Summary: Good Little Water Heater, With Manageable Issues
Comment: It's a pretty good little water heater. It has a few issues, but nothing awful. First off, I wouldn't exactly call it a "shower" in any kind of water-pressure sense.

It works like this - You put the pump end in your water source. It would be best if that were a container (as opposed to a lake or stream). Here's why - Unless you have the water source on-level or above the output nozzle, the pressure is next to nothing. (Seriously.) However, with your water source above the shower head, the pressure is okay - similar to one of those light handle sprayers on a kitchen sink. Nothing amazing, but it does the job.

The heating unit sits on top of your 1lb propane canister, which sits in an included base. I expected it to be a kind of tippy, but it's not bad. Still, it wouldn't surprise me if I knocked the thing over via the movement of the stiff hose. The unit increases the water temp 30 to 40 degrees, so one great suggestion is putting both the intake and the output into a container together - recycling the water until it is warm enough for you.

That said, it works, it is affordable, and Zodi has a pretty good name. One of the reasons that I chose this one over the Coleman is that this one takes 4 D-Cell batteries to run the pump, rather than Coleman's rechargeable internal battery.

Summary: Nothng better than a hot shower!
Comment: This Zodi Hot Tap travel shower is a great way to make nice hot showers out in the wilderness. The water can also be used for cleaning dishes. I went with the single burner as the weather here rarely gets cold enough to use the double burner model. If you expect the input water to be chilly get the double burner model. On cool mornings here I simply recycle the water letting the hot water warm the cold input water until there is a batch ready to go. The electric pump should not be shut off while the burner is running so you simply recycle the water back into the source tub while you lather up. If you like to dry camp out of the back of your SUV or truck this is a really nice comfort. It would also make a nice emergency shower for places that might lose city water.
