OXO Good Grips Easy-Clean Compost Bin, White - 0.75 GAL

This compost container is well-constructed and has adequate capacity for holding a significant quantity of kitchen waste for several days with daily use. As a frequent user of fresh produce, I find this container to be ideal for incorporating compostable items into my kitchen routine. Its slim design, ease of cleaning, and convenient handle make it particularly suitable for storage under the sink and transport to the compost pile or spinner. Notably, there is no discernible odor emanating from the container unless opened, which is as anticipated. I appreciate the flexibility of using it with or without compostable bags, as I have found that such bags tend to be too delicate and prone to tearing when full.

This compost bin is a great addition to my kitchen. The size is perfect for daily use, offering just the right amount of space for vegetable scraps without taking up too much counter space. The design is simple yet effective, and the lid seals well, keeping odors contained. I appreciate the easy-to-clean feature, as the bin is dishwasher-safe and wipes down easily. The charcoal color also blends nicely with my kitchen decor. Overall, it’s a functional and stylish solution for managing compostable waste at home. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for an easy-to-use compost bin.

This is a handy countertop compost bin that does not allow odors to escape unless the lid is open. Since the lid doesn’t seal I have no idea why the odors don’t escape; I only know that they don’t. We use a compostable liner with it so it stays clean. It is easy to flip the lid open with any part of your hand and the handle stays out of the way until you use it to carry it to your larger container or compost pile. The color is an attractive deep gray that looks good while being unobtrusive. It is sturdy and the lid removes easily for cleaning. We have no complaints and recommend it highly as long as the dimensions work for your space.

There are so many pluses with this Oxo Easy-clean counter top compost bin:It does clean easily, tho it also stains easily hence only four stars.It mostly hides the compost bags.The lid stays up during use making it very easy to peel, shuck, etc. right into it and easily closes when done with a light touch of a finger.Its appearance is innocuous.Its convenience is amazing.Odor is non-existent when closed.Wish I hadn’t waited as long as I did to purchase.The big downside is it easily stains. In retrospect, the gray may have been the better choice for that reason. As the staining is currently limited to the inside, the white still works better in my kitchen.

Living in NYC, our building now has very strict composting protocols and our building (yes, building, not only the city) is imposing fines on people incorrectly disposing of garbage. So despite living in an apartment, we have had to adapt to storing biodegradable waste. Despite frustration and fury at the prospect, I bought the larger of these two containers and can't say enough good things about it. I love the size, the lid, the capacity, the material it's made of, the handle - the list goes on. It's perfect for city living. It's easily washable, no odors in the kitchen. There isn't a single thing I don't like about this product. As much as I dreaded adapting to it, segregating bio/wet waste has become a breeze. Thank you to the previous posters who recommended buying the larger of the two sizes because in terms of counter space it's not much difference and the larger size is just right.

Our village recently added composting to our garbage pickup to keep compostable materials out of the landfill. While they provided a large bin that we keep outside, we needed something small to keep in the kitchen to hold compostable material temporarily. This has worked out perfectly for us. It's large enough that it can hold over a days worth and easily fits on our kitchen counter. The lid easily stays open while scooping in scraps and closes with just a tap, and sturdy handle makes it easy to carry to the big bin, and it's easy to clean. While this will work well with compostable bags, we've been using it bagless. So far we haven't had any issues with odor or bugs, but we tend to empty it out and rinse it out at least every other day, so nothing really stays long enough to cause a problem. This has helped us make a smooth transition to separating our compostable material instead of using the garbage disposal or putting it in our normal trash.

Our building just began composting as of April 1st here in NYC. We don’t have a lot of kitchen space but this is the most PERFECT little compost bin for our situation. It actually holds a good amount for us and it’s so easy to use and convenient to take out to the compost bin in front of our building. The best part it looks great, it keeps all the smells inside the bin and it’s super easy to clean. So glad we chose this indoor compost bin!!!

Compact & fits nicely on counter and blends in with other kitchen appliances. Holds all the smells inside. Has good hold capacity. Easy to clean.
