Compost Bin & Filter

Bought to go with a stainless steel composting pail we use for the Council food waste collection as we've started composting so need a separate bin for uncooked vegetable waste. Very impressed with the quality and price (cheaper than our existing pail, bought from a department store). Matt black paint finish inside and out is much more practical than shiny stainless steel. .For the record, we've never replaced our old pail's filter - the filter washes well and there really is no smell (unless, perhaps, you left fish in it for a week in a heatwave!). We always use a caddy liner in the old one (for the Council food waste) with a little bit of kitchen roll in the bottom for any moisture. Simply wipe the inside and out with anti-bac and wash every couple of months. Simply line the new pail with newspaper - it doesn't get 'sweaty' as it fills up quickly with veg trimmings so we empty it every other day or so.WAY better looking than anything the Council will give you (and less smelly). Keep on the floor - next to the reusable carrier for paper, glass, plastic and metal recycling!

It's early days, but so far I love this. I don't know why the listing shows a square filter as well but the bin came with the round filter fitted and no square one so maybe this is used under the round one - time will tell; and if there isn't one I'm not going to worry about it.It's 4.5 Litre and standard bags are 6 litre so they overlap the sides, but that's a minor point and the bin does the job well. It's very well made, looks great and matches our black granite worktops so - yes I'm very happy.

This is a great compost bin. It isn't the cheapest but I bought a cheaper one before and it fell apart.My only small criticism of the bin so far is that the handle, in my opinion is slightly too thin for the design - in my mind it could do with looking chunkier!However it does the job, it looks good enough to leave on the work top if you want to, it doesn't smell and it holds a fair amount so I don't have to walk to the compost bin outside every day.I'd recommend it to others.

The original one I ordered had got lost in the post so it didn't arrive by the date it should have. Once I contacted them, they sent me another one express delivery and I received it in 2 days. The compost caddy is good quality and I put recycling food waste bags inside it, but there is no odour at all. It is just about the right size and fits nicely in a corner of my Kitchen and it looks good as well. I would recommend this product. It looks so much nicer that the green plastic container left by the local council. I would use this supplier again.

I have a new kitchen and I wanted to have something to replace the plastic green bin which really didn't look very good on my new charcoal grey Quartz work top. This bin looks very smart indeed, and is very functional. It has a charcoal filter in the lid which so far does the job very nicely of keeping bad smells at bay! It looks just the same as the picture.

This is the best little compost bin I've had (and I've tried and discarded several!) It is a good size, the lid is snug but not too tight, and you can get it on and off with one hand. It looks good and seems to be pretty substantial.

Good caddy which is let down by the handle. Considering the body and lid are metal, the handle on the top is plastic; cheap plastic at that. After a month or so of use, the plastic became brittle and just broke apart (see photo). I glued back together; it then broke in a different place. I've now replaced with a metal handle; brushed steel from Homebase. Looks the business and will now last. Why the manufacturer did not use a metal one is beyond me!

It's good quality build, large enough to hold a few days' worth of rubbish, but due to the design it can sit on your work surface next to the coffee tin and blend in. Importantly, the combination of the build and the filters means, that if you forget to take the bin out, you won't stink up the place. You can have a full on mold invasion happening inside the bin and you'd be none the wiser, until you're emptying it! When you do, it's very easy to wash with dish soap and filters can be simply pulled out to replace. Overall very happy with this little bin.
