A 10cm height difference doesn’t sound that much, but in a campervan every inch is precious. Cupboard are small to even begin with, so having any redundant items or items that are larger than necessary is a non-starter. What else do you need? That out of the way, let’s look at how easy it is to use the toilet. With a total weight of only 9.4 pounds, this unit can act as a great mobile toilet for camping, outdoors, RV, camper vans, and generally as a travel toilet. The simple design makes it easy to use and maintain, as long as you have enough water to flush it, which makes it a valid choice for longer trips. This may be a pro but could also be a con if you are looking for a larger-sized toilet. I put it in the pros column because it is small and is easy to store away when not in use. If you only need one of these toilets occasionally, having one small in size is a great way to ensure it doesn’t take up much-needed room.

No, we had this within an 8 man tent sectioned off in one of the sleeping pods. It was used by children and adults for two days and no one even noticed it was there until it was needed. The only comment from All was that it was very convienient. Sorry for the pun. The Porta Potti 335 Qube is a terrifically compact portable camping toilet, perfect for use when space is limited and as a result is an ideal sized porta potti for boats or camping trips. Featuring a strong waste tank carry handle, piston pump manual flush, integrated pour out spout and a comfortable seat, the small Porta Potti Qube 335 has all the same fantastic features from the Thetford Qube Portable Toilet range but is simply of a more accommodating build for small spaces. Includes hold down kit Made by Blue Diamond, it’s unique in our guide as it doesn’t require water or chemicals to operate. Instead, it is advised that a biodegradable liner is used in the solids container, as well as applying a sprinkling of wood shavings, sawdust or similar after each use. This not only helps to start the composting process, but should also prevent any strong odours. That leads me on to cleaning it. Do make sure you use the right chemicals with it - these stop any nasty smells in use, but they do leave the loo once empty smelling a bit weird/unpleasant, so it's a good idea to make sure you give it a thorough wash out then I leave mine open to air for a few days. Once empty, I basically rinse mine a few times and tip into the loo, before spraying the inside with anti-bac spray and showering the whole thing down and leaving it open to air. This is a first class product which comes with a free hold down kit. The materials used in construction are of a very high standard which makes not only the function of the toilet easy but looks pleasing to the eye ( if a loo can be pleasing to look at !)When you see her emptying it and rinsing it out, do it several time more than that until the water comes out clean, Its not difficult just a bit more effort than in the video. The most common campervan portable toilet for the VW crowd is definitely the Thetford Porta Potti 365 due to its size. It’s the smallest of their entire range. As a result, I love it to the extent that I'd seriously consider carrying on more serious expeditions in place of food, water, sleeping bag, tent, etc. Well maybe not, but for any other more gentle camping, it is brilliant!!!! A very similar design and price point to the Thetford 365, the Dometic 976 Portable toilet is another option to consider as a camping toilet. This version of their toilet has an increased tank capacity to ensure it will last longer between being emptied and an adult-sized seat, even though the seat height itself is a little low.
The smallest one is the Porta Potti 145 which measures (H x W x D) 330 x 383 x 427 mm. The largest (of this square, boxy shape) is the Porta Potti 365 which measures (H x W x D): 414 x 383 x 427 mm. Features get even better if you choose the larger Porta Potti 565. You’ll have the option for an electric flush, fresh water gauge, and toilet paper holder. All of this combined with a full-sized toilet seat. Large Capacity A portable toilet brings with it both pros and cons. They are great at bringing you the peace of mind that you can go easily at any time of the day or night, especially if you have children with you.
They do require you to dispose of your waste however and many people find that can be an issue as correct disposal requires emptying your toilet at a proper sewage disposable location. For such a small footprint, this toilet has a large capacity for both fresh and waste water. This means that you can go longer between dumping the tank. I prefer to dump mine as often as possible but the large capacity gives you peace of mind in case you aren’t able to dump it for a few days. You won’t have to worry about it filling up so fast. Seat Opening Size This article outlines the sort of research we’ve done in installing a Thetford 335 Porta Potti into our VW T5.1 campervan. Portable toilets are similar to cassette toilets, only portable. While a cassette toilet is fixed inside an RV, portable toilets give you the same benefits while also allowing you to carry it anywhere you want. These are great for camping or off-grid living.
Thetford Porta Potti Qube 335 Mini Camping Toilet A smaller portable toilet for camping and small boats Just like any other toilet-to-go, this model can be used as an outdoor toilet and as a home portable toilet. Owing to the pour spout, the holding tank can be linked to an external marine head, holding tank, or straight to the septic container, in case you have them. At 17 inches tall, Reliance is the same height as your traditional throne at home, so it definitely is a more comfortable sitting option than some of the others.

The call of nature is always one of camping's most awkward moments. If you want to "glamp" instead of "camp", this is a must have! Once connected to your RV’s waterline, the toilet can be used without too much of a hassle. Owing to the built-in flushing system, you won’t need to install additional pull mechanisms or levers. After it’s hooked up to the water tank of an appropriate size, the 2-in-1 flushing device will provide 100% bowl coverage flush without leaving any trace of human activity, which is a nice addition to the base set. But convenience features don’t just end there. The removable seat and cover make using the toilet much easier, while the overall light and ergonomic design allow for simple installation and maintenance of the unit. The Camco Premium travel detachable tank toilet model is a good middle-ground solution for people that seek comfort outside their homes. And although it can act great as a travel toilet, it can be utilized as a stationary model as well. For some people, the prohibitive factor to camping is the bathroom situation. As long as you follow Leave No Trace guidelines, all of nature can be your bathroom, but popping a squat over a dug hole is outside most people’s comfort zone. Upgrading your car camping kit to include a portable toilet may be the key to a successful camping trip, especially when nature calls unexpectedly.
