Do budget extenders exist or are they a waste of money?

Just looking to buy an extender, I'm thinking of the X4 deluxe edition. Was just curious if there's anything cheaper that's as good. Just making sure I don't waste any money for a meaningless brand name.

Thanks.

Instead of focusing on the cost, focus on the comfort level of the device instead. If it's uncomfortable or causes injury, you won't wear it enough to gain. Read ALL reviews available here & online from actual users. You can't trust EVERYTHING you read on the I-net, but you can get a decent idea of what users think of the device. Do your own research to make a decision!

You can make a simple sock hanger for about $2 with stuff you probably have at home. It's not an extender, it's a hanger, but many have gained a longer Dick using it, here in the Gym.

I hadn't heard of a sock hanger before, I'm definitely gonna give that a try. Strangely enough I have 2 spare shoe laces laying around. Thanks for that!

Also I'm wondering, it seems like hanging would have the same effect of straightening the penis, since mine is a bit more curved than I'd like. Does hanging have a similar effect? Of course hanging tends to be shorter and not as prolonged as extending, so I was curious about that.

You're welcome! Oh, and having those shoe laces just lying around might be a coincidence...or MAYBE NOT? Socks & shoe laces can be used in different ways than what's normally obvious, eh? While "these boots are made for walkin...'" the laces can be used for "hangin'"!

Just don't start with too much weight. Most begin with around 3-5# with a healthy young Dick...less if you're unconditioned or outta shape. Try for 20 minutes of "hang-time" the first few days or a week, then add sessions of 20 minutes up to 3 X/day. Extend the length of each session & the weights slowly, after you've comfortably done 20 minutes X 3 / day for safety, as your Dong becomes accustomed to being stretched daily.

Depending upon how and where your curve occurs on your shaft, hanging will be more or less as effective as an extender, IMO. Manual Jelqs can also be added to hanging in the opposite direction of your curve, if you.re concerned about making your penis str8er. If you have an extremely high erection (TUG) at like 11 or 12 o'clock, hanging will also lower your erection angle over time by stretching your ligs & inner penis to become more exposed when flaccid, so be aware of that.

I got extender for 15$ - "quick extender syestem pro" or something like that.I think it`s pretty much the same as andro,SG,4x labs etc.
There is also another one "miracle slider extender 40$ from Ebay".This are the two cheapest I can think of.In the case with the second one (40$ one)-it`s not only cheaper,but even better design compared to 4x.

Buy cheaper extender... or just wait to get a little more money and buy PF or LG hanger.

Haha, it was meant to be. I've found a jar that's 1.6 pounds, will try a 4 pint milk bottle later on I think. I've done clamping and jelqing and all sorts for the past few months properly so I think I'm fairly conditioned. Manual stretches to. I just wanted something I could do without watching porn or doing manual things honestly, feels like a waste when I can do it in a way that doesn't require my attention. Thanks for the advice, I'll try it for a few weeks and see how it goes, I would hopefully see at least a lower post workout hang after that point! Aside from the gym and work I'm always at home, so I've got plenty of time to do it.

I used a cable clamp (sometimes two) to hold the sock firmly to my shaft. I am cut and placed the clamp(s) about 1.5 inches above the glans such that when the weight was applies, the clamps forced my foreskin into forming a nice cushion between the clamp and the glans.

Vacextender offers a good extender (KR) for about $130. It operates on a vacuum type head piece.

I recommend ONLY super cheap extenders. Toss out whatever gripping contrivance they include and instead grip your penis with a VLC Hanger and hook the VLC Hanger to the extender's yoke with an SGX Clip.

To work on changing a curvature you can use a PYS velcro strap to lash your mid shaft to one or the other side rail of the extender, or run the strap from one side rail to the other and route shaft above or below the strap.
