First complaint on the new 5er
The toilet stool is very low profile the seat is also very small.
Has any one replaced the toilet and if so what did you replace it with?
I have heard Aqua-Magic Style Toilets are almost like home.

It won't change the size if the seat but I have read you can buy a pedestal for the toilet to raise them up. Not positive what I have but I think that's the one in porcelain. Very nice.

Vicki & Ed,
I know of what you speak. I had the same problem. Went with a Sealand all china toilet. Just like home. Simple and easy install too.

We upgraded our toilet from A thetford hand flush to A Thetford foot flush and added the 2 1/2" risor that Thetford makes, Made A big difference.
Happy Camping!!!

We have the A-M toilet for over 3 years and we FT. It is nice and I recommend it. It comes in a low or high profile. You want the high profile. Never use harsh chemicals to clean. Use something like "scrubby bubbles". The harsh stuff deteriorates the ball seal and it won't hold water and will need replacement. The voice of experience. HTH Tom
