Ivation Portable Outdoor Shower, Battery Powered - Compact Handheld Rechargeable Camping Showerhead - Pumps Water from Bucket Into Steady, Gentle Shower Stream

I bought this as an emergency measure, as our boiler is currently broken, which has meant we can't use the shower. Although I can manage by boiling the kettle and filling the bath or the sink for a wash, but my boyfriend is mechanic and says he doesn't feel clean at the end of the day unless he has had a proper shower. I looked at a few portable shower options, but couldn't see any that would really suit our needs, but then I stumbled across this one, and not only did it have excellent reviews, but it was also a much better price than other similar options.Having tested it out, my boyfriend was so impressed that he has actually insisted that I write a product review because he says it is so good that it deserves one. Well, in order to do that, I needed to try it out too, so I have done, can confirm that it really is as excellent as everyone says it is. The water pressure is much better than I anticipated (and better than I have experienced in many hotels!) It is really easy to set up and use, and provided you are fairly quick, you can have a show and wash your hair with one large bucket of water (I used a 9l bucket). The pump is not particularly noisy, which is an added bonus, and it seems to run for a long time off a single charge. We charged it initially for about an hour and have now had several showers without needing to recharge it. We do a lot of camping, so I'm confident that even once the boiler is fixed, we will still continue to use this shower for years to come. My only minor criticism (and it's more of a suggestion than a criticism) is that it would be easier if the on/off button was on the head rather than on the actual pump, but this doesn't really cause any major problems. Overall, a very well deserved 5 stars, and I would probably have given it more if this was possible!

I bought this as an emergency measure while I couldn't use the fitted shower in the bathroom, and I've been really impressed with it.It's a nice clean design, is reassuringly solid and runs for the duration of quite a few showers on a single charge. It even comes with a bracket to hold the shower head that can be attached either by a sucker or a hook.I'd say the flow of water it produces is just right - sufficiently powerful to get yourself clean, but not so fast that it empties your water source too quickly. Even so, if you're feeding this from a bucket you'll want a large one - I'd estimate it emptied my 15-litre bucket in about 3 minutes.Moving the power switch from the pump end to the shower head would be helpful, but then you'd need an electrical connection alongside the hose, which might not be ideal. My only other concern is that if you forgot to put the watertight plug back into the charging aperture before immersing the pump, I'm guessing it would play havoc with the electrics!All in all, very impressed by this - especially at the price. Nicely done!

I use this indoors for washing my hair economically. The gadget plugs into a usb port to charge and the light changes from red to blue to show fully charged. The 3ft long cable is included.Once charged, you can immerse the fat bulb end in water and press the rubber 'on' button to obtain a very nice shower flow. It easily matches the flow of our non electric shower.This takes quite hot water according to the instructions between 10 degrees C and 50 degrees C.It would be ideal for washing off your bicycle after muddy rides or for cleaning welly boots .You need to make sure the bulb (pump) remains immersed in your bucket or bowl.The hose part is quite long enough if you wanted to hang the shower at head heightThere is a basic filter inside the pump which is easily removed for cleaning (just rinse out in water).It has two hanging possibilities. A hook shaped piece for branches and a rubber sucker for flat surfacesAccording to the box it can take temperatures up to about 45 degrees Centigrade which is a comfortable showering heat.When packing it away, check that the water empties out of each end, it can seem empty when there is still some in the shower head end which would make everything in the box wet if left.

I love this!!I almost retuned it because it came with a USB charger although I deliberately selected the mains model. I didn't have time to reorder a new one so I kept it and plugged it into the mains using my mobile phone adaptor.Such a useful item. I used it on a trip to Africa, where we had no running water. It comes with some charge already if you need to use it straight away. I tested it first and all was fine so I left it on charge overnight. I used it in a Large bucket and hung the shower head on a 6ft shower rail. The cord is long enough for this purpose but if it were a foot longer i would have preferred it.The water pressure created was surprisingly good, its not a power shower but it was much better than I expected. I used it with hot and cold water and both worked just fine. The on off switch is on the sump pump (so you have to remove it from the water or fish around to switch it off) but other than this its great.The pump is not noisy .

I bought this for use with washing our dogs. My husband was very sceptical, thinking it couldn't possibly be any good at such a low price. He has now admitted he was wrong! We bought the collapsible bucket at the same time and together they make it so easy to wash the dogs after a muddy walk. You fill the bucket with warm water, put the motor end of the hose in it and switch it on. It produces a nice, soft stream of water, but a strong enough stream to clean the dogs.We even used it ourselves in the bathroom once, when our shower broke and it was fine. We placed it in the basin next to the bath and turned on the taps to produce a steady trickle of warm water and hooked the spray end over the shower fitting.

I was pleasantly surprised by how much water pressure this unit provides.It will come in very handy for camping showers and also rinsing dirt and salty ocean water off my two dogs.I can't comment on the battery life at this time.It would be nice if it came with a carrying bag like the car kettle I bought, but I'll find something to put it in.

al principio estaba indecisa por este.producto pensando que podria fallar rapidamente, la realidad es me sorprendio, lo facil, seguro y la calidad. no ha fallado y si lo he ocupado la cantidad de veces al menos para desquitar su precio. funcional y muy efectivo para esos dias en donde no hay agua y que solo con cubeta puedes bañarte haciendo bastante eficiente para no estar a cantarazos.

Good product....as per specifications. Water flow is good 👍.

I am so tired of “Love it!” reviews. Here is the review that I wish I had before I ordered this product.This product is worth buying and works as described. The photo shows how many water holes are in the shower head compared to other camp showers. The shower comes with a hook for the shower head, but the hose is too short for my 5’7” height because the pump part must stay in the water bucket if the bucket is on the ground. I like this product and would recommend it to friends and family. That’s the short story. Keep reading for a detailed review.For those who value detailed honest product reviews, here’s my story:I ordered this portable shower product a year ago and practiced using it for car camping. Yesterday, I fell at home and broke my ankle bones on both sides of the ankle. Yeah, bummer right? So my downstairs does not have a shower or tub and I really wanted a shower because the ankle dressing is not supposed to get wet. I used a big clean plastic trahbag to protect the dressing and proceeded to shower with the Ivation Portable Outdoor shower. This review is based on my experience with the portable shower in a real world environment. I had stand by assistance from a family member. I threw on the floor a couple of towels and the standby person put a commode chair on top. I put the uninsured foot into a large plastic basin. I had additional dry towels purchased on Amazon nearby. I used a few drops of concentrated Dr. Bonner peppermint soap which can be ordered on Amazon in several scents and unscented. The bathroom sink was filled with water and a tiny bit of Dr. Bonner liquid soap. Making some water mess, I proceeded to shower. Very few drops of water went outside the towel barrier.This is what I liked:1) The hose was long enough to reach wherever I needed it to go. I am approximately 5’7” and had to bend for the water to reach my hair. The hose has water in it even when out of the water. Having the water basin and faucet at waist height was great and I recommend raising the basin for any use if you are tall so the hose can wash your hair.2) The charge is through USB which makes it easy charge with a laptop, or other USB outdoor device. The device was not charged for a year and the shower was still strong.3) The water flow can be stopped by folding the hose to kink it. As long as the pump at the bottom is in water, the water will flow. It took two hands to fold the hose. The hose is strong and thick.4) The on off switch is on the pump opposite side of the USB plus and is simple to operate. There is a strong plastic cap on the switch. The cap must be pulled off to see the push button switch.5) A gallon of water can provide a full shower. I used two gallons for a shower and to wash my hair. If I was more efficient, I could have used less water.6) This shower with lots of shower holes can be used as a shower system for people and pets. It is a more efficient use of water. Start with very warm but not scalding water because the water cools as it leaves the hose. Be sure to check the water temperature before allowing children and the aged to use the shower. Use common sense.7) For camping - this portable shower system is a yes. A black bag can cover the water to heat it with solar or water from a campfire can be used. Please use caution with hot water. For backpacking, it may add too much weight - but if the big shower feeling gets the family outdoors, the weight is worth the end result of happy campers.8) Power outages, natural disasters, emergency medical, natural disasters, building and construction sites may find the shower device helpful.9) I’m unsure how long it takes the device to charge, but can say that my device maintained a strong charge for almost a year in storage.10) If showering while standing in a basin and using a biodegradable biologically neutral soap, soapseed, the water can be poured out in specific area without harming nature. These soaps are sold on Amazon. I do not know if they will harm the device. I used Dr. Bonner. Oils are slippery. I did not use oils in the water and recommend not using oils in the water. Use oils, lotions and creams after the shower and wear socks untucks lotions and oils are absorbed into the feet. Don’t fall.What I did not like:1) The entire pump includes the on off switch and USB recharge port. The entire unit goes into the water. At some point water will enter the component and cause the device to stop working. I think the manufacturer should rethink having everything underwater or create a longer warranty.2) The on/off switch which is hidden under a grey cap is awarkward to reach down into the water to turn off to power each time you need to stop the device to soap up or scrub yourself. There is no other way to stop the water flow except to reach down into the water to push to on/off button or kink the hose. The entire device looks sleek, but the trade-off is extra bending to turn off the device and water flying everywhere while trying to balance oneself on one foot to reach into the clean water and turn off the device. The grey cap must be removed to turn the device on or off. The grey cap does not appear to create a water seal around the on/off switch and may be confusing to users.I first saw this device on a YouTube channel called CheapRVLiving. I recommend going to that channel to watch that video on comparing outdoor showering devices.If you found this review helpful, please give it a click. The helpful votes help improve my writing. One of my sons said that “nobody” reads long reviews. He said people just want quick statement if the product works or not. I enjoy showing him the helpful vote numbers add up because it shows him that you kept reading to the end. I am encouraging him to spend more time reading the actual reviews instead of looking only at the stars to reduce the amount of exchanges and returns he makes. The reviews help people know what they are buying so they are satisfied customers.

5年間は何の問題も無く使用できていましたが、一歩間違えば火事になっていたところです。
