Prefer Air Pump versus Bathmate

**sdaddy** · 07-29-2011

I just received my Bathmate today. I must say that I expected to feel more pressure in the inner penis. Also, the suction wasn't that great, initially. After shaving my pubic hairs, the suction was slightly better.

Air pumps can create tremendous pressure. It's not necessarily a good idea to pump to those pressures, but I certainly think they have the advantage over the Bathmate in that respect. To improve Bathmate suction, consider getting harder before you enter the pump to fill more of the cylinder and try using it in the bath and keeping the base of the cylinder submerged for the first few pumps.

I stand a bit corrected. The bathmate is perfect when it is submerged fully while taking a bath. For 20 minutes, I just did a routine of slight pump and slight pull. Afterwards, my member was limp and spent. The bathmate is mediocre when taking a shower.

guess that's why it's not called the showermate ha

Not quite. It's about proper suction. I use my Bathmate in the shower, in the bathtub, and also outside of the bath. Getting a proper seal is the key. Either way is just as effective as the other.
