Some are turned off to composting toilets thinking they are all like smelly old outhouses.
After using a modern composting toilet, I think they are actually preferable to water toilets. This is because they use ventilation systems that actually draw a slight vacuum when the seat is up, making using one of these things actually more odor free than a water toilet.
If I was going to build a house and could convince the wife, this is the way I would go. If I had a holding tank that I had to pay to get emptied, I would definitely do it. Would rather send my gray water into the yard to make the yard/garden green, then soil it with crap and then pay to have it hauled.
Imagine how well your garden would do on that gray water and manure diet.
