- Showing features and how the porta-potty set works that I just got on Ebay! You can see what it looks like in my Chill Gorilla Privacy Tent review.
Here is a link to Ebay about this product:

Great video I got mine in the mail last week and then finally put it together and tested it today. It is a pretty awesome contraption, while I did not get mine for camping, mine is more for emergency situations such as when the power is out and you don't have any extra water. a standard toilet uses about 4 gallons of water to flush and as you know this one only takes I'm guessing about a half a gallon or less for #2 and #1 requires 0 water.
If you dont have any extra water how are you gonna use it?
Urine diversion dry earth toilets are better for continuous use though you can just stock the toilets and dry peat moss for emergency use. Camping use is probably the most bothersome way to use them as you would need to clean them for storage afterwards instead of just dumping them. Note that for continuous use, you can just dump half of the contents into your compost pile and use the remaining half as filler instead of constantly putting in more peat moss as filler, this also saves on using water to clean them.
@@davidjollie3807 You don't have to use water except to clean them for storage. For continuous use, there's no need to hose them out except for cosmetic reasons if someone has diarrhea and even then only if there isn't enough filler material such as peat moss or sawdust to bury it and keep it from sticking to the sides.
Using the sink drain for the tank is awesome and totally conservation minded. You get a badge for that. I will be doing the same as I just ordered both not too long before finding your video. Good job!
Baby girl!! This is how you glamp. I just made a new friend 🤣😂. As my mom use to say gone wit yo bad self. I love creativity period... Looking forward to more. Blessings
Thanks for the demo. I purchased one from Amazon last week, just put it together. I love it.
Do you still like the toilet sink combo after all of this time?
I'm glad there's finally someone on CZcams reviewing camping accessories I'm interested in. Definitely my favorite new CZcamsr!
😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Ordered this a few days ago! Gonna be doing an unboxing/review! It’s going into my tiny camper build! Great video!
Great idea especially for a tiny home. To prevent water splash in sink, Cut the neck down and install it lower to the sink. Also use a backsplash shield around the top of the sink.
Finally a good video with all the answer that we want!!!Thank you!!!
Clever betty... Great combination. I've seen both of these but never together... It's a really great idea for larger vans..
I was thinking of putting something portable in the 1st floor closet under the stairs, for my 💯 yr old Auntie!! Mom's having issues now, too. Shame plumbing is other side of condo.
I also bought both of these components, for my Sprinter "Over-nighter" van ... I am completely pleased with the performance of both. They are a very simply, and very reliable ... no power needed, so ... always ready to "go" ,,, when you need to "GO!"
Great presentation. Thank you for the time and effort you took to make this video and share it with us. Greetings from Croatia.
This is Fire 🔥🔥Thanks For The Review 💯💯
Was looking to buy thanks to your informative video I'm gonna buy with confidence thank you and keep up the vids
This would be great for people living in a tiny house!
seeking truthnwisdom or a van
Where would you dump the waste and get running water to clean and fill?
xoxXOXO l Ordered this a few days ago! Gonna be doing an unboxing/review! It’s going into my tiny camper build! Great video!
@@Joe-Markus
I watched your video.👍 Thanks for sharing and for the Walmart link.
My daughter is moving into a place with no kitchen I’m thinking of ordering this for now. I would imagine you have to dump the dirty sink water out daily
I live in an apartment by myself and I love my mini porter potty. I have that sucker right underneath my table in my bed room. Sometimes I just dont want to get up. I just want to do my buisness and go to bed.
I’m Definitely going to consider getting these items one day 😎😁🙌
Thank you for reviewing!
Thanks Jenna, very helpful video.
Great video. Thank you for posting.
Great set up
Thank you so much for sharing this information
Fab video , I’ll be doing this for a garden project 😂
Thank you for this!!! I’m looking into one of these because I want to get land and go off grid. It’s gonna take me a while to get either a septic tank or a composting toilet but this would be really good before that!
I had the same idea/ setup but i have the thetford flushable porta potti with this sink and it is super but I use two 5gallon water bottles to use my grey water coming from the sink so when I'm ready to empty the potty I don't have to do all that disconnecting cause I'm full time user.
Thank you so much for making this video!! I also HATE using shared/public bathrooms... definitely considering this purchase!
Oh how I love it....that is too cute! I wished we had those when I was in the Army doing 7-30 days field training! We had those disgusting blue porta-potty smelling toilets and barely a half working hand washing station.
I think I may got ahead and get this for my tiny house with a portable rv holding tank to stay off the grid.
As at least you got port a potty's. I was always to far forward. We had to dig a hole or be a surface shitter, LoL. Thanks for serving.
love it!! thanks for making this video!!
These camp toilets are designed on the basis that you would be at a campsite and could empty them out at an outhouse or a restroom facility on a daily basis so I would not expect using them without emptying them at least once every other day. They sell chemicals to put in the five gallon waste compartment that help neutralize the odour and slow down the anaerobic bacteria which produces the foul odours and the methane gas. If you don't want to be emptying the toilet daily or every other day, get a dry earth composting toilet such as the Airhead, Natureshead or C-head. These have urine diverters do the solids are kept dry and mixed in with a medium such as peat moss, coconut husks, sawdust, newspaper clippings etc. This keeps the decomposition aerobic which doesn't produce foul odours. The composting medium should absorb the initial odours of the fecal matter and after that it should be similar to the odour of fresh earth onc the bacteria gets busy. The various toilets often have a powered vent to ensure what odours there are would be vented and of course bring fresh air to keep the bacteria culture aerobic. You can usually go a month without emptying one of these and it's actually preferable to not empty them completely so that you're not starting from scratch once you have a bacterial culture that gobbled up the odours. If you have a compost pile, you just empty them in there and it'll be fertile soil in between six months to a year, otherwise you can bag it and throw it out with the trash. The urine receptacle often has to be emptied every one to three days but they are more options to disposing a bottle of liquid then there are for disposing of black water from a camp toilet, the urine does tend to have an odour but you can put the chemicals used in camp toilets to help neutralize that or even just vinegar or bleach, basically the acid keeps the bacteria from growing and bleach kills the bacteria (you can use vinegar or bleach with the camp toilet too). Unfortunately, these composting toilets would have no need for grey water but you could drain the sink into a five gallon tank and use the grey water to water your flower beds (just don't put vinegar or bleach in it unless you're trying to kill weeds).
Used Urine makes ammonia. NEVER mix bleach with ammonia!
@@stevecarr1992 It is more correct to say there is urea in urine and urea can breakdown into ammonia hence there are many conditions where urine has the scent of ammonia, however it is true that ammonia and bleach will produce chloramines which are hazardous to breathe hence ventilation is important. Certainly mixing cleaning ammonia with bleach is a serious mistake but mixing urine with bleach is not as serious as mixing ammonia with bleach.
Composting toilets don't compost anything. It's should be call a dry toilet. You are seriously misinformed if you think it's safe to dump a months worth bucket of human poo onto the ground. It's would take at least 1.5 years, in the right conditions, to be safe enough to dump on the ground. Human waste contain many bacteria like Salmonella and E. coli that can cause illness and death. These dry toilets aren't being disposed of properly due to the spread of this misinformation and lack of common sense. They are contaminating the environment and ruining nice boondocking sights. Some places will never be reopened to the public again because people ignored the dumping warnings. If you had to pay the cleanup bill of the land and water due to human waste, you would ban people from using your land too.
@@laurieschaeffer1162 Boy, what crawled up your rear... It's never been said that the toilets produce garden ready compost, just that what's collected can be disposed of in compost bins, piles or trash bins. Of course it takes up to two years to actually compost organic matter so you're not going to be dumping the contents into your garden, nobody said the toilets are full fledged compost bins, just that they are toilets.
@@stevecarr1992 used urine. My urine removal cleaner has bleach in it. Lol stop.
Thanks for this vid, very helpful
Love this one 👌👌
That is awesome. I will try to find that set up.
You can find it on Ebay or Amazon. I think my link is still good in the description area lol
Just found eBay listing.. found wallet.. and it’s on the way :) thanks for the video!! Looks great for tiny house idea
Craigslist Finds Ordered this a few days ago! Gonna be doing an unboxing/review! It’s going into my tiny camper build! Great video!
I'd love this for a small van conversion
Lauren Ordered this a few days ago! Gonna be doing an unboxing/review! It’s going into my tiny camper build! Great video!
Too cool! Thanks for sharing.
Great review
Thanks. Was wondering how these worked.
This is cool thanks for sharing
Hey Jenna, this is freakin' cool!!!!! Between your vid and another lady ... I will have no problems camping. Now all I gotta search for are solar panels for light/electric source. Thanks!!!!
For lights and charging your phone/laptop etc... It won't let me post a picture.
I have to do the same for solar panels lol
Great review..i'm thinking of buying one as an extra closet restroom for emergencies,someone is always in restroom at the wrong time!😂😂
Lmao I understand! The only thing that sucks is getting it cleaned when full
@@Catastrophic616 Yeah true,anyway wife just told me that was a dumb idea🤣🤣so much for that ..maybe for camping.✌
Looks good
Clever way to reuse the water!
That's really cool
That would be great for camping
Good video
Good job
Neat idea 💡 thank you
How do you assemble the sink. I only need a sink. How would I set it up and get water from? Where would the dirty water go?
Try putting a "T" pipe with a shut off (installed in a sideways T format) so if you're washing dishes with particulates (and the shut off is set to open for vertical flow), it'll flow into another tank or bucket of your choosing. Once you close the knob, and only have grey liquids coming down, they will pour out of the side, and travel down your current pipe to the left and into the toilet for recycled utilization when nature calls. This should reduce the chance of food and other particulates from clogging your portable toilet pump. 😉
Sounds like great advice. Can you do a demonstration video, lol? Only halfway joking about the video 😐
It only costs$110! I didn't check the shipping, but that's too cool!
need this in my allotment shed.....got the loobut need the sink
How often would you have to empty this ? / is it easy ? Im renovating a detached garage and cant have a toilet due to septic tank issues and I’m thinking about getting this since it has a sink too . Please lmk thanks !
I'm going to be living in a van fulltime. I love this setup but I definitely need it to be inside the van not outside. As long as I use bungee cords to make sure it stays in one spot, do you think I would have any issues while driving? if everything is sealed up good, should the water and everything else stay in its place until I'm ready to empty it? Thanks 🙂 kim
As long as it is secured upright I dont see why you would have an issue. I would just make sure to put the original cap on the toilet instead of the sink drain while traveling.
Can you show how you empty the waste?
Awesome!!!!
Hey appreciated the vid. Wanting one for my boat im building
How did you get the pipe to connect to the hole in the toilet? I’ve bought two sinks and the pipe won’t fit in the hole HELLLLP
Hi Jenna, Great video!! can you tell me, the base of the sink, could it swivel around so that the foot pump would be out front? hoping one of these might fit in a narrow space I have.
The sink locks into place at the base. You could probably rig it that way and not have the sink completely screwed in but find another way to secure the sink
Is this heavy when you go to remove.the waste. Also since you've obviously used it how did it hold up?
You made a nice video
Thank you!
Well, thank you, young lady
Can you disassemble the sink & put it away? Also, can you pre-fill the water tank before you get to your camp site?
Sherilyn Fox It does come apart easily. The tank, bowl and stand comes apart and you would have to undo the clear tube to the faucet. I would definitely say yes to being able to prefill the toilet's flush water. The only concern I have with the sink's tank is that the fill hole has a tough rubber top with a very small hole to help with pressure for the foot pump. It might be okay but I havent tried it yet. It kind of reminds me of kids sippy cups that help prevent spills.
I have the PPotty I have the 5gal one will look into the sink
The toilet tank have a plastic bag or how you cleanings?
Just seen, great video, my question is how do you clean the part where it holds the poop
There is cleaners and solutions you add to the tank and you rinse out until water is clear. There is usually dump stations where I camp so that is where I clean it out.
Jenna Benites that’s cool so it’s not that bad cleaning it out. Thanks for responding 😁
@@lilraahdreadlockvideosandm1648 na not too bad. Lol no problem 🙂
I think the lady is a genius, NOW that's a pretty good set up...All a person would need is a toilet tent ...WALMART HAS THEM CHEAPEST ?
Unless I am looking at something wrong isn't the waste tank capacity wrong? It says the waste tank holds 20L. If you fill the sink freshwater tank with 20L and the toilet with 10L of fresh water that is 10L over the max capacity of the 20l gray water waste tank. Am I correct or looking at something wrong?
Well you are correct, the waste tank will fill quicker before you run out of flushing water. At that point, you just have to drain the waste tank. The pro of using grey water from the sink as flushing water is having to fill the flush tank less.
You can always fill the sink tank half full if you were worried about a overflow issue.
Can that toilet handle poop that combo would come in handy if our power goes out during a hurricane or anytime we don’t have power
Love it
Hi great review I've just brought the sink here in new Zealand then I came to review it lol do they come with plugs for the sink?
There isn't a drain plug. Great question
What the size of the space it sits in!
What’s the space size it’s takes up?
how do you dump it
Awesome!!!👠🚌👠
Yes
thanks !
Where can i purchase the sink from
Probably a dumb question but what do you do with the grey tank once your done? Go to a dump station?
Lol it's not a dumb question. Yes I went to the dump station. That was the worst part. Lol
I want one for my grand mumm how much and where can I get it in ug
*Fast and accurate*
how to fill the water into that tank how much litre does it save
There is a cap you screw off to put in the water for both the sink and toilet. The sink holds 5 gallons or almost 18 Liters. The toilet's flush tank is smaller, my guess around 2.5 gallons or about 9 liters. The tank that holds your waste (bottom tank) is 5 gallons or about 18 Liters. I hope this helps. 🙂
If you put right next to each other what’s the size will be (wide size)
Roughly 3 to 4 feet
Do you have to put any solution in the bottom portion? If so what type?
Any standard black tank additive found in the RV section.
Edit: you don't really have to put in any additive but it's going to stink if you don't.
Thank you
Does the little bit of liquid that flushes the toilet actually do a good job of flushing waste into the bottom? And is there a lot of problems with waste sticking to the little door inside the bowl?
Trevor Schmitt need to shit like a log no more diarrhea
yea a good case of mud butt is gonna have smears on the inside of the bowl, but better then no commode at all.
How can i buy it?
Can the sink be used with any portable toilet or does it have to be the same brand as the sink?
I am sure it will work with any. The drain is the only thing connect to the fill tank which doesnt have to fit perfectly as long as the toilet's fill tank's hole is bigger than the sink drain tube.
Please someone tell me a pros and cons list of this product
it is a place to shit-PRO at some point you have to dump the bucket of shit -CON
my friend bought me th sink & toilet-my family put it together for me-as i was physically unable to at th time...i tried putting th sink drain hose into th toilet fresh water opening but th tube doesn't seem to fit...im going to try & disconnect th drain tube from th sink, to see if th other end fits...but i was wondering if any1 else had such difficulty?...
terri a.
The tube from the sink drain does not screw in perfectly but as long as the tube fits inside the flush tank hole you should be fine as the water slowly drains downward into the flush tank.
@@Catastrophic616
i ended up shaving down th pvc drain tube-i figured there must hv been a problem, otherwise my brothers would hv got it in...
now it's connected & i am so gratefu-it is really working out gret!l...thanx!
Is there a warning full light?
Nope there is no battery or electricity involved. Probably can make judgment when you pull the lever and notice how full it might be
Where does the water in the sink come from? And how much was it?
The water tank for the sink is the entire base making up 5 gallons. I paid about $110 for the set
Can you put a link for the sink also?
Did you buy the sink separate or together?
Will the sink hook up to any 5 gallon potable toilet?
I bought them together on ebay or Amazon I can't remember at this point lol the sink I think can come separate and as long as the drain tube can sit in that hole, it will be fine. Honestly, it doesn't perfectly fit with the toilet it came with but it works lol
@@Catastrophic616
Okay, thank you!
Can you send me the link where you bought this at
I have the link in the subject of the video. You can search it on Ebay and Amazon as well.
Is there any tube that need to go outside your house ?
Hi I use this for camping and drain at dump stations. There is tubes you buy separately that can make the draining process smoother.
Wow❤❤❤❤
Is the water for the sink cold
Yes it uses cold water
Where did you get the toilet
I bought it on Ebay. You can also find the set on Amazon. There should be a link under the description of the video. 🙂
Does the toilet have an odor?
No not really, deodorizers help a lot
they need to make it height adjustable.
it doesn't stinks around? Keeps odours sealed in its container?
Why isn’t she answering this . It’s the number 1 questions
And most important one
i want to buy this one ... but i am currently in Pakistan .. please tell me how i can get it in my country ....
Hi, you will have to contact the seller on ebay.com or amazon.com to see if they can ship it to you.
