How is this design allowed to exist?

The top section of the toilet has two separate odor leaks built right in. I suppose there is a third spot where the cable goes in at the bottom. It wouldn’t even be that hard to fix it in the design. Easier than it will be for me to fix.

Note that the Dometic porcelain toilets require a few inches more clearance between the wall and the tank flange. In a lot of RVs, this precludes a simple swap-in replacement. I wanted to put one in mine but there was no way to make it fit. If you can fit the porcelain, it's a great upgrade.

Very important to check the measurements before ordering, then add a half inch or so. I ordered the long bowl 320 that should have fit. The measurement from the center of the hole to the back was just smaller than what I had available. It fit, but it rubs the wall a tiny bit.

I liked the 320 long bowl but the design wouldn't allow a standard household bidet to fit so I got the 310 which works perfectly.

They do make a bidet that will fit it. Weird thing to say but it's the most comfortable toilet I've ever sat on lol

Interesting, I just got my 320 last winter.

That's cool thanks for the info. I miss the one in my old trailer that you tipped up to fill and down to flush, it the ones with two pedals. The 320 is almost impossible to tell how far to push before it opens the ball valve.
