We tow a small trailer around Idaho with no built-in bathroom, and I'm trying to sort out a toilet setup before our next trip. I keep going back and forth on a portable unit versus just using campground facilities. I came across this page about the Kohree 5.8 gallon portable RV toilet while looking at options: Kohree 5.8 Gallon Portable RV Toilet Review.
What I'm unsure about is capacity versus weight. Five-plus gallons sounds great for a long weekend, but I don't want something that's awkward to carry and empty at a dump station, especially when it's full. I'm also wondering how the seal and vent hold up after a season or two of bouncing down Forest Service roads.
Has anyone here run a portable toilet this size in a smaller trailer? How is it for everyday use, and is emptying it as much of a hassle as I'm imagining? Any input from people who've used one would be appreciated.
