I got this off of Amazon cause I needed a place to urinate outside at my house. I live on a busy road and there is not a 'private' place to out of doors. So I got this and mounted it in the corner of my shed. Its a good idea but it ignores certain laws of physics. The top bottle ; full of the washing water, has a tough time draining down because there is no breather hole in it. dump a 20oz soda bottle upside down on the ground and you can see the "gurging" effect as it drains. It is much worse in the Porta-P unit; coming out in fits and spurs. I punched a small hole in the top part of the water bottle, and because then it could get air as it drained, the flushing mechanism worked just fine. The bottem 'catch' bottle suffers the same problem. As you "use" the Porta-P; fluid has a tough time going into the bottle because of the trapped air in it. A breather tube would fix this problem and should be designed into the Porta-P. It might make the urinal cost more money but would make it function properly and not cause an overflow or splashback of the unit. I am working on my own modification now.
Got this to use at football game tailgates. We have a portable "pee tent" we set up when tailgating which has a commode (basically a bucket with a small snap-on seat). But keeping the seat splatter-free was always a pain and a source of complaints from our female tailgaters.
So... we modified this stand-up urinal to use along side the commode. Mounted it on a sturdy stake which we can drive into the ground to support it, removed the bottom bottle and fit a hose which routes to the side of the commode bucket (so no problems with the catch bottle as I've heard others complain about). Also, as another reviewer suggested, we punched a small breather hole in the top flusher bottle which makes it work much better without the vacuum gurgle...
Much easier for men to use and no more complaints from the gals. We all win.

Install this product a couple of years ago in my elevated deer blind. I installed it on my inside wall, drilled a hole the floor and piped a line into a hole filled stone. Works great! Highly recommend its simplicity.
