Composting toilet for family of 4?

We're exploring our options for toilets and google search did not turn up any results for composting toilets stories/reviews being used by more than 2 people. Does anyone on here use on with a family of 4? If so, how was the experience, does it break down fast enough to not stink?

No experience with more than two adults and two young children.

But the rate of composting has no impact on odor. There is no odor because of the separation of urine.

The issue I see you could run into is with 4 people using the urine diverter, it could fill up in less than half a day! My suggestion would be to go with the Seperette composing toilet and divert the urine into your grey tank.

Thanks for the reply all. I’m not worried about it actually composting because human waste takes a long long time for it to be consider “safe” to be used as compost. Mainly want a solution to reduce smells and increase our time without needing to empty anything. I was thinking of plumbing the urine into a black tank.
