The Caddy Company Extra Large Metal Kitchen Compost (Clay colour) & 50x 10L Biobags & composting guide - Composting Bin for Food Waste Recycling

When this first arrived I totally loved it. It looks amazing, lovely colour and design. However, frequently when being washed, the rubber part round the rim of lid comes off and needs reattached which is not always easy to do. If it wasn't for that, it would be perfect. But it is a bit annoying, so have decided not to buy my daughter one which I had been going to do. Hope this is useful, to buyers and supplier. I think it could be remedied by supplier.

A perfect size compost bin that doesn't need emptied for about a week, and will look great in any kitchen. The lid has a seal that sits inside the bin and keeps the smells inside with no overflow like other bins. I was not sure I would need the bags, but now I can't believe how much easier it is with them. Thus buying this with the bags was an excellent way to find out if the bags are for you and the price for them in this package deal is worth it! The delivery and packaging is good with no chance of it getting damaged in transit.Out of all the choices of compost bins on this website, I would highly recommend this one - I have had this for nearly a month and I know it's the best one we have ever had.

This looks really good and the size fits perfectly on the draining board. At first the seal was really strong and if you pushed the lid down, it sort of locked. Unfortunately after a couple of weeks the seal stopped working and then the rubber washer thing fell out every time I took the lid off. It is fiddly to replace it all the time but I am forgiving it because the whole thing looks so good. I wouldn't buy one again.

We were surprised how much we use this composter. There are no leaks thanks to the removable inner lining & there are no smells because of the rubber seal on the under side of the lid. It's large enough for a small families waste but not so large that it's imposing or taking over too much counter top.

Arrived promptly, well packaged and as described. The lid has an effective seal to keep smells in and the inner bucket has a metal handle which helps when emptying. Comes apart easily for cleaning. Has proved well made and durable so far. A really jolly addition to my kitchen.
