A Handy-Dandy Guide to Penis Pumps: For Men
Part 7 - Penis Pump Reviews
This is a step up from the Telescoping Travel Pump, and might be just the unit for someone who wants to test the waters, so to speak. This will give the novice pumper a real sense of what a pump can do, and he won't have to mortgage the house to purchase one. If the user finds he's not really into pumping after all, he's not out a bunch of dough.
This intermediate priced device has all the familiar features one would expect to find in a serious pump. It has a unique designed finger-operated piston pump mechanism, which attaches to the cylinder by way of a flexible hose. The release valve is easy to find; it's located immediately under the piston as it attaches to its end of the hose.
The cylinder is made of decent grade of plastic and has a rubbery donut insert at the base.
What I like about this pump:
- I liked the rubbery donut, which helped create an airtight seal. It had more give to it than the Telescoping Travel Pump insert, but it wasn't as long.
- I really liked the way the device disassembles for easy cleaning.
- I thought the unique finger-operated piston mechanism was interesting. It was easier for me to keep a grip, even with slippery lubed-up hands.
What I didn't like about this pump:
- I didn't think the pump mechanism was sturdy enough to consistently get a good vacuum going.
- The hose-to-cylinder connection is pretty cheesy. I could see where this would fail after just moderate use. Here too, if lube gets on that connection it will just slip and disconnect. Again, I had to make sure I kept that area lube free.
- This is not built to last. It's more of a true pump than the one above, but it's still more of a novelty than a serious pumping system. It is, however, modestly priced.
