 another rip off August 2, 2008

I also ordered the deluxe model, or so I thought. It took so long to get here that I contacted Amazon and Fogdog and cancelled. My cancellation was confirmed and then the ordered still was shipped. I also got the basic trash bag to hang from a tree not the nice tent pictured. It will be returned ASAP. I ordered the deluxe shower from Texsport directly, received it in 4 days and absolutely love it. We have very nice hot showers which made camping even better! I am ordering two 2 1/2 gallon bags to use instead of the 5 gallon. We never needed that much water for two showers and a smaller bag will be easier to get up onto the hook. We love the deluxe model but that other thing is just a cheap tarp like we used to use years ago. Watch for bait and switch from Fogdog. I do see now that the ad on Amazon has changed and shows the deluxe model for 69.99 and the basic is actually down to 9.97 (still too much).

The seller in my case was Fogdog, just in case sellers change. Trust the other reviewers they do not ship what you order. The shelter pictured is a nice big free standing green and grey shelter with a fly. The shelter you get is a piece of black plastic you hang from a tree that you can buy for $5 at the hardware store. I was planning on using this on an upcoming trip so basically I was counting on this item. This seller has let others down as well I would avoid them.
This is a rip off seller or someone with poor inventory practices. I'll edeit my review to reflect how well their return policy works. I had to give one star because it will not let me give zero.........
Edit 8/16/08 - I returned the product at a cost of $7.73. They only credited me the price. They did not credit me the $17.89 shipping and handling that they charged me nor the $7.73 it cost me to ship the wrong item back. In other words it cost me $23.22 for their error.
Do not buy anything from Fogdog.

I think the shower worked pretty well. The water definitely heats up in when you place the bag in the sun. The frame is easy to put up and take down, and goes back in the bag too which is rare.
Here's the down sides: The frame is a bit flimsy when you hang a full 5 gallon bag from the top. The frame tweaked to one side and had a hard time standing up because of the weight. Once the bag drained some, it was better. We had it set up on slightly uneven ground so this may not be a problem if you can find level ground to put it up on.
Also, the hose has a habit of coming off of the bag. A simple hose clamp or tie wrap would fix this, but even better is to find a better piece of hose (the supplied hose kinks easily stopping all water flow). Get a real hose and a clamp, and no more problems.
Overall I think its worth the money, but just needs a couple of small improvements.

I suggest setting up before using. The tent is big enough for two.
I did not like the floor - we had a smaller shelter w/ an attached floor that had a mesh barrier. This one is open so I am a little concerned about critter's getting in. Overall it seem's like a nice shower - but it won't be used until may 23' 08
