Features
Details from the OGO Origin Amazon listing:
- SMALLEST FOOTPRINT FOR TIGHT BUILDS (15"x16") Designed for Sprinter/Transit vans, tiny homes & boats where space is everything. The OGO fits corners other composting toilets can’t—no bulky side crank, no redesigning your bathroom. More legroom, cleaner layout, modern appliance look.
- PUSH-BUTTON ELECTRIC AGITATOR = ZERO CRANKING 12V motor mixes solids with one tap—no manual handle, no mess, no chore after every use. Better breakdown, better odor control, effortless daily routine. Feels like a real toilet, not a campsite workaround.
- URINE-DIVERTING = NO BLACK TANK SMELL Liquids separate to a 2.4-gal bottle while solids stay dry in the rear bin (25–30 uses). Dry waste = no sewage odor, safer storage, and confident hosting in your van or tiny home.
- MADE FOR REAL OFF-GRID LIFE Built in the USA from durable polypropylene. Quiet fan ventilation, low 12V power draw, simple emptying, and serviceable parts. Perfect for full-time van lifers, retro-fit RV owners, marine cabins, and off-grid couples.
- MODERN DESIGN, NOT PORT-A-POTTY VIBES Clean Scandinavian-style aesthetic that belongs in a premium build. Go anywhere, smell nothing, crank nothing—upgrade your rig with the “smart toilet” built for civilized freedom.
