Tape up the air holes
For my purposes, this is ideal, but others might want something different.Purchased July 2023, now March 2024 and I'm still really happy with the product.This bin quickly attracted loads of fruit flies, because it has holes in the lid. I have no clue why they put holes in it. Using a carbon filter was completely useless, you just get all the odour still plus fruit flies, so I just taped up the lid inside with packaging tape. Only had to do this once and the tape has stayed on. I've had zero issues with flies/odour around the bin ever since.The bin is pretty small (see photo with banana for size comparison lol), but it's perfect for me in a household where we cook at least 2 meals per day that generate fruit and veg scraps. I have to empty it once per day.The lid: there is a narrow rubber strip set into the lip of the lid (see photo). This is to create a seal to prevent odour from escaping. This works fine, however be aware that food will get stuck under the rubber seal and you'll need to remove the rubber strip and scrub everything, then put the seal back on. Over time, I can see the seal will probably wear out quite quickly doing this, which is a downside, however for the time being it the rubber seal is not deteriorating, and it does work to keep odour in the bin.Another review mentioned rusting on the lid, and it's true it will get some rust on it, however if you look at my pictures you'll see it's not too bad. Zero rusting inside the bin, and I wash mine out just with water every day.This metal bin definitely beats buying a plastic one. It's great environmentally speaking, and aesthetically it has a classy old-time appeal.Great for the price.

Ok
Ok, not brilliant. Lid falls inside a lot. Would be improved with a hinged lid. Not very big

Attractive yet functional counter-top compost bin
This is just the right size for a countertop compost bin. The lid is quite stiff as another reviewer mentioned. I removed the elastic band seal and it now fits snuggly but you're no longer having a fight every time you need to put some waste in. It comes with 2 charcoal filters for the lid (one fitted and one spare). I don't know how effective these really are in terms if reducing or eliminating nasty niffs, but I probably wouldn't bother buying replacement filters once these two are gone. Overall it is well made and quick and easy to hand-wash. Very happy with this purchase.

Bidoncino per umido
Molto bello e utile. Prima usavo dei contenitori di recupero da tenere sul piano cucina per raccogliere scarti di frutta, verdura e simili da portare poi al compostaggio. Ora utilizzo questo contenitore che oltre a essere esteticamente bello è anche comodo. Il manico permette di spostarlo con praticità, il coperchio e l'apposito filtro trattengono gli odori e infine si lava facilmente. Lo Consiglio

Très satisfaite
Je cherchais depuis un petit temps un remplacement pour la boîte en plastique qui servait d'intermédiaire avant de porter les restes au compost du fond du jardin. Très pratique et sans odeur. La bonne grandeur.
