This is far better than a 5 gallon bucket! The OGO Compost Toilet.

[@gonagain]

Like I mentioned in the video, Linda and I did use a bucket and sawdust for years, so we are well aware of what the bucket toilet is like. These compost toilets are a whole lot better than that! If you're traveling by yourself then the bucket might be ok, but if you are with someone else then it's nice having a system that you can use inside without driving the other person out into the cold dark night to get away from the smell. The cost is because it's made in America and not China. People with black tanks on board especially find these to be a simpler and cleaner alternative.

[@mannys4036]

Sorry I struck a nerve which was not my intention. As I am well aware having using the bucket system differently than yourself it doesn't have to smell if you had modified the way you used it. But I'm sure it's easier to justify this expensive toilet if you sponsor it and get it for free. I wonder how you would feel if you had to pay out of your pocket for it. You left that out. But to each his own.

[@derekrichard9189]

@manny I agree

[@donwyates]

Yeah, traveling solo has it's advantages, and disadvantages. I don't think there's anyone out there that would put up with me for an extended period of time - so "win" (?) for me! 😆 I know how bad odors can be when it's just me. I have a large Viddle Vault (gamma lidded container meant for pet food) that I transport waste from camp to disposal so I don't have to smell it any longer than absolutely necessary.

[@herblapp6134]

I've gotta agree. I've been subscribing since day l. I liked them as an older but still cute couple. They seemed to emphasize minimizist thinking. They were on a tight budget as most of us are. Rick you told us that on several occasions. But once the platform started gaining a following the product reviews started rolling out. Yes it helps pay the bills but....l turned off for awhile Rick when you reviewed one lithium ion battery packs after another. You're fair but it felt like the latest one was the best. For all practical purposes they're darn close. But l see several power stations laying around. So yes some luster came off the bloom. Now we're into the electric bikes. Yes neat but about $2 grand not hardly minimalist now it's a pooper for a grand! I have a 6x10x6 WeeRoll original Nomad model built using steel not aluminum. Sure l'd prefer the alum. trailer but with my retirement budget forget it...same with solar. I use 4 6V lead acid boat anchors....heck the lithium ion babies were a grand or more. Again a budget buster. I take care of my batteries but if l didn't l cud easily replace them and still afford gas. Yes l traded off first cost and threw it out into a higher operating cost...but extra gas didn't bankrupt me...even when its price soared. I couldn't predict lithium would be so.much less expensive...and ld have been home bound till the price dropped. I purchased a couple of lithium power banks to supplement but l haven't had any things l needed to put them out. So l love you two kids to bits...wish l lived closer to Montana rather than Pennsylvania but we stay virtial friends via your channel. Pls don't forget your roots.....

[@australianwoman9696]

I for one would prefer this cleaner system! It's fantastic in its design & flexibility! Yes there's an outlay but when it comes to something like POOP no price is too high to make sure that poop stays FAR , FAR away! 😂

[@jaquelinebiggs3394]

I've just come across your channel. I lived on a narrowboat in the UK for a decade. Our boat was built with a cassette toilet which packed up after 6 years. We researched compost toilets and we met boaters who had an Airhead marine compost toilet. We decided to purchase one and it only took 2 hours to install and hook up the fan. Ten years later the compost loo continues to work beautifully with no smell. I wanted to share a urine bottle cleaning hack. Denture tablets will remove any build up inside the bottle. Once a month drop 2 denture tablets into the emptied and rinsed out urine bottle. Fill with water not quite to the top and let it sit for an hour or so. The longer the better. Empty out, rinse and you are good to go.

[@MomCheeto4]

Yes, indeed! The 5 gallon bucket/pine pellet system seems WAY less complicated (not to mention WAY WAY cheaper) to use than a composting toilet. I've been using one at my bedside for several years. As a Senior, I've had some urgent, middle-of-the-night times when I knew my bladder just couldn't make the walk down the hallway it in time. Unless you're slow about emptying it (I'm talking more than 3 days), yes, it will start to smell but thus far, I've had absolutely no trouble with odor or disposing the bag. As far as comfort, well, if you're simply sitting on the rim of a bucket, sure, it's not comfortable!. Just purchase one from the companies that make them with a toilet-like seat and a lid and you'll be just fine!

[@jackspratt44]

I use a 5 gallon bucket and plastic bag with pine shavings from the feed store. Its pet bedding. With grey pipe foam for the rim to sit on. My family uses this when things get down below freezing and we shut off our well and empty the hot water heater and drain the pipes so nothing can freeze.

I get the price shocks most but like you said, the market is small and the customer who would see the value are those who do live this lifestyle full time or most of the year. Weekenders would probably not care to spend the money and would rather use a bucket. However, those who boondock, those who enjoy not having tanks on board and those who live this life style or have fishing camps, hunting camps would probably want to invest in this toilet. Great review and I'm glad you like it! Made in the 🇺🇸 and a 5 yr warranty is awesome!

[@christinanavarre8389]

For me at 65 with a 30 ft 2006 Coachman Camper I only paid $2000 for 3 years ago. I can't justify that price for me. I live on a lot less than that OGO costs, every month. Living in Northern Michigan I have a bathroom with a toilet. But no water hookup in winter of course. So its a plastic handle tie grocery bags and pine pellets, Soaks up urine with no odor as well as the solids. Goes out in the trash with the kitty litter also pine pellets. A box of the grocery bags cost $18 at Sam's club for 1000 bags. That I can handle. You are great at explaining the product and if it was in my budget , something I needed...I would surely buy one. Simply because of your great presentation.

kitty litter works well enough, and urine should always go in a separate container. If you're actually in a desert, excrement will dry up in two days or so. So just go and bury it. 1200 for a crapper is ridiculous!

[@shadowcastre]

@@vonjunzt4130 There really is no need to have the urine go into a separate container. Use the correct dry media with 10% kitty litter. Throw in a sprinkle of bread yeast & an oxidizer now and then and you'll be good to go. Urine diverters are a pain!

[@Kayte...]

@@shadowcastre Bread yeast? Interesting. What does it do?

I use pool float tubes to cover the rim (cut to size) on the 5 gal bucket.. and kitty litter of any kind does wonders on odor instantly. Just have some in the bag to absorb and add some after it's used. Cover the 5 gal bucket with the handy lid until ready to dispose of.

Perfect for camping and potential grid down scenario. For all of the regular use, how nice to have it aerated, mixed and simple to slide out to dump.

[@twowheelsdown2002]

We actually got the OGO in January. It works great. I want to give you a heads up to check something though. I noticed some odor and figured it was time to empty. I was mortified to open it and there was a pile of unmixed waste on top. 😮I pushed the button and the motor was going but the agitator wasn’t moving. After emptying and cleaning I found that the screw at the bottom of the bucket had come loose allowing the gear to disengage. It was an easy fix fortunately. I applied thread locking compound to the screw, and will double check it when emptying from now on. Might be a good idea to get some spare gear parts to keep on hand just in case as well.

[@gonagain]

Thank you for that heads up; that actually happened to our friend, and he told us about it so we were watching for it. Also, he let OGO know about it too.

[@Canoecamper]

With a great demo like that everyone should be able to decide if this apparently well-built unit is worth the price. My concern is about the electrical components which are guaranteed for 1 year and I'm not talking about the exhaust fan, which I think would be fairly reliable and easily replaceable. I'm talking about the electric agitator that mixes the peat and poop and the sensor that tells you if the pee container is getting full. If the pee volume sensor fails you could guess when it's time to empty, but if the electric agitator fails, there doesn't seem to be a backup way of mixing the peat after each usage. If I were with the OGO company I'd make the unit with a window to monitor the pee level and I'd have a mechanical backup for the electrical mixer.

[@lshwadchuck5643]

Yes, I'd rather hand crank it for 45 seconds.

[@eugeniebreida]

Good points, hope OGO is reviewing this intelligent critique! Obviously, where electrical can be eliminated, that’s a WIN win. As to the electrical mixer, tthat too could have a hand-crank option? Per @chuck’s comment previous . . . OGO - get on the stick, get rid of the ‘snazzy’ modern electrical ‘conveniences’. We can’t see that little red light on the side anyway… 20:50

[@Chimonger1]

Add worms to the solid buckets; those abate coliform bacteria, & compost the solids faster. That also reduces the bulk of the solids, so, it reduces how often the solids need emptied.

[@joycebowen8958]

As a gardener I suggest using the European Red Worms. These are far more aggressive than American ones when it comes to breaking down the solids. I use them in my gardens and in my compost pile.

[@Chimonger1]

@@joycebowen8958 🤔Wonder why those are more vigorous? 🤔Where can anyone in the US get them? 🤔Would they be an invasive species? …..But yes…..red worms that live in the top several inches of dirt, are the ones most able to abate coliform bacteria that health departments worry about. That means, if your composting toilet uses red worms to help break down the solids, it composts faster, & cleaner. Ana Eddy, from “Solviva”, discovered this, & invented 2 kinds of composting toilets using them. …One handles an old, gallons/flush toilet upstairs in their farmhouse. ….The other one has a 9-bucket worm compost bin in a greenhouse, that never requires manually cleaning the buckets, because worms do it.

It does look interesting..! I've never had the issues with the 5 gal bucket toilet that you spoke of... 1) No bad smells when vented.. 2) Super easy cleanup/disposal with a bag.. 3) Proper 1 ply septic safe T paper breaks down no problem, no separation needed.. 4) I never use a urine diverter, they're a pain. 5) I've been using dry sawdust & kitty litter 90/10 and a sprinkle of bread yeast now and then... 6) Anchor the toilet with a small box frame for the bucket to sit in, bungee the lid down for travel... No fuss no muss! 7) I use a real toilet seat. Lift it off for cleaning/disposal, new bag, Snap it back in place.. 8) Finally.. if the bucket ever fowls. Replace it, they are cheap and everywhere.. I do like the idea of peat moss... I'll have to try that! For the simplicity and keeping it affordable.. I'll be sticking with the 5 gallon bucket system. With my bucket toilet cost savings over a compost toilet, I can now justify spending the money on the lockout hub conversion kit for my 4x4 Ram which will get me 2 to 3 mpg increase. Thanks for the video...

Stick with the sawdust. Peat moss harvesting damages the environment and it also takes a very long time to develop. Don't remember how long, could be 1,000s of years, maybe more, maybe less. Check it out when you have time.

Agree, pray miss is not environmentally sound but coconut coir is a better alternative but I’ve never had an issue with sawdust tho!

[@Tryagain205]

One huge advantage of this system is the weight advantage; lifting a cassette tank (my current toilet) that weighs 20-40 pounds and trying to pour the waste out takes a lot of coordination, not to mention bravery, is a painful process but the celebration when I don't spill or splash waste on myself when dumping is something to behold, unfortunately I have to be half drunk to build up the bravery to empty that thing...This OGO will be in my next camping rig.

If I go # 2, I'll tie it off, just in case I need to leave in a hurry. $6 of pellets lasts a long time. Tossing a bag occasionally vs. emptying a full bucket seems so much easier to me. I'm glad there are so many options, as everyone has their own preferences. I look at every option that is reviewed, but at the end of each, I prefer my good old fashioned bucket, which can also be used to gather firewood, haul water if needed, can double as an extra seat, can be used inside or outside, etc., no mechanical failure, easy to replace if it should ever require it, etc. So many advantages for my own personal purposes, and the least expensive option by far.

Is true of any toilet. You have to clean your toilet no matter what type.

The hole is large and well positioned. Hasn’t been an issue for us in 2 months of use. A regular RV toilet was worse. After flushing there was always residue around the ball valve and you had to add more water and use a toilet brush and flush again. We find the OGO to be comfortable and the opening is well designed.

@@carolmoore1038 I use a 5 gallon bucket with a luggable loo type seat which is comfortable. I line it with a garbage bag and I put in pine pellets. There is nothing to clean. You simply remove the bag and throw it away. I’m glad that there are lots of options so people can choose what they want. But for me, a standard 5 gallon bucket with a luggable loo type seat still gets my vote. I have seen the 5 gallon buckets that are taller and not as large in diameter. I do think those can be a little bit top-heavy, but the standard 5 gallon bucket that you buy at Home Depot is very stable. Plus, I have mine inside one of those collapsible ottomans, which provides additional structure to keep it from sliding across the van. Because I am a campground camper, I found it easy just to throw away the bags. If I were Boondocking, I would use some of those BOS Bags to contain the odor. Those things really do work well.

Thanks this would be great for a off grid lifestyle ..quick set up.. is expensive but so is a plumber..great products do cost more. I love your product reviews KOKO keep on keeping on greetings from NC

Thanks, Candy!

Bucket wins! My bucket has a very comfortable seat, so I don't understand the comparison at all. We even built our own composting systems in the house and the camper van. While backpacking, we just use the trowel and squeeze bottle bidet method, away from habitation or water sources.

Great video. Great product!

Outstanding presentation, you were not rushing the information and you described each section of the toilet. I've just subscribed to your channel this morning. I noticed that this topic was presented a year ago. I'm going to check out your other videos as well. Next to Bob Wells you are a valuable presenter. Best wishes on your channel.

Thank you and welcome to our channel!

I had something inappropriate to say but I didn’t want to have a potty mouth. LOL. Nice seeing Ohio companies make quality products

- BTW, that’s my backup KZbin channel. I created it in case the main channel goes down. KZbin has been giving strikes to lots of gun channels recently

[@brotherkith]

Looks like a very complex unit for the job it has to do. I'll stick with my bucket system!

[@mannys4036]

I agree; this is whimsical.

[@kenhoyer8601]

@@mannys4036 Yeah, you don't have to make something so simple so complicated.

Very nice built product...Great revue...

[@TayeIm]

Thank you for the great, simple, and clear to understand video. We all have different ideas on what is cost effective and where we would spend our money. I would easily invest in this type of a set up. If tying a bag each time, or trying to pour a cassette toilet treasure down a public toilet is your thing, go for it. The benefit of staying out longer without the need of a hook up or paying to dump is not my idea of a fun camping experience.

[@gonagain]

Well said! Thank you for watching.

[@wrxs1781]

The revue was well thought out and put together, this item is of great interest and is something I had yet to decide on and purchase.

[@brianrose2487]

Congratulations on 50k!

[@gonagain]

Thank you!! 👍

[@livinginthenow]

This is very well presented, but it seems like a waste of money to me. If you were living in a stationary off grid situation, and planned to be composting all your waste, it might be worth it. But if you are planning on throwing away or burying the contents anyway (rather than composting it), you're better off building a box to hold your bucket and jug, installing a computer fan and hose system if you so desire, putting a comfy toilet seat on top, and then using the same peat moss, coconut coir, etc. the expensive model uses. Why pay $1150 when you can build something for a tenth of that which will work just as well?

[@vickiescharlow8015]

Thank you so very much for walking us through this this is something that I really need to look into we’d love to camp

[@lisaryder1668]

Fabulous, thx for the info and great demo. When I decide to get out there this will be the John I choose👍

[@katcher-pj6hj]

Great review and I support American made. Getting an truck camper this year and gonna put the OGO in it. Thank you!

[@KarlsLabReport]

Looks well designed - thank you for this well done video!

[@sharir1679]

Really good review, you do them well.

[@thomasconwaysr.9734]

Thank You and Linda for what you do. Great reviews Thank you again. have fun stay safe and stay warm.

[@719Rasta]

Looks to I that there could be cleaning situations with this that immediately makes me want to go back to simple 5 gallon bucket with sawdust and plastic bags. Hmmm and the price, well convenience, comfort, and no odor cones with a price, but then what about cleaning, no thanks. Nice review tho, you have great videos

[@paulabrown5243]

Looks like a great product.

[@COGirl444]

Ooohh! This looks like a great option

[@davec9244]

Thank you. I like it, but wondering if that have one with a mechanical crank, for mixing? ALL stay safe

[@piratelongfellow9459]

Look at the Trelino. Less than half the price without the stirrer. KZbin videos. Mine was shipped from Wenatchee WA

[@gonagain]

The fact that it mixes the solids with the coconut coir or peat moss is why it doesn't smell bad.

[@davec9244]

@@gonagain yes I don't like the motor part if no electricity a hand crank, to mix would be nice too

[@davec9244]

@Crabbing, Clamming & Boat Camping "DOUNUTS" YUM!

[@terisalund3367]

A piece of cheese cloth works well for a vent screen & a little Diatomaceous earth mixed into compost tank takes care of any bug or flies that might get into it.

[@christigoodeating]

Sounds like a really good toilet and I feel like it’s worth the price!

[@gmb5370]

Great review! I can't afford it but it's looks to be a good product! I use a pee container and a porta potty with natural oils for smell. If I don't have a safe place to dump I can put the waste in a black bag with peet moss and dispose of it in a garage station not at gas station garbage cans! Here in Montana as you know we have many safe ways of getting rid of our waste. If I was with a partner it might be a little different! Happy travels my friend's!

[@gonagain]

Our bucket system was not nice when you have 2 people in a small trailer and it has to be used inside. For the 2nd person.

[@gmb5370]

@@gonagain I totally get that my friend! Thanks for the reply!

[@Chubbydippin]

Great segment, thankyou. That "scene" of Linda walking behind you holding a shovel and a partially unrolled roll of tp like a kite flying in the wind was priceless. Cohen Brothers esk cinematography. Price is steep for mainly plastic. But seems about right for the "going" rate. 500lb. rated? I would hate to be near when Jabba the Hutt was down loading some data. Only real issue I saw was how you had to put your hand in the solids bucket to pull it out. This segment should've been titled, "When Gone Again's gotta go again." Thanks once more. Safe and happy travels to you both.

Great review, including detailed . of product and how it works in real life situation

[@victorperreault217]

Very good tutorial , sound like a good product .

[@BuckJones1909]

Thank you for a very informative video! I’ve just subscribed to your channel! We are looking forward to watching more of your videos! Take care and be well!

[@gonagain]

Awesome! Thank you for subbing to our channel, Don!

[@JennyCoyote]

Interesting option for a couple in an RV build. Pro tip from a gardener for ya; you can also open the top of the peat / coir bag and add water directly to it / agitate easily. Thanks for the video 👍

[@gonagain]

Thanks for the tip!
