When kitchen recycling became mandatory in NYC, I thought I would hate it. Too much trouble, and where would I find space in my small city kitchen? But I got this container and now I actually love composting. It sits right on my counter, taking very little space, and I can deposit peels and pits and eggshells and such just inches from my kitchen work area--no more peels landing on the floor by my big garbage can. Trader Joe produce bags fit just fine so I don't even need to buy special bags. Since most of the stuff that gets stinky goes in here, my bigger garbage stays fresh much longer (unless I have plastic with fish or chicken essence on them). The biodegradable bags are delicate and porous, so I deliver them to the building bin in the green insert to safeguard against any splitting or leaking bag disasters. I have noticed that the green inner bin collects clear, odorless liquid that must seep through the biodegradable plastic, so I just rinse it before putting in a new bag. I love the green insert and the fact that the lid stays up when you want it to and down when you want it tightly shut. Also, the compostable bag doesn't show when this bin is assembled (I tried another where it did show and it didn't look nice). So far I haven't noticed any odors, even after days with veggie and animal refuse marinating in there--maybe because the lid limits how much air gets in. Urban composting is really no hassle after all, and actually a plus, thanks to this nicely designed bin.

I love this compost bin. I have tried purchasing a few other bins but have been unsatisfied. This one is a keeper. The size is perfect for a family of 4's 2—3 day composting. The fact that I can wash the inside bin in the dishwasher is a big plus. I often feel gross washing stinky and dirty trash bins.

Needed a compost bin for new NYC law. It was smaller than anticipated meaning I have to take out more frequently but probably a good thing because the contents inside tend to smell. I can't tell if it hides the smell well. Very easy to clean. Comes with bags which was unexpected

I contacted SH customer service a year and a half after I had purchased this item because the lid was broken. Even though the product was out of warranty, they offered to replace the part and ship it also free of charge as a courtesy.

I like the small space it takes on my counter and neat appearance. Others said they could not use their slightly larger compost bags, but they work for me. I pull the excess bag material to the back as I assemble and just a tiny bit pokes out in the middle of the back where no one looks. The inner bucket is easy to carry out to the bin when emptying. It rinses clean and contains odors when closed. For our family we need to empty it twice a week. I would say our kitchen is fairly quiet but not unused. I have not had it long, but it seems more likely to hold up than the all plastic competitors.

No more stinky trash or running out to the yard waste can all the time. Superhuman compost caddy makes it easy to do the right thing with kitchen scraps. With its clean design, it looks nice on the kitchen counter. Especially with our stainless-steel appliances. It doesn’t take up too much space on the countertop. No smell at all. In our household of two, we normally empty it about once a week. Sometimes more often. Easy to empty. Easy to replace the compostable bag. We tried another brand of refill compost bags. They didn’t fit as snugly on the canister as the Simplehuman brand bags. I just tie a knot on the corner for a snug fit. If you don’t mind spending a little more, the Simplehuman brand of refill bags is probably going to be a better fit and a tad more convenient.

We have been composting for 4 years now, being lucky enough to live in a city that does curbside compost pickup. One major benefit of composting is that **our trash has stopped smelling bad.** It's an incredible perk. HOWEVER. To actualize this benefit, you need a compost bin with HOLES in the lid. People keep thinking they want an airtight bin to keep odors out of the kitchen, and product companies market to uninformed consumers, resulting in this ridiculous product from Simple Human. That's NOT how compost works. Food stinks as it rots when it decomposes anaerobically, ie without oxygen, ie what happens when you have a lid without air holes. Like this one. So: After 4 years of enjoying an odor-free kitchen, every time I open this tiny bin, I reel, because it STINKS. And right now it's less than a quarter full, and the food has been there for ONE night only. (Notice that others who don't have a problem with odor note that they have no problem *when the lid is closed.* With a good compost bin, you shouldn't have a problem when the lid is open either.) We bought this originally to match the stainless steel of our kitchen appliances, but it is ABSOLUTELY NOT worth the cost of 1. Extra odor, and 2. Having to take the compost out more frequently because of smaller bin capacity. We will stick with our city-provided bin until some product company smartens up and makes a proper bin with air holes.

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.

I bought this after getting a new kitten who would jump up on the worktop after I'd gone to bed and attack the liner leaving it shredded. It also meant she could get at the food inside too. This looked to be a bit more robust than the plastic caddy and also much more aesthetically pleasing. It looks really smart and matches the grey and white kitchen well. The cat has ignored it completely so I guess that means it is containing the food odours. It came with 30 liners which are strong and fit perfectly and they are very easy to change. It looks much nicer now that the liner is not visible like on my old caddy. I tend to empty it daily, or at least every other day, so haven't had a problem with flies like some people have mentioned. It doesn't hold that much so it needs to be emptied frequently which is fine by me. So far I've not found any negatives that I could mention. It is quite pricey, but worth forking out for as there are not really many others like this around. It looks great, does the job and is cat-proof!
