The Hismith Max is, without doubt, the best affordable fucking machine for those who need more power. It’s not the best choice for everyone (that remains the Hismith Premium 4.0), but it is a serious upgrade.
The Hismith Premium was already the best all-round sex machine available, but sometimes it can struggle with really huge toys and very slow speeds. And for some, the five inches of stroke depth just isn’t enough (even though, again, that was one of the best in the category!) But that’s where the Hismith Max comes in. Rather than the 100W motor of the flagship Hismith Premium, the Max has a 200W motor for twice as much power. Essentially, that means it’s better at handling bigger toys.
The other crucial differences are the taller legs: double the height in fact. That gives you more flexibility with play styles. The longer stroke length of up to 200mm, or 7.87 inches, is also a massive upgrade for those who really like to take things deep and slow.
The added motor power doesn’t just mean it can handle larger toys, though. It also means it can operate more reliably at slow speeds because of the additional torque, with less of the stalling that can frustrate on lower-powered machines.
So the Hismith Premium is brilliant at ramming you hard and fast, but if you want to slow things down, even with smaller toys, the motor can tend to stall when you clench or it encounters other kinds of resistance. The Hismith Max just pushes on through.
The Hismith Max is not the fastest or smartest machine in the Hismith range. That honour goes to the Servok, at twice the price and many times the noise level too. But it is the one that keeps going where lesser machines give up.

Technical Specs
As mentioned, the Max has a 200W motor, upgraded from the 100W one typically found on the Hismith Premium. For reference, the Hismith Mini, which is also branded as the Lovense Sex Machine, Sinloli Mini, or Kiiroo Pleasure Drive, is around 70W.
The Hismith Max also has a longer stroke length of 7.87 inches, or 200mm. It’s only because of the stronger motor that this is possible. When you enlarge the crank that converts circular motion into thrusting action, you need much more force to drive the shaft through those longer distances. For comparison, the Hismith Premium, which already has one of the best stroke ranges of any fucking machine, is a mere 5.03 inches.
Naturally, all of this means the machine is physically larger and heavier, and therefore more awkward to carry around, but that added weight can also be a benefit when it comes to stability at higher speed (though there are other ways of stabilizing your Hismith).
The top speed on the Max is 220 strokes per minute. That’s actually a little slower than the Premium, which can do 267 strokes per minute. Frankly, I don’t think it’s a huge difference. It’s still roughly four strokes a second, and it’s actually very rare for me to use it that fast. But if you regularly max out your machine speed and think, “That’s not enough,” I would suggest the Servok machine instead, which is servo-driven and can pretty much vibrate back and forth over short distances. Or have a go with a percussive massage gun (actually, massage guns are also great as male masturbators). Of course, you won’t be getting such long stroke lengths.
So What’s It Like in Use?
The added weight means it bucks or tries to walk away a lot less than the Premium. This is just physics at work, of course. It also means it’s more unwieldy to move around by dint of being a lot heavier.
What really impresses me is the slow-speed performance. You don’t always want the machine on full tilt, and something these sorts of machines typically struggle with is really low-speed usage. We tested the around the 1 to 5% speed range, and it had no problems at all. It just kept pushing in like a champ. At these speeds it’s trivial to stop the Premium with a little resistance; the Max had no such problem.
One thing I will note is that this doesn’t have on-the-fly stroke-length adjustment — it’s the same mechanism at work as the Premium, just on a larger scale. Adjusting the stroke length is a mechanical change: you need to fully stop the machine, unscrew the crank, shorten or lengthen the distance from the centre, then tighten it back up. Only the Servok model offers dynamic stroke length adjustment.
For safety reasons, I would strongly suggest pushing the thrust arm to maximum extension first, then lubing up and positioning yourself comfortably with the toy fully inserted before you begin automated thrusting — and always start at a low speed. Especially given the longer range and additional torque, you can get seriously injured if you suddenly start it at high speed and find out that it went a bit further than you expected.
And, of course, don’t forget that if the stroke is too long, it can pop out too, and that can be equally painful on the way back in. As with any fucking machine, you really need to calibrate your playtime before you jump on wildly.
Big Toys
As mentioned, the Max is ideal for big toys. The largest I have is about 1.8kg (the dual-density Ram from GreedyCluster), and it had no issues. Naturally, you’ll need to increase the speed a little because it’ll have less pushing power with larger weights, so expect to go at around 5 to 10% at the slowest when used with anything massive.
And if you’re going to use much larger toys that aren’t from Hismith, you’ll either need a Vac-U-Lock adaptor or the large suction cup adaptor plate. These aren’t included in the basic package.
App Control
While the Max includes a wired remote control like most of the machines, and it’s the newest plasticky one, the same as the Premium 4.0 version, you really should be using it with the app. It can be a bit clunky and requires registration, but there are so many cool features hidden behind the app now.
You get a remote control, as well as remote play to invite others to control your machine through a simple web interface. That’s all fine. But more importantly, you get scripted playback.
This is where you can browse thousands of user-created machine scripts that dynamically control the speed, speeding up and slowing down at essentially unknown times. You can lie back and just be a pillow princess. I love these because it feels like another person is completely in control. Whoever crafted the script is in control, in a sense, but in a safe and consensual way because nobody else is actually involved.
One other really fun new feature Hismith recently added is synchronised toy control. If you’re lucky enough to have multiple machines, the speeds can be linked together for whatever nefarious purposes you have in mind — or reversed, such that a high speed on one results in a low speed on the other. Of course, this only synchronises the speeds. As mentioned, the depth isn’t dynamic, so a full rotation of one machine will not necessarily match a full rotation of the other.
It can also be used with the Lube Launcher accessory (which in essential in my opinion), to automatically lube at a certain speed, though this is less useful than the automatic or random timed controls. For a laugh, you can set the Lube Launcher as the master control, such that whenever you hit the shoot button, the machine will start at a set speed for some specified time.
Wide Accessory Ecosystem
One of the brilliant things about the Hismith Premium series and the Max is their use of a standardised and genuinely good proprietary Kliclok attachment system (Kliklok, QuickAir, and Vac-U-Lok explained). Some machines only have Vac-U-Lock or a very old Quick-Air system that can rotate in use. KlicLok is much more versatile because there are so many options that you can basically convert it to any type of attachment; you’re absolutely not tied to Kliclok only toys.
Particularly useful is the small spring adaptor, which adds a little flexibility to your positioning so everything isn’t quite as rigid. The extension can also be useful, but you should be careful with this and big toys. Unless you’re supporting them at the other end, they’ll weigh down on the mechanism and can really affect how it operates.
I’ve already mentioned the Vac-U-Lock and large suction plate adaptors. Those are essentials if you’ll be using it with your own larger toys.
Lots of lube is also absolutely useful to avoid interruptions during your play session, so I would recommend pairing this with the Hismith Lube Launcher 2.0. It’s an automatic lubing device designed to work with a cum-tube-equipped toy (Hismith sells their own selection of realistic ones, but with the right adaptor you’re not limited to those).
But there’s no reason you couldn’t just jerry-rig a tube and hang it above your play area to drip down, either.
Hismith Max vs the Alternatives
The Hismith Max isn’t the only machine capable of handling big toys.
The Hismith Servok, at nearly twice the price, can do much the same and it even allows on-the-fly depth adjustment. However, it is incredibly noisy, to the point of ruining the mood. The cost and noise level mean I wouldn’t recommend it for most people.
There’s also the FuckYeah, a British-made servo-based machine, but again, it’s nearly three to four times the price of the Max. It’s very similar to the Servok but a lot quieter, more stable, and with a more extensive software offering. You’d have to either be funny money rich or seriously investing in one because you’re a content creator who can actually justify it.
As it is, I think the Hismith Max offers a great balance between value at $1,000, and capabilities offered. It’s a step up from the Hismith Premium in almost every way — if you actually need those upgrades — and the Hismith Premium was already our top pick of fucking machines for most people.
The extensive accessory selection for connecting any toy, comprehensive app control and user scripts, double-height legs for stable play on the bed or elsewhere, and the sheer raw power … make this an absolute beast. If you love the Hismith Premium but need something bigger, there’s simply nothing else that matches it at this price point.
The only reason not to buy this is if you don’t play with big toys and don’t need a machine that can run as well slowly as it can fast. In that case, the Hismith Premium remains the best value for you.
