simplehuman Compost Caddy, Detachable and Countertop Bin, 4 Liter / 1.06 Gallon, Brushed Stainless Steel

This compost caddy is great. It is well made, sturdy and the lid fits snuggly. The bags fit perfectly and don’t show at all on the outside of the container so the container keeps its sleek look. The majority of the time there is no odor. If I do get a whiff of odor I just compost that bag and put in a new bag. The plastic bag holder can pick up some odors but they wash out. Interesting that even after emptying the full compost bag and the plastic container has an odor usually there was no odor outside of the container. Great buy.

Researched on YouTube and decided on this one. Great decision! This thing looks good on the counter, closes tightly, uses disposable bags inside which you cannot see from the outside, and I finally have a fruit fly free place to put scraps while I'm cooking!

We love it. It's compact enough to sit on the counter. The stainless steel matches our appliances, so it looks nice. Easy clean up. Plus, the lid has a tab that makes it easy to use with one hand. Great product.

My county has just started weekly curbside compost collection. A lidded pail was provided along with the curb bin, but the smell bothered my husband enough to banish it to the garage, making it hard for me to quickly toss eggshells, avocado peels, etc. Checking a lot of reviews, it looked like this one would do the trick, and I'm pretty pleased with it so far. Pros: Sturdy construction, very easy to pull apart, the green liner tub is strongly made and quite smooth for easy cleaning. My 3 gallon compostable bags line it quite nicely, albeit with plenty of extra bag "fabric" to fold over the rim -- actually a plus, as the bags don't have drawstrings, and this means I have enough to tie them off. Very nice looking. I'm pretty sure it traps the smell better than the county plastic tub. However I cannot guarantee that as my husband requested I keep it in the fridge so the scraps are kept quite cool. Cons: Not a problem for me as I don't usually generate enough food waste in a week to stuff it, but it is a fairly small volume. If you're cooking for large groups and have a ton of vegetable peels, bones, waste fat, and such, you'll be emptying this pretty often. As I said, 3 gallon bags are more than enough for it. Yet slim as it is, it doesn't fully fit in the fridge door bottom shelf (the only place I have room for it in there, and that shelf can hold gallon jugs of milk) and I'm concerned I'm going to crack the shelf plastic. Plus the only handle is the notch on the back side intended for socketing onto a large trash bin, so I have to two-handed grab the bin out when I have more than a small handful of things to drop in it. Since the top portion of the bin is held on only by gravity, if I forget and grab it too high up I just pull up the top. I'm still happy with it, but a lifting swivel handle would do wonders. The fridge door shelf problem isn't this bin's fault in the slightest, so the one star off is due only to the handle issue.

Best thing we ever bought. Saves me multiple trips to the waste bin while preparing meals.

i had the problem of broken bags that wouldnt fit. contacted simplehuman customer service which promptly sent me bags under warranty. the replacements work! this is a great countertop caddy even if you don't compost original review: The matching liners are simply atrocious Liners don't fit around the mouth of the container, or just rip apart while opening. And without the matching liners, what's the point of paying more for Simplehuman products? Come on guys, get it right--this weak link is just *too weak*

The compostable bags given for this device split and tear when you try to put the compatible liner on the bin. I tried 4 times with no success. The compost caddy looks nice but it not worth 49.99. The lid does not have a good seal around it so fruit flies get inside and have a huge propagation party. If you it for banana peels the smell will also seep out since there is not a good seal.

I recently added the Small Compost Trash Can to my kitchen setup, and it's been a game-changer! This little gem hangs conveniently at the side of my regular trash can, making it super accessible for composting while I cook. What I love most about this compost bin is how easy it is to clean. The smooth surface wipes down effortlessly. It's incredibly low-maintenance, which is a huge plus in my book. The lid design is great. It's easy to open with just one hand, stays open if I want it to during food prep, yet it effectively blocks out any odors. This means I can compost without worrying about unpleasant smells lingering in my kitchen. I typically empty mine only once or twice a week. Not only is this compost bin functional, but it also looks great. The sleek design complements my kitchen decor perfectly, and matches well with my brushed aluminum trash can. Overall, I couldn't be happier with my purchase. This compost bin is a convenient, easy-to-clean solution for composting that seamlessly integrates into my kitchen routine. If you're looking for a hassle-free way to reduce food waste, I highly recommend giving this compost bin a try!

Looks nice, bag doesn’t get stuck in it, but still getting flies which is why i paid a premium for this caddy

simplehumanのダストボックスは3代目でずっと愛用しています。現在、生ゴミ用は15Lですが、毎日ゴミ出しする捨てるわけではないので、生ゴミをそのまま捨てるとどうしても悪臭になってしまいます。そのため、一旦生ゴミを毎回スーパーにあるような薄いビニール入れて、それからゴミ箱に捨てていました。面倒だな〜と思っていたところ、シンプルヒューマンにこの「コンポストキャディ４L」という商品を見つけ購入しました。すごい！今までなら半日で臭くなる生ゴミが2日経っても匂いません。バナナの皮やフルーツの皮は臭わないけど、さすがに刺身のツマやキッチンシンクのゴミ受けに溜まったゴミは臭うだろうと思っていたら、抱え込んで嗅がないと臭いを感じません。本当に楽になりました。その上、大きなダストボックスの側面に取り付けることができます。２０２４年、買って一番良かった品です。

Complementa muy bien con otros productos de la marca Simplehuman pues viene con un adaptador para “colgarlo” a un costado de otros botes de basura grandes/dobles de la marca. Tiene precio un poco elevado para un bote de basura pero lo compensan su gran calidad y diseño. Por lo que hace a la durabilidad, los productos de esta marca son muy resistentes y se mantienen funcionales por más de 10 años, con un cuidado o mantenimiento mínimo-nulo. Lo mejor es que tiene un tamaño ideal para una o dos personas (4L), así ya sólo tienes que cambiar la bolsa 1 vez a la semana. Usa bolsas compostables Código Z de Simplehuman (viene 30 bolsas de regalo) pero puedes utilizar de marca genérica de 45x45cm y le quedan bastante bien.

We bought this alongside the matching 58L Simplehuman recycling bin, and together they make an excellent waste disposal system. The caddy spends most of its time attached to the bin, gets moved over to the food preparation area while cooking, then gets emptied into the main food waste compartment every couple of days. The removable inner bucket makes it easy to clean, the lid does a good job of keeping smells in, and it's solid enough that it doesn't feel like another bit of flimsy kitchen plastic. It's undeniably expensive for a compost caddy, but the build quality is excellent and it matches the larger bin perfectly. Sometimes it's nice when everyday objects are simply well designed. Recommended, particularly if you're already buying the matching bin.
