I've been doing some research on this for a campervan build I'm considering (still haven't decided yet).
We ended up buying for experimental purposes a thetford curve. It's what everyone would call a porta potty. It works well (used it in a rented van over the memorial day weekend). To empty you just pull the bowl part off the top, and then take the bottom part to an appropriate dump station. All a cassette toilet is is a porta potty arranged such that the tank can be removed through a hole in the side of the vehicle. If you look at demos on youtube of emptying the thetford curve and also those of emptying a cassette toilet they're virtually identical. It's more of a form factor thing. Oh, and some of the casette toilets seem to have a larger seat. If we end up building a campervan, we'll likely just stick with the curve on a pull-out drawer/shelf somewhere. I like the idea of being able to take the whole thing out and wash it, as opposed to a fixed thing you have to clean in the cramped space of the van.
