The Sun-Mar unit is perfect for one person, two can overwhelm it's capacity
to process liquids.
Air is always being pulled down into the toilet when you open it, it is the
only toilet I have ever used
that you never get any smell. Liqiud processing is fast, solids slow with a
cycle of 4-6 months. When finished you open the door, pull out the drawer
(*no smell), take it outside and throw it on the ground.
Each solid use of the toilet gets a a small coffee can full of peat moss and
a spray of enzyme then you spin the drum. You will hear all kinds of stories
but I think most problems come from bad peat moss, I have always used the
manufacturers peat and have never had problems with mine.
