Need a new tall one....Id say taller

but the original is a squatty one..NOTHING tall about it.

Would like to replace existing original potty with a taller model.
Prefer white, tall, watersaver with a lid.
Suggestions?
Thanks all!

A tall one

We added the 3 inch riser to our stool and it worked out well. It is NOT for short people though.
I had had a hip replacement and this really helped "Oh what a relief it was"

Hey Cyn!

The only things that come to mind are:

1. Be sure it will fit your space BEFORE you buy (no refund, no exchanges on them, so I hear)

2. Plastic vs. porcelain bowl: Plastic is cheaper but will stain with time (a lot of time) and porcelain is more durable, but don't drop yer hammer on it (don't ask)

3. As you have already noticed, they come in Short and Tall versions.


Other than that, it's just style, style, style! They can be had from $120 to $1,000+ More if you want real gold controls...

Yew jes' better set and thank abowt it!

I'm sure you've thought about the fact that you'll have to lose the drop down cover with a taller unit. Here's the conversion chart from Thetford that might give you some choices:

The Airstream is outdoors, isn't it? You'll have an indoor outhouse...

We got a Thetford Style toilet with porcelain bowl. It's a smidge higher and more comfy than the old Aqua Magic that was there.

I've had my Dometic Traveller Lite for more than a year and I like it. It's taller and much more comfortable than the original Thetford plastic mug. I think the water saver option is indespensible.
