-wise, and I have only tried the one coming with this package, so I can only give my opinion based on this one, and it absolutely feels great, even without the controller itself.
Packaging
![Tenga Vacuum Max Packaging](https://wp.bedbible.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Tenga-Vacuum-Max-Packaging-scaled.jpg)
There is not much to say regarding the packaging. The packaging definitely looks good with its modern style, also presenting the Tenga Cup with its see-through material. Within the package, you find the Tenga Vacuum Controller II, the Tenga Vacuum Cup, a USB cable, and a user manual covering everything you need to know about the product and how to use it. As the cup is already pre-lubricated, you don't even need to buy or have lube to use the product.
Materials and care

Besides the performance, this is definitely the best part of the product for me. The most troublesome thing about using a sex toy for me is, without a doubt, the cleanup. Even though you become accustomed to it, and it doesn't bother you after some time, in the end it is still a hassle, and this product showed this for me in a perfect example. After you are finished, you simply remove the vacuum controller from the Tenga Cup, throw away the cup, and store away the vacuum controller, as it shouldn't get dirty in the session. If you want, you can wipe it with a wet cloth, but don't clean it with water, as it isn't waterproof. To add on further information, the Vacuum Controller is made of Elastomer, ABS, Silicone, PC and Li-ion Polymer Battery, while the Cup is made of TPE, PE, PP and PU.
