The story of the Loveable Loo®:
Who would'a thunk it? A toilet that people love?
When Jenkins wrote the Humanure Handbook and thereby introduced the world to the "humanure toilet," he didn't expect people to write to him saying they love their little home-made compost toilets, but many did. Lots of proud humanure composters sent photos of their lovable toilets, some of which are posted on the web. They built their own toilets from instructions also posted on the web.
In time, people started asking Jenkins to provide them with these little toilets, already constructed. They wanted them for their homes, camps, cabins, cottages, and to keep in a basement corner for emergency use should the power go out.

What You Get With Your Loveable Loo®:
1. The toilet itself: hemlock base (linseed oil finish), glued and screwed together, hinged 3/4" plywood top with semi-gloss polyurethane finish, with an oak toilet seat. The toilet can be additionally painted or varnished, if desired, but can also be used as is.
2. Four green 5 gallon receptacles, with lids (shipped separately).
NOTE: We will sell you a Loveable Loo® kit without the receptacles if you have your own 15" high, 11 7/8" diameter receptacles. You save $20 plus the shipping costs of the 4 receptacles, and the kit is another $30.00 off. YOUR RECEPTACLES MUST BE THIS SIZE OR THEY WILL NOT FIT THE TOILET. We are providing this option as some orders are shipped long distances and shipping costs for two large boxes can be prohibitive. Select this option below if you want to provide your own receptacles. Want to buy additional receptacles?
3. An instruction manual (can be read online).
4. A laminated "This is a Humanure Toilet" sign for posting by your toilet can be viewed online.
5. A copy of the Humanure handbook, 3rd edition, a $25 value (signed by the author, no less) can also be read online.
6. A Reotemp 20" probe, backyard compost thermometer, all welded stainless steel. Every serious composter should have one of these. This tool will allow you to monitor the temperature of your compost pile.
We ship the Loveable Loo® in a wooden crate thanks to UPS, which managed to destroy several of them in transit when we were shipping in padded cardboard boxes. This has raised the price a little, but you will get a crate with your Loo which can be used as a handy recycling bin!

Customer Testimonials:
"I just wanted to say that my wife and I are very happy with your product. We have been working to be off grid including off sewer. We started with a very expensive complicated and large composting toilet from (...being nice...). It had a solar panel and fan and we had problems with toilet flies, smell and getting the waste out to the outside composting area. It was a disaster of the worst sort. The simple small Lovable Loo® has make our lives sooo much better."
"Bought two loveable loos a few months ago and they are both in operation, one indoors one in an outhouse, and they both work great. Thank you for the free ''Balance Point'' book, that came with the loos. I read it and liked it very much. Keep up the great work."
