I want to change head for something reliable,manual,not terribly
expensive.I'm thinking of Raritan's Cricket,but do not have any opinion or
experience.Is it possible to get your feedback on this important topic.

The Cricket is good toilet...but is a "light duty" toilet. For long term
reliability and durability, and especially for serious cruising, the PH
II is a better choice...it's been rated the best manual toilet under
$500 for several decades. If the PH II won't fit in the space, Raritan
now offers the PHC, which is the same pump but on the same base as their
Compact II and costs a little less.

We've gone through this before in this newsgroup - the PH-II is a
poorly designed plastic toilet - that squirts liquid sewage out
through the "water lubricated" top seal - into your face when you bend
over to flush it. Do a google newsgroup search in the archives of the
RBC newsgroup for the problems with the crappy PH-II toilets. Peggy
forgets to say she sold her co. to Raritan and then worked for them -
so her recommendations have a taint or bias to them - but why's she's
biased to the crappy PH-II is beyond us.

Yep...and you never use the same identity twice.

Almost all written by you! :)

If I am biased, so is the entire industry...because the PH II and its
predecessor the PHH have consistently been rated the best manual toilet
under $500 for more than two decades.

But let's talk your own bias... I have nearly 20 years of experience
with literally thousands of owners of just about every toilet ever made,
including a few you've prob'ly never even heard of. How much experience
do you have that would make your bias more valid than any I might have?

That's a lot of poops! Haha. We're glad you're here, Peggie. I figure the
guy had one lousy seal and got a bum squirt (pardon the pun) ...certain to
cause a bad attitude if it hits you in the face (yuk yuk.) We can tell who
to ignore...

I've got two of them that I installed 18 months ago and they've done nothing
but perform perfectly. Sounds to me more like sour grapes of some variety.

We got one a few years back and like it, but it is a bit different than
the Compact it replaced and the Pars we've used on other boats. If we
had a lot of guests, I think I'd prefer the PH or Compact, but for the
two of us, the Cricket has definite advantages. Check the cost of a
rebuild kit.
