Yes & Yes!!!

Used one for years. Can be a bit hit or miss in the UK. Overcast days merely warm the water but if you get a real belting hot day then be careful because the water will be hot enough to take the skin off your back.

I find that the standard rose on the showers is useless. I put the water from mine into a cheap garden pressure sprayer.

Hi Mose,
The sun will warm up your bag, enough for one shower. Takes a couple of hours, baggsies mine first. You can put the kettle on for anyone else who needs one.

 - or buy two or more solar shower bags?  They're pretty cheap if you hunt around.

While I think of it, does anyone have any idea how long these things last? I seem to have had mine for at least 7 years.

This seems like a fab idea to finally get some wild camping under my belt!

What kind of price are these solar showers?

about £6.50 according to Towsure

What do you hang them on though if no trees around ? and how do you lift them when full of water as they're so heavy? Mine gets used for washing up water when at rallies.
