TravelJohn Disposable Urinal Bags 28oz (6 Pack) – Road Trip Essentials for Men, Women & Kids – Odorless Leakproof Portable Urine Bags – Ideal for Camping, Emergencies & Long Car Rides (TJ1A-C)

These are perfect when camping and needing to use when a restroom is not available. The pouch folds up nicely for disposal and hands remain clean and dry until you can wash your hands after using.

Ok mechanically, this thing is brilliant. It absolutely absorbs the liquid and it does not spill out once it's in.The "opening," is shaped with the ladies in mind. Perhaps in the mind of a guy, but still. I mean it's not just a circular opening, but more of a contoured oval shape. My wife had a hard time picturing how to use it, and she forgot to practice in the shower before the trip. Once we were on the trip, she was afraid to try it out and have it not work, or not capture everything, or whatever. I was nervous myself the first time, because even though it has a 28 ounce capacity, more than a human bladder could likely hold, I was worried that I would overflow it and spill all over, but it never happened.The first night, I got out of the sleeping bag, stood up in the tent, put everything in position and let fly. By the end of the trip, I was barely kneeling in the sleeping bag to use it. It worked great every time, no spills and I never had to go out in the cold in the middle of the night.For convenience: I took these out of the box at home. Then I took each one and put it into a Ziploc bag. While camping, every time I used one, once I was done, I would seal it back in the Ziploc bag. No fuss, no muss, no unfortunate aromas.I really like these, and I have a feeling that the worse the weather is, the more I would like them. It's a luxury item for sure, but some luxuries are worth it. Ladies, give this a try, and make sure you practice at home first. I'd feel bad for you to have to walk off by yourself behind some rock in the middle of the night just cause you couldn't figure this out while I sleep nice and comfy in my sleeping bag. I would sleep like a baby, but I would feel bad the next morning when you told me about it. Well, I'd at least pretend to feel bad, while quite possibly smirking on the inside.

Holy smokes, there are not enough good things to say about these fantastic contraptions. For the first time in my life I peed standing up. I was in heaven. I am back home from a trip where I used these for the first time and couldn't wait to write my review.There I was out on a hike in a national park. I had to go. Time to find a private space in the woods. Found a secluded tree, got this baby out, pressed it up against me and did my business. WOW!!! No spillage, no problems, no nothing but pee in a bag. Gelled instantly. I was initially worried that the cup was too narrow and wouldn't fully cover, but it was perfectly sized.I got two uses out of one bag. Maybe it could have held more but I only had to go twice so I didn't check to see how full it was. Although, I probably would have used a fresh one if I had to go a third time so as to not worry about any possible overflow.I brought a ziploc bag to put this in after use as well as for my used toilet paper and wipes. Kept everything clean and tidy in my backpack. No urine smell at all. Once I was back to civilization, I simply tossed the ziploc into the trash. Done.I will never be without one of these in my purse EVER again. I would rather use a TravelJohn than squatting over some foul toilet in a public restroom. I am hooked on these and will be buying more so I can always have plenty on hand for whenever, wherever.

Recommended by Wirecutter. I haven’t tried it yet but visibly the cup seems a smidge more narrow than perhaps it should be. Still, that keeps it more packable.

This really is an outstanding product and easy to rate at 5 stars. Use this device as a portable urinal for potty breaks when a toilet is not available, sitting or standing, for men, women, or children. Sanitary, leakproof, and completely disposable. Use for disaster preparedness at home, car trips, camping, backpacking, sporting events, on the boat, days at the beach... anywhere. Though purposely meant for urine, this also makes for a perfect airsick/seasick/carsick bag. Small, light, packabe, relatively inexpensive, and discreet, these are super handy to have in your glovebox, camp kit, or otherwise nearby. Here are the main points of my review based on my family's use:* Convenient - Ever been on a road trip miles from nowhere when the tiny, urgent voice in the back seat says "Daddy, I have to go pee pee?" Funnily, my daughter only mentions this when she's got about 30 seconds of restraint left. Well, this product is a lifesaver for that particular situation. If ever you or a loved one has had to go - RIGHT NOW - this is the product you want in your glovebox, kit, or purse. What it is: Basically a sturdy, slender leakproof plastic bag containing a super-absorbent gel that instantly soaks up, retains, and neutralizes liquid. It holds a respectable 28 ounces, which ought to be enough to give most anyone relief.* Unisex - An excellent and smart feature is an anatomically-shaped piece at the top of the bag that allows ladies and girls to use this while standing. My wife has attested that this feature is huge in the convenience department, and my daughter mostly just got a kick out of the novelty of it. As both have reported, the device works well and keeps the liquid from going where it is not wanted. For men and boys, it's used the usual way: while standing.* Versatile - So long as you have the barest modicum of privacy (in the shade of an open car door, tree, bush, etc.) you can use this anywhere. Is the nearest bathroom 40 miles away? No problem. Are you in an area that doesn't permit cat holes? (eg: ecologically sensitive areas in the backcountry) No problem. Is the only toilet accessible to you such a nightmare that you don't even want to go near the thing? No problem. This device is a sure kidney-saver when you really have to go, but just can't wait to get to the nearest (acceptable) toilet. As mentioned, this also works as an excellent motion sickness bag.* Sanitary and responsible - I regret to admit there have been times in my life that I've gone places I shouldn't have, because I didn't have an option. This device gives you the option so you can be responsible about taking the call of nature. It allows you not to create a mess, as the bag holds everything you pour into it. (up to 28 ounces) It allows you to not leave your puddle where it oughtn't be; this is especially important in the back country as so many streams are fouled by increasing numbers of hikers and backpackers relieving themselves near or (God forbid) in the water. When you are done using this device, just take it with you until the nearest trash can and toss it in. That's it!* Disaster preparedness - I live in earthquake country and it is a very real concern and possibility that we'll lose water (and therefore the toilet) in the event of a major earthquake. These disposable urinals are part of my emergency kit so we can keep things sanitary for days or weeks if need be. After all, sanitation would go downhill fast if we had to make do for a week without proper facilities. (I prefer Wag Bags for non-liquid sanitary events)* Value - How much is convenience worth when you really, truly have to go... Right Now? I think that for just under two bucks each, these represent fair value. Naturally, I'd love it if they were cheaper... but I've got significant peace of mind knowing that former road trip/camping call of nature emergencies are easily handled with these, and that I can take care of them in a sanitary, responsible way.For those who also want to prepare for the less common but just as critical non-liquid call of nature emergencies, I recommend Wag Bags, which I find excellent. For the liquid variety, these TravelJohn disposable urinals are outstanding. They work well and they are sanitary and responsible. They are super for women and girls, as they provide a dignified, standing option. Highly recommended for anyone who camps, backpacks in sensitive areas, goes on long road trips, has a boat, or may ever find themselves a little too far away from a useable toilet. Great product!
