Portable Camp Toilet - Camping Commode

If you go camping a lot, especially in areas that don't offer many modern facilities, you definitely want a camp commode. These make it very convenient for those middle-of-the-night bathroom trips.

Some people even purchase small tents to use specifically as the campsite restroom. One such item is the Portable Camp Toilet which can set it up in an out of the way corner if you have a large tent.

This portable camp toilet is basically a toilet seat on folding legs that uses bags to catch bodily wastes. There are other models that are much more pleasant to use and are more like a real flushing toilet, but if you are on a tight budget or want something that can be easy to take on a hiking trip, this is not a bad deal.

Features and Details:

With a toilet seat on fold-up legs there aren't many details you can cover. It uses special bags that are durable and you can buy chemicals that help the smell. Although, some of these chemicals may be harsh on the plastic bags.

It is recommended that you use a small bucket under the seat just in case the bag malfunctions.

Cons Of The Portable Camp Toilet:

This is not like a real toilet that flushes, but it is handy, especially if you have to go in the middle of the night and don't want to walk to the camp facilities.

The use of a bag to catch wastes isn't the most pleasant experience to deal with. You will definitely want to take care of it after a few uses and not let it get too full.

Pros Of The Portable Camp Toilet:

Light enough to be carried on a backpack for hiking and for true roughing-it type campers who do want a little convenience, other than a bush.

It can save you a trip to the public facilities in the middle of the night.

It's great to have around if you have small children camping with you, especially if you're potty training and can't get to the public restroom on time.

Here's Some More Important Information:

The weight limit on this Portable Camp Toilet Camping Commode is not extremely high, although heavier people have said they've used it with no problems.

Conclusion:

If you're a small adult or have kids who need to use the restroom at night, this is a great little toilet. Or if you're backpacing it, this can carry this fold up toilet pretty easily. However, if you're looking for something heavy-duty, you may want to choose something like this:
