Three Things No One Tells You About Being In A Vacbed

Three Things No One Tells You About Being in a Vacbed

Recently, I finally finished a big DIY project: building a vacbed for Mistress’s dungeon. Neither of us had ever been in a vacbed before, but we’re sharing what we learned so you won’t be surprised to when you get to try a vacbed. (And you DEFINITELY want to try a vacbed.)

It’s even tighter that you think it’s going to be

Everyone says that a vacbed is the tightest rubber bondage you can feel, but hearing that line for years still wasn’t enough to prepare me for the experience.

As the vacuum is turned on, the sheets of the vacbed will start closing in on you. Soon, it puts soft pressure on every part of your body, a little like being buried in pillows. The pressure increases until you can’t move, and you think you’re now in the rubber bondage you dreamed of.

And then it gets tight.

The pressure keeps increasing, as the latex begins stretching itself over every crevice of your body. The flat sheets will stretch to find its way between your fingers, the crack between your arm and your body, and against every contour of your face. It will keep going until you’re completely sealed.

The tight latex of a vacbed isn’t the same as a form fitted catsuit or hood. The latex of a vacbed is simple, flat sheets. The tightness is the latex stretching to completely envelope you. The perfect outline you see of a vacbed “victim” is from the flat latex sheeting pressing against them so hard that it forces itself into their shape.

… And it can be even tighter if you wear latex underneath.

My second go-round with the vacbed, I wore some of my usual latex. This should have been obvious, but that the vacuum will suck out all all of the air in the vacbed then suck all of the air in your latex clothing as well. Effectively, you’re wearing a second vacuum-sealed layer, this one already tailored to your body.

Adding a second layer of rubber pushed the experience from “tight” to “intense”. The hood and catsuit increased the pressure of the bondage, but, it was an even pressure added all across my body.

This was an experience I wouldn’t do again for fun. Being squeezed like that really pushed my endurance, and I want to be able to stay stored in the vacbed for as long as possible.

The vacbed will leave marks

I didn’t expect the vacbed to leave marks. Where the two sheets of rubber met against my body, it left a distinct line of red pressure prickles. It makes sense – if you’re being compressed between two sheets of rubber, the minute space between them will be pinching you. The prickles don’t hurt, and they will fade in about two days, but they’re distinct enough that they will be asked about.

That same seam between the two sheets will also pull your hair. If you have long hair, consider packing a swim cap.
