Customer Reviews

Perfect for our small kitchen composting needs
I recently became very fed up with the amount of stuff we were throwing out. Along with getting a 2nd container to keep our #3-6 recyclables (which we can't put in our city recycling bin), I picked up this compost bucket to keep under our kitchen sink. While the plastic recycling has been a disaster (the state of recycling in San Diego is very poor...), this little marvel has really been awesome.

With just my wife and myself, the bucket filled up in a little over a week. We live in an apartment without a compost bin so we have to take it to Whole Foods for the actual composting process to take place. As a result, we don't clean it out until it fills up. Luckily, the lid with the carbon filter kept all the smells in. It was a bit of a mess to clean up after emptying but we picked up some BioBags and they really make the bucket even handier.

I would definitely recommend this for your small kitchen composting needs.

Great compost pail!
Excellent product and was delivered promptly. The size allows me to reduce the number of trips I have to make to our compost pile. I sometimes don't empty the container for 3 days and it has never emitted an odor. In addition, it's light weight, making it easy to carry even when filled to the brim. Once emptied, I give it a quick rinse and it's ready to go. The only thing I would have preferred is a choice of colors, but that's not a major issue since everything else about the product is great!

Compost Bucket
I've looked high and low for a compost bucket that's not flashy - don't like shiny chrome ones - and not heavy like the crockery ones. This one seems to be the best one out there. I purchased it to replace the older model of the same design. We'd had the old one for about seven years, and after the puppy had chewed it and the charcoal filter thing kept falling out, I decided to buy a new one once the handle finally fell off. We actually use it for scraps for our chickens, not for compost, so the kids would often take it outside to the chicken pen. Suffice to say it had a hard life, and stuck in there well. My only request would be for more color options. The green is okay, and certainly more appealing than the old white one we had, but a choice of colors would be fantastic.
The compost bucket arrived from the seller within a week.
