Great toilet for the money. Excellent features + very good customer service.
I decided on this Camco 41544 toilet because of 1) the shape of the waste tank and 2) the seat height and 3) the piston pump (instead of bellows or battery operated).1) Many reviews of the "square waste tank with inset handles" type toilets complained that solid debris had a tendency to get stuck in the inside corners of the tank. In my one-week testing of this toilet I found that crap can stick to just about any surface if you don't use enough water. Lesson learned: don't be stingy with water. Especially just before emptying the tank, I fill the bowl several times with clean water then flush (WITH THE LID DOWN).0) Lesson 0 (before lesson 1). Only flush with the lid down. If there's enough water in the bowl to cover the sluice gate (aka flush valve), there's a chance that it will "burp" when you open the gate. After the first incident I didn't experiment with different sluice opening speed (which may have an effect on the splash). I simply reduced the odds of splash back to zero by closing the lid first. This rule should apply to any toilet of the sluice gate / sliding hatch variety.2) The height of the seat on the 5.3 gallon model is about an inch shorter than our "normal" (Home Depot Glacier Bay) toilet at home. Although I don't see a need to build a platform for underneath, I might buy/make a tray that will allow me to strap down the toilet when in transit.3) The piston flush system. Water is sprayed into the bowl by lifting and pushing down (slowly) on a handle at the rear corner (left side as you face the front of the toilet). The handle has a small rubber piston attached to the bottom and pumps water both on the up and down strokes. This allows you to very easily add as little or as much water to the bowl as you want. And with very little effort. I have mild arthritis in both hands and using the pump doesn't cause any pain whatsoever.When I first put the toilet into "test" service I noticed that water was slowly leaking around the "screw cap" that keeps the piston assembly in place. Not gushes, but a few drops with each pump cycle. Enough that it started dripping down the back of the toilet with each use. Instead of being silly and sending the toilet back as defective I unscrewed the cap and removed the piston assembly. Upon close examination I found that the large O-Ring seal inside the screw cap had a small crease in it. Probably not seated all of the way into its groove when first installed. So I sent an email to Camco about the problem. I never got a reply reply from Camco. Perhaps the happy face customer service person was on vacation. Within several days a package arrived with a replacement piston assembly, so they are paying attention.Bottom line is, the problem was resolved quickly.This part is irrelevant to what brand of toilet yo buy. This one came with two sample Camco branded drop-in TST odor control sachets. They look a lot like dishwasher detergent pods. I'd already decided to give Simple Green a try (1/2 cup in the clean water tank before filling) so I haven't bothered to use them yet. After a week of daily use there was no odor so I thought I'd found a cheap and eco-friendly method of controlling portable toilet ordors. And then I emptied the black water tank. The task of pouring it down our bathroom toilet made the bathroom smell like a ripe pit latrine (outhouse). Which is what it's supposed to smell like without fancy treatment chemicals, right? Next time I'll use the TST drop-ins and post an appropriate review with that product if I buy a pack of them.

Very Good Camping Toilet
We just used our new Camco 2.6-gallon toilet for the first time a few days ago. It worked very well.First, it was nice to have a portable toilet in a pop-up shower tent a few feet from where we slept. No midnight trips across a muddy campground, etc. We didn't even have to get fully dressed. We just wore our base layers to the "bathroom". My wife especially loved that! And, since I ordered the Camco in the first place, I got a lot of positive vibes from my wife. I'll take that as a win!Second, we both were impressed with how well the unit is made, how easy it is to pack in the car, and how easy it is to use. It is easy to fill and empty the fresh water holding tank -- though I would recommend using gallon jugs rather than 5-gallon water cells to fill it -- and the pump is excellent. Much better than others I have seen.Further, it is a nice height, it is comfortable, and it leaves enough space in our 4’ x 4’ privacy tent for changing clothes and showering. It is even a nice place to sit and put on a pair of socks, pants, or shoes, if that works for you.Finally, when it came time for us to leave, I detached the holding tank from the top reservoir, which is a snap. Then, I carried the waste tank and a small jug of water for rinsing to a vault toilet about 100 yards -- uphill, no less -- from our campsite. I am 72 and by no means as strong as I used to be, but this was no problem for me, whatsoever. No sweat. Literally.My wife and I are both pleased and impressed with this portable toilet. We are glad we have it.We are now camping in our Roof Nest car-top tent. Next year, we will be getting a new teardrop trailer. Each year, we take off on a 4,000 to 5,000-mile, month-long camping trip out west. The Camco toilet will be going with us for these and all other shorter in-state camping trips from now on. Great product!FWIW: This is an independent comment. My wife and I are retired, and we do not work for anyone. Anymore. Ever. The idea that a corporation could influence our opinions is laughable. Hell, the organizations we used to work for tried that and failed repeatedly for almost forty years-- and they signed our paychecks. 😎

Fits Camco 41545 Premium Portable Travel Toilet
After I bought the toilet I realized it's not the easiest to move around when packing/unpacking the trailer. This storage bag worked out better than expected. Fits the toilet and still has some room inside for other things like toilet paper and some garbage bags. Appears strong. Not sure I'd carry the toilet around full of water like some have reviewed, but if I filled the fresh tank and something leaked it looks like it would contain it until you fixed the problem.

Wish I'd bought this years ago!
This portable toilet is everything you could want for camping or just to have in case. I bought a pop-up privacy tent to use with it and it's made time spent outdoors MUCH better. No more worrying about being gone too far from home or too long with nowhere to 'go'. It's comfortable enough, the holding tank is large and the 'flushing' feature is well-thought out. The whole thing is well-thought out and well-laid out. Can't recommend it highly enough! If I could go back in time and tell my younger self to do something, it would be to buy this. I never want to be without it.
