This is an great shower. The water heated up quickly, and the thermostat was really helpful. However, we did have a pinhole leak the first time we used it. Patched it with duct tape while on the trip, and are hoping we can repair it more permanently at home.
Nice product. Bought this for outdoor solar shower at home. Ill give it a B+, because although it works well enough, you can tell the designer never actually used it. Does it get the job done/ Yes. I find it actually has enough volume for two showers with ease. An average sunny day warms it to a nice comfortable temperature. However the fill hole should have been at the very top, and the screw closure should be better designed. Also the retainer piece to not lose the screw closure is total crap and doesnt work at all. I cut the hose to the shortest possible length, because you will definitely need to have some way to hang this way above your head if you want to have a normal shower experience. We ended up building a winch system to get it up high enough. Also, it will not heat adequately if left hung up, it needs to be flat horizontal to get enough solar gain to heat adequately. Ultimately for the price/ I would buy again.
Pretty sturdy. Good size. I have 3 shower bags for when we go camping with this one being my favorite. The shower head on this is nice and the shut off valve is much easier to use than other brands.
Really Worth it.. I bought this because my unit was going to YTC and NTC. This thing is clutch! I just throw up my Woobie and poncho to make a makeshift shower, fill the shower bag half way up with water, use my jet boil to heat up water to fill the shower bag up, and voila. Shower in the field. I love it and its really just the little things out there when they expect you to baby wipe yourself down for a month lol. Capacity was one of my worries since my hair is down to my waist, but this thing holds a lot of water and I was able to fully shower without worry. I would absolutely recommend.
Bought this for our camping trip and filled it up to be able to take my shower. Within a few hrs of hanging it up to let it warn the whole handle had come off. Disappointed
Not so bad. I havent gone camping this year, but I know others who have these and I couldnt pass it up when it came up in my recommendation list. It helps roughing it a lot more comfortable!
Had a hole in the bag before we ever got to use it had to patch the hole then got 2 more holes the next day. After patching all 3 holes in the mountains it actually worked and had great water pressure. Not happy about having to patch holes in something brand new.
Took it camping just once. Filled it up and there was a hole in the bladder. We liked the concept, and it was easy to store and travel with. However, you cannot use it long with a leak. Returning the item for another brand.

Great except for small leak

Good but not great outdoor shower

Game changer!

Had a hole in it when I got it

Warms well. Not durable
