#1: RSVP International Endurance Jumbo Compost Pail 1.5-gal. Reviews!
As we did not want a "garbage can look" on our kitchen counter, we bought the RSVP International Jumbo Compost Pail, 1.5 gallon size, with "under the sink" in mind. It looks great THERE. Going up from the more traditional 1-gallon size, this pail's advantage is fewer trips to the compost outside. It's easy to clean and offers a filter on the inside of the pail cover as well.
One caveat, however: After only three weeks use, I took it outside, inverted it to empty the contents, and discovered that the screw holding the left side of the handle had popped out. Lucky for me, both screw and nut fell into the pail and did not disappear in a pile of grass clippings, melon skins, apple cores, coffee grounds, egg shells, (etc.). You might not be as lucky.
Moral? The handle construction might be the Achille's heel of this product. If you buy it, check the screws on the handles for tightness, then recheck them periodically. Beyond that, we've been nothing but pleased.

Customer Reviews
Great value, great product! - Eliana Martinez -
I read the reviews on this item and purchased it based on what I read. I have had it for over a month now, I believe and am very satisfied with it! I don't smell a thing, due to the double charcoal filters and it holds quite a bit of trimmings. It is attractive and doesn't take up too much space on the countertop. Great value for the price, I would recommend it to anyone looking for a compost pail!
