Question 1

can bowl be filled and then flushed

Accepted Answer

No, but the bowl does collect about 1-2 inches of water in the bottom. When the bottom seals up the water still runs for a second or two and the water stays in the bottom for upto a week with out draining out. You can also let more water in by slighly touching the foot pedal allowing water to come in to the bowl but not opening the seal. So it will not work like your house toliet but it does have a great seal that will allow you to manipulate it to funtion almost like your house toliet.

Question 2

I am 280 lbs and I need a toilet big enough to not just sit on but wipe also. Being blunt is the only way to find out. Will this one work?

Accepted Answer

Great question... I am also looking for a residential size toilet, with a full size, elongated bowl...  The only RV toilet that I've found so far, is the Dometic 320 series...  But, for some reason, NONE OF THESE MANUFACTURERS LIST THE DISTANCE FROM THE CENTER OF THE DRAIN HOLE, TO THE BACK WALL... They do NOT all fit...  The Dometic 320 would not fit in my camper, as it is about 3 full inches too long, from the middle of the drain, to the wall behind the toilet... But, you need to contact each manufacturer, to get their individual specs, as NOBODY LISTS THESE SPECS...  Very poor planning on EVERY manufacturers part!  Turns what could be a quick sale, into a nightmare, trying to find something that will work!  The height does not really matter... In most cases, the width does not really matter... In most cases, the overall length does not matter... BUT THE DISTANCE FROM THE CENTER OF THE DRAIN, TO THE BACK WALL MOST DEFINITELY MATTERS...

Question 3

Can the seat be replaced with a standard toilet seat?

Accepted Answer

It does have standard width mounting holes for the toilet seat so you could replace the seat with anything you want from a home improvement store.

Question 4

Does this unit come with a closet flange seal or does that have to be purchased separately?

Accepted Answer

The toilet comes with a new seal and flange bolts.
