I was actually searching for something completely different but then this 'popped up' and I think it's actually a pretty damned good piece of kit. Not sure if this has been posted before?
Although you only get 10 bags they won't exactly be a problem to replace with other cheaper bio-degradeable alternatives, and if forced to move to an alternate shelter/camp/location and hole up I'd rather have one of these than a bucket and carrier bag. Weighing in at a kilo maybe not for the ultra light squad but for a family, especially with kids, worth the weight. £15.99 pretty cheap too.
I would worry its says takes up to 16 stone but for how long it is cardboard. Cardboard would wear over time and would not like to be sat on it when it collapssed. Suppose it would last 3 days for one person but for £16 get a folding shovel and dig a small hole. Then there is cleaning cardboard, one dodgy survivor curry night and that box is getting wrecked
I only weigh 12st and I reckon it'd last alot longer than a few days, alot more stable for wee uns to use than a bucket with some sort of seat arrangement. Bring the bag up and through and it wouldn't matter what kinda curry you had the night before lol. Difficult to get out and dig holes if you're 'holed up' in a building trying to be anon.
I still think it's a good idea, specially as it's foldable, but each to their own.

I actually used to work with a guy who would not pee in a urinal, he had to sit on a normal loo and even then he had to completely drape the inside of the bowl with loo roll all the way round so no porcelain showed and then he'd wrap the seat in the bloody stuff too, complete nightmare to work with took him ages, when he ran out of tea no one would give him a cup from their flasks, we all wanted to get done and home.
I reckon if TSHTF you should just grab all of your supplies, dump em in your bathroom and hole up in there lol. Fill the bath up with water, use handsink for a fire pit and have your usual john for the rest.
this could be a problem in a disaster.
