Advanced Elements Summer Shower 3 Gallon
Rating:
Price at Time of Rating: $19
- With its durable, premium quality 4 layer construction, this 3 gallon solar shower is a great to have with you while you spend the day at the beach, hiking, camping, fishing, or sailing.
- The comfortable wide handle grip and extra large filling valve make filling and transporting water easy.
- You save valuable water with the easy to use on/off shower head.
- This one even includes a water temperature gauge, a reflective mirror, and a convenient pocket for soap and shampoo.
- We prefer the 3 gallon size because hoisting 5 gallons of water that weighs 40 pounds isn’t that fun at the end of a long hike.
- If you feel that you need more water, we suggest buying two 3 gallon bags instead of one 5 gallon.

Sea to Summit Pocket Shower
Rating:
Price at Time of Rating: $33
- This lightweight bag only weighs 4.25 ounces, but with the light weight, you sacrifice some features found on our higher rated showers.
- It holds a little over 2.5 gallons, so you should get about 7 minutes of shower time.
- If you’re packing stuff in on your back, the pocket shower can double as a regular dry sack to haul your clothes or sleeping bag.
