What is a Tenga Air Vacuum Cup?
There are tons of sex toys that you can stick a dick into. Fake pussies, asses and mouths and God knows what else. The collective noun for it is masturbator.
The Tenga Air Vacuum Cup is also a masturbator. You may know Tenga from the Tenga Egg. That is also a masturbator, but it is intended for one-time use only. The Tenga Air Vacuum Cup can be used several times and the special thing is that it can still suck a lot without batteries. Literally.
The Tenga Air is actually a "sleeve" or tube made of TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer). This is a super soft, flexible and elastic material. The sleeve comes in a hard plastic holder. After use, you can take the sleeve out of the holder and clean it so that you can reuse it. There are four Tenga Air Vacuum Cups: Gentle, Regular, Strong and Ultra. They differ from each other in suction power. EasyToys sent me the Strong in exchange for an honest review.
Unboxing
The Tenga Air Vacuum Cup has no packaging other than a printed foil. There are tiny icons on the foil that show you what to do: first you open the foil along the tear line. Next, remove the foil. Once the foil has been removed, the Tenga Cup looks very discreet; kind of like a black Matryoshka doll with a silver colored Tenga logo on it. Due to the shape, the cup is easy to hold. It is about 15 cm long, just under 7 cm in diameter and weighs 235 grams.
Then remove the round sticker on top, so that the air hole can 'breathe'. Then you turn the cap from the bottom. The sleeve contains a small black tube containing a packet of water-based lubricant. That's enough lubricant for one use. Do not throw away that tube and cap, because you still need them to store the Tenga Cup after use.
You can remove the sleeve from the black tube to clean it. The best way to do that is to turn it inside out. If you do that, you will also see that the inside of the sleeve has a few ridges. These are intended to give the glans extra stimulation.
The test drive
For the best experience, open the packet of lubricant. Fortunately, this is very easy because there is a perforated edge. Try to pour it into the hole and put some on the top of your penis, if needed. Make sure you have removed the sticker, because to get the penis into the sleeve easily, the air must be able to escape from the sleeve.
But that small hole has another important function. Because you can use it to regulate the suction power yourself. If you put your finger on the hole, no more air can get in or out, making the suction power very strong. If you take your finger off again, air can enter and the suction power decreases. If you move the Tenga Cup up and down, you can, for example, let go of the hole when you go in and cover it again when your penis is all the way in.
With a good hard erection and enough lubricant, it's easy to insert the penis. The inside feels wonderfully soft and cool. The sleeve clamps down on the entire length of the penis. When you move up and down you actually only hear the air whistling through the hole. Even without covering the air hole I could easily have an orgasm in no time.
As soon as you cover the hole and no more air can escape, the suction is so great that you can hardly take the Tenga off your penis. Your penis will be sucked tight, creating an extra stimulus. This way you can play with the intensity. One time you move it up and down without extra suction and the next time you alternate with your finger on it. After a bit of playing it will become clear how it works and you can vary to your heart's content.
If you came in the sleeve, you can take it out quite easily. Funnily enough, Tenga recommends running water into the sleeve, but it's better to turn it inside out and rinse it off. This is quite easy, because it is very flexible material. Use some anti-bacterial soap, as TPE is very porous and bacteria can form otherwise. Dry the sleeve well or let it dry before putting it back on.
To get the sleeve back in the black holder, you have to make a screwing motion. You should know that, otherwise you'll spend forever trying to figure it out.. Put the tube back in to prevent adhesion and screw the cap back on. Store it this way, because TPE attracts a lot of dust and the holder with the cap will prevent that. Now it is ready for the next time.
Conclusion
Yes, it should come as no surprise that I am extremely enthusiastic. Cumming is a piece of cake with the Tenga Air Vacuum Cup. Wonderful to masturbate or pleasure your partner with.
The pros of the Tenga Air Vacuum Cup Strong:
Soft material (TPE) with a nice texture
Extra suction power that you can control yourself
Easy to clean
Can be used often
Easy to hold
Discreet packaging, easy to carry
Quiet
Affordable
No mechanical or electrical parts, so it can also be used in the shower or bath
I think it is also suitable for men with erectile problems. With enough lubricant it should be possible to penetrate the sleeve with a semi-hard erection. You can still experience extra stimulation due to the suction.
The cons:
If you don't know how to put the sleeve in the tube after cleaning, it won't work. The trick is to screw it in!
The instructions on the packaging are in very small and almost illegible icons. Fortunately YouTube exists.
Make sure you take good care of the sleeve. Wash it thoroughly. Dry completely, store properly. Then you will be able to enjoy it for a long time to come!
