Every man looks like an Adonis to his partner. Now, he can make his penis an object of beauty and desire with the Adonis Penis Pump. The pump arrives in a very obvious box with pictures and statements declaring exactly what the pump inside is intended to be used for. For storage, my husband and I took the pump and the sleeves out of the box and store them in a separate area of the toy box.

Use only a thick pump lube when using the Adonis. Thinner lubes will not create the necessary seal and will get sucked up the cylinder into the vacuum tube. This renders the vacuum function useless and also makes the tube unsanitary, requiring replacement with a medical grade tubing. Thinner lube in the valve release will also make the release malfunction and you will have to make very time consuming repairs to continue to use the pump. Do NOT pump with no release valve--this is ver dangerous and may damage the penis permanently!!

The cylinder is made of hard, smooth ABS Plastic and is rated an 8 on the safety scale. This pump comes with two TPR sleeves, a smaller pointed one and a wider textured sleeve. The textured sleeve continues up the shaft for about 4 1/2" and contains stimulating ribs for your enjoyment when pumping. The smaller sleeve also goes on the base, but has a pointed tip with a cross opening for the penis to be pulled through. This sleeve was too small for my husband to use. It was 2" tall and had a maximum of 2" diameter insertion. The larger sleeve had a tiny bit of stretch and allows for 2 1/2" diameter insertion. Remember, your penis gets wider along with taller when used in the pump. We ended up using the replacement silicone sleeve, purchased separately, for maximum comfort.

This pump vacuums the air out of the cylinder by using a hand operated pump. Instead of a squeeze bulb, the handle is designed to use the closing of your hand to operate the vacuum. Do NOT over pump, this will cause irreparable damage to the penis by rupturing internal soft tissue. Keep the pressure at a nice, soft pull and only leave the pump on for 15 minutes maximum. Take a 20 minute break prior to repeating. Only 3-4 repetitions per session is recommended.

This is designed for pleasure or mild ED. To prolong your erection, place a cock ring around the base prior to pumping and slide it on when you achieve the erection desired. For pleasure purposes, no cock ring is necessary, but common sense and using the time guides will keep your penis safe from damage.

Do NOT use if:
-you experience any pain.
-you notice discoloration or bruising on the penis.
-penis becomes numb from too high of a vacuum pressure.
-vacuum release is broken.
-blood or clotting diseases such as anemia.
-you have not discussed with a physician or have not performed research to learn the usage and precautions.

To clean the pump, wash the inside of the cylinder with warm, soapy water and a bottle brush. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Take care not to get water in the tubing. Wash the exterior and go over both areas with a toy cleaner that disinfects. Let it dry thoroughly prior to storage. Wash the sleeves in warm and soapy water, rinsing thoroughly. Let them air dry to prevent lint pick up.

This pump was not one of my husband's favorite pumps. At only 9" tall and 2 1/2" maximum diameter, it was a bit too small for his overall comfort. We use it in a pinch, but do not have it as a regular item for his enjoyment.

The hand pump is much nicer than the squeeze ball, but does tend to fatigue your hand after a few sessions. We both prefer to use the trigger pumps.

Due to the hand fatigue and smaller size of this pump, it has been delegated to the 'only if we have to' pile. Why do we have a pile named that? Well, when you use a pump for awhile and the lube starts getting inside, it tends to lessen the suction and pleasure for the user.

Rather than stopping our fun activities and washing the lube out, we grab another pump and continue our fun. So, when we have exhausted the better pumps--out come these 'have to' pumps if we haven't finished yet. When my husband decides to edge, there are many times when this pile gets picked through.

For those who like a tighter feel or have a smaller girth, this is a good pump. However, if you have any medical issues with your fingers, joints or hands--there will be some serious fatigue. I have arthritis and this pump is not for me. When this one gets pulled from the pile my husband knows he is the one that will be pumping away on it, with no help from me.
