Good product, but the manufacturer knowingly deceives the consumer with regard to the capacity of this product Jul 13, 2008
By Katharine Hyde The only reason I didn't see the review before mine is because I had read the reviews for the 2.5 and 5 gallon versions and didn't feel I needed to reference the reviews for this "3 gallon" shower. I wish I had so I would have seen how this really isn't a 3 gallon bag - it has the same capacity as the 2.5 gallon bag, so save yourself a few dollars and get that one instead - seriously. Even the box itself says that the 2.5 and 3 gallon versions have a capacity of 9.5 liters. It would cost me more to send it back and get the 2.5 gallon version, so I am keeping it.
That being said, I was pleased with the quality of this product. I was skeptical that the shower head would be strong enough to really rinse my hair thoroughly, but it really did a great job. It heated up in a very reasonable amount of time and retained the heat for a while when removed from the sunlight. The material has been durable thus far and should last if treated with care. If the capacity wasn't deceptive I would have given this one more star.
UPDATE: July 2011. My solar shower finally sprung a slow leak this past weekend and I unfortunately had to get rid of it. The leak was where the hose connects to the bag which happens to be the weakest/least durable part of the bag. It gave me 3 solid years of use with well over 100 days worth of service. I would not hesitate to purchase this brand of solar shower again and hope that the manufacturer has actually made this a true 3 gallon bag by now.

good product Sep 04, 2008
By Ken W. I replaced my retired and worn out Solar Shower with this unit. It does its job as expected. The clear plastic tube came with a mild kink, which may impede water flow. The shower head works well. Overall fit and finish are good. It heats water well. It is superior to a simple black water sack in its ability to heat up with passive solar radiation. The screw-on filler cap, accessory pocket, mirror, and thermometer are nice additions. The handle is comfortable to carry. I prefer this size to larger capacity units, as they get heavy pretty quickly at 8 pounds per gallon. Overall, this is a good product, priced reasonably.

Solar Shower Jul 03, 2007
By Susan B. Louis This solar shower is great - the right size (not too heavy to hang) and the "shower head" works well. It heats up relatively fast and I am very pleased with this purchase.

Great shower bag! Oct 22, 2009
By clreindeer We used these for eleven days in the Black Rock Desert last year during Burning Man. I've used other bags before and the Advanced Elements Summer Shower is hands down the best. Sturdy, well constructed and heats fast. The nozzle is very easy to operate and functions perfectly to turn on and off with ease. Hanger is heavy duty and I'm not worried about it breaking. The three gallon size is perfect for a nice shower and hair wash, even with long hair. I highly recommend this product.

Tiniest 3 gallons you'll ever see Sep 01, 2009
By Global Listener This is a nice 1-person shower - but, in fact, it only holds 2 gallons, not three. But that's not a bad thing, as a compact shower with a lot of water is hard to hang, so small is beautiful, if you can overlook the gross mislabeling.
