Rated 2 out of 5 by willy64 Close, but not quite I tried it, and returned it.. Several things wrong.. First, you cannot turn off the water while the burner is heating.. With an outdoor shower, I shut off the water while I soap up, to save hot water... Second, the pump is not adequate.. It would not pump water from the ground to my head height.. Also, very low volume at even four feet.. I would like a better pump, with 12 vdc power optional, and the ability to shut off the water during the shower.. The heater worked fine...W... 10/14/2007
Rated 1 out of 5 by THEVulture GARBAGE!! I bought this for use in Florida in my hunting camp, the product is GARBAGE!! You BARELY get any water flow, and the water is NOT "Hot" even with the negligable flow! I bought a "Tankless" heater from an RV store for about 20 bucks more and was VERY satisfied with that one, hooked it to my campers water system and can get SCALDING hot water in my kitchen sink if I want it! DO NOT BUY THE ZODI you will be disappointed if you want anything close to a "Shower" 12/12/2010
Rated 3 out of 5 by eagleback its better than a spit shower Its O.K. But thats all, if the water is real cold it wont heat it to the temp that you need to be comfortable, and that can be a problem for some. but if the water is 65 or 70 deg in the bucket that you are pumping from it dose o.k. it will not work if you are thinking of hooking it up to a garden hose the water coming out of the hose is too cold for the heater to heat, the pump works good as long as the batterys are new, the propane tanks seem to last awile, overall its a shower when one is not avaliable. 05/14/2009
Rated 1 out of 5 by PointOfFailure Poorly made product As is so common these days, this product cuts corners in many key areas. For one, the battery compartment has a clip on lid that is supposed to remain under pressure at all times to seal water out. Well, the hinge for that lid is made out of . . . plastic, about as thick as a credit card where it attaches to the body and lid. Definitely the weakest point of failure. Needless to say, it didn't last long. Once it broke, water got into the compartment and the batteries quickly rusted. Not a good deal. The hoses are also put on with cheap hose clamps that can't be adjusted like a normal hose clamp. I found this out when a hole formed in one of the hoses from the heat of the water and I had to cut the hose down and try to re-engineer the clamp just to finish my shower. Shower pressure is like a constant stream of dripping water from multiple holes. Getting shampoo out of your hair is not easy. I had to fill a cup up repeatedly and dump it on my head. Lastly, the water temperature can vary greatly by how deep the pump is in the water. Unfortunately, there isn't any clamp or anything to keep it down in the water. Perhaps I am being to critical of a product that is 'better than nothing', but it has a very poor weakest point of failure. I'd look for something a little more durable. 06/09/2008
