Medipaq Portable Urinal – 1.2L Urine Bottles Male & Female Urinal – Pee Bottle for Men – Travel Urine Bottles - Army Green

When you're a middle-aged man, camping (to visit the superb Great Dorset Steam Fair), and like a couple/three beers in the evening, then the prospect of emerging from a warm sleeping bag, getting dressed, tramping over to the "facilities" in the damp September night, then reversing the above and trying to get back to sleep... ...two or three times a night, is not an enticing prospect. Enter this superb device, with its wide spout and screw cap, and the problem is solved! You can roll out of your sleeping bag, do the necessary, and go back to sleep, almost without waking up (I did say almost). You just have to mentally ignore the noise, because thoughts of neighbouring tent occupants hearing what's going on, and the relaxation of the appropriate muscles, do not go well together!The only downside is the opaque red plastic it is made from, as it is impossible to see how full it is, and you have to screw the cap on before putting it down, to ensure no spillage. I bought three of these, so I did not have to risk a second go into one receptacle. (Jasper Carrott's story of having a medical springs to mind).On a practical note, just make sure they are watertight (preferably using water). The end of the spout can have moulding flash still attached and, if present, this needs careful cutting off. Also, I felt that the inside edge of the spout was a little sharp, so I carefully sanded the sharpness off on my ones. But that's probably just me.All in all, these are great.PS. For a female view you'll have to read elsewhere. I have no information.

Brilliant! Works well, no leaks, great size for a few uses if needs be. I have one in my campervan and use when needed. Does everything you need of it. Lid goes on tight on too if you can't empty it yet. Very easy to use. Highly recommend

I bought this bottle as a travelling bottle for my client ( I'm a carer for someone with suprapubic catheter) and liked the fact it's not sea through bottle, so when he is out and about and we need to empty his leg bag we don't necessarily show off around. From that point is great.Downside is the lid is not getting easy to the right place to seal it properly, for me always took few attempts and staring at the bottle to get it right so it doesn't leak around the van until we find the toilet facilities to empty it.As we are using it almost daily cleaning up is not as straight forward like with other one for home use, where you fill the bottle, chack in cleaning tablet and leave over night to disinfect. As the bottle does not stand straight you can't really fill it up to the top, we'll at least we didn't risk if we don't get the lid right it will leak all over the bathroom over night, so takes a bit bleaching it, rinsing etc.But definitely good for occasional use etc and also decent value for money. I would not want to discourage anyone from buying it, just pointing out that for someone who use it daily and is always in the rush you don't really have the time attempting to get the lid right in place while people around you watching what you are doing etc and also cleaning it quickly after coming home while the client waits you to leave his room / bathroom so he can go to sleep..

Very good

Why did you choose this product over others?:prefect

I have multiple copies of this item bought over the years. The newer ones seem to have a different insert in the lid and some seem to leak a little no matter how tightly you do the lid up.Apart from that it is still a good product. Obviously, if you don't close it properly in the middle of the night, that's not the product's fault. Beware of cross-threading

As described not used yet so can't rate further

Item needs getting the hang of to use.
