So we bought this portable toilet because we do a lot of dispersed camping & day camping with no public services available & I wanted to bring some creature comforts along for my wife & others. So far, it's handled a large group of 15 people for a 4th of July day camp next to the lake and a 3 day dispersed camp for 2 people.I'm happy with the size of both the dirty water reservoir and the the clean water reservoir. It's enough space for us without becoming too difficult to carry. A key tip here is to bring a small trashcan with you and throw your toilet paper away rather than flush it with the portapotty. Toilet paper will eat up your reservoir capacity really quick. Doing it this way should last 2 people at least a week easily....more if the male users can urinate outside without using this thing.Another tip is spend the money and buy the disolvable tank deodorizers. It makes using the toilet in a confined space pleasant and you'll thank me when you're cleaning the thing.The toilet itself is easy to use and big enough for pretty much everyone. Cleaning was fairly easy. I do wish it did have a fold out pouring nozzle for emptying like some of the others have because you may get splashback if you're dumping in a toilet. Did I mention you should buy the disolvable toilet deodorizers? This makes the cleaning park tolerable.Durability on this thing is pretty solid so far. We had a party with 15 people out on the lake with kids and people who probably drank too much and yet this thing held up. So that's a plus.I think the only downside to this toilet is that the flushing pump isn't in such a convenient place. I've used ones where there was a foot pump and those work much better. But all in all, I'm happy with my investment.

Let's face it, a portable toilet is not the most exciting thing to review. I used this toilet inside a pop up tent at the beach. Since our campground was a few miles away from a secluded beach, this toilet took the pressure off of driving folks back and forth to the bathroom. I liked the two separate compartments. The upper fresh water compartment and bellows flush system worked very well. The lower black water storage tank was easy to transport , drain, and clean. I used an RV black tank treatment in the lower tank, and this keep odors to a minimum. I was pleased with the sturdiness and construction. I think this will last a long time. Maybe I need to go to the beach more often.

Wow! We took a 6700 mile road trip (family of 4) and slept in the van bunks every night for 2 weeks and 3 days. This toilet worked amazingly!! Very comfortable (my husband is 225# and he liked it too), very sturdy, simple in design (for emptying/filling/hooking together), and strong enough that we could sit on the lid when closed. The height is good! No difficulty getting up or down. We used the
Walex TOI-91799 Porta-Pak Holding Tank... tablets in the tank water and found that each deodorizor tablet lasted 5 days before we began to notice any smell and thus dumped into a toilet or into a portapotty. (5 days is great!) We filled The plain water holding tank before we left and still had some in the tank when we pulled in home! Great product, and GREAT price!! Would definitely buy again. Love it.

5.0 out of 5 stars This toilet is sturdy and works well~
Reviewed in the United States on June 7, 2010

I wanted a portable toilet that was sturdy, comfortable, neat, and large enough to hold some waste with minimal odor. This product was all of the above. The top has a container for clean water that you mix 2 oz. of holding tank deodorant and cleaner into. The bottom holds waste. You add a small amount of water and holding tank liquid.This helps break up the matter and elimintate odor. ( I bought coleman brand for about $3.00 dollars at Wamart. There are larger and small bottles) The handle in the front pulls out a small disc that has a seal around it allowing waste to go below and seals it inside. It has a push button to flush a small amount of holding tank cleaner as well. This breaks down matter and reduce odor. All and all it is an excellent product. Cleaning it is not a joy but it is doable. The top unclips and you hold the bottom in the same postion as it sits on floor. You unscrew a tight fitting knob and pour waste into a proper holding tank. The inside is then hosed out and you start over.

3.0 out of 5 stars Watch out for heat and pressure

I used this to outfit my minivan like an RV for long trips with multiple toddlers with small bladders. It works well. It contains smell well and is small and light enough for me (mom) to easily carry it in one hand and a kid in the other. Large enough for 6'1" 190lb person comfortably.
The worst aspect is the seal, and how it can spray you in the face if you pull the flush with the toilet lid open. (My five year old found that out. yuck.) I think that spraying up and out happens when it gets warm or we change elevation, thus changing the air pressure. We quickly learned to keep the lid down when pulling the flush pull. The flush pull is between your legs if you pull it while on it. it is easy to catch it on clothing and bend it or step on I feel like it is vulnerable to be easily broken. The slide pull is thin aluminum and seems like you can bend it accidentally. If the handle is upside down it won't snap into place. You need to be sure the toilet flush pull is out while you go and you don't open after you go.

This was shipped fast and we got it in 3 days from order date and I was worried it would come in late after our camping trip. I ordered this to go in our tent so I also ordered the blue deodorizer to put in it as well.We had no issues with smell and when we left camping we dumped it in a porta potty. We have toddlers that have to go all the time and I also needed it for the middle of the night go's. It's a great height for the kids and I not so much for my husband because he is 6'2 but he used it one 30 degree night instead of stepping out in the feeezing cold to go by a tree! So all in all great product, worked for my family of 5!

Just received these & they are of very good quality - every bit as good as the Ping ones they are replacing (wrong colour - vain aren't I!) I was sceptical because of the price but thought I'd give it a go as not much to lose... but I'm delighted. Sizes are perfectly suited to the modern large head drivers. Highly recommended!

Does what it's supposed too. Very little odor even stored in a hot tent-holding tank does a good job keeping the smell in. I didn't use the flush option, as we just used it for pee. Just sprayed the bowl with lysol or diluted TST and 'flushed' it down into holding tank. Used that orange Camco TST stuff inside the tank. Good purchase.
