Women Urinate Standing Up? You Bet! TravelMate Online Store

| Full Review |
Anatomically speaking women aren't intended to urinate while standing up, or while fully clothed… correct? Such no longer holds true via the TravelMate, available for purchase from the TravelMate Online Store. The focus of this review is to provide an evaluation of the online store; for more information about this particular product I suggest visiting the merchant. In addition to providing the revolutionary TravelMate and accessories for such, this online store also sells disposable toothbrushes, sanitizing spray, the Neat Solutions® Potty Topper™, and a few other personal hygiene products.
I happened upon this store via recommendation from a friend, whom is an avid hiker, yet has medical issues that cause frequent urination needs. She discretely raved about the products available from TravelMate Online Store, mentioned that this was the first merchant that she had purchased online from, and complemented the entire purchase process. Intrigued I decided to visit travelmateinfo.com.
Upon arriving at the site, you will select from TravelMate USA, TravelMate Canada, or All Other Countries. Residing in the USA, naturally I followed the links to TravelMate USA. This took me to a page that provides an overview about the TravelMate™, a "non-invasive urinary devices enable females to pee through the fly of their clothes while standing, or by attaching our medical-grade thermoplastic elastomer tubing and collection bag." In addition to this overview, you can navigate to specific sections: TravelMate Accessories, TravelMate Instructions, TravelMate Questions, TravelMate User Reports, or TravelMate Town Hall. Along the top navigation bar customers can browse product availability within the TravelMate™, Restroom Defense, or Oral Care Products. It was in the Restroom Defense category that I found – and purchased – a package of the Neat Solutions® Potty Topper™ and the Sanitizing Sprayer. I purchased B-Fresh Toothbrush/Toothpaste Combos from the Oral Care category.
The graphics load rapidly and the TravelMate Online Store offers easy navigation, even with dial-up connection. When selecting items for purchase, the desired purchases load quickly into your shopping cart. One improvement I would like to see is a master order list, allowing the shopper to quickly orders items from all three primary categories. Currently ordering from multiple categories requires navigation between the three categories. Additionally if you leave the shopping cart and proceed back to the primary product pages, I do not see a one-click method for arrival back to the shopping cart. To reenter my shopping cart I had to add another item to it. Regardless… the pages load quickly, so this was a minor inconvenience.
The checkout process was simple and rapid and I received a confirmation email. The TravelMate Online Store accepts payment via Visa, Master Card, Discover, and checks or money orders. Shipping was exceptionally reasonable. I placed an order for five products, shipping and handling total was a mere $3.00. My order arrived nicely packaged, via US Mail, approximately 7 days after order placement. The charges to my credit card were accurate and a sales receipt was included with the shipment.

Overall I am satisfied with this merchant and can assure you that TravelMate Online Store is a trustworthy merchant. One that offers unique personal hygiene products, affordable shipping and great customer service. I recommend this site to those that - for either medical or convenience reasons - are interested in the TravelMate™. Additionally the Neat Solutions® Potty Topper™ packages and the self-pasting toothbrushes are worthwhile purchases.
