I certainly won't be giving a video review! Ha! My 83 year old mother needed them, and she says they work just fine. They are a good design for what they are used for. I received them promptly and had good service.

My wife got this for postpartum care. She uses it every time she goes to the bathroom to clean her labor wounds and she loves it. It has kept everything clean and she has not gotten any infections.

Great idea, but the plastic is so flimsy that snapping the lid shut basically squashes the bottle and much of the bottle's ingredients are lost in the process.

Every woman should keep one of these on hand. Especially for traveling or when you can't bathe at your leisure. Uses just enough water to give a good wash up and rinse.

The item arrived quickly and was easy to use and was exactly as described in the advertisement. Thanks for the prompt service and great pricing on this item.

I'd never heard of a perineal irrigation bottle until I was given one in hospital, years ago, after surgery. Since that day I cannot imagine living without one per person per bathroom. It's incomparably cleaner and simpler than wiping human skin with dry paper, no matter whether passing water or solids, but especially if a little (naturally-gritty) excrement is on my skin! How is wiping that gritty excrement onto my skin with dry paper, going to "clean" me? Eeek! What an odd behavior, and most of us think of it as "normal." But sanitary? Not so much.

If I had budget for a bidet, I would install one in a heartbeat. But lucky for me, I don't need that major budget, since a perineal irrigation bottle fills the same need more simply, portably, and cost-effectively.

Fill the bottle with tap water, squirt water onto the appropriate area, then blot with a soft clean tissue. So simple. So sanitary.

PS - Took one to my most recent hospital stay, and it's a good thing; UCSF does not provide one for patients! And after surgery, my reach was ...er, abbreviated, by arm pain, and I definitely can squirt farther than I can "reach."

Delivery by this vendor was quick, low-cost and painless. Excellent product, excellent service. Both highly recommended.

For several years I have been searching in vain to find these bottles. I live in Canada, and for whatever reason, pharmacies, and even medical suppliers, do not carry them. I was given one after the birth of our second daughter and found it to be most helpful. Now that I care for others, I wanted to purchase some. Thank goodness for Amazon. The bottle is perfect and very affordable.

I have yet used this product, purchased it in case I needed it after my delivery, however, thought it might be helpful to review it so people know that the bottle looks of good construction and like it will do the job.
