Best in the market for personal care products

I think I've had a look at this but I buy these for all my boats. They are the best on the market. However, they can be improved. This causes the nose to fall off. It would be great if they came with an interchangeable spout. Even if you can make cleaning easier. Eventually, the mold builds up and is difficult to remove. Eventually I lost the clip on top of the one holding it. So please provide some spare parts and it will be even better. I use them every day so expect some wear and tear. I've…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes

  • Not the best

Keep clean. on Camping & Hiking

Showering is what separates people and animals, and that is especially true in nature. Valve works well, no leaks. The only issue I found was the difficulty in filling it with water as the fill hole is on the side. Please note that even under the very hot sun, the water needs its sweet time to get warm enough to shower. I decided to heat the water in a pot over a flame and then pour it into a solar shower. One thing you should do first and foremost is don't buy a shower larger than 2.5 gallons…

  • Delivery was very fast

Worked great! for the shower

Worked great until someone stole it! Tag them while they are in the sun, we used them on a 5 week van trip, it was moved many times and ended up being stolen towards the end of the trip. The hottest temp we had was 106F in 80 weather. . Anything over 90F feels good, 106 is like a regular shower. The grip and adjustment could be improved but everything worked fine. It would be nice to have a clip to hold your head while wearing it. The included mirror broke, no big deal, we never used it and did

  • Certified

  • Not happy with everything

The bag is good, the valve is bad

The bag works perfectly from the tailgate of our van. I snap the handle around the rear wiper motor, prop up the tailgate with a dowel, it could use more support with 5 gallons of water on it, and I shower easily. However, try this value with wet, soapy hands! It won't slide up and down when you want to save water in the shower. So I went to a hardware store and found a nice 1/2" metal valve with a handle, cut the tubing about 1" above the slider that comes with the bag and pasted the value…

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Poorly thought out

Hurricane Matthew Lifesaver

Modern weather systems have made it possible for us to live in a five-wheeler RV without running water. We decided to take a chance with this product in hopes that we wouldn't have to keep asking friends to use their showers. So far the product has exceeded expectations! Today we had a high temperature of 81 ° and almost no clouds. After filling the bladder with 5 gallons of cold tap water, the product was released at 11:00 am. At 2:00 p.m., 3 hours later, the ship's thermometer read 104° and…

So far this is the only solar shower bag we will be using

We use solar shower bags 4-5 months a year so we think we know the different products well. , is the best. All fall/winter we travel our public lands in our pickup van, hiking and trekking to places where no one else goes. Of course we need a shower, but to shower in our camper we need LOTS of water (which limits the time we can be outside) and propane for heating (which limits the time we can be outside). Alternatively, we can use about a gallon of water for an outdoor shower, using the sun to

UPDATED: Handy Portable Solar Water Heaters - I got 104 feet in 3 hours

I bought 2 of these after research to replace aging solar showers made in the US from the 90's. I was very happy with the Advanced Elements 5 gallon model and wanted to try this 3 gallon elsewhere. You have done a good job. Here is my rating and time tests: The thickness of the vinyl is about the thickness of a baby pool inflatable float. Build quality is good but remember this is a vinyl bag with a spout and tube. At 8 pounds per gallon of water, they weigh 24 pounds. Of course, they will…
