Does the job

Overall, I am happy with the product. It keeps the compost smell out of the kitchen and is nicer to look at than a bowl of scraps. The only negative I have is that I'm afraid I will break it because it is ceramic. Also on the inside bottom edge of the canister there is a rim, so some food always seems to get stuck inside. It looks nice though and is good for the price.

Nice product but if I did it over again - Stainless

I purchased this product after already owning the stainless version for a year. I gave the stainless to someone else because this white ceramic pedestal - looking object seemed to fit with my decor better. But what I've found is, (1) I am for the first time a bit nervous about breaking it or breaking glass tea pots when I shake the loose tea into this container, (2) it is certainly heavier than the stainless when lugging it (the weight is not a deal breaker), and MOST IMPORTANTLY, (3) it does not seem to seal around the edge of the top anywhere as well as its stainless counterpart resulting in fruit flies getting attracted to it and actually inside on a regular basis - something that NEVER happened with the stainless one. So carbon filter helps a lot but the leaky cover undermines the filter.

Still compared to not having either choice and seeing how nicely made this object is, it gets the benefit of just over half credit in my scoring.

I'd go back to stainless in a heartbeat when I feel the moment has come.

Not bad, not great either

This is a nice little compost bin until you drop it by accident. My husband recently dropped the top of it, and one huge piece broke off along with several small pieces. We have decided to buy a stainless steel bin. Other than that, we have enjoyed using it.

small, but effective

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.
