Beautiful, sturdy, bigger than expected!
This is an excellent receptacle of compost. I would say that it’s much larger than what it seems like in the pictures. Expect it to be perfectly sized for 3-4 days of food for a single person who likes eating veggies!
Beautiful
It is both convenient for compost in the kitchen for scraps as well as nice to look at. It’s size is just right for scraps, but not so big to be difficult to move or an eyesore.
Looks great on the counter
Looks great on the counter, easy to clean. Probably a bit on the expensive side, seeing that it is essentially a stainless steel container (similar to the ones used in chef kitchens and bars) with a rectangular wood cover.
