Has anyone had any experience with these - on a Mac 25 ideally?

Our Porta Potti needs replacing, and I'm looking at ones like Natures Head. Either that or putting in a holding tank. I've gotten tired of the hassle of using a pump out hose to empty them, when there no place to "dump."

They seem tall enough, that height may be an issue.

On my 26 M I installed a Nature's Head this past summer after wife complained about our previously installed 5 gal. porta pottie w/ pumpout. 4 trips of 3 to 4 days (2 people) I decided to empty it even though it wasn't full, lo and behold out came non stinky soil (I was prepared for the worst)!!! 3 trips later it's certainly good for 1 or more trips (it being September) . Only downside is you need to empty the pee jug every two days. We are glad we put it in, a great solution to "pumpout anxiety"! :dance:

What about how tall the unit was? Was it awkward to sit down on, relatively gently?

Of course this is on a 26M. There is a small "shelf" in the head compartment, the 5 gal. PP sat on that. I installed the Natures Head in front of the shelf and the height is about the same ie: 6 footers may need to lean forward slightly. I had made a cardboard mock up before I bought to check out clearances. On the 26M I removed the claustrophobic door and replaced w/ curtain that stretches the width if the boat.
