Porta Potti White Thetford Corp

I just purchased this two weeks ago. I am glad that I purchased this product. Let me start by saying my home is my trailer and this toilet is used daily. My previous portable toilet was a Fiamma and it was great, but after 5 years it could not contain the smell and would leak. I read the reviews of the product and was hesitant to put out more than a hundred dollars on a portable toilet that may or may not have an electric flush problem. Luckily I did receive one that does flush, but as some reviewers mentioned it may go out. I have only had it two weeks...so far so good. I will update after a couple of months and again in one year. Now for my review of the portable toilet itself. I have to say that the Fiamma I had was good, but this Thetford Curve is better. First, it stands taller than my Fiamma and the Thetford feels like a real toilet. It looks much better with the smooth lines and curve, which is nice for when company comes over and they don't have to encounter a square clunker looking toilet and the uptight people will feel more comfortable sitting on the Thetford Curve. The automatic flush is great. It does the job and does not spray up on the toilet seat like t Fiamma's manual flush would do. I am a overweight person and I am comfortable on this toilet. This toilet feels sturdy. I wouldn't sit on the lid (even if I was skinny) because it really isn't made to be sat on. I have just emptied this for the first time. I don't have the greatest back and because of the way you need to hold it with the weight of the waste it is a little awkward and put a little more strain on my back than the Fiamma toilet did. But that could just take getting use to (maybe). But and this is a big but (no pun intended)...I would take the awkwardness of emptying the Thetford Curve over the Fiamma for one reason and to me a big reason. When emptying the Fiamma, it would splash all over (even outside the bowl no matter how fast or slow I emptied) and would come out like "glop glop" which creates more splash. Very unpleasant. But the Thetford Curve was so much better. The little air vent button worked like a charm. There was no splashing. There was no "glop glop" at all. It was poured out like a pitcher of water. Not one splash outside the bowl. It made an unpleasant task bearable. Even if my electric flush didn't work (which it does), the way this empties out made it worth it. One piece of advice for those who do purchase the Thetford toilet. The little air vent button that I like does have a tiny flaw, but can be avoided. Make sure that you do not fill the waste in your toilet up to full. When you go to empty it and it is completely full, when you push the air vent button the waste liquid may leak out where the button is located. Luckily, I did not have the waste close to being full when I emptied it, but found out this minor flaw after I decided to completely fill it with water on my third rinse of the toilet. So please be aware that this can happen. Still, I would get this Thetford Curve even with that tiny flaw ONE YEAR UPDATE: IT HAS BEEN A YEAR AND IT STILL WORKS GREAT. THE FLUSH STILL WORKS GREAT. NO ISSUES AT ALL. ONE OF THE COMMENTS I MADE ORIGINALLY WAS THAT IT WAS AWKWARD TO EMPTY (ESPECIALLY WITH A BAD BACK). I HAVE NO PROBLEM EMPTYING IT AND IT IS NOT AWKWARD ANYMORE...IT JUST TOOK GETTING USED TO EMPTYING THIS STYLE OVER THE FIAMMA. MATTER OF FACT, I HAVE FOUND THAT EMPTYING THE THETFORD CURVE IS MUCH FASTER THAN MY PREVIOUS FIAMMA AND I WILL SAY IT AGAIN THAT IT DOES NOT CREATE A GLOB GLOB SPLASHING EFFECT. IT IS SMOOTH TO EMPTY, QUICK TO EMPTY AND MAKES A CRAPPY JOB (PUN INTENDED) BEARABLE.

This is my first experience in using one of these, so don't have a reference to compare. Use for road trips in day camper, can use between vehicles. This seems to be ADA height, so my wife, [handicap issues] no problem with height. Flushes by pressing a button [switch] which turns on a little water pump that delivers a swirl that cleans off the surface area of the bowl better than some home residential toilets. Reservoir of fresh water stored on top half of unit and waste in bottom half. So when waste tank empty the center of gravity is top heavy, and will flip over in your vehicle if not secured. I bought the base unit and attached to floor of van. Also would use in house, after wife surgery easier clean up than those hospital thing they send you home with. Well made. Also they give a small bottle of biodegradable deodorizer for waste tank, which I'll buy more. Well made. Can take some weight. 12/31/2018 update: This sucker has held up well! I've used it between my 2011 Sprinter van work truck for camping, now doing a bus RV conversion, and I use it in there as well! I purchased the mounting plate for floor, which is really great, keeps it stable as the top fresh water resevior makes it top heaver, when bottom waste tank is empty. I forgot about it in the freezing weather 10-5 deg F, and of course the resevior froze solid, thankfully no damage, still working great! [Get some RV antifrz and mix] Still going great for temp solution until black tank is installed. I'm almost reluctant to install blk tnk, as disposal is so easy! Similar to Cassette idea. I can carry the 5 gal ok. If no poop, smell I can deal with as I pour into toilet, but poop, get some fresh air fast. This cleans up like new. I'm especially impressed how when you press the flush button, the little bit of water used rinses the entire bowl surface. Leaving the bowl clean. Better than some home toilets. As I spec out toilet for bus build I'll be checking out this company's RV toilets [need ada]...but been great as toilet tech goes.

We recently bought this to upgrade from the smaller Camp toilet. This is soooo much better then those small square camp models. First off it's the height of a normal toilet so so don't feel like you're sitting on a kids toy with your knees around your chin. Second, the depth of the bowl is deep. The built in battery operated flush pump helps with clearing the bowl. Third, emptying the bowl with the side lever is very user friendly and smoth action. And final is the nasty task of emptying the holding tank. With its long tube and swivel action and the built in notch on the bottom of the tank it makes holding it and emptying it into a regular toilet very easy. The fluid level gauges for the water and waste tanks are a great feature. With its 5gl capacity for each the flush water and waste tank you have lots of capacity. These are great option for anyone building out a van.

E celente produto. Só não gostei do preço por causa da nossa moeda que não vale nada.

Utilisation depuis 1 an au chalet l'hiver. Efficace. Nécessite peu d'eau à chaque envoi. Bonne capacité de retentions des matières. Pas d'odeur. Facile à vidanger et à nettoyer. Nécessite 6 batteries AA pour la chasse d'eau ou remplacer eau par antigel plomberie. Mais fonctionne quand même sans la chasse d'eau. Excellent produit.

Been using this in a customized winter RV for a couple weeks now and we're pretty pleased with it. It can sustain two adults for 3 to 5 days depending on usage, and is quite easy to dump. We've used standard, liquid RV holding tank chemicals as instructed for the 5 gallon tank, and have not had any issues with odours. The fresh water tank is good for about 3+ dump cycles, and emptying the holding tank is quite easy. Pit toilets are a breeze, but even regular toiles do the trick with a few flushes. Only concession we've made is to go easy on the TP by supplementing with wet-wipes that we throw away, but otherwise it's used as needed.
