The Whizzinator is no longer with us but there are other urinating device alternatives out there that are as good if not better.

For this review I want to talk about three kits that I've used and liked. Why three? Why not just one? There are a lot of companies out there that sell urinating devices. As a result, it can be overwhelming when it comes time to choose one to buy. In an effort to try and shed a little light on the subject I thought it would be a good idea to give a review of the three urinating devices that I have had personal experience with and, more importantly, I know that they work.

I've listed the various company’s URL in no particular order. There is no winner in this review. I did not publish this review to say that one or the other is the winner. I could care less which product you choose. They will all get the job done. After reading this review, go to their sites and read about the products they offer. Look at the pictures of their products and compare them for yourself. They all have pros and cons.

The Pissinator. These guys make a good product and they've been around for a long time. Their product cost me $99.95 plus shipping costs. It’s easy to fill, easy to use, and easy to wear. The directions were straight forward. The instructions also included pictures to help guide you. I liked this as I'm more of visual learner.

The Pissinator uses a penis that looks like a real flaccid penis. It's a little creepy just how realistic they decided to make it. However, this was a refreshing change as most urinating kits usually include a fake penis that looks more like a dildo than an actual penis.

The Pissinator only needs one hand to be operated. At first, I was a little skeptical about this feature but sure enough it worked as advertised. In order to start peeing all you need to do is pinch on the shaft of the fake penis. When you want it to stop peeing just stop pinching.

I recommend mounting their vinyl bag under your arm (armpit area) as per the instructions. This is because you have to squeeze on the bag in order to get the best flow of urine. Be careful when you're squeezing the vinyl bag. Don't squeeze too hard and don't start squeezing until the urine begins to flow. If you don't follow their directions you could damage something. I’ve tried mounting the bag in a couple of different locations and it flows as well as the others I've used. However, it’s more like the real thing when you're able to squeeze the bag.

The Executive Kit. These guys have a good product and have been around for quite some time also. Their product cost me $249.95 plus shipping. It's is also easy to fill, easy to use, and somewhat easy to wear. Their directions were also very straight forward. The straps that are included with the unit won't work very well. You'll need to wear some tight fitting underwear to help hold the prosthetic in place.

The prosthetic on the Executive Kit resembles a small erect penis. I do recommend using some make-up on the prosthetic to give it that final realistic touch (something about the material they use tends to make the prosthetic a little shiny). The shade and color of make-up you choose depends on your particular needs.

The flow of urine begins and stops by pulling out on the prosthetic or pushing in on it. This is a fairly simple and effective method of controlling the urine. However, I do recommend affixing the unit to your body very firmly so that you can control the flow of urine. I had success with tight underwear and I've heard of people using duct tape to secure it to their bodies (take a shower to get the duct tape off.)

As with the Pissinator, I also recommend mounting the Executive Kit vinyl bag under your arm for the same reasons discussed earlier.

The Real Whizzinator-XXX. This one also cost me $99.95 plus shipping costs. Their product is also easy to fill, easy to use, and easy to wear (there seems to be a theme forming here). Their directions were similar to the Pissinator’s but they don’t have as many pictures. This one uses a penis that is very similar in shape and size to the Pissinator so I'll just say that the two are the same in this area.

When I was double checking everyone’s price to see if anything had changed, I noticed that they were offering free refills. Of course they weren’t offering any free refills when I bought mine. I tried calling them to see if I could get in on the offer but I didn’t have any luck (ordered mine before the promo started).

This product has a small on/off valve mounted between the fake penis and the urine bag that you twist like a petcock valve. Clockwise for on and counter-clockwise for off. I've used the Original Whizzinator type on/off valve that you move up or down to turn it on or off. The real Whizzinator XXX's twist valve was easier to use than the Original Whizzinator type valve. However, unlike the other two models reviewed here, you may need two hands to operate the real Whizzinator-XXX (ie same as the Original Whizzinator, Urinator, etc.).

I recommend completely filling the vinyl bag that holds the urine. The reason I suggest this is because, as the bag runs out of urine, the flow tends to become more of a trickle. this is a common problem with all gravity feed urinating devices (Whizzinator, Urinator, Original Whizzinator, etc.).

Hopefully you will find this review helpful in your search for the perfect urinating device. If you've had any personal experience using any of these or other urinating devices, feel free to post your comments to this review.
