Customer Reviews

Portable, Yes; Well Made, NO
This is an update on the product after 3 weeks of use (still waiting for our septic system to be built).

The Coleman's portability and low price are its main recommendations. It is small and light (when empty), but that's also where it fails badly. The unit is just too small for an adult to use comfortably (we're not very large ourselves), and I wonder whether the designers had children in mind when they sized it (a potty comes to mind). Worse, our unit leaks when flushed, which is something I never would have expected in a device like this marketed by Coleman. I hope their boats are more watertight.

Three week update: We've tried everything we can think of to keep this thing from leaking, but it appears that the connecting seal between the two halves of the unit simply doesn't seal. This means a messy clean up every day, and my reduction in rating from 2 to 1 star. Terrible product for home use except in an emergency; maybe for camping it would be OK.

I'm interested in reading whether anyone else has had better luck with these.

Comfortable and small, but easily leaks
When used with a 4" riser platform, this unit was very comfortable for an adult. However, the black tank design was horrible and easily leaked on the first camping trip....what a mess! Unlike a Thetford, the waste cap is directly on the back of this unit, which means any slight movement of the unit will begin to unscrew the cap and cause the unit to leak. The side clips and main seal between top and bottom pieces are also prone to leaks and breakage. So, I'm throwing this one out and buying another Thetford.

Not worth it
Despite the other reviews, we decided to take a risk on purchasing this toilet for our camping trip. It leaked from the lid on the holding tank and made a terrible mess. Something must be wrong with the seals installed on these and I would not recommend purchasing this brand.
