Comments about Copper Finish Compost Pail:
Though beautiful with great capacity, it really isn't durable enough for composting. The bottom has several holes and the pail leaks all over the counter. For those who really compost regularly, this isn't for you.

I purchased this to add decor to my kitchen. I do compost all my kitchen scraps, but this copper pail was the perfect accent, since I have copper accents in my kitchen.
Beautiful and functional!

Comments about Copper Finish Compost Pail:
I have used this product for about 3 weeks. It is just the right size for our 4 person family. We empty the container every 4-5 days. We have had no problems with odors. It is attractive sitting on the counter next to the sink.

Comments about Copper Finish Compost Pail:
Matches our kitchen perfectly. Very fine quality. Lid hides the ugliness of what is contained in the compost bucket before taking outside to the large compost heap. Holds a convenient amount.

Comments about Copper Finish Compost Pail:
I bought the copper composting pail as a wonderful and decorative addition to our kitchen. Our pail now has three holes in the bottom and does not work as effectively. I was disappointed in this fact and now have to buy another pail to do the work of this one.
I strongly suggest getting these decorative pails for use in your kitchen, but go for the crock or a stainless one that will last longer.

Comments about Copper Finish Compost Pail:
I bought this as a gift to my son and daughter in law as he started a compost pile a year and 1/2 ago and they were keeping their kitchen scraps in a plastic cottage cheese container until taken to the compost. So, I thought they could really use this and since she likes pretty things in her kitchen but is very particular and has classy good taste she would like this. They both seemed to like it really well and my son says it is very functional and easy to use. Even though the lid does not lock in place it fits very tight and well and no odor noted at all he says. I thought it was very beautiful for her and functional for him as it won't break on trips he takes to the compost like a ceramic one would. It would also make a nice ice bucket for wine or a holder for kindling at a fireplace and look good.
