They are nice for pumping waster uphill if needed, however, they do get clogged around the impeller blades and do require maintenance. Hopefully if you have a macerator it has an installed gray water bypass so you can keep your gray water valve opened while connected at a campground.

Mine has that pump, I wasn't thinking of that as the typical Macerator you hear talked about
