My Sweet Brand New Stainless Steel Compost Pail
I’ve had my EZ grip stainless steel compost pail for about a week now and I have to say, I could not be more pleased. I have always considered myself fairly eco-friendly, and I’ve had a compost pile in the back yard for quite a while now, but up until now, I’ve been stuck with trying to remember to take out the fruit peelings and coffee grounds as soon as I was done with them. For some time, we used a plastic container on the counter top, but it invariably started to smell horrible and we wound up with a terrible fly problem, so that ended almost as quickly as it started.
Now at long last though, I think I have stumbled upon the solution. This cute little compost pail fits right on my (always messy, of course) kitchen counter and can hold up to a week’s worth of kitchen scraps before its full. All the while, because of its filter, it doesn’t smell! To make things even better, because it is stainless steel, I don’t have to worry about it getting kicked off the counter and getting cracked, unlike that ugly old plastic bucket.
The handle on it is great also, as I can carry it like a teapot without having to worry about grabbing it by the wrong part and spilling it all over the floor. The other handles are nice too, easy to use and really comfortable. The lid fits on very tightly so I don’t have to worry about anything escaping or anyone getting into it. Anyone with cats or toddlers should know what I am talking about. This compost pail really is very well designed.
Because of its shiny stainless steel, it is easy to keep clean. A quick swipe of glass cleaner, or in very bad cases a sponge and it is as good as the day I bought it. The fingerprints I can live with, but if I really wanted to, I could also take care of those easily as well.
If you have a compost pile I highly recommend this thing to make getting your compost out to the pile next to hassle free. If you don’t already compost your kitchen scraps and lawn extras, there’s no time like the present to get started. It’s a perfict mean to reducing the amount of food waste going into the landfill and fertilize your garden as well!
