Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Norpro 1 Gallon Stainless Steel Compost Keeper
Customer Review: Awesome
Summary: 5 Stars
The fruit flies and smell of the previous compost bucket were causing my roommates to rebel against our continuing to compost at all. I bought this little pail, and the problems are solved. NO fruit flies (yay!) and there are times when we've had stuff in there for weeks that we'd forgotten about, brewing a truly nasty moldy mess, but still no smell (until we open the pail, of course). We've had it several months now and have not felt a need to change the filter yet; it still seems to be working fine. I'd recommend it to anyone who doesn't have the self-discipline to take out composting scraps every day.Customer Review: just what I wanted
Summary: 5 Stars
I did my homework and read the reviews on this one and the ceramic one and decided from the reviews to purchase the stainless steel crock because the ceramic one breaks easily if you bump it and I am good at bumping things. I am not disappointed. I like the size. I don't have to dump it very often and it cleans up very nicely. Just use dishsoap and water. I had read that someone did not like it because of fruit flies. I have not had any problem with this at all. The filter works great. No smell at all. I don't think that anyone would be disappointed with it. It is very well made.Customer Review: Love my new Norpro Stainless Steel Composter Keeper!
Summary: 5 Stars
I received my new composter keeper a few weeks ago -- I LOVE it! We were using an old cookie jar with a lid, which was nasty to clean and difficult to dump. The new pail is fabulous...very easy to clean & a great size -- I only have to dump it once every four days (and we are a family of 5 eating lots of fruits & veggies), yet it is still small enough to sit on my counter and blends in with all my stainless steel appliances. The handle makes it so easy to carry/dump and even after four days with garlic and onion peels there is no odor. I highly recommend it.Customer Review: Excellent Kitchen Composter
Summary: 5 Stars
This composter is an excellent kitchen countertop composter. The filter seems to control all odors. I line mine with small kitchen plastic garbage bags. I noticed that the filter is the same carbon material that is readily available at local home/hardware stores that is used with air purifiers. I buy the carbon filter material in a roll and cut it to fit this pail. I am a beginning composter and found the size perfect for my small kitchen, but big enough to hold several days worth of kitchen waste before making the trip to the compost pile.Customer Review: No Stink!
Summary: 5 Stars
After we were able to recycle food waste through our waste mgmt company, we started out using just a plastic bowl with a lid to collect the waste. Uck! This is so much easier. I don't think anyone would ever confuse this for a regular canister out on the counter but it doesn't look bad, just functional. Given that our garbage and recycling sit under the sink I'm not sure how anyone would have room for food waste under there too. The lid comes off very easy. And there is no smell. I'd certainly buy it again and recommend it to friends.
