4 Best Penis Head Pumps

Why I Chose It

While our search for penis head pumps did not return a bevy of results, we did see this one pop up a few times, so we knew we had to review it. Our tester Caleb gave it a shot, and had a mixed experience. He praised the overall quality and looks of the toy, writing that it “feels solid in the hand with no flexing or unwanted movement” and it “looks good aesthetically… it is a pretty minimalistic design which I can appreciate“. However, he did note that there are some hard to reach areas that make cleaning more difficult, so you’ll definitely have to get in there with a clean cloth and wipe it down thoroughly.

Once he turned it on, he also found that “the suction function is quite powerful and that alone can be fun“. However, the vibrations fell short of expectations, since they made the whole unit vibrate and had mostly dissipated before he got to feel them. After experimenting with the different automated modes, he found that “manually releasing the suction at the desired level provided better results“, which is very easy thanks to the pump’s quick release valve button. So, if you’re looking for strong suction on your tip to increase sensitivity and aren’t really bothered about extra vibrations, the Get Hard Pump set could still be a worthwhile buy! Plus, Caleb found that the “sound is very minimal“, which is rare in the world of penis pumps and gives it a huge advantage over other options.

Affordability is a huge factor in sex toy purchases, I know, and that’s why I had to include the Suck N Stroke penis head pump from Fetish Fantasy. It’s a fraction of the price of other head pumps, and provided a surprisingly similar experience to the others we’ve tested! Our tester A.J. gave us some pros and cons that he found after trying it out.

The Suck N Stroke is a very simple device, with a clear plastic chamber, a rubber tube to create a seal, and then a tube with a hand pump on the end. A.J. had a bit of trouble putting it together in the beginning, but found that “after getting over the learning curve, assembly got easier and use was a breeze“. He then went on to say that “if the seal kept tight the sensations were excellent and overall great for edging“, though he did wish that the hand pump could provide more pressure control.

The trouble, however, came soon after. The edges of the plastic chamber were quite sharp, and although A.J.’s skin was protected by the rubber seal, the edges started to rip the rubber after a short while, leaving the pump unusable since it couldn’t maintain a vacuum. For this reason, I wouldn’t recommend this product to those looking for a long-lasting, high-quality pump. However, if you’ve never tried pumping before and just want to see if the feeling is something you enjoy, you could try out this budget-friendly kit before moving onto something more powerful and reliable.

The PDX Elite Tip Teazer just didn’t click so well with our tester Peter. You might notice that it’s very similar in design to the Get Hard Pump Set from CalExotics, but seemed to function less well. So, why have I included this option in our round-up of the best penis head pumps? The answer is: in order to show you that not every toy can be a winner, especially when it comes to penis head pumps.

Peter described how “it feels very cheap and is made from a basic plastic, with, what I can only say was glue marks where the toy had been stuck together“. While this didn’t affect the functionality of the Tip Teazer, it still made the toy much less appealing to use. However, once he tried it out Peter also found himself “greeted with the sound of a hammer drill going off“. Not exactly what you want from a self-pleasure session!

As he tried to use it, the suction was powerful, which is a plus, but he couldn’t get comfortable with the small pump. This is definitely something to keep in mind with penis head pumps — even if you’ve tried a regular penis pump before, the smaller chamber of a penis head pump can take some getting used to, and may not have the same roomy fit that you enjoy.

After showing you all of these pumps that fell short of expectations, I have to provide with some high-quality, actually-good alternatives! When it comes to penis pumps, none have surpassed the Bathmate HydroXtreme 7 in Bedbible’s rankings.

Our tester Kevin has tried a few different Bathmate pumps, but thought this one was a real upgrade. He really put it through its paces: “Like the other models, I tried this without any water initially. Unsurprisingly, having a hand pump is a huge advantage, and the pump was easily able to stay in place. This setup still isn’t optimal, but it will definitely work so long as you have a bit of lube on hand… Adding water really made the suction power come out. Actually, this was the first pump where I didn’t pump it all the way up!“. Since you can use the HydroXtreme with and without water, and with or without the hand pump, it’s one of the most versatile pumps out there. I think it’s perfect for those who like to experiment with their set-up and try out new way to play.

Of course, all the extras also mean that it’s a little more complex than your average pump. However, it’s still beginner-friendly with a small amount of practice, as Kevin mentions: “This pump is a tiny bit more complicated than the other models… . Still, I was able to pick it up fairly quickly once I’d done it a few times“.  Plus, the fact that you can adjust it in very small increments makes it approachable for all experience levels, increasing both size and sensitivity all over the penis.
