I use it for my daughter on life support who is bed ridden, and has (and wants to keep) her long hair. I had first used this product just about 3 years ago during a stay in a hospital when my daughter first became ventillator dependant and bed ridden. I was truly blessed by the nursing staff that gave me the information as to who made/sold the one they had, for I knew after using it, that I couldn't do without it. I/We love that she can enjoy the feeling of a truly clean head. I also have the optional shower bag (which I also purchased through Allegro)which I hang on our I.V. pole near her bed which sprays clean water through gravity drop. I use a shower curtain under the hair washer and her, so if any water is to splash out of the EZ-SHAMPOO where her neck and shoulders lay, the bed won't get wet. It is the next best thing to a real bath/shower hair washing. For a truly bed ridden person, I recommend it HIGHLY.

It should tell you when ordering that you need a professional pump to inflate it otherwise there is no way you will blow it up. The hand pump didn't work at all, maybe if I had a healthy young man around but I didn't. I was so excited to get it and use it for my mom and then was unable to b/c I was unable to inflate it. Very disappointing and saddening.
