A Quick Rundown of Popular Thetford Qube Models
Thetford Corporation is known as the leading manufacturer of mobile sanitation products for vehicles including RVs, boats and trucks.
Priding themselves on creative design skills in conjunction with an ability to predict the market’s needs, Thetford has become renowned in the caravanning realm for their high-quality porta pottis, such as the increasingly popular Qube line.
The Qube 145
The Qube 145 is Thetford’s most basic Qube model.
Weighing 3.6 kilograms and featuring a medium-sized tank with a waste capacity of 12L, the Qube 145 is a lightweight and convenient portable toilet perfect for transporting along your travels.
While it can easily be stowed away under your caravan’s bunks, its small size makes it perfect for tent and car camping too.
The Qube 145’s seating height is advertised as “natural”, measuring approximately 324mm, and the exterior is coated in an attractive white-colored finish.

The next step up from the Qube 145 is the Qube 165.
Weighing 3.9 kilograms and featuring a large-sized tank with a waste-holding tank capacity of 21L, the Qube 165 is slightly taller than the 145, with a seating height advertised as 408mm.
Available in both white and ivory, the Qube 165 features a bellow flush mechanism, similar to its ancestral 145 model, as well as an identical flush water tank capacity of 15L.
It should be noted that the ivory models of the Qube 165 feature a waste-holding tank level indicator, while the white models DO NOT.
