I got this sprayer from Amazon to prepare for my reversal. However, in the meantime, I find that it really works great for cleaning out the bag. You just put very little pressure on the part of the sprayer that makes the water come out. Full pressure is too strong. Gently fill the bag up with water. Close it up and slosh it around and gently, carefully empty it into the toilet. It has been helpful for me even before reversal. It comes with a side tank mount, but I had it put on my wall with an L bracket for easy reach. I had electric tape put on the edges of the bracket so that it's not sharp.
