There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
It is super easy to rinse out after taking out the compost. I don’t use any bags, and I’ve just had to quickly rinse this before using it again. There are no crevices or areas that would be hard to clean if something got crusted on.
So far, it has contained the smell of the scraps just fine - though we empty it into the backyard at least once a week. As an added bonus, it looks sleek and doesn’t have the word “compost” on it like so many other products out there. We aren’t going to forget what it’s for, and it’s sleek and fits right in to our kitchen decor.

We aren’t going to forget what it’s for, and it’s sleek and fits right in to our kitchen decor.
However, based a couple of reviews that I'm reading now, I'm guessing that the main reason I'm pleased with this bin (apart from the fact that it performs its intended function perfectly well) is that I actually understand what a compost bin is and what composting involves. Here are some pointers, in case you are new to this:
1. A compost bin is basically just a pot with a lid on it. If you are going to order this thing and then find yourself shocked when you receive what is basically just a pot with a lid on it in the mail (despite the numerous images on this page that clearly show what is basically a pot with a lid on it), then please just go buy a pot and save yourself the trouble of posting a really stupid review on Amazon that blames the product for the fact that you didn't realize what a compost bin was.
2. Composting involves taking your food scraps that would *otherwise be trash* and keeping them in a bucket (or a pot with a lid on it) in your kitchen. For this reason, it will *get dirty*, just like the rest of the items in your kitchen that come in contact with food. You will often have to *wipe it down* to remove the residue of whatever you put in it, *just like everything else in your kitchen*. Don't let the term "compost bin" fool you into thinking that this product has the magical ability to self-clean. Remember that this is basically just a pot with a lid on it.
3. Here's the thing about food scraps: they break down over time. They even break down a bit over the course of a few days. Another word for this breakdown process is "rotting". THIS IS WHY WE COMPOST THEM. If you leave your compost sitting on your counter for a week at a time, *it will start to smell*. DO NOT BLAME THE BIN - get off your lazy rump and go empty the dang thing. Would you keep your trash for a week if it was full of rotting food? NO. Honestly, a bin that will hold a week's worth of scraps isn't a good thing. A compost bin is not a panacea for all compost-related unpleasantness. If you don't want your food scraps smelling on your countertop, but you also refuse to walk allllll the way to your compost bin more than once a week, then maybe composting isn't for you. Which is fine, just don't leave a three star review on Amazon once you figure that out.

Okay, done snarking. Here's what I like about this bin:
*It looks good on the countertop
*It has a carrying handle, unlike your average pot with a lid on it
*It is well-proportioned - tall enough to hold a good amount of stuff without having a huge footprint on the countertop, but not so tall that it tips over
*I've had little to no problem with fruit flies, presumably because I have been careful to only remove the lid when I am putting stuff in the bin
*It cleans easily
*It is durable and unbreakable
Basically, it does everything a compost bin should do, assuming you do not have ridiculous, uninformed, and mutually-incompatible expectations for how it will function.
POSITIVE:
1) Look great on the counter
2) Easy to clean.
a. Put it in the dishwasher (after removing the filters)
b. Hose it out after you dump you compose. Throw the water on the compose heap to contribute those last little bits
3) NO SMELL!!! Those filter work great!!
4) Sturdy build. I have lugged my full (and surprisingly heavy) pail to my car, drove to the compost pile, hauled pail to the compost pile, and swinging/shaking/pounding to release everything with NO problems or dents. Now I would not recommend using the pail for soccer or baseball practice, but it can take a licking and keep on ticking.
NEGATIVE:
1) Not large enough for people who eat more than 3 pieces of produce per day.
2) Awkward filter. The filter is difficult to pull out. I tied to pinch the filter as recommended, but it didn't work. I use the large end of a chopstick to push out the filter from the top of the lid and that seems to work well. If you get the filter wet (either water or touching compose) they will start to mold quickly.
If you have a compose heap near by or in your backyard, the size of this pail will not be a issue. If you have to drive a while, I would look for something bigger so you won't have to empty the pail as often.
