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. Yes, you can continue to return items as normal as long as you follow the government guidelines about leaving your house. This Porta Potti model is a bit smaller compared to other toilets included on our list. That said, it is still a good option to have, especially if you are planning a long trip away from civilization.

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 It stands just over 7-feet tall, has an interior of about 4 feet by 4 feet, and is very ventilated. The door zipper is two-way, so you can air out from the top of the door. It also has a side window higher up that zips opens with a screen. Additionally, the ceiling is made of complete mesh and has separate rain fly to add in the case of bad weather. 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 Thetford Porta Potti range of has been the most popular range of camping toilets for years. They are also still the best designed and most reliable on the market today. The Porta Potti 165 and other models were all redesigned in 2012

The other bonus feature is the level indicator on the holding tank. With the other toilets, it takes a little trial and error to know when it’s time to empty, but this simplifies that task. While not as large as the Porta Potti 365, the Dometic toilet still offers nice sized holding tanks, especially for waste water. You will have to fill the fresh water tank more often but it will get most people through a few days of usage. Carry HandlesThese are portable units so finding the smallest one that does the job is important. Of course, each person is different and will want something different. The size difference isn’t much but since the capacity on this one is smaller, the entire unit will take up a little less space. Pressurized Push Button Flush 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! Made up of two easily detachable sections, the Porta Potti 165 offers both durability and practicality. The lower section holds the waste tank (which has a 21-litre capacity), while the upper section houses the flush-water tank (which has a 15-litre capacity) and the bowl, along with a cover and seat that can be detached.

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.Cleaning: Is it easy to clean? Do you have many components to clean? Do the parts separate easily? Will it spill or splash on you while cleaning? The mixture of chemicals she uses seems odd, much less chemical to water with mine. Maybe her chemicals are different to mine and less is suggested, For added convenience, the toilet is equipped with a battery-powered flush mechanism that works flawlessly, as long as you have six AA batteries. Once you put the batteries in, the toilet can be flushed approximately 55-60 times before you need to replace them, which is not bad for a small toilet model. The lid does not seal out smells, so I would not recommend storing it full for very long. I also use a liner bag to make for easier cleaning. 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.
