The Pett Toilet System A Review

For those who love to have their anal act together on the river (and for those in an ecosystem where waste transport is mandated), the Pett is a good way to go. We took ours north to the BC coast this year. It folds down to the size of a suitcase at about 7lbs and the set up is simple. The Wag Bag covers the seat and neatly accepts anything dropped into it. Seal it up (zip) and haul it out. The complete system comes with a privacy shelter, a storage/backpack and 15 Wag Bags.

If you need a field waste system that’s niftily portable and highly effective dealing with issues of hygiene and odor, this might be the way you want to go. The system has the endorsement and use by highly reputed relief and emergency organizations, always a good indicator. You can mix and match with the system, meeting privacy needs, weight considerations as desired. Overall we found it to be an idea worth developing.

Nitpickingly, the latches to keep the seat lid shut during transport were ineffective, but the only real issue we had with it was my wife’s. Perhaps she’s a bit anal on anal but she had me clean the ENTIRE seat superstructure. While the concept of the Pett is simple, the molding of the plastic seat and legs itself is anything but. It is a nightmare of honeycombed recesses and a bitch to thoroughly soap down. Frankly, it wouldn’t ordinarily be necessary to have to clean any but the most exposed surface area of the seat . . . but try telling my wife that.

MSRP: $383.95
