You need to read this review.
Because the bathmate is how I made some pretty amazing permanent girth gains in just over a month.
And using one of these things is also going to be just about the most fun you’ll have in regards to “exercising” your dick to get it grow.
What’s great about the bathmate is being able to pump up your dick for a few minutes and watch it significantly grow in size.
And as far as the permanent results you can expect…well, you’re going to hear and see all about that in this review as well.
So here’s the deal:
Why Trust Me
Most of the reviews out there are from guys who have barely used it, or in many cases never even used this thing at all.
And unlike them, I’ve actually made real permanent gains from mine, and am also just about the only site you’ll find with legitimate before and after pictures to back this up.
What You Should Know
I’ve used a lot of different devices and methods out there…
…and the bottome line is, some work and some don’t.
But when it boils down to it none of them compare to the bathmate when it comes to these three things:
Fun Factor, Safety, and Results
Fun Factor:
I’ve yet to find a device or anything within this entire industry that is more fun to use on a daily basis than the bathmate.
You fill it with water, you pump, you wait about 8-15 minutes, you’re done, and then you gain.
This makes it very fun, easy to use, and easy to stay committed to.
Safety:
The bathmate is safer than almost any other device or exercise out there because it caps you off at a certain max pressure, and there is little to no room for user error.
This is unlike something like jelqing, where you can squeeze too hard or stroke improperly and hurt yourself.
Results:
What’s great about the bathmate is that you can literally pump up your dick for only a few minutes and have your cock significantly bigger in size afterwards.
And you’re also going to see permanent results in both length and girth over the long haul.
What Is It
The bathmate hydro pump is for guys who want to increase the length and girth of their penis in both flaccid and erect size.
And it’s also used to help improve upon general penile health, such as increasing erection quality, sexual stamina, and helping to alleviate erectile dysfunction.
The bathmate was released in 2006 with their first and bestselling model being the hercules, which has sold over 1 million pumps to this day, making it the best selling pump worldwide.
All bathmates use their patented “hydropump” technology. Which basically means that the bathmate uses water to pump up/expand/enlarge your dick rather than the typical air pumps that use air.
Due to the fact that it uses water, it is safer than your standard penis pump, and in a lot of ways more effective.
For example, guys pumping with water tend to point out that their dick gets pumped up “fuller” and more “thorough” than with air pumps.
In addition, they also lead to less fluid buildup, tend to lead to greater overall expansion of the penis, and require no cleanup or lube to use.
There are a few more reasons why we prefer water pumps like bathmate over air pumps, but thats the gist of it.
How Does It Work
All pumps work off creating a vaccuum for your penis so that it can be pressurized, pumped, and expanded.
As previously stated, the bathmate uses water as a means of achieving this.
When you pump with the bathmate it mimics the effects achieved through a natural erection by forcing blood into the corpora cavernosa (erectile tissue that forms the bulk of the penis).
Expansion occurs, and your dick gets bigger.
Through consistent use over time, the process of pumping and expanding is what will ultimately lead to permanent penis growth in both girth and length.
The overall process is like this:
- You pump up your dick.
- Your dick then engorges with blood.
- Penis expansion occurs resulting in subsequent trauma/micro-damage to the penis.
- Following this with rest and recovery, your penis comes back bigger and better than before.
- The constant blood engorging and expanding also trains the corpora cavernosa to constantly take in more blood, resulting in bigger, harder erections and constantly larger flaccid hangs overall.
In some regard, it’s sort of similar to bodybuilding.
The bathmate can even help guys with erection issues because the penis is able to hold onto more blood after using it, which trains these areas to hold onto more blood over the long term (both when flaccid and erect).
I don’t have ED, but I can personally attest to my dick holding more blood and having larger and stronger erections from using the bathmate.
How To Use It?
Using the bathmate is simple.
Here is a video that is about 2 minutes showing the basic use of the pump.
Here is the quick and basic how-to-steps on how it works and what to expect:
Step 1: Fill It With Water
Self explanatory; fill the bathmate with water to the brim.
Step 2: Put Your Dick Inside It
Place your dick inside the device and press it against your pubic pad/body.
It’s advised that you are fully shaven to get a good seal to achieve maximum pressurization.
Step 3: Start Pumping
As you begin pumping you will feel the pressure increase as your dick immediately starts to expand and elongate within the device.
At the same time water shoots out from the top valve to accomodate the increased pressure and to make room for your growing penis.
Step 4: Sit Back, Chill Out
Once you’ve pumped to your desired pressure you can just chill and let the bathmate work its magic.
Step 5: Repump
After 4-6 minutes, or when pressure has started to fade, simply re-pump the device as you did in step 3, then chill out for another 4-6 minutes.
By now you’ve worn the device for 8-12 minutes and you’re done with it for the day….that’s it.
As you get more advanced you can extend that time to 15-20 minutes if you want.
Step 6: Enjoy Your Dick Pump
Ripping this thing off you’re going to immediately notice that your dick is pretty monstriously sized now.
Your dick is going to be heavier, your flaccid hang is going to be huge, and your girth is going to be significantly larger than what it was before.
What Gains and Results Can I Realistically Expect?
One question a lot of people ask is: does bathmate work? The answer is yes, and here’s how.
What I love about the bathmate is that you can expect the immediate gratification of a fat cock pump, in combination with the longer-term permanent results.
First, something to keep in mind is that the bathmate is primarily a girth builder.
You can certainly still make some results in length, in fact, I’ve seen some guys make some pretty amazing bathmate gains for length.
However, overall you’re likely to see more permanent results in the girth department.
Anyone who mentions ridiculous gains in length or girth like (4+ inches) from this thing is lying.
If you are interested in making a lot of length gains then I strongly recommend you consider adding an extender to your arsenal, that you use in combination with your pump.
But, anyway, lets get on with the type of gains you can expect:
Short Term/Pump Gains
The instant gains is one of the things that really turns guys on to the bathmate initially.
After pretty much your very first session you can expect to gain about a 0.5″-1″ girth increase, and about the same in flaccid length/hang.
These temporary gains are similar to a muscle pump that you would get from the gym. They will last a few hours initially before fading, but as you continue to use your bathmate more these gains are going to stick around for a longer duration of time.
The gains on flaccid hang are something to specifically mention.
Your dick is going to be significantly thicker and heavier after your pumping session is over, and as previously mentioned, you’re going to have a significant increase in your flaccid hang/length.
For example, for me, it looks like I always have a 30% erection going even though I’m completely flaccid, and that’s because my hang is so much larger after a bathmate session (which is especially great for me, as I am naturally more of a grower than a show-er).
The other thing you’re going to notice is that you’re going to have fuller erections after, from the increased blood flow and retention that pumping provides.
For me, my dick is significantly fuller in the hours after a bathmate session when I get hard, and the actual erections tend to linger longer even when the “excitement” has ended.
The last thing I want to mention is the effects it has on orgasm and pleasure intensity when masturbating or having sex.
Basically, after you pump your dick is a little worn out from the micro-damage that occurred from pumping, and this makes your dick significantly more sensitive.
At this point, any type of stimulation to your dick is intenisfied, so masturbating or sex in general, along with cumming, just feel WAY better.
Really even if the bathmate didn’t do anything else, I might recommend it just for this effect.
Long Term/Permanent Gains
I’m not going to bullsh!t you, gains are primarily based how frequent and how committed you are to using your pump.
Just like with working out your muscles, this is a gradual process and you get out what you put into it.
But, with just 8-15 minute sessions, 3-6x a week, you can expect to gain anywhere from 0.5-1.5″ of girth in combination with other exercises.
And if you were to use the bathmate exclusively, you could expect to see about 0.25″-1″ in permanent girth over the long haul.
What I can tell you is that even 0.25″ of girth does make a HUGE difference in the size, look, and feel of your cock — I’m living proof of that.
Length is something that tends to vary more.
Some guys make good length gains from pumping and others will make less. Keep in mind that pumping is primarily a girth builder — despite what other sources may lead you to believe.
What I will say is that if you combine your bathmate sessions with jelqing that easily everyone should be able to achieve great results (0.25″-0.75″ gain) simply from newbie gains in a very short period of time.
Thats exactly what happened to me, which i’ll be talking about right now:
My Bathmate Results – Before and After
Initially I started at 5.4″ girth (slightly above average), and within just over a month of using my bathmate in combination with a bit of jelqing I managed to hit 6″ of permanent girth.
This means I made gains of 0.6″ girth in over a month which was fantastic for me, and honestly beyond my intitial expectations by far for that short of a timeframe.
Coming up below this next section is my bathmate before and after pictures.
Warning: The pictures coming up have my dick in it, so its definitely NSFW.
Note: The after progress picture is my permanent results and not a post-pump pic. I specifically took these pictures after a 4 day break from all forms of PE to make sure none of my dicks size was being influenced by any kind of a lingering pump effect.
Also, if you want to read my in-depth progress/success log of my bathmate progress and journey, along with my bathmate routine, timeframe, how often I did it, how I recovered better, and what I learned with this pump then you can check it out my clicking the link below:

Overall, I can say, that I am totally happy with the gains I made.
One new thing for me since gaining is that regular condoms really don’t really fit anymore, and typically cause my dick to become purple/discoloured from the tightness when wearing them.
Other than that having a bigger dick is pretty great.
At 6″ girth I always get told by women how good I feel inside them, and I’m still not overly big, so anal sex isn’t an issue.
The Different Series and Models
When I first got into this the only pumps they had were the bathmate hercules and goliath models, however, now they offer quite a few more.
There are currently 3 different series of pumps and each series has 2-3 models within that series that differ in size.
The first series includes the hercules and goliath models that were the first pumps they ever released.
The second series is the x-series which includes the x20, x30, and x40 models.
The third series is the xtreme-series which includes the xx30 and xx40 models.
Which Series is the Best
I will just get right to the answer here.
But, I also go into more detail on how I reached this conclusion in my other post about what is the best penis pump (so you can also check that out if you want, but it’s not required).
What I Reccommend
The best series for majority of guys reading this will be to get the hydromax x30/x40 series (middle-price series).
The reason? Well, it’s a slightly better pump than the hercules (35% more power, better valve, and includes a (non-essential) comfort pad).
Additionally, it costs only a bit more in terms of price than the Hercules (lowest-price series) does.
And, it costs significantly less (half as much) than the next model up, which is the Xtreme series (highest-price series).
Honestly, it’s really as simple as that.
For instance, when comparing it to the lower-end hercules; the valve is better on the hydromax x30/x40 than the lower-end hercules/goliath model, due to the fact that the x30/x40 has a piece of plastic on the valve (pip) that you can flick to open and close the device.
When the device is open water leaks out, when the device is closed it doesn’t. The older models lacked this feature which is one the reasons why the x30/x40 has more pressure that you can achieve.
However, even though the older valves (hercules) lacked this open and close feature, it really wasn’t that big of a deal, and you could still get a really good pump either way.
Also, the comfort pad included in the x30/x40 is a nice addon. I will say that it is beneficial for some and pointless for others (I removed mine, but I am also used to not using one).
Furthermore, as previously stated, the X30/X40 has 35% more power over the hercules model (feels more like 15-20%, but still its more powerful).
Besides these mentioned differences ther is practically no other differences between the hercules and x30/x40 series — as all bathmate models are pretty much the same besides some additional features and a bit of difference in total pressure.
Option 2: XX30/XX40 (Extreme Series)
Your other option if you don’t have a spending limit is to get the Xtreme-series (xx30/xx40).
This is currently the best bathmate has to offer.
It comes with additional features exclusive to its series such as the handball pump (you pump up using a hand-pump resembling those found on old perfume bottles), that attaches at the top valve.
Along with some extra stuff exclusive to its series:
- Carrying case with lock and key
- Water-based lube
- Measuring gauge to track your progress
- Bathmate towel and sponge
- Shower strap
- Comfort pad insert
However, the reason I do not recommend this for most people is simply because:
- This pump is not needed to see great results. You don’t need a handball-pump to see great gains. The other features (carrying case, lube, sponge, etc) are nice but just non-essential/luxurious novelties.
- This thing is expensive. It costs about twice as much as the middle-priced x30/x40 pump that I recommend.
Basically, the Xtreme series is overpriced in my opinion. With the handball pump being the only real worthwhile feature, the other stuff to me seems to have been thrown in to increase perceived value and to ultimately justify such a steep price increase over the x30/x40.
The handball-pump is definitely not required to make good gains.
In fact, I made most of my initial gains from the hercules model, which is technically the weakest of all of them in terms of pressure.
However, I will say that the handball pump really is the best thing about this pump. And it definitely does add a new experience when pumping.
While the other models from bathmate require you to pump by jamming the device into your body, the handball attaches at the top, you squeeze it with your hand, and it allows you to achieve a more controlled, smooth, and slighly more effective pump.
The bottom line is that using the handball pump is slightly more effective, and makes the pumping process more enjoyable and easier.
I recommend the Xtreme series for advanced guys who really want to benefit from getting every last edge they can, to really max out their gains.
The other guys who should get this are the new guys who want to get the absolute best product upfront and aren’t overly concerned about the price tag.
If you can justify paying this much for a dick pump, then get it, it really is the best there is.
Option 3: Hercules (Original Series)
Last, we have the original series (hercules and goliath)
As previously menitoned, the hercules was the first pump I owned, and what I made a lot of my gains from.
Again, it’s technically the weakest in terms of pressure, but of course we only figured that out once bathmate told us by releasing their newer models.
So in other words, this pump is fine and you can expect great gains from it as well.
It’s also the cheapest.
Really, if the x30/x40 series wasn’t around then the hercules is what I’d be recommending instead to the majority of people, simply because it’s effective and affordable.
In summary, get this is if your budget only allows for it, and know you will still make great progress.
So, overall, what I reccommend:
- Best all around (cost effective-performance) (most guys here will get this one) = x30/x40 series
- On a tight budget and/or don’t want to spend the extra cost of x30/x40, but still want a great pump to make gains = hercules
- Do you want the best that bathmate has to offer upfront and are willing to pay for it = xx30/xx40
Which Model/Size Do I Need
I know the sizing can be confusing with these things.
The generic bathmate sizing program on their main site also sucks and tends to be inaccurate.
So here are my sizing recommendations:
Girth Recommendations:
- If you are <4.2″ Girth then I recommend you get the x20.
- If you are <5.5″ Girth then you can get the x30 or xx30 or hercules (all same size), or if you’re something like 5.3-5.4″ you could also go with either x30 or x40 size and still be fine.
- If you are 5.5″> Girth then I recommend you get the x40 or xx40.
These measurements are the way they are because you tend to expand about at least half an inch in girth inside the device.
So if you were 5.5″ girth right now and went into the x30, xx30, or hercules, which has a max girth of 6.7″, you would likely expand to about 6-6.3″ish and be close to maxing it out very soon.
For instance, once I hit 6″ girth I could feel my dick squeezing hard against the walls of my hercules (which has a max girth of 6.7″), so I pretty much grew out of my hercules in just over a months time which was annoying…then I had to upgrade to a bigger pump.
Length Recommendations:
- For length recommendations refer to the picture above.
Testimonials
Here are some quick and to the point, real testimonials from guys who just got their bathmate.
Best Place To Buy Bathmate
It is not recommended to that you go and buy a cheap bathmate because it can very likely be a fake.
A used bathmate could also have an issue with the valve/pressurization that you didn’t notice in the initial pictures.
Plus a used dick pump is kind of gross even if it can be thoroughly cleaned.
When I first bought mine I noticed that there were a lot of distributors (even back then) each on different websites selling these things as “new”.
Your best option is to not get them from the distributors but right from the official manufacturer.
Basically, some of the “distributors” may be selling counterfeit pumps as technically anyone can make a website and have it appear in Google.
And in the case of the distributors who are selling real ones, they all have to go through the manufacturer to get them anyway.
So I recommend you cut out the middle man and get your bathmate right from the official manufacturer.

I can only imagine warranty concerns and issues would be a lot easier to deal with coming from the offical manufacturer as well.
When you go with the official manufacturer you can also be sure that it will be shipped discreetly. Here is how the bathmate came to my house when I needed an upgrade:
Conclusion
So, this concludes my comprehensive review.
The bottom line is, that the enhancement industry is full of crappy products, downright scams, and false claims.
However, the bathmate is one of the very few products that isn’t one of them.
In fact, its probably the product I would recommend the most to absolutely anyone who is even remotely interested in improving upon the size and health of their dick.
And that’s because the bathmate works.
It provides instant gratification in the form of a nice fat dick pump, its safer than other methods and devices out there, and its also one of the easiest and most fun products to use in all of male enhancement.
Really, it doesn’t get much better in this hobby than being able to pump up your dick up and have an immediately bigger cock in a matter of minutes.
As well as knowing that your dick is actually getting permanently bigger as well.
So get yourself the bathmate, start pumping, and start growing.
