a delicate, yet pertinent question concerning rv toilets

When I purchased our first house, I noticed that the bathroom toilet was........small in width and length, compared to the apartment we had lived in. Hmmm, I thought, that was interesting. Upon doing some research at Home Depot and discovered that there were several "sizes" of bowls, we upgraded to a larger more comfortable seating area. Think of Fenway Park bleachers compared to box seats at Yankee Stadium. Well, I have noticed as I have gotten older and a tad more settled, that using our new TC toilet requires a more thoughtful "launch angle" and have often wondered if the RV toilet industry has an equivalent "big boy" version which would not require a WW2 bomb site for efficient and a more confident, how do I say it.....drop. I did a quick look online, and did not see a super duty version. Anyone out there know of one?

I lost 70 pounds and found the toilet fits much better now but its still a small or tight as you say,,, drop zone...

Also make sure it's suitable for a wet bath if you have one.

Take a look at the Thetford Bravura. It has an elongated seat.

Fitting big toilet for RV is not going to be easy, or possible, but try first the raisers Camping World sells.
I had motorhome who had toilet set with very small knee room and was very uncomfortable.
Even bigger toilet would not add kneeroom, but once I added the raiser, it made huge improvement.
I was skeptic about 2" or 3" raise making big difference, but it did.

When I was looking at a replacement, the local camping world had a number of models on the floor. It was suggested that if I had a particular sitting preference, just outline a rough template of the current favorable seat (don;t forget to jot down the preferred height) on some paper or cardboard and they can help find the "seat" that feels best for your posterior when sitting. They don't have the range of heights but even a single inch can make a difference in comfort when recycling your meals. Like anything you buy with such a personal feel, being able to see, touch and sample the goods is best.
