Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
We like this composte pail. It sits under the sink without difficulty, and the carbon filter really keep the odors away. The pail did two things, (1) helps us compost and (2) get rid of stuff we didn't really need under the sink. I purchased one for my daughter and son-in-law. When I wanted to buy one for me, I didn't see it in your catalog. I bought your red crock for compost. It works well also.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Great concept, but the container isn't air tight and not only attracts bugs, it smells.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Fits right in the sink for me, easy to take outside.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
This is a great product, good sized for a busy kitchen, fits under the counter. I think if you compost alot you'd be better off with a ceramic one, the plastic gets a little moldy, but if that doesn't bother you then this is perfect.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Perfect for countertop, I love it when preparing produce and cleaning off leftovers from plates before the dishwasher.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
This is a good size, fits under my sink and is easy to carry out to my compost bin. I dont prefer the bio bag in it just because my coffee grounds seem to start it breaking down while in the bag. Otherwise it cleans up well and is great to use. I am very happy with it.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Perfect size for convenient and frequent kitchen scraps. Biological trash bags fir in well and it doesn't get too heavy to dispose of easily.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Much neater than having a can on the counter.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Great all round compost pail~lots of room and fits nicely under the sink
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
This pail is great for storing kitchen scraps. We would throw scraps in the garden but found it attracted unwanted animals. This alternative is much better and doesn't smell until emptied.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I like the compost pail. It is easy to use, large in size and sits neatly under my sink. The only objection I have is the lid does not fix as tight as needed to keep the fruit flies out.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Works as advertized
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
It is large enough I'm not empting it every day. No Odors detected. While not attractive it is functional. Less trips to the compost tumbler.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
The size is perfect for the kitchen. It forces me to visit the compost pile. Even though it is plastic, it works as described and holds up. Easy to clean out and stores neatly under the sink. Change the carbon filters once in awhile and you are good to go.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I was originally going to mount this to a cabinet door (as shown in the listing), but after a week of it sitting on the counter waiting for me to do so, I decided to just leave it there. It's pretty, and even with banana peels and all sorts of kitchen scraps in it, it's never smelled! The handle makes it easy to take down to the compost heap and dump.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Blends into counter background making it disappear but easy to use on a constant basis.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Great Compost pail. Mounts on kitchen cabinet. Great product. We have been using this pail for 14 years. Lasts well... and we us ALL the time.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
We have a home office & we had one for years in the office to collect coffee grinds. So I decided to get one for the kitchen so I don't have to keep bringing kitchen scraps to the office. I keep them in the cupboard under the sink & there is no odor to deal with. Great price!
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Works perfectly for under counter bio kitchen waste. Love that I do not have to have something cluttering up the counter.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I've been putting all my kitchen veggie waste in this for a few weeks now. Only have do take it to the composter once a week, maybe twice when we're eating lots of watermelon, and I haven't had any odor problems. The bio bags are a great addition to this, making it easier on the cleanup. Overall, simple, great product.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
This compost pail holds a tremendous amount of kitchen scraps; however, you need to immediately take the scraps out to your compost pile. If you bring home any fruit flies with your fresh fruit, the flies can easily enter the compost pail around the carbon filter. Once that happens, it's party time for the fruit flies.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
We use the compost pail for all food wastes. The size is perfect for my cupboard under the kitchen sink, which makes it very convenient even for the kids!
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
The charcoal filters (ordered separately) are a must and make this product outstanding. Big capacity - no odor. I'm recommending to my friends whom like to "mulch" this is a must have.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Poor lid design has too many gaps and allows the fruit flies to access the scraps and flourish. Very disappointing.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Had one of these for years and the plastic finally cracked. We were so happy to find another one at Gardeners Supply to replace the old one. It is a great size, holds lots of scraps, easy to clean and the filter helps keeps the smells down. We use it in the kitchen as well as take it on the porch when making salsa or other things. Being plastic it's nice and light and don't have to worry about it breaking.

Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I bought this to store my stinky dog poop bags in between garbage collection days. It works great and it's plastic so I just leave it outside next to my big garbage can and just drop the bags in when we get back from our walks. It was a good price and it works for me.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Clean it after emptying each time and there will be no odor or bugs. A plain looking bucket, but if it's under the cupboard, who cares!
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Perfect size for the kitchen. Sturdy enough to be bumped around. Easy to clean. Really is odorless. Would recommend to anyone who composts!
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
It fits great under the sink and holds plenty of kitchen waste (about a weeks worth for us). It has been odor free and has helped reduce the amount of garbage we produce. There is no need to buy a more expensive one.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Very effective. Much better than my previous bin that bred fruit flies.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Due to the poorly fitting lid, it attracts swarms of fruit flies.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
very attractive and small enough to set on countertop.

Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
The only one I've found that's designed to go under the sink, and doesn't smell.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I ordered this pail because I was tired of using a Tupperware container and wanted something with an easy to use lid. The first thing I noticed was that there is no seal around the lid closure, and that the "snap-lock" was less sturdy than the plastic tabs we child-proof our cabinets with. Within minutes of having a banana peel and cucumber ends put in, we had tons of fruit flies, and sure enough, they were crawling in and out of the gaps around the lid. Some were even crawling INTO the filter. I am returning this product today, and the worst part is my husband's "I told you so".
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I love this pail- The design is simple yet attractive. Excellent all around.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Works well. Smell fine when closed but after I washed it with soap and water, the bad smell stayed on the plastic.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I use this daily and one unexpected benefit is that I seldom use electric disposal. I have wanted this product for a long time but until not had not found one that was affordable and hidden.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Like the size and weight - fits easily under sink and fine to carry out to composter. However, the filter falls off very easily because the top is too flimsy. Constantly pulling filter out of stinky scraps - yuck.
[1 of 1 customers found this review helpful]
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Easily hung this pail on the back of my sink cabinet door; very easy to hang it and lightweight, even when full. There's two indentations on the back to put the screws in; easy to lift the bucket off them and out of the cabinet for emptying and cleaning. No smell or fruit flies yet; been using it for about a month & empty it just about weekly (2 person home).
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
This is a great way to keep compost items out of sight. The container was too big to attach to the door under our sink (because of the pipes), but still fit inside the cabinet sitting on the floor.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I wanted to begin composting but didn't want a large container sitting on the counter. This is exactly what I wanted - I mounted it just below the sink so its convenient yet does the job. My sister saw it now she's thinking of getting one too.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
It is out of the way and so easy to use.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
The product is easy to use and ororless.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I was looking for a compost bucket that would keep the odor to a minimum. This bucket really does keep the odor in.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I like the size, fits perfect under the sink.

Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Use for kitchen food scraps to compost to large outside compost pile. Small kitchen, so inside cabinet perfect. Was reusing salad container to compost so this is much better for odor & cleanliness. Only small problem is the filter insert is square for this composter,but most replacement filters are round & will need to be cut.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I always wanted to have a compost pile; so this is a great start.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
The handle makes it very easy to carry outside, no more complaints from family members. Fits nicely under our sink and is very easy to wash out.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Love the convenience of just opening the cabinet door and dropping in compostibles!
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
The one problem ive found is the container does not shut tight like a food container. The carbon filter works only too a point and it doesn't keep little bugs from entering. I really wish it would seal tight in the event it tiped over. Which has happened to me. What a mess!! If i could find a product like this i would buy.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Simplicity yet aesthetically functional especially with the carbon filter to minimize the odor factor.I use biodegradable plastic bags which makes the transfer to the large composter a small effort and the pail requires a minimal clean up.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Still waiting for husband to install under sink-so it's sitting on the counter- it's not pretty but very functional.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I like it except I wish the lid came completely off, it's a pain when dumping into the compost heap because the lid often slaps downward, swinging into the stream of scraps you are tossing and getting all messy. Two little plastic parts that I think are meant to hold the handle in place popped off, but so far the handle has not fallen out. So I think it will be ok. Maybe I'll try it with the bags...
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I have been wanting to get into composting and being "greener" in general. This is perfect for the kitchen.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I am very impressed that there is truly no odor from this collector. I've put moldy oranges it it--a very pervasive odor--and once it's closed, it's gone.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Great for the kitchen.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I was using a coffee can...so this product suits my needs very well. Clean, easy to handle, easy to use.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Works great fits under counter
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
We are now fully in the habit of putting all kitchen scraps in the
kitchen pail that we ordered from your company. We had one before that
did not work very well at all, so are pleased to have this one.
We've been kitchen composting for about 3 years now, and our wormies
are very happy! We get great worm-compost for our potted plants.
Hoping everyone will get in this easy habit!
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Perfect solution for kitchen generated composting materials and for transport to composting site
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I like the fact that this product controls odors and holds a good amount before you have to empty it.
[0 of 1 customers found this review helpful]
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I use this under the sink with the biodegradable bags that I can just remove and take out to my composter. With the filters I never know it's under the sink. Better yet, neither do my guests!
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Easy open lid allows for quick repeated use under counter. Adequate size. Comfortable handle for carrying to garden composter. Rinsing between uses (pour water into compost pile) increases filter life.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
We wore out our original version of this compost pail. It can hold a week's worth of coffee grinds and kitchen scraps without smelling up the kitchen and rinse out in a snap! The only drawback to it is IF you DON"T snap the lid shut, you can grow a bumper crop of fruit flies, otherwise it lives up to keeping the kitchen free from pests and smells. It not a designer bucket, no bells and whistles, just a simple easy product!
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Keeps the smell in the bucket! makes my trips to the compost down to a couple times a week!
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I love the size of this compost pail. It takes us a couple of days to fill it whereas our old bin would have to go out several times a day. We haven't had any trouble with odors (the carbon filers are doing their job!). I also like that it's easy to open one-handed. We didn't use the mounting feature, so I'm not sure how well that works. I'd rate this a 5, but I don't know about long-term durability which is very important to me. It looks like it will hold up (unlike our last bin), but only time and use will tell.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I like the large capacity of this compost pail and the carbon filters work as I had hoped. My husband was always unhappy about seeing (and smelling) kitchen scraps in a makeshift container (such as a spring mix clamshell) in the kitchen. I didn't want a compost pail taking up counter space. So this under the sink pail with a carbon filter was the perfect answer. I'm glad that the lid snaps shut to prevent spills and to enable the filter to work well. The only thing I am unhappy about is that the item looked white in the catalog photo but the the color is a yellowish white. (I thought about sending it back because that's how much I dislike the color.) But I decided to keep it, figuring that for the most part it is out of sight and after a while I will probably not notice the color. I haven't hung it inside a cabinet door yet because we are about to remodel our kitchen, so we'll see how well that feature works!
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
My wise landlady is a master gardener. She seemed surprised with a gardening neophyte like me wanting to do kitchen composting. I would've just grabbed something locally or even a used paint bucket (I admit it), but she recommended your product and it is wonderful. No mess, no odor, and totes outside to the large recycling bins (curbside here in Northern California) without a whimper. Perhaps this Spring I'll move onto my next lesson, but this product is a winner.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I think it is great that it fits under the sink, yet only needs to be emptied, at most, once a week.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
This product is a great no-frills product. It has great capacity and is easy to fill and empty. It is really easy to install on the cabinet door which makes it easy to access and keeps it off of the counter.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
This is a great compost pail. I've had mine for over a year and bought another for my father-in-law. Though I've never changed the carbon filter, I've never had a problem with odors escaping (I do empty it pretty regularly, and give it a quick soapy scrub after emptying it). The lid fits tightly and hasn't warped - shocking, considering we've stuffed it pretty full.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Use for Kitchen scraps and waste collection. The larger capacity, low odor allows for fewer trips out in the cold to the compost. Haven't used it in hot weather yet, so can't speak to the fruit flies.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
This container fits very wel under my kitchen cabinet and does not need to be emptied too often.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I have it under our kitchen sink. It's so easy to use and it's a large size, so I don't have to empty as often. I love the bio bags that fit so well. And it IS odor-free.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
We were using a plastic pretzel jar for our kitchen composting. It was difficult to clean and not attractive at all! Thankfully I was given the Odor-free Compost Pail for Christmas and I just love it!
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Very easy to compost instead of adding to garbage
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Great for under counter organic kitchen scraps & coffee gounds -- carry it right out to the compost pile.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
GREAT FOR ALL THE STUUF THAT WOULD NORMALLY SMELL IN THE TRASH!

Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
New to composting, my family was tired of the "gross" bowl of kitchen scraps sitting on the kitchen counter. The composting pail is the perfect answer. Its attractive, large enough to hold several days of kitchen scraps from my family of 4, and easy to carry to my outside compost pile. I would highly recommend it to anyone.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
We keep this in the Garage, halfway to the Composter for Kitchen scraps. When full, we empty into the compost pile. It helps us save steps and does not smell, thanks to the filter. Thanks for a great product!
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
We have been composting our kitchen scraps in a very small container requiring nightly trips to the compost bin. We are thrilled to be going only every 7-10 days! Fits great under the sink and is very easy to transport.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Easy to use, helps me continue composting year-around. Haven't got the room to hang inside a cabinet, so takes up a fair amount of counter space.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Easy to install and convieiant
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I love the fact that it's off the counter yet easily accessible. No odor, and no gnats, due to the lock feature. Great product.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
This really came in handy for me it's small enough to sit on counter, or under sink. Big enough to hold enough stuff for quite a few days. This item was really useful too me.

Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Our counter space is limited and we did not want a compose container, no matter how attractive or funtional it is, taking up needed space. Under the counter mounted on a cabinet door is ideal. It holds enough to be empted every 3 or 4 days into our garden compost bin and has no odor. PERFECT!

With the carbon filters it does an outstanding job of odor control.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Like that it is lightweight and washes easily
My original crockery pail required bags that tore easily and had cracked from years of use.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
This pail fits easily under my sink which is exactly where I need it. It is always accesible when I have kitchen scraps and coffee grounds and I easily carry it all out to the compost pile when the pail is full.

This is mounted on my under-sink cabinet door and is so convenient! I love it's capacity (big but not too big).

Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I use this in combination with biobags (compostable bags) to make transfer to the compost pile easier. I have not had a problem with odor.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
This pail has so far lived up to expectations. I really like that it can be easily mounted to a door so that it is out of sight. Even when we've had scraps in the pail for a week, there has been hardly any smell. I would consider it about 90% odor free. I would recommend this pail to anyone looking for a place to store kitchen scraps prior to composting.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Nice capacity. Large enough for most families. One draw back is that fruit flies can get in. The carbon filter keeps order down. The great feature is that it is designed to hang on a cabinet door keeping it off the counter. Overall a good product.

Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Kept under my sink for kitchen scraps. Changed the carbon filter earlier than advertised, due to odor. Not sure plastic was the right choice for container--it seems to hold odor. Using with biobags, so bag & all are tossed into composter regularly. Seem to break down fine.

Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I ordered two, not being sure how big the product was. It's plenty large enough for all the scraps we generate, and I was able to send one back! Using the biobags makes it almost mess-free!
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
The bucket is rather small, but for our 2-person family, we go to the compost pile only once a week. There is NO smell in the kitchen, but once I open the lid -- I do know what "Ive been missing!" I've been using plastic grocery bags while I'm looking for a green alternative, plus it is a real pain to empty the grocery bags once the scaps start going funny.
The bucket is somewhat on the expensive side for what it is (i.e. plastic, three parts) but I do not regret buying it a bit.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
We compost most all kitchen waste, and this needs emptying only once weekly. I combine it with biodegradable bags for a neat, odorless collection system. And, it's light weight, so carrying it all to the pile is easy, too.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
These has a nice capacity and does not smell
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Small and compact, attractive in the kitchen.
Would love to know how to install on the door, as shown in the picture...
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
This pail is excellent. I like that it can be wall/door mounted and stashed out of sight. Got our old one off our counter, which gave us more counter space and less fruit flies.
The only issue I've found so far is the clips that hold the carry handle in place come out easily and I've had to dig them out of our composter (gross) a couple of times. Might just be able to take them off, as they don't seem to be needed to keep the handle attached.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
This is the kind of device that increases the tendency to use organic kitchen waste well, rather than discard it. It changes behavior and improves the way we do things.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Little or no odor from food scraps and cuts down on fruit flies. Fits under sink.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I just ordered the kitchen composter that will use the scraps I will put in this so I will let everyone know how it does after I try it
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
We're vegetarian & produce a lot of fruit & veggie kitchen scraps that used to go in the trash. Now that we've started gardening we decided to start composting as well. All our kitchen scraps & coffee grounds now go right into the compost pail, which we keep under the sink. I was very skeptical about the 'odor-free' claim, but it really is odor-free. Once or twice a week we transfer the contents of the pail to our yard compost bin, bio-bag and all. Feels great to be doing something constructive with the scraps and reducing the amount of trash that gets hauled away.

Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I have my own compost at home. At work I noticed that all my co-workers were just throwing away a ton of "quality scraps". So I bought one of these to bring to work on monday and then bring it home on friday full of goodness. It cleans easily and the price was right. No smell as long as the lid is snapped shut.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
The small green fixtures on the handle kept falling off - otherwise the compost scrap collector is easy to use because it is light weight, easy to carry, and easy to keep clean.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
It's amazing how much kitchen scraps take up space in the garbage. I add the super hot composter starter right to the pail and when full, transfer to my big composter in the yard.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Light, easy to carry, lid snaps shut & keeps odors in. Fits easily under the sink. Just perfect!
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I love using this in my kitchen. It makes composting mush easier to start.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I've used this under-sink compost pail for several years and have been thoroughly satisfied. This most recent purchase was for a gift to someone just starting out with their own worm composting system. Worms love nothing better than when you take them yummy coffee grounds, fruit peels and veggie trimmings saved for a few days, odor free, in this pail.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Very practical in collecting kitchen composting items.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I keep this under my sink, and carry the whole thing to my garden composter once a week. I use an intact plastic grocery bag as a liner, which I throw away after I empty it. I know that biodegradable bags are available but I have not tried them yet. I then rinse it out and let it dry outside before I bring it back in the house.

Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I purchased this hoping it would work as promised, but nervous that it would not live up to expectations. Well, it works very well. Right now, I have a rotting onion, egg shells and some old fruit in the bin that I will be taking to my compost bin. With this handy pail, I can not smell a thing. I do use a bag in it because I was left with a little bit of a mess the first time I used it and needed to scrub the inside. (And, yes, I recycle the bag). There is no odor with this product. I've had scallions in there for a few days and, again, my kitchen remained odor-free. I highly recommend this product.

Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I really like that it fits under the sink out of the way even though it looks fine. We haven't attached it to cupboard door but may soon. It's not all smelly especially with the filters and the biodegradable bags make transfer to our outdoor compost barrel neat and easy.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
We have this product at a preschool, and it is easy for the children to use. We collect the scraps to feed worms, which raises the children's awareness of composting.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
This product is easy to use. I put table scraps in it(fruits,vegetables,eggs shells, tea bags). There is no smell with the carbon filters. When it is full I transfer it to my large compost bin outside. This product sits on my countertop with no problems.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I got my first one as a gift, loved it! When I rebuilt my house after a fire, it was one of my first purchases for the new kitchen. Unfortunately, they do melt. We compost in an outside tumbler, and this little gem saved me many a trip in the cold to haul out coffee grinds and kitchen scraps. I highly recommend it, no smell, easy to clean, and very unobtrusive.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
It needs a better, stronger way to be attatched to the wall/cupboard door. Otherwise it is just what I wanted
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
THE PERFECT SIZE FOR MY KITCHEN. NO ONE EVEN NOTICES IT. NO ODOR AT ALL. GREAT VALUE.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:

Used to collect organic waste for composting in a school.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
There really is NO odor or flying creatures associated with this. Even when I open it to put the contents into the composter and there is mold...still NO odor at all. Would be great if it came with mounting hardware, but I still sit it under my sink. Not a huge deal. I really wish I had bought this sooner.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
This is a little small & fills quickly, though it's lightweight & easy to use.

Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
At first glance out of the box, I was upset I paid [$] for a plastic bucket. But after months of use, it works pretty darn good. Can put several days worth of kitchen scraps before need to bring out to outside compost. Purchased one for work , which needs a thick liner, not just a plastic shopping bag. Also bought one for a neighbor who was tired of having a bag of coffee grinds hanging from their sink cabinet, and they love it.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Just what I wanted in a pail. NO ODOR!! Holds sufficient amount for few trips to the compost pile. Good size fits under my kitchen sink.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
My compost pail is really handy under my kitchen sink. It holds a lot of kitchen scraps. There has never been any odor from it. I also love the bags. They are the right size and I just tossed it right into the compost bin without any mess!
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
This product fits nicely under the sink, and makes my composting effortless. Will try the bags and order the filters next, for an ideal small-composting-setup. Since I no longer live in the woods, and must urbanize my farmering, this helps immensely.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I bought this compost pail to hide my compost from view and have a neat way to store it. I love how it attaches to my cabinet and is out of view and how it has a large capacity. In addition I purchased the biodegradable bags to put in the pail. So I just toss the whole bag into my compost pile. This is a great product and has worked out perfectly for me.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Nice and compact,works great and at a great price.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
It truly is odor free! I was surprised and pleased to find this out. I was skeptical, but it truly works. Even my husband likes it!
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
This has been a great pail. No funny odors seeping out and a great place to keep my kitchen scraps so that I'm not constantly running out to my compost tumbler.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Now we have a place to stage our compostable materials-I have less tripsd to the compost pile and at the same time, it keeps the kitchen from smelling bad.
Glad that I bought it!
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Keeps the compost items out of sight, and doesn't have to be emptied every day.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Hoped to be delighted with this, but despite the snap-on lid, the gnats called in reinforcements before it was hardly set up..also, there's an odor which the filter isn't interested in diminishing. This, just after one day, and it's not even 1/3 full..(coffee grounds, strawberry tops only)
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I began using large plastic bags kept in my fridge for my kitchen waste. I felt more and more guilty so I tried several compost buckets, not very satisfied until I used yours. A side note: I love the videos that you have on line!!! More please!!!! They are very instructive.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I use this product to take care of kitchen waste to save for a compost pile.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Serves the purpose for which it was purchased, collecting kitchen food scraps for the big composter
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I teach composting classes, it's a nice gadget for those just getting started who may be afraid of odors. I've bought it for friends who are new to composting to get them excited.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I have it mounted on the cabinet door under my veggie sink. I like that it is put away and doesn't show, yet it is easily accessible right where I need it most. I like that it has a carbon filter and a lid. Has no odor. The one thing that I found frustrating is that it did not include any mounting hardware. That would have been convenient.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I have this stored under my kitchen sink or it can be attached to the cupboard door for easy access. I just toss my tea bags and vegetable scraps into it while cleaning up the kitchen. It is made of durable plastic so it is easy to keep clean, the lid is secure to keep out gnats and flies, and the filter takes care of any odor.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
What a great surprise! This compost pail is an incredible addition to my household recycling efforts. I'm adding the kitchen scraps to my worm composting system and it is all good! Thanks, Gardner's Supply!
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
We have two in our kitchen. When one is ready to take a trip to our composter we replace it with the other one---all nice and clean. When I finish washing the used one I put a coffee filter in the bottom so it empties eaily next time and place it in the pantry until needed.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Stores scraps for a week in our household, handle makes for easy carry to compost pile.

Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
This pail is so convenient and handy to have right under the kitchen sink and off of the counter. For family use, the size is great; it is big enough so that you don't have to make a trip to the compost bin every day and small enough so that it can be out of sight. It is also very easy to clean. I haven't found the filters that useful as you have to empty the pail before it gets a chance to produce an odor. I use it with the biodegradable liners. I like it enough to have given one to a friend this past holiday season.

Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Just small enough to sit next to my waste basket - big enough to hold an ample amount of scraps.

Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
This compost pail is great for under my kitchen sink. It holds alot and saves me needless trips to my outside compost bin that I use to do daily, with this pail I only have to empty it weekly.
Also no smell at all comes from the pail---very well contained and has a filter on top.
Just love it!!

Fits under the sink, holds more than others I've tried and is fruit fly and odor free!

Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
For me, the price did not warrant the product. I was concerned that the handle would snap off in time. My plan was to mount it under my sink on the door - no hardware was included. I returned the product.

Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I had to adjust the holes in the back to make the screws sit level. Overall it's good. I don't know if it's worth [$], but catch it on sale and it's a good buy.

The handle makes it easy to carry.

STORES NICE AND EASILY UNDER THE SINK

Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Don't have a disposal, so I keep it under my sink and scrap everything in when I'm preparing meals and cleaning up. Very easy to use and dump into my compost bin every few days.
[2 of 2 customers found this review helpful]
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Generally, this product is very satisfactory. But it would be even better if the lid stayed up when the can is opened, so it's not necessary to use two hands to hold it up while you scoop up the garbage with -- what? your third hand?
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Easy to open, making it more useful than other compost pails.

Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I use this pail under my sink (where it fits comfortably.) It holds just the right amount (before odors begin to collect.) The charcoal filter works well. It is easy to clean. Mine is about 2 years old and shows no signs of wear.

Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
This is my second pail I have purchased. I keep it in my kitchen for all the scraps to take out to the compost pile. It is good looking, easy to handle, easy to clean, is odor free and keeps pesty flies and gnats out.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Holds a lot of kitchen scraps so I don't have to run out to my compost bin as often.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
small capacity

Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
We thought this was great until we started hatching flies. It was really gross when I opened the lid and a whole swarm appears. We are going to get a ceramic one next with a rubber seal to make sure no other bugs can get inside.

Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
This compost pail is great! I toss coffee grounds and kitchen scraps into the pail, and empty the pail in our bin every few days. There is absolutely no odor in the kitchen from this pail, and the pail washes out quite easily. This compost pail is also very lightweight.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
We used our first pail for years and years until the handle finally broke. It sits on our kitchen counter and when full I carry it out to our compost pile. Now we have a new one.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Makes it so easy to collect the kitchen vegetable scraps all week and take it to the composter on the weekend. I use it with a kitchen trash bag in it.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Keeps the smell in and holds a good amount. We have 3 people in our household & only have to take it out once or twice a week. Fits easily under the sink with room to open the lid.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Fits nicely under the sink, has very low to no odor, but is hard to clean.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I got two, so I can rotate them. I love that it mounts under the sink, which the previous model didn't do. The best thing, though, is that the lid is attached, I can open it with one hand or leave the lid open. The lid never touches the kitchen counter!

Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
It is just a plastic bucket with a lid that holds a charcoal filter. Next time I will recycle a plastic coffee can.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I like the capacity of the pail and the biobags make emptying it easy. Be aware it doesn't seal, so the fruit flies in it were horrendous! However, odors were definitely under control with the filter. I also can't find square replacement filters in the catalog, only round.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Use this for kitchen scraps, fruit, bread, vegetables, etc. at our cottage. The size is good and the filter has kept it odor free. Have used it about a month, and so far the filter is still working very well.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Something for Mom that she uses everyday.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Overall it is a decent product. I do not like that it still gets fruit flies. And purchasing the compostable bags added to the cost. Without them though, the thing would be disgusting.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I can keep this on the counter and easily drop in egg shells, banana peels, etc. with one hand. The lid drops closed and then I can snap it shut. The flowers on the top are simple but make me smile every time I see them. It's easy to carry out to the compost bin and the trips are shorter because it holds SO much! Even during the intense summer heat there wasn't any odor. It is also super easy to clean...little bit of dish soap or some vinegar and baking soda.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Because we retired to a condo with gardening restrictions, this is the first time in 30 years we haven't had a backyard compost pile. I get around this limitation by saving scraps, then burying them uncomposted in the flower beds. The scraps simply disappear in our terrible clay soil, gradually improving it. Because my husband didn't like the bucket I was using (unattractive, no tight lid, odor and fruit flies), I gave him this compost pail for his birthday. Not romantic, but he's very happy with it.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
i like that i can just mount this under the sink; makes it very easy to dispose of our food waste for mulching.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I like your products [...]
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I put it under the sink, right next to the garbage pail. No extra effort -- or counter space -- required to collect food scraps for composting. How easy is that?
I use Biobags (sold on this site) to make clean-up super fast and easy. Just dump full bag into compost pile outside, rinse pail, add new bag and I'm done.

Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I love this pail because it's easy to clean and is durable. It won't crack if I drop it like the last ceramic one I had. Since I keep in kitchen more color choices would be great.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Great for storing the refuse, but it attracts fruit flies.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
This pail is great. We put it in our cabinet under our kitchen sink, just like is suggested. It is so convenient and NEVER smelly. We didn't attach it to the door of the cabinet which makes it even more convenient. We can pull it out and just brush our scraps right into it from the counter that way.

Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
the plastic is to hard to keep clean and takes on a lot of the ordors.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
it is a bit of a challenge fitting it under my sink around the disposal but other than that a great product
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I love my compost pail. It holds a lot of food scraps so there is no need to trek out to the compost pile to empty it after every meal like smaller countertop versions. The charcoal filters make it virtually odor-free. I re-use plastic produce bags to line the pail which makes clean-up a snap. I am on my second pail - I accidentally broke the lid off my first one but it still serves me well as a carry-all for my garden tools!
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I keep this pail under my kitchen sink. When preparing a meal I place it on the counter and put all the scraps (no meat) in it. When it gets full I take it out to my composter and dump it. I am feeding my garden with good compost which in turn feeds me. Life is good!!
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
The compost pail is the ideal container to collect all those items for the compost pile in the garden! Great capacity and easy to clean!
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I'm a new composter. This bin makes the in-the-house part easy. Flips open with one hand so I can throw in scraps with the other. Snaps tightly shut. Looks nice enough to leave out right next to the sink. Good capacity - holds several days of scraps. Contains odors well.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Works very well to hold kitchen scraps until we take them out to the compost pile. It is not designed for composting and actually, who wants a 'compost pile' in their kitchen. I am not sure the carbon filters provide any reduction in orders.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
It is nice looking and fits into the Kitchen nicely. Allows me to keep it handy at all times. Very nice size.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
This product is functional and has good capacity. But the plastic absorbs the odor of the decomposing kitchen waste. After emptying it, I have to keep it filled with water and some cleaner for a day or so to get rid of the odor. I would consider a ceramic one next time.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I use this mostly in colder months, keeping it in the garage to receive compost until I can easily get outside to the big compost pile.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I try to do my part with recycling. I had been using a large coffee can until I splurged and bought this bucket-very wise decision
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Keeps smells out of the kitchen. Good size for my use of egg shells and coffee grinds.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
Perfect for keeping under the counter. Good capacity.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
We are required to compost kitchen scraps (non-meat and dairy). This compost bin is just fine. I put bio bags inside, then transfer to the large compost can provided by our garbage company.
There is no odor, does not attract flies, and doesn't take up too much space on my kitchen counter.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I have tried composting kitchen garbage for years, but always got turned off because of the smell. This product has a charcoal filter that keeps the smell contained & the biodegradable bags you can buy for it are great - no messes!
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I don't know what I would do without this compost pail! I LOVE IT! I actually have purchased them for several friends who compost as well. It holds much more than it appears that it would. There are just two of us in our house, so it can take several weeks to fill, and we eat veggies quite often. The carbon filters work exceptionally well, and no odor ever escapes. I've owned this pail for over a year and a half now, and I think I've only changed the filter once! This pail is so handy!
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
I bought this product for my husband who has just started a compost bin for us and we fill it in just a few days! We've become much more mindful of what to throw out and what we can recycle. I believe it's making us more eco-friendly about all our household waste not just food scraps.
Comments about Odor-Free Compost Pail:
This fits perfectly under the kitchen sink and makes saving scraps for composting easy!
