Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
This is by far the best compost crock I have had for the kitchen counter and I have tried a variety of them over the years. I have had many compliments on how great it looks and I find the lift out plastic container easy to clean and strong enough.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
Have this sitting on my butcher block counter, so easy to just throw kitchen scraps in it as I prepare meals. It looks great, is a good size, easily cleaned and makes composting easy and stylish! I use the bio bags in it to keep things even cleaner. So only improvements I can think of are: Make it a little easier to use with the biobags (more lip on the liner perhaps?), and come up with a way to deal with the lid if you are leaving it open for awhile. Perhaps have it hinged, have a hook on the side, or even make it so it can stack under the crock while in use? Just a thought.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
This is an attractive, easy solution that can easily be placed on the kitchen counter without calling alot of attention to itself.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
use it for kitchen scraps, it is very clean and no odor
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
I previously had a ceramic compost crock that fell off it's handle and cracked. It was still usable for a while but in a matter of months it had stains on the inside that no amount of scrubbing could get rid of. I decided to replace the ceramic crock with this bamboo crock and I love it! The inner canister makes it so easy to take kitchen scraps to the compost pile and keeping it clean is a cinch. It's much larger than the ceramic crock but still works well on my counter top. I'm so happy that I finally replaced the inferior crock I previously had with this fantastic product!
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
I loved this at first, but then out of the blue the bamboo split. It is still functional, but not attractive if turned the wrong way. Plus if any compost touches the lid, you may start to get mold on the lid. The metal handle on the pail also comes off easily if you have a full load in it, so make sure to carry the pail with both hands. I will be returning this and getting a different type.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
I use this bamboo crock for kitchen scraps. I usually have quite a lot of veg. scraps because I cook fresh whenever possible, and if you empty every couple of days in a larger composter, odor is no problem. The inner container is dishwasher safe, and as a bonus, it fits in beautifully with my kitchen! You really can't get any better than that!
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
This product is a great compliment for our kitchen. It holds a surprising amount allowing us to hold nearly a weeks worth of kitchen scraps.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
I like this very much. It looks great wherever put. Can wash plastic container after emptying, saves on using plastic bags. Doesn't look like a usual compost container.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
We bought this countertop crock to put our kitchen scraps in before transferring them to a compost pail with a filter that we keep under the sink. We were attracted to the bamboo design, as it matches our kitchen cabinets. It is indeed very attractive, plus it also has a good capacity, and best of all it is easy to remove the liner to empty and clean it. Excellent design!
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
We use the Bamboo pot for kitchen food scraps. It is easy to clean and looks lovely on our kitchen counter. I wish it had another slightly larger choice of sizes. Having two choices would be great for the variety of family sizes and counter space.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
Looks great on counter. Has a large capacity with no oder!
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
Attractive enough to leave on kitchen counter. Love the ease of transporting removable pot of scraps to the compost pile outside. So easy - no odors, and holds way more than I expected.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
This works great. I use with the biobags. No smell, even with several days worth of scraps.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
Looks good on the counter. At first, I was worried that it was too small, but I really don't want anything bigger on the counter, and it just means taking the bucket out every three days or so.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
No one would know this is a composter. I love it.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
Such a big improvement from the plastic container I previously was using. It's attractive, holds a lot and doesn't look ugly on my counter. Doesn't have charcoal to prevent odor so when you open it up to add more it still smells a bit, but you can control this by emptying more frequently.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
Looks nice and the removable inner bucket makes it easy to empty into the composter.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
This is attractive and useful, with a removable, easy-to-clean interior bucket. The first time we took the bucket out, the handle released on the way to the compost bin, dumping garbage all over the lawn. My husband was quite scornful of the compost bin after that, and now I always take the compost out. However, it was a minor matter to bend the handle into a place where it did not disconnect from the bucket. The only problem is that when you make it tight enough to stay in, the ends of the handle stick out just a little too far and scrape the sides of the bamboo part, and then the bucket doesn't fit right. So you have to fiddle with it to get it to work right. That being said, I love the way it looks and fits into the kitchen decor, and since I fixed it, it has been fine.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
Small for kitchen counter and so far I have no odor. I deposit it weekly into my outside composter, which I would like to upgrade to the kind that you turn each day and it composts quickly.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
Love the fact that I can keep this out on the counter by the sink because it is attractive. I don't forget and put things down the disposal.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
Love the cannister very hansome on the counter
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
I use this on my kitchen counter to collect all vegetable and fruit scraps as well as coffee grounds and teabags. I love being able to lift out the plastic liner to take to the compost bin outside. The bamboo looks very attractive in the kitchen and I'm not worried about breaking the lid on my tile counter tops.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
Great addition in the kitchen.
Larger capacity.
Could use something in the lid to absorb odors
(like the ceramic crocks have).
Replaced a ceramic crock because I broke the lid.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
Love the bamboo modern look!
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
You'll enjoy using it.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
Prior to using this product we used a bowl with a plate over the top to block odors. I love this product! No more odors, easy to clean, attractive. What more could I ask for?
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
This is a great crock with a nice pull-out pail inside. Looks great and works great too.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
I like this compost bucket. It is attractive and large. It holds plenty. I use it to hold a days worth of scraps and then haul it to the chickens at the end of the day.

Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
This compost bin made from a renewable resource fits nicely next to the sink. Is easy to use and clean.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
My husband and I had been looking for a container to keep on the counter for waste that could be composted. We were using a little plastic clear container for about a year and would have to dump it in the compost bin every evening. This Bamboo crock is great-it looks good on the counter and holds alot of waste-no odor!
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
very attractive, and love the bucket inside with handle for easy empty.. no need for bags, just dump, and rinse and you are ready to go.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
Bought this because our local garbage pickup service has now started letting us recycle our food waste in our green cart. This has worked well, but I find it's filling up quickly. It is very attractive sitting on my kitchen counter and I have no odor problems.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
This looks great on my countertop and allows me to keep the vegetable and coffee grounds that I save for my compost out of sight. The plastic inside pail is easy to clean. So far so good.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
Used to just have a name brand bowl. This is so much better, no smell, nice handle to take basket out to compost pile with. Just another good thing to help with our enviornment!!
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
I love the looks of this composter in my new kitchen. It is bigger than I need for a household of 2, so I have to remember to empty it before it's or it starts to smell. I miss the odor control that the charcoal filter in my old composter provided.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
Watch for mold on the top of lid!
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
We had to return this item and exchange it for the pottery one. The lid did not fit tightly on the container and the liner made it worse. It certainly would not have stopped odors from escaping.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
Lid keeps the smells in and the garbage out of sight!
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
I keep this small composter on my kitchen counter, and it looks like a decorative canister. It's so easy to pull the plastic insert out to dump it into my large, outdoor composter. The main thing I love is that I don't smell the remains while they're breaking down in there. This product has made me eager to see what else is available from Gardener's Supply!
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
Very Attractive. No need to hide it under the counter
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
Best looking countertop compost container we've had and that includes your stainless one. But we had to file edge of liner to allow lid to fit right. And we contrived a way to attach a charcoal deodorizer pad.

Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
loved the crock initially,but found the glue holding the cylinder not waterproof. Can't help getting water on the crock when washing and cutting veggies, plus we keep it near the sink for convience. Put it on a tile and the cylinder did come back together some.
glue was not waterproof
another picture of separation
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
It definitely looks nicer and will not break like other kitchen compost holders.

Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
Beautiful container with really easy to remove and dump bucket inside. No odor at all when closed. It looks great in my kitchen and doesn't look at all like a compost crock. Only drawback is that there isn't much of a finish on the inside. Am thinking about putting on a light urethane finish, just to keep moisture from the veggies from making it damp.

Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
My last kitchen scrap compost pail was red ceramic, and though I loved the look, it was breakable and eventually broke. This bamboo kitchen scrap holder is even better- I LOVE the removable liner with handle that you just grab and head to the composter. It has a bigger capacity too, and for some reason there is no odor! It has an attractive, warm look, which would fit into about any kitchen. I couldn't be more pleased, unless it was free!

Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
We eat a lot of fruits and vegetables so we fill this container about once a day. This bamboo container is the most attractive one I've seen and the price here is better than on some other sites for the same product. Buy the "bio-bags" to go with it, they fit OK and they make cleaning the plastic bucket a snap.

Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
So far I like this product better than the crock. IT was hard getting a full bag out of the crock because of the narrow neck and wide body. With this product you just lift out the bucket empty and replace bag. Easy and convenient.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
Functional & attractive

Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
Looks beautiful on the counter without a hint of it's true purpose! The removable inside container easily comes out to empty or clean. The lid fits snug so there is no odor.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
I use this compost container for kitchen scraps. It holds enough and keeps it out of the way until there is enough to make a trip to my garage worm composting bin. It does take up some space on the counter but it is for a good purpose!
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
Excellent
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
This is quite large, would not fit in small kitchen. Looks good with
our oak cabinets. I wonder if the plastic/nylon liner will hold up and
what I'll do if I have to replace it. I like the simple design better than the
others on the market with their ugly knobs.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
This bamboo container was purchased for my sister-in-law who, at 83, is a surfer who still goes to the beach twice a week and spends part of every day in her organic garden. Until we gave her this gift, she kept a can under the sink for scraps. She is very set in her ways, and has little storage room in her small kitchen, but it only took her a moment to fall in love with this bamboo container and put it to work. Now her friends are asking where it came from. Thank you!
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
Very attractive, nice size for a small family. I love the removable pail and with the lid I do not notice any smells. (I like the fact that I don't need to keep buying disposible filters.) Problem: after 10 days of use it split the whole way down the side and the bottom fell out. Seems there is a glue holding issue. I am hoping they make some changes as I have read at least one other reviewer with this problem. I am also hoping they will replace mine without a hassle... up until this happened today I would have given it 5 stars all the way. I did so love it :>(
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
I am returning the item because I am concerned about getting knats because there is not a tight seal.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
Bought this for my son & his family. They are avid composters & love the removable pail for emptying & washing, lid for odor control. Love the bamboo-eco friendly & fits easily in the decor. Right size for kitchen counter.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
The removable liner makes transfering compost so easy and without risk of breakage. The bamboo container is beautiful.

This crock is functional and looks great sitting on my counter.

Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
I have tried a couple of kitchen compost collection containers. This one is the best. It is easy to open one handed, but still closes conpletely. It has a generous size. The plastic liner is easy to empty because of the handle. IT is also easy to clean and I don't have to purchase additional bags.

Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
This pail is very attractive, but split into two pieces within 3 weeks of purchase. Am going with one of the metal pails this time around.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
A beautiful way to collect kitchen scraps bound for the compost pile.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
We replaced this for a ceramic one that I loved but that we had broke probably 4 times. This one is attractive and easy to clean. Good value for the money
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
The large capacity, plastic removable pail, and good looks fit my life style well. However, it did not seem to have a good finish, so we added a couple coats of polyurethane to protect the wood.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
how about a stick-on filter/deodorizer for those of us too lazy to take the stuff outside often enough?

Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
Great looking counter compost container as well as holding a lot of kitchen scraps. You can also use a degradable liner in it for easy clean up.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
This container is actually better than I thought it would be. Having only used an old bowl for kitchen scraps and coffee grounds for nearly ten years, this was a great and long overdue improvement, and looks good with the natural maple cabinets in our kitchen.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
I was pleasantly surprised at how well the lid fit. I couldn't open it at first. The plastic liner is great for wandering out to the composter in the yard and cleans up fast. I like the handle on the plastic liner.

I love this little compost collector. The bamboo is attractive and the size is perfect for my countertop. I also love that I can sterilize the insert in my dishwasher from time to time.

Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
putting kitchen scrapes in then transferring to my kitchen composter
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
I got this for my mom. She was saving scraps for my home compost and for ones I have at school with a project to teach students about recycling.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
Great Idea. Bags need to be USA made, and of
a smaller size. I have not seen any kitchen pail that is that large. I have tried to trim the bags smaller but loses stability.
Comments about Bamboo Compost Crock:
This has a good holding capacity and looks nice on the kitchen counter.
