The toilets are beautiful (depends upon which one you buy of course).
We have the simpler white enameled stainless one in the front cabin and
the full meal deal porcelain will go in the aft head.
The work the same as the toilets in a train, using a small jolt of
compressed air to send the effluent on its way. Therefore, there is no
need to hold a vacuum seal or pressure seal at the toilet bowl. Also,
there is no need for a Vacuflush vacuum pump which is occasionally
problematic.
The downside is you need a small compressor. I wanted compressed air
for the boat anyway so we bought their 12 volt mini-compressor which
fits nicely in our engine-room and provides air for our air horns and
for other uses.
We have not actually used our head yet (still plumbing) but I have seen
them work in the tugboats and I like the little swoosh concept <G>. No
more unclogging macerators or pumps!

I'm not sure, so please do check. You might email Microphor and ask
them.
Do you like the toilets? Looks like an interesting alternative to
VacuFlush.
