Review on Camco Toilet Designed Recreational Activities 5 3 41541 by Adam Boudreau

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Game Changer: Interior

I bought this portable toilet so we can go everywhere and not have to use the public toilet as most of them are closed due to Covid 19 restrictions. Works great on the back of a minivan. It's very secluded if you step back towards the building or the trees. The product is durable, very easy to clean and I would buy again but there are some improvements that would be nice. The two attachment handles that attach the clean tank to the dirty tank seem to need improvement. They fell apart on me but thankfully they didn't fall far and the tanks are thick and durable. The slide valve between the two tanks makes me a little nervous because it doesn't have a lock/latch position. It looks like it will open up and cover me with things I don't need, but it didn't. I had this issue with another issue that was my fault. I did not check the holding tank lid before first use and the lid was not tight from the factory. The lid is pretty tight and I can close it really tight, in fact it's so tight I can't open it. I use the kitchen towel trick, fold it lengthwise, wrap it around the lid and use it like a wrench. But maybe a bulge or two on the lid would give me more leverage. But overall it works great. Children (girls aged 5-8) are not all strong enough to push the flushing plunger, but I help them. Contains odors as you would expect when using chemical pills. We really only use it for day trips for 5 of us. But it gave us the freedom of choice, and it's worth it! I also bought a folding tent to use as a toilet, but the back of the minivan is simpler and doesn't draw attention. My minivan is now a camper!
