WAYYYY BETTER THAN AN OUTHOUSE! :)This product makes living in a "dry cabin" easier!!! The bags come in a roll, and tear off easily for use. I am not home much, so 1 a week is about all I need. The bags fit well inside a 5 gallon bucket, and the black color disguises the waste (YAY!). I use a specialty toilet seat on top (Reliance Products 9881-03 Luggable Loo Lid), which holds the bag in place. "Poo-pouri" sprayed inside the pail mitigates odors.When the bucket/bag is approximately one/third full, I lift the seat and tie off the bag. The bag usually has some condensation inside the bucket, but not from leakage.Overall, I am pleased with this waste solution. Without a doubt Green Elephant bags beat trudging through all kinds of weather (and COLD) to an Alaskan outhouse!
5Good ProductI just received a message saying that the product should be used within 12 months of purchase. If I had known this before I purchased them I would not have purchased so many. Not sure what to do now. My son goes camping twice a year and will not be able to use all the bags I bought within a year.
4Thin plastic bag. Plastic is a co-polymer that takes millions of years to biodegrade.I work in plastics manufacturing. These are thin plastic. It says so on the bag. Plastic is a co-polymer. All co-polymers take millions of years to biodegrade. They are biodegradable in that thin plastic takes 10 million years to biodegrade compared to a thicker trashbag that takes 20 million years to biodegrade.I believe that it's extremely misleading to say that these are biodegradable and there are no watchdog regulators to police this type of a claim.They might break down into microscopic particles of co,-polymer but that is not in any way more beneficial to the environment than a regular trash bag. I see the same claims being made for the dog bags that are sold on Amazon.I bought these for use in my RV toilet and they do work for that purpose so that I don't have to use my black tank but a roll of trash bags with a hundred bags in it costs a few dollars and is basically the same thing and has basically the same degree of biodegradability.The worst thing about these type of claims is that they will mislead people to bury these things in the wilderness and basically all you're doing is burying a thin plastic bag that will break down into co-polymers and go deep into the soil, eventually into the streams, Etc.
1GREAT BIODEGRADABLE BAG THAT CAN BE SIMPLY BURIED!These biodegradable potty bags were perfect for my needs. They are easy to tear from the roll, easily opens, and the scent is very pleasant keeping the bad smells away. I did, however, use a powdered gel as well. I placed a tall kitchen bag in the bucket first and snapped the lid over that then I opened the disposable bag and opened over the seat until the first use. After the very first use I twisted the top of the bag around a couple of times and layed it across the seat and lightly closed the lid holding the bag there until the next use. This prevents condensation from building up under the toilet lid. The price was very reasonable, too. Also, the company got in touch with me immediately making certain I was satisfied with their product. Very few business owners do that these days.
5Reliable Camping Toilet BagsI like the sturdiness of these bags, they are convenient and reliable. Well always take these bags with us camping and hiking!
5Very Light DutyThese are not heavyweight bags, they will tear very easily if you try to lift them out of the toilet without support. Make sure you take the bucket with you and dump it,
3it holds Poop!What can I say? It does what it's supposed to do which is to contain your stool & Urine. Some clumping kitty litter inside helps to keep anything from sloshing around. Remove it, tie it up, bury it or dispose of whichever way you want. Its biodegradable.
5Perfect with a 5 gallon bucket and Luggable Loo seatWe use these with a 5 gallon bucket, Luggable Loo seat and coconut coir. Works perfectly, no smell and we are both sensitive to odors. Put an inch or so of coir in the bottom of the bag, do your thing and then cover with some more coir. Tested from the mid 30's up to the mid 90's over 6 weeks in a self built campervan. Having the ability to pull over and quickly go or not get out during a rainy/ buggy night completely changed our camping experience.Bag lasts a maximum of 3 days using coir. Like a couple of reviews said, they are lightweight. That's because they are designed to be biodegradable. You take the bucket with you to the trash dumpster and dump it, don't try lifting the bag out of the bucket. After 3 days they will leak as they are beginning to degrade.
5Great Strong ProductI bought these for my little camper. I have to say I was a little worried. They don t feel strong. But they are!! I went cross country and had to use my portable toilet at a couple of campgrounds. These bags worked great! I also like the fact they are biodegradable! Good quality product.
5Work fine on our toilet frame.We are very environmentally conscious. We like the idea that these bags are biodegradable. The bags, along with biodegradable toilet paper, simplify our camping trips. Before getting them we had to haul the plastic bags in the bed of the pickup to a dumpster. Not fun or easy to do. Since getting these, we dig a shallow hole and bury the waste, because we know we are not damaging the environment.
