Big Kahuna Portable Shower

So much wrong with this product but you can re-engineer it easily. All the new parts should be available at any hardware store and on Amazon of course.1) You can't lock the hand valve on so you can shower with two hands free and save water. Important for those of us who shower in a desert. I had to splice an inline brass value into the hose as shown in my photo.2) The shower stream is narrow, you can't adjust the spray to a wider shower pattern. Replace it with a better shower head. Mine in the photo came from a previous failed shower I bought on Amazon.3) I use a privacy tent and I rigged up a clamp to hold the head like a real shower. I use an Amazon Basics photography light stand with a 10/24 screw on top and secure a photography clamp on that. The photography clamp has adjustable direction so I have total control of the shower head height and direction.4) The blue coiled hose was difficult to work with so I bought 3/8 ID tube at a hardware store and replaced their tube and head.5) The reservoir is white and reflects light. This is stupid because you probably want a warm shower. I painted mine black and the water heats faster and better when left in the sun. Their labels peel off easily so after painting the reservoir I put one back on.6) They supply a worthless clamp for holding the power cable. Toss it and use Velcro or a larger clamp.7) The clips on the sides to hold the hose are worthless. Too small. The hose should wrap around the unit as should the power cable. Due to a cognitively challenged designer you’ll have to fix that yourself.The redesigned setup works great now! I shower and use about 2 gallons, less than half the water. Of course turn off the shower while soaping up to save water.

I had the Big Kahuna 8 gallon shower for about a year. It is a great product for just about any use. I use it on my Ford Transit Van that has been converted to an RV. I have already put in the water lines above the ceiling and below in the floor. After many hours of thinking how to complete my plumbing I came across the Big Kahuna Shower. It does everything I need it to do! It's is portable! Plug it in to your cigarette lighter and go for it! I can rinse off my paddleboard and kayak, rinse my feet and need be a full head to toe shower. Keep it in the sun and you will have a nice warm shower. Also I drilled a hole through the bottom of the kitchen counter and now use the shower to wash my dishes. My sweetheart loves it too because she can wash her hair! The nice part about the product is the service. I made one call about an issue I had and I got a call back the same day. The next day the part I needed was delivered...no charge! I recommend this shower to just about anyone out there who likes to keep things clean.

Great product and excellent customer service I had some minor issues with the shower head I called the Customer Support and I had the chance to speak with the company's CEO very nice person I discussed the issues I was having and the owner mention they are trying to fix the problem with the supplier. He shipped a new shower head the next day now my Big Kahuna Shower works perfectly. If you are a vanlife, boater, rv or if you need running water with real water pressure the Big Kahuna is the best product out there. I got the 13 gallon and I love it lots of water for the whole family when we are living the vanlife. The price is little high $200.00 for the 13 gallon but you have a quality product may be Big Kahuna will lower their price so everyone can enjoy this great product. we are taking the Big H to a cross country trip around North America and we are going to really test this thing so stay tune for more updates on this product. Stay cool with your portable shower and get out and discover this beautiful planet :).

I can't say enough good things about this shower or the company. I have had my shower for a couple years and honestly couldn't do without it. I live in a dry cabin and this is my only shower. I take it when I travel. It has power and is built so sturdy and reliable. I have used it for many things other than just showers. I had to replace the handle due to losing my heat and the cabin froze and there was a small leak, so I emailed the company. They immediately sent a replacement at no charge, zero. No questions, no shipping charges and I had a replacement in 2 days. They are the best company I have ever dealt with and the product is superior! I have had several other showers before I found this one but I have found the best of the best in this one. I highly recommend it.

I have been looking for an easy system for fresh water wash down on my boat in the Florida Keys. Installing a permanent system is costly and the water always is a little skunky because it is difficult to drain on a regular basis. I have used solar showers but when full they are heavy and difficult to store when under way. And then I saw the Big Kahuna Shower I purchased it right away. For a boater in salt water this thing is a miracle for showering off when coming out of the ocean. It is easy to fill and the lid seals like a champ. The pressure is plenty and when I arrive back to shore it is a snap to empty and store in the garage, so each voyage begins with clean fresh water not something that has been in a holding tank for months.I also purchased an alligator battery adapter as my batteries are near the rear of the boat where folks get out of the water and rinse off. Fantastic design!!
