Fantastic just fantastic
it was leaking in the beginning but switched out the rubber seal and tightened down lil tighter and looks like it resolved issue but on the plus it came with locks which i didn’t think it did so this was a plus
Awesome product. Use it for everything.
Great to be able to reach up and grab a water hose for whatever. Wash off dishes, wash hands, spray mud from shoes, spray dust and dirt from my off road trailer it is attached to before opening and using it....and of course take that hot shower :-)
Use plumbers tape on the fittings. In sunny weather, it performs as advertised.
Game changer, I do a lot of camping and the RoadShower works! Fit perfectly on my 2019 Sienna minivan camper conversion, installed in 60 minutes.
A great idea but sadly has not worked well at all. Yakima tried to send us some new parts but they didn’t last. Basically it is full of water and will work for a couple quick showers (we use it after surfing) and then it just blows out air even though it still has plenty of water in the tank. Hoping we can get one that works at some point and still talking to Yakima (a year later) to try and get new replacement parts.

Sometimes if you are parked on an incline, that will prevent you from draining the tank fully. I would make sure that you are parked on a slight hill with the nozzle end down. Let me know if this helps.

Huh, this is not very common. It could be that the pressure is causing a vacuum inside of the tank, and that is why it is not draining correctly. Removing the pressure from the tank and letting some water out should fix the issue. Let me know if this works for you.

Yes we tried that and replaced the valves and the hose and still had the same problem

Oh no, okay, so Yakima prefers to handle all warranty cases. They have sent me a link with their contact information, which I will send you via email. Please let me know if there is anything else that I can do.
The Yakima RoadShower was such a great addition for helping my family on a beach trip. We like to get away from crowds and that usually means we don't always have access to showers when leaving the beach. Being able to hose our feet and kids toys off before getting back in the truck was awesome. I have used it for a few trips and like having the parking lot flex of pressurized water at the car. Every time we use it someone stops to check it out.
I don't have a roof rack on my camper shell so I just keep it in the back of the truck. Its pretty heavy so it doesnt move around. The flat bottom design helps out a lot even though its designed to go on a roof rack. I use an air compressor to get it pressurized but I have also used a bike pump but thats not preferred especially if you can mount it on your roof. I do feel that the last bit of water is hard to keep pressurized but usually one tank gets us through a couple beach visits. A built in gauge for psi or water level would be a nice touch.
I have also used this to clean off my bikes after I have been out on a soft trail. I wouldn't say this is a must to have a good trip but its pretty dang nice to have when you need to clean stuff off. Otherwise I would be cleaning sand out of my truck for months once I get back home.
I should have purchased this a long time ago. The Yakima Road shower comes in very useful when I need to wash off my dirty dog because he decided to roll around in the dirt on road trips. This will also be great when I need to wash off during camping trips. Installation was very simple but keep in mind you will need to purchase teflon tape to prevent water leaks from the hose fittings. Although you can remove it and transfer to another vehicle, this one will stay mounted on top of my Jeep. I like it so much I want to purchase another one for my truck! Directions say that you have to remove the road shower in order to drain the tank when not in use, well I came up with a solution so that I don’t have to remove the system. All you need is a long enough hose and you can siphon the water that’s left over after draining. The only request I would suggest is that this unit was lead free so that I can use it as a drinking water source. Overall this thing is amazing and fits our needs!
