Penomet Pump Reviews

Poor customer service

I had some questions about the product and problem ordering online.

You might as well be talking to the wall. I have left messages for seven days... no one returned response. Try calling... it is always the same message... no one is available to speak to.

I just wonder if this product is legit?

Response: It’s very legit Erland; they’ve updated their telephone support during 2018, that said their online support team has a much better level of knowledge so I’d suggest contacting them via their support portal if you need some help (they are generally pretty quick to respond).

Penomet can’t be trusted. Look elsewhere.

I was not sure about buying a Penis Pump from them. Their website said they’re in Iceland or something. So I contacted them, and they said if anything goes wrong, it doesn’t work, etc., then they’ll give me a full refund.

I had it in writing, so it was enough for me to buy one. After all, they literally told me that they offer a “60-day full money back guarantee” and at the time I thought it was totally awesome and just what I wanted to hear.

It took ages to arrive and when it finally did... It didn’t work, at least not for me. I contacted them and asked them for help, but they were not very helpful, they were not interested. So I asked for my refund, and they told me that in their terms you could only get a full refund if it’s broken or if you buy one of the premium pumps that is twice as expensive.

They never said that to me when I asked, and now they just don’t answer my emails at all. I’m now trying to get my money back from the company that manages their payments, and they look like they’re going to give my money back - but watch out for these cowboys.

They caught me in a trick, I probably should have checked the terms - but who checks the terms? And anyway I’m pretty sure they would have scammed me too if I bought the more expensive one... Cowboys...

Response: Hi Tim – the 60-day guarantee covers any return on the Standard, Extra or Premium package, it’s not limited to the Premium package or if the device is broken. It sounds like you’ve ordered from a 3rd party website (there are a couple of resellers and knock off fake versions on the likes of eBay etc.) so it sounds like you’ve simply not purchase perhaps from the official Penomet website.

The Official Penomet team have checked their records and they have no record of a “Tim Otej” so either this is a fake review or you’ve not purchased from the official Penomet website it seems.

1 month, no results

I switched to device exercises after a couple of months of doing manual stretches and jelqing. Here is the complete routine I've been following for the past month: I do manual exercises every day for 20 minutes, then I pump with Penomet for 30 minutes (2 sessions of 15 minutes each), and then I put on a cock ring for several hours to prevent turtling. When I measured my size yesterday, there were no results at all for both my erect and flaccid lengths. Anyone have an idea why I didn't gain anything following an extensive routine?! And what is the expected time to see results for pumps?

Response: You should start seeing temporary results within a couple of weeks, and then over the coming 3+ months you’ll start to see those gradual, permanent gains. Have you tried reaching out to Penomet directly via their support portal – they know what they are talking about and I’m sure they could help!

Replaced Bathmate - Big Mistake

I outgrew my old Hercules that I owned for almost 3 years now and thought Penomet will give comparable results going forward since it is a bigger pump. This was a terrible mistake. As an intermediate PE user, I can tell you that Penomet does not live up to even a half the quality that Bathmate offers.

-First of all, the gaiters are weaker. Achieving the same pressure with removable gaiters is impossible. The rubber has to be fixed in place. Big design limitation by the manufacturers.
-The water release valve is faulty. Bad design that will not last long. This is why the Penomet warranty only covers gaiters and not the pump.
-Hard to get immediate suction. Unlike with my Hercules, Penomet Gaiters do not immediately "stick" to my body.

And finally, the price. It is more expensive than Bathmate?! A bad play by them to be selling a lower quality product for more money. Just get a Bathmate pump (any one of the newer X models) and you will not regret it.

Not seeing results I expected

I have been using the Penomet for the past four months, and I can barely see any results and differences in my penis size. I am alternating gaiters as indicated in the guide since I began. I use it both standing in the shower and while laying down in the bathtub, always completely filled with water.

I have gone through all side-effects in the first month. Those include fluid retention, turkey neck, red spots, and donut effect. All of them went away except the red spots. I still get very few of them, and they are tiny.

To be honest, I only get large penis for about 2 minutes after use, and then it goes back its standard size. I keep reading about results that will last for several days, and that the duration of gains keeps increasing over time, but I do not see this.

Maybe I am too impatient after only four months of use? Another observation I had is that are days in which my penis expands more than others.

My primary goal is to gain a bigger non-erect penis length and girth. I hope I will eventually get there.

Great suction!

I can't say anything about the BM products but I can say about the Penomet is holy sh!t can this pump suck!!!
I ordered the Premium package last Thursday & it arrived Tuesday, pretty quick shipping to Canada. It came with the new 3.0 gaitors and the new comfort strap.
The weaker gaiters I'll never use, but the black, gray, and red have awesome power... Red is insanely strong. I used it twice, and at the maximum pressure I can only keep it on for 7 minutes at a time. Gray, I can wear all day. Black is good just for warming up.

Response: Hi Mitch – that’s great news. What we would advise is that you do alternate even between the weaker gaiters as it’s a bit like weight lifting… using the strongest gaiter doesn’t automatically equate to the best results.

High quality and easy to use

Everything in this package - pump and accessories - is made of top notch quality. The gaiters. The actual pump. The top head nob to release the water. When I use it, I feel very strong suction even with medium gaiters. I follow the routine though to keep it changing. My size increased by half an inch, and I only used this pump 3 times. Although I have not experienced other products, I highly recommend this purchase.

Response: Nice one Joshua! We’re really impressed with the release valve, it’s soooo easy to use – just remember to release the pressure gradually and slowly (over the course of a few minutes). Seriously take your time to release pressure slowly over a matter of minutes otherwise you could injure yourself.

Happy so far

Penomet is really powerful. I use the maximum pressure gaiter twice a week. The other gaiters I alternate following their guide. I see that my penis is definitely bigger after I use the pump, and especially when I am not erect, I can tell I am better hung. Will keep you posted with updates.

Response: Keep at it Brian – temporary gains will come first, then in time you’ll start to see permanent results. Just don’t overdo it. Slow and steady wins the race 😉

Honest Review

Honestly, Penomet gives you an increase temporarily as it sucks more blood into your penis. You will see a bigger penis for a week or 2. Then the size goes back to normal. Nothing permanent. This is not just with Penomet, but with any pump.

Response: Hi Adam, it seems like you've completely misunderstood how a penis pump like Penomet actually works. Using such a device is about dedication and long-term usage - based on your results it sounds like you simply haven't used the device for long enough - 15-20 minutes at a time, 4-5 times a week, for 4-6+ months. Training your penis is very similar to going to the gym to work on your abs! Simply doing it a couple of times a month isn't going to give you any real results - you'll increase blood flow to your penis, and you'll start getting increased erection strength, etc. But in terms of a permanent size increase, you actually need to use the Penomet device seriously over the long term. As long as you follow the recommended exercises, there's really no reason why you won't see results.

Horrible Gaiter System

Penomet is a horrible pump. I just bought it and thought it would be similar to the Bathmate regarding quality. But this is not the case. The gaiters are terrible. They leak water and do not hold the pressure for more than 1 minute. I have to re-pump all the time which is very annoying. The red gaiter does not hold the strength it promised. Just a piece of garbage.
I could have gotten the Hydromax Xtreme for this amount of money. I hope I can get a refund.

Upgrade from Hercules

I got the Penomet a month ago. Before that, I had the Bathmate Hercules for 2 years. The past couple of months the gaiter of my Bathmate was digging in hard and leaving marks. The Penomet is made for a much bigger girth of at least 7 inches. It is also longer than the Hercules. The valves system to release the water on the Penomet looks less stable (cheap plastic) when compared to the Hercules, but the gaiters of different strength are great. Despite that, I love the Penomet pump and would still give it four stars.

Response: We’re of two minds where the release valve is concerned Warren, the Bathmate version does feel a little more solid BUT it’s so fiddly to use – the fact that you can release pressure from the Penomet so easily (pushing the release pin in any direction) just makes it so much easier and (in our view) safer to use.

Great pump for smaller penis too

I was a little bit worried that the Penomet will be too big for my penis (it is only 5 inches), but it turned out as the perfect choice for me. I wanted to buy a long term product that I will not outgrow, so I was not interested in the smaller pumps.
The pump creates great suction and holds the pressure very well. It is a little heavy since it is pretty big, but as long as I am holding it, everything is fine. The Red gaiter is sooo powerful I love it.

Response: Make sure you make full use of the comfort strap – that really takes the weight off… at the end of the device, water is heavier than air so although the Penomet device is actually quite light, if you’re using it in the shower for 15-20 minutes, with the combined weight of the water it can get a little heavy.

No pressure unless...

I don't know about other pumps, but you have to trim your pubes right before use. Once they grow, even a little bit, the pressure is significantly less. Weak gaiters still work though since they do not require great suction.

Response: Hey McJuggles – you don’t have to trim your pubic hair however it can aid the ability to get that suction created. Have you tried a little Vaseline as this can also help to ensure a good suction seal between the base of your skin and the gaiter. Don’t forget your cock will also look a little bigger when you have less hair, so it’s a win, win 😉

Beginner First Time Use

I am new to penis enlargement and just tried the Penomet for the first time. I was very surprised at how I did not have to trim my pubes to get a good suction. It is amazing how the rubber is able to create the vacuum.
It was a bit awkward to use the pump at first (can't compare it to the Bathmate as I have never used it or any other penis device) but after a few minutes I got used to it. When After the pump, I seemed to be hanging a lot longer, and it looked thicker, so that was pretty cool.

Decided to go with this one

After doing a lot of reading online, I decided to order a Penomet. I searched Bathmate vs. Penomet and found this website. I found just as much information as I need to decide. Thanks guys, I will post a new review with results soon as I receive my pump and start using it. I am in the UK, so I don't really know how long it takes to receive it.

Length and Girth Increase

I saw a good increase in my penis length and girth after using it daily for 10 days. Then it slowed down and did not see much improvement. But the results stick.

So far so good

Used it for 3 days now (once each day), and I feel a lot better. I was scared at first it would not be right for me, but I can see slight results already when I am getting an erection.

Doesn't look good

I can't say much about the Penomet as I have not purchased one and I don't plan on it. There is no packaging, no background, no manual. And it is a bit too pricey. However, I read some good things about it. I might buy one when I outgrow my Bathmate. I can say BM is always taking their time coming up with new features and versions. Penomet needs to do a lot more to catch up with them. What they are doing now is not enough and doesn't justify the price.

Good Results

I used it several times and can see some improvement. Grew 0.5 inches. Not a lot but I hope I could maintain it.
