Versatile Shower SystemWhether camping, hiking, gardening or cleaning, enjoy all the amenities of home without the need for plumbing. Simply place the pump in a bucket of water, and watch as it pushes a continuous stream up the hose and out the handheld showerhead. |
Gentle, Constant StreamOperating at a consistent .66 gal/minute, our portable shower offers ideal pressure that’s comfortable for infants, the elderly, small pets and delicate plants. Go from washing your kids or car to hosing down outdoor animals in a matter of minutes. Its applications are endless. |
Rechargeable 2200mAh Lithium BatteryShower anywhere, and limit your environmental footprint with a discreet device that quickly charges via an included USB cable. The lightweight, powerful gadget plugs easily into a laptop or 12-volt car adapter and provides up to 60 minutes of use on a single 2- to 5-hour charge. |
Hands-Free HangingDesigned for ultimate convenience, the 1.9-pound unit comes ready with a suction cup holder, S-shaped hanging hook and flexible 6.5-foot hose. The system allows you to suspend it safely from a tree, against a car window or anywhere you need hands-free advantage. |

How long can I shower?Using a 2.5 gallon bucket of water, you can get approximately 7 to 8 minutes of use. This is plenty of time to wet, wash and rinse your hair and soap up and rinse off your body. A helpful tip is to turn off the device while you’re actively washing. This allows you to conserve more water and energy. If you use a 5-gallon bucket with this method, you’ll likely have over 10 minutes of continuous use. |
How do I charge it?While at home, simply plug the USB cord (included) into the unit and into a USB compatible device such as a laptop or computer. If your wall outlet has an integrated USB charger, that’s even better. If you’re on the road, you’ll need a 12V USB car adapter (not included), which plugs into your cigarette lighter for easy charging while camping, at the beach, on vacation or at the park. |
How big is it?From the pump to the shower handle, you’ll have approximately 5.9 feet of flexible hose to move about. The entire unit spans nearly 6.5 feet, so that’s plenty of distance to hang it from an existing indoor shower curtain rod or high above your head from the branch of an outdoor tree. Still, remember that the entire device is compact and lightweight, so it stows comfortably in your backpack without worry. |

Product Description
Just Add Water
Here is a waterproof, battery-powered portable shower that can serve multiple purposes indoors or out. By drawing water from virtually any bucket, basin or sink, the Ivation portable shower system turns a pool of water into a gentle shower-like stream on demand. This level of mobility and shower-anywhere capability is great for many uses such as on-the-go showering for campers and hikers; accessible poolside or beach showering; gentle bathtub showering for toddlers/babies, eliminating the need to use the strong overheard shower stream; an easy, portable water stream for home car washers; outdoor horse cleaning, and even house-pet washing in the bathtub.
Rechargeable via USB - PLEASE NOTE: May include a wall plug instead of USB
For a true go-anywhere shower, a built-in rechargeable 2200mAh lithium battery powers the Ivation portable shower for up to 60 minutes on a single charge. Charging is easy via USB connection to a computer or laptop, or with a 12v car adapter (Not Included). Couple that with the included suction cup and hanging hook, and you’ve got a shower ready when you are. The suction cup works on most flat surfaces, and allows parents to use both hands when showering their children. Use the S-shaped hook when camping to hang the lightweight, 1.4-pound Ivation showerhead on any nearby branch, and voila! You’ve got yourself a modern “crying tree.”

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.

The shower was impressively powerful and felt like a normal shower. With the hot water generated by our solar bag (it was actually a little too hot so we diluted it with cold water) the shower was quite enjoyable after a day of collecting dust hiking. The suction unit is almost perfect in that it is able to drain almost all the water from the bucket. I accidentally popped off the bottom and discovered it has a coarse, mesh filter in there to keep out foreign objects that could clog the pump. The pump generally did not need priming except once when an air bubble got caught inside and made a bunch of noise and reduced the flow. Turning it off and then on again got the bubble out.
Charging it easy via a removable cap the exposes the electronics. BUT do NOT forget the charging cable! It is not a typical micro USB that you can find anywhere.
I have three minor issues with the unit. The first is the on/off switch is on the pump so someone had to stand outside the tent turning it on and off by reaching into the bucket of water and hitting the button. We did this to conserve our 5-gallon-per-person supply of hot water instead of running it constantly. You can avoid this by putting the bucket in the shower with you but then some dirty water might end up getting recycled--not a big deal when camping but it is less room in the already small typical shelter. I discovered the I could reach out the window and fish the pump out myself with the hose and turn it on and off if no one was outside so that is another option. I wish the switch could be on the head but I realize that would make it heavier, more complex, and probably less reliable. So it is probably the better design choice as-is.
Issue 2 is the hose needs to be about 1 foot longer in our setup to get out of the bucket, up the wall of the shelter, and give some room to use it. If you had the bucket right next to you the hose is the perfect length. We solved this too simply by elevating the bucket on a stool or table next to the shelter.
Issue 3 is the hose easily kinks near the head if you turn the head upside down. Easy to deal with this and and I prefer the hose to be soft and flexible as this make it easy to bend around corners and roll up to store.
Oh and I wish they included a travel bag with it. I suppose you could use the box but I found an old cloth bag that is the perfect size.
Those nitpicks aside--this is a great little unit! Easy to use, it disassembles for compact storage, and it has more power than I was expecting (about the same as a typical home shower with a water saver). Well constructed and a solid pumping motor that just works. It looks great too!

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!
