We have a Thetford 165 and a Fiamma Bi Pot.
I personally prefer the Bi Pot as it's easier to fill, empty and clean, sturdy, no leaks or nasty smells (we use ours for everything!)
It means I can use sites with miniaml or no facilites as well as going to CC and C&CC rallies and meets.

If space isn't too much of an issue for you, I'd get the Fiamma.

The Kampa Khazi bucket has a lid for when you empty it - so no slopping lol

It still goes down chemical toilet - tis waste after all... I dont use chemicals in it.. sometimes I take a small bottle of flash and put a bit of that in, or cheap disinfectant. What I will say from a personal choice is DONT use zoflora - someone told me to use it once and it made the tent stink for days.. and actuaklly made the loo smell worse!

Ah, you must have used the 'Bouquet' or 'Rose' scented Zoflora then  They both stink   We always use the 'Lavender' Zoflora, with a little water too, and the loo & the tent smell of fresh lavender, oo er....

we use a luggable loo always with a bag and I had read on here to use wood based cat litter which we have tried and it works well, generally we only use it for night times... But as said already on here you can pack stuff inside as it is not a dead space and as we all know space is crucial with our ever expanding camping equipment...

We had a flushable but it was a pain as it had to be filled with chemical before use and heavy to carry to empty also took up too much space, just bought a luggable loo, comfy as it has a seat, only used for night wees so easy to empty first thing each morning and when cleaned out stores the tent pegs

Dont know why we didnt change sooner. 





Spot on. It's brilliant. Never camp without it.

I use the Kampa Khazi and am really pleased with it, it's definately one of my most useful purchases. I tried zoflora too but it was stinking (yes it was the floral one).

Here's my tip. Get the 'floor wipes' from the supermarket, they're right beside the standard worktop anti-bacterial wipes except that they are much bigger cloths and more substantial too. Asda do them for £1.01 and I think there's 15 in it.

I use them even at home in preference to the more flimsy work top wipes, but for the kampa khazi they're brilliant.

I keep a blanket over my Kampa Khazi during the day.

I always use a few drops of Zoflora with a little water and have never had the problem with oversmeling.
I have used 3 or 4 different zoflora smells too.
