The Best Penis Pumps: Water, Electric, and Precision Pumps for a Larger Member

BY JC Ways


According to Men’s Health, around 30% of men are unhappy with their penis size.

Now if I’m going to play devil’s advocate here, I’m willing to bet that some of that 70% who claimed to be happy about the size of their Johnson were lying due to pride and ego reasons, so I’d bet that the actual number is much closer to 50%.

Still, according to this study, 1 in 3 men are unhappy with their penis size, and that’s a damn shame.

Luckily, penis pumps can come to the rescue! There’s a lot of confusion around the various different types of penis pumps and what the best penis pumps are, so I hope that this article will be able to clear up some of the confusion. Penile pumps can help with penis growth and also erectile dysfunction problems, so it’s always worth considering adding them to your male sex toy collection if you think they’ll improve your sex life!

 Alas, there’s a lot of stigma surrounding the use of cock pumps, but who wouldn’t want to add an inch or two to their dick size? Unless you’re hung like a horse, I’m sure most women (and men) wouldn’t mind you having an extra inch or two for them to play with. Anyway, without further ado, here we’re going to look at some of the best penis extenders for men.

List of the Best Penis Pumps

Bathmate HydroXtreme7 – (Top Pick)

Very well-designed water penis pump

If your penis is 5-7 inches in length and you’re looking for the best penis extender to help improve rigidity, then you may have found it. The Bathmate HydroXtreme7 is quite possibly the best cock pump that the company have ever made, and Bathmate are well known for their contributions to the world of penis pumping.

This pump is designed to allow your penis to reach the maximum pressure considered safe for penises, using water and air pressure to create a vacuum which increases the rigidity, performance and erection stiffness of your cock. According to Medical News Today, the average erect penis size is 5.1 inches, which means that this pump is ideally shaped for the so-called average man.

If you’ve seen the penis pump before and after photos from this product, you’ll certainly notice increases in stiffness which are by no means insignificant. Using lukewarm water with this product is ideal, as it helps to “relax” your penis while it is being put under so much pressure. Water pumps do tend to lead to the best results, which is why Bathmate have become so omnipresent in the penis pumping world.

The product comes with an advanced “handball pump”, which some of you may call a “bulb”. This means that you can now control the pressure simply by using the handball pump, making it easy to achieve maximum pressure without straining yourself or causing harm. It also comes complete with a “comfort pad”, providing users with a comfortable barrier between their skin and the pump. This helps to reduce any pain that some people experience on their groin when using a pump.

When you buy from Bathmate, you can rest assured that you’re getting a really decent product that is going to stand the test of time. All of the company’s hydropumps are free from phthalates and are made from skin-safe medical-grade materials approved by the Aspen Clinical Research Center in the USA. If you’re between 5-7 inches and you’re looking for reliable penis pump results, then the Bathmate HydroXtreme7 is unlikely to steer you wrong.

PROS: Combines the best parts of bulb pumps and water pumps

CONS: Very pricey

Penomet (Runner Up)

Water-assisted dick pump for 30% growth

Now, the manufacturers of the Penomet claim that their water-assisted dick pump can help your penis to grow up to 3 inches in length and an extra 30% in girth, but let me start by saying that I think those numbers are exaggerated. While I and most other reviewers have definitely noticed an increase in size and girth, I think that 3 inches is a bit unrealistic and dare I say dangerous, so I wish that the company wouldn’t suggest that every man will have a massive cock after using this.

In addition to penis extension, the Penomet penile pump also claims to be effective for treating impotence, acting as an erectile dysfunction pump, and also claims to assist with premature ejaculation and sexual stamina, although I’m not sure how it does that exactly. Still, the fit of the pump was very comfortable and I did notice significant positive results after use – it’s made the #2 spot on this list after all! Like a lot of these products, you can easily use the Penomet in the bath or shower, which is really convenient if you’re forgetful like me and you need to be reminded to pump your cock!

The chamber uses an interesting “Gaiter system” for the increase and decrease of pressure, and I actually found it to be really comfortable and useful. Essentially, it allows you to gently fine-tune the vacuum pump cock pressure, meaning that you can increase and reduce the suction very gradually as it suits you.

As you can imagine, this greatly helps to reduce pain and discomfort, making it easy to find a level of pressure which works for you and your Johnson without going overboard. Once you get comfortable with your gaiter of your choice, you can swap it out for a new one which ups the resistance level – the system is totally interchangeable as you progress.

Penomet is a really good product from a reputable manufacturer, and if you use it for several months then maybe you can grow the supposed 3 inches and 30% that they say you can. However, if you want to achieve these coveted results, then you’re going to have to use the pump properly every single day for at least 6 months. Do you really have time for that? Will you always remember to do that?

Consider your commitment to penis pumping before splashing out on such a fancy model like this. We all want the best looking penis we can, but are you willing to put it the time, effort, and money required to grow yours by 3 inches in 6 months? If you are, then go for it! If not, consider other options which require less effort and daily upkeep.

PROS: Award-winning product, unique design, good results

CONS: Expensive

Hydromax7

Great mid-range pump

The Hydromax7 is one of the more affordable high-quality penis pumps on this last, coming in somewhere around $160 depending on the store you buy it from. The so-called “bellows pump” has been designed with 35% more power than the previous incarnation of this product, with Hydromax users reportedly being big fans of the bellows pump system.

Perhaps one of the best things about the Hydromax series is their innovative “comfort pad” which is designed to increase your comfort (as you might imagine) while stopping your testicles from accidentally entering the chamber of the device. Although some of the best penis extender pumps encourage you to put your balls inside the chamber as well, this is not one of those products.

The new “supervalve” design of this product makes it quite easy to use one-handed, at least for parts of your pumping session anyway. This is useful if you’re in a rush in the shower and you’re trying to grow your penis while shampooing your hair at the same time. It’s an unusual problem to need a solution for, but sometimes using your penis pump with one hand can be a bit of a life-saver.

One of my favorite little tweaks to this latest model is that they’ve marked the chamber with both inches and centimeters, so you can keep track of your penis size no matter where you live in the world and no matter what system of measurement you’re using. To be honest, for the vast majority of men who are looking to increase the size of their already-average-sized penis, the pressure of the Hydromax7 is going to be more than enough to keep everyone in the bedroom satisfied.

PROS: 92% customer satisfaction rate

CONS: Only good for people with 5-7-inch penises

Bathmate Hydro7

Updated version of the OG hydropump

Bathmate claim that their Hydro series includes the world’s #1 penile external rigidity device, so it’s safe to say that you’re in pretty good hands with the Hydro7, which also claims to be the world’s first hydropump altogether! These penile extenders are designed with penis extension newbies in mind, so they’re a great first buy if you don’t know how to use a penis pump but you’re curious to find out more.

If you have an average-sized cock (when erect) and you’re looking for a cheap-ish penile pump for beginners, then the Hydro7 is where I would recommend starting. The pressure of the vacuum pump isn’t too much on your cock if you’re not used to it, but you might find that after 6 months or so you need to upgrade to a more advanced model like the Hydromax or something similar. We all gotta start somewhere though!

PROS: Affordable, strong reputation

CONS: Only good if you’re already 5-7 inches

EDGE Stamina Penis Pump (best cheap dick pump)

Cheap bulb pump for beginners

The EDGE Stamina Penis Pump has an insertable length of around 8 inches, making it ideal for the vast majority of men who are trying to get the best looking penis they can. This product is a bulb-based pump, meaning it comes with a squishy bulb which you pump repeatedly to create a vacuum inside the chamber and increase the pressure on your Johnson. Once the pressure becomes uncomfortable or you’re finished with your session, there is a “quick release” valve on the bulb which quickly reduces the pressure and allows the chamber to come off your member easily.

Although this is marketed as a beginner’s dick pump, I do think that you could benefit from some experience in using cock pumps before getting to this product. For example, there is no pressure gauge on bulb pumps such as this one, so it’s all down to guesswork when it comes to knowing what pressure you’re currently putting on your cock. If you’re a newbie to penis pumps and you don’t have an idea of how much pressure to use, this could really cause some serious problems for you. Nonetheless, bulb pumps tend to have limited amounts of pressure at their disposal in the first place.

This pump is actually largely branded as an erectile dysfunction pump, helping men with impotence problems to improve their sexual health and get better erections. The range even comes with an “adjustable stamina ring” that you can buy which essentially acts as a cock ring, maintaining some of the pressure of the vacuum after you take the pump off. This way, you will have an erect penis for longer during sex (unless you take the stamina ring off).

All in all, this is a good go-to pump product for men who are looking for a basic introduction to the world of cock pumping. In my opinion, this is probably the best budget penis pump if you’re looking to grow your cock and increase your sexual stamina without spending a fortune to get there. Less than 50% of Viagra and Cialis users end up refilling their prescriptions due to disappointing results, so maybe it’s time to give the cock pump a try after all.

PROS: Affordable, easy to operate, accommodates most men

CONS: A little uncomfortable

Vibrating Penis Pump

Mixing pleasure with pumping

This is a bit of an unusual addition, but this penis pump actually features a waterproof vibrating bullet which is attached to the outside of the chamber (although it can be removed and used separately). The pump itself uses the bulb or “grenade” style pump, so it’s cheap but you have to know roughly what pressure to pump to as you have no pressure gauge to give you exact measurements.

The addition of a vibration function seems to have caused a lot of disagreement in the penis pumping community, with some finding that the vibrating bullet added nothing for them while others found that it sometimes made them cum inside the chamber! Personally, I found that the vibrations added some nice and pleasurable sensations, but they just made me want to masturbate afterward, which is not usually what I was planning on doing.

Before putting something in your ass, ask yourself “would I be willing the put this in my mouth?”

The insertable length of the chamber is around 7 inches, which is perhaps not ideal if you’re trying to expand your penis beyond that length. Personally, I think that these sorts of pumps should be at least 8 inches in length so that there’s a good amount of leeway for extension while under pressure. However, if you’re up for trying something a little different and quirky, then I would recommend giving this low-priced vibrating penis pump a go and seeing if it does the trick for you.

PROS: Multiple vibration settings, penis growth

CONS: Noisy

Precision Cock Pump

Precise no-frills cock pumping

The thing about trigger handle penis pumps is that they never look very sexy or appealing. You know how sex toys are always designed to look a little sexy, sleek, and shiny? Not these bad boys. They look like they should be sat on a mechanics shelf somewhere in an industrial oil-covered warehouse. Still, perhaps the industrial look is more “macho” and that’s what companies should be branding their penis pumps with anyway? The enigma continues.

This precision pump means that you’ll never run out of pressure, as you can always adjust it within the well-designed system by using the handle. The fact that you can follow the pressure on the gauge is also obviously the main selling point of this pump, so it’s great for more experienced dick pumpers who know the ideal pressure to see those desired penis pump results. The only downside I can think of with this product is that you have to lube it up at the base, but that’s true for many of the products on this list.

Again, I think that this product is more intended for men struggling with ED as opposed to men who are trying to grow their penis, so perhaps keep that in mind before buying it. Although there is noticeable some minor growth which is noticeable with this product, it’s definitely more for older gentlemen who want to get their cock hard and then give it to their partner. There’s nothing wrong with that, obviously, but make sure that you’re buying a pump which is designed for your personal sexual needs.

PROS: Accurate pressure gauge, good results

CONS: Cannot be used with water

Automatic Dick Pump

Easy-to-use automatic suction

This battery-operated electronic dick pump does all the sucking for you, meaning that you just have to hold it in place and let it do all the work for you. The 7-inch chamber is made from a mixture of silicone and skin-safe plastic, and there is even a silicone “donut” around the base which helps to create a strong airtight seal when you’re pumping away.

The pressure itself comes in 3 different settings which you can cycle through with the buttons. Essentially, you can choose from low, medium, or high-pressure settings, progressing up as your penis becomes more comfortable with the sensations. When you’re finished or if you simply start to feel uncomfortable, there is an instant pressure release button which allows air to return to the vacuum immediately, relieving the pressure on your member.

This is another really good erectile dysfunction pump, and the fairly small chamber size of 7 inches suggests that it was designed with this purpose in mind. So, if you need to get an erection fast but your cock isn’t playing ball, feel free to grab one of these “Get Hard” machines and keep your Johnson in check! After quickly applying some pressure to your cock, you should be rock hard and ready to go in no time!

PROS: Simple, foolproof, low-effort

CONS: A little noisy

Best Water Penis Pump

Water pumps are a mainstay in the penis pumping community due to their convenience, decreased strain on the penis, and the ability to use them in your morning shower or bath. If you’re looking for the easiest go-to reliable cock pump, a water pump is probably the way to go.

HydroXtreme7 – this has to be my top pick for the water pumps due to its unmatched results and reputation

Best Air Penis Pump

Air penis pumps come in different forms, such as bulb pumps, electric pumps, and trigger handle pumps, all of which have their own distinct pros and cons to consider. However, when it comes to choosing the best air-based penis pump, I’ve decided to go for the product which will satisfy the majority of users.

Precision Cock Pump –this accurate trigger-handle pump comes with a pressure gauge for safe and accurate pumping.

Best Budget Penis Pump

Getting the best looking penis you can is no easy task, and it can sometimes require you to fork out ungodly sums of money. Luckily, there are plenty of budget penis pumps to choose from which do a brilliant job without costing an arm and a leg (and a cock?)

EDGE Stamina Penis Pump – this simply-designed bulb pump is the ultimate low-cost no-frills penis extender

Best Vacuum Pump for ED

Erectile dysfunction ruins the lives of many older men, but you should not have to be one of them. There are many vacuum pumps on the market which get you hard and allow you to perform better in the bedroom in no time.

Automatic Dick Pump – this electronic pump is easy to slip on, turn on, and go – the blood will be flowing to your cock very quickly

FAQs

Just like with pussy pumps, there’s a lot of uncertainty and misinformation around the use of penile pumps, so here we aim to answer your questions, set the record straight, and dispel any myths or preconceptions that you may have.

What is a penis pump used for?

A penis pump is mainly used for 2 things – increasing your penis size or helping with erectile dysfunction problems. Some people may indeed use them for both of those reasons, but most are using them for 1 reason or the other. A lot of the pumps are actually designed with these specific uses in mind, with smaller penis chambers suggesting that the pump is designed more for ED than for growth, for example.

By using a penis pump regularly, you will be able to increase the length and girth of your penis. However, do bear in mind that this enlargement is only temporary, and if you stop using the pump regularly, then your penis will gradually revert back to its usual size. Penis pumps are great if you use them regularly, otherwise, they may be a waste of time.

Are penis pumps bad for you?

Penis pumps are not bad for you, assuming that you use them safely and don’t overuse them. However, if you do use them too much, there is evidence to suggest that you could reduce the strength of your erections due to tissue damage in the penis.

When using penis pumps, some people may experience mild bruising on the penis in addition to “weaker” cum shots, but these are not considered to be worrying side effects unless they start to cause you pain or other problems.

Do penis pumps feel good?

Generally speaking, penis pumps do not “feel good”, no. Most people say that they feel rather uncomfortable, although it is something that you quickly get used to. Penis pumps should not be used for pleasure – they are designed for medical purposes and temporary penis enlargement.

Hydro vs. Air – which is better?

When most people think of a penis pump, they imagine an air-based chamber which creates a vacuum inside, increasing the size of the penis. Although these air pumps are common, hydro or water pumps have become much more popular in recent years.

Hydro pumps essentially work in the same way as air pumps (creating pressure via a vacuum) but the penis can be surrounded by warm water, helping to increase the comfort of your member while simultaneously harnessing all the benefits. Some of the best-selling penis pumps in the world are made by Bathmate, a UK company specialized in hydro pumps of this nature.

Do they work? Penis Pump Results

In order to attain permanent results in growth, you have to continue using your penis pump regularly. For men who use their pump regularly and safely, there are reported size increases of over 3 inches in length and 30% in girth, but these effects will be short-lived unless the user continues using the pump on a regular basis. 

So yes, penis pumps can make your penis bigger in both length and girth, but only temporarily.

The important thing to remember about penis pumps is that they’re a lifestyle, not a temporary fix.

Nonetheless, we should address the fact that some health professionals disagree with the use of penis pumps and claim that they aren’t effective for growth at all.

"There's very little evidence that these devices cause any significant long-term gain in size. Using a pump for a few minutes a day won't do anything to increase penis size."
Professor Kevan Wylie, Sexual Medicine Consultant

Ultimately, if your penis size is causing you anxiety and getting you down, it’s best to visit your local physician and speak to them about the options available to you.

Where to buy a Penis Pump, and Average Prices

Penis pumps are available in most sex toy shops, although they are not technically a sex “toy” but more of a sex “tool” or “enhancer” if anything. Online stores such as LoveHoney sell a wide variety of penis pumps, in addition to brick-and-mortar stores such as Ann Summers or your local sex shop of choice.

If you know what you’re looking for and you want to take advantage of direct-to-consumer pricing, try visiting the website of the penis pump manufacturer and see whether you can place an order directly to your home from their official website.

Bulb-style pumps tend to be the cheapest in terms of price due to their simple construction, coming in at around $15-$35 depending on where you look. If you want an electronic penis pump, you’re looking at between $35-$70 for most decent models which don’t malfunction and still give great results.

If you want a precise pump which features a trigger handle and an accurate pressure gauge, then you can expect to pay around $40-$90 depending on the design and sturdiness of the pump. Finally, the water-assisted hydropumps start for about $45 and can go all the way up to $300+ if you’re looking to buy a top-of-the-range model from a company like Bathmate.

Don’t feel ashamed! Tackling the Penis Pump stigma

Penis pumps are the kind of thing that get joked about in Austin Powers movies and dodgy comedy sketches, but they’re not something to be ashamed of. There’s a myth that anyone who uses a penis pump for enlargement purposes must have a tiny penis to begin with, but plenty of average-sized men use pumps to give themselves above-average erect penises instead, which is surely nothing to complain about.

Even if you are using a penis pump because your penis is small, so what? At least you’re taking action to resolve something that you don’t like about yourself.At the end of the day, if men were given the opportunity to have a bigger cock, most of them would take it, so why be ashamed? Sadly, changing the look of your cock is not as easy as changing the look of your stomach or muscles, for instance.

For the foreseeable future, penis pumps are one of the only effective ways to increase the size of your cock, even if it just temporary.Miracle pills and lotions are just a waste of your time and money.

These penile pumps are also a brilliant solution for older (or younger) men who struggle with erectile dysfunction, helping them to increase blood flow to the Johnson and keep it erect for sex. Although there are side effects to this, such as reduced ejaculation speed, a penis pump could be the secret to helping men with ED enjoy sexual pleasure once again, and thereain’tnothing wrong with that.

I hope you enjoyed this guide to the best penis pumps on the market. Remember to stay safe and always follow the instructions – you don’t want a cock like spaghetti!

I aim to smash down stigmas and introduce men and women to sex toys that change their lives.

    I need one

  • Greg says:

    I am new to these toy’s, divorced e years ago and have not been with anyone since. I found a old toy that me and my wife used. I have always been really small, but never had the problem of it falling off because I am so small. No matter how long or hard I try, I can not really get very hard and can never cum. It’s aggravating now because it’s been almost a year since I have been able to. Do you have anything for that small of a penis ?

    You don’t mention dispensing a cock ring, do any of them do that?
