I believe Thetford and Aqua Magic are one and the same.

Measure carefully - many toilets currently made do not fit older trailers. They are sometimes too deep - there isn't enough clearance between the wall and the hinges. I purchased a Sealand Traveler-lite because it was the only one on the market that fit my trailer. It has been just fine and was easy to install.

Just got back

I just went to the thetford web-site & found that the Aqua Magic is Thetford's economical & highest selling model of their line. We've had Thetford toilets in our last 3 RVs & 2 of our sailboats. Never had a problem with them. As noted, I guess fit should be the major concern...to the existing trailer application, not 'the' fanny ! A friend of our's has an enlongated porcelain one in their A/S, now that's 1st class & a must for our next throne .

Dogwood - A few weeks back I installed a Sealand Traveler in my '87 Sovereign and I absolutely love it. Cost a little more but what a difference! Joe

If you decide on the Aqua Magic, I have the Parchment color reg. ht. model V, new in the box that I paid 120 for. I'll absorb the shipping cost if you'd like it and 120 works for you.
