I've used a number of camping toilet options. As a car camper, I figure I can afford to waste a bit of space on a luxury like this. Typically I use folding toilets with bags, but I decided to try something a little more close-to-home. This is a really cool piece of kit with the way it can flush and empty later. It's compact, but holds my fairly-heavy weight quite well. My only complaint is really about how heavy it is when full. When you take it out you obviously have to fill it with water for flushing and water is quite heavy (if you didn't know). In addition, if you \"use it\" and then have to fill the water tank before you can empty it, then it gets too heavy to comfortably lug around. It does a good job at keeping out smells; nothing is perfect, but it does just as good a job (if not better) than the double-sealed toilet bags I use which--even though double-sealed--do leak some smell. The carrying case is a nice addition, but I worry a bit about the longevity. It's a fairly simple bag, and while the straps are robust the bag they are sewn to are a bit less so. I will use the bag, but I will probably not carry it by the straps unless empty.
