SHEWEE Extreme Female Urinal – UK Made Reusable Stand to Pee Funnel – Travel Essential, Camping Accessories, Festival Female Urination Device

Definitely a little bit of a learning curve (I found out the hard way). Do what they say and practice a couple times in your shower. But once you get it, this is a game changer. No more squatting in the woods and risking exposure to poison oak, nettles, bull ants, or having your rear end seen by others. It's a little odd seeing yourself do this the first time while dressed, but that, too, will pass. Use this, and keep your Kula cloth close by for drips. Happy trails!

Oh. My. Gosh. This is the best thing ever. I ordered both this and a GoGirl to try them out and see which I liked better for a potential Army training opportunity that would have me taking a pee on the side of a windy, frigid mountain in Alaska. Because I don't like the idea of having my behind hanging out in negative temperatures, I started to do some research which led me to these two products. I actually like both very much, however, the Shewee has a bit of an edge on the competition and it was my choice accessory during an 18-day training exercise with my unit at NTC at Ft. Irwin, CA. And for some context, I was the only female on a 3-man team constantly going out to support the maneuver/combat arms units which are exclusively male.Here are some of the things I like best about this particular model:1. Don't be fooled by how small it seems. It's the perfect size to catch and redistribute your stream. I was skeptic, but after a test run, I was pleasantly surprised.2. It's solid. The GoGirl is cool and all, but when it comes down to it, I prefer the solid structure that I know is not going to collapse in my pants or something resulting in me being covered in my own urine. Also, with the solid structure I can sort of "scrape" (it's really not as bad as that words sounds...) any drippiness away from me and be surprisingly dry.3. The extender is amazing! I read a lot of reviews and even discussed this with my fellow female soldiers and the extender is so worth it! I think without it, I would have got my toes a few times unfortunately. With the extender I have a much better range.4. The case. The fact that it comes with a case that I don't have to fiddle with to get the Shewee into and closed up properly was sweet. Plus it just looks like a run-of-the mill hygiene case or eyeglass case of some sort so it doesn't draw any undue attention. It's very compact and fit in my cargo pocket very well. Also prior to my mini-vacation with the Army, it fit very well in the center console of my truck without taking up any unnecessary space or causing any of my other usual stuff to fit. To be fair, my center console is pretty roomy...I drive a Silverado... But, hey, now I'm not compensating anymore! When it wasn't in my pocket, I carried it in a small pouch on the outside of my CamelBak.Now, with all the good stuff, here are a few of the cons I've discovered so far:1. Do NOT laugh while trying to use this thing or you will absolutely break the seal you hopefully created and totally recreate that scene from Billy Madison only no one is going to throw water at their crotch and proclaim that peeing your pants is cool...sorry. Unfortunately I learned this from experience on the Parks HWY about 100 miles from Anchorage, AK on an impromptu road trip. My boyfriend wanted to see me put this thing to use and he came over and was poking fun at me. All of a sudden I felt very warm which was odd on a snow-covered road in Alaska in November... At least I was pretty well hydrated so the last stretch of the trip wasn't unpleasant to the nose...2. This one is kind of situationally dependent. The case can get pretty pungent. Particularly if you are in a situation where you have no running water, or even any streams or anything to give it a little dip and rinse. The Mojave desert wasn't very kind in that regard for those 18 days. I wiped the Shewee itself and the inside of the case every few days or so with a baby wipe and that kept it ok, but it could get bad. Partly because no matter how hard you shake this thing, there's going to be a little bit of moisture still on it and then it pools at the bottom of the case and basically just stagnates. One day, I opened it while standing outside the passenger side of the HMMWV joking with my guys about my "ladyd*ck" and my buddy in the driver's seat immediately reacted with "Wow. That smells like straight ammonia all the way over here." Once out of the box, I shook up a capful of bleach and some warm water inside the case with the Shewee inside and that seemed to do the trick that baby wipes just could not.Bottom line: This thing is amazing! And Shewee should seriously consider renaming it to "ladyd*ck" because it's super catchy and builds excellent rapport when you're stuck out there with just the guys. In all seriousness though, since I doubt that will ever happen, this should be a mandatory item for all female soldiers (it's on the Ranger packing list for the ladies already!) and if you're an outdoorsy lady or you like roadtrips, this will come in very handy! Shoot, even if you're not, the extender is pretty pliable and I know now that I'm a whizz (pun indeed intended) at this thing, I hope to cross peeing my name in the snow off my bucket list very soon!Don't waste time, add it to your cart immediately!

Okay, so I gave everything a 5 star, but overall rating it a 4 star. Heres why;I work in the oilfield. Bathrooms range from working flushable toilets to find yourself a bush. Last winter, the portajohn (flush toilets) on a site I was working at were broken down for two weeks. There were no porta potties for me to use, and I was stuck on site for up to 18 hours at a time. With being one of two women on location, squatting isnt really an option with 30 or so men, and vehicles passing by all the time. Also, -30°f weather doesnt really feel all that great when kissing the skin in the middle of a blizzard. I also developed kidney stones from holding my bladder for long periods of time and quite frankly, I'd rather not ever experience that pain ever again. So I needed something that will enable me to just go wherever I can get a little privacy.I just got this today and I was surprised at how small it actually is. I was thinking it was going to be a lot bigger, but considering the area it goes to, it makes sense that it the size that it is. I've tested it twice, so far. The first time I admit was a little messy, mainly because I'm pee shy, and this new device made me feel awkward and I couldnt stop laughing about the fact that I was actually trying to pee standing up. I tried it with my pants on, and it worked for what little I could squeeze out, but it was still messy as it spilled a little on my underwear. A few hours later, my bladder was considerably much fuller than the first attempt and I decided to give it another go. I got it situated and just let 'er rip. I was peeing like a dude, but I also had no idea where to aim in the toilet to prevent splash so that was pretty gross. But it worked! This time, I didnt spill in my undies, but I felt gross because it leaves you feeling dirty afterwards since you cant really wipe yourself. So that's why i gave it 4 stars, but I'm sure that a wet wipe could fix that if you take them with you.To clean it, I used a bit of diluted dish soap and rinsed it with hot water (both things I have available at work) and allowed it to air dry before putting it away in its tooth brush holder-like container. Easy peasy.I hope I dont need to use this while out on location, but I'm happy I have it now just incase I do need to go.

Works perfectly, no leakage. Positioning is key. There are several great Youtube videos that are very helpful in terms of how to position the Shewee to avoid leakage. Highly recommend.
