Great for small space

This bin works really well for us, handy to have two compartments. Compost bin is quite small but stops it from getting too grubby before emptying. The bin bags are a bit fiddly and we’re yet to figure out how the bag handle holes are meant to be used. But overall really pleased with this. Looks quite neat too!
Overall I like this bin! It is very easy to use and change the liners. Colour is nice and fits in my kitchen very well. My only complaint is I feel the food recycling bin in the top is too small but I do like that you can place the lid on the rim of top bin while you put you scraps of food in.
Great bin. This size still has lots of room to store waste for a small family. Love how you can separate and recycle, how you can take the compartments out and empty them. No need for bending with the height of the bin Just such an ideal useful great bin and well made.
The tall, slim shape of this is perfect for our needs and there aren't that many 3 way recycling bins in this shape that we could find. We tried another from a popular website that lasted less than 2 years. Thankfully, this bin seems to be made very well and is good quality. Reassuringly comes with a 10 year guarantee. Nice lid mechanism, good finish, lid and filter seem to be very good at keeping the smell inside, sturdy internal bins. It's pricey but I think this represents good value.
It's a very clever design, with features that just *work*. E.g. the ease with which the recycling rolls out and slots back, and the flexibility of the compost pot. Only qualm is I had thought the 'stone' colour would be more white than it is. In real life it is not white at all, but a greenish beige...
