    We have been looking for a good counter top compost bucket. This one is heavy and looked difficult to keep clean. Attractive from the outside but it would get broken easily in my house.

  2. I haven’t used this product yet, because I have been processing lima beans, tomatoes, peaches needing a gallon bucket. I plan to use this smaller container when the August harvest is over, and I’m not making so much compost at a time. The charcoal filter will keep the garbage smells from making my kitchen smell rotten.

    First, I should admit that I bought this from an actual brick and mortar store, not from amazon. But my complaint is about the packaging from the manufacturer, so I assume it would apply regardless.

    While the outer box is cardboard, inside the box, the compost container is packed in styrofoam. Oh, the irony. There is no reason that either cardboard, or corn-starch based foam peanuts, could not have been used.

    As far as the container itself goes, we bought it to replace a somewhat ugly (and hard to keep clean) tiny plastic wastebasket that we had previously been using (which came directly from the store with no packaging whatsoever). This is clearly much more attractive, although a bit smaller in all dimensions. I would like it to be slightly larger.

    Too early yet to tell about its durability, which others have complained about. But my first impressions are that it seems fine to me.

  4. It’s a little bit smaller than what I thought and it would have been great if it came in colors other than white. A bit costly for what it is but it’s cute.

  5. I have red appliances, so this fits in great, especially with my kitchen aid mixer. The only think that worries me is that since it is ceramic, I feel like it won’t take long before I chip it, exposing a chunk of white under that beautiful red.
