I have experience with two different styles, I'm using these Walmart references because they are convenient, shop around you may find a better deal somewhere else. The first one is the 'square' shaped pota-potti and the one I recommend. It latches well, a good seal between the two halves and it's simple. This one has a large reservoir for the black water, in my experience I don't need that big a container. The smaller reservoir is shorter and will slide under the bed when it's open and it's easier to carry when you go to empty it. http://www.walmart.com/ip/Century-Portable-Toilet-with-5-Gallon-Capacity-Holding-Tank/10966280 The second one is the 'oval' shape. I have one now & really don't like it, the pumping mechanism is not simple, the latch system is not as secure as the other, the seal between the two seems to leak a touch and being oval it takes more floor space. http://www.walmart.com/ip/COLEMAN-FLUSH-TOILET/13848611 As soon as I find the spare dollars I'm going to buy the square model & get rid of the oval one. I'm really not happy with the latch system and it does take up more floor space.
