Our Review
Unless you go camping without camping facilities, you might think a portable shower isn't necessary. And yes, the portable showers with a bag hanging in a tree produce mixed results.
However, this 3-in-1 Travel Shower from Colapz is different, and I'm impressed with the one they sent over for us to review.
It's not just a shower!
Don't dismiss this because you think you don't need a shower. It is also a portable hose, which can be a handy addition for the active outdoor family.
Here are just a few things I can see this portable spray wash being helpful with:
- Cleaning the dog
- Cleaning muddy boots (and kids)
- Cleaning muddy bikes
- Washing sand off feet, shoes, and other beach gear
- Spraying down kayaks, SUPs, and boards to wash the salt off
- Helping clean wetsuits
How does it work?
The Colapz shower kit comes in a travel bag, with many accessories inside, including the power unit you charge with a USB cable.
With the power bank charged, you connect it to the pump unit and drop the pump into a bucket of water.
In this test, I used a Colapz Utility Bag filled with water.
And as a shower?
Well, yes, and it does work well as a shower too. :-)
Of course, you might want to warm the water first by letting it sit in the sun or by adding some water you heat from your camping stove.
