Dometic 310 replacement recommendations

I'm done battling the bowl to pedestal seal design flaw of our Dometic 310 series toilet.

Quieting an RV air conditioner

Does anyone have experience with the RV air conditioner quieting device marketed by Wacko products?

It's $189 on their website. Details seem sparse as to how it functions.
