I’ve always wanted to try a pump. I’ve seen them for both full pussy pumping and just for the clit, and they look so intriguing. Pumps are supposed to increase blood flow to the genital area and create a more intense sensation during sex. The reviews on these types of products are less than stellar, so I have put off getting one time and time again. When Good Vibrations offered the Vibrating Pleasure Pump for review, I figured it was time to finally try one out and see how it worked.
The Vibrating Pleasure Pump from Good Vibrations comes in a pink and white box, with a full-sized picture of the product on the front and back. Some product information is on the sides of the box. Inside is the pump, 2 sleeves, 2 small sponges (one is a replacement), and a small paper with instructions.
The Pleasure Pump is designed for external use and to pump the clitoris and surrounding area. It can also be used on the nipples or on a man’s balls. It comes in two colors – I got the smoky black one. The device is 7” long overall, and made of a smoke translucent ABS plastic. The cup at the top is bout 1 1/2″ high and 1 1/8” wide. Inside, where this cup attaches to the neck, is where the sponge is folded and placed to prevent any lube from getting inside the unit and damaging the motor.
The neck is flexible, and a button located on the handle controls the speed of the vibration. There are three speeds – low, medium and high, all steady. The vibrations on the highest setting are moderately strong, and the pump is fairly quiet during use, although some background music will help mask the sound.
The batteries are inserted by twisting off the bottom of the unit where the tube is attached. The batteries go in one + side up, and one + side down. Alkaline batteries are recommended.
Two clear TPR sleeves are included. The sleeves are easy to slip over the top of the cup. One sleeve is filled with 10 prickly nubs, while the other has a slight raised bump in the center.
Attached to the unit is a 15” long tube which connects to the black pump. The pump is covered with hearts and has a heart shaped release valve to quickly release the pressure and lessen the suction of the cup.
To use the pump, the sleeve-covered cup goes over the desired area, the bulb is pumped to the desired suction level, and then the vibrations can optionally be turned on for more stimulation.
To clean the Vibrating Pleasure Pump, the sleeve and sponge should first be removed. If necessary, the sponge can be washed and thoroughly dried. The sleeves can be washed in warm water and antibacterial soap. The cylinder shouldn’t be placed under running water – rather it should be dipped, open side down, into water. It can also be wiped with a soap and water cloth and dried.
So, Did It Work? The Vibrating Pleasure Pump is … interesting, and not quite what I expected. The sleeves were easy to put over the cup, and it wasn’t hard to position it over my clit. The first pump of the bulb was, well, wow. It wasn’t a crazy suction, but I could feel it pulling at my clit like when my husband would do it with his mouth. The suction kept up well.
The vibrations I could mostly feel around my clit, but not directly on it, even on high. Every so often I had to pump the bulb again, and I’d get a bit more suction which would tease my clit. I had thought I could pump and release over and over, mimicking a sucking sensation, but the release valve didn’t seem to clear the suction all the way so I’d have to wait for a bit for the suction to ease to pump the bulb. When I did, though, the suction pulled my clit out and …wow, what a sensation.
The pump wasn’t enough to get me off on its own, or even with another toy. It was pleasurable, though, during foreplay sessions as it was quite a tease. And it was…interesting. It worked fairly well on my nipples, but since it’s only a single head you can only do one at a time, and it reminded me too much of a regular breast pump. My husband wouldn’t let it near him, so I don’t know how well it would work on his more intimate parts. I’m not sure how much I really like this yet, or if it will grow on me more, but I’m glad I finally got a chance to try it out.
