Andy Handy Water Dispenser

  Superb little bit of kit with a bit of work to add to the bottom of a dry bag. It makes a superb quick hand wash system when I’m doing fish processing demonstrations. I was a little surprised that the main body is plastic not metal although it makes it nice a light when carrying out and about.

  It's a simple but effective piece of kit, it has been used in the field on expeditions and in the work place on construction sites.

  Excellent price of kit if a little expensive for a bit of plastic. However not being metal makes it very lightweight and you're more likely to carry it.

  Ingenious. Brilliant for good camp hygiene and no messing with dirty bowls of water.

  Awesome. It was quite expensive for what it is considering multiple currency conversions. Euro to GBP to AUD, I'm in Australia and this was the only place I could find that delivers here. It took several weeks to get here and to be honest it was a bit underwhelming to look at it as it is small and made of plastic. However it performs well, packs up small and perfect dispenser for washing hands. It is a good investment and well worthwhile. I installed in a drybag and mounted on my tent post with bucket under. You never need worry about dirty hands now whilst camping which is particularly good for cooking. The mechanism is fail safe as long as clean water is used and intuitive to use with a little tap up to release water. I particularly like the amount of water dispensed. It is sufficient and helps conserve water. I usually camp in places where you have to bring your own so I think this is something anyone that is in a similar situation would appreciate, be it car camping, hiking, or something in between. Installation was easy. I found you need to hold the pin down when installing to make it work. I found this to be one of my favourite pieces of kit. Clean hands are something we take for granted but something we quickly notice is missing when we are out and it's hard to do. I recommend this device for anyone that has to bring their own water and is space and weight conscious. Would also be good for sheds with no water installed in a bucket. Thanks Woodlore team for a great unique product.

  14mm hole,14mm hole. That was the only part of the instructions I could understand and as it turned out the only part I needed. Like previous reviewers I was a little nervous about cutting a hole in a perfectly serviceable dry bag a bit like jumping out of a perfectly serviceable aircraft but some things need to be done. I held the dry bag over the end of a wooden rolling pin and used a dry marker lid, which happened to be exactly 14mm diameter, I drew and then cut out a hole with a scalpel. The assembly is then just plumbing and there you have a perfect hand washing, emergency eye wash, mini shower to have around camp. Brilliant.

  I saw this item in your new book. Although it is self explanatory, the instructions on the packaging are not in English. I fitted it to a bucket and also purchased a dry sack to use on small camps. We plan to use it when we return to face to face scouting as a hand washing facility to COVID 19 risk assessment.

  Follow the instructions and you have a perfect washing facility. Great idea and a real help when in the woods. Very simple to use. A must have for anyone outdoors ideal for bbqs too.

  When the Handy Andy water dispenser arrived, I must admit I felt a little disappointed as it didn’t look that much for £30 outlay. However, a 14mm hole in the bottom of a bucket later, and I was more than impressed. We took Andy on a family and friends camp and all who used him were very impressed. He was even mentioned in our camp poem. A great little gadget which did us proud in this age of extreme hand washing.
