Is this easy to clean? And how do you do it?

The bag and nozzle itself are very easy to clean. I can assure you this product is medical grade silicon and on par with our hospital supplies at my work. I would say it is even better then our hospital supplies as those are all meant to be disposable one time use only items and this is clearly meant to last. That said, the interior of the tubing you can only soak or boil. Now let's get down to the business of cleaning.Unlike most sites that recommend performing them on the bathroom floor surrounded by towels, from experience I find it much faster and easier to perform them in my bathtub. I am a very busy medical professional and endurance athlete. I simply don't have the time to perform these enemas, then have to clean and disinfect the bathroom floor, inspect and if need be clean and disinfect the walls and finally bleach the towels. I have found it is much quicker and easier to simply clean and disinfect the tub and the bag then take a shower as well all at once. As for the soap itself, I use an all natural organic cleaner made from green apples. You don't want to use harsh chemicals as they can potentially degrade your bag not to mention the potentially toxic residue that might be introduced into your system. As mentioned by Rob, if over time the staining from the coffee is an issue you can soak it in hydrogen peroxide, just make sure to rinse it all very well.On page 31 of the instruction booklet that comes with the kit it gives the best advice: that is to simply boil the kit. At the hospital we use high temperature steam and pressure to sterilize our instruments. I recommend keeping a separate large stainless steel pot in the bathroom closet and using it strictly for this purpose. The only piece that gets truly dirty is the insertion nozzle of course. Make sure you clean that out very well before boiling. Tip: I keep a box of disposable medical vinyl gloves near my tub for cleaning purposes.To make this all easier to understand here is my routine. After I finish my treatment, I don my gloves and fill up the bag with the organic food based cleaner and let it run down into the tubing. I let that soak while I clean and bleach the bathtub using a roll of thick disposable paper shop towels you can get at most auto parts stores (this is the biggest time saver: it is a lot easier and faster to clean the tub then the bathroom walls, floors and bleaching a bunch of towels). Lastly I use undiluted cleaner to directly clean the nozzle. I then dispose of the paper towels and gloves after which I use the shower head to rinse everything down. As I take my shower I release the clamp and let the cleaner run out refilling the bag several times with water throughout my shower to throughly rinse it out. Once I finish my shower I place the throughly cleaned kit into the large stainless steel pot with water, cover with a lid and boil it in the kitchen to sterilize it. I get fully dressed, make my tea and veggie juice. I then, using oven mitts, remove the pot from heat and very carefully dump the hot water into a storage container for later plant use. I carefully handle the very hot bag, tubing and nozzle, again using mitts, and hang it all up to dry in the garage as I head out the door.If you are new to enemas I recommend starting with warm normal saline. You are going to make mistakes at first and saline is a lot easier to clean then coffee or green tea. You can make your own normal saline by simply taking deionized distilled water, boiling for good measure and sterilization, and adding medical grade salt (not iodine table salt) in the appropriate ratios for your volume of water which is based on 9 grams of Sodium Chloride (NaCl) to 1 liter of water for an isotonic normal saline solution. This is the exact same ratio we use in medicine for intravenous infusion as well as irrigation of wounds and body cavities.Lastly I would recommend going to Jess Ainscough's Wellness Warrior Coffee Enema site for a very well written and detailed article and instructional video. This was the single best resource for me when I was getting started and it is very helpful.Good luck and Blessings on your journey Glen.

What is the diameter of the silicon tubing? Is it standard 5/16?

Thanks for your question, yes 5/16 tubing and the standard size for most enema bottles or containers

Is the enema tip flexible

Hi JH, Good Morning! I am happy to let you now that the Pure Enema tips are flexible. I hope this information is helpful. Have a great day, Seeking Health Staff

Dues the tip secure to the hose so there is no chance it will come off when withdrawing it?

Thank you for your inquiry. The bag tip and tubing tip meet at a pure, food-grade stainless steel connector that is tight and secure. The stainless steel connector is sealed to the bag, and the hose is removable. Feel free to let us know if you have any further questions.

Don't go cheap, buy this one and you will happy

I use enemas only once every other month or so for constipation. The only equipment I have used are “drugstore” bags or fountain syringes. They worked, but never well. The bags were hard to fill and the fountain syringes only a little better. Often the outside of the bag/syringe got wet and had to be wiped off before use. Then fittings would be drippy, adding to the mess. The hose clamps got worse over the years, first they were metal, then cheaper plastic. They gave you the choice of full on and full off. At one time I had an enema can,which gave zero clue as to how much or little fluid had gone in. The rubber containers were a little better. The amount of bulge gave something of an indication. There was a douche nozzle and a straight enema tip, both of hard plastic included. But the investment was 10 to 15 dollars.So I thought how much better one of these expensive kit would be compared to the cheap route. Well they may look alike they are definitely NOT. I went with a 4 quart bag although I previously had 2 quart models. I thought for the five dollars difference why not buy the bigger one. Although I may never need that capacity. This bag has a huge opening and is super easy to fill without spilling even a drop. The fittings showed ZERO drips. The hose clamp, while plastic, has a roller on a ramp so you can go from off to wide open and everywhere in between. The hose is great and is see through, so you can see air pockets and even the flow. And you can see through the bag to see how much has been consumed. My only complaint is I wish the side of the bag was calibrated. It would be nice to know exactly how much instead of well it looks like half of it is gone. I am guy, so I didn't care that a douche tip is not provided. But there is what I would call a standard straight nozzle and one that has a bulge on the end (hopefully making it easier to retain the liquid). The bulged one has multiple openings so it can't get clogged with you know what. They are not rigid plastic but a flexible material. I prefer not getting impaled on a hard plastic nozzle. There is also a soft colon tube included. I never have used one before but I might try it out some time and see if it has merits. Then there is cleaning, unlike the rubber ones, this unit (bag, tubing and nozzles) can be boiled. Another plus.To wrap it up the “drugstore” units are a waste of money. This is far worth more than the others. I doubt I will ever need another but if I do, it will be this one. Being cheap is not an option for me anymore.

Great Bag

The pros:It’s high quality. This thing seems like it was built to last if you treat it properly. Also, it’s aesthetically pleasing. The clear white bag and tubes are not only good for monitoring your progress, they are not embarrassing to just leave hanging in your bathroom like the red or blue bags. Those get so dingy over time. That being said, I still keep my blue bag for coffee, as I think over time coffee would turn the clear bag brownish, and then I just use the clear one for large volume clear liquids.The cons: it seems like it was just taken out of the mold in which it was made and mailed off without opening up the holes. The small holes in the bag and nozzle were still sealed up with a thin layer of silicon. I had to go through with a tweezers and razor to remove the thin layer of silicon over the holes to make it useable. Also, wish they would’ve coiled the tubing instead of folding it. The kinks do come out no problem, but they are a bit more prone to kinking in those same spots. It’s really only a big deal when trying to use the colon tube, as it just folds over in itself inside you. Not an issue for normal enema use though.Personal preference:I don’t really like the flexible nozzles. They are a little tougher to get in, so I just swapped out with a more rigid one from my last bag. Also I’m not a big fan of the roller clamp (not really sure what it’s called). I just like the flow on or off (no fumbling with it) so that too I swapped out from my old system. As far as the colon tube goes, I love the idea, but I just couldn’t get it to work. Seems like it just folds up as you feed it in (I might need a hand with that one).Overall I’m extremely happy with this enema. And for this price you can’t go wrong.Wish they made a 5 Quart bag though.

No clear instructions

I appreciate the quality of the material and the fact it is transparent.However, I lacked clear instructions on how to assemble it, why there are 2 tubes and two endings. What needs to be attached to what? Why are they different?The user manual was a bit "dry" in general, I would have appreciated more illustrations on how to deal with it and also what is OK, what is not OK with enemas in general.

Extremely happy- here is my detailed review :)

I did my first enema and I am SO happy that I did my research and paid more and ordered this specific enema bag. Here is why:- the clear silicone makes it so much easier to guide you on how much water is going in. I couldn't imagine doing my first enema with one of the red/blue plastic bags.-there is absolutely no smell to the bag (I read reviews where many complained about chemical smells and some said they even tasted the smell after their enema for many days! yuck!)-the very wide open top makes it so much better to dry. I can even put my whole hand through the top (see picture) to wipe inside if needed. It dries so fast and you can see if its wet or dry.-the roller clamp is very easy to use and controls the flow precisely-there is a stainless steel spout connecting to the silicone tube. I read stories of bags leaking- and even worse: when the tubing comes off during the enema from the water pressure... yikes! This connection is so strong, I couldn't even disconnect the tubing by pulling on it!-I only used 2 quarts for my first enema (which is what is recommended)- this is a 4 quart bag - so when I work up to a high volume, I can still use this :)Overall, it was well-worth every penny! I highly recommend this to everyone- especially first timers. Since this is such a delicate subject, we can easily be discouraged to continue with this very healthy habit!If you look at my pictures you will see that the tube was tightly wrapped with tie band. I was concerned when I saw this (thinking, oh no- now I have to get the kinks out!) As soon as I cut the tie band the silicone tubing went right back to its original state- no kinks!
