Anyone have experience ore reviews of propane camp showers?

[jdm-v35]

Looking at the coleman, hike crew, or the mr. heater portable camp showers and was wondering if anyone can chime in with some real world experience regarding function and reliability?

I only camp from late fall to early spring when temps are below 60 during the day as I don't like camping in the heat, so it would be nice to be able to take a hot shower. I have been just taking a shower with cold water out of a gallon jug to do this so it would be nice to have the luxury of a warm shower.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Propane showers are really dangerous. Propane is extremely flammable, really cold when it comes out of the bottle and is really not an effective cleaner. Plus it smells bad.

I prefer water for all my showering needs.

Never used one myself, but I have seen reviews for the Hike Crew and Mr. Heater. I'd recommend looking around on Expedition Portal as they have a number of threads on showering options including this one with a review of the Coleman.

Thanks! i did see some reviews on youtube, but it seems like maybe just 1 or 2 per system that covers it in any type of detail. but no long term reviews i can find. ill check out expeditionportal too.
