Bathmate and Hydromax Reviews – Editor’s Rating
Original Series (Hercules and Goliath): 
Hydromax X-series (X30 on):
X-Treme series: (for experienced users)
The Good: It really does work, although for more permanent improvements it’ll take longer to see the results. It’s also safe and not really all that hard to use. It’s definitely a league above other low-quality pumps out there, which is mainly why it’s so popular.
The Bad: Its popularity is also its main drawback, as there are a lot of fake Bathmate products. So you need to do some research on the seller to confirm they’re legit.
Overview: Bathmate is looking to be a great brand in 2017 on, and makes penis enlargement actually fast, easy & safe. Bigger is better? “Does Bathmate really work?”
Guys – you’ve probably seen some porn, and some actors are ridiculously big. Even if mentally you KNOW its probably faked, as many porn stars use prosthetics and good camera angles – we can’t help comparing.
Or even if your lady says size doesn’t matter- you wonder if she’s being nice to you.
Editor’s note: I remember a couple of years back when I served in the military – where guys are forced to bunk and shower together; when one ass used to go round naked, slapping other guys thighs with his dick, just cos he could. Whether or not you get Bathmate, don’t be that guy ; )
Bathmate has somehow become very popular in 2016 and looks set to do even better in 2018. Because it makes penis enlargement fast, easy & safe.
Now you could try taking various types of pills and supplements- which cannot work to make your dick physically grow, sorry. But if what you want are the size and actual gains, you probably should try Bathmate.
Is Bathmate safe to use?
Bathmate is not exactly “high end”, aimed at the everyday guy- but retails at easily over $100+ per piece (but there are several options so read on…) Now you could get a cheap air pump, but we’ve heard too many horror stories about getting badly bruised.
That was kind of fearsome- so we did a lot of research, and were hesitant to try at first. But the Bathmate hydropump system uses a water-based pump system for more evened-out pressure and added comfort. It’s many times more efficient than air pumps; you can use when you shower – and though you do have to put in some time, it really works.
Safety – Side effects: How has this been tested?
This original series and all the Bathmate gadgets that followed have all been clinically proven safe to be used in the genital area.
These devices have undergone rigorous clinical trials at the renowned Aspen Clinical Research for Global Product Testing. This testing ensures that products are compliant with FDA and GCP standards and safeguards – and also that the results from the trial have controls, are tested against placebos and are as unbiased as can be.
The gadgets are all made from medical-grade materials, and they’re safe for the skin and free of phthalates. Essentially, you won’t get any sort of rash on your skin when you use this.
Easy and Fun?!
So you don’t have to resort to expensive and complicated surgery, to get a bigger dick. You can ALSO perform manual exercises and eventually get decent results if you’re doing it right.
It’s just that with Bathmate it takes a lot less effort, and you get faster results. Besides, it can make the entire process a bit more fun. You’ll be more motivated to carry on, especially when you see those gains.
Which Bathmate is right for me?
Years back, the first 2 basic models were the Hercules and the Goliath. The Hercules (love the names) was meant for more normally endowed men, and the Goliath is the big version.
(there is a size guide on the Bathmate site, for all models – you can enter specific measurements) The Hydromax line is the improved version, with various types of efficiency and comfort features. The Hydromax versions also deliver 35% more power, which tends to speed up the results you get.
All the models are self-contained – compact, simple and efficient – through the Hydromax Xtreme (meant for advanced users) includes a hand pump.
All the models have an “ergonomically designed gaiter” – a softer rubber like suction which helps to comfortably create a seal against your groin area, to create a kind of suction while maintaining safety and comfort. Basically- pumping and sealing and water pressure inside the device (read later about how to use) creates internal pressure on the device, which stimulates or trains the tissues of your penis in a certain way. Like a kind of strength or resistance training.
Here’s an overview of the different models:
The Hercules – This is the original standard sized Bathmate; meant for guys with an erect length of max 7 inches. Its supposed to give you extra space to grow – so the max potential length is 8.5 inches, girth 6.7 inches.
If you’re already big, you’ll prob need something bigger. But this will fit most guys (the Hydromax x30 is the “upgraded” equivalent in terms of size) The Hercules is also the least expensive, and some people think it’s the “go to” model for beginners.
HydroMax X30 – We think the HydroMax line is about Efficiency. The Hercules is simple and uncomplicated to use, but the X30 makes things efficient and fun, like you don’t even have to think about it being used. But note that the Hercules and Originals are good enough for most people.
Hydromax is meant to get you max results in the fastest time- The valve system is different from the originals, with 35% more suction.
The X30 will be the best choice for most guys out there – it is the upgraded size version of the basic Hercules, and it also gives plenty of room for future growth. Max gains are 8.5 inches length and 6.7 inches girth as the upper limit.
HydroMax X20 – This one is actually new, and the latest niche version: meant to be good for guys with a naturally below average size penis (no shame in being honest with yourself). Meant for guys about 5 inches in erect length, or under. Allows for a max increase to 7.5 inches, and a girth of 51/2 inches.
HydroMax X40 – The X40 has the same features as the others in the series and the X30. But as you can guess, its bigger, yet smaller than the Goliath (big originals version).
For guys with erect penis size 7 to 9 inches, max length capacity 10 inches (yes the website will teach you how to measure and all that).
The Goliath – Supposedly the biggest penis pump in the world… probably meant for existing porn stars, mutant horses and the like ;p For a 9 inch penis , with a max capacity of 10 ½ inches.
HydroMax Xtreme – The most “advanced” Bathmate models are upgrades of the X30 and X40, and probably intended for users who already have several years of experience with Bathmate. Or who are more selective and deliberate.
They are upgraded (even further) versions of the Hydromax, with a handball pump for added efficiency- even easier to pump and move around while using – and a range of extras like a kit for cleaning, storing and more.
Instructions and How to Use Bathmate
Each of these gadgets comes with a set of very clear instructions on what to do. We recommend you see this first, from the original Bathmate site:
https://youtu.be/YuxTep1jbag
Guys, starting to use the Bathmate is easy. And its quick to add on into your daily routine- a session of pumping takes less than 10 minutes.
HOWEVER: you do need to see this as being something like a strength training routine : ) You need regular practice to make gains. Which means you need to allocate time- at least twice a week, for a few minutes at a time- in your bathroom likely.
Basically: you fill the tube with warm water, you place this over your dick flaccid .Though with more experience, try this with various stages of erection, as the resistance increases.
At first: You simply fill the tube with warm water from your bath or shower, place the cylinder over your un-erect penis. Then pull the pump toward your body once and slowly release to create an initial seal. Water gets ejected from the pump through the release valve at the end of the cylinder.
Now you can start pumping. Pull the cylinder against you and slowly release, and as you pump, your penis will become erect and increase in size. The pressure can be slightly uncomfortable at first, depending on how sensitive you are- but after a couple of sessions we got used to it quickly. It actually felt like a deliberate “jerk off” after awhile!
Don’t be a Wanker
Do note that if you have been wanking/masturbating too much before your Bathmate session, your dick might be slow to respond. We actually recommend that you use the Bathmate when you are fairly ready to have erections. Over time, using this while erect gives you much better results.
Keep pumping and releasing slowly and when no more water is ejected from the valve you’ll know that you’ve reached the maximum pressure level.
Once you’re at your ideal pressure, leave the pump on for five or six minutes. The pump is actually simple in design – so you can just remove your penis after. We don’t suggest pulling the pump off too fast though!
You keep pumping: pull in and out, pressure> release> continue. You leave this on for about 5-6 minutes if you are pressed for time. But ideally you should be doing this for about 2-3 sets: so you make faster gains, for a total of fewer than 20 minutes per workout. (though you can still make some gains with even less) the key is consistency.
Note: better to use warm water, though if you are brave, we find that luke-warm water doesn’t make much difference. Cold water will probably make your anatomy tense or shrivel though – not good (see below for “twisting”!)
Also, after you are more experienced, you should try using the pump when you are semi erect (after about 1 month), or fully erect after 2-3 months of regular practice. Though it can take some “visualization” to maintain your erection (you can use the cute picture above for help)
The pressure and gains are better, though it can get pretty intense/high pressure if you are not used to it.
“Warming up”?
Some guys say that “warming up” or prepping your cock and balls for the “workout” makes a big difference. It’s said that this adds serious levels to your comfort –but frankly, we were a bit lazy and barbaric, so we didn’t warm up much!
Editor’s note: For me, it was more important that I get the time with the pump working, rather than I had a totally easy time of it. So I just basically use the Bathmate whenever I can, and don’t have many problems with my balls being twisted (see below). But when you first start out, it may help you to pay attention to this…
Some guys say it can help to have your dick and balls/scrotal sack nice and loose. If you have a bit of funny positioning for whatever reason, a testicle might get sucked into the pump. And no – unless you are carelessly PUMPING hard on your groin while your balls are already twisted- it is not as bad as it actually sounds.
Some people might be more sensitive, but we didn’t have any problems. But you can try “warming up” using some penis exercise techniques. You can also try using a bathtub or shower with warm water- test your comfort level. But we were frankly trying to go fast- and still did not experience any problems.
Permanent Results
Now presumably you’ve been using this daily for a while now and if you’re a beginner you should start using it while in a flaccid state. Then you can start practicing using it while semi-erect and then erect. You have to do this if you wish for more permanent results. According to the Bathmate guide, you can have permanent results after using it for 6 weeks at least.
But let’s define what “permanent” really means. Perhaps the best way to define this is to compare it with regular exercise and workouts. Now you can lose weight when you go on a diet and you go on a regular workout schedule. But once you lose weight, that doesn’t mean you can suddenly stop exercising … If you revert back to being a couch potato, then eventually you will regain the weight you’ve lost.
It’s much the same thing with the Bathmate. If you use this for at least 6 weeks, then you may notice some permanent improvements. After 12 hours when the effect shrinks back right after using it, your penis will still be bigger than it was before when you started out. The change comes slowly, and that’s a good thing for your safety. After about a year or two, you can end up with a gain of 1 to 1½ inches in length, plus a more striking improvement in girth.
But you have to keep using the Bathmate afterward. It’s like a treadmill you use to exercise properly, though quite a bit easier. (that’s the best image we could think of for now). You may have to keep using it to maintain the gains you now enjoy, at least for the first few months.
You won’t have to use it daily to maintain your gains, whoever. You only do that when you still want to grow. But when you think that it’s now the right length and girth, you can use it just twice a week for about 5-10 minutes or so per session. And yes after some months the gains do become permanent.
Price
One way you can check whether or not it is authentic is with the price. The price will, of course, depend mostly on which model you want to buy. The Hercules costs about $110 on the official site, but resellers may offer other enticements such as free shipping for certain countries. Other sellers may even add various freebies to the official package.
What authorized sellers can’t do is to offer discount coupons so the price goes way below the recommended price. The manufacturer is quite firm about this requirement. It provides one easy way to identify the fakes, which often cost much less. And sometimes there may even be some sellers who sell used units as “new” at a discount.
Counterfeits
As we’ve noted, the Bathmate brand is extremely popular. So it stands to reason that you’ll find lots of fakes in the online ecommerce sites. These brands don’t work as well, and in fact, they can be very dangerous to use. So it’s not exactly good news for a product specifically designed for a sensitive n valuable body part.
The issue of counterfeits has dogged the Bathmate brand for years. This was especially true back in 2008 and 2009 when fakes from Korea flooded the market with substandard units. So nowadays you really have to be very careful about choosing your seller and where you buy your Bathmate.
For now, we only recommend this store, which ships and handles orders from the US and UK Easily.
Additional Notes
- Cleaning. You can get the cleaning kit, but it’s not absolutely necessary. You can just wash it in soap and water, and you’ll be fine. You can also follow the cleaning instructions on the manual.
- Jelqing. You can use this with the Bathmate, but it’s not strictly necessary. If you do perform these manual exercises, do it before using the Bathmate, not after. That’s because the penis will already be so much larger right after using the hydro pump.
- It works whether you’re circumcised or not.
- There’s a 2-year warranty for the Bathmate, and there’s even a 60-day no questions asked guarantee for a full refund.
- The packaging is discreet without any text or images that will reveal the contents. The same goes for the shipping documents and the invoice.
Again, Bathmate is not absolutely necessary for any man. You can learn to be satisfied with what you have. You can also become bigger with manual exercises. It’s just that with Bathmate, you get faster and more impressive results and it’s much safer to use too.

ED: A Review of Historical Treatments – NCBI – NIH
great bathmate review. i think alot of people are ashamed to own a penis pump, but i see no difference between that and a girl owning a dildo! it’s self improvement and there’s nothing wrong with this!
HI i would like to order hyromax X30 and i would like to discreet it to my mail please and can you wrap it so my landlord know what i bought . and how much would it cost me and does it work really well after 3 months? does it gain length and girth?
Thanx for nice review really enjoyed this review and I would like to see more updates.
I have one testicle well the bathmate work for me?
I still stand by penis extenders and will not fall for this buzz about penis pumps in whatever name and design they appear. Penis extender to me is the way to go for an impressive penis size that is also permanent. I have tried it and I am stuck on it. It may not be too comfortable to wear for some people who live a busy a life. But there are some that you can wear inside your clothe and it will be concealed. For some of them, you can even wear it to sleep. How awesome! I am not about to mention or promote any penis extender because I am not paid for it, but you will get a much lasting result with a penis extender. The review author must acknowledge this fact!!
Thanks so much my guy! I have heard so much about it and got one for myself. I am now feeling like a superhuman – a sex machine. My gains stay as long as 8 hours and that is enough time for me to impress any new catch in my net. Don’t know why I never knew about Bathmate Hyrdomax all the time I was wasting away in self-pity as a result of my small dick. Now, I am in charge!
After reading your article on the Bathmate Hydromax, I think I want to give it a try. I must admit that I am a little bit skeptical on whether it will work, but then i wouldn’t know unless I tried. Someone wish me luck
Hi Sammy, I know I am neither the admin nor the author but I want to assure you that you have nothing to worry about. I was once like you and did not want to waste my money. I don’t know how it happened but I finally placed an order and got one for myself. At first, it looked scary and big for my pitiful 5” penis. I went ahead and made use of it in the bath as instructed and to be honest, that first time is an image that will not be lost in my memory for a long time. I was happy with the temporary result after using it for 15 minutes.
So, I will encourage you to give it a try. If you are looking to have permanent gains, you might want to add jelqing. I usually wear the Bathmate Hydromax for 5 minutes to warm my penis up. Then I do 100 sets of jelqing by hand and another 100 with the jelqing device. When I am done, I put on the Bathmate for another 10 minutes to complete my 15 minutes process of wearing the device. I am bold to say that I got impressive results with it in just 3 months.
Well, this comment is becoming too long. Just give it a try Sammy and I assure you that you will be happy with the result as well. Another thing, don’t do the process today and another in the next week. You can do it every other day if you are tight on schedule. Best of luck!
How come some people are getting results with this device and I am not. I followed procedure and did it as suggested but my gains usually go back to normal after 3 hours. I have read that some people retain their gains for up to 12 hours. I find it frustrating and don’t really know where I am getting it wrong. Would appreciate some advice cos I am really freaking out
All I can say is that I love the increase in the size of my penis after using Bathmate Hydromax. I don’t know if I have the patience to dutifully follow the jelqing procedure as suggested by Dru up there, but I sure would love to have me some permanent gains.
This shit doesn’t work! I used it and injured the girth of my penis. I hate it so much that I didn’t want to give it away or return it to the manufacturers. I broke it and got rid of it. That is one riddance to the bullshit.
I don’t know if I am to use the Bathmate Hyrdomax when my penis is erect or not. I got it and I am really confused on how to make it fit since my penis cannot get stuck inside like it should. I hope I get a reply soon or I will conclude that I need to get my penis erect before using it.
My concern is to grow my penis permanently and not just have a temporary gain that will impress a lady temporarily too. You have written about penis extenders and now I’m reading about Bathmate Hyrdomax for penis increase. I know some guy in the early comments said he achieved some gains with Bathmate Hyrdromax, but I am really running on a tight budget. With that said, should I go for one of the penis extenders you suggested in one of your posts or should I go for Bathmate Hydromax. Please reply me quick so that I don’t make a big mistake. Would hate it if I got the wrong product.
I have used air pumps in the past and I got some results after using it. My question is, will this Bathmate Hyrdomax give me better result because I really want to grow permanent penis gains?
It should not matter at all unless you have some abnormality in the penis as well. Good Luck!
I got mine from the link you posted and have been using it for the last 5 weeks and some days like a good disciple. I ‘ve noticed 1-2 cm increase in the length of my penis. Is this encouraging or should I expect more gains? Please let me know if there is anything I can do differently or if I am on the right track of penis growth. Thank you for your time.
I have been reading comments on this blog and thought I should chip in my thoughts on Bathmate Hydromax. I have been making use of my own for about 4 months or a little more than that. In a month, I will say I use it 3 to 4 times in a week and in the 4 months I have used it, I am nearing 1 inch gain in the length of my penis. One thing I have noticed is that my diet affects how much gains I get. I also work out my entire body in the gym and so I notice that when I am on my protein diet, my gains seem to be more pronounced after making use of Bathmate Hyrdomax.
The major thing I enjoy is that my stamina seems to be at its peak after I make use of the device and have sex afterward. The erection also stays rock hard for at least 3 hours. When I combine it with VigRx Plus, I really over enjoy myself.
Unfortunately, I have not made use of penis air pumps or any other penis device and so I cannot offer advice on which is better. But making use of Bathmate Hyrdromax has really given me encouraging results. I was almost discouraged from continuing with it at first especially when I was not seeing permanent gains. Well, I was encouraged by the comments I read and decided to give it more time. Personally, I have observed the gains I have even on days that I do not make use of the device. My wife was the first to notice the difference and the thickness of my penis even in a flaccid state.
I know it can be discouraging for newcomers to penis pumps. The way I see it is that if I have to spend 6 months or even 1 year to get the results I want, it will be well worth it than going under the knife or taking pills that might hurt me in the long run.
My gains may not be up to what I have read, but I intend going on with it for as long as I have to. Finally, I will advise that anyone trying out Bathmate Hydromax for the first time should be very patient, especially if you are looking to gain permanent gains.
For what it’s worth, you will at least enjoy the temporary gains you get and the rock hard erections afterward.
Hi Juan, your comment sounds sincere and so I have one question for you please. Are you just making use of Bathmate alone or adding penile exercises to your routine? How did you take your measurement to know that you have gained almost 1 inch? I have heard people saying they made use of a measuring tape while others made use of rulers. I just want to be guided appropriately so that I can also share my experience after some months of use.
You did not say if you had any gains in your girth as well. I think I have heard that air pumping has some side effects and so I was wondering if the Bathmate water pump has side effects as well.
Hoping to hear from you as soon as you can respond.
Thanks,
Felix
I was encouraged to make use of this device for at least 6 months by the people at Bathmate and so I stuck to my routine of making use of it 4 times a week for 15 minutes. I am happy with the 1.7” gain I have noticed in 7 months. I have rock hard penis when erect and I also noticed more stamina (I don’t know if my mind is playing tricks on me on that).
At a point, my Bathmate device started losing suction and when I complained on their website, I was taken through on how to properly clean it so that it can start working as it should. I guess this issue would not have come up if I had bought the kit initially when ordering for my Bathmate Hydromax.
So far, I have not noticed any side effects with using this device only benefits in the size of my penis.
I need urgent help, please. I got mine last week and have made use of it for 4 days now and I noticed that my penis becomes kind of mushy when I make use of it for 5 minutes and jelq for another 5 minutes. I don’t know if I am to enter the tube fully or partially erect or just plain flaccid. I noticed that I get a little hard result when I enter in a little erect.
I really don’t know if I am getting it correctly because it feels like I am not on the right path. If anyone will be kind enough to put me through on the routine that works for them, I will be most grateful.
I just have one question everyone. Does your penis get erect as you pump or do I need to masturbate first to get erected before wearing the device? This question seems to be reoccurring here with no definite answer yet.
I think the hype on the manufacturer’s website of gaining up to 2 inches and more is not achievable. Or has anyone used it for long and gotten the said result?
In case anyone is interested, I noticed an increase in expansion of my penis as well as longer lasting erection. I like using the device as a warm-up device and also to loosen tense muscles down there.
I recently started dating and going out with a beautiful girl of my dreams. I know that the issue of sex will come up one of these days. The problem is that I am not too proud of the size of my penis. I was wondering if I can benefit from Bathmate Hydromax. I don’t know how to even go about it. Should I buy it and start using it so that I can build up the amount of time I can stay erect like someone mentioned above?
I would hate to let my girlfriend down when I fail to meet up to her sexual expectations from me. I know it feels a little like I am not being open with her when it comes to the actual size of my penis. But she is too pretty and always fantasizes about great sex when we talk. I am helplessly in love and want to impress her by all means. Someone should please help me out ASAP.
My issue with this is that I still live with my parents and I would hate for them to find this device in my room. Also, how do I even start ordering it without taking the risk of having it fall into their hands? Has anyone ever faced this challenge before? Please, what is the way out because I have read a lot of positive reviews about Bathmate Hydromax and would want to try it out.
I made the biggest mistake of my life by buying from eBay because I saw that it was half the price. Did I get the original product? Hell no! The thing is as defective as they can get. I almost complained that it was not sustaining any vacuum when in use until I say that no other person had complained of such. When I fill it with water, the water keeps dripping especially when I hold it upside down.
I am really paying for failing to get it from the manufacturer’s website as advised here. I am here to warn anyone thinking of buying this device outside the manufacturer’s website so that you don’t end up with the fake.
And the funny thing is that the fake looks very much like the real thing. Now I am going to spend money ordering for it from the original website. So freaking painful to waste money this way.
I don’t like this idea of using something under the shower or in a bath. I have been using an air pump and do so while lying comfortably on my bed with no hitches so far. I really wonder what makes people choose such pumps that make use of water as against air pumps. I just take it as very inconveniencing. Am gonna stick to my air pumps by the way.
I have been partaking in PE routine and after much conviction decided to get Bathmate and add to my routine. I am not trying to be biased here or be guilty of favoritism but I noticed that my penis looks a lot fuller since I added Bathmate to my routine.
But that does not mean that I will be abandoning my PE routine for Bathmate alone. I think both of them complement each other. I usually make use of it before and after my PE routine. Just thought I should let someone know.
Guys, I am okay with the length of my penis but I need my girth to match with what I already have in length. I don’t know if Bathmate Hydromax will help me increase my girth? I don’t know if my penis will fit into the tube since I am 8 inches when I am fully erect. How can I go about this please or can anyone suggest what I can use for girth expansion alone?
I have been using Bathmate for at least 5 weeks and made use of it every day for 20 minutes per day. By measurement, my pumping pressure is around 170-175 and after much use in these past weeks, I have not seen any increase whatsoever. I am beginning to wonder if all these people that got positive result with it are making use of the same device I bought. I am really confused.
Hi Julius, I think you are getting it all wrong. Have you not heard that you should only make use of the device on some days and take rest in between sessions? You are overdoing it by all standards by using it every day and even exceeding the recommended 15 minutes of use a day.
Just like when you are working out at the gym, do you work on the same body part every day? If you do that, you will hardly see the result. That is why you are advised to take some REST every other day. This is the time it takes for your muscle to break down and rebuild itself. Try using it 3 to 4 times a week with rest between and not exceeding 15 minutes and let’s see if you will notice some difference.
I still cannot get over the thought that this Bathmate Hyrdomax looks like a scary device. I cannot seem to put my penis in that thing. Just cannot bring myself to do it.
This is for Julius and other people getting the whole idea behind Bathmate and other pumps wrongly. You see, when using Bathmate or other PE devices, do not expect to see results in just a few weeks of use. You should expect to start noticing results from 4 months.
Some people get it wrong when pumping. You should pump gradually as against straight up pumping. Try pumping for a minute and allow it for some minutes before pumping again.
Also, do not be in haste when removing the pump when you have reached the 15 minutes recommended time. Also, apply a gradual release pattern by releasing the top of the device a little at a time.
Lastly and very important, do not ignore the benefits of adding jelqing to your PE routine. Add some stretching to that too and you will be amazed at the result you get. This technique is great for those looking for penis and girth increase.
I make use of the Bathmate Hyrdromax and pump to the point where my penis hurts a little. Is this normal? I don’t think it should hurt but I don’t know when to stop. Anyone with suggestions should please speak up. Thanks.
I am interested in testing it out as a sample before I can give my own review on it. I am not about to spend money on what I don’t know how effective it will be for me. Therefore, if at any point the manufacturers are looking for people to test their new product and give reviews on it, someone should please let me know.
Hi Garry, I feel for your position and can understand your dilemma. To help you out with the question of how to order it without them knowing what it contains, I can tell you that the shipping is usually done discreetly in an unmarked brown package. You can have the Bathmate pump and its kit fit into your shaving bag without anyone finding out it’s there.
I take it you are allowed to take your bath for as long as you want. If that is the case, you will not have a problem using it in the bath or shower for 15 minutes.
Perhaps this little inconvenience will help push you towards getting your own place!! 🙂
