I had an issue with the delivery of our toilet -- having nothing to do with Trelino. The customer support team was super responsive and solved it right away. The quality of the product is excellent, just what we needed. Thanks!
We think the Urinometer is definitely worth the money, and takes all the guess work out of maintaining the toilet
I wish I had two of these newly redesigned bottles instead of the 2 old bottles that don't empty easily or completely. This redesigned bottle is superior.
Used it in our home for a week to try it out before putting it in our van. Great design
We liked how our Trelino toilet made it easy to convert from a smelly cassette toilet on our camper van. The toilet is compact and sleek looking, it’s easy to use and to empty. In fact, we liked it so much we bought a second Trelino for our sailboat.
The Trelino toilet is way better than the cassette toilet we had been using. No smell, and much easier to maintain. I wish I had bought this sooner.
Pros - Very lightweight and compact, easy to toss in and out of the car for trips. Works. Looks a lot nicer, and a more refined system, than a bucket.
Cons - mostly fyi
- Some parts, like the lid, are so lightweight, it feels like it needs to be handled carefully and/or parts like the hinges may not be durable, but too early to say.
- Be aware the instructions say you cannot use this version (with the lid down) as a seat (and therefore it is presumed you cannot stack loads on top either; as above the lid material feels fragile, but is very light).
- Not that one should be spending much time sitting on this, and again, this is expected tradeoff of lightweight option, but be aware the seat is not exactly comfortable. This is the right version for my needs (e.g. car camping, road trips away from facilities), but if I was buying with the intention of more frequent use and had the space (like a van), I'd go for a different version
- Costly, but "worth it" as long as materials are durable.
Overall construction is of thin plastic. Lightweight but already has a small crack between the seat and main compartment. The separation between poop and urine containers works well for men but is difficult for women to sit on the toilet in a way that easily funnels poop toward the poop side without getting it in the urine side. This has happened to multiple females of all different proportions. The urine container is very difficult to clean. The hole is small and does not allow much ability to clean the container other than a little spray of water and cleaning solution. Overall it works but I’m still looking for a better designed option.
Also I never received the extra set of poop bags that I ordered along with the toilet. They shipped separately. The second package was not delivered and was redirected back to your warehouse. I was never given notification or refund. Overall a low experience.
Hello Ben,
We apologize for your initial experience. If there is a crack, then we would be happy to replace that piece for you! If you would like to send us photos, then we can pass them to our quality control and see which pieces we should send you.
For the separation component, we have just created a new privacy flap that would help with funnelling urine down into the canister while keeping it out of the solids container. We will have it available in the US in July.
We would be happy to send your bags out as well, alternatively, we can issue a refund for them.
Thank you for letting us know about your experience.
Best,
Katie from your Trelino® team
I haven't put it together yet! I'll let you know how it goes.

Love everything about thes toilets.
Sturdy, well made and no superfluous.
Recommended them to my friends 😊
This toilet just sucks in general. I’ve had it for about 2.5 years. This box smells no matter what video you watch our forum you read and try to fix. Lid breaks easily. The membrane always falls in the jug which requires you to either fish it out or dump it with everything and buy a new one. Regret spending $400+ on a plastic bucket.
Hi Zachary,
We apologize that you had these experiences. We would be happy to replace your lid for you and also offer advice for any smell issues you have been having with the rest of the toilet. You can contact us at hello@mytrelino.com to have these issues communicated and to be assisted.
Best,
Katie from Trelino
This composting toilet is perfect for my overnight camping in ID Buzz. The small footprint fits inside the van for #1 in the middle of the night. It doesn’t smell and the urine container holds about four uses. Easy to dispose in toilet after camping.
The trelino composting toilet expands my choices of places to go with my camper. It works great.
Works as promised....game changer for me...opens up so many possibilities with ease and comfort.
We love our new Trelino! It's a game changer for making the spouse happy!
I very satisfied with the fast delivery of my purchase. I will buy genuine products not Amazon to ensure the correct fit and convenience.
With two potty training toddlers having to stop at grungy truck stops and other shady places was killing our road trips. The trelino has saved the summer by making it easy to take with us on all of our trips. It fits perfectly into our truck camper setup too!
It works exactly as described. No stink! Light weight. I couldn’t be happier with this toilet.
