SHOCKED - Cleaning Composting Toilet For The First Time - OGO VS Natures Head

[@elenalemanski155]

No mask, no closed shoes and no gloves! I’m impressed! 😂I closed my eyes as you were pulling it out of the toilet lol! Well done Jaylena! 😛

[@LeaveHerWild]

I’m dying!😂 Cheers to the brave ones 🍻

[@susiestokely3528]

No gloves No Bueno. Period.

[@Inaisola]

She doesn't even roll up her sleeves or tie her hair back!

[@par0104]

I said it before & will say it again, you, Jaylena, are amazing. You accept responsibility with a smile & a great attitude toward getting the job done. You deserve the very best. So proud of you! 😊

[@LeaveHerWild]

Thank you so much!!

[@lesleyhughes3174]

Sadly Jaylena, what goes in, must come out!😂 After five years in my van, it's got strangely ' part of life ' part of my ' housework '. I hope, in time, Isaac will be part of the poop brigade!!😅

[@LeaveHerWild]

No truer words lol

[@twowheelsdown2002]

We have the Ogo, and it’s great, but put locktite on the big screw on the bottom of the bucket! We noticed a smell and I opened it up and a pile of unmixed waste was on top 😮 The screw on the bottom that connects the gear to the agitator had come loose. So the agitator was not turning even though the motor was turning. This also happened to someone else I know. Simple fix. I put blue thread locking compound on the screw and it has been fine ever since. I check it just to make sure. Other than that, we are really glad to ditch the black tank hassle. We save water and don’t need to find dump stations. Easy to use and easy to clean and you don’t have to worry about a black tank hose bursting.

[@maxplanck9055]

That's bravery and confidence to empty a composting toilet in sandals and not care,must be a professional! Good job jaylena 😊✌️♥️🇬🇧

[@LeaveHerWild]

😂😂😂

[@janthistleinthewind7486]

I'm picking up all the dog poop in the yard after the spring thaw today. Compared to this job, that Ogo toilet isn't gross at all! I love the solid wall all around to the floor, so it's easy to wipe clean!

[@lesleyhughes3174]

I think that coconut husk material would be the most hygienic that you could ever use. I actually have a coconut husk matting under my mattress, to help with any moisture issues

[@ogocomposttoilet]

Jaylena, wow thank you for this video. We love how you were able to show how easy sustainable sanitation can be! You did a wonderful job. Best wishes → OGO™ Team

[@lyndabuchholz1216]

I have used a 5 gallon bucket lined with a plastic trash bag with kitty litter in it and it worked so well. The kitty litter absorbed the liquid and smell. I guess I should try coco coir.

[@bobbieyounce3851]

The toilet looks very easy to clean! Good choice!

[@mylifeinanutshell6931]

Just like a litter box 😼

[@MelanieRodriguez-ge8mr]

I have to say, I am very impressed not only with your grace toward such a sketchy chore but also with the way you presented the review. Kudos, best I've seen. I am curious, however, on how it will go after a bit of a ' blow out' usage situation that inevitably happens. Will you please give us an update after such a time please? It's like having the low down, nitty gritty on the worst case scenario situation that will give us viewers the full spectrum review and what to expect. I think the automatic power stir is great, but am interested in knowing if a manual emergency stir is an option for possible power failure situation. Thanks for sharing! PS. I have a feeling Isaac might need close to 9 mos timeframe to feel comfortable with the idea of changing the human catbox for obvious turn about reasons...lol 😂😆😂

[@wandae9906]

It's a crappy job, but someone has to do it!! 🤣 Thanks for sharing this aspect of bus life! It was a great idea for a video Jaylena! As always, sending hugs your way! 🤗

[@LeaveHerWild]

Glad you enjoyed it!😂

I use to clean ours in the semi there's not much to it I did ours every Sundays so I wouldn't forget to lol it's a mom thing you rock Jaylena Sweet Ember is growing so fast and becoming her own self such a happy sweet baby 👶 Love to you all

[@Lorelly5]

Cool that they’ve recreated a newer concept - nice looking toilet aesthetically too looks more modern and homier instead of camp style toilet - seems to be easy to maintain- -question - how was the smell ? thanks for showing us the ropes of how to work with it

[@LeaveHerWild]

Thanks! No smell!

[@jennifersumner89]

I just installed my new OGO. The bin is easier to remove from the front door rather than from the top.

[@LeaveHerWild]

Agreed, but we have a fixed urine diverter in the front part so we can only go from the top

[@enyardreems]

Ahhahaaah the philippino wussed out!!! I knew he was doing some really big talking while he was USING the toilet...Go Jaylena :)

[@LeaveHerWild]

Oh my gosh! I LOVE this comment! He sure was!😂😂😂

[@lesleyhughes3174]

AGITATOR might be the word you were seeking Jaylena 😊 🧡

[@LeaveHerWild]

Yep! Thanks!

[@alicejorgensen2429]

Activator, maybe...

[@lesleyhughes3174]

​​@@alicejorgensen2429 the ogo agitates, like a washing machine does and mixes the waste about through the coconut husk

[@joyannmace3141]

My favorite little family. Ember is getting so big ❤

[@Saskue78]

It is a fairly simple process an easier than cleaning cat litter boxes. It is something that has to be done though. The composting toilet has moved on a long way to make it easy clean. Awesome video.

[@steveeyou]

Thank you very much, very instructive. This videos is very usefull to make our final decision. Cheers

[@pnwrving9841]

Great video! I have this toilet, installed a few weeks ago but have not traveled so I have not used it yet. Actually watching someone else clean it was great. I knew it was an easy process. There is no need for "gloves" or shoes! Not sure what the issues are with the comments about that, all you are doing is dumping the contents into a trash bag! When diapers are changed, do you all of you wear gloves if you're cleaning a cat litter box do you wear gloves? Anyway, thanks for the video. I love my Ogo!

[@Trenchant468]

I think the OGO is a good choice. I made something very like the Nomad they make, using a 5 gallon bucket, a smaller deli bucket w coconut coir, and a smaller size clear detergent bottle from TJ’s. As a female (who sprays…🙁), I put a nylon tube in the bottle opening and a female urinal on top of that. I have a pool noodle around the rim, and a gamma lid if I take the noodle off. This works for me as a car toilet for occasional use. But if I have a need for more, I’m going with the OGO. Btw, that bottle can’t possibly be 24 oz. I’d check how much liquid they want added against the actual oz size of the bottle. Good on you for handling this, and the diapering, and the cat box.

[@freedomdove]

Good comparison, Jaylena. The Ogo does look better than the Nature's Head.

[@rosmariekdittmer-jerzy1044]

Jaylena, thank you for demonstrating this 'mysterious' feature.

[@lesleyhughes3174]

Toilet paper, trash can, yes. I do too 😊

[@claramullen]

Yep poop everyone does it so everyone should learn to clean up after themselves. Greatgrandma here raised four kids and eight grandchildren so poop is just an every day thing.

[@cherifew3485]

With your trash can use one of those hanging crystal toilet deodorizer’s for toilets hanging it in your trash can! It will deodorizer your trashcan! You can even use them in kitchen garbage cans!

[@arunakalu]

We are sold on this after watching your video. Thank You!!

[@pamelarw58]

Well done Jaylena & being a Mother you have experienced some messy nappies! Isaac must have sensitive tummy? 😍

[@Amie9176]

This is the composting toilet I want!

[@pattysuechandler-lindquist3159]

3/24/23: Great job Jaylena, we all have to use a Toilet, Thank God for "OGO", I believe it is because you are a mother now and it's how human body works💪👏Better than outside👏 Sincerely, Patty Sue in MARYLAND

[@Banagal]

I need to go back and watch the installation of the OGO to see how the urine diverter sets-up. You made it look pretty easy to empty it. I think I remember you have a gray tank for the urine...? Is that correct? Glad to see y'all are all snug in a beautiful home.

[@LeaveHerWild]

It should be on isaacs channel! And yes!

[@gmacook8095]

❤❤❤good job,made it look so easy

[@windspan20]

Why do you need the water to be in spray bottle? Are you supposed to spray the 24oz of water as its spinning?

[@MelissaJohnson23408]

I'm building one and I'm getting the BOX with lot's of air fresheners LoL 🎉 I was thinking about OGO but I want to try out my handy work and a cheaper version first.

[@ShugTexas]

exactly what ive been looking for. thanks for the 50 😁and review

[@ClissaT]

That coconut peat that you put in the pot was already moistened. It didn't need the water. Coconut peat comes in a large compressed super dry block that has to be broken apart or else buy retail in small super dry blocks and soak to get it to that lovely fluffy consistency that you poured into the pot. I'm sure you don't need to give it extra water when you use that made-up coconut peat. As I'm sure you already know there should be no smell/odour come from the pot when you empty it and there should not be any need to wash the pot out either. The composting process uses beneficial bacteria to begin the composting process and if you wash the pot out you get rid of all of that so it has to start all over again. If it can be allowed to compost naturally you should easily be able to go 28days before emptying. There didn't seem to be much in the pot this time which I assume was the first use? So if you left the residue in the pot it would help the next batch compost quicker and better. So no need to wash the pot after emptying.

[@lagrenouillerose6862]

I can't believe how easy it is to empty and clean. Kisses from France ♥♥♥

[@LeaveHerWild]

It really is!

[@lagrenouillerose6862]

I looked on amazon if in France we also found crushed coconut because it must be very interesting as litter for my cats... But no in France where I can't find... Well it's a bit normal because we don't have the nomadic culture at all like you... Even if it's starting to come a little... Currently I use wood pellets made normally for stoves and it's the top of the top but your crushed coconuts look even better as litter for cats.@@LeaveHerWild

[@LeaveHerWild]

@@lagrenouillerose6862 interesting thought for kitty litter!

[@lagrenouillerose6862]

I don't know where you are but in France the pellets apart from being completely natural and without the smell of litter are much cheaper than bags of litter (well I have a cat when she goes to poop it's still 5 minutes or you have to hold your nose, but the wood absorbs the smell very quickly) and I need to change it much much less often. It is doubly economical. Since I started using pellets, my litter bill has been divided by four.@@LeaveHerWild

[@1stLtDanielBeam]

Can you tell me where you purchase your pre made coco coir cases? That's a great idea...Great video.

[@GQUATTRADITIONZS]

[@KittysLifeAdventures]

I have been pretty squeamish about composting toilets in the past. After watching your video, I don’t think it’s that big a deal to clean. I do wonder what you did with the “dirty” bag? I always learn something from you guys

[@gmacook8095]

Jaylena you have such a great attitude

[@JustMuah57]

wow thanks for sharing that it is easy .. great job

[@ellyntallon2255]

Hey jaylena fyi.. :D the average disposable water bottle is 16 oz which looks bigger than the spray bottle you used plus ya need another 8 oz. To make the 24 oz.

[@grannyontheplane]

Jaylena great job but I have a question. Did you say 2-4 oz or 24oz of water to be added? a large baby milk bottle is 8oz so I think you should be putting waaaay more water in the compost ( the bottle you used looked about 6oz. Also do not use three ply paper, two ply paper and more moisture in the bucket will stop the agitator from clogging up as it turns. I am sooooo happy that your new home is working so well for you - you are doing an amazing job, and Ember clearly loves it too.

[@LeaveHerWild]

24, which is actually about two of the bottle that I used

[@grannyontheplane]

@@LeaveHerWild it just shows how different things look on youtube then! I would never have thought that was a 12oz bottle lol! ( plus I am european so know metric better lol!) xx

[@grannyontheplane]

[@lindamiller5489]

Wow you still got snow...it's spring here in Alabama ❤

[@LeaveHerWild]

Yea! It snowed all night!

[@margienieuwkerk]

I put a plastic garbage bag in my bucket, and when done, just tie up the bag and get rid of it, that way I don't even need to clean the bucket.

[@lesleyhughes3174]

Not so easy for more than person. Solo is fine

[@no_worries_van]

I have a natures head in my bus, I put the toilet paper in the trash mainly because the compost lasts longer without it in there. I will probably get the ogo or trelino for my van I am building out.

[@LeaveHerWild]

I think it lasts longer that way too!

[@lesleyhughes3174]

It's the same with my cassette toilet. It lasts for 5 days not adding the toilet paper. It doesn't take long as a full time nomad to find ways around things , to save space, time and money!😊

[@rvirnig8469]

Maybe want to measure the amount of fluid you can put in the bottle? Love your home!

[@elainegmorrison]

[@goldenoldies8324]

Hi Jaylena. I just want to say that I would only have a Cinderella toilet 🚽🚽🚽 they look so easy and quick to clean as you just do your buisness and press a button that macerator which burns every thing to ashes. I have not used one but for me I think that visitors would have no problem using it. No smell and when it comes to emptying it there is nothing to throw away apart from ashes hence the name Cinderella toilet. It's obviously a personal thing but I have become really grossed out with things like that, to the point that I actually wretch.. I have had three children and it never bothered me at all but now I am hopeless.!! LOL. I have not commented on your channels for some time but I never miss watching your videos and Isaacs. Just wanted to say that I love 💘💘💘💘💘💘your new home and I am really looking forward to seeing you and the family visiting the fifty states 😂😂😂. EMBER WILD will learn so much and I hope Isaac will play lots of music 🎶🎶🎶. I have heard Isaac singing on two other channels.
