Joseph Joseph 30016 Intelligent Waste Compost Bin Food Waste Caddy with Odor Filter and Ventilation 1 gallon / 4 liters Gray 30016

We use a lot of fresh produce everyday and didn't want to just throw those wet/moist vegetable peels etc onto the regular trash bin. We bough an Ikea Halbrand but found it too big. The capacity was too much and if you wait for that to fill up, you'd end up with stinky garbage/compost. Buying the bag for it would be wasteful too since you'll only end up using a portion of it and then throwing it after 1.5 days. I went on to Amazon and search for a food compost caddy. It was either this one or the one from Oxo. I chose this one because I was sold on the filter. I wanted the the contents to be able to 'breathe' so they won't end up stinky.

Colour, size and functionality exactly what I wanted. Thank you.

I was really excited to get this product. Good brand name too. Awful - doesn’t seal properly and obviously not good as allows stuff in - ergo many midgey flies when opened. It is odourless with the filter, looks good, nice size but no way can I deal with flies - 😞 Now is just used as countertop trash can and emptied n cleaned after every cooking/prep use. Too late to return - but if I had used it in time, I certainly would have returned it.

I know this is a compost bin but I needed something a little bigger than a desk top trash can I know it's unconventional but I use it as a trash can when im scooping my cats litter box ( I don't like holding the doggie bags when im scooping) it's wide enough so I don't drop any litter or gross stuff on the floor and plenty of inches in space left all around where the litter scoop doesn't touch the sides I have a 5.2 inch litter scoop. It is small and compact enough that it doesn't take up a whole lot of room but deep enough to hold a good amout of litter or other things for what you will be using it for. The lid stays up perfectly im not sure about smell since im not using it as a compost bin but I do not leave the scooped litter in there I take it out after and replace the bag for the next scoop. So i cant say anything about keeping smells out but For me this little bin is amazing and perfect for what I was looking for and what i need. It feels very sturdy. Super easy to clean and give it a good wash. Not really any assembly needed just pop the lid on and off the part where you put the charcoal filter you squeeze and push out if anyone is having trouble with that but super easy once you get the hang of it. The bin was a bit pricey but personally for me and what I needed to use it for was well worth the price I have a attached a video I use the doggie bags jumbo size 15 x 20 inches and it fits perfect.

This is a great organics bin, I've had mine for about two months now and not one complaint. It cleans easy, bags are easy to switch out and there's a spot inside the bin where a new bag can be fastened so it stays put and doesn't move around on you. It comes with a small carbon filter which is very good for not letting any odours escape the unit. The lid fits tight and sturdy, the handle tucks away behind the unit and the whole thing looks neat and tidy on the countertop and is the perfect size for several days of food scraps (for two people at least, we cook a lot at home so we do use it constantly throughout the day). The lid stays up and out of the way nicely when you open it to throw the scraps in without closing on you unexpectedly. Mine is the charcoal color and looks great, and the design makes it easy to tuck out of the way and fit against the wall easily. I'm super happy with it overall!

Nice upgrade from using a basic bowl with a lid. Exactly what I was looking for, thank you! A kitchen scraps receptacle with: * an attached flip-lid that we can operate with a light touch from a knuckle (or flick of a wrist, or close of a drawer), with no soiled-bottomed lid that you have to pick up (with your potentially messy hands) and set down somewhere. * a sturdy and comfortable handle that makes it easy to lift out from or set down in a cabinet or drawer, to relocate around the kitchen, and carry out of the house— with no worries about a messy slip up. * a low profile that fits perfectly inside a drawer beneath our kitchen sink. Even if we happen to leave it out on the countertop or table, the low profile, clean lines and tint (which is relatively color-coordinated with our space) makes it inconspicuous. * size/width that gives you plenty of space to accurately slide or drop material inside without making a mess over the edges. Also, the product's lightweight material and shape make it easy to hold (with one hand) against the edge of the counter/ under your cutting board, if that's what feels right. * removable top and smooth lines make it easy to tip out contents and give the caddy a quick swish to rinse and keep relatively clean. We empty ours at a rate of daily to every-other day, so odor and fruit flies aren't an issue. (Not that it would be the product's fault if these were our issues. It's a receptacle not a composter, folks!) It was good of the manufacturer to include a complimentary carbon filter, nonetheless. Maybe someday we'll use it. A thoughtflly-designed product— thanks again!

Good material quality, small size convenient for small kitchens or close to the sink. Excellent filter and good blocking the smell of trash, easy to use and replace plastic bag, easy to wash and move.

This one is great, i really like it! Its easy to clean, and it looks good on the counter top. It doesnt smell either. I buy small bags from the store and they fit perfectly. No need to buy the expensive ones from the same brand. I can recommend this one.
