I'll try to be tactfull about this but it can be a touchy subject. (Pun intended)Is it just me or does it seem that RV camodes are made for just women and not men? I'm not overly indowed but it seems that my junk just doesn't seem to fit. It seems to touch unwanted places and/or water, unless I squat instead of sit. I'm sure that others must be encountering the same situation. Has anyone purchased a replacement camode to alleviate the problem? If so, what brand and model did you purchase.I know that this is going to take the brunt of a lot of jokes, but it is a serious enquiry.

I have observed the same. I have learned to tuck the nozzle-type appendage in slightly before sitting, and give thanks that it is our family toilet, and not a truck stop or worse.I suspect that some RVs have elongated toilets, but surely not in the price range I live in. Most RV baths would be overwhelmed by the size of one.Tuck and scrunch, protect your junk, say a prayer, to not get stuck in there.Matt B

Possible solution:Junk Elevator

they make better commodes than what you have. some are just like home commodes just with out the tank

Okay, I'll jump in with a serious answer!I think it has to do with just the right amount of water in the bowel. Too much water, things don't fit. Too little water, makes for messy bowel/improper flush.Simple answer, hope it helps!My Dometic 310 is much better than my old thetford.Jerry

We have a Theford Area II, which is an elongated porcelain toilet that works like the one at home. However, it is larger than the original Sealand and may not fit in some coaches with tiny toilet rooms. We have a large, open bathroom and space isn't a problem.
