Macerator Pro&Con
Are they worth having? Do they empty faster? Thanks

The real answer to this question is so user specific, that there is no single answer. The dump pipe of our coach is so low that often the dump is higher. When this is the case, you have no choice.
If I do a straight gravity dump (I can do this in my driveway), I can be dumped and cleared away in one minute. (Literally, 60 seconds) If I am doing to do the rinse and clean for storage, that takes somewhat longer, but a macerator won't help that.
If the macerator is an installed type, be ready to deal with it when it fails. Macerators are slower. If it is not an installed type, you have to clean it up to store it.
It is all a question of compromises.
