My Verdict

If you want a Penis Pump that works great, the BATHMATE HYDROMAX 8 PENIS PUMP is an excellent choice. It's very well made, easy and comfortable to use. I am very impressed with the near immediate results that help me to regain sensitivity as well as harder and longer lasting erections. I'm in my 50's and due to medical issues I was having difficulty performing as I did in my 20's. With just one short week of use, I have the confidence that performance will no longer be a concern in the future. As for enlargement, my wife has already asked me to take it easy.

Personal Experience

My Personal Experiences with Bathmate Hydromax 8

The Hydromax is exactly what I needed. Ready to use right out of the box, no assembly required. I had been on the fence for months about getting a penis pump, and I am so very glad I got the Bathmate Hydromax 8.  As with any new device, I had a slight learning curve with achieving a good seal and figuring out my limits. This is a serious device for serious users and it can achieve more suction than may be comfortable. I highly suggest doing your own research for a proper training routine to acheive the best results. Lube and hair removal were the keys I needed to get the best seal for the best workout. Warning though, overdoing it can result in soreness.

Design

Bathmate Hydromax 8  Design

The Hydromax design looks like what it is designed to do, be a medical device for helping improve erections. I like that it looks like a profesional device and not some weird cheep junk. It is NOT intimidting sitting on the bathroom counter and didn’t give my wife the creeps to move it around while cleaning.

Ease of Use

Bathmate Hydromax 8  Ease of Use

Once I figured it out and got comfortable using it, got over the slight learning curve, it's a breeze to use. Because I use mine in the shower, I do wish I had got the shower strap. When in use, it can get a bit heavy from the water in the chamber and if you are using lube it can get slippery. I can use it one handed, but it's much easier to use both hands.

Quality

Bathmate Hydromax 8  Quality

I give the quality rating top scores. It looks, feels, and operates like I'd expect from a quality device. Most impressive are the availability of replacement parts and or accessories. I use mine a lot and it still works like new, but I just know some day I might wear out a valve or have an accident so it's awesome to know that I can fix it up rather than completely replacing it.

Price

Bathmate Hydromax 8  Price

The Hydromax is not a pricey novelty toy, it is actually a medically approved and doctor recommended device. For me it works very well and I don't have to worry about continued expense and or side effects from pills. I also had major abdominal surgery and the Hydromax 8 has significantly helped me to recover erection functionality from the physical trauma.

Performance

Bathmate Hydromax 8  Performance

The Hydromax performs very well and lives up to the claims. When I get a really good seal to the body, it is very possible to exhert too much suction pressure, but that is easy to mitigate with the easy release valve. No batteries, no recharging, just fill with water and pump up the pressure- easy!

Packaging

Bathmate Hydromax 8  Packaging

Packaging for the Bathmate Hydromax is stylish and professional, it could easily be found at any therapists or doctors office and fit right in. The packaging protected it well enough for delivery through the mail without damage.

Materials and care

Bathmate Hydromax 8  Materials and care

The materials all appear to be non-porous and body safe. Very high quality plastics that are perfect for use in the shower or tub. Of course made for water use makes it easy for cleanup. When done, I usually set mine on the counter to air dry.

I began using Toys as part of a holistic approach to treating physical dysfunctions. Urethral stretching and sounds,  Anal stretching, and now into colon training. My experimentation is a result of finding treatments for things that doctors only wanted to give me prescriptions for or to cut me open. Of course along the way I also realized the orgasmic benefits of Toys, and to this end I’m delving into the pleasure aspects and toy types. I am a life long DIYer and I enjoy hours of research when trying anything new. I was forced to overcome shame to truly begin healing my body and mind. Now I want nothing more than to shout from the rooftops my discoveries and continue to explore. I like teaching others that are of a mind to learn. Likewise it’s so much fun to try and learn new things. Perhaps I’m a bit a masochistic at times, but it’s about feeling physically and emotionally, things that bring relief and pleasure.
