"Great Product"

We are big Nascar fans and attend at least 3 race weekends per year and we have thought about getting one of these for a long time (sick of using public port-o-pots). This unit is the answer to our prayers. If you have used a toilet in a camper, this is very similar. Before I actually used the unit, I filled it with CLEAN WATER to test the seals and they held with NO Leaking. It is also easy to use and dispose of the waste. Good Product, Very Happy. 5 stars

"Excellent toilet! I have 3 now."

When I am camping things couldn't be better than bringing along my own personal toilet. I don't know if you're like me but I can't go anywhere except at home! This is the next closet thing to my home toilet.

Let me just say that it's comfortable, lightweight and affordable. I've actually sat and used one while I was driving. Sure it raised me a bit high but all I had to do was adjust the mirrors a bit and I was fine. Did you know that the stick shift on a '69 Mustang holds a roll of toilet paper perfectly? Now you do.

Enjoy. 5 stars

"Camping and at Home"

I had an older model of this type of portable toilet, but the years had taken their toll and it was time to replace it. The Visa 268 has been a good choice. The flushing mechanism is much improved over my old model and it seems much less likely to break. I also decided to spend a little more for the 268 since its holding tank is larger and that means more time between emptying. Of course, the seat could always be bigger for someone like me with a bigger sitter, but at least it holds up under my more than 250 pounds of weight. The construction keeps odors contained and I have never had a problem with leaking.

In a house with only one bathroom, and more than one person, this portable toilet is kept within easy reach in the basement. In case of emergencies, particularly if two people become ill at the same time, it comes in awfully handy. When camping, there is little better than not having to run to the public restroom, or out into the woods, in the middle of the night. Keeping this toilet right in the tent makes camping a whole lot more tolerable. 5 stars

"Really great portable toilet!!"

I bought this porta-pot for a camping trip out in the desert in an area where there are no facilities. I was skeptical, but I really didn't relish the idea of squatting out in the open where there are literally hundreds of off-roaders zooming by throughout the day. I kept this unit in my tent and never have I camped with such luxury. No more freezing late-night runs to potty outside or piddling in a bucket to be dumped later. It was great!! No odor leakage problems between uses and it was very easy to dump out. I was worried it would get too heavy to lift since I was travelling sans hubbie, but it wasn't a problem. When I got home, I cleaned it up with a bit of water-bleach solution and a good rinse - clean up was very easy.

It comes with a 4oz sample of Liquid Gold concentrated toilet deodorizer that you add to the holding tank (enough for one load); if you plan to dump it more than once on your trip, I recommend you stock up on more of this handy item. Also, dealing with solids took a bit of ingenuity...I found that a very thin layer of TP at the bottom of the bowl took care of any sticky issues. I'm just saying. Another tip - collecting your "yellow" paper in a small plastic trash bag and/or adding it to the campfire pit saves space inside the holding tank. 5 stars

"Perfect Backup Toilet"

Having a mountain cabin with just one restroom creates a problem when we have very many guests at one time. The Visa 268 has given us a great backup for "emergencies". The larger capacity of this portable toilet allowed us to go through the Christmas holidays and we only had to dump and clean at the end of the trip. We won't use it often, but when needed it will be invaluable. 5 stars
