5 out of 5 stars It Works!   July 11, 2008
Jeremy Jackson (Seattle, WA USA)
I purchased this to replace my empty coffee can.

It works.

My only grip is the bottom is slightly bowled out so it wobbles. It's very slight and noticeable only when setting the unit back down. It's also expensive when thinking about its function. Coffee cans were performing the same function before, and almost as well.

Overall it does what is should. It's sizable, reducing number of emptying trips; has a good lid and filter, making it stink and fruit fly free; has a free swinging handle that clears the lid making it easy and comfortable to carry; and it's durable so I don't have to worry about dropping it or handling it with extra care (I mean come on, it's compost).



5 out of 5 stars just what I wanted   June 27, 2008
Anita Hoover (Spokane, WA)
I did my homework and read the reviews on this one and the ceramic one and decided from the reviews to purchase the stainless steel crock because the ceramic one breaks easily if you bump it and I am good at bumping things. I am not disappointed. I like the size. I don't have to dump it very often and it cleans up very nicely. Just use dishsoap and water. I had read that someone did not like it because of fruit flies. I have not had any problem with this at all. The filter works great. No smell at all. I don't think that anyone would be disappointed with it. It is very well made.


5 out of 5 stars Practical Compost Keeper   June 26, 2008
Green Mama (Grand Junction, CO)
I didn't carefully look at the dimensions before buying this product, and so was surprised at its size when I pulled it out of the box. It was larger than I expected. It's small enough to sit on the counter, but you wouldn't want it any bigger. The lid fits nicely and we have had no oder from the compost scraps. Also, it rises clean very easily after dumping into our outdoor compost pail. With stainless steel, the fingerprints show up on the outside of the pail, so I have to wipe it down from time to time, which is expected.

Excellent product. Has eliminated the gnats and other bugs that abounded when we did not have this item. Easy to keep clean and with the filter, there is no odor.


5 out of 5 stars Love my new Norpro Stainless Steel Composter Keeper!   June 21, 2008
D. Penner (Atlanta, GA)
I received my new composter keeper a few weeks ago -- I LOVE it! We were using an old cookie jar with a lid, which was nasty to clean and difficult to dump. The new pail is fabulous...very easy to clean & a great size -- I only have to dump it once every four days (and we are a family of 5 eating lots of fruits & veggies), yet it is still small enough to sit on my counter and blends in with all my stainless steel appliances. The handle makes it so easy to carry/dump and even after four days with garlic and onion peels there is no odor. I highly recommend it.
