Penis pumps, I have always thought of them as some novelty item or prank gift to give to a friend. Recently a friend confided in me about his experience with a Bathmate penis pump. I thought he was pulling my leg. He claimed the water pressure worked wonders on his penis and improved his sex life. I later looked the company up online, and it turned out he may not have been joking at all. The more I read, the more my interest grew. Before I knew it, I had a variety of them arriving at my doorstep. In this review, you’ll see my journey of transforming my dong into a schlong with the help of Bathmate’s products.
The Hydro7 is for penises that are 5-7 inches long. It’s a great entry-level or budget-friendly hydro pump for men of that size. Since it has a lower amount of suction, it’s great for guys that are overly sensitive down there. Use discount code MSTG15 for 15% off!
The HydroMax is excellent for anyone with experience with pumping. It’s suited for any man up to eleven inches in length, as it comes in various sizes. If you are sincerely interested in your penile health, HydroMax is better than Hydro7 due to its power.
The HydroXtreme is for any penis owner that wants to transform the strength and size of their erections in the shortest amount of time. All Bathmate Pumps will increase the blood flow to your penis, but the HydroXtreme will have the most significant effect in doing so.

What Is A Bathmate Pump?
Bathmate Penis Pumps are penis pumps that take a unique approach to penis pumping. These male sex toys utilize the power of water pressure as opposed to most common air pressure. The primary benefit of using water pressure is that it creates a uniform pressure distribution throughout the chamber. The uniform pressure leads to an even distribution of blood throughout the penile tissue. In turn, it creates significant gains faster than air pumps with less bruising. Ultimately using a Bathmate water pump will contribute to a healthier, firmer, thicker, and even longer penis.
How does a Bathmate Pump work?
Bathmate Pumps work by creating a pressure chamber around your penis through the removal of the surrounding water. The vacuum effect triggers increased blood flow from your body into your cock, resulting in a supremely satisfying erection you can be proud of.
Long-term use of one can profoundly affect your penile health and even increase its size. Pumping your cock creates a radical increase in the flow of blood to your penis. Putting as much blood as possible into your penis will stretch your blood vessels and erectile tissues, giving you robust erections like never before.
Regularly using a Bathmate Hydro Pump aids in opening passageways so you can achieve the erections you desire without pumping. That’s not all; many users experience an increase in both girth and length, known as gains.
How Do I Choose The Right Model?
While it can seem overwhelming trying to figure out which Bathmate pump is right for you, it doesn’t have to be if you break down the steps.
Size
The most important factor in choosing a Bathmate Penis Pump is determining what size you need.
Bathmate truly caters to the needs of each penis, which is why they produce almost all of their pumps in a shocking amount of size. The beauty of the varying sizes means that every penis can take full advantage of the benefits regardless of its length. A better-fitting model will produce larger gains. On top of that, you will not pay for materials you don’t need. The larger the pump, the higher the price tag.
To determine what size you need, you must measure your penis. Grab a ruler or a tape measure and measure your dick in inches as I demonstrate on a dildo in the image above. If you have a particularly girthy member, you may need to measure the girth as well. The brand produces extra-wide pumps for those in need.
The size of Bathmate Hydro Pumps changes at two-inch intervals creating a custom fit with plenty of room to grow. In general, you should allow for two inches of penis growth in whatever model you choose. Therefore, if you are five inches erect, you would want a 7-inch pump, or nine inches an eleven-inch pump, and so on. The numbers on the pump indicate the maximum size they can accommodate. If you seek more information, check out the Bathmate sizing chart here.
Why do you need the pump?
People use Bathmate’s Water-Based Penis Pumps for a wide variety of reasons. Some people may want to increase their penis size and firmness. In this case, the HydroXtreme would be the best for them due to its insane sucking power. Others may want them as a preventative against erectile dysfunction. Any of the Bathmate Pumps are an effective way to combat E.D. by improving penile blood circulation. However, we recommend either HydroMax or HydroXtreme as their high-pressure levels will create higher blood flow to your penis and improve your penile health the most.
If E.D. is something you deal with, combine the HydroMax or the HydroXtreme with one of Bathmate’s Power Ring cock rings. Using a cock ring after pumping will trap the blood inside your penis so your erection will not fade. Some men may be looking for a confidence boost in the bedroom. The Hydro7 may be all they need.
The Hydro7 has the weakest amount of pressure, but don’t worry, it will still draw plenty of blood into your penis, giving you the erection you desire. It, too, will improve penile health, but there is a limit to its pressure, thus limiting its ability to stretch tissues and blood vessels.
Budget
Unfortunately, while shopping, we all need to consider our budget. Still, when buying something you will use for many years to come, it is best not to cheap out on your first purchase and be forced to upgrade later. Consider what you hope to achieve with your Bathmate Pump, and let that guide your decision.
With the Bathmate pumps, you truly get what you pay for– more suction. The most affordable is the Hydro7 (image above), which has the least suction. However, it is still a very effective pump and is supreme in suction compared to air models. The Hydro7 only comes in one size, seven inches.
On the opposite end of the spectrum in both price tag and suction power is HydroXtreme. If you have the money, HydroXtreme is worth every penny for its ability to make the most dramatic gains. Right in the middle fits HydroMax, an excellent option for beginners and experienced pumpers alike.
It is worth mentioning that every product comes with a two-year warranty. However, if you are still nervous about investing so much money into a Bathmate Pump, extended warranties are available on their website, including seven-year and lifetime warranties, thus indicating that the products are built to last.
Partner Friendly
Having your partner operate a penis pump on you is a unique experience that can open up all new worlds of role-play. By far, the easiest one for another person to control is the HydroXtreme, thanks to its handball pump. The other Bathmate models are pumped by compressing them into the body. While your partner can do this, it can be trickier for another person to operate.
Versatility
The HydroXtreme is the most versatile, not just for its ease of couples’ play, but for its ability to be bedroom-friendly. The HydroXtreme is the only model that can be operated with air instead of water, meaning you can use it while lying in bed or wherever you fancy it. That is worth considering if you live in a place with water shortages or you can not foresee yourself taking twenty-minute-plus showers every day.
My Bathmate Reviews
I have to say, testing Bathmate’s range of pumps was the most fun I have ever had while conducting a science experiment. My wife and I got really into it; she had as much fun as I did using it to see how hard I could get and basking in the fruits of our labor with her legs wide open.
To keep it as close to a scientific method as possible, I used each model routinely for two months, taking a ten-day break between changing pumps. The reason for the break was to allow my gains to fade and get a more accurate understanding of each pump’s effects.
Bathmate Hydro7
The Hydro is Bathmate’s entry-level penis pump. Unfortunately, it only comes in one size, seven inches, and has the weakest amount of suction. Since it is their entry-level model, I figured this would be the best place to start my test and ease into the tepid waters of hydro penis pumps.
Hydro7 Review
The first thing I noticed while using the Bathmate Hydro7, which I mentioned in my full Hydro7 review, was how much more inviting it felt compared to a conventional air pump. The warm water inside of the chamber was undoubtedly inviting, but it was the way the pressure felt around my penis that was truly pleasant. It felt as though some suction-mouthed creature from another dimension was sucking off my entire penis.
There was a slight learning curve to using the pump, mainly how to create a strong seal. Once the seal was made, it was easy enough to pump away. My partner loved watching my penis grow in the chamber and would make a point to jump in the shower with me and lend a helping hand. The suction of the Hydro7 never got to the point of pain or discomfort, but we did follow the instructions and made sure not to over-pump.
Short-term Results
There was no ignoring of the short-term gains created by Hydro7. After the first pump, my penis was harder, girthier, and longer than any normal erection. I felt like I could storm a castle and use my cock as a ramming log to break down their doors or drawbridge.
These robust erections were not only harder but longer lasting. My stamina also improved marginally, allowing me to pleasure my wife more than usual. By the end of the first week, my girth had increased by 0.2 inches and my length by 0.15. It is worth noting that every pump yields a slightly different result.
Long-term Result
The long-term results of Hydro7 were the most impressive. By the end of the four weeks, I was popping rock-hard boners like they were going out of style. I could get hard at a moment’s notice, much like when I used it for the first time. When I did pump myself, my erections were even more prolific.
At the end of the month, my girth had increased by 0.32 inches and the length by 0.35 inches. Even flaccid, my penis length increased by 0.2 inches. I felt so good about my cock that I wished I could show it off to everybody. If there were a boner-having contest, I surely would have entered.
Who is it for?
The Hydro7 is specifically made for penises that are 5-7 inches long. It is a great entry-level or budget-friendly hydro pump for any man of that size. Since it has a lower amount of suction, it is great for any man who is overly sensitive down there. The Hydro7 is an excellent way to boost your confidence, combat E.D., and improve penile health.

Bathmate HydroMax
Let’s continue my Bathmate penis pump review with HydroMax which is the brand’s mid-level model. It is a fantastic choice for beginners and experienced pumpers alike. It comes in a wide variety of sizes from three to nine inches and is operated by pushing it against your pelvis. Hydromax is also our highest-rated penis pump, you can check the complete penis pump test and review here.
HydroMax Review
After my ten-day hiatus from pumping my dick, my gains were fading, but my ability to pop a stiffy I was proud of remained. Operating the HydroMax was almost the same as the Hydro7, compressing the bellows against your body to pump. Immediately I noticed the difference in power. The rubber bellows at the base are much firmer, creating a more powerful vacuum chamber. Still, it was comfortable against the body.
It took a few sessions for me to get used to the new suction levels, but before I knew it, I was directing my partner to give me an extra pump or two. The new sucking power of the HydroMax felt like I had a new erection quality to match. After the first pump, my partner took me in her mouth and commented on how much larger I felt. Find out all the perks this bad boy can offer in its full review right here.
Short-term Results
Just like the Hydro7, the HydroMax immediately gave my erections an extra bang for the buck. The most significant difference between the two was there were times I could feel the pulse of my penis throbbing as it was ever-expanding with blood, a sensation I hadn’t felt since my youth.
Here is the real shocker, after my first week, my girth had exceeded one month of using the Hydro7. I had expanded by a whole 0.4 inches. A big part of this increased size was probably due to having already expanded by blood vessels and erectile tissue with the Hydro7. The erect length of my penis stayed more or less the same after a month of pumping with the Hydro7.
Long-term Results
I have always been a bit of a cocky individual, but my confidence was at a whole new level after using Bathmate Pumps for two months. I felt like I discovered a new hidden talent of getting hard on command; it was great. At the end of the four weeks, my girth had increased by a total of 0.5 inches and length by 0.38. Not bad for just eight weeks of penis pumping. My partner certainly did not want me to stop.
Who is it for?
The HydroMax is an excellent choice for anyone with experience with pumping. You will appreciate the extra power that it has. The Hydromax is suited for any man up to eleven inches in length, as it comes in various sizes. If you are sincerely interested in your penis health, the HydroMax may be a better option than the Hydro7 due to its power. It will allow you to grow with your pump and gradually increase the pressure.

Bathmate HydroXtreme
last in my review is HydroXtreme which is the company’s most powerful hydro pump. It comes in the widest range of sizes with extra wide fits and even accommodates truly massive penises measuring eleven to thirteen inches. It is operated by a hand-ball pump for maximum pumping pressure and can even be used as an air pump.
HydroXtreme Review
Applying the HydroXtreme to your penis and creating a suction can be a little more complicated than its predecessors. There are more pieces to operate, and I found the use of the Bathmate Shower Strap to be extremely helpful by freeing up my hands and taking the weight of the pump.
Once you figure out your own application method, it is easier to pump than the other models, thanks to its hand-ball pump which you can see in the image below. You have more control of pressure changes and apply more pressure as well. It is especially good if you have a partner who wants to be involved in the pumping experience, as it is more user-friendly.
My partner really got into some kinky role-playing with the HydroXtreme treating me as her sub, controlling the pressure levels and my erections. The pressure created by HydroXtreme is remarkable; users must be cautious not to over-pump. If you ever want to feel like you have Superman’s penis attached to your body, this is the pump for you. You can read more about the details in our Bathmate HydroXtreme review here.
It is worth noting that there is a limit to how much your penis will grow while using a penis pump. You are not able to generate more penis or erectile tissue but only expand upon what you have. Therefore everyone will reach a limit to their gains. I had already been pumping for eight weeks, so I was shocked to make more gains.
Short-term Results
At this point in my trial, I have no problems getting hard and staying hard. My stamina has improved even without prior pumping. The HydroXtreme did surprise me with its suction as it felt as though my soul was being sucked into my dick for the world to see. The most significant difference from the HydroXtreme compared to the rest was that it could give me pulsating erections with the right amount of pressure applied. I do not recommend that being your goal with every pumping session as you can damage your penis, such as bursting blood vessels and so forth.
The HydroXtreme gave me the best immediate results, with the mightiest erections I had experienced in years. If you really want to wow your partner, use the HydroXtreme. After one week of pumping, my gains increased by 0.1 inches or less. But remember, I have already been pumping for nine weeks, and your penis can only grow so much. In total, my penis has increased by 0.55 inches in girth and 0.42 inches in length, and I could not be happier with that penis enhancement.
Long-term Results
By the end of the month, I felt as though I no longer had to rely on the HydroXtreme to produce such magnanimous erections. I was getting harder and larger than I had ever been in my life without any extra stimulators or even touching myself. I felt like a rockstar in sporting wood.
Surprisingly, my size continued to increase even after so many weeks of pumping. My length had increased by a grand total of 0.55 inches and girth by 0.6 inches. I doubt that the other models would have had the power to create such prolific gains. If only I had known about the HydroXtreme sooner, I would have been an absolute stallion in my youth.
Who is it For?
The HydroXtreme is for penis owners that want to transform the strength and size of their erections. Anyone with experience with penis pumps will be delighted by the power of HydroXtreme. All Bathmate Pumps will increase the blood flow to your penis, but the HydroXtreme will have the most significant effect in doing so. It is excellent for any penis owner who lacks confidence in the bedroom, as it can add some size to what you have and will definitely make you harder than ever before. It is also an effective way to fight E.D., improve stamina, and give you a healthy penis you can be proud of.

How to use a Bathmate Pump?
Using a Bathmate pump can be tricky the first couple of times, but once you get the hang of it, it’s as simple as can be. Always wash your pump before using it, even if it is new. You don’t want to dirty up your wang before you get to play with it. Shaving or at least trimming your pubic hair will lead to better results, as you will be able to create a better seal with the pump. Not only that, but it will prevent any hairs from being pulled and will help your soon-to-be mighty erection stand out even more.
- Check the instructions that came with your Bathmate Pumps. Each model is operated differently. This is just a general guide.
- Use the warm shower or bath water to warm up your genitals so that your testicles descend away from your body. You do not want to accidentally vacuum them into the pumping chamber, or your fun will end before it starts.
- Fill your device with warm water. Some Bathmate Pumps may require you to close release valves to trap the water.
- Insert your penis into the chamber letting it rest on your pubic bone skin. The first few times using one, it’s best not to have a totally erect penis (try to have a flaccid penis) as it can put too much pressure on your erectile tissue that you are not yet ready for. For once it’s good not to have an erection while doing something sexual. You can also use a bit of water-based lube for extra comfort.
- Compress the bellows into your pelvis with your penis completely submerged in the chamber to create a seal against your body.
- Once again, depending on your model, you may need to adjust the valves to allow water to escape or attach a hand pump.
- Begin to pump your penis, and take it very easy at first; we can not stress this enough. You don’t want your penis to look like a hot dog that spent too much time in the microwave.
- Each model has a different indicator to let you know when you have reached optimal pressure. Check your user manual.
- Once optimal pressure has been achieved, you can leave your penis inside the vacuum chamber for 2-5 minutes at a time.
- For the best results, repeat this process twice more. The total recommended time to keep your penis inside the vacuum chamber is 15 minutes per day, broken up into 5-minute sessions with a 2-3 minute break between.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Is the Bathmate pump safe to use?
Yes, a Bathmate Pump is safe if you follow the instructions. Only pump for up to 15 minutes per session; do not over-pump and take breaks during your pumping session. If you feel discomfort or pain immediately release the pressure and remove the pump.
Will a Bathmate Hydro Pump make my penis longer?
Yes, a Bathmate Hydro Pump can make your penis longer and improve sexual performance. Every penis will have different effects from pumping, but increased length is a common phenomenon. Long-term gains in penis length will often fade with time once you stop regularly pumping.
Where to buy a Bathmate Pump?
The preferred place to buy a Bathmate Hydro Pump is either on their website or from another reputable online retailer, such as lovehoney.com. Buying yours from a trusted retailer will ensure that any issues you might have with your order or product will be dealt with promptly and professionally.
How to make your own Bathmate pump?
After scouring the internet to learn how to make your own Bathmate Pump, I concluded that I would happily pay money not to have them used on me. I love experimenting with my dick, but there is a limit to everything. The worst involved plastic sports drink bottles and the best rubber super-glued to a plastic cylinder. I was hoping to find one that involved a hollowed-out watermelon, but I was not that lucky. We generally don’t recommend doing it on your own, but there are some semi-safe ideas perhaps you could try on our homemade penis pump guide.
How often can I use a Bathmate pump?
You can use a Bathmate pump once per day keeping your penis inside of the vacuum chamber for a maximum of fifteen minutes. You can check our guide on how to get permanent gains from penis pumps here.
How long can I use a Bathmate pump?
You can use your Bathmate Pump for a maximum of fifteen minutes per day. That equates to three five-minute pumping reps.
How much does a Bathmate Pump cost?
A Bathmate pump can cost anywhere from $119.99 – $349.99, depending on the model and size. The HydroXtreme is the most expensive in their line and the Hydro7 is the cheapest.
What Bathmate accessories are available for a Bathmate Hydro Pump?
There are a dizzying amount of accessories available for every device. The most useful of these is the Bathmate Shower Strap which will take the weight of the pump freeing up your hands for other things during your penis enlargement sessions. You can buy the Bathmate Shower Strap here.
The Bathmate Cleaning Kit is another popular one, as it comes with custom-fitted brushes and scrubs to clean all the nooks and crannies of your Hydro Pump. You can buy the cleaning kit on their website using the link.
Perhaps the most overlooked yet effective accessory to get the most out of your Hydro Pump is their Power Ring cock rings. These stretchy cock rings will keep your mighty erection standing tall and veiny for longer by keeping the blood inside of your penis when you have finished pumping. If you want to show off everything you have, put a ring on it. We have a guide for cock rings too.
For those seeking to maximize their gains, it is worth considering the Bathmate HydroVibe. The HydroVibe is a vibrating ring you can attach to the bellows of any Bathmate Pump except for the HydroXtreme11. The vibrations of the HydroVibe allow for greater blood flow during your pumping workout.
