Works great as long as you understand what it can and can't do

I bought this a few months ago as a portable personal rinse shower after reading some bad reviews about RinseStation, a of which the current competitors for this system. My use case is a portable shower for rinsing off with fresh water after surfing or kitesurfing. I've used this system probably 30 times in the few months I've had it and it's worked great and my friends have loved it too. When you open this you might think it's a cheap Chinese import. It is, but it works. It's essentially a polypropylene storage bin, similar to the Rubbermaid-style tubs you can find at a hardware store. The pump and battery are at the bottom. On the outside there is a brass quick connector for a long hose, a power button and a charging port. You can charge both at home and at the cigarette lighter. PROS: - The battery life seems quite long, I've used it for 3 or 4 days in a row without charging and I haven't run out yet. - Brass quick-release fittings make it easy to connect and disconnect the hose with no cross-threads (one of the main complaints with RinseStation threads) CONS: - The lid doesn't leak-proof so you can fill it with a hose at home and dump it in the trunk or the back of the Cars squirts out water while driving - it's not insulated at all. It works great with warm or hot water but you will need to fill the 2 water bags provided and keep them in a separate insulated fridge if you want them to stay hot 4 or 5 hours later when you need them. One of my two water bags has been leaking for several weeks and is therefore unusable. But if you store hot water in an insulated cooler, this device will give you a very comfortable hot shower after a winter surfing session. It is equipped with a pressure washer, a shower head and a rotating sprinkler nozzle, but the pump does not work. not enough for a real pressure washer. It's enough for showering, I use a yellow shower head that works great. I hope the long term reliability is good, but I wouldn't be surprised if it failed in less than a year (so far so good after 4 months.)

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • I'll add it later
