Car and Driver compared two portable dry toilets for car camping: the Boxio Composting Toilet and the OGO Nomad. Both are urine-diverting, waterless units. The Boxio is more compact (15.8 x 11.8 x 11.0 inches) and lightweight, but has a low seat height. The OGO Nomad (15.4 x 13.0 x 12.4 inches) offers a more comfortable seating position but is harder to disassemble. Recommendation: Boxio for short trips, OGO for extended van life.
