Bye Bye Fruit Flies,
We’ve had this compost bucket for a year and we are really happy with it.
It may not be the prettiest, but it is by far the best one we’ve found.
What we like:
* It has a relatively low footprint, especially considering the capacity. It usually takes us about 2 days to fill it up.
* Convenient to use -It has a hinged lid. When you are cooking, you can lift the lid, and it stays open. Once you are done, you just push it lightly to close.
* It closes well, so there are no odors escaping, and no chance for fruit flies to breed.
* When we first bought it, our place had a ton of happy fruit flies parading all over the kitchen. The fruit flies were gone within two weeks of getting the composter.
* We have it on our countertop, but it is small enough to store it under the sink. It is relatively light, and has a handle, so it is easy to take out and put it back in.
* The bags are fully compostable. They may seem pricey, but a package with 25 bags usually lasts a couple of months.
* Since the scraps go inside the compostable bag, the bucket itself stays relatively clean. With other, better looking compost buckets, you have to thoroughly clean out the container each time you empty it, and those rotten scraps can get kind of gross — not a problem with this one.
* Unlike other systems, there is no filter to purchase.
Overall, we are very happy with this compost bucket.

|Poor Choice,
I did not have a happy experience with this compost keeper. It is extremely cheap, roughly sculpted, and brittle. You feel like the weight of your compost will break it. Fruit flies still found their way if you didn’t snap the lid down tightly enough, and snapping the lid down tightly resulted in the flimsy hinges snapping and breaking before two or three weeks had elapsed. Taping it together didn’t help much, either.
I threw in the towel and paid about twice as much for a heavy duty, high-impact plastic model made by a competitor, with which I haven’t had a single problem in about eight months, and it has seen some rough duty. I still use the Bio-bags, although they can leak if you have juicy stuff in there for more than two days.
