Cuddy™ Shower Cap $75.00

Bamboo Seat Cover $199.95

Cuddy™ takes 12v, and we ship with the parts to be hard-wired via a 5.5 x 2.1mm plug, or you can plug it into the mains with an adapter.
If you want to move Cuddy™ around that's easy too. You can get a cig plug, or merit plug adaptor or even a USB to 12V cable with a 5.5 x 2.1mm plug from here. Cuddy™ will go anywhere. Cuddy™ is very efficient - draws about 0.3 amps.
It is ok if Cuddy is not connected to power all the time. If you store Cuddy in one place while travelling it could go without power and use it where there is power, or vice versa.
For the "pee full" indicator Cuddy uses a 9v battery, you will need to supply that.
Simple, a compost medium like hydrated coco coir, mini hemp, or wood shavings is all you need to get the composting process going. Just put the medium into the solids bin just covering the bottom of the agitator arms, and of you “go”!
If possible, to continue the composting process and to reduce landfill, bury the waste appropriately or add it to your own compost pile.
If you bury it please be responsible. Ensure it is at lest 100 metres away from a water source or camp site and at least 250mm down.
Solids from composting toilets may also be put in a biodegradable bag and disposed of in a regular rubbish bin*.
Cuddy™ is specially designed to make this step as quick and easy as possible. Liquids from
composting toilets can be poured down a regular toilet or onto the nearest thirsty looking mature tree!
* All waste should be disposed of according to local regulations, and with care and respect for the environment and the other people who enjoy it.

No, composting toilets do not smell when used properly. They will not stink out your van, boat, tiny home, camper, or cabin. The composted material looks and smells earthy—like a forest floor. When emptying the loo, there is no unpleasant odour, unless you’re one of those rare folks that don’t like forest floors.
There are many differing opinions about toilet paper. Should you or should you not put it in the compost? Do you need a special type?
For what it is worth we recommend where possible to try to keep it separate from the compost mix, it takes longer to break down and can fill up the solids bin more quickly.
We appreciate that might not always be possible for
whatever reason, so while any toilet paper will eventually break down, recycled single ply toilet paper seems to breakdown more quickly.
There are obviously a whole range of variables and factors that we can’t account for in this general advice – please give us a call on 0447 047 237, we are happy to discuss what option might work best for you.
We also appreciate that no matter what general advice we give, users will have their own preferences due to their unique circumstances. Those opinions are as valid as ours.
Remember: Both Cuddy™ and Cuddy™ Lite separate
solids and liquids, that is the most important thing. If you’re considering a travel toilet that does not separate, you will either have to use chemicals and a dump point, or you will be putting raw sewage into a bin or into the environment, please don’t do that.
Our general advice is as follows:
Full time use: Cuddy™ - You will have to empty less often, it will generally be more “pleasant”, and no need for plastic bags.
Regular use: Cuddy™ - After each trip you don’t have to worry about emptying the solids bin and the composting process will just continue. We have gone for 6 months between emptying our solids bin.
Irregular use: Could go either way, a Cuddy™ for the reasons outlined above, or a Cuddy™ Lite if you don’t want to or are unable to continue composting between trips.
Once in a blue moon: Cuddy™ Lite – Likely you will want to get all your kit cleaned and put away for next time.
Away with a group of
people all using your loo: Cuddy™ Lite – With heavy use over a short period very little composting will begin, and from our first-hand experience you will end up with a bin full of very fresh deposits that won’t be pleasant to empty.
If you can’t make a
decision, we suggest you go for the Cuddy™.
If you have A Cuddy™ and an additional solids bin without an agitator, you will have a Cuddy™ and a Cuddy™ Lite in one unit. It is the most versatile, fully optioned, and most affordable travel toilet in the world. It can adapt to any install, or portable application you can throw at it.
You can turn a Cuddy™ into a Cuddy™ Lite, but you can’t turn a Cuddy™ Lite into a Cuddy™.
