Cuddy vs OGO: What Makes Cuddy Different
At Compo Closet, we often get asked how Cuddy compares to the OGO composting toilet. Both are designed with off-grid, mobile living in mind and both aim to make sustainable sanitation easier. OGO has been on the market for some time and has helped grow awareness of waterless composting toilets, which is something we respect.
When we developed Cuddy, we set out to solve some of the little challenges that come with everyday use. Here are the key differences that make Cuddy unique.
Space Saving Installation
Cuddy sits flush against the wall, helping you maximise valuable space in your setup. This small design detail makes a big difference in compact caravans, vans, and tiny homes.
The Biggest Drop Zone
With Cuddy, you don’t need sprays or constant cleaning. The larger drop zone means you can simply relax and focus on your book, not your aim.
Effortless Emptying
Emptying shouldn’t be a chore. With Cuddy, just lift the seat to access both the liquids and solids bins. No kneeling, unclipping, or sliding panels required.
Smart Solids Bin Cover
We designed a protective cover for the solids bin, preventing overflow or “flickage” during use; something small, but a big help in keeping things tidy.
One-Way Liquids Valve
Cuddy’s one-way valve keeps things flowing in the right direction. No odours, no splash-back, even on rough roads.
Clean, Easy Liquids Emptying
The liquids bottle has a dedicated outlet. As liquid pours out, air flows in through the valve, preventing any “glugging” and unwanted splashes on your shoes.
Pee-Full Indicator
Cuddy’s pee-full light is located on top, easy to see in the daytime without having to bend down or guess.
Simple Manual Agitation
Cuddy uses manual agitation. No electronics means no risk of being “up a certain creek without an agitator”.
Designed for Easy Cleaning
The base has no seams or joins, so a quick wipe-down is all it takes. Simplicity equals hygiene.
Installable or Portable, Without Compromise
Cuddy is installable or portable, without compromise. Cuddy is the only fully functional composting toilet in the world that does both.
Two Styles of Toilet in One
With the addition of a solids bin without an agitator you get two styles of toilet in one: a fully functional composting toilet with the agitator, and a layering/collection method without the agitator.
Aesthetics Matter
This one’s subjective, but we believe Cuddy simply looks great in any space. Clean modern lines make it feel less like a utility and more like a lifestyle product.
So...
Both Cuddy and OGO share the same mission: to make composting toilets a practical, eco-friendly alternative to traditional chemical systems. Where Cuddy shines is in the little details that improve day today living, from emptying and cleaning, to space saving installation and user comfort.
We designed Cuddy with simplicity, reliability, and style in mind. If you’re looking for a composting toilet that fits seamlessly into your life and setup, Cuddy might just be the perfect fit.
