Product Description

The Texsport Folding Toilet is the “no-frills” basic and simple collapsible camping toilet that folds flat for easy storage. There are no bells and whistles here. What you get is a budget friendly functional portable toilet that is sanitary and does the job it was intended to do.

This folding toilet features sturdy tubular steel legs that are heavy–duty and a durable plastic toilet seat with a removable plastic retaining ring that holds the toilet bag in place, making it easy to maintain a sanitary toilet. Like pretty much all of the collapsible camping toilets, the Texsport folding toilet is designed to be used with disposable camping toilet bags which makes for about as hassle-free of an outdoor “nature-call” as you can get.

Once you’ve “done-your-business”, simply remove the waste bag, seal-it, and dispose of it at your earliest convenience.

The Texsport folding toilet includes 6 disposable toilet waste bags that are made of polyvinyl chloride PVC construction. 12 pack replacement toilet bags are available and can be purchased separately.

Texsport Folding Toilet Dimensions (folded)

  • 19”H x 13.5”W x 1.75”D
  • Weight: 3 Pounds

For a higher quality folding toilet (and more expensive) you may want to have a look at the PETT Toilet.

love my loo
 
Review Date: June 2, 2008
Reviewer: L. fels, cazadero, ca
we've used this loo for several years--while we're building a more permanent and substantial one. yes, one time it collapsed--i hadn't secured the leg into the seat slot. mea culpa. my granddaughter had issues w/ potty training--wouldn't use a toilet at all, 'til she agreed to use this one. the issues ended. she now uses a real potty but is still glad to use this one when she's staying w/ us.
Good Value for the Money

Reviewer: L. McNeil,
Just as advertised. I haven't had any other portable toilets so I'm reserving my 5th star just in case I ever find a deluxe one. This one serves our puposes just fine though.
Happy Camper/Hiker

Reviewer: J. C. Bednar, Junction City, KS USA
Had one of these items while in the military and it did come in handy. Beats trying to hover over a hole in the ground or trying to park one cheek on a log/rock and vigorously grasping the other cheek. Some of the items clips did break off, but that was rectified with duct tape. After a while the legs did tend to bend but that was rectified by having a friend weld some supports alond the legs. Balance for this item is not very good, so don't expect to read a newspaper while using this. Can be used with bags or you can get creative and dig a hole under you and play "bombadier". After a while the seat itself broke, but, again, that was rectified with duct tape. After a few years of using duct tape and other creative ways of fixing this item, I hit on the idea of cutting a hole into the seat of a folding chair (much more comfortable). This item is good for the quick use/day trip. Sometimes you get what you pay for. Good concept though.
Not happy at all

Reviewer: Tarek El Erian,
Very very cheap quality.. Made in china! Part of it broke off the first time i use it.. And it didn't come with the 6 disposable bags, though its written on the box that it comes with them! Wouldn't recommend it to anyone!
Good for a laugh!

Reviewer: Smokin' Guru,
I set this up in our shower tent. The legs collapsed and I fell backward. Wife came in to check on me after hearing a string of expletives. She couldn't stop laughing the rest of the day. We have since bought one of those 5-gallon plastic buckets with a custom molded seat (about $15 for both). Just use regular kitchen sized white or black plastic bags - PERFECT!! If you insist on buying the folding loo, I have one - used ONCE!

Product Description

The Visa Potty 248 is a deluxe portable flush toilet by Sanitation Equipment that is designed to bring a little modern convenience and sanitation to your campsite. The Visa Potty 248 holding tanks hold 3.7 gallons of fresh water and 4.8 gallons of waste water which is slightly less capacity than its larger brother, the Visa Potty 268 which has a 6+ gallon holding tank. There really isn’t any physical size difference between the 248 and 268 but the 248 weighs about a pound less at 11.2 pounds compared to 12.2 pounds for the 268.

Both models use a piston-type flushing mechanism that provides a highly effective 2-direction rinse. Also included are convenient level indicators to easily monitor both the fresh water tank and holding tank levels.

Both Visa 248 and 268 offer additional height (16.5 inches) which make them a more comfortable camping toilet to actually use compared to similar portable flush toilet models such as the Century 6205, particularly for bad knees. The compromise in comfort though is overall size and pack-ability.

The Visa Potty 248 is an ideal portable flush toilet solution for family camping or outdoor group outings (large capacity) and users with sensitive backs or knees (height).

The Visa Potty 248 is Easy To Use

  • Easy to read Level indicator
  • Multiple-flush fresh water reservoir
  • Spout storage compartment
  • Quick release separation latches
  • Air vent for smooth & easy discharge

The Visa Potty 248 is Easy To Clean

  • High gloss, Smooth surface
  • Detachable spout for discharge
  • Piston pump dual direction rinse
  • Leak proof and odor free seal

Specs for the Visa Potty 248

  • Dimensions: 14.5 x 16.5 x 16 inches

Product Details

  • Easy to use, replaceable piston type flush. Two Direction Rinse for better coverage
  • Easy to Read Level Indicator on both fresh water, and waste holding tank

It actually WORKS!
 
Review Date: July 13, 2006
Reviewer: glad2bdada3, Seattle, Wa
The person who designed this used their head. They kept it simple; no bells and whistles just a practical toilet that works perfectly, doesn't leak and is easy to empty and clean.

UPDATE ON MY REVIEW 5/13/10
While all I said above is true, now after 4 years of use I have to add that replacement parts are nowhere to be found. The plunger to flush it has worn out and the "slide" lever to dump into the holding tank is starting to freeze up. I'd like to replace them but can't find parts anywhere. For a hundred bucks I can't expect the moving parts to last forever and I don't mind replacing worn parts BUT WHERE DO I FIND THEM??

That being said, if I can't find them I will buy this toilet again. I leave mine outdoors all summer long in our woods in order to camp with my kids whenever the weather permits. So I'm pretty hard on it.
The Best

Reviewer: Conrad A. Gutraj, Grayslake, IL USA
We bought this one to replace a another brand. This was "head and shoulders" above that one in terms of ease of use and features that the whole family appreciated. We used ours for camping in our RV and once in an emergency when our home system went down.
Well designed and easy to maintain.
 
Review Date: July 24, 2007
Reviewer: W. Ward, Kansas, USA
T am very pleased with this product. I pack it in with a lot of other gear and I think it might be a little too lightweight, but once it has water in it the lightness is appreciated. Also, the disposal pipe attachment to the bottom could be a little more secure. However, overall a very good product at a fair price.

Our family was quite pleased with the Sanitation Equipment Visa 248 Deluxe Portable Toilet. The price was/is right and it was very easy to install. I would definately recommend it, if you need this product.
Right size, easy to clean
 
Review Date: July 9, 2009
Reviewer: C. Rehn, Utah
We bought this porta potty for use on our boat. However, my husband and a friend went camping last week and were quite impressed. Our friend is quite large and he was very pleased with the durability and 'comfort' of the seat. I'm happy with the flushing and easy to attach cleaning spout. I would recommend this to anyone with a need for one.

Product Description

The Hassock Portable Toilet by Reliance adds a few useful “features” to the basic bucket–style camping toilet like the less expensive popular Luggable Loo series.

The first of which is the addition of a removable inner bucket liner that makes waste disposal and cleaning quick and easy. When the time comes to empty, simply lift the inner bucket out and dump in a conventional toilet or approved waste disposal station.

The second “feature” is the addition of an inner splash guard that fits between the bucket and the seat to prevent splashing when in transit. This is important because the Hassock portable toilet is a self contained unit, meaning the bucket, seat, lid, and even toilet paper all seal-up into 1 unit. The way it is designed, the splash guard prevents the bucket’s contents (waste water) from splashing over the seat. It also provides a convenient place to securely store a roll of camping toilet paper.

The Reliance Hassock Portable toilet is a good option for convenience and budget. It is light weight and therefore easy to pack and transport. It works well for outdoor camping, boating, and even RV’s.

The Hassock can be used as is but also works extremely well with disposable plastic liners like Wag Bags for a virtually no-mess hassle free experience.

The one negative to be aware of is its height. At only 15 inches high it can be uncomfortable for someone with bad knees.

Hassock Portable Toilet Dimensions

  • Weight: 5.00 Pounds
  • Length: 15.13 Inches
  • Width: 15.13 Inches
  • Height: 15.00 Inches

Product Details

  • Hassock portable lightweight self-contained toilet.
  • Features contoured seat for "at-home" comfort.
  • Removable inner bucket for quick and easy disposal of waste.
  • Inner splash cover/toilet paper holder.
  • Ideal for camping and boating.

Great for camping!!
 
Review Date: July 22, 2007
Reviewer: Denise E. Fries, San Diego, CA
We purchased this porta potty which my family of 6 absolutley loves. It was a great asset to our tent when the kids were little and camping. No midnight trips to the bathroom not knowing who or what you would run into in the middle of the night. Plus you never had to leave your warm tent. It seems to me that public camp and park restrooms get pretty dirty as the day passes. We now have an RV, but we still take it along for "number 2" visits to the potty! My wife weighs about 325 pounds and it holds up great. It is also easy to clean! everything empties into a disposable bag which is tied up and thrown away. Bags are reasonably priced. We tried to get everyone to use the bag before we empty it.

While traveling to our destination we keep it handy in case someone needs to use the bathroom. Much cleaner than any public bathroom I have ever been in! It is somewhat low to the ground as the previous person stated, but it is no lower than the rest of the models...We tried all of them out at the store before purchasing this one. The models that are $100+ are a bit higher, but not worth that much money!
Saves the Day!

Reviewer: Jeanne, Fairbanks, AK
We bought it on a Saturday afternoon in the middle of a toilet replacement project gone bad. It improved our tempers and our concentration! We now keep it in the greenhouse as our emergency toilet (4 people one, bathroom). Our neighbors also borrowed it when their sewer pipe got plugged.

Its really nice to have a lid and the TP right there. It also feels secure, unlike a toilet seat on legs that I've used. And its way more comfortable than the 5 gallon buckets I've used in the past. A good purchase.
Great Buy

Porta Potty
 
Review Date: April 5, 2010
Reviewer: P. Hoock, New York State
I love this potty!!! We just built a cabin with indoor plumbing, but have it winterized right now. So we aren't able to use the faucets or the toilet. I was using the woods, until it was extremely cold to do so. I bought this portable toilet and it's working out great!! I put it in the bathroom closet, which has a heater and a light. I am using 2 garbage bags in it, and when we leave the cabin, I just take the bags out of the toilet, and bring it with me to dispose of at home. By using the plastic bags inside the potty, it's never smelly. It's lightweight, and plenty sturdy for me. Once we turn the water back on in the cabin, I'll just put this potty up in the storage area. It really doesn't look like a potty, so we can store it anywhere. I love it and highly recommend it!! Great price and great quality. In fact, I just saw the exact potty at Gander Mountain for $10. more.

Product Description

The Century 6210 5-Gallon Portable Toilet will let you flush away your worries in the middle of nowhere. It is a great safe and sanitary solution for a portable flush camping toilet that also performs well for RV’s, boats, or pretty much anywhere that facilities are either, unavailable or worse yet, unusable. With the built-in flushing capability the convenience of a traditional home toilet can be brought with you to even the most primitive of camp sites.

This popular portable flush toilet incorporates durable high density waste water and fresh water holding tanks that are made of one piece, heavy duty, leak-proof, construction. A double sealed drain valve is incorporated that protects against leakage and unattractive odors. Waste remains in the sealed, but conveniently detachable, holding tank until you are ready to empty it.

The 6210 5-Gallon Portable Toilet is very similar to the Century 6205 but with twice the holding tank capacity which makes it a better choice for longer stays or larger groups. It flushes with clean water and is completely self–contained. Integrated carrying handles make transport a breeze and the attractive (if you can say that about a toilet) matte finish will conceal any potential scratches the Century 6210 5 Gallon portable toilet incurs through the rigors of camping and travel. The holding tanks are held together with corrosion resistant heavy duty latches.

Product Details

  • Self-contained portable toilet for camp site, boat, RV, or other recreation
  • Sturdy full-size seat/lid; lushes like residential toilet; matte finish conceals scratches
  • 2.6-gallon freshwater holding tank and 5-gallon waste-water holding tank
  • One-piece, leak-proof tanks made of high-density polyethylene
  • Shipped fully assembled; 14.5" high x 15.5" wide x 16.5" deep; weighs 12.5 lbs
