Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Norpro GRIP-EZ Stainless-Steel Composter Keeper with 2-pc. Replacement Filter Set
Customer Review: Compost Keeper
Summary: 5 Stars
The Norpro Stainless-Steel Composter Keeper is great. Before we got it, we were just putting our kitchen compost in an open container on the counter. Although we never really had odor problems, because I took it out daily, we did have a couple instances of fruit flies. That's when we decided to get the Compost Keeper. Now I don't take out the compost until I have a full container. Having all stainless appliances, it blends in nicely with the rest of the kitchen. Perhaps my favorite feature is the weight of the product. This is a high quality product, and even though it seals pretty well around the edges when closed, the container is heavy enough to allow you to remove the lid with one hand without having to hold the bottom part down, even when empty. This is convenient when you have a banana peel or egg shells in one hand and just need to lift the lid, toss them in, and replace the lid. It has a comfortable handle that makes transporting it to the garden a breeze, too. I highly recommend this product.Customer Review: Works well minor problems after 1 year of use

I got this last year as a wedding gift and my wife and I love it. We fill it up durring the week and then I run it down to our compost pile in the back yard oon the weekend. It is full by the end of the week and constantly has items like bananna peels, egg shells and lettuce trimmings in it Here are some thoughts:
pros:
- small enough to not look ackward on a counter top
- filters do a nice job keeping smell away
- Looks good
- So far finish on the outside has not tarnished.
- grip handle is nice
Cons:
- inside of the container has been discolored.
- Some signs of minor rust has started
- SOmetimed handle can be a pain to manuever.
Works well except for the problem of the inside becoming discolored. Keep in mind it took a year for this to happen. Good value for the price.
Customer Review: No problem

This thing works great ... it sits in the corner of our kitchen near the garbage can and we've been putting every scrap of compostable material in there since it arrived. We keep a larger, 5-gallon bucket out on the back deck which we empty this unit into once or twice a week, then I carry the 5-gallon bucket out to the garden from there. Combined with my Mantis Twin Drum composter, I'm going to be an unstoppable force when gardening season rolls around in May. Also, the filter in the top of this Norpro works like a charm -- there is no worry about any smell or stench inside your home from it. This item was a little bit pricier than some of the other offerings, but its sturdy construction, good looks, effective filter, and appropriate size all add up to a satisfied customer.Customer Review: Amazing (and Beautiful to Boot)!

This compost keeper is truly amazing! I add in all sorts of disgusting food bits, leave it out at room temperature, and it sits there on my counter -- looking stunning -- with NO odor. I put my nose right next to the ventilation holes on the lid and sniff -- nada. It holds about a week of our vegetable and fruit kitchen scraps (including daily coffee grounds and multiple tea bags), making it very convenient for the casual composter or vermiculturalist. The lid fits very snugly. This is a solid, quality product; and it is one that I could not recommend more highly. Odorless. Pleasing to the eye. Amazing.Customer Review: Wonderful product, love it!

My husband has taken up composting this summer and the plastic bucket on the kitchen counter just wasn't cutting it. I don't like the way it looks and even though it had a snap on lid I swear I could still smell it. The stainless steel compost pail with a filter in the lid has really done the job for me. It looks nice sitting on the counter by the sink and no more odors imagined or otherwise. When I empty it I can rinse it out at the faucet out back and it is ready to collect again. I would recommend this to anyone who composts.
