[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My first KitchenAide compactor lasted over 20 years. I was pleased to have my new one very similar only quieter. It is easy to use and does a great job.
Pros: easy to use, Convenient Features, Performance
I would recommend this to a friend!

It is an awful design

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I guess I didn't know how good my maytag was until I bought a kitchenaid. So look it compacts garbage, sure, and does a great job at that, if you can stand the stink long enough to keep the garbage in the house to compact it, that is! The door doesn't seal, it is loose and let's the smells and odors out; it's cheap and not the quality of expect from KA. The fan and air freshener are a joke and its noisy so you don't want to leave it run forever. I do see why they put it in being the poor design. I wanted my maytag back but they already disposed of it!

Nice Looking and Easy to Use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We installed this compactor in our new home, have been using it about 6 weeks and we are happy with the appliance. Easily opens with the foot pedal and the compacting is also with a foot pedal instead of a knob. Easy to change the bag, too. One feature that would be a nice upgrade to the air freshener is to have it on a timer as opposed to it is either on (and loud) or off.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We purchased this compactor to replace a previous unit. Service had to be done within two weeks as a retaining pin in the foot button had fallen out as it had no retainer. This unit has a door release at the bottom made of plastic. When the door is closed the plastic bar makes a rattle which indicates how cheaply it is built. There is no way a designer for this product did not hear the sound but obviously did not care.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Good product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This replaced a Kitchenaid trash compactor that we owned for 19 years. I love having a trash compactor and the only reason I did not give this one 5 stars was because it does not seem as 'stable" when opened or closed compared to our old one. One advantage to the this compactor is it seems to hold much more trash before it needs to be compacted! Very much satisfied with this Kitchenaid compactor!

This product replaced an old one with same features.

Verified Purchase:Yes
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like this trash compactor - works great. I don't like the pull handle - it's too big and bulky for sleekness of unit - wish I had gotten the recessed handle model instead.
Pros: easy to use, Performance
Cons: Handle
