Does The Job, January 23, 2008
I got a chuckle seeing the "video review" choice for this product. Somehow, I don't think it would be a good idea. lol
This thing works fine. Takes a couple seconds to set up. The legs are a little hard to get "unlocked" at first, because the entire thing is molded plastic. When set up, the lid looks like it will stay put like a seat back, but that isn't the case. I wouldn't bother trying to use it as pictured. It just falls off, because it fits into slots that don't lock down.
It's pretty easy to set up the Wag Bag inside of the netting. You'll have to make sure that you spread out the baggy to provide a big enough target.
The Wag Bag kit comes with toilet paper and an antiseptic wet nap. There's a powder inside the bag, so you have to open it up slowly when getting ready to "install" it in the netting. I would recommend having your own TP, as the stuff that's provided isn't that great. Baby wipes are good to have on hand.
When done with your business, the bag has enough extra plastic to fold over the top and avoid touching anything. It pushes easily into the zip-loc style pouch, and then you can stuff the wet naps in and zip it closed. Easy to dispose of in any trash can, too.
I'm about 250 lbs., and this thing supports my weight with no problems. It doesn't feel shaky at all. It's a little shorter than a normal toilet, but it's not a problem.
As for storage, it doesn't take up much space at all. It's light, and has a carrying handle.

Not QUITE as advertised, July 5, 2007
This is an excellent product. Strong and sturdy, I have no fears of it collapsing under my weight. It is, however, not quite as tall as a conventional toilet, which is one of its advertising points. It's 2 inches shorter than the toilet in my home. That doesn't sound like a MAJOR deal, but for those of us with bad backs and knees, it's sometimes an issue. Otherwise...it's a winner.

Great alternative to an outhouse!, July 12, 2007
We have been using our PETT toilet for about a year. It's terrific to tote along on camping trips to places that either have no facilities or smelly outhouses. We like that the WAG bags are biodegradable, too - it's good to know they won't be sitting in some landfill 50 years from now.
