About this deal

This portable campervan toilet from Dometic is a larger version of the 972, coming with a waste tank capacity of 18.9 litres, as opposed to 8.7 litres in the more compact option. This means it’s a bit bigger than its smaller counterpart and weighs a bit more too. Despite this, it’s still fairly small, and at less than 5kg, it’s a manageable weight too, so should be fairly easy to transport.

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. Although it is a bit bulky at 12 pounds empty, it is still a great option for bigger families or longer trips where emptying is harder to do. In fact, my sister and her partner have been using this toilet in their van for the last two years. There is no need to go digging holes and the use of a portable toilet is no doubt cleaner and better for the environment than squatting behind a tree. This toilet is marketed with less pumping in mind. The idea is that you pump the toilet up and then push a button when ready to flush. The button will allow you to flush multiple times before needing to pump it up with more pressure. It’s similar to a garden sprayer in which you pump it up and then the pressure allows you to discharge water into the bowl as needed.Setup is simple, with a hinged two-handle release option to separate the top from the bottom. Both the toilet and holding tank have a handle for a sturdy grip and easy moving. We had a camping party for my daughters birthday in the fields away from the house and it saved all the blushes. More than that, it became a feature of the party with them all gathered round admiring it. So there, not just functional, but a talking piece too! 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. Able to bear a weight of 200kg, it has two separate containers, one an 8-litre liquids container, and another a 7.5-litre solids container.

Thetford makes some really nice portable toilets. They are among the most popular for those who rely on these for their vans, RVs, and other camping situations. They are small, comfortable, and well-made which are key considerations when it comes to this type of solution. Let’s look at some of the pros that I like about the Thetford Porta Potti 365. Pros Well Designed & Built Outstanding quality.: Thetford devote much attention to quality, thereby ensuring that your Thetford Porta Potti toilet will accompany you, trouble-free, for years to come.

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. 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.
