How We Picked the Products

I preselected 40 different clitoral sex toys and pumps for this article. As an admission requirement, all the review samples had to be made from body-safe materials – I’d rather pay extra than settle for toxic material. Once I had the labia pump toys ready, I developed a list of the test criteria that we could measure on a scale from 0 to 100. These included:

• Design. Instead of looking like an oxygen mask, we prioritized products that still looked sophisticated but encouraging. As there are different types we also gave importance to the products that featured more than the other products such as quick air release, which is vital to make sure your clit pumping experience is safe and enjoyable
• Ease of Use. Clit pumps are quite intimidating devices and the major challenge is to keep a strong seal. Therefore, we prioritized products that are easy to control, as much as possible we want you to just slap the open end to your labia and pleasure yourself. Masturbation shouldn’t be that complicated, am I right?
• Material. Our golden rule is to make sure the products we test use non-toxic materials, like Silicone & ABS plastic. Since they are all safe to use, we gave an edge to the products that used higher quality to fully satisfy users who want that luxurious feel in their sex toy.
• Safety. We make sure that you don’t have to be afraid of getting your clitoris hurt when using this product. Our team tested thoroughly how the safety features of each product work and ranked the products that don’t give some sort of unpleasant sensation even after a long period of time.
• Versatility. Since there are clit pumps that are almost interchangeable with pussy pumps (not all the time) we position products that can easily do the same job. One product that stood out is the Trans Masc Pump 2.0, the versatility of this toy in catering to even non-binary and trans is simply remarkable!
• Comfort. It’s not rocket science, but we made sure to be meticulous in picking products because improper use can lead to long-term compromises to the blood flow in your clitoris. We concentrated on products that the testers found effective in making their clits sensitive without causing any irritation or discomfort.
• Settings. In this category, we have a hard and fast rule- the more the merrier. Aside from the suction power, products that pack multiple settings will always take our vote for you(our dear readers) to have more options to explore.
• Stimulations. Aside from the stimulation an engorged clitoris brings, we made sure the initial contact and suction were satisfying as well. Products that have better materials are ranked higher in this category as the cups/cylinders give a better impact when materials like silicones are used.
• Build Quality. When it comes to sex toys, quality is key. That’s why we tested to make sure all the review samples are of high-quality material with a variety of colors, including bright or neutral options, and some are even transparent, letting you watch your clitoris change size with each use. We also carefully considered how the manufacturers put everything together to ensure you get the best product possible in terms of materials and looks.
• Charging/Battery Life. We believe that battery life and charging proficiency are critical factors in creating a truly enjoyable sexual experience. That’s why we gave an edge to the rechargeable review samples, and we make sure to carefully evaluate their durability and longevity with each use. While the main focus in this review is on pussy and clit pumps, some of our products also feature a bullet vibrator which we also took into deliberation.

During testing, we rated each test criterion on a percentage scale from 0% (Worst) to 100% (Best). We then calculated the overall score using different weighted metrics depending on the importance of the test criteria. Half the total rating comes from The Result (25%) and Safety (25%). After that comes Stimulations (15%), Comfort (10%), and Build Quality (10%).

The reviewers had a great roadmap of how to do the testing with this list. And after a month of in-person testing, I had a bunch of reports to make sense of. I started by analyzing the findings with comparison charts, picking the similarities, and digging deep to understand the differences.

I also used information from the research department to compare my notes with those from other users on the internet, including feedback from major sex toy forums. And after 28 long hours of deliberation, we believe these are this year’s 8 best clitoral and pussy pumps.

1. Bloom Intimate Body Pump: Overall Test Winner!

Why we love the Doc Johnson Bloom Intimate Body Pump:

Among the many things we loved about the Doc Johnson Bloom Intimate Body Pump, its versatility stood out. The package featured two differently-sized attachments for the vulva, one for the clit, and another for the nipples. The vulva cups, 3″ and 3.5″, offered convenience, allowing users to enjoy the suction regardless of size or shape (You can see them all in the below image).

Although minimal, the size difference lets you pick the specific attachment that fits your body comfortably and conveniently. And with a clitoral and nipple cup, the pump allowed users to experiment and customize the experience, comfortably accommodating personal preference and mood.

Our testers also loved that the pump slotted in as a solo play accessory as well as it did as a partnered sex toy. You can also incorporate it into foreplay or roleplay, and its water-resistant design means you can take the thrill to the shower. More importantly, the motor has multiple power settings, making it easy to regulate the intensity to either gentle, intense, or wild.

The design was another highlight of the review because of the sleek and ergonomic build that significantly simplified the user experience. The handle felt cozy in the palm, and the well-raised buttons made it easy to regulate the intensity. In addition, the attachments felt sturdy and flexible enough to accommodate different shapes and sizes comfortably. “I was surprised at the attention to detail that went into designing the cups,” our product test lead Sandra Larson wrote in her test report. “They followed the natural body curves, and as long as you hold the pump at the right angle, the suction pressure reaches your preferred spot flawlessly.” It does take a while to get things right with the pussy pump. A bit of repositioning and fiddling is necessary to get the seal plush against the skin.

Stimulation-wise, the toy is more flirtatious than combative.  It doesn’t shoot for orgasms but instead delivers slow and steady suction, gradually pulling blood into the spot, making it more sensitive to stimulation. The vibrations add a unique touch of class, turning the laid-back suction pump into a hot throbbing bloom of sensation.

The suction was impactful, and most users will gasp from the gentle yet intense pleasure. However, the vibrations added to the sensations, stimulating the already ‘active’ vulva. Unlike regular vibrations, these weren’t buzzy. Instead, they felt fuller with the engorged and more sensitive vulva, taking in the slow and steady humming.

While the pump might not lead you into climax, the coordination between the suction and vibration patterns stimulated the vulva and clit intensely, making any further sexual contact more arousing. “I found it worked well as a warm-up toy, getting you ready for a steamy masturbation session or partnered sex,” says Rachel Sommer. “My partner and I enjoyed the scene, lying together on the bed, our vulvas throbbing and watching each other twitch from the sensations.”

The nipple attachment proved to be a dark horse, inducing a feel-good factor to self-pleasure. “My husband Tim and I enjoyed the view of my nipple slowly getting engorged, and the heightened pleasure from a quick touch was exciting,” says Sandra Larson. “Although a bit weird, watching the action through the see-through material made it incredibly hot.” Overall, our testers rated Doc Johnson Bloom Intimate Body Pump as the best clit pump on this list.

Minor issues we found during testing:

The button placement could be better. Although well-raised and easy to reach, you must press and hold to turn things off, which can feel like an eternity when you’re suctioned and possibly overstimulated. The quick-release button worked, but not always instantly.

In addition, our testers found the clit attachment a bit short and only ideal for surface-level stimulation. People with more depth will find the cup limiting.

Why Doc Johnson Bloom Intimate Body Pump is the best pussy pump:

• Versatility: Our testers loved Doc Johnson’s inclusion of four attachments to target the vulva, clitoris, and nipples. The impressive attention to detail was evident from the get-go, with an extra vulva attachment (0.5″ wider) ensuring it fits your body comfortably and conveniently. In addition, blending suction pressure and vibration settings made the sessions more satisfying because the suction drew blood in, making the sensitive vulva or clit ready for the vibrations. Whether playing solo or with your partner, the pump came in handy.
• Design: The ergonomic, cozy pump significantly simplified handling and promoted effective triple stimulation. The cups felt durable and flexible, with the seals around the mouth following the natural body curves to retain suction pressure during use for the best results. More importantly, the straightforward design made switching between the attachments quick: you won’t need a manual.
• Stimulation: The unique blend of suction and vibration patterns made for an exciting experience. While the suction pressure drew blood into the vulva, clit, and nipple, the rumbly vibrations hovered over the already sensitive area, making the stimulation fuller and more rewarding. The best part about it? The resourceful motor packs 7 vibration patterns and suction settings with independent controls for better customization.

2. Doc Johnson Pussy Pump: Budget Pick!

Why we love Doc Johnson Pussy Pump:

Doc Johnson Pussy Pump is your best bet if you’re seeking to explore the vast world of pussy pumping without breaking the bank. For only $31.99, the product is ideal for budget seekers and collectors looking for an easy-to-use and robust vaginal pump. Everything from the well-thought-out dimensions to the slight curve that lets it sit plush against the vulva and the straightforward design makes it a massive bargain.

Besides the competitive pricing, the team loved the design. “I wouldn’t describe it as ergonomic, but I thought the designer paid attention to detail with impressive perks like a slight curve on the cup, making it easy to sit plush against the vulva without discomfort,” says Sandra Larson. Of course, we didn’t expect luxury features on the budget sex toy, but we thought the solid build was impressive for the price.

The pink color gave the pussy pump a retro vibe, and it felt like a dated ornament that you can’t figure out why you love it so much. Although I was dumbfounded why Doc Johnson used an opaque material when half the fun of pussy pumping is the view of the labia swelling, the consensus was that the $31 piece was structurally sound. Although it won’t win any design awards, it did what it promised: sustained suction pressure without leaks or weird chemical smells.

Our testers loved the sensations from the suction, describing them as beginner-friendly. “It started mild and gradually built into steady and intense suction pressure,” says Rachel Sommer. “It never got painfully intense even after endless squeezes of the bulb, but I could feel my vulva swell and pulse.”

We loved the slow yet steady pressure because it was more accommodating for people with sensitive skin. Although strange initially, the experience got better with time, and even those trying pussy pumping for the first time will love the resulting sensitive vulva because it made masturbation and partnered sex more thrilling.

This product won’t make you climax, but you’ll undoubtedly enjoy sexual activities after using it. “Suddenly, my clit felt fuller, and any subsequent actions with my fingers or sex toys led to deeper and drawn-out orgasms,” says Sandra Larson. “It pushed me over the edge in less than five minutes, a testament to the pussy pump’s effectiveness.”

Although it wasn’t the most versatile piece, the team loved that you could incorporate the vagina pump into partnered sex. It’s more of a foreplay aid or warm-up toy, helping draw blood into the vulva, rendering it more sensitive and thrilling to stimulate. “I tried using it on the nipples, but it didn’t work as exceptionally as anticipated,” says Sandra Larson. We recommend Doc Johnson Bloom Intimate body pump above if you’re after a 4-in-1 piece that’ll stimulate the vulva, clitoris, and nipples.

Lastly, this product was among the easiest to use in the article. As long as you have two working hands, it’s foolproof, and anyone can use it. The squeeze pump felt solid and sucked out enough air that you only needed a few squeezes. In addition, the quick-release valve worked reliably well, and getting the suction cup off the vulva was instant.

Minor issues we found during testing:

The bulb became a bit slippery with the lube involved, and the hose felt cheaply made. When bent, it constantly crimped, which affected the rhythm.

In addition, the pink chamber was a bit opaque, thus blocking the view, a bummer considering the visual thrill is half the fun of pussy pumping.

Why Doc Johnson Pussy Pump is our budget pick:

• Price: The $31.99 price tag made it stand out because most pussy pumps cost over $70. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced collector, the cheap price meant you could add a quality pump for a fraction of the cost. It has well-thought-out dimensions, a plush connection between the cup and vulva, and a straightforward design, making the price a massive bargain.
• Design: Although describing it as ergonomic would be a stretch, we loved the retro look, which made it feel like a dated relic you can’t get enough of. We loved how the designer paid attention to detail, with the slight curve on the cup making it easy to make a connection with the vulva without discomfort. We didn’t expect much from the budget toy, but the solid build was impressive for the price.
• Ease of Use: Doc Johnson Pussy Pump was among the easiest-to-use pieces in the article. As long as you have two working hands, the controls are foolproof. There are no buttons or vibration capabilities to regulate, but a squishy yet firm squeeze ball that felt incredibly soft inside the palm. The quick-release valve was reliable, and getting off the suction strangle was as instant as a press of a button.

3. Fantasy For Her – Her Ultimate Pleasure: Oral Stimulation!

Why we love Fantasy for Her – Her Ultimate Pleasure:

From the get-go, Fantasy for Her – Her Ultimate Pleasure by Pipedream looked sleek and fun. Its eye-catching spaceship-like design featured alluring purple and glossy accents with a hot pink finish that screamed for attention, introducing herself as the ultimate licking pussy pump. While the tongue sleeves and finishing around the cups could be better, we loved the functional build and combination of pumping and licking.

Our testers highlighted how some of the features felt rushed. However, our first impression was that of a sex toy looking to make a statement. Everything from the bright purple color to the flicking tongue and robust suction looked like an adult toy that meant business. Getting the tongue well-positioned and ready for the action was a bit of a fumble; things got more addictive and intense in no time.

The suction pump isn’t the most subtle piece we reviewed. It felt robust and committed to the task, with the suction pulling blood in all the right places, leaving your vulva and clitoris puffed and super sensitive. The extended tongue (image above) reaches the engorged vulva, tickling it in a rhythmic blush without hesitation for intense sensations.

Although the oral stimulation wasn’t as perfect as expected, the team loved how the vagina pump delivered incredible sensations. “The quality of stimulation was special,” says Rachel Sommer. “I’ve used numerous sex toys that claim to revolutionize oral sex, and very few do. Fantasy for Her actually did a decent job.” Combining suction pressure with a flickering tongue and vibrations made for a thrilling experience- weird and wild, but worth every second.

The buttons were easy to reach and felt prominent, making the user experience straightforward. It’s one of those ‘grab-and-go’ toys that only take a few uses to become a pro. There’s certainly a learning curve, and the device felt awkward initially. However, once you’re in the loop, positioning the tongue for the best results and regulating the vibrations without halting the fun proved bliss.

Lastly, the versatile piece lets you customize the experience to match your personal preference and sexual mood. Whether you want to play with the tongue alone or the suction pressure, there’s something for everyone. You can also choose to have the vibrations on your G-spot and nipples or mix all three for a blast of sensations.

The device is also ideal for partnered sex and anal play (tongue-side only). The package included two extra suction cups (image above) and tongue sleeves, giving you a variety in texture.

Minor issues we found during testing:

Our primary concern was the god-level precision needed to get the tongue well-positioned. Getting it off with an inch means you won’t get the coveted teasing fun, but instead settle for a weird tapping.

In addition, cleaning was a bit tedious with the multiple sleeves, suction cups, and motorized parts to navigate.

Why Her Ultimate Pleasure is the best for oral stimulation:

• Design: Our testers highlighted how the sleek, fun design was eye-catching, and anyone looking for a piece that doubles as a glowing ornament will find it perfect. The spaceship-like build with alluring purple, glossy hues, and a hot pink finish made for a glorious look. More importantly, the well-thought-out design with a flickering tongue, multiple suction cups, and tongue sleeves made Fantasy for Her – Her Ultimate Pleasure stand out.
• Stimulations: The device combines standard suction pressure with vibration patterns and tongue flickering, making it one of the most functional pieces in the article. The team found the vibrations and suction pressure robust, with Sandra Larson saying she had to remain stuck on the first suction level because the second was borderline uncomfortable. Of course, resistance varies from person to person, but no one will leave here feeling like they’d have wanted more power.
• Versatility: The multiple pleasure options, including vibration patterns, suction pressure, and a flickering tongue, complemented each other, making the sensations more thrilling. While the suction drew blood in leaving the vulva and clit puffed and sensitive, the flickering tongue reached down to the vulva to stimulate it. At the same time, the vibrations added a unique dimension to the experience, laying the foundation for rewarding orgasms. More importantly, you can control each separately, making it easy to customize the sessions to match your sexual mood and personal preference.

Other Good Alternatives

Womanizer Enhance‘s dual stimulation design makes it the ultimate clitoral stimulation sex toy. It bridges the gap between traditional vibrations and gentle yet impactful suction patterns. You can also control both sensations separately, making it easy to customize the experience for optimal results.

The rumbly vibrations added a new dimension of excitement to the suction without any discomfort. You can choose to use the vibrations for foreplay or after the suction. In addition, the compact design, USB-rechargeable battery, and lightweight body meant you could take her anywhere.

Using the FTM pump is thrilling, whether you’re a beginner or an experienced connoisseur. With a transparent cylinder and optional adhesive rulers, you’re always a part of the action, and tracking the progress is bliss.

What Does A Pussy Pump Do?

Pussy pumps work by enveloping the vulva in its entirety, creating a vacuum to draw blood in and engorge the genital tissue. Unlike a clitoral pump which is clit-specific, the vaginal pump draws blood to multiple spots resulting in a swollen vulva – labia, clitoris, and vaginal opening.

Encouraging more blood flow into the sweet spots increases sensitivity and tightens the entire vagina to enhance excitement and sexual pleasure. It also helps women with arousal issues and sexual dysfunction enjoy sex more.

And for some people, a puffed-up vagina or clit is visually appealing, an essential and mostly overlooked turn-on.

Pro Tip: You can also incorporate creativity in your pussy pump use. For instance, Jessica and I use ours to stimulate other erogenous zones like the nipples during sex. I recently started using it on her during bondage and BDSM play as a tool to stimulate and tease her into submission.

Clit Pumps vs. Pussy Pumps?

The significant difference between a clit and pussy pump is the crotch area covered. While the latter targets the entire vulva, drawing blood to the labia, labia minora, labia majora, vaginal opening, and clitoris, the former is more specific in operation. It focuses entirely on the clitoris.

Because of this difference, clitoral pumps are suitable for engorging the clitoris when you intend for a quick masturbation session that doesn’t involve vaginal penetration. On the other hand, a vagina pump is an all-rounder, and you can use it to elevate the quality of penetrative sex and experience intense orgasms.

Are Pussy Pumps Safe?

Clit and pussy pumps are generally safe to use. They’re manufactured by numerous trusted brands and come in different materials and features. Vagina owners can use it for more pleasurable sexual sessions without fear or guilt if you follow the safety instructions and never use it on body areas with any tissue damage.

Note: Clitoral and pussy pumping are advanced sex acts, and you must take great care when doing them. Any action you take upon the information on this website is strictly at your own risk, and we will not be liable for any losses, injuries, or damages. Learn more.

How To Use A Pussy Pump?

It’s easy to use a pussy pump. The product comes with all the information you need, from the materials used and how to manipulate and clean the toy afterward. Meanwhile, here are some tips to help you:

1. Before Sex For Increased Blood Flow

Clit pumps aim to stimulate and enlarge the clitoris. A few seconds into using it, you’ll feel aroused, and your vagina starts to produce its natural juices.

2. During Sex

You can also use the pussy pump during sex for more pleasurable sexual intercourse. Many vulva owners find it difficult to reach orgasm, but once they stimulate the clit correctly, they’ll be screaming in no time.

3. Use Water-Based Lube

Always use the right lube with your sex toy. In the case of a pussy pump, it’s important to use water-based lube to make you wetter and feel more comfortable.

4. Know Where The Release Valve Is Located

Familiarize yourself with your pussy pump. The release valve is one of its vital parts, so make sure you know where and how to use it.

5. Try It On Your Arm First

Before putting it down there, try the device on your arm first. It’s a great way to get the feel of it. Practice a little until you’re confident enough to try it on your clit.

6. Use It Solo First

You’ll surely be very excited to share this toy with your partner. However, it’s better to try it alone first, and you can masturbate with the toy and learn how to use it.

7. Use A Safe Word For Partner Play

Always have a safe word whenever you engage in partner play like BDSM. A pussy pump is an excellent addition to your accessories but be sure to have a safe word you can use, especially when you want your partner to stop.

8. Never Use It Inside Your Vagina

There’s a reason why it’s called a clit pump in the first place. It’s meant to be used in the clit alone, so never use it inside your vagina. Otherwise, you’ll be putting yourself in danger.

9. Never Use It Longer Than 10 Minutes

Don’t get carried away by all the beautiful sensations you’re experiencing while using the pussy pump. Use it for 10 minutes only since more extended use can damage blood vessels. That’s enough to enlarge your clit and make it extra sensitive to the touch.

10. If You Feel Pain Or Your Genitals Change Color, Immediately Stop

Stop using the pussy pump immediately once there’s pain, discomfort, or a change in the color of your genitals. Be responsible for using the device and put your health and safety first at all times.
