Stainless Steel Compost Bin Can with Double Filtered Lid, 1.3 Gallon

I searched and searched for the right compost bin to complement my kitchen since it was going to sit on my counter. This one looks so great and goes nicely with my stainless steel appliances. It's also the perfect size since we compost everything we can but didn't want to have to empty it every day. I also like the fact that it is easy to clean and came with a good filter too. We don't smell anything which is the biggest plus. I highly recommend it.

Classy, stylish, and functional! It looks great on the counter. I love that it has a mesh odor collector thing in the lid so I NEVER EVER smell the food. My complaint, which isn't really one is the stainless gets smudgy and dirty and it needs to be washed outside and definitely inside occasionally. Supposedly you can buy compostable bags, but that's another step and more to decompose that I'd rather not deal with.

This has been a welcome addition to our kitchen. We began composting this year for our garden and have been very pleased with this Compost Bin. The filters work great to prevent foul odors from leaking out and the stainless steel blends into our kitchen and is easy to clean.The one star deduction is due to the way the handle is screwed in. We have somehow managed to lose one of the screwed into the compost which makes me think a type of spot weld would have been better suited.

It sure is more deluxe than the St. Vinny's plastic ice buckets I've been using for the past few years (at a fraction of the cost). I'm hoping the stainless steel will be easier to clean and won't degrade over time, plus the handle is heavy duty and hopefully won't break any time soon. I like its large capacity and heavy lid which is easily lifted off. This item arrived in super fast time and is as described. Thank you!

Just the perfect compost bin for the counter-top!!! I love the size - not too big, not too small. It looks nice with other stainless steel small appliances, such as coffeemaker, toaster oven, blender, etc.I use a lot of fresh produce in food preparation and all that I discard goes to the bin. At end of the day when I walk the dog I take the bin to the outdoor compost and voila- I have a clean bin without any odor or anything sticking to the walls.I could not find any better for my purposes!!!

Product looked great, but the manufacturing and quality control was terrible. The bottom seam of the can had two (2) holes where the bottom and the side were supposed to be seamlessly welded together, rendering this compost can useless for the intended purpose - it would leak all over the counter if I were to use this one. I tried to do a return and replacement, using "defective or damaged" from Amazon, but that doesn't allow you to get a replacement ordered, etc. In any event, the product, if properly made, looks and feels substantial and would have been a great countertop/under counter compost can. I will be ordering another of the same item and hoping that the next one doesn't have any holes or other issues.

Too hard to open

Size and material is great. Charcoal filter is very hard to clean and extremely hard to put back in place yet can can't be used without filters. If replacements are sold you will need new ones every couple of months.
