Often, there is confusion whether to buy the enema kit with a bag or then, whether to buy one with the steel can.

As far as the price is concerned, Enema Bags are cheaper than Enema Cans.

But that’s about where the advantage of Enema Bags ends….

The Enema Bag has several disadvantages:

1. Cleaning: The enema bags are difficult to clean from the inside. The can has no such problem and provides clinical

hygiene

2. Refilling: Bags are difficult to refill during an enema session. For a good enema session you would need to refill your container. Refilling the Enema Can sitting on a counter top is so much easier.

3. Undesirable odors: Most of the bags are made of rubber latex. These have an undesirable odor, something totally absent in Stainless Steel Cans.

4. Latex allergies: Enema bags should be avoided by anyone prone to latex allergies.

5. Messy: It is not uncommon to find the soft enema bags falling off the hook or tipping over from the top. No such problems with the Can.

6. Height adjustment difficulty: Enema bags have to be hung on bathroom pegs, most of which are at a fixed height. Enema Cans can be placed on table tops or counter tops giving the necessary flexibility for an enema session.

Even if choosing a bag, the fountain enema bag (with open top) should be preferred to the hot-water bottle “convertible” type bag. This is because the hot water bottles are even more difficult to clean – something totally undesirable for enema applications.
