Customer photo review of ONTAP - ROAM™

We are obsessed with our ROAM! It’s is SO easy and convenient, we have one that lives in the back of the car and we haven’t had to recharge it for like 10 days and we’ve been at the beach daily. SO handy for rinsing after the beach, for the dogs, washing our surfboards, camping and boating etc. A legitimate game changer for us.

Can't rate this product more highly. I have the original one as well, but I've always wanted a water system built into the Troopy for ease of use. But this solves that problem for a fraction of the price and it's portable! Great system and worth every cent!

ABSOLUTELY LOVE the product. Best upgrade to my Jimny.

We just made a 3 day camp trip through Colorado, Utah and Nevada. The flexibility of the roam on our trip was fantastic. Drinking water, food prep, cooking, washing hands, washing up dishes. The long hose went wherever we needed it to keep the mess away from our truck. Or to take the water to our cooking setup.

Running the OnTap Roam with the extra water tank in my overlanding Tacoma has been one of the most useful upgrades in my setup. The OnTap Roam gives me pressurized water anywhere I park. I’ve got it paired with the OnTap Extra Water Tank, which basically doubles my usable water on longer trips. For overlanding, that extra capacity is huge, it means I can stretch a trip without constantly hunting for water stops. What I like most is how simple the system is. The pump is strong enough for rinsing dishes, washing hands, or spraying down gear (and the dog) after a muddy trail day. Setup was straightforward, you push a button and it just works. The battery life has also been solid, I’ve gone multiple days of normal camp use without needing to recharge. The extra tank is worth it if you’re doing multi-day trips. It keeps everything modular, so you can run one tank for quick weekends or both when you’re deeper out. Overall, the OnTap Roam setup has become one of those pieces of gear I use constantly but don’t have to think about, which is exactly what you want in an overlanding rig.

Works great. Good pressure for a shower. I heated a half jerry it in the sun during the day and added a litre of boiling water at night to make it nice and hot. Battery lasts a long time. I had seven hours and it’s still on the highest level of charge.

Customer photo review of ONTAP - ROAM™ Off-grid water system

Absolutely thrilled with this purchase! My original package got lost in transit but the moment I reached out, the customer service team (Thank You, Sam!) jumped into action and shipped a replacement right away. No hassle, no back-and-forth, just quick and genuinely caring support. That kind of service is rare these days and it really says a lot about this company. And the product itself? Excellent quality, exactly what I needed to complete my rig. It fits perfectly and performs even better than I expected. Between the outstanding customer service and the top-notch product, I couldn’t be happier. Highly recommend to anyone on the fence. I know it is expensive but this company clearly stands behind what they sell!

Customer photo review of ONTAP - ROAM™

After 4 months of regular use, I can say that the Roam is better than the RinseKit Cube in ALMOST every way. Design - Roam is more sleek and utilitarian. The symmetrical sides of the cube felt awkward since it couldn't fit in the nooks and crannies of my truck bed. The roam is perfect because when it's laid flat, it fits under my BamBeds platform. Functionality - far more showerhead options, which surprisingly all get used. Whether for camping or surfing, it accommodates all my different activities well. Flexibility - Soooo much easier to charge than the Cube. I just remove the upper housing and plug it into my USB-C charger. I can't speak to the ability to swap tanks since I only have one, but i feel like that could be a gamechanger for certain use cases. Water storage - 16 gallons in Roam vs 15 in Cube. More importantly, the Roam is actually effortless to empty due to it's simple Jerry Can design. The Cube has a HORRENDOUS design flaw that makes it impossible to fully empty, even after removing the bottom plug. Battery Life - no hard comparison done, but I felt like the Roam's battery lasted significantly longer on a single charge than the Cube Charging ports - Cube has USB charging ports for other electronics, while Roam has none. Meaningless category to me though. I never used the Cube's ports to charge anything Potability - Not important for me since I don't plan to drink out of the Roam, but may be a consideration for others. The water in the Cube always tasted like astroturf and probably would have made me sick had I made it my regular drinking source. The Roam water tasted fine when I tested it. Durability - This is where the Cube shines. Thing is built like a tank and survived years of abuse before I sold it. My Roam actually came damaged upon arrival (see pic), but it didn't bother me enough to complain. I also needed it that weekend and the Aus -> US shipping time is too long. Even so, after months of use I can see other microcracks along the plastic that houses the battery and hose unit. Pressure - Cube has a slight leg up here but the difference is trivial. Overall, I'm impressed by the Roam and would buy it again over the Cube, despite my concerns about durability. I also haven't had it long enough to grade its longevity but I'm hoping for the best.

Customer photo review of ONTAP - ROAM™

It’s a solid system. Let me give you the full picture. The all-black containers are a smart design choice for camp life — leave them in the sun and the water heats up fast, which is genuinely brilliant for a camp shower or washing up. Just worth keeping in mind if that particular jerry is carrying your drinking water, as it’ll warm up quickly in direct sun. The twist-dial connection between the pump head and jerry can is a neat sealing system, though on a full jerry it can seep slightly. In dusty outback conditions that dial can clog after a day on dirt roads — a screwdriver sorts it, but it’s something to stay on top of. A simple neoprene dust cover over the pump head while driving would be an easy fix, and one worth considering for future versions. The hose storage wraps neatly around the pump head, keeping everything compact. The one trade-off is that you need the pump unit in place to strap the jerry down securely. A small slot in the wing flaps for a cam buckle to pass through would solve that cleanly. Everything is drinking water safe, and the same pump head works across multiple jerry cans — great versatility. Just be mindful of cross-contamination if one jerry is carrying grey water, as residue can sit in the lines. Battery life has been good, it handles rain without complaint, and just make sure the USB charging port cover is properly seated. The real test comes in July — a month in the Kimberley, corrugations, bulldust, and hard daily use. All the signs so far suggest it’ll hold up.

Customer photo review of ONTAP - ROAM™

I've owned the original portable shower for several years now. The ROAM is different in that it's 'always on'.. I've freed up the ciggie socket in the tub in the ute. I've used the system for rinsing dive gear, post dive showers, fresh water when camping and/or out with the doggo. The pressure of the pump is sensational. It fits into the Ranger bracket I had previously and with an M8 bolt, have mounted the hose holder in the back of the ute. Great system!

ONTAP - ROAM™

Warm shower after an early surf to thaw hands and feet before getting ready for the day in the car park is a game changer!!

ONTAP - ROAM™ Off-grid water system

Had a faulty battery pack but ontap immediately sent another full unit and paid postage return was a easy fix and the new one is fantastic

ONTAP - ROAM™ Off-grid water system

The Product is amazing and well built. Everything works as expected and the finishing are very good. The fact you can remove the top part of the tank is a good idea so you can carry more tanks or charge it in the car without handle heavy tank with water. In addition We had a problem with shipment but the customer service react super fast and precise. Absolutely highly recommended !

ONTAP - ROAM™ Off-grid water system

First trip away with the on tap. Performed well, provided the right amount of water at the right time. Only away 4 days but still had plenty of water on return, metering was spot on.

ONTAP - ROAM™ Off-grid water system

I absolutely love this product. It has been one of the most useful bits of gear that I have been using on my month long trip. Delivery was fast and easy all the way to the UK. Great water pressure and capacity. One thing that could be improved, it would be the length of the hose. Just a few inches more would make it much easier to wrap up neatly. Aside from that a fantastic product.

ONTAP - ROAM™ Off-grid water system

Great product! Will come in handy when I’m off the beaten path! So many use’s, it’s a great addition to my off-road gear!

ONTAP - ROAM™

Bought it for washing the salt water off my ski before loading it onto my roof racks, as fresh water not always available, works perfect and more than enough for a warmish shower as well before heading off. Stays in the back of my Ute continuously now, just suits my lifestyle.
