Product details
All-in-one solution
MiniGo Flex offers an alternative way of handling the soft pump during irrigation, with the pump positioned in front while being squeezed and the cone’s integrated flexible tubing allowing a reach behind to hold the cone in place.
Ideal for people who:
- Have difficulties with balance while reaching behind
- Have dexterity and reach challenges and would benefit from squeezing the pump in front or when placed on the thigh
- Are helping their child to carry out bowel irrigation, or, as the first step towards independence are squeezing the pump or holding the cone for the child
- Would prefer the alternative way of handling the pump that MiniGo Flex provides
Easy to fill, easy to squeeze
Fill it directly from the tap and just like a bottle, see when itās full. The soft pump fits naturally into the shape of the hand, making it easy to hold and squeeze.
Designed for comfort
The smooth cone is ready-lubricated, just dip in water. Its soft, round tip ensures comfortable insertion and removal. With its five-outlet design, the cone delivers water with a gentle shower effect in all directions in the rectum.
Cone flex small, ideal for children
MiniGo Flex is also available with a smaller size cone. The small version has the same oval shape and delivers the same water flow, but with a shorter length and a more narrow width. Ideal for children and those that require a smaller cone.

How it works
1. Fill the soft pump
Open the lid and fill the pump up to the inner rim with luke warm tap water (36 ā 38Ā°) by holding it under the tap with the lid open. Once it is filled to the inner rim hold onto the top part of the pump and press down on the lid until you hear the click sound.
2. Attach the cone flex and activate the smooth lubricant
Press the end of the tube firmly to the small round opening on the lid. To activate the smooth lubricant on cone flex, wet it with water up to its base for a few seconds. Gently squeeze the pump until water comes out of the cone tip. It is now ready to use.
3. Insert the cone flex and instil water into the rectum
Sit on or over the toilet. Carefully guide the cone flex up to its base into the rectum. Now the cone flex is in place, gently squeeze the pump to instil water into the rectum.
Tip: The picture shows insertion of the cone flex from the back, by reaching behind. It can also be inserted from the front, by guiding it between your legs and then into the rectum. Find the position that is most comfortable for you.
4. Remove the cone
When the cone flex is removed, faecal matter and water will be expelled into the toilet.
Before use, always consult the āInstructions for useā document supplied with the product.

Recommended usage time
The soft pump can be used 30 times (equal to 1 month usage time when used for irrigation every day). Should discoloration develop within the recommended usage time, the soft pump should be replaced.
The cone flex is a single use item. If the single use items of the product are reused, there is a risk of unwanted effects that can influence the function of the product and the health of the patient, carers and others.
