Outdoor Shower in a Box?!? RINSEKIT PRO...and some CONS

[@pmedic523]

I love it when you call out companies on their BS.

[@raxnn]

notice how as soon as he turns the cap to check the reservoir it loses pressure? that's because this man is a retard.

[@professionalpiercer]

Did a test with this on mist setting. Lasted 19 minutes and 20 seconds from full to empty. Noticed that it started to bog out with .5 gallons left in the tank. It would come out, but stuttering.

[@halcarmody2946]

They could reduce the sound by adding some foam, which would add minimal weight. Times being off could leave someone soaped up needing to rinse off with cold water. If I were them, I would also give an option for an external water bladder which could be larger than 3.5 gallons if they are short on their time.

[@godrulesme8619]

Great job on this video. Great pros and cons...thank you!!!

[@GY6outdoors]

Thank you

[@Chizztv]

This sucks cause I just bought this And seeing this review broke my heart. I’m glad you gave an honest review. I need it for cleaning my Oru kayak and showering at times as well. i’m gonna run some test my self as well

[@GY6outdoors]

Sorry to be barer of bad news, but test for yourself and let me know the results

[@CaliVapor]

It’s a good thing the gallons per minute is higher.. idk how y’all see it as a drawback when it’s actually OP.. wish it were an attachment for a 5 gal bucket or a insulated 3.5 gal bucket for hot water storage type of benefit

[@dougscott188]

I picked one up at Costco for $150 to spray off small balcony at my apartment because we do not have an outdoor faucet and going to use it with my motorcycle and other light duty.

[@GY6outdoors]

How much time do you get out of the water tank before it's empty? Curious if it was similar to mine. time it for me would you, fill it up, and hold down the sprayer, when water stops, how long was it?

[@professionalpiercer]

It lasted 2 minutes and 41 seconds from full to .5 gallons left before stuttering and eventually struggling to do anything. A whole minute less than what you got in the video.

[@travisevans531]

Costco just dropped down to $119, I picked one up.

[@AutumnAspens68]

Our Costco had one left for $80 bucks! Wife picked it up an hour ago!

[@knevil753]

my local costo just had it for $60! like a fool i waited a day and they took them off the shelves. checked another costco and had it for 119. i have a feeling costcos will have them at $60 again any day now; before they rack em for the season

[@derek9063]

Great review!

[@mikeymike3760]

After seeing the entire video it makes sense why these are on sale for 60 bucks at Costco right now.

[@GY6outdoors]

Yeah. They still haven’t changed their spec info on their website either. I have tons of people writing me saying the same issues.

[@davidsawmandave8731]

Also the instructions are real vague, when u use wall charger , will the light turn green ? The gauge is reading over 12 v but the wall jack is still red

[@GY6outdoors]

Sure power keeps it going just fine

[@awsomedude9111]

I was thinking having a hand pump system would have been better than battery powered.

[@aa999xyz]

wouldn't it be nice if you could use the pump to fill it?

[@sandymckee8917]

That is BS for their numbers being so off for something so expensive! Thank you for the thorough review & a glance at your six-pack! 🙃

[@GY6outdoors]

Glad the video was helpful. Yeah too often these companies get away with this type of horse 💩

They still havent changed the info on the web page as of today i just looked it up, july 11 2023

[@GY6outdoors]

Send them a email and complain.

[@shaggy2Djr]

Alright sounds like a plan they claimed in one bullet point that it would last 7:30 on center mode. Also just want to say i love everything you put out and have been watching for awhile now, youre one of the few content creators i can get my dad to sit through and watch all your videos on both channels! Keep up the good work boss man!

[@GY6outdoors]

Wow I’m not surprised…it’s shame to see a company blatantly lying to their customers. It’s not a hard thing to figure out. I’m shocked more people aren’t bitching about it. Wow. That is a quality compliment, I’m honored to hear that. Thank you. Keep spreading the work of my content, it’s the best way to allow me to keep doing what I do!

[@raxnn]

@@GY6outdoors bruh.... i think you need to retest this and this time during the testing don't turn the cap off the resivoir. you know that keeps it pressurized right?

[@LivingCoast2Coast]

We were gifted one of these. Using for the first time this week.

[@GY6outdoors]

What was your experience?

Can you buy them for 220v we have that in Europe ?

[@GY6outdoors]

Just need an adaptor

[@troycoffey2546]

I don't think they're talking about the amount of water... continuous... I think they are talking about battery life, when talking about numbers. So, I think if you refilled it, you could get two solid showers at 3.5 minutes each... continuous spray! But, yes... you'd have to refill it after the first shower.

[@raxnn]

@@partyofyoung also, I own one of these units. And the water on center setting can last 7 mins. The guy in the video while testing literally screwed the cap of during the video to check the reservoir not realising that the cap is what holds the pressure. He's a meat head.

[@GY6outdoors]

Guy above(@Raxnn) has clearly been comment bombing this video, for what reason and who actually is behind the account I don't know...but let me make one thing very clear, the "Cap" doesn't cause the pressure to go up or down, you can have a hose in the reservoir for continuous water input, the water pressure comes from the pump LOL. Also the numbers are not about the battery ability, the battery lasts for a VERY LONG TIME, I love it's battery. He is clearly trying to stand up for the company "CORRECT NUMBERS" almost like he is working for the company LOL(Who still refuses to update their numbers so their potential customers truly know what they are buying🤦🏻‍♂️). As it sits, I've tried timing this unit using all variations of Spray settings, and the numbers only shift by a VERY SMALL %...so NOPE, spray settings do not cause any difference that really matters. Better luck next time @Raxnn 😂

[@mustardfj40]

Nice! but the Yakima will outlast this, all gaskets will fail with age so you replace them as needed. Beside this is far from cheap

[@GY6outdoors]

We shall see

Just got 1 today at Costco, havent tested yet , got it for cleaning off our windshield on a side x side , lots of mud riding west va. Trails

[@remiechan]

@@davidsawmandave8731 it’s going to come in real handy with all the mud. I’m digging mine camping n cleaning my paddle boards from all the sand

[@hallieoop1]

Probably 5 to 6 min of battery time. Not water time

[@toastytalks6348]

No the battery lasts much longer then that I just think the company hyped up a product in the best conditions possible.

[@GY6outdoors]

@ToastyTalks6348 Correct!

[@GY6outdoors]

No the battery is amazing on this unit, I love it, the amount of time you get to shower while using this unit is the issue. Cap doesn't cause the pressure, it's pressurized by the internal pump, it just pumps out all the water far faster than their numbers are stating.

[@duane4972]

There are other units that heat the water and pump it for a shower for less than $200 ! Do your research and you will find them.

[@duane4972]

I use a garden pump up sprayer, heat water on my stove and take my shower, less than $20 total investment.

[@GY6outdoors]

Oh I know, but this is a outdoor product and reviewing things like this, no matter how over priced it is, still deserves a review for those looking to buy it.

[@kratino]

$140.99 at Costco right now. 5/19/24.

[@GY6outdoors]

Yeah I saw that

[@melvingoldsmith5175]

The system is pressurized and the second you unscrewed the cap in the middle of the test to see how much water was left it "ran out of water". Then you started it back up with the top unscrewed and we could see/hear the pump fighting to deliver water but with no pressure. Looks like user error from my point of view.

[@GY6outdoors]

It’s not pressurized lol you can have a hose filling the reservoir while it pumps. Lol

[@wanderingcantos]

Checking Mar/2024, they removed most of the numbers but still have it stated to be 6:30 continuously on Center under Product Features

I just picked one up for $110 at Costco. Filled it up all the way and then put the nozzle on shower and used the part on the handle that keeps it open instead of having to hold the handle itself open. Doing this it was still running at 8 minutes but was sputtering here and there and it still had 1/4 tank of water but the pressure was horrible. Started out ok but it cycles on and off and doesn’t spray a steady stream. Pump starts pulsating after 3-4 minutes. The biggest problem with this kit in my opinion is there is no way to completely drain this. That makes me worry that the water will start turning slimy then moldy. So I think I’ll return it.

[@GEAUXFRUGAL]

Started over 9 years ago.

[@GY6outdoors]

What did?

[@maddawgnoll]

$300 is too much for that unit. There's nothing innovated enough to justify that price. It's basically a bucket, a battery, and a pump. Even if the numbers were correct, I still feel the value isn't there.

[@GY6outdoors]

Yes it’s VERY expensive…but convenience trumps ingenuity for most people now a days sadly. This whole shower system would be straight forward to build, but convenience once again wins out for most

[@maddawgnoll]

@GY6outdoors ya it could be built fairly easy. Might not have such a nice finished package though. I've been off grid for 2½ years now and I look at things so much different than I used to. Not to mention 60 mile trip just to go get some hardware. So improvising has become a big part of the way I see things

[@GY6outdoors]

100% understand that struggle. I’ve been living out of an RV for over 3 years now

@@GY6outdoors you are a moron man. do you think that the unit would be pressurised still while you are checking the reservoir mid testing? no wonder you lost pressure after turning the cap off. give me a break man. use your head for once.
