Saniflo toilets

We’ve had one for 10 years with no problems.

Daughter in law has a downstairs one and sensible kids and visitors. She also has MANY notices around the little room to tell people to deposit only excretions and soft toilet paper in the loo. No wipes, papertowels, STs, or Tampax.

My GD was terrified of theirs when she was small. Noisy.

We had one in our French house 2nd bathroom and it gave no trouble at all. Needs a notice 'Put nothing down the loo unless it's been through you (except loo paper)'. Cherry stones if swallowed can cause problems according to our French plumber as they are very hard and blunt the macerator blades. A bit noisy but not awful.

Have had one in upstairs bathroom for about 30 years. Was replaced about 13 years ago. Any problems more to do with bad installation which has now been resolved. We do have a family rule that it’s for wees only which we share with overnight guests. But small visiting GC don’t count ?

We had one in our self catering unit. Worked perfectly until I was cleaning and absentmindedly threw a cleaning wipe down, which blocked it. Very luckily the Saniflo engineer travelled the 100 mile round trip to fix it for me, local plumbers wanted to replace the whole unit.

We’ve had one for 24 years, it blocked once after we had visitors and someone put something down the loo that they shouldn’t have ( we now have a discreet sign asking ladies not to put stuff down the loo) the engineer fixed it, it cost just over a £100 back then, over 20 years ago.
We had it serviced last year and they don’t make ours any more.
So if anything goes wrong with it we can’t get any spare parts and will have to buy a new one.

My sister has one in an upstairs rather grand bedroom, it was fitted by previous owners more than 20 years ago, she's had no problems at all, slightly noisy but can't be heard downstairs.

My eldest daughter has one of these in the 'under the stairs' cloakroom she had put in about fifteen years ago. Never had the slightest problem with it.

They are more noisy than normal loos, so not really ideal for en-suites, but for downstairs cloakrooms, yes really good.

We had one fitted years ago, found it helpful and don’t recall any problem with it.
